Starting from the morning of this day, a rumor broke out in Qufu's room, saying that a lady from the Confucius Mansion was going to get engaged today.
In Qufu, ordinary news cannot arouse much interest from the public. At most, it can be chatted after a few words after dinner, and the heat will soon disappear. Anything that involves the Confucius Mansion is big news. The entire Qufu They are all very curious. Qufu is the hometown of Confucius, so the people of Qufu regard themselves as half of the Confucius Mansion and regard themselves as Confucian and Taoist children. However, with the development of the times, this idea gradually decreases, but Middle-aged and older people still stubbornly believe that Confucius is still a belief in their hearts, so the marriage of the eldest lady in the Confucius family became something that people in Qufu talked about very much.
For a time, this rumor became very widely circulated in the public. People were curious about which young talent he married Miss Kong's family. Then at noon, Chen Linfeng's name popped up. After coming out, his background also reached people's ears. He only said that this young man named Chen Linfeng was a wealthy businessman in the south and was very rich, but the news about Chen Wansan's descendants was not spread.
At this moment, the people in Qufu felt a little tired, because in their hearts, the identity of the direct children of Confucius, who were very transcendent and respected. Although they were a woman, they represented the most orthodox Kong family. With Kong Dejing He should not marry a businessman full of money-smelling, even an official. Of course, it is better to be a disciple with outstanding teachings of Confucius and Mencius.
They felt that Kong Dejing and Shen Linfeng were not a good match at all. Even if he was a rich businessman, no matter how rich he was, it would have defiled the reputation of Confucius' descendants.
Just because of this news of engagement, the people of Qufu were filled with grief, which was very worthless to the eldest lady of the Confucius Mansion. Opposition began to appear, but they were all subtle or whispered, and they were not widely publicized.
At night, there were more and more disharmonious voices in Qufu folk, almost reaching the point where everyone was talking about it. At this time, news was naturally received from the Kong Mansion, and Mr. Kong Da's face looked quite ugly.
"Who leaked the news?" Mr. Kong Da asked dissatisfiedly.
"The deacon is not considered to be leaked. There are many people in the Confucius Mansion that day when the Shen family gave the betrothal gift, and there are also many people in the Shen family. It is normal for one or two people to talk too much."
Deacon Kong snorted heavily and said, "A group of ignorant people who are fighting for trouble are worried."
After all, what the people know is limited. They just don't want Miss Kong's family to marry a businessman full of stinky money. But if they knew that they were the descendants of Chen Wansan, the richest man in Jiangnan, probably wouldn't have been too opposed, after all, When a person is rich to the point where he is indescribable, you can no longer simply say that he is a rich man, nor is he a pure businessman anymore.
At night, the lights are on.
Three cars drove out of the old house of Kong Mansion. The inside was filled with the Kong family, Mr. Kong Da, Kong Dejing's parents, and Kong Deru, who had become a casual cloud of wild cranes. The car came down from the mountain of the old house and went straight to the city. At night At eight o'clock, Kong Dejing and Shen Linfeng held an engagement dinner in the star-rated hotel in Qufu.
Originally, the two families meant that the two parties gathered together and simply put on a few tables of banquets and had a meal. After all, major issues had been decided long ago, but after the rumors during the day came out, Mr. Kong Da and Kong Dejing's My parents received many people who wanted to attend the engagement ceremony, basically all of whom were from Qufu, businessmen, and government.
In this way, if you want to buy a simple ceremony, it will become a grand ceremony, and the scale of several banquets will become a dinner party. This is the result of the Kong Mansion rejecting many people, otherwise there will be more people.
At the entrance of the hotel, Chen Linfeng stood outside with his hands behind his back and waiting for the arrival of the people from the Kong family. Xiang Que was mixed in his entourage and was wearing a Tang suit, standing behind Shen Linfeng.
"Your method is so dark. Xiang Que, I'm really worried about how dark the face of Mr. Kong Da will be at that time."
Xiang Que scratched his nose and said, "Why aren't you worried about whether your father's face will be dark?"
"Compared with my sad love story, it doesn't matter what color my father's face will turn into. Besides, this is Qufu and not Hangzhou, so we can't lose it even if we are embarrassed. However, the Confucius Mansion is really going to have a headache. "Chen Linfeng turned his head and whispered: "Hey, Mr. Kong Da, you should know that you are making trouble behind this. Did he tear your heart alive?"
"Even if there is nothing happening today, he still thinks so, it doesn't matter."
After more than ten minutes, Chen Linfeng received the news from Kong Dejing that the car from the Kong mansion was about to arrive at the hotel. He turned around and said, "Tell me, the person is about to arrive."
A few minutes later, the three cars stopped in front of the hotel one by one, Chen Tianchang and Shen Linfeng walked down the steps together and took the initiative to meet them.
But at this time, many cars began to drive towards this side at the same time, and they all stopped in the hotel parking lot. Then everyone got off, and what was amazing was that all the people had on their arms. There were black cloth tied, and many people even wore white hats around their waists.
These people all understood at a glance that they had encountered a funeral.
The group had just got out of the car and drove a few more cars into the parking lot on the way. When the car door opened and people got out, many people were a little confused because the people who came here were still doing funerals and people from both sides of the front and back Neither greeted each other, it was obvious that these were two groups of people.
Mr. Kong Da suddenly frowned: "Where is the hotel manager?"
"Mr. Kong Da, you are looking for me." Then the manager came over.
"What's going on? Is it a feast for funeral?" Mr. Kong asked with a very ugly face.
"It's normal reception, they all booked it in the morning."
"Do you know that we are here today, right? Why do you still take on a funeral banquet when you know?"
The manager said helplessly: "Mr. Kong Da, if the hotel opens the door and does business, you can't push the business out, right? This season is the off-season. If we don't do any business, where will the profits of that year be made. ah"
Mr. Kong Da snorted heavily, and at this time, Chen Tianchang said very realistically: "It's okay, we do ours, they do theirs, they are not in the same hall, so they do not interfere with each other."
As soon as Chen Tianchang finished speaking, two teams of people walked over from both sides of the road at about the same time. When they saw this, they were stunned.
These two groups of people were doing funerals, and there were still quite a few people.
At this time, not only Mr. Kong Da, but also Chen Tianchang's expression was wrong. We held an engagement banquet and surrounded by a group of people who were responsible for the funeral of the dead?
