Qin Xuewu shouted low and said with a stern expression: "Do you think what you do can be hidden from the eyes of the family master? If you didn't start the trouble first, how could your arm be broken by others?"
"The head of the family didn't punish you because you already broke an arm. Go back quickly and don't mention this matter again!"
ah!
"Yes, I understand!" Qin Shuang was still very afraid of his grumpy grandfather.
Qin Xuening looked unwilling: "Is this the end of it? Is Xiaoshuang's broken arm in vain?"
Qin Xuewu glared at her and said in a deep voice: "Xue Ning, your protective temper needs to change. If it weren't for you, Xiao Shuang wouldn't have become so lawless!"
"Also, I think there is something strange about this kid Qin Fan, so please don't act rashly for the time being."
"yes!"
Qin Shuang lowered his head and responded.
But Qin Xuening looked like he was gnashing his teeth: Humph, Qin Fan, just wait for me, I will definitely avenge you!
Everyone dispersed.
At night, after dinner, Qin Fan's family gathered in the living room of the guest room.
Qin Yue'er watched the TV carelessly.
Li Nianci was eating snacks with Qin Yue'er, while Qin Jingye and Qin Fan's father and son sat face to face.
Qin Fan could tell that his father was worried and had something serious on his mind.
"Dad, what are you worried about?"
Qin Jingye glanced at him and said in a deep voice: "You were too impulsive today. You shouldn't be rude to your uncle and third grandfather!"
Qin Fan nodded: "Yes, I have realized my mistake."
No matter what, Qin Dezhi is Qin Jingye's brother and Qin Fan's uncle, and Qin Dezhi treats Qin Fan's family generally well.
Even though Qin Fan's cultivation reaches the sky, he is still just a junior, and Chinese civilization attaches great importance to these things.
"Alas!" Qin Jingye sighed and turned to watch what was on TV.
However, Qin Fan knew that his heart was not in the TV series at all.
"Dad, are you worried about the family annual meeting tomorrow?" Qin Fan asked tentatively.
Qin Jingye nodded, looked at Qin Fan and said: "Every family annual meeting is the most embarrassing time for our family. This time you won the championship in the family assessment and ruined Qin Rong and Qin Lei's friendship with Xiao.
The plans of the Ye family and the Su family, and tomorrow’s family annual meeting, they will definitely target our family in particular!"
Qin Fan smiled faintly: "Dad, if you are worried about this matter, then there is no need!"
"As long as I'm here, they can't even think of laughing at us!"
Qin Jingye frowned slightly and scolded: "Xiaofan, you must get rid of your habit of talking big!"
"It's all your arrogant words that have caused so many troubles today. You don't even understand the rules of the family annual meeting, so you dare to say such things. If this spreads out, you will definitely be laughed at by others!"
Qin Fan smiled slightly and stopped talking. He understood Qin Jingye's character and knew that it would be best not to say anything at this time.
Qin Jingye blamed him, but he couldn't bear to be too harsh. He seemed to be thinking of the family annual meeting tomorrow, lowered his head and sighed again.
As for the annual family gathering of the Qin family, Qin Fan accompanied Qin Jingye to attend it when he was a child, and he was very clear about the rules of the family annual gathering.
He was not bragging. With his current status and ability, a mere family annual meeting would not be able to trouble him at all.
The next day, New Year's Eve.
The Qin family opened its doors early in the morning to welcome guests. Red lanterns were hung high on both sides of the courtyard door, and red carpets were laid from the hall to the main entrance.
The entire Qin family was in a state of joy.
It is a sunny day today, and the air has become much fresher under the constant control.
There are more than a dozen tables arranged in two rows in the Qin family courtyard. Each seat has a name plate, including Qin Dezhi, Qin Dalu, Qin Mingde, Qin Shouyi and so on.
Upon closer inspection, almost all the second-generation descendants of the three generations of the Qin family have their own seats at a separate table, even Qin Jingye is no exception.
There is a large round table right in front that can accommodate dozens of people. On the table are the names of the three elders of the Qin family.
The children of the Qin family standing in the open space in the middle were not surprised at all. They were obviously used to this special annual meeting format.
Qin Fan, who followed Qin Jingye and stood at the back of the crowd, glanced at the two rows of seats and smiled lightly.
He knew that this unique annual family gathering, like the family assessment, was a tradition of the Qin family.
If the family assessment is said to be a test for young people, then this family annual meeting is a test for the elders of the Qin family.
Chinese society can be said to be a human society, which attaches great importance to relationships and connections. Even if you are a pauper, if you have great connections and connections, you will be respected by everyone.
It can be said that connections are actually a sign of a person's success.
Just like Qin Fan, as long as you are strong enough, even if he doesn't have to do anything, people like Chu Tianxiong, the Su family, the Ye family, etc. will lower their profile to please him.
The Qin family annual party is to see which family has the most New Year guests and has the highest status. Whoever has the best time this year will have a higher status in the Qin family.
Because Qin Jingye’s roots are far away in Dongzhou, he has a stubborn personality and is embarrassed to ask people to come and help him. Therefore, at the previous family annual gatherings, Qin Jingye’s table was always the only one with his family, not even one person.
There were no guests who came to pay New Year greetings. Compared with the crowded scene at other people's tables, it was extremely shabby.
Although Qin Guoliang has always taken special care of Qin Jingye's family, he still inevitably becomes the object of ridicule by everyone.
This has also become an eternal shame in Qin Jingye’s heart!
Therefore, when it came to the family annual meeting, he instinctively resisted.
If he didn't miss the old man, he wouldn't want to come back at all.
In the crowd, Qin Lei, Qin Fen, Qin Hao and others had already locked onto Qin Fan's figure behind them.
Several people sneered in their hearts: "Qin Fan, let me see how your family spends the annual family gathering today!"
Here, everyone started to communicate after paying New Year greetings to each other.
"Brother Mingde, I heard that your business is very good today. Even Jincheng Group and Qinghe Company have taken the initiative to seek cooperation with you. At today's family annual meeting, you will definitely become the number one member of our Qin family!" Qin Dalu walked up to
Qin Mingde's side was slapped with flattery.
Qin Mingde is the eldest son of Qin Fan's second grandfather and the father of Qin Fen. He is the most powerful person to compete with Qin Dezhi for the position of head of the family.
Qin Dalu is Qin Yu's father. Like his son, he is also a foodie. He has little power in the family. He likes to flatter others and be a mere wallflower.
After hearing Qin Dalu's words, people in Qin Wenruo's lineage came to flatter Qin Mingde one after another. If Qin Mingde can surpass Qin Dezhi and ascend to the position of head of the family in the future, people in their lineage will naturally follow suit.
Qin Mingde obviously benefited from everyone's flattery, but he was still somewhat self-aware.
"Haha, thank you all for your compliments, but compared with Brother Dezhi, I'm still far behind! I heard that Brother Dezhi will be promoted again next year, and the next step will be to go to the provincial department!"
After hearing Qin Mingde's words, everyone's eyes lit up.
In the entire Qin family, except for the old man Qin Guoliang, Qin Dezhi has the highest position and is the future pillar of the Qin family.
Although everyone has their own little thoughts, they always maintain the due respect for Qin Dezhi.
