Hu Qiuying was smart since she was a child. Coupled with her grandfather's careful training, she soon showed extraordinary business qualities. Although Hu Wanjian had not gone to school for a few days, his rich social experience gave him a wise mind, accurate judgment, and courageous
Decision-making ability, these all have a subtle impact on the eldest granddaughter who was raised by me personally.
"My dear granddaughter, please don't let grandpa down. Do you have the confidence?" The three competitions arranged by Hu Wanjian were actually his last tests for his granddaughter. Only by giving her such an opportunity to win can she rely on her own abilities.
Subdue everyone and become the new core of the Hu family.
"Grandpa! I'm not 100% sure. Can you tell me some questions? Hehe!" Hu Qiuying held her grandfather's hand and acted coquettishly.
"Don't even think about it. To tell you the truth, girl, I don't know anything about intelligence. However, I believe in your ability. Has Jade Guanyin been recovered?" Hu Wanjian is not an unprincipled person.
In fact, Hu Qiuying just took the opportunity to act coquettishly. She had not felt this way for a long time. If she really became a master in the future, she would never have such an opportunity again. She did not hope that her grandfather would help her cheat.
However, her grandfather's last words still surprised her.
"Grandpa! You knew this a long time ago?"
"What a joke! If grandpa hadn't meant it, that little bastard Qiu Lai could have succeeded! Hehe!" Hu Wanjian smiled proudly, "Girl, you didn't let grandpa down." He already knew the result without his granddaughter's reply.
"Grandpa!" Hu Qiuying said with some complaints and guilt in her tone. It turned out that all this was done by grandpa to test herself, but the price was too high. "Both the second brother and the sixth brother are missing. It's more dangerous than good!" behind her.
Speak your judgment at a volume that only you can hear.
"They deserve it! My child, you don't have to feel guilty. No one can blame these things. Everything is the best arrangement!" Hu Wanjian comforted his granddaughter. Even though he was angry, his helplessness and desolation could be heard.
"You guys go! Grandpa, take a nap!" The old man stood up, swaying a little, and was supported by An Ruyu.
"Be nice to my granddaughter!" Hu Wanjian ordered in a low voice, staggering to the bedside.
"Yes, grandpa, don't worry!"
After putting grandpa to sleep, the two of them retreated.
Three days came in a blink of an eye. During these three days, Hu Qiuying did not deliberately prepare. She just walked around with An Ruyu every day to get familiar with the environment. When she met family members, she only said hello as a courtesy and chatted a lot.
few.
People were surprised by the appearance of this outsider, and most importantly by Hu Qiuying's attitude. Since when did this proud young lady care so much about a strange man? Could it be that she had figured it out.
Hu Wanjian's 90th birthday celebration was held just outside the Hu family ancestral hall, which is a large courtyard. It is worth mentioning that there is only one tablet in the ancestral hall, and the name Li Zhongshi is written on it, and then there is
That heirloom is the Jade Guanyin.
The courtyard covers an area of ten acres and is surrounded by high walls. The ancestral hall faces north and south. The southernmost end of the courtyard opposite is a stage with a height of 1.3 meters. Every large-scale gathering and activity of the Hu family will be held here.
held.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the courtyard was already filled with invited guests and friends, more than 600 men, women and children, making the scene quite lively.
Hu Wanjian was full of energy and led the entire family to worship his benefactors Li Zhongshi and Yu Guanyin. Behind him were more than fifty members of the Hu family, kneeling on the ground. An Ruyu served as the minister.
The undisclosed prospective son-in-law was also kneeling among them.
Hu Wanjian held the wine bowl in his hand and muttered words, his eyes flashed with crystal light, making his old eyes that were no longer bright appear even more cloudy, "loyal brother, if it weren't for you back then, there would be no Hu family today, please."
After drinking this bowl of wine, I believe in your bravery and bravery, you will not be lonely there, and you will never forget death. I guess I will be there soon, and I will go over there to accompany you..."
The old man read to the end, his voice trembling, his hands shaking slightly, and he poured the wine on the ground in front of the memorial tablet.
Then he lit three pillars of incense and prayed silently to the Jade Guanyin, "Avalokitesvara is above. Hu Wanjian and his whole family kneel down and offer incense. Please pray to the Bodhisattva to bless the Hu family's safety and prosperity for generations to come!"
Hu Wanjian led the entire family to kneel down and kowtow...
"Dear guests, elders, and friends, good morning, everyone!" Hu Yuen stood on the stage, holding a microphone, and personally hosted the birthday banquet.
Behind him, there is a longevity couplet posted on the wall pillars on both sides. The first couplet reads, "Hundreds of years old, fifty years have passed and fifty will come again." The second couplet reads, "The Spring Festival in Haiwu, Eight Thousand Autumns, Eight Thousand Years, and Eight Thousand Years". In the middle,
There is a pine longevity chair, which symbolizes the immortal pines of Nanshan.
"First of all, on behalf of the fifty-four generations of the Hu family, I would like to welcome you all to attend my father's 90th birthday party despite your busy schedule. Thank you! Thank you!" Hu Yu'en raised her hands in thanks, and everyone in the audience applauded to express their congratulations.
"We invite the birthday girl to make a grand appearance!" Relatives and friends applauded again and welcomed him warmly.
With the support of his two granddaughters, Hu Qiuying and Hu Qiuli, Hu Wanjian walked onto the stage and sat on the large birthday chair in the middle. His face was red and filled with happiness. He looked at the people in the audience and smiled from ear to ear.
