343. Threats
and Huo Bufan, Li Enli met for the first time, and this cousin who was connected by blood made him very curious. Especially when he saw Huo Bufan being besieged, he felt a sense of sympathy in his heart.
Those few partial-side brothers who rushed towards Huo Bufan made Ning Xueqing's face full of panic, and she didn't know what to do.
At this moment, I suddenly heard someone shouting: "What a fuss!" If you don't eat well, get out! ”
It was none other than Li Shengbin, the fourth elder of the Li family.
Li Shengbin stood at the door of the dining room belonging to the juniors, glaring at all this, his face full of unhappiness.
When the nephew returned to the family, he was not as obedient as he imagined, which already made the old lady dissatisfied with him. Now this group of off-the-beaten-house brothers is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, which makes him even more angry.
Don't think there's enough chaos at home?
Seeing that Li Shengbin was coming, those people didn't want to do it again, they stopped, and one of them said: "Fourth uncle, it's not that we are unreasonable, it's that this guy is too arrogant." I heard that he beat Sister Qiyun today, saying that she couldn't get married, and even the old lady's door was kicked and broken by him. How can such a person stay in our Li family? ”
Li Qiyun is the woman who was pushed to the ground by Huo Bufan during the day, and coincidentally, she is Li Shengbin's eldest daughter.
For the sake of this daughter, Li Shengbin was also scolded by the old lady.
The son doesn't teach, the father's fault, the daughter's reputation is not good, and the father is to blame.
Li Shengbin also wants to teach his daughter well, but he doesn't have that ability.
When I was a child, I didn't teach it, but when I grew up and had my own thoughts, it would be difficult to change it.
After Li Qiyun went back, he sued Li Shengbin, but was scolded by Li Shengbin.
I all know that this nephew is back to help the master's family in power, and even I don't want to offend him too much, didn't I see the meeting in the morning, and the old lady was dismissed by him and didn't say anything?
You're usually eye-catching enough at home, and now you're messing around with others!
Li Qiyun wanted her father to help her out, but she was scolded and bloody, so in a fit of anger, she went out to find someone to go to the bar.
Anyway, they all say that I can't get married, so I don't marry at all, and the law doesn't stipulate that women must marry.
All in all, the current Li Shengbin is a headache.
His arrival calmed the scene a little quieter, and the complaints of those few partial-side brothers made Li Shengbin even more unhappy.
He looked at those people with a calm face and said, "The people at home, you don't need to worry about it, you should eat, if you don't want to eat, get out!" Don't you cook at home, come here to eat! ”
Several of the off-the-beaten-path brothers were stunned by him, and their faces suddenly became ugly.
We are helping your daughter get back face, you are an old man, why did you come up and scold us first?
They also know that Li Shengbin wants to rely on his illegitimate son to give the main family a line of power, but your flattery is too obvious.
When did the head of the Li family need to please others like this?
After scolding those few off-the-beaten-way brothers, Li Shengbin walked up to Huo Bufan again and said in a cold voice: "This is the Li family, not the kind of small place you stayed in before, the family is big and there are many rules, you have to learn to adapt." ”
Li Shengbin's tone is not good, but his words sound quite pleasant, at least he doesn't say some messy and unpleasant things like others.
Of course, no matter what he said, Huo Bufan didn't plan to give too much face.
For a family like the Li family, the more they don't give face, the better it is for themselves. Otherwise, if you mix with them too much, you will only increase your troubles.
It's just that Ning Xueqing knew her husband's character, so she immediately pulled him and didn't let Huo Bufan speak, but she said to Li Shengbin: "Thank you Fourth Uncle for reminding us, we will remember." ”
is still the same sentence, Ning Xueqing's existence has always been a contradiction in the main family. From the perspective of family interests, Li Shengbin hopes that this woman will disappear.
But at this moment, Ning Xueqing is so well-behaved and obedient, which can be regarded as giving him face.
His expression eased slightly, Li Shengbin nodded slightly, and didn't say anything more.
The chef packed the rice and handed it to Huo Bufan.
Huo Bufan took it in his hand, and didn't say hello to Li Shengbin, pulling Ning Xueqing to leave.
