Chapter 113 Past Events

In the early morning, the morning dew reflects the sunlight, the air is fresh, and the birds sing crisply.

“You do this every day here?”

Jiang Congwen followed Chen Mo and practiced Ba Duan Jin slowly.

Chen Mo finished a recovery motion and slowly exhaled, "Strengthen your body, regulate your qi and cure diseases."

"Are you overwhelmed so quickly?" Jiang Congwen asked tentatively.

Chen Mo glanced at Jiang Congwen and said disdainfully, "He is full of energy and has a strong temper."

"What about what you did just now..." Jiang Congwen was puzzled.

He saw that Chen Mo performed one of the Eight-Section Brocade movements for two extra beats, and all men would notice this effect.

Chen Mo said calmly: "Keep improving and prepare for a rainy day."

Jiang Congwen thought about it and felt that it made sense, "Then I'll practice it if I have nothing to do."

Those who have experienced it know that men are at a disadvantage in certain things.

Basically, you can only be proud for a while, but you can't be strong all your life.

If you want to be successful for a longer period of time, you should pay attention to the maintenance of your body.

Chen Mo shook his head, "You don't need to. Even if you practice, it will be useless."

"." Jiang Congwen.

"What's so great about having a girlfriend?" Jiang Congwen said unhappily.

Chen Mo nodded. "Having a girlfriend is nothing special, but for someone like me, having such a beautiful girlfriend is indeed amazing."

Jiang Congwen tutted, "Look at how you show off. If someone didn't know, they would have thought you had married her."

Chen Mo looked "surprised" and asked, "How did you know that Hongdou and I would go back to Zibo to meet her parents in a few days?"

"." Jiang Congwen.

"Are you so quick?" Jiang Congwen couldn't believe it.

He had been running for so many years but had never reached this point, but Chen Mo saw the light in just a short time.

Chen Mo smiled and said, "Not really, not really. We plan to get married next year, have a baby the year after, have one in two years, and two in three years."

"What happened? What are you talking about?"

Xu Hongdou came down from the second floor, wearing a lavender casual sweatshirt and her hair tied up neatly. She looked fresh, elegant and full of energy.

"Are you two going to get married?" Jiang Congwen asked.

"What?! Who's getting married?!" Chen Nanxing just happened to come down from upstairs, and when he heard Jiang Congwen's words, his tone was filled with shock.

Chen Nanxing looked at Xu Hongdou in disbelief, "Did you two cause a death?"

Xu Hongdou was confused. "What the hell are you talking about?"

"Chen Mo said he wanted to meet your parents, get married next year, have a baby in two years, and have two children in three years." Jiang Congwen repeated.

"Really?" Chen Nanxing looked at the two of them.

"What's so true? How come I didn't know I was getting married?" Xu Hongdou said unhappily.

"You want to have one child every two years and two children every three years? Just let him have the children himself."

Hearing this, Jiang Congwen looked at Chen Mo with interest.

"Cough." Chen Mo coughed lightly. Who knew that he would meet the person involved just for bragging?

Chen Mo said calmly, "It's fine to have two children in four years. We can discuss it later."

Xu Hongdou walked up to Chen Mo and asked with a smile, "Who are you going to marry? Have you discussed it with anyone?"

Chen Mo said seriously, "I'm planning to come over in a few days to discuss it with Auntie."

Xu Hongdou glared, "Have you proposed? Have I agreed? Just discuss it."

Chen Mo's eyes lit up, "Then I'll get ready and propose to you before I go to your house?"

Xu Hongdou gently pinched Chen Mo's ear and said, "This time when you go to my house, you just go there to have a meal and meet my parents. There is no other intention. Don't make things more dramatic for yourself. Do you hear me?"

Chen Mo moved closer to Xu Hongdou, and at the same time, he covered Xu Hongdou's hand that was pinching his ear with his hand, and whispered, "Wife, there are outsiders here, please give me some face."

Xu Hongdou blinked when she heard that, and forgot her habit for a moment. It was not her fault.

Chen Mo gave a look, and Xu Hongdou changed from pinching her earlobes to covering her ears, making it look like the two of them were having an intimate interaction.

Chen Nanxing "complained": "You two are done, you are showing your affection early in the morning while talking."

Hearing this, Xu Hongdou naturally withdrew her hand and looked at Chen Nanxing, "I'm a little hungry, have you had breakfast?"

Chen Nanxing complained: "I didn't eat it, but I'm almost full of dog food."

"Okay, then come with me to eat some more." Xu Hongdou smiled and took Chen Nanxing's arm.

"What about you guys, have you eaten yet?"

Chen Mo waved his hand, "We've already eaten, go eat now, the food is kept warm in the pot in the kitchen."

"Okay." Xu Hongdou nodded and went to the kitchen with Chen Nanxing.

Jiang Congwen said, "I'd better be more careful when bragging in the future, especially if I'm not bragging to people I know."

