Under the eaves, the parrot quacked, adding a little more joy to the garden.

Qi Lingyang glanced at Su Xiang's back, his face slowly fell, and his warm eyes showed a little coldness.

He hoped that in front of her, he would always be the gentle and humble Qi Lingyang, the person she could rely on, but now, he couldn't let it go like this......

Su Xiang changed a red Han skirt for Pearl, which is now popular in national costumes, and it is very ceremonial to wear such a skirt to salute the elders during the New Year.

The little girl looks as white as jade, beautiful and cute like a jade carved doll, Du Ruohan herself has classical beauty, and her pearl appearance has inherited her kind of beauty, and she is beautiful when she wears a sweaty skirt.

This girl has grown up, she must be a beautiful embryo.

Su Xiang smiled slightly after picking up the pearl, and took her little hand downstairs.

In the garden, Qi Lingyang stood in front of a plum tree, at this time the plum had grown flower bones, the thin petals were hugged together, the wind blew, the branches shook slightly, and the flower bones also shook lightly.

Pearl looked at Qi Lingyang and called out glutinously: "Baba......" She threw herself into his arms like a little milk swallow.

Qi Lingyang easily picked her up with one hand, he looked at Su Xiang, and the corners of his lips on both sides were slightly hooked.

The style of the skirt she wears is more ordinary, compared to the clothes she usually wears in plain colors, this red retro skirt makes her very energetic, and it also reflects the atmosphere of the New Year.

He handed his hand over and said, "Wow." "Between her slender fingers, she pinched a thin branch of wax plum, and the flower had not yet bloomed.

Su Xiang took it and pinched it in his hand and looked at it: "How did I pick the flowers?" ”

Qi Lingyang said: "Look at how you are dressed, very lined." ”

Su Xiang pursed his lips and smiled, and the pearl grabbed Qi Lingyang's clothes and shook it: "Baba, I, Huahua......" She also wants to be beautiful.

Qi Lingyang scratched her little nose and said, "Your flowers, you have to wait for your boyfriend to send them later." ”

It sounds like a casual sentence, but it is hinting at something to Su Xiang. He glanced at Su Xiang and walked towards the gate with the pearl in his arms.

Su Xiang lowered his eyes and glanced at the plum blossom and bit his lower lip gently. The driver was moving the New Year's gift to the car, and Zhang's mother carried a basket of eggs in the shape of ingots, and muttered: "These are all from my hometown, absolute free-range eggs, say hello to the old man." ”

Qi Haipeng gave bonuses during the New Year, and gave a big red envelope to all the people in the family, even Xiangyuan took care of it, Zhang's mother was very happy, and sent the bacon sent from her hometown to the old man.

The rear compartment was stuffed with a full car, and the rear cover was closed with a bang, and this was the end.

Su Xiang got in the car, and Pearl sat down on her tiredly. The little girl pointed to her clothes, and then to her skirt: "Red." ”

"That's right, red. ”

The pearl was in the identification stage, so Su Xiang also took the opportunity to teach her to recognize the color, pointing to Lamei and saying, "Yellow Y." ”

Qi Lingyang glanced at them, the clothes of the two people were custom-made by the designer he found, and he made it clear that he wanted to look like parent-child clothes, but he couldn't make it too obvious.

He doesn't know if every man has such a naïve idea, seeing his wife and daughter wearing parent-child clothes is very warm and homely.

But Su Xiang and him are not married in the end, and she remembers Fu Ying in her heart, and she will definitely feel sad about Fu Ying when she wears a parent-child outfit, so he can only do it quietly.

Qi Lingyang slowly pinched his fingers, lowered his eyes, and collected that little bit of humility in his eyes.

The car soon arrived at the Su family's old house, the Qi family's old house was cleaned, there were two big red lanterns hanging at the door, and several osmanthus trees in the yard were also hung with small lanterns, which looked joyful.

Pearl has long been familiar with Qi Haipeng, and when people are still in the yard, they call grandpa loudly, Qi Haipeng has an apron around his waist, and his hands are full of flour and he came out to meet her: "Eh, I'm here so early." ”

Pearl looked at him with a smile, clasped his hands together like a Fu to give him a smile: "Grandpa, have a good New Year." ”

Xiao Cheng was in Beicheng in those days, when he was bored between dance practice, he took pearls to have fun, and taught her these tricks to please the elders.

