3 Coax you
"Just this once, Wanton." Qi Songnian was relieved and agreed to Qi Xianli's words, "In the future, you will still deal with your grandmother's side, I don't want to bear the name of unfilial piety." β
"Well, thank you, Dad."
The two of them passed through two sections of the corridor one after the other before entering the main hall side by side.
There were only two people in the main hall, Grandma Qi and Auntie, and the aunt saw Qi Songnian and Qi Yanli enter the hall, and consciously went out of the main hall, leaving only Grandma Qi.
Grandma Qi could only see Qi Yanli in her eyes, and waved her hand earnestly, "Off work?" Come, sit down, grandma has something to tell you. β
Qi Songnian, who was ignored, silently walked to Grandma Qi's side and sat down, while Qi Yanli walked to the single sofa on Grandma Qi's left, there was no unusual emotion on his face, as if he really didn't know Grandma Qi's intention of waiting for him, "Grandma, what are you looking for me?" β
Grandma Qi first bent her eyes and smiled, and then said with a smile, "You kid is blessed, grandma has found you a beautiful girl with a good temperament." β
The aunt came in to deliver the tea, and put a cup in front of Qi Songnian Qi Yanli, Qi Songnian leaned forward to pick up the teacup and sip the tea to moisten his mouth, Qi Yanli didn't touch the tea, and slowly understood a button near the neckline in his hand.
Grandma Qi's eyes lit up, and she asked earnestly, "Why don't you give a reaction?" It's really beautiful, and grandma guarantees that you will definitely like it when you meet her. β
Qi Songnian came to the rescue at this time, he put down the teacup and asked Grandma Qi first, "Mom, which child?" β
Grandma Qi was attracted by Qi Songnian's question, she smiled and said: "Don't worry, this is not an ordinary girl from a small family, you know the Wen family, right?" Although the family business is not as good as ours, the child's own conditions are excellent, and he is a girl with a good temperament and cultivation among the daughters, and she is also worthy of the wanton ceremony. β
Hearing the Wen family, Qi Songnian's eyes moved slightly, and he asked, "Is it Wen Chonghua's daughter?" β
"Yes, it's Wen Chonghua's daughter, named Wen Qi, a particularly beautiful and pleasing girl." Grandma Qi was full of praise when she talked about Wen Qi, "You don't know that she is particularly good at school, she is still the top student in Shucheng in this year's college entrance examination, and she also takes care of an embroidery workshop left by her mother after her death. β
Qi Songnian didn't know what to think, as if he had completely forgotten what he had promised Qi Xianli on the corridor when he came, he turned to look at Qi Xianli and said, "Grandma said so, it's better to meet that girl." β
Grandma Qi saw that Qi Songnian also liked Wen Qi's child, and her heart was even more happy, and she immediately looked at Qi Yanli with burning eyes and asked, "How is it?" Wanton, that kid is really good. β
It was a bit unexpected that his father turned against him so quickly, Qi Xianli lowered his eyes slightly, took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket and glanced at it, before he raised his eyes to Grandma Qi's eager gaze, he got up and avoided talking about it, "The company is a little urgent temporarily, grandma, I'll go back first." β
The corners of Grandma Qi's mouth immediately shrugged down, and her face was a little annoyed, "Here is this trick again!" Every time you mention this, you say that the company has an urgent matter, and you are not allowed to leave today! β
Qi Xianli got up, bent down slightly to take the blazer on the back of the sofa, his eyebrows did not move, and he answered Grandma Qi's words, "Grandma, there is really something to deal with this time." β
Grandma Qi believed him, "In such a big company, is there no one else but you?" The vice president or your assistant can always handle it, but you have to go? β
Qi Xianli wanted to say more, and Grandma Qi said angrily: "Okay, if you drive out of the gate of this house today, I will run away from home without sleeping tonight!" β
Grandma Qi's mouth is not just talking, it has also been used in the past to coerce Qi to go on a blind date, Grandma Qi is really running away from home, just walking on the street within ten kilometers of the house, not far but definitely not home.
Qi Xianli would drive every time and follow behind, asking grandma to get in the car, but Grandma Qi didn't get on, and she sat on a roadside chair with blood blisters on the soles of her feet, wiping her tears and accusing Qi Yanli of being unfilial.
Grandma Qi is an elder, patient and strong, and it is always Qi who compromises.
