Chapter 435: The Matter of Marriage
"First tell him to wait outside, it's rare for our family to have a reunion, what is he doing here?"
The disgust and dislike in these words made everyone present a little surprised, but this time it was Su Minjun who came back first, she covered her mouth and smiled:
"But it's not, the old man has been looking forward to his granddaughter for more than ten years before he comes back, and Song Gongzi just ran to the door. Those who know the inside story should not be blamed, but when he is young, it is difficult to control his feelings, but in the eyes of our old man, is it just to rob his granddaughter? β
As soon as she joked like this, the rest of the people came back to their senses, and Cheng Lixing joked with a smile:
"Dad, don't worry, Song Bingjue is just here to beg for a meal, and no one can snatch your precious granddaughter! Big brother, don't you say? β
Compared with other people's joy, Cheng Lixin still had a calm face, and he nodded:
"Song Bingjue is outside, it's not good to let him wait like this. It's better to invite someone in first. β
After being persuaded by them like this, the old man's mood was better, but he still said on his face:
"One by one, you seem to have received the benefits of Song Bingjue! Forget it, I don't want to beat the mandarin duck with a stick, for the sake of a flawless face, I should also let this bastard in. β
The heroine Mu Wanye, who was teased by everyone, did not have the slightest sense of shyness, she just smiled calmly, "Grandpa feels sorry for me, I know it." β
The people who came to report the news retreated, and everyone present had different expressions, because of their transcendent status, the Cheng family generally did not easily invite people home and take the initiative to visit because of their transcendent status, except for the season of serious banquets...... They are usually stopped at the door.
It's okay that the seniors are a little older, but Cheng Wuyi and Cheng Wushuang, both of them are a little excited, and Cheng Wushuang simply put away his chopsticks:
"I haven't seen Brother Song for a long time, if I hadn't been stumped by things here, I would have wanted to go to the mainland as soon as possible!"
"My mind is full of only thinking about how to be at ease, you are a descendant of the Cheng family, and I have already begun to learn to take over family affairs when I am your age."
Cheng Lixin was very dissatisfied with Cheng Wushuang's laziness and unmotivatedness, and he glanced at his daughter who was eating silently:
"Your sister's scientific research studio has been selected for the rankings of authoritative magazines, and if you are proficient in anything, I will not hold you like this."
"Dad, have you forgotten something?"
For this kind of words, Cheng Wushuang's ears can already afford to hear the cocoon, and he doesn't care:
"Although I can't do anything else with your son, I'm still very proficient in eating, drinking, and having fun! Speaking of which, not to mention London, I can't find anyone better than me in the whole of the UK! β
As soon as his words fell, Cheng Wuyi burst out laughing, and she said mockingly:
"Other people's skills are really useful, what kind of skills are you? Speaking of it, my big teeth are going to laugh out. β
Mu Wan'an originally thought that the atmosphere at the table was going to be embarrassing again, but he didn't think that the rest of the people seemed to have heard it, and the old man next to him also smiled and said:
"You two are really natural enemies, you really start fighting as soon as you meet, where are there such brothers and sisters? My brother is not like my brother and my sister is not like my sister, so I think it's funny when I see it. β
"If she is gentle and has the appearance of being a sister, why am I so depressed?"
Cheng Wushuang naturally wouldn't really annoy Cheng Wushuang because of this sentence, but he still said with disgust on his face:
"If you don't talk a little, you're still a beautiful girl, and when you open your mouth, you're not likable."
These words provoked several elders at the table to laugh, just when he was in harmony, Song Bingjue walked in with a cold air, he arrived in the United Kingdom in the early hours of the morning, and came to Cheng's house directly without rest, plus his clothes were thin, so the whole person was pale and pale:
"Take the initiative to disturb, Cheng Gong won't blame me, right?"
"When people come and say such things, it seems like I'm calculating."
Although his face was not very good-looking, Old Man Cheng did not deliberately embarrass him, he said angrily:
"Just add a pair of chopsticks."
"Old man, people are drunkards who don't mean to drink, do you really think he came to eat our meal?"
Covering his mouth and smiling, Su Minjun's eyes wandered ambiguously between Mu Wannight and Song Bingjue, and then said:
"If you want me to say that this is natural fate, Flawless has been wandering outside for many years, our family has been looking for so long, but I didn't expect to go around and around, and hide in Bingjue's house...... What is this not fate? β
"These things are pushed backwards. It's all about eating now. β
Signaling the second daughter-in-law not to speak, Old Man Cheng looked at Song Bingjue and naturally asked people to add a chair next to Mu Wan'an, although Mu Wan'an didn't say anything, but his appearance was obviously acquiescing, and his heart became angry.