Qi Haipeng was very happy with this freshness, smiled and bent his eyebrows and said, "Okay, good." ”

Pearl straightened up, blinked her long eyelashes like a fan, and spread out her little hands: "Grandpa, where is the bag." ”

Qi Haipeng has no daughters in his life, and Du Ruohan's daughter-in-law is a decent one, and he obviously can't catch the quirky trick of the little girl, he glanced at Su Xiang and Qi Lingyang, who were standing on the side laughing, and then said to the pearl: "Okay, grandpa has flour on his hands now, and he will give you a bag in a while." ”

Su Xiang and Qi Lingyang walked up to say hello to the old man, Qi Haipeng shook his head, and Su Xiang asked, "Uncle Qi, what are you doing?"

The Qi family has servants, and the old man never goes to the kitchen.

Qi Haipeng glanced at the flour in his hand and said, "Knead the dough and make the skin of xiaolongbao." So saying, he turned and walked back into the house.

Qi Lingyang followed him and quipped: "Father, you are becoming more and more relaxed now. ”

After Qi Haipeng handed over the company to Qi Lingyang, he rarely asked about the company's affairs, which meant that he would enjoy happiness in his later years.

Qi Haipeng was in charge of the business in front of the Qi family, and then Qi Lingcong took over the baton, and when it was handed over to Qi Lingyang after some moves in the past few years, those old courtiers began to move. Qi Haipeng didn't ask about this, it all depends on how Qi Lingyang handles it, the demotion that should be demoted, the cut that should be cut, after some actions, the Qi family has stabilized, and no one dares to question the second son of Wen Run.

Qi Haipeng glanced at Qi Lingyang, and a light flashed in his elite eyes.

He kneaded the flour in the basin, waited for the bag with pearl eyes, obediently tiptoed to watch Qi Haipeng knead the dough, and after a while, he got interesting, stretched out his little hand and blended in.

Qi Haipeng hurriedly grabbed her little hand, pulled a small piece of dough and gave it to her to play with.

Qi Lingyang glanced at the pearls sitting on the small stool pinching flour and playing, turned his head to Qi Haipeng and said, "Father, do you have something to say to me?"

There was some sarcasm in that glance just now, but Qi Lingyang was sure that it was not aimed at him.

Qi Haipeng said: "A few days ago, at a gathering of a group of old guys, I chatted with Fu Zhengnan for a few words. ”

……

A few days ago, a wealthy businessman who had long retired from the Chamber of Commerce had a birthday banquet and invited some old friends of the Chamber of Commerce to go to the lively event, and Fu Zhengnan and Qi Haipeng were among the invitees.

Fu Zhengnan is the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and when he was in the middle of the day, he was surrounded by a group of people to compliment him, Qi Haipeng sat in a corner and drank tea leisurely, listening to the singing of Peking Opera on the stage.

Just when it was pleasant to listen to, a cold voice was inserted from the side: "Qi Haipeng, my son, can you use it easily?"

Qi Haipeng carried the lid of the teacup and took a sip of tea slowly, he raised his eyes and looked at Fu Zhengnan, who was standing behind him, and sneered, and put the teacup on the coffee table with a click, and a few drops of tea splashed on the table.

"Joke, your son?"

Since Yu Kelan married Qi Haipeng, the two don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, they never easily contact each other, and they avoid each other in business, even if they competed for the position of president of the Chamber of Commerce a few years ago, they were as calm as they saw on the surface. For so many years, Fu Zhengnan has never said this sentence in front of Qi Haipeng.

Fu Zhengnan's face froze, paced and sat down on the other side of the tea party, and said coldly to Qi Haipeng: "Whose kind is he, do you still need to verify it?"

At this time, the stage was singing to the high C tide, and the gongs and drums were beating intensively, which was quite thunderous.

Qi Haipeng rubbed his wrist unhurriedly: "Kelan married me, and the son he gave birth to was included in my household registration, and I raised him single-handedly. Fu Zhengnan, where did you get the face to say that it was your son?"

Fu Zhengnan was so angry in his heart that this was exactly what happened, although he recognized Qi Lingyang and taught him his skills, but Qi Lingyang always kept his distance from him, and now he actually went to do things for the Qi family.

Fu Zhengnan said with a stiff face: "If it weren't for Kelan to hide it, Ling Yang wouldn't-"

"Won't anything?" Qi Haipeng interrupted him and said with a sneer, "Won't you become my son?" Hehe, if you let your family Mrs. Zhuoya know, I'm afraid there is no possibility of even being born." ”

At that time, Mrs. Zhuo Ya, but the eldest lady of the Zhuo family, no one paid attention to it, and the woman who robbed her husband, could she let it go?

