"The Zhang family will break off the engagement on their own?" Mr. Song looked at Lin Yuan as if he were a monster. He looked at Lin Yuan for more than a minute before he chuckled and said, "If you can really make the Zhang family break off the engagement on their own, you and Xiaomeng
I will not get involved in the matter."
It is true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. Mr. Song said it easily, but he really scorned Lin Yuan in his heart. The Zhang family regretted the marriage. This matter is simply a scandal in the world. Even if the Song family might regret the marriage, Zhang
There is no possibility of home either.
In a sense, the Zhang family is much weaker than the Song family. Although this marriage contract is considered a marriage between both parties, it is actually the Zhang family that benefits more, not the Song family.
There are many wealthy families in Yanjing, and there are countless families that are more powerful than the Zhang family on one hand. The reason why Mr. Song chose to marry the Zhang family is due to many considerations. On the one hand, the Zhang family has great influence in Yanjing and even the entire Xinglin world.
They all have quite a lot of influence, and they can speak well in front of many big shots in Yanjing. I dare not say how big the Zhang family’s face is, but many times other old people will not care about some small things because of the Zhang family’s face.
Too careless.
In layman's terms, the Zhang family is like a virtuous person who is eager for justice and justice. Although they may not have much real power, their reputation is very high. As a Xinglin family, the Zhang family has saved countless people. Yanjing definitely owes the Zhang family a lot of favors.
Shao, even if no one is willing to help the Zhang family, absolutely no one is willing to offend the Zhang family.
Another thing is that the Zhang family is not a political family. The Zhang family has great influence and a profound foundation, but no one is involved in politics. To be precise, no one from the Zhang family holds high-ranking positions in the real power departments. This ensures that the Zhang family will not be tabooed by others.
Song Lao was the founding general. Although he has retired, his prestige is not small. Song Fangcheng, several of the sons of the Song family, are now feudal officials of a province. Although Song Fangming and Song Fangtong are not as good as Song Fangcheng, they are now comparable to deputy ministerial level officials.
In this way, the influence of the Song family can be seen. If the Song family marries with the powerful family again at this time, it will really become a clique with a big tail. As the saying goes, anything good in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. The Song family is really
Being too high-profile may not necessarily be a good thing.
By marrying the Zhang family, the Song family can use the influence of the Zhang family without worrying about being tabooed by others. It can be said to be a good choice. In addition, Zhang Lianyu has a good reputation in the eyes of the older generation, and Mr. Song also appreciates it.
But compared to the Song family, the benefits of marriage between the Zhang family and the Song family are much greater. Because the Zhang family is a medical family, few people work in real power departments. At most, some people enter departments such as the Central Health Commission and serve as
The leader's health doctor, so although the Zhang family has sufficient background, it seems to lack confidence at certain times. Once married to the Song family, the Zhang family is equivalent to relying on the Song family, and has a lot of conveniences in many aspects.
In addition, the Zhang family is originally weaker than the Song family. Such agreements are usually made by the stronger party who may renege on it. I have never seen the weaker party renege on it. If Mr. Song really reneges on the engagement between Zhang Lianyu and Song Xiaomeng,
, although the Zhang family is unhappy, there is nothing they can do about it. At most, Mr. Song's reputation will be damaged. If the Zhang family goes back on his word and loses Mr. Song's face, Mr. Song will have a way to make the Zhang family pay the price.
It is precisely for this reason that when Mr. Song heard Lin Yuan say that if the Zhang family regretted their marriage, he was not angry, but laughed. In fact, he was laughing at Lin Yuan for not overestimating his abilities.
"Do you always mean what you say?" Lin Yuan didn't find it funny, but asked seriously.
"What I say out loud is always a drop of spit," Mr. Song snorted.
"Okay." Lin Yuan looked at Mr. Song and said seriously: "But I hope you will always promise me. If the Zhang family really takes the initiative to request to terminate the engagement, I hope you will not blame the Zhang family."
"Okay, I promise you."
Mr. Song was very happy. He did not think that Lin Yuan had the ability to make the Zhang family regret their marriage. Even if the Zhang family was not as good as the Song family, it was still a wealthy family in Yanjing. How could Lin Yuan be able to shake a family that had stood for hundreds of years?
Lin Yuan is really capable of making the Zhang family regret their marriage, which also shows that Lin Yuan has the qualifications to be recognized by him.
"But there is something I must explain." Mr. Song snorted coldly: "I can't wait indefinitely for you to make the Zhang family regret the engagement, so there must be time. If the Zhang family asks to fulfill the engagement, I won't
May block."
"As long as the Zhang family doesn't take the initiative to ask for the fulfillment of the engagement, you can't force Xiaomeng. If the Zhang family takes the initiative to ask for the fulfillment of the engagement, it proves that I failed. When the time comes, I will persuade Xiaomeng not to embarrass you.
But during this period, you cannot restrict my relationship with Xiaomeng." Lin Yuandao.
"Okay, I promise you." Mr. Song nodded.
"Thank you, old man." Lin Yuan thanked him hurriedly.
"You don't need to thank me. If you are really capable of preventing the Zhang family from coming to ask for the fulfillment of the engagement, there is no need for me to chase my granddaughter out." Mr. Song waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can go.
.”
Lin Yuan nodded to Mr. Song, and then carefully exited the backyard. Song Xiaomeng, who was waiting in the house, hurriedly greeted him and asked anxiously: "Lin Yuan, how are you? My grandfather is not in trouble."
You?"