Qi Xianli's action stopped, pinched his eyebrows, shook his phone, took a step back, and said to Grandma Qi: "I'll go to the yard and make a call for the assistant to deal with it, you can talk about the Wen family's Miss Wen later, is it okay?" β
Seeing that things had taken a turn for the better, Grandma Qi snorted arrogantly, "Five minutes, if you delay for one more minute, I will run away from home immediately." β
Qi Xianli went out of the hall and stood in the courtyard to call the assistant Li Mi, and after explaining the matter, he turned back to the main hall, and Grandma Qi was the only one in the hall, and Qi Songnian was nowhere to be found.
"Where's Dad?" Qi Xianli sat down and asked.
"I guess it was the little lover who called, and when I saw the call, I hurried to the backyard to answer it, and I don't know what the little lover is capable of, and your dad seems to be ...... with something."
Grandma Qi gossiped and complained, and then realized that Qi Xianli's mother and Qi Songnian's divorce seemed to be because of a woman, she quickly stopped talking and talked about tonight's business, "You can see that child of the Wen family, he is really beautiful and not arrogant, you will like it." β
Qi Xianli leaned over to get the teacup, handed it to his lips and took a sip, the tea was already half cold, he didn't call his aunt to change it again, just took two sips, moistened his mouth, and said: "You said that she took the college entrance examination this year, and she should be only eighteen or nineteen years old." β
Grandma Qi corrected, "It's exactly eighteen, and the water is smart." β
"Grandma, I'm twenty-six." Qi Xianli lifted her eyes to look at Grandma Qi, and said lightly: "She just graduated from high school, and I have been in society for many years, will Grandma Wen rest assured that I will fall in love with her?" β
Grandma Qi waved her hand, "What?" Can you still take her badly? It's not that I don't know your temperament, where is that kind of scumbag who cheats and cheats, what is there to worry about your Grandma Wen. β
Qi Xianli did not compromise on the age gap between the two, he said: "Grandma, in the past, I could still go on a blind date if you asked me to go on a blind date, but the young lady of the Wen family is indeed too young, and there is no need to even meet." β
Grandma Qi was depressed, and she said, "This is another excuse you came up with to shirk, right?" Wanton, eight years old and not ten years old, meet her and talk about love, what's wrong? β
Qi Xianli said in a flat voice: "You let me go on a blind date with her, is it in love or with children?" β
"......" Grandma Qi almost vomited out a mouthful of blood, she said: "Eighteen is not eight years old, where do you need to take it!" In other words, the two of you are in love with each other and have sex in the depths of your life, both of which are reasonable, legal and compliant! No one can say that you slept with a minor! β
This time it was Qi Yanli's turn to be silent.
Grandma Qi also felt that this statement was a bit too open, she coughed, adjusted her tone and said: "Of course, grandma didn't let you go to bed when you met the child, grandma just made an analogy." β
Qi Xianli did not speak.
Grandma Qi saw that Qi Xianli didn't speak, but her lukewarm attitude obviously showed that she was not interested in the eighteen-year-old Wen Qi, her brain turned quickly, and then a flash of inspiration, a good idea for Qi Yanli to nod formed in her mind, she first went to take a teacup to moisten her mouth, so as to prepare for a while to spit lotus flowers in her mouth.
Putting down the teacup, Grandma Qi cleared her throat and said seriously, "Actually, Grandma let you go on a blind date with the Wen family today for a reason." β
Qi Yanli put down the teacup, and his mood was quite light, "You said." β
"You also know that the child of the Wen family is only eighteen years old, and no adult in any family will be willing to let her go on a blind date with a man at such a young age, who is not afraid of meeting a bad man who cheats his family's good cabbage, but your grandmother Wen is also forced to do so, you don't pay attention to the affairs of the Wen family, so I don't know what happened to the child of the Wen family."