Yu Kelan married while pregnant with a child, it can be said that she is to avenge Fu Zhengnan's betrayal, and it can also be said that she is to protect her child. With such a big backer of the Qi family, Mrs. Zhuoya didn't dare to attack her. And she is also resolute in her heart for Fu Zhengnan, and she will never drag mud and water.

Fu Zhengnan was so annoyed that he became angry, and he suppressed his voice and said, "Qi Haipeng, you don't pretend to be great here." Ling Yang was raised by you, but how did you treat him? You never really treated him as your own son!"

If he was sincere, he would not ignore him, knowing that Qi Lingyang and Du Ruohan were on good terms, he also let Qi Lingcong marry Du Ruohan.

"If your son hadn't died, would you have let him take over the Qi clan?

Qi Haipeng's elite eyes raised, and he didn't deny it: "Yes, Ling Cong is dead, and I have to find Ling Yang back." As the saying goes, good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded with evil, and he is willing to come back to repay me, which is not a conflict. ”

"Fu Zhengnan, I don't understand why you're arguing with me at this time. The battle for the heir of your Fu family is over, didn't you hand over everything to Fu Hanchuan, why do you blow your beard and stare at me here?"

Qi Haipeng looked at Fu Zhengnan's blushing face coldly, the threshold of the Qi family was not as high as that of the Fu family, but he didn't take this current president in his eyes.

Fu Zhengnan was calm, and stared at Qi Haipeng with a slight red corner of his eyes. This old bastard, not to mention robbing his son, is also ready to make a big joke for their Fu family.

He said: "For the sake of your granddaughter, you let Qi Lingyang marry Su Xiang, Qi Haipeng, do you dare to say that you are a good person?"

"In order to let Qi Lingyang work for you, you handed over the Qi family to him, and when your granddaughter grows up in the future, you will kick him away, Qi Haipeng, this, you dare to say that you are a good person?"

Qi Haipeng smiled coldly: "The whole world only knows that there is only one Fu Hanchuan in your Fu family. My son marries Su Xiang, what does it have to do with you? I don't mind what kind of woman she is. is a love ambassador of the Disabled Persons' Federation, and has a career in hand, although he is not as good as those famous daughters, but he can eat on his own. ”

"What, she's eating your rice again?"

"You-" Fu Zhengnan was so angry that he wanted to slap the table and press the table to move, but because of the people around him, he could only endure it.

Qi Haipeng snorted coldly and continued: "If you want to say that I laid all this for the sake of pearls, I admit it. Our Qi family is such a blood, plan more for her, what's the problem?"

"If you want to say that I use Qi Lingyang, how will I treat him in the future, hehe, Fu Zhengnan, you and I are both people who are walking on that road to death......"

Qi Haipeng dragged out a long tail note in the last few words, and glanced at Fu Zhengnan with disdain. Since Qi Lingcong's death, he has seen a lot of things, power is like floating clouds, and children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren.

The corners of Fu Zhengnan's eyes twitched slightly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Aren't you afraid that Ling Yang will rob the Qi family?"

Qi Haipeng glanced at him: "I forgot to say, you don't need to use people without suspicion." Even if Qi Lingyang occupies the Qi family, he is still surnamed Qi. I'm not like you, I handed over the Fu family to Fu Hanchuan, and I have to think about reaching back again. ”

With Qi Lingyang's intentions for Su Xiang, it would be impossible for him to go back to be the eldest son of the Fu family, so Qi Haipeng didn't have to worry about it at all.

Only in the Qi family can Qi Lingyang marry Su Xiangguang.

In Fu Zhengnan's view, Qi Haipeng's hand was to win over Qi Lingyang and prevent him from recognizing his ancestors and returning to his ancestors. He clenched his fists and glared at Qi Haipeng angrily.

At this time, someone came over to say hello: "President Fu, Brother Haipeng, how can you two talk?"

Fu Zhengnan put away his expression, Qi Haipeng picked up the teacup and took a sip, as if the argument did not exist.

……

The white dough became more and more tenacious under Qi Haipeng's hands, he poked the dough, raised his eyes and said to Qi Lingyang: "He has the intention of letting you recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors." ”

Qi Lingyang looked at the round flour ball in the basin and said lightly: "The dust has fallen." ”

In his opinion, the battle of the heirs three years ago has ended, and each has its place.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and Fu Hanchuan's face that was bound to Su Xiang appeared in his mind, and his fingers curled.

