222. Compromise

Really!

When the Qi family was thinking about replacing Qi Rui with Qi Peng, they also thought about what the Xu family would do, and the biggest possibility was that Xu Ting would replace Xu Shu, and now what the Li family said confirmed the Qi family's conjecture.

After a long time, Mrs. Qi said ambiguously, "Although there is a precedent for the matter of surrogating relatives, but only because one of the two parties to the marriage died, now that Brother Rui and Shu Yatou are both alive and well, the matter of surrogate relatives may not be feasible!" ”

The Li family couldn't help but speak, what Mrs. Qi said was reasonable, she couldn't refute it, and she saw that the meaning of the Qi family had never taken the initiative to mention the marriage from beginning to end, and now she finally put it up with her face, but the Qi family still repeatedly prevaricated, the Qi family wanted to deny it? Lee's face was not good.

"That's what the old lady said! Sister Shu is indeed a good life, yes, but her situation is different from ordinary people, naturally it can't be measured by common sense, if the Qi family is willing to fulfill the marriage contract to marry Sister Shu like the first emperor, then our Xu family naturally has no opinion! ”

The Li family expected that compared with the blind Xu Shu, the Qi family would still be more willing to marry Xu Ting, who was well-mannered and courteous.

"This ......" Mrs. Qi never thought that the Li family would be able to say such a thing, although it was a gamble, but now everyone in the capital knows that Qi Rui doesn't like Xu Shu, how can this family affair continue?

"In the end, it is better to be cautious than the emperor to give marriage! This is about the entire Rongguo Mansion, and it is not for the old woman and me to call the shots, this matter has to be discussed with the grandfather of the country before a decision can be made! "Old Madam Qi came up with a plan to delay the war.

The Li family also knew that Mrs. Qi couldn't be the master, and she was not reluctant, "This is natural, our Xu family also decided to let Sister Ting replace her sister after thinking twice, no matter how good she looks or what she likes, Sister Ting is the most top-notch among the sisters, this is also the sincerity of our Xu family, and we have chosen the best girl, so as not to disgrace this family business!" ”

Old Madam Qi smiled and nodded, "If Mrs. Lao waits for a few more days, the Qi family will definitely give the Xu family an answer!" ”

As for whether this reply satisfies the Xu family, Old Madam Qi is not sure.

Li didn't expect this, in her opinion, the best way for the Qi family now is to marry Qi Rui instead of Xu Shu by Xu Ting as she said. She proposed this point at this time to take advantage of the fact that everyone in the capital is talking about this family affair, taking advantage of the fact that the Qi family is now in a passive situation, the Xu family can take the lead, and the Qi family will make a decision as soon as possible in order to calm down the rumors, Xu Ting's age is really unbearable.

Old Madam Qi conveyed the Li family's intention to the rest of the Qi family, but Grandpa Guo did not express his opinion, but asked Master Qi, "What do you think?" ”

Master Qi arched his hand and said, "In all fairness, the Xu family's proposal is the best way!" It is true that as the Xu family said, the Xu family can't afford to resist the crime of refusing to marry, and the Qi family can't afford it! Whether our family wants it or not, this family affair is imperative, and the queen mother's intention is there, we can't escape! ”

Rong Guogong bowed slightly, "The boss is right, the current situation is very unfavorable to our Qi family, the rumors are intensifying, we have to calm down as soon as possible!" And the best way to quell the rumors is to let the dust settle on this marriage!

Master Qi agreed, "It's useless to delay, even if Brother Rui'er is still young, he can wait a few more years, but the marriage is still there for a few more years, and the Xu family's daughters of the right age are not many, at that time, the Qi family has no choice, take advantage of the present, you can still pick one!" ”

The procrastination trick is Wan's idea, and Wan's has also practiced it this way over the years, but in today's form, the Qi family can't even drag it.

Master Qi's words are straightforward and realistic, rather than dragging a daughter over by the Xu family in the end, it is better to pick the best among the remaining girls as soon as possible.

"Miss Xu Jiaqi is the best among the daughters to be married in the Xu family today! Every time the Xu family goes to a banquet, I have paid attention to the girls of the Xu family, and only Miss Xu Qi is slightly stronger! "Li didn't talk nonsense at this point, from the perspective of choosing a daughter-in-law, Xu Ting is indeed a qualified lady!

"That's all there is to it!" Rong Guogong sighed, even if he compromised, he was unwilling in the end.

Master Qi comforted, "Brother Peng is better now, let's make up for Brother Peng with a good family affair in the future!" ”

Thinking of Qi Pengrong Guogong, he felt a little comforted, "This matter still has to be clarified to the saint first, and changing relatives in private is a crime of bullying the king!" ”

"It's just that His Majesty is not willing to summon his son recently......" Lord Qi looked embarrassed, because of the matter of Concubine Zhen, now the Qi family is useless in front of the emperor.

"There's always a chance, and there's no rush at this time!" Rong Guogong comforted, obviously he didn't plan to come forward himself, Master Qi smiled bitterly in his heart, this kind of thankless errand would always fall on him.

Master Qi drooped his shoulders and walked towards the study, and met Qi Peng on the way, Qi Peng asked with concern, "Father, what's wrong?" But what's wrong with your body? ”

Master Qi waved his hand, "Nothing?" Seeing Qi Peng holding the book in his hand, he asked, "Where are you going with the book?" ”

Qi Peng said, "The fourth brother is recuperating in the house, I am afraid that he will be bored, so I picked some books for him to relieve his boredom!" ”

"You've got a heart!" Master Qi praised it, his eyes full of praise for Qi Peng.

Qi Peng said modestly, "We are brothers, so naturally we have to take care of each other!" ”

Thinking that Qi Rui lost a lot of help in his career after marrying Xu Ting, it is really hard to say what will happen in the future! Master Qi couldn't help but pat Qi Peng's shoulder, "In the future, I will help your fourth brother!" ”

Qi Peng was surprised, "Why did my father say this? ”

Master Qi couldn't hold back for a while and said what the Xu family wanted to do for his relatives, "With such a father-in-law as the Xu family, your fourth brother's future will only be extremely difficult, and he is not as humble as you, and his impatient temperament is difficult to become a big weapon, and his father is very worried about his future!" ”

Qi Peng paid more attention to the matter of surrogate relatives, "Grandfather and grandfather agreed? ”

Master Qi nodded tiredly, "At present, this is the best arrangement for this family business!" ”

Qi Peng also nodded, "That's the only way!" By the way, does my mother know about this? ”

Master Qi shook his head, "Your mother also has a share of the credit for this family affair to this point, and now that the dust is finally settled, wouldn't it be a complication for her to know!" You must tell her! ”

Qi Peng nodded silently, and carefully persuaded, "No matter what happened before, my father has also seen my mother's dedication to the Qi family over the years, and I ask my father to treat my mother well!" ”

Master Qi coughed uncomfortably, "Don't worry about adults!" When your fourth brother's marriage is decided, I will find an opportunity to find an errand for you, you are not small, it is time to do something! ”

"Yes, the son must live up to his father's expectations!" Qi Peng bowed down and sent off Master Qi, and then turned his head to look for Qi Rui, neither father nor son found a figure of a cat in the corner.
