Qi Guofan was the head of the Qi family and had the absolute right to speak. He confirmed Qin Haodong's identity. This was the final word. Qi Yuhu did not dare to say anything anymore.
Qi Yulong was overjoyed and said: "Master, I think we should propose marriage immediately and finalize the marriage between our two families as soon as possible."
Qi Yuhu said: "Even if our Qi family wants to recognize this marriage, so many things have just happened, so it is always inappropriate to come to propose marriage now, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone rang, and it was Qi Yubiao's call.
Among the second generation of the Qi family, Qi Yubiao is in charge of the entire Qi family's intelligence system, so everyone else's phones must be turned off during meetings, with him being the only exception.
Qi Yubiao glanced at the phone number on his mobile phone, and then pressed the answer button. Two minutes later, he hung up the phone, raised his head and said to Qi Guofan: "Master, we just got the latest information, the Zhao family, the Wei family, and the Han family.
The head of the family came to propose marriage to Chu Xuanyue in person."
Qi Guofan's expression changed and he asked: "Those three old foxes came to propose marriage. What kind of marriage did they propose?"
Qi Yubiao said: "Chu Xuanyue only has a son, Qin Haodong, so of course they proposed marriage to Qin Haodong.
The Zhao family proposes marriage to Zhao Qingwu, the Han family proposes marriage to Han Jieyu, and the Wei family proposes marriage to Wei Yanran, all of whom want to marry their granddaughter to Qin Haodong."
Qi Yuhu shouted: "How is this possible? The Zhao family has just been robbed of their daughter-in-law by Qin Haodong. How can they come to propose marriage so quickly? Do you think they are shameless?"
Qi Guofan glared at him with a gloomy face: "Second brother, you still haven't understood the importance of this. You really let me down.
What's the point of face? A man is a man who can bend and stretch. If Qin Haodong really becomes the grandson-in-law of the Zhao family, it means that he will get the help of five ninth-grade masters at once. When the Zhao family soars into the sky, who will dare to laugh at them?
?”
Seeing that his father was becoming more and more dissatisfied with him, Qi Yuhu quickly shut up. It seemed that he was completely defeated today.
Qi Yulong said: "Master, the other three aristocratic families have already come to propose marriage. Our Qi family should also hurry up."
Qi Yubiao said: "Judging from today's events, Qin Haodong is very dissatisfied with our Qi family. If he comes to propose marriage at this time, I'm afraid there won't be any good results."
After he finished speaking, everyone present fell into silence. It was indeed the case that the Qi family secretly decided to marry Qi Waner to Zhao Hongkun. This must have made Qin Haodong very angry, and the Qi family would not have a good impression.
After a moment of silence, Qi Guofan said: "It's nothing. I'll come to your door in person, old man. I'll bow my head and apologize first, and then propose marriage. I believe it's hard for Qin Haodong to refute my old man's face."
Even if the head of the family came to propose marriage in person, he actually came to apologize in person. It seemed that no one had ever received such treatment in his memory, which made everyone's faces show a hint of astonishment.
Qi Yuhu's lips moved a few times. He originally wanted to say something, but thinking of the scolding just now, he hesitated and closed his mouth.
At this time, the eldest elder Qi Guoyin spoke, "The head of the family is right. Our Qi family must seize this opportunity. After all, that girl Wan'er is by Qin Haodong's side now, so he shouldn't go too far."
Qi Guofan nodded, "Without further delay, I will come to propose marriage now."
The Chu family and Chu Shanhe gathered their direct descendants together and briefly explained Chu Xuanyue's situation. "What, that little bastard is not dead?"
Just as he finished speaking, a sharp voice sounded, and it was Chu Shanhe's wife and Chu Xuanyue's mother Jin Suying who spoke.
This old lady is a descendant of the late Qing Dynasty. It is said that her family is of royal blood, and her mother is the previous generation of Princess. When the Chu family started, it relied heavily on the power of the Jin family, so she has a very high status in the Chu family.
Even Chu Shanhe gave her three points.
Because of this, Jin Xiuying has always been proud, pays attention to rules, attaches great importance to face matters, and favors boys over girls. She dotes on her two sons, but she doesn't have a good look towards Chu Xuanyue.
Especially after Chu Xuanyue fell in love with Qin Zongheng despite family opposition and gave birth to Qin Haodong, Jin Xiuying hated her even more.
When Chu Shanhe attacked Qin Haodong and expelled Chu Xuanyue from the Chu family, it was largely due to Jin Xiuying's influence.
Chu Xuanli said: "Okay, Mom, it's been so many years, why do you still care about it?"
Jin Xiuying said angrily: "This is not possible. How did that little bastard survive? The matter must be investigated clearly. Could it be that our dignified Chu family can't even handle this matter?"
After finishing speaking, she shouted to the outside: "Old man, come in here."
The door opened, and an old housekeeper in his 60s walked in. He was Uncle Weng, the housekeeper of the Chu family.
"Ma'am, what's the matter?"
Weng Bo said.
"You still have the nerve to ask?" Jin Xiuying roared, "Back then, the head of the family asked you to kill the bastard who gave birth to Chu Xuanyue. You came back and told me that you had killed him. Now that bastard appears alive in the imperial capital.
