Chapter 177: Do You Think I Can Do It?
Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Lin Yan, but thinking of Liu Ying's current situation, he decided to wait and see if he could help if he could help.
And now in the lobby of the Liu family, the atmosphere is also tense, especially the confrontation between the eldest and the third master.
The burly uncle Liu Chengzhi said in a rough voice:
"In this ring competition, it is enough to have my son!" The third master Liu Chengxu had a smile on his face, gently played with the teacup in his hand, and said lightly:
"I'm afraid it's not at all!" The uncle's thick eyebrows were raised violently, and he said in an unkind voice:
"Third child, what do you mean?" The third master smiled and said:
"My nephew is really good, but this tournament is a best-of-three match. After all, he alone is invincible with two fists and four hands! Then the third master paused and continued:
"And the Gao family is not vegetarian, there are many good players among the young people of this generation, if we really want to fight, we may not be able to please us!" The uncle's eyes instantly became a little dangerous, he looked at the third master fixedly, and said coldly:
"So you got involved with the Gao family, and you want to marry Ying'er and them again?" The third master spread his hands and said with a smile:
"Big brother, it's a little ugly to say, what do you mean to get together? The marriage between Ying'er and the second son of the Gao family was originally set before, but it was only temporarily stopped after some changes, and now it is not a good thing to mention it again! The uncle slapped the table heavily and shouted:
"Absolutely not! My Liu family, I can't afford to lose this person! The third master sneered:
"The eldest brother insists on going his own way, is he going to put the family to death?" …… The two of them were arguing fiercely, but Liu Chengyan, the head of the family, was just silently watching as if he was an outsider.
Even if he is the head of the family, what is being discussed is a lifelong event involving his daughter! Looking at the noisy eldest brother and third brother, Liu Chengyan was also very bitter in his heart.
They are three brothers of the same mother, and once upon a time, the three of them also supported each other and treated each other with all sincerity.
But all this quietly changed when they grew up, especially after the ancestor supported him to become the head of the family.
They all felt that they should be the one who led the Liu family forward, and before they knew it, the Liu family seemed to be strong, but in fact, the interior had already fallen apart.
Now, the third child has always been unclear with the Gao family, and even the previous marriage was brokered by him.
Today, the old thing is brought up again, as if he will not give up if he doesn't marry Ying'er and them, this third uncle, who looks unusually kind on weekdays, is full of how to use their two sisters to seek greater benefits for themselves.
As for the boss, although he expressed strong opposition to this matter, it was not because he found out in his conscience or cared about family affection or anything, but because he felt that this matter was too humiliating and not in his interests.
In his opinion, he, the head of the Liu family, may already be no different from dead, so if nothing else, the boss is the logical next head of the family.
For this old marriage, he thinks that it is a slap in the face, and at the same time, he is also very unhappy with the strong contender for the position of the head of the family.
As a younger brother, I don't know how to let the eldest brother at all! Liu Chengyan looked at the two people who were arguing with each other, and said weakly:
"Eldest brother, third brother, should you ask Ying'er's opinion about this? Moreover, Yan'er is still young, she ......" Before Liu Chengyan could finish speaking, the third master interrupted him and said impatiently:
"Second brother, since ancient times, marriage events have been 'the order of parents, the words of matchmakers', how can you have your own ideas?"
"You were too used to them before, and this time you can't let Ying'er Hu come again! I am his third uncle, and our elders are all for their good, will we still harm them? Liu Chengyan said:
"This ......" the uncle snorted coldly and said:
"Absolutely not! Even if you don't talk about this 'two goals' thing, even if Ying'er marries it, why do you still have one? "Third master
The "earnest" way:
"Oh, my big brother! Ying'er marries the second son of the Gao family, and Yan'er can marry the third son! In this way, the marriage between the two families is more stable! ”
"Moreover, as long as the family affair is completed, not only do we not have to fight in the ring, but the Gao family will also give us some after obtaining the iron ore mining rights, why not do it?" When the uncle heard this, his brows couldn't help but tremble slightly, and he said in his heart:
"How did you come up with that? Is the third son of the Gao family three years old? Yes? Yan'er is cheaper when she marries, does anyone need to say? ”
"When the time comes, the entire Gaoyang County will say that my Liu family 'sells women for glory', and it is also a scandal of 'two women serving one husband together'. Being poked in the backbone by the people of the entire county, how can I, the future head of the family, still straighten my waist? "Although Uncle seems to be a simple-minded character with developed limbs, he is not stupid at all!
Once the Gao family obtains all the mining rights of iron ore, the Liu family will be under the fence, not only to see people's faces, but also to rely on the little scraps of the Gao family's charity to survive.