"No, Mr. Song is very easy to talk to." Lin Yuan smiled.
"Easy to talk to?" Song Xiaomeng looked at Lin Yuan with a face filled with surprise. When would her grandfather be able to talk to him well? If her grandfather was easy to talk to, she wouldn't have to be so worried.
"Let's go out and talk." Lin Yuan said with a smile: "Since I'm here, I'll stop by to visit Mr. Yun."
"I'll go with you." Song Xiaomeng said. As she spoke, she and Lin Yuan walked out together. When they came to the yard outside, Song Xiaojia was still there. She was surprised to see Lin Yuan and Song Xiaomeng coming out hand in hand.
His mouth opened wide: "You came out fine, and you still... held hands. Did my grandpa agree?"
"Just wait and call me brother-in-law. Let me tell you, I'm not as easy to talk to as Xiaomeng. If you don't get older or younger in the future, I will spank you." Lin Yuan joked with a smile.
"Tch!" Song Xiaojia glanced at Lin Yuan with disdain: "It's just you, don't blame me for not reminding you, I only need one finger to deal with you."
"Really? Let's wait and see." Lin Yuan chuckled and pulled Song Xiaomeng directly out the door.
After walking out of the Song family, Song Xiaomeng asked Lin Yuan anxiously: "Lin Yuan, what did you and my grandfather say? Did my grandfather really agree with us..."
"How is that possible?" Lin Yuan chuckled and said, "However, although your grandfather did not agree, he promised me that if the Zhang family takes the initiative to regret the marriage, he will agree to our affairs."
"The Zhang family took the initiative to regret the marriage?" Song Xiaomeng was stunned, and the original hope in her eyes was instantly shattered: "How could the Zhang family take the initiative to regret the marriage? This is much harder than making my grandfather change his mind."
"It all depends on people." Lin Yuan said with a smile: "Maybe the Zhang family really might break the contract."
In the eyes of Song Xiaomeng and Mr. Song, it may be extremely difficult to make the Zhang family regret their marriage, but in Lin Yuan's view, it is definitely much easier to make the Zhang family regret their marriage than to make Mr. Song change his mind. On the one hand, he has something else in his hands.
Half a prescription. If Zhang Yuanqing's situation is similar to what Hou Jicheng said, and the Zhang family has the original half prescription, in order for Zhang Yuanqing to live a few more years, the Zhang family will most likely beg him.
Although this half of the prescription may not necessarily make the Zhang family directly regret the engagement, it is still possible for the Zhang family to delay the fulfillment of the engagement for a period of time. With enough time, he will be well prepared.
Furthermore, there are many things that he cannot do when facing the Song family. Because of the relationship between Song Xiaomeng and Song Fangcheng, he and the Song family are already inextricably linked. Naturally, it is difficult for him to directly target the Song family. But the Zhang family is different.
Now, he has no burden to directly target the Zhang family. Even if he is not the Zhang family's opponent now, in the future, as long as there is enough time, everything is possible.
Seeing how confident Lin Yuan was, Song Xiaomeng looked at Lin Yuan in confusion and asked, "Lin Yuan, do you have something to rely on?"
"I have inquired about the situation of the old man of the Zhang family. It is very likely that I have something that the Zhang family needs in my hand. This thing may be able to make the old man of the Zhang family live a few more years." Lin Yuan did not hide anything about Song Xiaomeng and directly told Song Xiaomeng.
I talked about Danfang’s story once.
Song Xiaomeng's eyes lit up after hearing this, and there was joy on her face, and she said happily: "If what you said is true, maybe you can really use this matter to ask the Zhang family to regret their marriage."
"It is unrealistic to regret a marriage. The bigger the family, the more they value face. The old man of the Zhang family proposed this matter himself. He may not regret the marriage just to live a few more years." Lin Yuan shook his head and said, compared to Song
Xiaomeng's optimism means he takes a deeper look at this matter.
Zhang Zhengyue and Zhang Yuanqing's sons may agree to this matter, but it is unlikely that Zhang Yuanqing will agree. Zhang Yuanqing is already over eighty years old and has already known his destiny. At this age, his face is sometimes more important than his life.
important.
"Although it is unlikely that the Zhang family will directly regret the marriage, it is still possible for the Zhang family to delay the fulfillment of the engagement for three to five years. With three to five years, I may have the strength to make the Zhang family retreat." Lin Yuan
road.
"I hope the Zhang family will agree to break off the engagement directly." Song Xiaomeng said. Although Lin Yuan said that he was very sure that the Zhang family could postpone the fulfillment of the engagement for three to five years, Song Xiaomeng did not think that Lin Yuan could do it in three to five years.
Confront the Zhang family.
Although she is very optimistic about Lin Yuan, it is almost impossible for Lin Yuan to compete with the Zhang family in just three to five years. The Zhang family has been standing for hundreds of years to have its current influence and status. Lin Yuan alone can only take three to five years.
How could Nian compete with a century-old family? This would be no less difficult than directly asking his grandfather to change his mind.
"Don't worry, it all depends on people." Lin Yuan knew what Song Xiaomeng was thinking and shook Song Xiaomeng's hand vigorously. Although he also knew the difficulty of this matter, with enough time, there would be more possibilities.
While talking, the two of them arrived at the door of Yun's home. The two soldiers at the door of Yun's home knew Song Xiaomeng, and one of them also knew Lin Yuan. When they saw Song Xiaomeng and Lin Yuan coming, one of them stopped Lin Yuan and Song Xiaomeng, and the other
