Chapter VII: Marriage Proposal
Nan Qiuting turned his head to look at the old man, with some hesitation on his face, "Father, I heard Qian Wufeng say that he had promised Sun Zhong that he would give his third daughter to Sun Zhong's second son, let's go and intervene this time, isn't it?" ”
After a pause, he continued, "Although the strength of these major families in the city is far inferior to our Nan family, the Qian family also wants to be face-saving, how can they send a woman of the blood line to our Nanfu as a concubine, instead of choosing the status of the wife of the Sun family's bloodline?" ”
Nan Zhongjie and Nan Shengwu also nodded one after another, agreeing with Nan Qiuting's opinion.
But the old man frowned, and his tone changed, "The old man didn't say that he was taking a concubine, this time the Nanjia Ming Media is marrying, and the matter is carried out according to the ancestral system, as for the name, I will tell the eldest grandson." ”
"Huh?" "Huh?" "Huh?"
As soon as the old man's words came out, the three of them exclaimed at the same time.
They originally thought that the old man was going to give Lin Miao a concubine, after all, the strength of these families in Tianshui City was far inferior to that of the Nan family, and the Qian family was the last existence of these families, and it was just a few more ways than ordinary rich and noble families.
It is said to be a big family in Tianshui City, but in fact, it is far from the Nan family.
In view of their old man's past practices, the three of them abandoned the idea of marrying as the main family, and instead thought of taking concubines.
But how can the Qian family say that it is also one of the well-known families in Tianshui City, and there are not many relatives of the Qian family, and the old man of the Qian family is a person who loves face and protects his shortcomings, and treats each one as a treasure, how can he send his granddaughter out to be a concubine?
Nan Qiuting also knew this very well, so he didn't take this matter, and persuaded his old man that if he had known that he was marrying the main family, he would definitely go to the Qian family immediately to tell his best friend Qian Wufeng.
Seeing the strange expressions on the faces of the three people, the old man slapped the table again.
"Ahhhh Don't go yet! ”
……
Inside the Qian family's living room.
There were three people sitting in front of the hall, two of whom were Nan Qiuting and Nan Shengwu, who came together.
There was a middle-aged man sitting opposite the two, and at this time he looked at the two of them in surprise, "Qiu Ting, don't you dare to joke with your brother, didn't I say it, with the eyes of your old man, can you look at any family in this Tianshui City?" ”
The two of them snorted, and Nan Qiuting took out a bracelet from his sleeve with a somewhat proud expression, "Why am I teasing you?" I've brought all the bride money, look at what it is? ”
The middle-aged man paused, his eyes turned to the bracelet in Nan Qiuting's hand, and there were eighteen jade beads that were green and transparent.
With a 'grun......t', the middle-aged man swallowed his saliva, looking a little flustered, "This ...... This bracelet can't be the one in your old man's hand, right? ”
Nan Qiuting chuckled and threw the bracelet at the middle-aged man, "Then you can see for yourself." ”
The middle-aged man was taken aback by this move, jumped up and took the bracelet, and carefully held it in his hand and looked at it.
After a pause, he put the bracelet on the table with trembling hands, picked up the teacup on the side, but spilled a lot of tea before it was brought to his mouth.
Looking at his best friend's embarrassment, Nan Qiuting took a sip of tea happily, "Didn't I say you, you Qian Wufeng is the uncle of the Qian family, just this bracelet, as for it?" ”
Qian Wufeng put the teacup in his hand on the table, his face was a little wrinkled, "As for it?" Damn, this bracelet is worth more than 30 million, and if one is accidentally destroyed in my hands, I can't afford to lose even if I sell my money. ”
Then his brows were also frowned, and he said in a deep tone, "Qiu Ting, you and I have been brothers for more than ten years, and you tell me honestly, does your nephew have any serious illness?" Hemiplegia or congenital mental retardation? ”
Lin Miao hasn't gone out in the past few months since she came to the Nan family, and when the Nan family announced it to the outside world, she only said how to tell the young master in the house.
So Qian Wufeng hadn't seen Lin Miao, and he hadn't even heard of it, but now that there was such a thing, he took Lin Miao as a patient as a matter of course.
"Poof......" Nan Sheng, who had been speechless on the side, didn't hold back when he heard this, and squirted out the tea he had just drunk, "Ahem......"
Nan Sheng pointed to his dark circles and said to Qian Wufeng, "What kind of seriously ill person?" See? I was beaten by him when I was fighting with him. ”
Hearing this, Qian Wufeng's expression was obviously a little surprised, since he first met Nan Shengwu, he was a little curious about how the dark circles under his eyes came from, and thought that he had hit somewhere, but he didn't expect to be beaten by others.
Nan Sheng's fistless fists and feet are well-known in Tianshui City, even if they are not the strongest, they are definitely among the top three.
This made Qian Wufeng interested, a young man who was still underage, is his skills so powerful?
Nan Qiuting picked up the conversation at the right time and said solemnly, "Wu Feng, to be honest, if this time is the rest of the juniors in my family, I don't think they are worthy of your girl." ”
"Speaking of my nephew, I think your girl is unworthy."
Looking at Nan Qiuting didn't look like a joke, Qian Wufeng 'chuckled' in his heart, could it be that the Qian family was really a happy event from heaven?
But he couldn't do this kind of thing, and he had to tell his father.
Qian Wufeng glanced at the bracelet on the table, and then picked it up, "Qiu Ting, you two wait here for a while, I still have to tell my old man about this matter, come here, add tea to the guests." ”
With that, he hurried to the back hall.
After Qian Wufeng left, Nan Shengwu looked at Nan Qiuting, "Fourth brother, why did you say that my father pointed to the Qian family?" ”
Nan Qiuting shook his head, paused and whispered in Nan Shengwu's ear, "I heard Qian Wufeng say that the old man of the Qian family said that he helped his father a long time ago. ”
"Now it seems that most of it is true, and my father may have repaid the favor through this matter."
Nan Sheng didn't let out an 'oh', "There is such a thing, and I haven't heard my father mention it." ”
Nan Qiuting's eyelids jumped at this time, and his gaze flickered twice, which made him feel as if something was about to happen.
……
The Qian family's back house.
Qian Wufeng stood beside the recliner, and an old man was lying on the chair, shaking the recliner.
He handed the bracelet to the old man, "Dad, the Nan family will actually come to our house this time to propose marriage, is there a conspiracy here?" ”
Looking at the bracelet in Qian Wufeng's hand, the old man's cloudy eyes flashed, "This old ghost of the Nan family is here to repay his kindness." ”
Qian Wufeng was stunned, and his expression changed slightly, "Dad, what you said before is true?" ”
When the old man heard this, he picked up the cigarette stick next to him and knocked it on his head, "Nonsense, will I make up anything that I don't have?" Who do you think of your father? ”
The old man slowly stood up and took a puff on his cigarette.
"Let's go, it's not good to leave guests in the front room."