At that time, even if he becomes the head of the house, what does it mean, he is not the second child's wreck!
is that the uncle will not retreat, and so will the third master
"Bitter" persuasion, the scene fell into a stalemate for a while...... And at this time, outside the lobby, behind the wall, there was a slender figure standing, it was Liu Ying!
It's just that her eyes are blank at the moment, a self-deprecating smile is on the corner of her mouth, and two lines of tears silently slide down her pretty cheeks.
Although I knew this for a long time, I still felt like a knife when I heard it with my own ears. The relatives I thought were so ruthless and mercenary?
In their eyes, what is their sister, a kitten or puppy that can be given away casually, or a tool that can be discarded when they run out?
At this time, Lin Yan came! In fact, he came with Liu Ying on his front and back feet, but he didn't get close at first.
But with his current strength, the conversation in the lobby entered his ears word for word. He thought to himself:
"These uncles are shameless enough!" made a deal with his niece, and he could still say that it was so high-sounding, and he even moved out
The big hat of "everything is for your good" really refreshed Lin Yan's cognition! He walked to Liu Ying's side gently, stretched out his hand and handed out a white handkerchief, as a disciple of the academy, this is uniform, but he has never used it.
At the same time, Lin Yan put a finger to his mouth and signaled Liu Ying not to speak. Although the latter was surprised that Lin Yan appeared at this time, he still nodded obediently.
Liu Ying took the handkerchief, wiped her tears, and whispered to Lin Yan:
"Thank you!" Lin Yan shook his head, stared straight into Liu Ying's eyes, and said in a low voice:
"Sister Liu Ying, do you want to change?" Looking at the young man in front of him who was younger than himself, listening to his words, Liu Ying always had a feeling of unreality.
But she wanted to believe this boy for no reason, maybe because of his determined eyes, maybe because he saved herself twice, or maybe he always worked miracles!
Yes, the boy went all the way from the border to the academy, and he went through so much along the way. If he wasn't sure, he wouldn't have asked this sentence lightly.
Moreover, Liu Ying also wants to change, and this thought has never been stronger than at this moment! She nodded heavily and said softly:
"I want to!" This gentle woman has had enough of being used by her family, and now even her sister can't escape this cruel fate, and all this is only for the so-called family interests.
She wants to be in control of her own destiny, and at this moment, she wants to have it
"No" right! Lin Yan seemed to be very satisfied with her answer, smiled, and said:
"Okay, I'll help you!" Listening to the young man's promise, Liu Ying's heart suddenly settled down, although she didn't know what confidence the young man had to say this, and what could help her get out of the current predicament.
All she can do is believe! Lin Yan leaned over and whispered something in Liu Ying's ear, the latter's expression changed, and finally his eyes became more and more determined, and then turned around and walked towards the lobby.
At the moment when Liu Ying entered the lobby, the sound of the quarrel stopped abruptly, and the head of the family, Liu Chengyan, looked at his daughter, his eyes were a little evasive, and said:
"Ying'er?" The uncle glanced at Liu Ying, with a little impatience in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice:
"Ying'er, the elders of the family are deliberating, and you suddenly broke in, very unruly, you know?" Then he glanced at Lin Yan who was following behind Liu Ying, frowned, and continued:
"And with outsiders, hurry out!" Liu Ying shook her head and said:
"Lin Yan is not an outsider, he is my friend!" When the uncle saw that this usually gentle niece dared to disobey him in public, his eyes became more and more cold.
At this time, the third master spoke, and he said with a smile:
"Ying'er, the adults are talking about things, you better take Lin Yan's little brother down first!" Liu Ying still didn't move, just looked up into the eyes of the third master, and said:
"Third uncle, what are you talking about? Let's talk about my marriage! In that case, why can't I, the client, listen? The third master was speechless for a while, this matter really can't get around Liu Ying.
It's just that after experiencing the previous incident of this girl withdrawing from the marriage with her life, if you really let this girl be present, who knows what kind of moth will come out, it is better to wait until everything is settled before notifying her.
Seeing that the third master did not speak, Liu Ying continued:
"Father, two uncles, I will not agree to the marriage of the Gao family! Moreover, in this ring competition, I want to fight, and I am at my own risk! As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the three people in the lobby were different.
As a father, Liu Chengyan looked worried, while the third master instantly put away his smile and his face was gloomy.
As for the uncle, although he didn't like this niece who dared to disobey him, he didn't want to see the third child's plan go smoothly, so he groaned on his face.
After a while, the uncle stared at Liu Ying and asked:
"Ying'er, you dare to make a move for the family, this is very good! Let's not talk about your strength, even if you count your cousin, this number is still one ......" Without waiting for Liu Ying to speak, Lin Yan walked out from behind her and said slowly:
"Ahem, do you think I'm okay?"
