"Good. Cao Hong nodded, took the box of fruit slices, held them carefully, as if holding the most precious thing in the world, and then followed Xiong Yao to leave the lake and get on the Lamborghini.

Just as Lamborghini left, in the library, a boy rushed out in a hurry and rushed straight to the lake.

"Dizzy, I left in too much of a hurry, and I forgot to take the fruit!"

When he came to the lake, he walked back and forth several times, but Lu Yuan didn't find anything, "What's the matter, I was still here just now, and after a while, it's gone, eh." ”

Talking to himself, Lu Yuan went back to the library sullenly.

At this time, Cao Fu.

"Hurry up, hurry up and get in the car, let Amu take you over, don't delay any longer, Old Man Xiong is a person who cares about the concept of time, and he doesn't like to be late. ”

In the room, a middle-aged man was urging Cao Qian.

Cao Qian's face was extremely reluctant, but this was her father's order, and she couldn't help but listen.

"Dad, do you really want me to come over? Why do you force me to marry Xiong Hui? Don't you care about your daughter's happiness? Are you just for your gold mine? That gold mine has already made you make enough money, why can't you make enough money? In order to let the Xiong family invest, you even ignore my feelings?" Cao Qian was really depressed.

Early this morning, my father received a notice from the Xiong family.

said that Mr. Xiong was free today and wanted to meet his future granddaughter-in-law, so he asked Cao Qian to go to Mr. Xiong's house and show Mr. Xiong.

And although it is said to take a look.

But it's also a form of etiquette.

Some time ago, Xiong Hui's dowry or something had already been ordered, and now, letting Cao Qian go to Xiong's house to show the parents of the Xiong family is actually a kind of etiquette.

I've seen this, I'm afraid the next thing is to set a date to get married.

Although Cao Qian was already a little resigned to her fate in her heart, whenever these rituals were performed, her heart couldn't help but become irritable.

"Don't say it, you hurry over, Amu, take care of the second miss!" Cao Yunfeng's face was not very good-looking, he didn't answer his daughter's words, turned around and left.

Cao Qian's tears flowed down all of a sudden.

Her father's attitude made her really cold.

"Let's go, Amu!" got into the car, Cao Qian leaned against the window, tears still flowing.

Amu is the driver at home, and his face looks a little sympathetic and helpless at this time.

But he still drove the car honestly and sent Cao Qian to Xiong's house.

After a report, Cao Qian was taken in by the people of the Xiong family.

Xiong's house is very large, and there are several sets of yards in it, layer by layer.

Finally, I finally came to the innermost courtyard.

As soon as she entered, Cao Qian's heart was still startled.

I saw that there were many people in the yard, most of them were middle-aged, and at a glance they knew that they were Xiong Hui's various uncles and aunts and the like, and there was an old man sitting in the middle, the old man was dressed in a black satin robe, trimmed with gold wire, and a big peony embroidered with gold thread on his chest, and he was playing with iron walnuts in his hand.

Sit on a Taishi chair.

As soon as Cao Qian entered, everyone's eyes were focused on her, which made Cao Qian feel extremely uncomfortable.

When the old man saw Cao Qian, he didn't speak, but just beckoned to Cao Qian, that posture revealed a sense of domineering, a feeling of not being angry and arrogant.

Cao Qian knew that Xiong Hui had a grandfather, who seemed to be called Xiong Xuesen, although he rarely showed up, but the upper-level people in Wujiang City knew that the old man of the Xiong family was very hawkish, had a very iron wrist, and was also the head of the Xiong family.

In short, if Wujiang City looks at the Xiong family as the leader, then the Xiong family is the head of the Xiong family.

"Didn't Cao Yunfeng teach you to salute when you see an elder?" Xiong Xuesen's gaze was on Cao Qian's body, and his gaze made Cao Qian feel terrible.

It's really terrifying, Cao Qian feels that the old man Xiong in front of her is more terrifying than any upper-class person she has ever seen, it is an experience that has never been experienced.

