Chapter 158: The Four Great Families

The past ten days of getting along have made Chen Ran's figure more and more profound in Qin Mengyao's heart.

Even if she wasn't in the same car, even just hearing his voice over the intercom made her feel at ease.

So unconsciously, Chen Ran has become another important person in her heart in addition to her father and grandfather.

It's just that maybe she herself isn't fully aware of this yet.

At this time, for her sister's ridicule, Qin Mengyao felt that her face was hot.

But he still pretended to be slightly angry and said: "You little girl, what are you talking nonsense!" ”

Qin Mengxue said distressedly: "Otherwise, sister! Are you willing to marry the guy named Liu Ziheng from the Liu family? ”

She continued, "I heard that before we left for Dongzhou, that guy's grandfather came to our house to talk to him about your marriage!" Although Grandpa didn't agree yet, he didn't immediately refuse. ”

"Humph!" Qin Mengxue couldn't help but "snort" heavily at this time, and then continued: "I really don't know what grandpa thinks, that Liu Ziheng knows that he is not a good person at a glance!" I also heard Wang Dazui in our class say that Liu Ziheng is an out-and-out playboy outside! How can such a person be worthy of you, sister! ”

Although Qin Mengyao was very confused at this time, she gently patted her sister's little hand and said, "Why are you calling people nicknames again!" Uncle Wang is my father's comrade-in-arms, and the two are now partners, how can you give Wang Chao such a nickname! ”

Qing Mengxue playfully stuck out her tongue and said coquettishly: "What does it matter!" Everyone in our class called him that, and he was very happy to agree. He's a big mouth, he'll say anything! ”

Sister Qin Mengyao said that the Liu and Wang families they talked about are one of the four major families in Kyoto Prefecture together with the Qin family. The four families are intertwined, with checks and balances on each other, but also alliances.

In-laws are one of the most common means of union.

Liu Ziheng's grandfather is the contemporary patriarch of the Liu family, and in the past few decades, although the relationship between the Liu family and the Qin family has not yet reached the level of incompatibility, it is common for them to compete with each other on various occasions, and naturally they cannot talk about a good relationship.

In this case, the patriarch of the Liu family suddenly came to visit the old man, and the matter naturally spread all at once.

As for the content of the conversation, because it was an impromptu meeting, there were not many people present.

But there are several versions coming out.

The content is different, but the only thing in common is that Old Man Liu proposed to Old Man Qin on behalf of his eldest grandson, Liu Ziheng.

And the object of courtship, that is, Qin Mengyao!

Liu Ziheng, Qin Mengyao has actually heard of it.

The reviews are really not very good!

Leaving Qin Mengyao alone, she herself categorically doesn't look down on such a person!

It's just that being born in a big family also has the bad of a big family, although life is rich and there is no trouble with money, but there are many rules.

The influence of feudal traditional culture is deeply rooted in the big family that has been inherited for thousands of years, and it does not mean that those traditions can be completely abandoned at once after entering a democratic society.

For example, the marriage of the children of the family, especially the direct descendants of the family, the first thing to talk about is to be the right person.

The orders of parents and the words of matchmakers still have a great influence.

Of course, it is not that there is no free love, Qin Mengyao's parents are married in free love.

Qin Mengyao and Qin Mengxue's father, Qin Shouyi, is the second eldest of the Qin family. When he was young, he was a soldier in Dongzhou Xia City.

The reason why he came so far from Kyoto Prefecture back then was actually to avoid the rights and wrongs of Kyoto Prefecture.

He was different from those noble sons in Kyoto at that time, he was upright and upright, and he felt tired of the above tricks.

So after graduating from the military academy, he was transferred to Dongzhou alone.

At that time, he was only a small company commander. By chance, he met Yu Yanqiu, who was only 18 years old at the time, that is, the mother of Qin Mengyao and Qin Mengxue's sisters.

The young Yu Yanqiu looked so handsome and lovely, and Qin Shouyi was immediately shocked when he saw it.

Who is he, Qin Shouyi? The second son of the head of the Qin family, the four major families in Kyoto Prefecture, although he is not smug, but the confidence of the family is there.

After identifying this girl, Qin Shouyi immediately gave full play to the various advantages of the second ancestor chasing the girl, and this back and forth was really chased by Qin Shouyi. Later, the two really got married.

But the process in the middle is not that simple. The two were in love for a total of six years before getting married.

In the middle from the family is all kinds of pressure constantly.

They didn't completely oppose it, and they eventually got married.

That's actually because Yu Yanqiu's family is not simple.

His grandfather was the founding hero of the People's Republic of China, with the rank of lieutenant general, and his father was also a major general division commander at that time, and Qin Shouyi was the division leader at that time.

Otherwise, how could an 18-year-old girl appear in the barracks for no reason. It was the father who went down to the grassroots level to inspect and brought it over to play together. So it's also a good match.

Even so, there is so much pressure in the family, so you can imagine how difficult it is to fall in love freely among the children of the family.

Most of the time, they can only obey the family's arrangements and marry other families who are close to each other.

in order to strive for the maximum interests of the family.

Of course, for the elders, such an arrangement is not necessarily a disadvantage to the children.

After all, there are so many people who want to enter a wealthy family and can't get in!

In short, Qin Mengyao was quite helpless, she and her sister insisted on going to Xia City to study, why didn't they have the same thoughts as their father back then!

Thinking of a lot of miscellaneous things, Qin Mengyao was a little depressed and walked back to the hotel with her sister.

On the side of the fire truck, Chen Ran was still looked around by a group of warblers and Yanyan, and they were a little overwhelmed.

At this time, Zhang Xiangdong, Chen Shuyuan and others came over, and Zhang Xiangdong said with a wicked smile: "I said classmates, I have also made a lot of contributions to the team, you also handed me water and towels, right?" Don't always revolve around the captain alone! ”

A group of female classmates immediately ran away giggling.

When Zhang Xiangdong saw this situation, he walked up to Chen Ran and said with a hurt face: "Am I ugly?" ”

"It's not pretty enough!" Chen Ran joked.

Zhang Xiangdong suddenly said unhappily: "Cut, what are you talking about!" I'm a man! ”

Everyone laughed for a while, but Chen Ran quickly got serious and asked, "Fatty, Master Tan, haven't they come back yet?" ”

Zhang Xiangdong shook his head solemnly: "Yes." Do you want to wait any longer? ”

"Hey!" Chen Ran sighed and shook his head: "No need, tell everyone to pack up their things, let's go immediately!" ”