Looking at his sideways, Li Shengbin's nose was crooked.
I was kind enough to come over to help him out, and I didn't say thank you, but I behaved so coldly!
Huo Bufan and Ning Xueqing couldn't get out of the dining room and were stopped again.
This time, it was the big housekeeper Cao Heming who stopped him, and next to Cao Heming was an old lady with a dragon's head cane.
Glancing at the lunch box in Huo Bufan's hand, the old lady said nonchalantly: "Why, can't you eat here?" ”
It was the first time Ning Xueqing had seen this person in power of the Li family, although she didn't know the identity of the other party, but looking at her appearance, she knew that she had a lot of origin. I want to say hello, but I don't know what to shout.
Fortunately, Huo Bufan answered in time and said, "I really can't eat, so it's better to go back and be quiet." ”
"Your temperament is a bit similar to the third child." The old lady snorted and said, "Our Li family should be like this, when we meet someone who doesn't want to talk, we won't talk to him." But since I'm here, you can wait a minute, I have a few words to say to you. ”
If Ning Xueqing was not by his side, Huo Bufan would definitely refuse directly.
Now his wife was holding his arm, and he couldn't walk, so he had to stand there and listen.
The old lady looked at him and said, "You said before that our Li family is very backward, and even the housekeeper is incompetent. I would like to ask you now, do you feel qualified to say this? ”
"Absolutely." Huo Bufan said without hesitation.
His level, not to mention Cao Heming, even if he is an old lady, he is 108,000 miles away from him.
Hearing Huo Bufan's confident words, many people next to him sneered, just now you said that others were bragging, but now you are also blowing it yourself?
The old lady didn't roll her eyes like the others, but sighed and said, "Since you said there is, then I'll give you a task." Tomorrow morning, the chairman of the Jiangnan factory will come over to discuss cooperation, you take down his order, I can give you a little authority. If you can't take it, you will give me an honest divorce, and then marry the woman I let you marry, and from then on you will be a cow and a horse in the Li family, and work hard and complain! ”
Hearing the old lady's words, Ning Xueqing's face suddenly turned a little pale.
She didn't expect that the old lady would be so straightforward and say such things in front of so many people.
For a while, Ning Xueqing felt aggrieved, aggrieved, and even more indignant.
Even if she knew that divorce would be of great benefit to her husband, why did she decide on the marriage of the two like this?
Just because your surname is Li, do you take advantage of it!
In contrast, Huo Bufan's performance is more clear.
"I refuse." Huo Bufan looked at the old lady and said calmly: "Who I marry as a wife has nothing to do with you, and it has nothing to do with the Li family." Don't talk about you, even if you are my biological parents, they don't have the right to decide my marriage. I've already said what I need to say, if you still think you can pinch me as a soft persimmon, then you're looking for the wrong person! ”
After that, Huo Bufan pulled Ning Xueqing to bypass the old lady.
However, the next moment, Cao Heming waved his hand, and immediately nearly ten bodyguards rushed forward and surrounded the two of them.
The old lady's slightly indifferent voice came into her ears: "What do you think this place is?" This is the Li family! It's not a place where you can come and go when you want! I just heard you say that whoever thinks they are better than you will come up with evidence. It's the same now, if you think our Li family is unreasonable, come up with evidence that can stand. If you can't prove that what you say is right, what right do you have to be here to talk crookedly. ”
Glancing at the bodyguards in a circle, Huo Bufan's face sank slightly, and he turned to the old lady and said, "If I want to leave, these people can't stop me." ”
"Then I don't know very well if they can stop you, but even if they can't stop you now, what if you run away, with the strength of our Li family, if you want to make your life restless, do you think you can live well?" The old lady said.
This can already be regarded as a naked threat, Huo Bufan stared at him and said, "I don't think you can make me have a bad life, but you have forced me to be anxious, and the Li family may be unlucky first." ”
"Really? Then I'll really wait and see. The old lady was unmoved, and she didn't think Huo Bufan's words were credible, she looked at Ning Xueqing and asked, "How many years have you been married to him?" ”
