Chapter 36: We Are Not Suitable
The matter of proposing relatives was not discussed, and Song Xueyi did not continue to dwell on this issue.
The two sides have been fighting together for most of their lives, and it can be said that they know each other no less than brothers. He knew that whether the matter in Jiang Hongtao's mouth was true or not, he would never let go again.
We have to think about it another way.
Song Wenchang showed a brief gaffe when he heard the news that Jiang Tiantong was in love, and after Song Xueyi reprimanded him, he quickly adjusted his mood.
In the ensuing conversation, he sat expressionless and silent.
The idea of proposing marriage was something he came up with, and since the pursuit of Jiang Tiantong was fruitless, he planned to start from within the Jiang family first.
Although he had long expected that Jiang Hongtao was likely to refuse, he still felt a little unwilling, Jiang Tiantong could only belong to himself!
After chatting for a while, Song Xueyi got up and said goodbye to Jiang Hongtao.
Song Wenchang, who was following him, bowed down politely to say goodbye even if his request was refused.
After the two went out, Jiang Hongtao's eyes lit up, and he looked at the backs of the two of them and seemed to be talking freely to himself: "This old fox is really a good calculation." ”
Then, Jiang Hongtao turned to Tang Shuo and said, "Be careful of this Song Wenchang, this kid is not simple." ”
Tang Shuo nodded, indicating that he had memorized Jiang Hongtao's words.
As for what Jiang Hongtao said about his relationship with Jiang Tiantong, Tang Shuo didn't mention it again, this was obviously just an excuse for Jiang Hongtao to reject the Song family.
Not long after Song Xueyi and Song Wenchang left, another man came in at the door, the man was about forty years old, wearing an old-fashioned Mao suit, and as soon as he entered the door, he said to Jiang Hongtao: "Dad, who came just now." ”
"Song Xueyi." Jiang Hongtao replied.
"Why did he come to our house all of a sudden?" The man asked.
"It's a proposal to Tiantong." Jiang Hongtao said. "This guy is really calculating, and he wants to directly rely on this trick to absorb my Jiang family without bloodshed."
The man fell silent, then looked at Tang Shuo, who was standing beside Jiang Hongtao, and asked, "Dad, who is this?" ”
"I'm a nephew, I'll introduce you later."
…………
At noon, more than a dozen men and women of different ages had come to the Jiang family's villa, and Jiang Tiantong and Jiang Tianwei also rushed back very rarely.
At lunchtime, Jiang Hongtao appeared at the dinner table with Tang Shuo, and introduced to everyone at the table: "This is Tang Shuo, one of my nephews, and he will be his family in the future." ”
Subsequently, Jiang Hongtao introduced the other people in the villa to Tang Shuo one by one.
Tang Shuo looked at the members of the Jiang family in the room, in addition to Jiang Tianwei and Jiang Tiantong, there were three people who impressed Tang Shuo, one was Jiang Tiantong's fourth uncle Jiang Kaiji, the other was Jiang Tiantong's cousin Jiang Zhiming, and the other was Jiang Tiantong's cousin Jiang Xiangyun.
Jiang Kaiji is the first middle-aged man in his forties to come back, and he is currently serving as the vice minister of the Ministry of Energy, and he is the only one in the Jiang family who has developed in terms of career.
However, due to its own limited ability, even with the help of the Jiang family, it is difficult to take a step forward.
Jiang Zhiming is a young man in his twenties, but if you look at his appearance, it is difficult to classify the other party in the Jiang family.
Maybe it's really a genetic problem, everyone in the Jiang family looks much better than ordinary people, especially Jiang Tianwei and Jiang Tiantong, the brothers and sisters, who are synonymous with handsome men and beautiful women.
But this Jiang Zhiming is a little unbearable, a pair of eyes are narrow and drooping, leaking a sinister feeling, which makes people feel a little uncomfortable when they look at it.
Jiang Xiangyun was full of smiles when he saw Tang Shuo, with the sleek personality of a stock marketer, and the cold Jiang Tiantong completely belonged to people from two worlds.
After Jiang Hongtao finished introducing everyone, Tang Shuo nodded with a smile and said, "Hello everyone, I'm Tang Shuo." ”
In another scene, I believe no one will care about Tang Shuo, these people in the room are all sons and brothers with eyes higher than the sky, how can they deign to be strong Tang Shuo?
But because of Jiang Hongtao's presence, everyone still said hello to Tang Shuo, but the perfunctory taste was difficult to hide at all.
After the introduction, Jiang Zhiming suddenly said: "When I first came, I saw that the Song family seemed to have come, what did they do?" ”
"Door-to-door propose." Jiang Hongtao said: "The Song family wants to form a family with our Jiang family. ”
As he spoke, Jiang Hongtao glanced at Tang Shuo meaningfully.