Chen Mo didn't care. "What do you know? This is just a subtle influence."

"I've been saying this for a long time, Hongdou is used to hearing it, and she's mentally prepared. If I really bring up marriage one day, it won't be abrupt, and everything will seem natural."

Jiang Congwen took a breath and asked, "Are you so cunning?"

Chen Mo said unhappily, "Do you know how to talk? I call this laying the groundwork in advance! It's called strategy!"

"Hongdou is my girlfriend, and I am going to get married, openly and aboveboard."

Jiang Congwen thought about it and thought, "Well, you are awesome."

In fact, Jiang Congwen still admires Chen Mo a little.

It took Chen Mo longer to enter the progress bar than him. He chased his girlfriend in one month, but Chen Mo seemed to have taken two or three months.

But after entering the progress bar, Chen Mo's progress was much faster than his. Now he was about to formally visit his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Is this the case of sharpening the knife before chopping wood? Jiang Congwen couldn't help but ponder.

"Let's have tea."

Chen Mo went to the tea room and got out a set of tea sets, rinsed the cups and prepared to make tea.

Jiang Congwen sat down at the table and said with a smile, "You really live like a retired old man."

"I exercise in the morning, bask in the sun, drink tea, listen to music, and take a walk."

Chen Mo made the tea, took a sip leisurely, "This is called slowing down and enjoying life."

"I can't slow down. I have to prepare for the final show right away when I get back."

Jiang Congwen feels that being busy is more fulfilling and he doesn't dwell on random things.

Everyone has different states at different stages of life.

Jiang Congwen, who has no love, now just wants to concentrate on his career.

But for Chen Mo, this period is a rare leisure time.

After getting married, he should start to slowly take over the family company. By then, he will have to shoulder both the family and career, and life will not be as relaxed and leisurely as it is now.

"This show will have guest singers for the finals, right? Have you decided who to invite?" Chen Mo asked.

The final of "I Am the King of Singers" is divided into two rounds.

In the first round, each contestant invites guest singers to sing with them, and the last two are eliminated.

The remaining five contestants in the second round will each sing a song to determine the final ranking.

Chen Mo doesn't watch every episode of the show, but he still understands the format and rules, and he needs to know the market trend.

Actually, Chen Mo was not completely idle after coming to Yunmiao Village. Although Chen Huaisong was in charge of Fuyun Entertainment, Chen Mo would have a copy of the company's weekly report and operation project status information.

Taking over is not something you can do just like that. You have to be able to step up at the critical moment.

Therefore, Chen Mo has always been aware of and paying attention to the company's operations and industry developments to keep abreast of the latest developments.

"I found Sister Nan. We had just worked together on a show and were quite familiar with each other," said Jiang Congwen.

Chen Mo thought for a moment and said, "I have a song here that's suitable for you two to sing together, but the key can't be lowered. See if you can sing it then. If not, ask Sister Nan to lower the key and sing with you."

High-pitched female voices have an advantage over male voices.

"Another sad song?" Jiang Congwen asked subconsciously.

There was no way around it. The songs Chen Mo gave him were always very "specific", all sad love songs.

So Jiang Congwen thought that this time it should be a love song sung by a man and a woman, after all, the songs Chen Mo gave to Lin Nanxi were all of this kind.

"Not this time." Chen Mo shook his head.

"What is that?" Jiang Congwen's eyes lit up.

I’m really tired of singing love songs all the time, and I want to change my style and taste.

Chen Mo explained, "It's a warm and encouraging song. I'll give it to you later. Take a look at it yourself."

Jiang Congwen couldn't wait and said, "Don't wait, take it out now and have a look."

"Why are you in such a hurry? The tea has just been brewed. You can bring it back when you go back." Chen Mo picked up the teacup calmly and drank the tea.

"Who would want to drink tea when there is a new song? You can drink tea anytime." Jiang Congwen drank the tea in one gulp.

Seeing this, Chen Mo couldn't help but sigh: "If Master Ma were here, he would say you are a bull chewing a peony."

"Who is Master Ma?" Jiang Congwen didn't know him.

"Uncle Ma is also a tenant of the courtyard and likes to study tea culture." Chen Mo introduced.

Jiang Congwen nodded and said, "If you write a song about tea culture, I might be interested."

"A song about tea culture?"

Chen Mo murmured, and a light melody sounded in his mind:
[The mountain spring meanders on the surface. From a long, long time ago, I had a childish face. The spring water seeps into the mineral layer rock, and the camphor tree seedlings planted by my grandfather are on it.]

Chen Mo was interested in a rap-style singing that he rarely did.

"Let's go get the song." Chen Mo finished his tea in one gulp.

Jiang Congwen didn't understand and asked curiously, "Huh? Didn't you say you'd finish your tea?"