"Huh?" Cao Qian was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly bowed, "Hello Grandpa Xiong." ”

"Hmph. Xiong Xuesen said coldly, "Sure enough, men alone can't teach sensible children, Cao Yunfeng is also lucky enough, married twice, the first wife ran away from home, and the second died early." Children who don't have a mother just don't know how to be polite. ”

When Cao Qian heard him talk about her mother, her heart trembled, and her eyes turned red.

Yes, as far back as she remembers, she only saw her mother when she was very young, and later, her mother died of illness.

Time can indeed dilute sadness, but whenever she is sad, Cao Qian misses her mother very much.

And now, it is the saddest time for her, because she was forced by her father to marry Xiong Hui.

No one stood up to help her, and no one had the ability to help her.

No one really cares about what she really thinks in her heart, Dad doesn't care, eldest sister doesn't care, and no one in the Xiong family cares.

Only the new sister cares, but the new sister has no ability to help her.

If my mother was still here, she would never let herself suffer this kind of grievance.

Thinking of this, Cao Qian couldn't help but cry.

"What's going on? A daughter-in-law who has not yet passed the door is crying at our Xiong's house, which is very unlucky. Xiong Xuesen's tone was a little unhappy.

Cao Qian was so frightened that she quickly wiped away her tears.

At this time, she was really scared in her heart, and she felt helpless here.

"Okay, I'll tell you the truth, you know the Huihui of our family, he has been pampered since he was a child, and he can't tolerate the slightest grievance, so if you marry him in the future, you must recognize your status, you are his daughter-in-law, and you must follow the code of conduct for the husband as a wife. Xiong Xuesen said with a stern face, "Our Xiong family is a big family with a very long history, it has been handed down since the King of Chu thousands of years ago, and it has never broken the bloodline, and our Xiong family's body has noble blood flowing, so we have always followed the ancient customs and guidelines, as a woman, you marry into the Xiong family, you have to serve your husband well!"

When Cao Qian heard this, there was a buzz in her mind.

Originally, she was reluctant to marry Xiong Hui, but she didn't expect the Xiong family to be such a family, she wanted to serve Xiong Hui and return her husband to his wife?

However, at this time, Cao Qian was in front of so many Xiong families, especially in front of Xiong Xuesen, she felt extremely scared, so she didn't dare to say anything.

"Alright, let's take it for a check-up. Xiong Xuesen waved his hand and said.

Immediately, two women came up and took Cao Qian into the back room.

"Check your body?" Cao Qian didn't understand what was going on for a while.

"Hehe, you're going to marry the third young master, of course, you have to check your body to see if you're qualified. With that, the two women motioned for Cao Qian to take off her clothes, and then carefully checked Cao Qian's body inside and out.

While inspecting, the two women chatted with each other.

"Well, yes, the ass is quite big, and it's easy to raise!"

"The physical condition is good, after marrying our third young master, he should give birth to a big fat boy soon!"

Cao Qian was beside her, listening to their conversation.

There is a sad feeling in my heart, what has become of me?

The former self, a dignified rich girl, the age of flowers, the world and life like flowers.

However, now, marrying Xiong Hui, the words of Old Man Xiong just now, and the words of these two women, made Cao Qian fall into the ice cave.

To be honest, Cao Qian didn't know how she came back from Xiong's house.

"You're back?"

In the living room, Cao Yunfeng was waiting for her.

Sitting on the sofa, there were more than a dozen cigarette butts at Cao Yunfeng's feet, and his face was also heavy.

Cao Qian was stunned for a moment, and then understood that after she went to Xiong's house, her father should have been sitting here, smoking, waiting for him to come back?

Why did he do it?

Why do you smoke cigarette after cigarette?

"You know!" Cao Qian suddenly understood, she stared at Cao Yunfeng, "You know what it means to marry Xiong Hui, you know what kind of family the Xiong family is, you know what kind of ending I will have if I marry the Xiong family!"

"Yes, of course I do. Cao Yunfeng's eyes were also very sad.

"But you still let me marry Xiong Hui, just to expand your broken gold mine! You have already made enough money, how much do you have to earn enough!" Cao Qian was heartbroken for a moment.

In the eyes of his father, he is not as good as the gold mine?

For the sake of the gold mine, push your daughter into the fire pit?

"Do you really think that gold mine made money?" Cao Yunfeng said decadently for a moment, as if he had aged a little.
