Chapter 412: Hongmen Banquet
And Zeng Jinghong, who was on the lower left hand side of the old lady Zeng, slapped his palm on the table and shouted angrily: "It's the other thing, doesn't she know that the marriage of the children and grandchildren of the Zeng family is decided by the family?" ”
Zeng Peipei was really taken aback by this palm, and her face changed dramatically: "Dad, it's because I'm not strict with discipline, don't be angry, you have to worry about your body." ”
Zeng Jinghong is Zeng Peipei's biological father and the fourth brother of Mrs. Zeng. Frail since childhood, less than seventy, already gray-haired, rickety, and looks older than Mrs. Zeng. has average talent, does not recruit elders, and has lived in the shadow of several elder brothers all his life.
Zeng Jinghong stood up and said to the old lady Zeng: "Second brother, I have no way to discipline me, and I have a disobedient girl, and I will admit this matter no matter how you want to punish me." ”
He's taking responsibility.
If this responsibility falls on the heads of Zeng Peipei and his wife, the little family wealth that the two of them have worked hard for 20 years to accumulate will probably be gone, and Peifeng may have to give up to other branches of the family.
Therefore, he must take the responsibility this time.
"Dad!"
Old lady Zeng said to a few old friends: "A few old fellows, let you see the joke." ”
The old man just now said: "What did Zeng Lao say, now the times have changed, children have strong personalities, and those dogs in my family are like this, just teach them slowly." ”
Old lady Zeng smiled wryly and shook her head helplessly.
It seems that he has suppressed his anger and will not be angry, but in fact, he is already angry in his heart, and he grits his teeth with hatred.
The lady just now hurriedly said, "Old lady, the people of the Chen family are here. ”
Now the people in the room are not calm.
Old lady Zeng stood up involuntarily.
Old man Chen categorically will not come in person, the Zeng family is far from having this qualification, not to mention that there is no marriage, even if there is a marriage, there is no such qualification, so it may be an elder of the Chen family, then it can't be that the old lady Zeng will come out to greet him personally, and his brother will take a group of people to greet him.
And he continued to greet guests.
It didn't take long for people to come in.
Old lady Zeng was still taken aback when she saw someone coming: "Second Master Chen! ”
It was an old man with an elegant face, followed by a young man in his thirties, quite handsome, with an arrogant face, it was Zhou Biyao's ex-husband, Chen Zhi, who married the Zeng family.
Second Master Chen entered the door with a smile on his face: "I wish Old Lady Zeng good health and a higher life expectancy." ”
Chen Zhi also said: "I wish the old lady Zeng a long life and good health. ”
Hurry up and hand over the gifts.
Speaking of which, this is the first time Zeng Peipei and his wife have met Chen Zhi. This person is well-known in the imperial capital, and in terms of appearance and bearing, to be honest, Zhang Fan is much worse than him.
One looks like a dead dick, and the other is a son.
The gap is so obvious!
Old Mrs. Zeng said: "Thank you very much, Second Master Chen, ...... quickly Please take a seat. ”
Madame soaked again.
"Second Master Chen......"
Of course, Old Lady Zeng understood what Second Master Chen was talking about, and he knew that he was at a loss, and it was a little difficult to speak, but Unexpectedly, Second Master Chen interrupted him and said: "Eh, Old Lady Zeng, this young man, especially young people nowadays, all advocate freedom and disobedience, especially in the matter of marriage, the country does not also advocate free love, and it doesn't matter if you have a boyfriend, we Chen Zhi have all been divorced." ”
Hearing Second Master Chen's words, Zeng Lao's heart was relieved.
"Not to mention that Chu Pujia is only eighteen, she is not of legal age, even if she marries Chen Zhi, she will have to wait until she turns twenty years old two years later to take effect, you say, isn't it."
His words directly denied the fact that Chu Pujia was married.
Old lady Zeng said happily again and again.
The people present also understood that the Chen family was really sincere in their marriage, and they didn't plan to care about Chu Pujia's illegal marriage certificate.
The people present couldn't help but secretly envy Chu Pujia's good life, and he could turn evil into good fortune when he came out of this situation.
The seventh sister gritted her teeth angrily.
Zeng Jinghong also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Who is the other party?"
Second Master Chen was so full that he didn't even have time to investigate the details of the other party.
Few people present could answer that.