But this anger is because of Song Bingjue:
"You've not been a settler since you were a kid. I used to look at you, and I thought it was a good thing that young people dared to break through. Now I think it would be nice to be able to live this life in peace. β
The old man obviously had something to say, Song Bingjue could hear it, he was not very satisfied with himself, so he said:
"The mediocre life may be what you want to give Wanwan, but it is definitely not what I want to give her."
"What do you mean, is it possible that I want to watch her suffer with you? Song Bingjue, my granddaughter Cheng, which one is not a fine dress and food, and lives smoothly and safely? β
Originally, he was forced to give up his shady and dangerous business, but he didn't expect him to be so stubborn, which made Old Man Cheng's face become cold, "I don't think your character is soft, so if you are with Flawless, how can you tolerate her?" β
"I don't regress in my career, but it doesn't mean that I will be ruthless in my later things. Please rest assured of this. β
Knowing the character of the old man, Song Bingjue did not give an inch, he looked at the old man whose face was obviously not good-looking, and said seriously:
"Or do you want to be with that kind of playboy who can't do anything? Even if you are not satisfied with me, you should think about it for the sake of the future...... She deserves the best in the world. β
These words are quite reasonable, Old Man Cheng closed his eyes, looking like an old god was there, he picked up a handkerchief soaked in rose dew, and after carefully cleaning his hands, he said:
"Our two families have been friends for generations, and since you are here, I can't snub you."
This is to let himself stay, Song Bingjue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, before the old man opened his mouth, he thought that he would be kicked out, but now there is a turnaround.
"Brother Song, if you are not used to it here, just tell me, I will definitely take care of it for you."
Unexpectedly, grandpa actually asked Song Bingjue to stay, Cheng Wushuang was overjoyed, if it wasn't for his father's detention and refusal to let him return to the mainland, he would have left a long time ago:
"I wonder if there are any new changes in City A? Zhou Tingsui How are they? β
"It's still the same as before, nothing has changed."
He smiled faintly, briefly said a few words about the situation in City A, and then said:
"What's going on with you and Jiang Sheng? In the past, the two of you were like brothers, but now you don't even ask a word, but you have become enemies. β
Hearing Jiang Sheng's words, Cheng Wushuang's expression froze almost invisibly, and then he said:
"I can't get used to his style, so I deliberately distanced myself."
Hearing him say this, everyone else at the table thought about it, and the first to speak was Cheng Lixin, who frowned and scolded:
"Wushuang, you are not a child anymore, there are some things you have to be clear about, no matter what Jiang Sheng says, he is your future brother-in-law, and he is half a family. Since you are a relative, you must be tolerant. Do you understand? β
couldn't listen to these clichΓ©s, Cheng Wushuang just said unhappily:
"He and my sister are not married yet, and you are so towards him? I don't care, anyway, he married my sister, it's a matter of the two of them, and it has nothing to do with me! β
He has never been successful, so Cheng Lixin didn't think much about it when he heard this, he just said unhappily:
"Shame on me!"
No matter how much Cheng Wushuang dislikes Jiang Sheng, but the marriage between Cheng and Jiang will not stop because of his likes and dislikes, so Cheng Lixin didn't say anything else, but when the old man heard them mention Jiang Sheng, he set his eyes on Cheng Wuwu, the heroine of this marriage, who had not spoken:
"Worry-free, what do you think? This marriage has dragged on for a long time, and I don't think the Jiang family is sincere. β
"In this marriage, if we propose to withdraw from the marriage first, it will be a disadvantage for us."
Supporting her glasses legs, Cheng Wuwu talked about her marriage, without half a bit of anxiety, she said lightly:
"The Jiang family's family background is still worse than ours, if we withdraw from the marriage first, we will inevitably fall into a reputation of disliking the poor and loving the rich. I still don't think it's appropriate. β
"You have a point. For the sake of the family's reputation, it is indeed inappropriate to take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage. β
The fact that his granddaughter could think of this really made Old Man Cheng feel gratified, and after thinking for a few seconds, he asked:
"So what would you do if you didn't think about your family's reputation? I'd like to hear your real opinion. β
"I don't want to have any personal feelings with Jiang Sheng."
After only hesitating for two seconds, Cheng Wuwu said categorically, her expressionless face was full of determination:
"In any case, Jiang Sheng is just a second ancestor who relied on his family to get to where he is today, and I don't have anything in line with him...... But for the sake of the family, it is not impossible to live a life that looks like a god. β
"Of course it's good that you have such an awareness......"
Relieved and sighed, Old Man Cheng looked at her, he knew that his granddaughter was a knowledgeable and wise person, "However, since the Jiang family doesn't look down on this marriage, our Cheng family doesn't have to give them too much face." β
"What does Grandpa mean?"
Looking at him with some hesitation, Cheng Wuwu didn't quite understand why the old man suddenly changed his mind, he was not like this before.
