"Steward of the Xia Mansion, Qin San respectfully welcomes the envoy from the temple." The steward arrived personally and bowed at the door to greet him.
In each of the two sedan chairs, a man and a woman got out.
The woman is seventeen years old, dignified and elegant, with a stunning temperament.
The old man is over eighty years old, and his calm expression gives people a sense of power without anger.
Uncle Qin doesn't know the girl.
But at first glance, Uncle Qin felt that the old man looked familiar.
He rubbed his eyes again and again, then lost his voice in shock: "Old... old palace master!"
In Yun Gucheng, there is only one old palace master.
The former master of the temple, the myth of martial arts in the past, Zhen Nan Tian!
Zhen Nantian chuckled lightly and waved his hand to stop Uncle Qin from kneeling down and saluting: "Is Mr. Xia from your mansion here?"
After Yunxia's dinner, Xia Qingchen promised to let Zhen Nantian get back into shape and then find him in the Xia Mansion.
One month passed, he had adjusted his health and came to visit Xia Qingchen.
Uncle Qin said hurriedly: "The young master and the master just went out, how about I call them back right now?"
Compared with the family dinner, it is obviously more important to receive this god-like figure.
"No need, I'll just wait in the house." Zhennan Tian was approachable.
Uncle Qin nodded hurriedly and immediately invited them into the living room.
Cloud guest is coming.
Xia Qingchen and his son arrived on time.
According to previous family gatherings, Xia Qingchen and his son usually came first. Xia Xun and his son always came late because of their noble status.
As a result, when they went this time, Xia Xun and his son had already arrived in advance.
Moreover, Xia Cangliu was also present.
Xia Qingchen glanced casually and saw a dignified and beautiful middle-aged woman whose charm was somewhat similar to her father's.
She should be aunt Xia Jie.
"Auntie." Xia Qingchen called casually as a greeting.
Xia Jie looked at Xia Qingchen and smiled slightly: "He is very talented, and my eldest brother's child is not bad either."
Xia Yuan responded and sat down with Xia Qingchen.
By chance, Xia Qingchen's position was next to Zhao Churan.
"Cousin Qingchen." Zhao Churan greeted with a smile, showing a rare look of kindness.
Now she looks at Xia Qingchen more favorably than Xia Qilin.
"Yes, cousin." Unfortunately, Xia Qingchen's reaction was cold and he didn't even look at her.
This made Zhao Churan feel unhappy.
I thought to myself: "I've already taken the initiative to say hello to you, but if you're still like this, aren't you just getting to know Zhen Zhilan? What's so great about it?"
She turned her head and stopped looking at Xia Qingchen.
For the first time, all members of the Xia family are here.
It's just that the atmosphere is not very harmonious.
Xia Yuan and Xia Xun don't talk to each other.
Xia Qingchen, Xia Qilin, and Zhao Churan also said that they did not speculate.
Xia Cangliu, who was still a grandfather, broke the atmosphere: "It's a rare gathering, so let's toast to the arrival of the child's aunt."
People at the table reluctantly clinked glasses, but it was still deserted.
This made Xia Cangliu feel a little embarrassed.
"In addition to honoring the children's aunt today, there are two other things to announce, both of which are top priorities for the Xia family." Xia Cangliu's voice became a little more excited.
"First, after discussions between the two families, Qilin and Churan's marriage has been decided."
This time Xia Jie came to Yungu to discuss marriage.
In the past few days, discussions with Beixia Mansion have been completed, and now it is made public.
Xia Yuan was surprised and said with a smile: "Congratulations."
Xia Qingchen also squeezed out a smile: "Congratulations to my cousin."
There was no fluctuation in his heart. The engagement between the two did not affect him at all.
This indifferent expression made Zhao Churan a little disappointed.
She originally thought Xia Qingchen would feel disappointed.
After all, such a beautiful cousin like her was going to marry another cousin.
Although, she is actually not satisfied with this marriage.
After seeing Xia Qilin's disgusting nature, she was very resistant to this marriage.
But when it comes to marriage, she can only listen to her parents' decisions.
Everyone laughed, but she had a dark and confused look on her face.
The best candidate in her mind was the person who saved Gui Cailin that day.
Every girl has a hero who saves her in critical moments.
She met it but couldn't get it.
“What about the second thing?”
Xia Qingchen's eyes flashed.
He knew that nothing good would happen at this party!
Xia Yuan remained calm and said, "Father, finish speaking first."
Xia Cangliu paused for a while, then looked resolute and said, "Your second brother's family has encountered some difficulties recently and needs to raise one million silver. Therefore, I hope you can make some efforts and help."
After he told him, Xia Yuan understood what was going on.
It turned out that Li Weifeng had frequent contacts with Beixia Mansion and was listed as a key suspect by Wuge.
For half a month, Wu Ge has been conducting a thorough investigation of Beixia Mansion.
Although Beixia Mansion did not participate in the gangsters, it had many secret transactions with Li Weifeng.
Based on these clues, Wu Ge was ready to judge Bei Xia Mansion as a gangster traitor.
Currently, people from Beixia Mansion have been restricted from leaving Yun Gucheng.
Fortunately, Xia Cangliu smoothed the relationship and found the senior officials of Wuge. The other party promised to find a way to pardon their suspicions as long as they gave one million silver.
Xia Yuan didn't want to give it.
When he was in the most difficult situation, his second brother never gave him a penny.
Now that he is in trouble, he thinks of himself.
"Xia Yuan, for my sake, can you help me?" Xia Cangliu said.
The most important thing for Xia Yuan is filial piety.
My father begged me personally. If he didn't help, he would feel very guilty.
"Okay, how much do you need?" Xia Yuan asked.
Xia Cangliu's face was soothed and he said fluently: "One million."
What?
Xia Yuan was surprised: "The total capital is only one million, you plan to let me out?"
What does one million mean to Nanxia Mansion?
After selling off all the mansions, properties and land deeds, I could barely make up one million.
Xia Cangliu should be very clear about this.
Xia Cangliu said confidently: "Xia Yuan, this is a critical moment for our clan! Beixia Mansion has a better development momentum and cannot afford to lose it. Your Nanxia Mansion has a small family business and it is difficult to grow, so it is better to complete Beixia Mansion and survive this crisis.
Difficulties are the best solution for our clan!"
His idea is very simple: protect the big and give up the small.
Xia Yuan laughed angrily: "Father, let me ask you, I don't care if I sell out all the Nanxia Mansion, even if I beg for food, what will Qingchen do? Follow me and live on the street as a beggar?"
He couldn't believe that his father would make such a shameless and ridiculous request.
Xia Cangliu had already thought about it, and responded fluently, saying: "You and Qingchen can move into Beixia Mansion. From now on, we can live under the same roof and have fun together. Wouldn't it be better?"
This time, before Xia Yuan could get angry, Xia Qingchen had already taken action.
He stared at Xia Cangliu coldly: "Old man! I've tolerated you for a long time!"
What does it mean to tell lies with open eyes?
he is the one!
Beixia Mansion themselves are entangled with Li Weifeng. This is their own fault.
Now, without spending any money, he has to sell out all the Nanxia Mansion to compensate for their mistakes!