"Children and grandchildren wish you a happy birthday!"
I saw the descendants of the Hu family filing onto the stage one after another, with their children kneeling in the front row and their grandchildren kneeling in the back row...
“The first blessing is like the long flowing water of the East China Sea, the second blessing is that the longevity is as old as the evergreen pines in Nanshan Mountain, and the third blessing is that you will have the present day every year!”
After everyone bowed and retired, Hu Yuen knelt down alone in front of his father, "Dad, my son wishes you a happy birthday and thanks you for your upbringing! I wish you health and longevity! I wish the family prosperity!"
"Next, I'd like to invite the birthday boy to speak. Everyone is welcome!" Handing the microphone to Hu Wanjian, Hu Yuen stepped aside and stood.
"Thank you! Thank you all!" The ninety-year-old man spoke with a loud voice and clear enunciation.
"On this special day today, I would like to tell you a happy event about the Hu family. My precious granddaughter, Hu Qiuying, has found a boyfriend!" The old man took the lead in applauding, "Grandson, please show your grandson-in-law.
!”
"Grandpa!" Hu Qiuying's face turned red. Although she had gradually adapted to this feeling, after all, she was in front of hundreds of relatives and friends. "Ruyu!" An Ruyu couldn't figure out the situation for a while. There were thousands of troops.
He was not afraid, but this was his first time in such a scene, so he walked to Hu Qiuying's side without hesitation.
"Hold hands! Hold hands!" "Hold hands! Hold hands!" People in the audience cheered and shouted in unison, which was earth-shattering.
Hu Qiuying had recovered from her embarrassment and generously grabbed An Ruyu's left hand and pulled him towards the center of the stage.
"Elders, relatives and friends, first of all, I would like to thank you all for your attention and concern for Qiuying's marriage over the years. Thank you!" Hu Qiuying bowed deeply, and An Ruyu had to bend down as well.
It looked like a couple worshiping heaven and earth, causing the audience to burst into laughter.
Some people even sneered, "What the hell!"
"Master Zhi, isn't that beauty your sister?" A sturdy black man next to him asked doubtfully, his Chinese speaking very stiff, "But your beautiful sister seems to have been stuck in cow dung!"
"Okay! Qiongbusi, you have only been in China for a few days. You all know that it is called putting flowers on cow dung. It seems that you are really poor!" Although Hu Qiuzhi was praising him, there was also a hint of emotion in his words.
The taste of teasing.
"Your sister is a flower, a beautiful flower! I love her! Is that okay?" Jones looked at Hu Qiuying on the stage, his eyes radiating passion, revealing a beast-like desire.
"Yes, I support it. As long as you find a chance to defeat that kid, my beautiful sister will be yours. Hehe, when the time comes, you can..., haha!" Hu Qiuzhi smiled evilly, even a little unscrupulously.
, causing the people around him to look at him with disgusted expressions.
"What are you looking at! I'll beat you up! Jones!" The black man waved his fist at the man.
"The peach blossoms shine brightly. When my son returns, he will be suitable for his family. On this grand day of grandpa's 90th birthday party, I would like to solemnly introduce the man next to me. His name is An Ruyu. My name is An Ruyu.
My future husband-in-law, please take good care of me."
An Ruyu bowed politely and deeply, and Hu Qiuying followed suit.
"Kiss me, kiss me!" "Kiss me, kiss me!" The people in the audience were not too noisy to watch the excitement, and started cheering again.
"Miss, why are there still these contents? Do you really want to kiss?" An Ruyu had a black line on his face. He was already a little impatient at being manipulated, and began to complain in a low voice, so low that only two people could hear it.
"Stop talking, just think about good things. Do you think you want to kiss me? Can I agree? Someone will come to the rescue!"
"If I had known that being a boyfriend was so difficult, I might as well..."
"Do you want to be irresponsible?" Hu Qiuying's eyes widened and she pinched her hand hard, right on the skin of the back of An Ruyu's hand.
"Ouch! It hurts!"
"Okay! Don't make things difficult for the young couple!" Hu Wanjian raised the microphone in time and said, which was a relief for the two of them. "Because of the time, there is a second thing, which is related to the future and destiny of the Hu family.
An announcement is needed.”
"What is going on? Is it related to the future and destiny?" The audience could no longer calm down.
"Don't you know yet? Today we will determine the new head of the Hu family. From now on, Mr. Hu will completely let him go."
"Really, who could it be?"
"It's hard to say. The second eldest son of the Hu family, Hu Qiuzhi, came back from country M specifically and was determined to win. He also brought a foreign boxing champion to be his personal bodyguard. He was a world-class master and I heard he even won a gold belt.
"
"No one can do it. Miss Qiu Ying was brought up by the old man. She must be capable and good-looking. She must be the new head!"
"You don't understand this. I just heard that there are several competitions today."
"I've heard about it too. Look at the bald man over there. The guy next to Hu Laosan is also a master and a charlatan. Hu Laosan is spending all his money to support his boss Hu Qiuping. It seems that he will be there soon.
It’s so exciting!”
"Everyone! I declare that from today on, I, Hu Wanjian, will completely delegate my power. All affairs of the Hu family will be taken over by a new head. In my mind, the new head of the Hu family has been selected for a long time. She is the eldest daughter of the Hu family, Hu Qiuying.
!" Hu Wanjian finished speaking in one breath, with full confidence.