"Oh." Jiang Zhiming's eyes lit up, and he said: "This is a good thing, if our Jiang family and the Song family marry, then who else in Yanjing will dare to challenge our Jiang family in the future?" ”
"Yes, I think Zhiming is right." A young man chimed in: "Cousin Tiantong and Song Wenchang are indeed very compatible, a godsend." ”
"I think it's a good match, too." Jiang Xiangyun opened his mouth and said, "In this way, our Jiang family and the Song family can also become a stable alliance. ”
“……”
With the exception of a few who did not speak, most of the room agreed with the proposal and expressed great optimism.
Jiang Tiantong sat silently on the side, slowly eating the meal in front of her, as if the topic everyone said had nothing to do with her.
Jiang Tianwei was excited, so he almost stood up and applauded, he really felt that his sister and Song Wenchang were very compatible.
Song Wenchang has a very good personal relationship with him and has always taken good care of him.
Just a few days ago, Song Wenchang lent him a sports car that his sister had been refusing to buy for him.
Of course, this sports car does not completely depend on his mood.
"I've already rejected the Song family." Jiang Hongtao interrupted everyone's discussion and spoke.
"Grandpa, why is that?" Jiang Zhiming asked.
"I decided to marry Tiantong to Tang Shuo." Jiang Hongtao explained.
After listening to Jiang Hongtao's explanation, the room instantly fell silent, and the atmosphere could be heard. Everyone stopped what they were doing and digested the words in Jiang Hongtao's mouth.
After a long time, there was a discussion in the room.
A man in his thirties glanced at Tang Shuo and said directly: "How can this work, how can this Tang Shuo be worthy of Tiantong?" ”
"Yes."
"Grandpa, do you want to think about it again?"
“……”
Jiang Tiantong glanced up at Tang Shuo in some surprise at this time, but soon she lowered her head again.
Jiang Tianwei opened his mouth wide, and seemed a little unable to accept the news.
He had a good impression of Tang Shuo, the other party could take him to fight together, and stand up to help him out at a critical moment, which had fully won his favor.
But when it comes to marrying his sister to Tang Shuo and letting Tang Shuo be his brother-in-law, Jiang Tianwei feels a little unacceptable.
The gap between Tang Shuo and her sister is too big!
"I've already decided on this." Jiang Hongtao glanced at everyone and said. "Tang Shuo, what do you mean?"
Tang Shuo just took a mouthful of pot-wrapped meat, and before he could put it into his mouth, he heard Jiang Hongtao's inquiry, and he didn't eat it for a while, and he didn't put it down.
He thought that Jiang Hongtao was just talking about this topic to deal with the Song family, but he didn't expect Jiang Hongtao to ask himself so solemnly.
Is it to stimulate the people of the Jiang family? But it doesn't seem to work.
Tang Shuo stuffed the pot wrapped meat into his mouth, and after eating it slowly, he said to Jiang Hongtao: "Isn't it a little too sudden? Or are you thinking about it? ”
"I've already figured it out." Jiang Hongtao looked at Tang Shuo and said, "It's up to you now." ”
Tang Shuo glanced at Jiang Tiantong, who was sitting opposite, full of immortal energy, and shook his head and said, "No need, I don't think we are suitable!" ”
If Jiang Hongtao's announcement that Jiang Tiantong would be married to Tang Shuo just now surprised everyone, then now Tang Shuo's refusal is tantamount to dropping an atomic bomb around everyone!
A poor boy who came out of nowhere actually rejected the first beauty in Yanjing!
This made everyone start to doubt their ears.
If Jiang Tiantong rejected Tang Shuo, it would be normal in their eyes.
But Tang Shuo rejected Jiang Tiantong, so the meaning of this matter was not the same at all! When did the Jiang family fall into such a situation, and they were unwilling to find someone to marry!
Jiang Tiantong was also a little surprised by Tang Shuo's answer, and looked at Tang Shuo with a frown.
The reason why she didn't open her mouth to refuse her grandfather Jiang Hongtao's proposal was because she knew that her grandfather would not do it for no reason.
Whether it is pretending or having other intentions, Grandpa will definitely explain to her later.
But Tang Shuo actually refused so bluntly, did he really dislike himself?
Jiang Hongtao put down his chopsticks with a 'snap' and asked, "Do you think our family Tiantong is not worthy of you?" ”
"Of course not." Tang Shuo replied, "It's just that I'm not worthy of Tiantong." ”
Tang Shuo only found out at this time that Jiang Hongtao really wanted to match himself and Jiang Tiantong, but is this possible?
Now that my own affairs have not been dealt with, my senior sister still doesn't know where it is, and she has a lot of troubles on herself.
What's more, with his physical condition, how can he marry Jiang Tiantong?
"We'll talk about that later." Jiang Hongtao said with a frown. "Eat first."
