Mr. Tang's face was sullen, and the crutch in his hand hit the floor hard.
Seeing that the old man was really angry, Tang Zichen quickly admitted his mistake.
"Grandpa, I... don't know the relationship between Mr. Huqing and Yun Xi, but... I just want to remind my third uncle."
Tang Si's pupils narrowed and he was about to have an attack.
Before he spoke, Tang Chuping was the first to rush over, raised his right hand and slapped his son hard on the face.
"You bastard, why don't you apologize to your third uncle and your third aunt?"
Tang Chuping was not a fool, and he immediately guessed that he had fallen into the trap of Yun Xi and Tang Si this time.
This time, in front of the old man and so many people, if Tang Si and Yun Xi didn't give an explanation, it would be impossible for them to let Tang Zichen go.
Maybe, even he will be implicated.
At this time, Tang Chuping could only choose to sacrifice his son to save his face.
A mother loves her son very much. Seeing her husband take action against her son, Mrs. Tang grabbed Tang Chuping's arm.
"You...why are you beating the child?"
"Go away!" Tang Chuping raised his leg and kicked his son in the leg, "Why don't you admit your mistake to grandpa?"
It doesn't matter what outsiders think of his son. What matters is that the old man must not be completely disappointed in Tang Zichen.
Fu Nanjin was also a smart man. He stepped forward and pushed Tang Zichen's arm.
Tang Zichen understood, took a step forward, and knelt down in front of Mr. Tang.
"Grandpa, Zichen was confused for a moment, please spare me this time!"
The guests around him all tried to smooth things over.
"Mr. Tang, forget about the big day, right?"
"Yes, Mr. Tang, young people are bound to make mistakes."
…
Mr. Tang frowned and stared at his grandson kneeling in front of him, his face full of anger.
Normally, Tang Zichen and Tang Si would argue and fight in the company, but Mr. Tang didn't think it was a big deal.
After all, he is a young man with strong blood, so it is understandable that he strives for the limelight.
After a few years of hard work, it will be fine if your temperament becomes calm.
But this time, Tang Zichen actually did such a thing, not only stabbing his uncle in the back, but also humiliating the Tang family at such a banquet. The old man was naturally extremely angry.
Raising his right hand, Mr. Tang slapped Tang Zichen hard.
"What does our Tang family rely on to be where we are today? This is the first and last time. If you dare to do this again, get out of the Tang family!"
Tang Zichen was beaten until the corners of his lips bleed, and he lowered his head in resignation.
"I don't dare anymore, Grandpa, Zichen doesn't dare anymore."
"Discipline your son well!" He glared at his eldest son, Tang Chuping, and took a deep breath, "Everyone is laughing, please take a seat now!"
"Everyone, please take your seats!"
"Everyone please come in!"
Tang Chi and Shang Li were busy getting the guests back to the hall.
Everyone turned and walked into the VIP room. Tang Si glanced sideways at Tang Zichen, who was still kneeling on the ground, snorted coldly, and pulled Yunxi to follow Mr. Tang.
Seeing everyone walking away, Mrs. Tang hurriedly pulled her son up and stroked his face distressedly.
"Does it hurt? Tell me... this old man is really, why... he was really beaten, and he is bleeding."
"Okay!" Tang Chuping interrupted his wife's complaint, glanced sideways at his son, feeling distressed and angry, "Being beaten? He deserves it! From now on, both of you, please be smarter."
When he said this, his eyes swept across Fu Nanjin's face with a hint of reproach.
In this sentence, he was not only blaming his son, but also Fu Nanjin.
This matter was the plan proposed by Fu Nanjin, and she and Tang Zichen were jointly responsible for it.
The plan did not succeed, and Tang Chuping was inevitably a little disappointed with Fu Nanjin.
Fu Nanjin is a smart man, and it is not difficult to hear the hidden meaning of Tang Chuping's words.
Holding Tang Zichen's arm, she said gently: "Let's go, I'll help you wash your face."
Tang Chuping bravely took his wife and Tang Zining into the VIP room to continue attending today's engagement banquet.
Fu Nanjin helped Tang Zichen wash his face. Of course, Fu Nanting was not interested in attending the banquet. He curled his lips and left with the psychologist.
A small incident did not affect the continuation of the engagement banquet.
After the guests all took their seats, Mr. Tang was supported by Yunxi and walked onto the podium.
Looking around, his eyes fell on Yun Xi beside him.
"Others say that I am very lucky to have a son like Tang Si, but in my opinion, my greatest blessing is not to have a son like Tang Si, but to have a daughter-in-law like Yunxi."
The old man's tone was sincere and grateful.
"Everyone knows that Xiaoxi used to be in our house and I raised her as my daughter.
At that time, I thought that no matter what, I would keep this daughter in our Tang family.
God has mercy on me and really made my dream come true.
Today I specially prepared this engagement banquet for the two of them, just to invite everyone to come over and be a witness to Tang Si and Xiao Xi."
There was warm applause from the audience.
Mr. Tang waved, and the butler on the side was busy bringing the prepared envelope tied with a red ribbon onto the stage.
Taking the envelope into his hand, Mr. Tang stretched out his palm and handed the envelope to Yun Xi.
"This is 10% of the shares of Shengtang in my name. It can be regarded as a betrothal gift from our Tang family to you."
In one sentence, everyone was shocked.
The guests in the audience were all extremely envious.
A 10% stake in Shengtang is an asset worth nearly 100 billion.
The old man really loves his daughter-in-law very much.
Tang Chuping and his wife turned blue with anger.
The old man had previously handed over most of the shares of Shengtang to Tang Si, leaving only 15% of the shares in his hands.
Now, if you give 10% to Yunxi, wouldn't this be equivalent to handing over the entire prosperous Tang Dynasty to them?
"Dad!" Tang Zining looked unwilling, "Grandpa, isn't this going too far?"
Tang Chuping gritted his teeth and said nothing.
Even he can't change the old man's decision.
Yun Xi waved his hands hurriedly: "Uncle Tang, this... I can't have this."
"This is the betrothal gift. You can't accept it!" Mr. Tang took her hand and put the envelope solemnly in her hand. "From now on, Tang Si and the Tang family will be entrusted to you."
The envelope in my hand is heavy.
Yunxi stared into the old man's eyes, read the old man's thoughts, and nodded solemnly.
"Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Tang Si and help him manage the prosperous Tang Dynasty."
"These alone are not enough." Mr. Tang smiled, "You also need to give me a fat grandson as soon as possible."
Yunxi's face felt hot.
Under the stage, everyone burst into laughter.
The atmosphere of the banquet instantly became lively and festive.
"Okay, come..." Mr. Tang took the wine glass handed over by Tang Si, "I won't say much else, but for this glass, I would like to thank my in-laws for marrying such a good daughter-in-law to our Tang family.
Thank you everyone for coming and cheers!”
"Cheers, cheers!"
"I wish Mr. Tang and Miss Yun a happy marriage and a son soon!"
"Yes, yes, let's give our Mr. Tang a fat grandson as soon as possible."
…
Everyone smiled and blessed, drank the first glass of wine together, and the engagement party officially began.
Yun Xi and Tang Si helped the old man off the stage and sat back down as chairman.
Mr. Tang smiled and held Yunhetang's arm: "Come, let us two old brothers have a drink."
