The fourteenth round
Text Chapter 14
In the past week, almost the whole Sheng family has been revolving around the central event that Feng Shuai and his wife are about to visit in the near future. 78 High Speed Update .//
Sheng Yuanhang needless to say, the other party is coming to ask him for his daughter, who has been cherished like a jewel in the palm of his hand for so many years, and is such a prominent family, he has both the self-satisfaction of being a father in his heart, but also the reluctance to be a father, that kind of contradictory and complex mood is really indescribable, and it haunts his heart all the time.
As for Mrs. Sheng, she will not take Yisheng's affairs to heart, but she is very strong by nature, because as a hostess, she will never lose face in front of the guests, Tèbié is facing such a weighty guest, and because Feng Shuai's wife will also come, she already thinks very highly of herself, so she will never show any short "" in front of this lady.
So these days, the entire Sheng family, up and down, inside and out, she has personally instructed her subordinates to clean and arrange, and she wants to leave the impression that the hostess is good at housekeeping and elegant taste.
It was Bai Cuiyin, who looked coldly at Mrs. Sheng's busy Zhang Luo, and saw Sheng Yuanhang's face full of emotion, suddenly smiling and sighing, wanting to ridicule a few words, but for no reason to feel sad, he simply didn't mix, a person went back to the room sullenly, closed the door, took out an iron box from under the bed, and took out the key from the close-fitting clothes, opened it, and it was full of gold bars and jewelry.
She took those things and looked at them over and over again, and the henchman came in with a bowl of chicken soup for her, and when she saw it, she smiled and said, "I've saved so much!"
Bai Cuiyin looked at the gold bar in her hand, and sneered while rubbing it, "Love is unreliable, and I am not blessed to find a good son-in-law to support me in my old age. β
The old mother comforted her and said, "Look at what you said, you have been with the master for so long, the master will not miss the old love, drink the chicken soup quickly, don't think nonsense." β
Bai Cuiyin sneered, didn't speak, just put the gold bar back into the box and locked it, and then put the key close to his body, Fang took the chicken soup in the old mother's hand, and drank it slowly.
The days passed day by day, and finally the day of Feng Shuai and his wife's visit came.
On this day, Sheng Yuanhang got up early in the morning, and the first thing he did was to go to his daughter's room to see if she had woken up.
Yisheng naturally woke up, in fact, she had a little excitement and nervousness in her heart, she woke up just after dawn, and saw that it was still early, so she closed her eyes and lay on the bed for a while, but she couldn't sleep, so she simply got up, but she didn't expect that just after freshening up, her father came, she laughed, Dad, probably more nervous than her.
"Don't show up for a while, in case they really come to propose, it will be inconvenient for you to be there. Sheng Yuanhang thought about it for a night, and he was anxious to find his daughter early in the morning.
Yisheng said "um", but he didn't expect that the first thing his father said early in the morning was this, which couldn't help but be a little funny, but his face slowly turned red because of his father's words.
Yuanhang saw his daughter like this, so he took her hand and sat down on the small sofa, "Xiaosheng, Dad is also in turmoil in his heart for a while, and he is also thinking about it without a fixed number, I thought that I would talk to you after seeing them today to figure out what the situation is, but now that it has been said that this is the part, Dad will ask you first, and there is a good number in my heart If the Feng family really came to propose marriage to you for Bo Zhongting, would you like it?"
Yisheng's face was red, although he was a little shy in his heart, he was not cowardly, and smiled half-jokingly and half-coquettishly at his father: "Dad, if I don't want to, I will let you not even let them enter the gate." β
Yuanhang couldn't help but be amused by his daughter, laughing and sighing: "Girls are outgoing, my Xiaosheng has also grown up." β
"Dad!"
Yisheng was very embarrassed, and was about to say something, but saw his father suddenly straighten his face, "Xiaosheng, you know that I have never advocated that you be implicated with these dignitaries, this Bo Zhongting, if you really like him, then Dad can still accept it, but if you are for some other reason, such as what your aunt said to repay your kindness, then Dad will never allow it, you must not have such stupid thoughts, don't you understand?"
The concern and unease in his father's words, how could Yisheng not hear it, and he put away Fang Cai's joking expression at the moment, and said seriously: "Dad, I know you're worried about me, but you should also understand your daughter, marriage is a lifelong thing, and I won't marry someone I don't like to wrong." β
Sheng Yuanhang hesitated for a moment, but he was still relieved, and sighed and spoke, "It's because I know you, so I'm not sure if you really like him, Xiaosheng, have you let go of the past?"
The smile on Yisheng's lips stiffened slightly, but this time, she didn't quickly cover her emotions with a better smile, but lowered her eyes and quietly thought about her thoughts.
Sheng Yuanhang didn't force her, although he felt sorry for his daughter, he didn't want her to give her life's events in a daze, no matter what decision she made, he wanted her to know what she was doing and what she wanted.
He didn't wait too long, then he saw his daughter raise her face again, a pair of black and white beautiful eyes were exactly the same as her mother's, full of frankness and persistence, she opened her mouth to herself, her voice was soft and firm, "Dad, I don't want to lie to you, even now, I still can't face him without guilt, I don't know if I really let go, but this has nothing to do with my desire to marry Bo Yuzheng." β
He felt a slight bitterness in his heart, and he didn't speak, but just listened to his daughter's voice continue to come" Dad, just like I told you that day, I knew Bo Yuzheng as early as when I was in Paris, and then returned to Shanghai to get to know him further, and we have never broken off our contact with Dad, if you know him as well as I do, you will know that I want to marry him, not because of escape, not because of repayment, not for any other reason, really just because he is good enough to make me fall in love, so that I am willing to be his wife, and face the future with him, just because of him, I feel worthwhile, and his reputation and status have nothing to do with itγ β
Sheng Yuanhang really didn't expect that his daughter, who had always been treated as a little girl, would be able to say such a thing, and he felt relieved for his daughter's growth and maturity on the one hand, but he couldn't help but feel sad on the other hand.
He has always known that Ji Huan is an unhealable wound in his daughter's heart, this emotional wound, he is powerless as a father, except for time, he can only hope for the appearance of another person, can hold her hand out of the past pain, and can calm the pain in her heart with patience and love.
Now that this person has appeared, even if he is not the ideal candidate in his mind, as long as he really treats his daughter well and he can bring happiness to his daughter, then there is nothing to worry about about the rest.
The daughter kept persuading him on the side, "Dad, he's really a very good person, you'll know when you meet in a while." β
Sheng Yuanhang shook his daughter's hand, sighed and smiled, "It's time to meet and see what kind of person is there who can make my baby daughter keep saying good things for him." β
"Dad!" Yisheng was ashamed.
Sheng Yuanhang slowly moved his gaze to the bust of the woman hanging on the wall, with a look of joy and sadness on his face.
Yujun, when our daughter grows up, she is leaving us.
