Xiao Chen's "very beautiful" was of course a superficial compliment. You can't call someone ugly, right?
What's more, from the perspective of ordinary people, Hua Qingyao is indeed very beautiful.
But what Xiao Chen didn't expect was that Ye Zhengbei actually had something in his words, and there was no other purpose in introducing Hua Qingyao.
Two men and women who have never met before, if you let them communicate in the future, isn't the meaning of matchmaking obvious?
Xiao Chen understood and was undoubtedly speechless.
Ye Zhengbei is quite old, and he doesn't know what is going on in his head.
Ye Yufei next to her felt bad when she heard this.
She had told Ye Zhengbei before that she could rest assured only when she saw Xiao Chen get married and start a family.
Ye Zhengbei wouldn't plan to marry Xiao Chen just because of these words, right?
If others can understand, Hua Yongan, Hua Qingyao and his daughter will naturally understand too.
Hua Qingyao glanced at Xiao Chen, her expression uncertain.
Hua Yongan asked doubtfully: "Mr. Ye, he is..."
Ye Zhengbei smiled and said: "He is also half a child of the Ye family and is very outstanding. I will tell you more about it later. Now take a seat!"
…
At the dinner, Ye Yufei was of course the protagonist and attracted everyone's attention.
After all, the addition of an eldest lady to the Ye family out of thin air will have an impact on many people.
When Ye Zhengbei announced Ye Yufei's identity, he only said that he was a living child, and he would definitely not tell the secret back then.
As for the relationship between the Hua family and the Ye family, it is like the relationship between the Xia family and the Jiang family.
The Ye family is powerful, and the Hua family has received a lot of favors from the Ye family, and is considered a vassal family of the Ye family.
Xiao Chen sat next to Ye Yufei and attracted attention from time to time.
After all, he is not from the Ye family, so he will inevitably be discriminated against.
Most people think to themselves, it’s just that Ye Yufei has the blood of the Ye family, why should an outsider receive such good treatment?
Xiao Chen chose to ignore this.
He didn't care what the Ye family thought of him.
After the dinner, Ye Zhengbei dismissed everyone except the Hua family father and daughter, saying he had something to discuss with them.
Xiao Chen sent Ye Yufei back to her room to rest.
"Xiaochen, grandpa may be preparing to marry you!"
Ye Yufei told Xiao Chen the whole story, looking a little embarrassed.
"So that's it!" Xiao Chen suddenly realized why Ye Zhengbei was so focused on this.
"What are you going to do?" Ye Yufei asked.
Xiao Chen said: "If you want to see me get married and start a business, I'm afraid you have to wait a long, long time!"
"It doesn't matter, I can wait as long as I want!" Ye Yufei smiled happily.
"You...forget it, don't talk about these useless things for now!"
Xiao Chen shook his head helplessly.
What he said is possible for a long time, forever and ever.
After all, for him who once stood at the top of the immortal world, his lifespan is endless and time is the least valuable thing.
After sending Ye Yufei back to her room, Xiao Chen also went back to his room.
In the next two days, Xiao Chen stayed at Ye's house to accompany Ye Yufei.
However, Ye Zhengbei often chatted with Ye Yufei to make things happen. Of course he would not accompany her at such times, so he planned to go out for a walk.
The prosperity of the Magic City is second only to Yanjing, and there should be some places here that interest him.
…
In the pedestrian street near Shanghai University, a frail girl in cotton-padded clothes knelt on her knees, looking pitiful.
On the ground in front of her were a pile of old and worn-out items, broken copper bells, yellowed parchment scrolls, old daggers, a bronze toad, etc.
In addition, besides these miscellaneous items, there is a small sign with a few lines of words written on it.
The general meaning is that my father is seriously ill and urgently needs money for medical treatment, so he sells some of his family's treasures in the hope of raising some life-saving money.
Most people like to join in the fun, and the girl’s behavior attracted many people to watch.
But it was just a crowd watching, no one came forward to buy anything.
"Oh, poor child, why didn't anyone help her? Even if these items have no value, they should still be out of kindness?"