Qi Haipeng glanced at him: "Oh, by the way, he is very concerned about your marriage to Su Xiang." ”

The reason why Fu Zhengnan was so angry about Qi Lingyang's marriage with Su Xiang was that one day in the future, Qi Lingyang's identity would be revealed, and at that time, the two were married, and it was really not a good thing for the Fu family, whose face glory was more important than everything.

Therefore, Fu Zhengnan wanted Qi Lingyang to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, with the intention of preventing their marriage.

Qi Ling pursed his lips and said indifferently: "So what?"

Not to mention whether he wants to go back or not, even if he goes back, he only needs Su Xiang, how can he tolerate him?

In the evening, a table of sumptuous dishes was spread out on the table, as well as crab roe xiaolongbao made by Qi Haipeng himself.

Pearl remembered her bag in her heart, and before taking the seat, she grabbed the corner of Qi Haipeng's clothes and said coquettishly: "Grandpa, the bag is ......"

Qi Haipeng waved his hand, and several subordinates lined up the brand-name bags that he hastily bought from the mall at noon on the sofa, and Qi Haipeng said to his granddaughter dotingly: "The bag, it's all yours." As he spoke, he looked at Su Xiang, "Which one do you like, take it all away in a while." ”

Pearl glanced at those brand-name bags and wrinkled her little face: "No, it's a bag......"

"Isn't this a bag?" Qi Haipeng was confused, Su Xiang smiled and said, "Uncle Qi, she said a red envelope." Happy New Year, bring the red envelope. ”

I don't know what year it was a popular stalk, Xiao Cheng taught pearls, so that this girl was worried, who knew that the old man didn't know about this stalk, and he unknowingly let people prepare so many bags.

Qi Haipeng glanced at his granddaughter, and was amused by her again: "There are red envelopes, of course there are ......"

It's lively here, but the Fu family's old house is not so lively.

The group first went to the annex next to him to give Old Man Fu a New Year's salute, and Mrs. Zhuo Ya looked at Old Man Fu's increasingly gray body, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly. This year, the old man didn't even have the strength to say a few words, so he waved his hand to go back after handing out a red envelope.

When she walked downstairs, Mrs. Zhuoya said: "The old man's health is getting worse and worse, and the doctor's meaning is to last another half a year at most." ”

Fu Zhengnan's face was cold: "Half a year?" He moved his eyebrows, glanced at Fu Hanchuan and didn't say anything, raised his feet and walked downstairs first.

Eating the same Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, a table of people sat on a huge round table, but there was no sound. It's not just the old man's affairs that make people's hearts dull, the Fu family is like this every year, but tonight there are a little more thoughts, even the youngest Fu Ying eats obediently.

After dinner, the Fu family prepared fireworks and firecrackers as in previous years, and the fireworks soared into the sky, bursting in the air, blooming a tree of fire and silver flowers, crackling for a while, but there was no happy expression on the faces of the few people watching below.

This is also a strange scene, who is not happy for the New Year, and there are not a few cheers to see such a beautiful scenery?

On the way back, Fu Ying touched the lock of the car door, glanced at Fu Hanchuan and said: "Dad, why don't you protect your mother and let her be scolded by her grandparents?"

He didn't understand it before, but he still remembers that every time his mother went to the old house, she was very reluctant, and she never used sign language over there.

Now he understands why, grandparents don't like his mother, but why doesn't his father protect her?

"Dad, don't you like Mom too, bully her?"

Fu Hanchuan drove the car, and when he heard this, his fingers slipped, and the car twisted to stabilize it.

He glanced at Fu Ying, his teeth tightened, and he stepped on the accelerator to the bottom: "Shut up!"

Fu Ying pursed his lips and turned his head to look out of the car window: "Hmph, in the future, I will protect her, I will be better than you." ”

Fu Hanchuan glanced at the back of Fu Ying's head and was stunned, no wonder he took the initiative to start doing his homework and not fish in troubled waters.

Su Xiang, this woman...... The corners of Fu Hanchuan's lips hooked, and the car sped past.

Fireworks are usually prohibited in Beicheng, but they are allowed during the Chinese New Year. All the way through, fireworks bloomed, one extinguished and one rose again, one after another, bright as day.