"Who would want to drink tea when there's a new song? You can drink tea anytime." Chen Mo stood up and walked out.

"Didn't I just say that? Who said there was no rush?" Jiang Congwen muttered and hurried to catch up.

Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing, who were in the restaurant, saw the two people crossing the courtyard and going upstairs.

"What happened to them?" Chen Nanxing asked curiously.

"Chen Mo has an idea for a new song, right?" Xu Hongdou was peeling eggs calmly.

"How do you know?" Chen Nanxing looked at Xu Hongdou curiously.

"Only music can make him so positive." Xu Hongdou said with understanding.

Chen Nanxing thought about it and shook his head, "No, it's not just music."

Xu Hongdou raised her eyebrows slightly, "Oh? Is there anything else I don't know?"

"And you." Chen Nanxing said seriously.

"From what you do every night, I can tell that you are confused by your own actions."

Xu Hongdou blushed and quickly stuffed the freshly peeled egg into Chen Nanxing's mouth, "Eat eggs, they are nutritious."

In the next two days, Chen Nanxing took Jiang Congwen to visit the ancient city.

During this period, Chen Nanxing would go to the ancient city or nearby towns to explore restaurants from time to time, so he was basically familiar with all the delicious and fun places.

After Chen Nanxing took Jiang Congwen to visit several scenic spots, they prepared to go looking for food.

“Don’t go to Renmin Road and Fuxing Road. These two roads are reserved for tourists. They are crowded and expensive.”

"We went to the Beimen Vegetable Market to find food. There are old shops patronized by locals there. The food is delicious and the prices are affordable."

"Okay, I'll follow your instructions." Jiang Congwen said with a smile.

"No problem. I'll make sure you gain a few pounds when you go back." Chen Nanxing promised.

"That won't do. I have to go back and record the show. I make a living by my looks." Jiang Congwen shook his head.

Chen Nanxing glanced at him and said, "You make a living by being shameless, right?"

"Am I not more handsome than before?" Jiang Congwen widened his eyes.

"Yes, I'm a little thinner and better looking than before," Chen Nanxing said truthfully.

"But being handsome is relative. You are more handsome than before, but you are still far from being able to make a living by your looks."

"Otherwise, you've been walking around for quite a while, but no one recognizes you."

"It's just because I'm low-key, and my glasses hide my good looks." Jiang Congwen retorted in disbelief.

He wore a pair of glasses and a baseball cap today.

"Why don't you take off your glasses and we walk for ten minutes to see if anyone recognizes you?" Chen Nanxing suggested.

Jiang Congwen thought about it, shook his head and said, "Forget it, it would be bad if it caused a commotion later."

Chen Nanxing smiled and ruthlessly exposed him: "You are afraid that no one will recognize you later, and you won't be able to deceive yourself."

Jiang Congwen certainly didn't admit it, "This place is small, it's normal if you really can't recognize me."

Chen Nanxing nodded, "Okay, I've even found an excuse."

"." Jiang Congwen.

"Is it because I said you gained weight the day I first arrived that you are 'holding a grudge' and intending to 'retaliate'?" Jiang Congwen thought of a "truth".

Chen Nanxing shook his head calmly, "No."

Jiang Congwen did not give up and said, "This is possible."

Chen Nanxing said seriously: "I really don't have this."

Seeing Chen Nanxing's genuine look, Jiang Congwen gave up and sighed, "If there is no such thing, then there is no such thing."

Chen Nanxing suddenly thought of something, "Hey, why do I feel like Nana seems to be avoiding you these past two days?"

"Really?" Jiang Congwen didn't pay attention.

"Well, after you came, Nana went back to her room immediately after she came back." Chen Nanxing noticed it obviously.

"Even if I can't make a living by my looks, there's no need for you to hide from me, right?" Jiang Congwen was "angry and unwilling."

"I'm serious with you. Nana was fine when she came back that day, but after you recognized her, she seemed a little abnormal." Chen Nanxing recalled.

Jiang Congwen thought for a moment and asked, "Didn't she tell you before that she used to be a live broadcaster?"

"No." Chen Nanxing shook his head. "Nana said she used to work as a cashier in a coffee shop in Shanghai. Later, she was laid off and came out to travel. She came here by accident and liked it so she stayed."

Jiang Congwen knew the reason after hearing this. "She is not hiding from me. She is hiding from her past."

"In the past?" Chen Nanxing was puzzled.

"You can search her previous account ID, called 'Nana who loves singing', and you should be able to find out some of the things that happened to her in the past," said Jiang Congwen.

Upon hearing this, Chen Nanxing took out his phone and searched it, a little surprised: "More than five million fans?!"

Jiang Congwen nodded and recalled, "I remember that she mainly covered some classic Cantonese songs before, and she was also a big anchor in the music section."

Chen Nanxing browsed through the relevant hot information and was stunned, "Showing off wealth, defrauding donations?!"