Zeng Peipei didn't know how to answer for a while, how to describe Mr. Zhang, and was thinking about it in her head, but the seventh sister said first: "I asked, and I said that it was a North Drifter." ”
This Beipiao sounds like an ordinary adjective to ordinary people, but to the people of the imperial capital, it is actually a derogatory term, and the seventh sister is of course belittling Zhang Fan when she says this.
Second Master Chen smiled proudly, and couldn't help shaking his head, a northward drifter...... How can a North Drifter be compared with Chen Lao's grandson?
Chen Zhi was already a generation of leaders in the political and business circles of the imperial capital at a young age, and many sons and brothers looked to him, one was the sludge on the ground, and the other was an eagle in the sky.
Is this still a choice?
Old lady Zeng frowned slightly, how could the daughter of the Zeng family be so depraved!!
Zeng Peipei explained: "Mr. Zhang is not only a North Drifter, he has his own company, and he is very powerful......
Old lady Zeng's eyes swept away, where did Zeng Peipei dare to say more, in the eyes of Old Lady Zeng, how could a mere businessman be compared with the Chen family, even if it was the Yi family in Jiangning, the Zhou family in Shenhai could not be compared with the Chen family.
The guests present also shook their heads with a light smile, feeling that Zeng Peipei was too short-sighted, and how could a mere businessman compare with Old Chen's grandson even if he had a lot of money. Even if you are on the wealth list, if you don't have enough strength to protect money, you're just a lamb to the slaughter after all, and if you have power, will you still have no money? Can't even see through this point?
What ignorant women and children!
Zeng Peipei wanted to speak and stopped, Zhang Fan's matter could be explained clearly in a few words, originally he still wanted to explain it to the old lady, but now if he said it in front of the Chen family, wouldn't he be suspected of disliking the Chen family, and it would be bad if he offended the Chen family.
Second Master Chen said: "My Fair Lady and Gentleman are good, beautiful things are always desirable. ”
Old lady Zeng nodded again and again.
Walking out of the door of the Zeng family, the faces of Second Master Chen and Chen Zhi sank, especially Chen Zhi's eyes flashed with murderous intent, this kind of thing is unbearable for a man, although he has never seen Chu Pujia, and he may not like that girl, but now it has involved the dignity of the Chen family, and his Chen Dashao's face, if this is spread out, it is said that he was given green, how can he come out and mix in the future?
"I really don't understand, grandpa has to ask me to marry this girl from the Zeng family, what a century-old wealthy family, all fucking shit."
Second Master Chen said: "Your grandfather is for your good, this Chu Pujia was born with a portrait of a nobleman, extremely rich, you marry her to ensure that you are prosperous and rich, and it is not a star and a half that is better than the other candidate daughters." ”
Chen Zhi bowed his head and was silent.
The entourage on the side said: "Young Zhi, Young Master Lin Miao, they have come to Jinling, do you want to see them?" ”
Chen Zhi said: "It's good to come, I'm going to make a move to show that my Chen family is a little childish, and it's really good for my little brothers to come out." ”
At this time, the night will be dark, and fireworks will be set off along the river from time to time.
It's beautiful.
Chu Pujia hung up the phone, her face was gloomy, and her good-looking beauty was all condensed together.
"What's the matter?"
"It's my brother Xiaojun who called, saying that he wanted to invite us to dinner...... "Chu Pujia's clear eyes flashed a trace of anxiety: "I said I wanted to see you." ”
Zhang Fan smiled faintly and said, "What is this, why don't you eat." ”
Chu Pujia saw Zhang Fan's indifferent appearance, and glanced at Zhang Fan angrily, but he was very anxious in his heart, how could he know the situation of his family, this meal was even worse than the Hongmen banquet.
But no one can help her in this matter, including her parents, Pu Jia's heart is very helpless at this time, but the stupid husband on the other side is still ignorant.
"Otherwise, forget it."
"There's no need to meet with them, after greeting my old lady, we'll leave and return to the imperial capital."
Zhang Fan said: "Why don't you just have a meal?" Don't eat for nothing, don't eat. ”
Chu Pujia almost ran out of breath to carry it.
Zhang Fan said: "Then it's not your cousin, they will still beat me?" ”
Chu Pujia said: "It's really possible. "In fact, I know in my heart that it may be more than this.
Zhang Fan said: "It's okay, your husband is very good at fighting, and it is not a problem to deal with more than a dozen strong men alone." ”
"You, just blow it."
"Then we'll go eat, and if they embarrass you, I'll fight with them."
