Later, his father talked to him about it, but he didn't promise. At that time, Miss Chen had not returned to China, and there was still a turning point for the marriage.

It's just about the issue of equity, the Pei family can't point to the Chen family and hang themselves from a tree. Therefore, my father also tried to wander around the various industrialists for help.

At the same time, Chen Gongqing was elected president of the Bank of China, and for a while, the Chen family was in the limelight, and Pei Gongqing's dream of marriage could only be temporarily shelved.

Although the marriage is over, Tao Tao's heart is still awkward. always felt that her territory had been violated, and at that time she also knew clearly that she cared about Pei Yuanqian far more than she imagined.

Even if he deliberately explained to her later, it was just a temporary joke, and Miss Chen was not in China. But she was still uneasy. From then on, she began to pay attention to everything related to the Chen family.

Later, Chen Yunhe returned to China, and she didn't know why a person who had lived well abroad suddenly returned. She saw her face in the newspaper. It seems to be a charity banquet, she donated tens of thousands of taels of silver dollars, and the article is mostly praised, saying that she is a representative of the new woman, free and unrestrained, and speaks for women......

She knew that Pei Yuanqian also participated in that banquet, and they would definitely meet, but she didn't know how he would feel when she saw such a beautiful person.

So every time he came back from Shanghai, she tried her best to ask Chengyu and Jiming about Chen Yunhe, and after he found out, he deliberately teased her, "Why are you so concerned about outsiders?" I've never seen you so concerned. It seems to be a complaining tone, but it is still full of spoiling.

"I care about you." Tao Tao carelessly.

Yuan Qian scratched her nose and snorted, "Nosy." ”

Later, I didn't know if he instructed it, anyway, Chengyu quietly told her, "The second young master and Miss Chen have never met in private. The two didn't even communicate. ”

She pretended not to react after hearing this, but she still smiled in her heart, and she was able to sleep peacefully.

The Spring Festival of that year was a good thing for the Chen family, first the Commercial Printing Bureau took back the Japanese equity, and then Pei Zhuoyun was elected chairman of the Jianghuai Regional Chamber of Commerce. You must know that the former chairman is Chen Gongqing, who is currently the president of the Bank of China. The steamship business company invested by the Pei family has also gradually entered the right track. Even Yongqian, who went to a military academy, was favored by his superiors and transferred to Nanjing. The Pei family's good deeds are one after another.

This time, Yuan Qian's marriage was brought up again. In Dining Table Mountain, Pei Zhuoyun was in a good mood and drank a lot of wine.

"Yongqian and Yuanqian are both not small, and now, our Pei Jiazhi is full of pride, but the people are thin. I really hope that there will be a few more people in the family at this time in the coming year. ”

"Father, I have just arrived in Nanjing, and I have not yet established my heels, so I still count on Yuan Qian for this matter."

"Father, eldest brother is not in a hurry, and I am not in a hurry." Yuan Qian glanced at Tao Tao, only to see her bow her head and eat in a muffled voice, but he quietly withdrew his eyes and was busy refusing.

"You also met the girl of the Chen family in Shanghai."

Tao Tao chuckled in his heart, and the crystal pill he had just picked up fell on the table with a clatter. Yongqian and Yuanqian glanced at her at the same time, and she forced out a smile.

Still Yongqian picked up the spoon next to him and put one in her bowl, Tao Tao smiled at him, "Thank you, big brother." ”

"I just met, but I didn't communicate." Yuan Qian responded lightly, not wanting to say more.

"Isn't your relationship with Zhihe good, you should move around more if you have nothing to do. Later, I will go to Shanghai and ask my mother to prepare some gifts for your Aunt Chen. ”

"Yes...... Whether it works out or not, what you can often see in the mall should also be walked around. Besides, the two of us were in constant contact, but over the years, your Aunt Chen has been in Shanghai, and the circle is all running a bank, and I am not sociable....." Pei's mother also agreed with the meaning of her words.

Yuan Qian stopped talking, Tao Tao didn't speak from beginning to end, blindly bowing his head and stuffing something into his mouth. This meal is over. When the fireworks were set off at night, it was also wilting, and Pei's mother thought she was sleepy and let her go back to rest early.

Tao Tao lay on the bed tossing and turning, and when she couldn't sleep, she sat up and took out the pocket watch from under the pillow. Pleasant music sounds, filling in the rhythm of the silent night.

Later, the news of the marriage between the Chen family and the Pei family broke out. It has only been more than two months since the last time Pei Zhuoyun mentioned something on Chinese New Year's Eve, and it is no wonder that Pei's mother prepared a lot of things before the second brother went to Shanghai.

Tao Tao knew that in the end, Yuan Qian still obeyed his parents' orders and went to the Chen family. It's just that I didn't expect it to be exposed.

I heard that Yuan Qian and Pei's father lost their temper, but this matter has become a topic of discussion after dinner. Chen Yun and the proud daughter of the sky actually married the Pei family. And people who didn't know anything about Pei Yuanqian before also began to pay attention to him because of Yunhe's relationship.

For Yuan Qian, who is immersed in work, I really don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. Even Zhihe ridiculed him for becoming the envy of the men in Shanghai.

However, at the same time that people were awakened to gossip by this marriage, a rubber stock turmoil broke out in the capital circle. For a time, the capital market was seriously hit, Pei Zhuoyun took advantage of his official position to privately transfer the silver dollars on the account of the Commercial Printing Bureau to invest in rubber stocks, resulting in a book loss of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver dollars. The Commercial Printing Bureau was in unprecedented difficulty. The people on the board of directors ran to Pei's mansion every day and begged Pei Zhuoyun for an answer.

Desperate, Pei Zhuoyun can only hope for Chen Gongqing.

It was the most difficult time for the Pei family in so many years, and Yuan Qian and Pei Zhuoyun were busy. Tao Tao, as a member of the Pei family, felt that it was necessary to contribute.

So she went to Yuan Qian and took out her savings over the years and put them in his hands, "Second brother, take it for emergency." ”

Yuan Qian shook his head, "Even if the Pei family reaches that point, they can't use your money, and they haven't reached that point yet." ”

"Don't lie to me, I saw my mother take jewelry out to pay off her debts. You said that if you didn't get there, your mother wouldn't do it. ”

"I can't ask for your ...... No matter how bad it is, I sold the boat, and I was still able to survive. ”

"At this time, who would dare to buy your boat, it would be good not to fall into the well and see the joke." In fact, Tao Tao is right. Many people were not spared from the rubber storm this time, and those friends who were good friends with the Pei family were already too busy to take care of themselves. Enterprises that usually regard the Commercial Printing Bureau as their opponents are even more secretly applauded, but now they are looking forward to the decline of the Pei Family Building.

It seems that only the Chen family can be relied on, although the Chen family was not spared this time, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. Compared with the devastating blow of the business printing sentence, the Chen family only had a little blood, and it was just a skin injury.

"Second brother, do you like that person?"

Suddenly, Tao Tao asked such a sentence. Yuan Qian didn't know how to answer.