Grandma Qi briefly said that Wen Qi was robbed of her fiancΓ© by Zhao Wenling, a Wen stepdaughter, and said, "Those two shameless ones directly became a good thing, ignoring Wen Qi, a serious fiancΓ©e, and was so arrogant that she wanted to hold an engagement banquet, but Wen Qi had a soft temperament and didn't say anything when she was bullied like this." β
When Grandma Qi said this, she wiped her tears decently and continued: "That mother and daughter plotted to rob Wen Qi's fiancΓ©, not to mention, they have to step on Wen Qi every day, and from time to time they have to use words to stimulate Wen Qi, she is only eighteen years old, and if she continues like this, there may be psychological problems, your Grandma Wen is anxious, but she is helpless, so she found me." β
Grandma Qi took a sneak peek at Qi Yanli while wiping her tears, and saw that her grandson was still indifferent, like a ruthless and desireless monk, she had to put down her hand, and took the initiative to mention the blind date with tears in her eyes, "Your Grandma Wen doesn't ask for anything else, she just wants Wen Qi's child to have a strong support for this period of time, and it won't delay you for long, at most a year or two, the Wen family child will grow up a little more, and he can leave the Wen family's life, and he won't have to suffer the anger of the mother and daughter, and your affair with that child will be over." β
Qi Yanli rubbed his fingers against the delicate teacup, "What do you mean-"
Grandma Qi replied: "Two years, you have been engaged to the child of the Wen family for two years, and after two years, the marriage contract will be invalidated, your Grandma Wen is my handkerchief, please let me do such a little thing, you will help grandma agree, right?" β
Qi Xianli didn't speak for a while.
Grandma Qi usually thinks that this grandson doesn't like to mess with flowers and grass since he was a child, and his cold and lonely temperament is extremely gratifying, and other rich children of the same generation either don't fall in the wind and moon, or they want to break with the family in order to marry a woman.
But right now, Grandma Qi is resentful of this grandson's cold and lustful temperament, if it rests on the grandson who has all seven emotions and six desires, as soon as she hears that there is a beautiful and eighteen-year-old young girl, where does she need to spend so much tongue, she would have been hungry and hungry.
She thought for a while and said: "This is also a good thing for you, wanton, you have a marriage contract with the Wen family children for two years, grandma does not urge you to get married, you are also content, if it weren't for your grandmother Wen to find me, I will let you keep meeting the little girl next to you at the end of this year." β
"Two years." Qi Xianli's eyebrows moved, but he simply said, "As soon as the two years are up, the marriage contract will be invalidated, grandma, don't go back on your word when you arrive." β
"......" Grandma Qi raised three fingers and swore "Grandma swears, when the two years come, grandma will definitely let you terminate the marriage contract with the Wen family's child." "If he is unwilling to terminate the marriage at that time, then it is a different matter.
"That's all I said." Qi Xianli got up from the sofa and walked to the backyard, "I'll go and see Siyi's homework." β
As soon as Grandma Qi heard his promise, she immediately overjoyed, and when she saw Qi Xianli walking away, she hurriedly raised her voice and asked, "Hey, grandma has a photo of Wen Qi here, don't you want to take a look?" Or is it that grandma made an appointment for you to meet Wen Qi? β
Qi Xianli's slender and upright figure disappeared at the back door of the main hall, his tone was extremely light, as if it was dispensable to him if he couldn't see it, he said: "No need for photos, you can just look at the arrangement when you meet." β
Grandma Qi didn't care about his salty and indifferent attitude, anyway, it was a great relief for her to be able to agree to Qi Yanli right now, even if there was a small lie in it.
Qi Songnian passed by Qi Yanli and entered the main hall, he ended the phone, and when he came in, he saw Grandma Qi's happy expression, his expression moved slightly, and asked, "Yanli agreed?" β
"Hmm!" Seeing that Qi Songnian was puzzled, Grandma Qi told Qi Songnian the conversation in the main hall completely.
Qi Songnian pondered for a moment and said: "The Wen family wants a long-term and stable marriage contract, you tell the Wen family that it will only be two years, and if the marriage contract is terminated after two years, how can you tell the Wen family." β
Grandma Qi was confident, "You don't know, the child of the Wen family looks like a fairy, young and beautiful, there are few men with normal sexual orientation who can resist, don't look at the Yan Li is now cold and not close to women, you wait and see, maybe who will be planted in first." β
Qi Songnian was helpless and reminded: "You can't treat wanton Li as an ordinary man, you haven't seen his coldness towards women, his brothers all call him a monk." β
Grandma Qi glanced at her son, "No matter how unusual it is, it's a man, unless your son can't?" β
"......" Qi Songnian was silent for a while, no longer arguing with Grandma Qi for these few meaningless verbal disputes, he sat on the sofa in the main hall, looked out of the door and window, didn't know what to think, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said inexplicably, "Wen Qi, that kid is really good." β
Grandma Qi and Yourong seemed to say, "That's nature!" Isn't it the best that I can connect with Wanton? β
When Grandma Wen got the news from Grandma Qi, it was already late at night, she had just laid down, and when she saw the two big characters sent by Grandma Qi on WeChat, she sat up from the bed happily.