Tell me, what is going on?"
Uncle Weng's expression changed drastically. He didn't expect that after so many years, the past incident would be mentioned again.
Jin Xiuying shouted: "Tell me, did you kill him or not?"
After hesitating for a moment, Uncle Weng said: "Madam, I have watched you grow up, and the child was so young. I really couldn't do anything at that time, so I sent him out of the imperial capital.
It happened that a relative was going to Jiangnan, so I asked him to take the child away and find a suitable family to send him to."
"Bastard!" Jin Xiuying was furious, "You eat from our Chu family, drink from our Chu family, and you can't even handle this little thing. Why do you have the dignity to stay in our Chu family!"
At this time, Chu Shanhe couldn't stand it anymore and said: "Forget it, it has been so many years. He has no merit and hard work in our Chu family, so forget it."
"No." Jin Xiuying roared again, "When I gave birth to a daughter, I ignored the family's reputation and gave birth to a little bastard. Now even the housekeeper refuses to obey the rules. Are there any rules in this family?"
Uncle Weng sighed, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, and he bowed and said: "Master, madam, this matter is indeed my fault. In addition, I am old and frail and can no longer work for the Chu family. Please find someone else who is wise."
!”
After finishing speaking, he bowed to Chu Shanhe, turned around and walked out.
Looking at his hunched back, Chu Xuanli couldn't bear it. He stepped forward and grabbed him and said, "Uncle Weng, don't leave."
He turned to Jin Xiuying and said: "Mom, Uncle Weng has worked hard in our family these years. He has worked hard without any merit. Why are you doing this?"
Jin Xiuying shouted: "As a housekeeper, if you don't obey the master's orders, such an unruly person is not worthy of staying in our Chu family."
"Young Master, don't force me. I have really grown old and frail these years, and it's time to go back and take care of myself."
After saying that, Uncle Weng didn't stop any longer and walked directly out the door.
Uncle Weng left and saw that Jin Xiuying's expression softened a little. Chu Shanhe said: "It has been so many years. Today we are discussing how to bring that girl Xuan Yue back to our Chu family."
As soon as he finished talking about Jin Xiuying, he shouted: "Why do you want to bring her back? She has not been here all these years, and our Chu family has lived a good life."
Chu Xuanli said: "Mom, what you said is wrong. After all, Xuan Yue is also your biological daughter. You can't just wander around like this.
Now we have made things clear. What Yuan Tianren said back then was nonsense, and the land where fairies bare their skin was a lie. It was a complete misunderstanding.
It has not been easy for my little sister to be alone outside these years. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, we should take her back to the Chu family."
Seeing her son speaking, Jin Xiuying snorted coldly, her tone finally softened a little, and said: "Well, Xuan Yue can come back, but that bastard definitely can't.
A wild child born without any status must have no rules at all. He will definitely make me angry to death when he comes to our Chu family!"
Chu Shanhe said: "What you said is wrong. Why do you say that Qin Haodong is also our grandson? The most important thing is that this child is very promising now. He is already a strong man at the ninth grade grandmaster level and will be of great help to us.
"
He was also helpless when he said this. The Chu family seems to be doing well now and is one of the seven aristocratic families in the imperial capital. In fact, he is very aware of the hidden dangers, that is, there is no successor.
He has two sons. The eldest, Chu Xuanli, is kind-hearted. If this is an advantage for ordinary people, but as the head of the Chu family, being kind-hearted is not enough. He lacks scheming and government.
The second child, Chu Xuanming, is very smart and scheming. Unfortunately, he is short-sighted, cunning, and not broad-minded. This kind of person is also not suitable to be the head of the family.
Even so, Chu Xuanli and Chu Xuanming are much better than their descendants of the third generation. By the time the third generation of the Chu family has grown up, most of them are playboys, and none of them can be of great use.
As for warriors, the two current ninth-grade masters, Chu Shanchuan and Chu Shanhai, have both passed their octogenarian years and will not have much time left in the future.
But under them, there is absolutely no talent. Not to mention the eighth-grade master, there is not even a seventh-grade grandmaster. The Chu family's descendant with the highest cultivation level is the sixth-grade grandmaster.
Faced with this situation in the past, Chu Shanhe was anxious and had no choice but to do anything, but it was different now. He suddenly had a ninth-grade grandmaster-level grandson.
If Qin Haodong can join the Chu family, it will not only quickly increase the strength of the Chu family, but also provide an extra guarantee for the future of the Chu family. After all, Qin Haodong is just in his twenties and is in the prime of life. It can at least guarantee the prosperity of the Chu family for 50 years.
decline.
Based on this idea, he was eager to take Chu Xuanyue back to the Chu family. In fact, his daughter was not his goal. What he wanted in the end was Qin Haodong's joining.
But Jin Xiuying obviously didn't understand his difficulties. She was not a warrior, and she didn't care about family affairs. She always followed her own preferences in everything.
"I don't care if he is a ninth-grade grandmaster or not. I only know that he is a wild child who grew up outside. He must not understand the rules of our big family. Such a person must not enter the gate of my Chu family."