A woman sighed, opened her wallet and touched it, as if she wanted to lend a helping hand.
But soon, someone kindly reminded: "Don't be fooled, there are many scammers these days, maybe they are just pretending to be pitiful!"
"That's right, I've seen even more pitiful people. They don't deserve sympathy!"
"That's right. Besides, what are these things she is selling? If they are antiques, that's fine. The key is that they are all tattered and the prices are so expensive!"
When the woman heard this, she said unhappily: "Things are secondary, the key is the mind, you know nothing!"
"We have good intentions to advise you, but why are you still cursing?" someone said angrily.
"Don't worry about me, I just have a lot of money!" the woman said, taking out a stack of hundred-dollar bills and about to hand it to the girl.
To spend such a generous amount shows that he also has some financial resources.
Seeing this, the girl hesitated and said: "Mom, please pick a few things, otherwise I can't accept the money!"
"Okay, I want...this fan!"
The woman picked up a paper folding fan.
When everyone saw this, they shook their heads.
Such paper folding fans cost a few yuan at roadside stalls, so they are not a rarity at all.
"Daughter, please take the money, there's only so much I can do to help you!"
The woman sighed.
This money is definitely not enough to treat the disease.
But she can only do so much.
"Thank you, ma'am!"
The girl burst into tears of gratitude and took the money.
But just then.
"Wait!"
Two arrogant young men with yellow hair pushed away the crowd, walked over, and snatched the money from the woman's hand.
"You...what are you doing? Robbery?" the woman yelled angrily.
"Who cares about your poor money?" The yellow-haired young man arrogantly threw the stack of money on the woman and sneered, "Our young master has ordered that no one is allowed to help this little girl."
"Your young master?"
When the woman heard this, her expression changed slightly.
Did this girl offend someone?
She just had some spare money in her hands, her family had no background, and she couldn't afford to offend those wealthy families.
"If you want to meddle in other people's business, you have to weigh the consequences. Take your money and get out of here right away, or you'll be left with nothing to eat!" the yellow-haired young man threatened.
The woman hesitated for a moment, then shook her head helplessly and left quickly.
You can be a good person, but you have to act within your capabilities!
"Hey, I told that woman to stop meddling in her own business, but she didn't listen!" Someone gloated.
"Tan Yu'er, accept the reality. Unless you ask our young master for help, your consumptive father will have to wait for death!" The yellow-haired young man turned to the girl and said viciously.
When the girl in cotton-padded clothes heard this, she looked pale and bit her lips so hard that she was about to bleed.
At this moment, she was helpless and confused.
The only way to survive has been blocked, what should she do?
"Hey, these two arrogant bitches are bullying a weak girl. How shameless are they?"
A sarcastic voice sounded.
Everyone looked around and saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl in a white down jacket walking out and sneered at the two yellow-haired youths.
"Who are you?" the yellow-haired young man said arrogantly.
"Why do I have to tell you?" the girl in the down jacket hummed.
The two yellow hairs looked at each other and said in a deep voice: "Don't you also want to meddle in other people's business?"
"So what?"
"Haha, do you know who our young master is?"
"tell me the story?"
"I might scare you to death if I tell you!" the yellow-haired young man said coldly, "Our young master is the son of the Meng family!"
"Meng family?"
When the people around him heard this, their expressions changed slightly.
The Meng family has great influence in the Magic City, and is even more dominant in the East City area. No wonder they dare to be so arrogant.
"Is the Meng family great?"
The girl in the down jacket was a little disdainful when she heard this.
Immediately, she squatted on the stall and picked, and finally picked the bronze toad.
"I want this. Do you have a bank account? I'll transfer it to you!"
she asked the girl in cotton-padded clothes.
"Yes, there is, but..."
The girl was a little hesitant, afraid of hurting the girl in the down jacket.
"Don't be afraid, these two bastards don't dare to touch me!" the girl said confidently.
The girl thought to herself that the girl should have the confidence to say this, so she no longer hesitated and prepared to report her card number to the girl.
But at this moment, another young man in white shirt came over, squatted next to the stall, took a look, and finally picked up the parchment.
