Chapter 9: The Past
Lin Fei has already fallen asleep, and everyone in the Qiu family is afraid that they will not be able to sleep all night tonight.
In the main house of the Qiu family, the guests have all dispersed, and Qiu Jinru has also sent all the servants down, leaving only their family behind.
Qiu Yun was the first to speak: "Dad, did Lin Fei mean that she has a boyfriend now?" I thought she would always be guarding Chen Chuanlin. Speaking of the latter, there was already a disdain in his tone.
Qiu Jinru was very dissatisfied with the bitterness in his daughter's words, he thought that his daughter was good anywhere, but this mouth offended people as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Qiu Yun! Did you say enough of it? Qiu Jinru's scolding made Qiu Yun pause, but he didn't continue. She stopped talking, but Old Man Qiu was not ready to let her go this time.
"Tell me about you, you're dozens of years old, and you don't have any sense of proportion when you speak! Scarlet is your daughter! Is it appropriate for you to her like that? How many times has Scarlet been back in the past seven years? Come back and take a sneak peek at me, an old man, don't you know what the reason is? Are you really so ruthless? I know you hate Lin Zhaorong, but Scarlet is your biological daughter after all, can you really be so cruel to her? ”
Qiu Jinru's words were said by several people, and they didn't dare to breathe. Who in the Qiu family doesn't know that Lin Zhaorong is a taboo that can't be mentioned in front of Qiu Yun, and now the old man is talking so seriously. They couldn't help but sneak a peek at Qiu Yun's reaction.
Qiu Yun was reprimanded by her father like this, her face changed and changed, and she also wondered in her heart if she was really too much to her daughter. But when she heard her father mention Lin Zhaorong again, she also felt aggrieved in her heart.
Qiu Yun's face turned red, and her voice trembled and retorted to her father: "Dad! How can you mention him! You knew what the situation was, why did you force me to marry him! ”
Syllable!! Qiu Jinru slapped on the table, and the tea set on the table shook upside down. His eyes were red, and if he had just complained about his poor granddaughter, he was really angry this time.
"Qiu Yun! Are you embarrassed to say all the ugly things you did yourself? You didn't do that kind of thing then, would it be like that now? Will Xiao Wan not come back for so many years?! Who are you to bring up this?! ”
The green tendons on Qiu Jinru's neck were furious, and Qiu Yun was also silent by what he said. She also felt that she was angry, and she always felt that her father should not have forced her to marry Lin Zhaorong in the first place. And now she still says that. She picked up her bag and walked away angrily.
Qiu Jinru looked at her and left without looking back, and also brushed her sleeves away. Only Qiu Chao's family of three was left, looking at each other.
"Let's go, let's go back too." Qiu Chao looked at the empty house, and also took his wife and son back to their yard.
On the way, Qiu Hao thought of the dispute between his aunt and grandfather just now, and was really curious about what they revealed in his words, so he couldn't help but ask his mother: "Mom, what did aunt and grandfather mean just now?" ”
Before her mother Xu Lan could speak, Qiu Chao said in a deep voice: "Let's talk about it when I go back." ”
Everyone in the Qiu family lives together, but they are also divided into several courtyards. Qiu Hao returned to his yard and couldn't wait to ask: "Dad, Mom, tell me quickly, I'm dizzy." ”
Xu Lan didn't know whether she should tell her son about these Chen sesame seeds and rotten grains, so she glanced at her husband.
Qiu Chao naturally understood what his wife meant. This kind of thing should not be told to the child, but looking at the current situation, once his old father drives the crane west, the Qiu family will definitely go downhill. When the time comes, his stupid big sister will only drag him back. It's better to tell your son about this kind of thing as soon as possible, and let him have a consideration in the future.
"Tell him."
With her husband's instructions, Xu Lan told her son the whole story.
In Xu Lan's eloquent story, Qiu Hao understood the whole story.
Forty-five years ago, Xie Shuyu gave birth to a pair of twins for Qiu Jinru, it was Qiu Yun and Qiu Wan, Qiu Jinru has always doted on these two daughters. The two look like fledgling hibiscus, but their personalities are diametrically opposed.
Qiu Yun has always been outgoing and strong, she wants to be the first in everything, Qiu Jinru always said to his wife when she was young that this daughter has a good personality, but she is too opinionated, and she needs a gentle man who can tolerate her to match her. But Qiu Yun just found a British man with a domineering personality.
Qiu Jinru couldn't get used to this pair of exotic mandarin ducks, he knew in his heart that his daughter was strong, and when he met such a domineering man, the two seemed to get along well now because of Qiu Yun's compromise. She takes care of men's ideas in everything, Qiu Jinru feels that her daughter is too hard like this, and marriage is not love, and the friction and contradictions between the two will only increase in the future.
Qiu Jinru made up his mind to get rid of this bearded man and choose another wishful husband for his daughter.
It just so happened that the youngest daughter Qiu Wan came back from studying abroad, and on the day she went home, she also brought her boyfriend Lin Zhaorong.
Qiu Wan and Lin Zhaorong met when they were students at the Dunkirk Academy of Fine Arts. Both of them are studying art, so naturally they have a lot of common topics, and after coming and going, the two young people are together.
Qiu Jinru looked at the two people in the courtyard who were talking and laughing and painting together, and he only felt that creation made people.
Lin Zhaorong is a gentle man, polite to everyone, and has a good temper. Qiu Jinru felt that if Lin Zhaorong could get together with his eldest daughter, it would be a godsend.
The youngest daughter has a gentle temperament, so she should find a big man with a strong personality in order to live a better life.
But the wood is already in the boat, and he can only think about it.
The day after Qiu Wan returned, Qiu's family held a dinner party to welcome home the daughter who had been studying abroad for several years and had not returned.
The dinner had been peaceful, but the turmoil was coming to an end.
Qiu Wan said that she had drunk a little too much, and she was a little uncomfortable, and she wanted to go back to her room to rest. Just let Lin Zhaorong talk to his father by his side, and he can also leave a good impression on his father. She told Lin Zhaorong the location of her room and went upstairs.
Lin Zhaorong has also been respectfully accompanying his father-in-law.
Later, it was a little late, and the guests were all gone, and only a few families who were good friends with the Qiu family were still chatting with Qiu Jinru about some things that Lin Zhaorong couldn't understand. Qiu Jinru saw Lin Zhaorong, who was slightly tired, so he asked him to go upstairs to rest.
Lin Zhaorong went upstairs to find Qiu Wan's room, pushed open the door and entered. There was no one in the room, and Lin Zhaorong didn't think much about it, anyway, this was in the Qiu family, and nothing would happen to Qiu Wan. So he went to take a shower first.
After taking a shower, Qiu Wan hadn't come back yet, so Lin Zhaorong leaned on the bed, waiting for her while reading.