Then Grandma Qi sent another voice message saying that it was a two-year deadline negotiated with Qi Yanli, and Grandma Wen frowned slightly.
Immediately after that, a voice was sent again, Grandma Qi said: "These two years are equivalent to pulling a red rope for two children, after all, Qi Qi is still young, and his temperament is cold, in case the two children don't get along well, it is torture to tie it up, if you get along well, there will be countless two years after two years, but Lao Du, you can rest assured, these two years should help the foil, and the wanton ceremony will never be ambiguous, although he is a cold person, but he is his nominal fiancΓ©e, he will definitely do his best to give her the protection she deserves." β
Grandma Wen's brows furrowed again after hearing this.
Grandma Qi is right, Wen Qi is still young, and setting a two-year marriage contract can be regarded as giving the two a chance to get to know each other, and the most important thing is that Qi Yanli can protect Wen Qi in the past two years, which is what Grandma Wen needs most.
The Qi family must come down, Grandma Wen didn't want to delay for a moment, she got up directly from the bed, turned on the light and door, and walked to Wen Qi's bedroom.
Wen Qi has been indulged by Grandma Wen these days, plus the two roommates have not come back, she did not live in the school dormitory, today accompanied Grandma Wen to dinner, together in the yard for a while Aunt Wang planted lychee trees in the yard and went back to the room to read.
When Grandma Wen knocked on the door and came in, Wen Qi was moving from the desk to the bed, holding the book in one hand and smoothing the quilt with the other, Grandma Wen said as she came in: "Grandma, grandma has something to tell you." β
Wen Qi saw that Grandma Wen was wearing pajamas, thinking that it might be urgent, she put down the book, lifted the quilt and said, "You sit down and say, don't be cold." β
Grandma Wen didn't go to bed, so she sat on the edge of the bed and pulled a little quilt to cover her legs, and looked at Wen Qi for a while before she spoke, "In the past few days since I came back to Ningcheng, grandma can't eat and sleep well, because I'm afraid that you will be bullied by the mother and daughter of the Zhao family." β
Wen Qi comforted: "Grandma, I'm really fine, why are you worried about me?" β
Grandma Wen: "But it is a certainty that you were robbed of your fiancΓ© by Zhao Wenling, Zhao Wenling gave you an invitation, and Ke Xin asked you to look at the dress, isn't this all deliberately slapping you in the face and bullying you want to make you uncomfortable?" Not to mention that engagement banquet, you went alone, but your original fiancΓ© held Zhao Wenling's hand, didn't they just want others to look at you as a monkey and make fun of you? Grandma doesn't allow it. β
What Grandma said is also true, Wen Qi can't see Zhao Wenling's pride and Ke Xin's mother's mask is high, but she doesn't care so she doesn't feel uncomfortable, but Grandma Wen loves her, so she will empathize with her and feel uncomfortable for her, Wen Qi thought for a while and said: "Zhao Wenling's engagement banquet I don't-"
Before Wen Ji finished speaking, Grandma Wen held her hand and interrupted her, "So Grandma helped you find another good husband to help you get angry." β
ββ¦β¦ Yes? Wen Ji didn't react to the meaning of Grandma Wen's words, she was at first dazed, and then realized it, and her eyes widened suddenly, thinking that she had misheard, "Grandma, what did you say?" You give me ...... Found another husband? Well? Grandma, I don't quite understand what you mean? β
"It's just the face value!" Grandma Wen's sad and depressed mood just now disappeared, replaced by overflowing joy, "It's your grandma Qi's grandson, our two families have already agreed, his name is Qi Yanli, he is handsome, has a successful career, the key is very, very, very clean!" I'm twenty-six this year, and I haven't had a girlfriend yet! β
Yes???
Twenty-six didn't have a girlfriend, this is not a clean body, this should be called not close to women.
Wait, wait, that's not the point.
The point is that Grandma Wen secretly set up another marriage for her without her knowing.
Wen Qi immediately sat up straight, her mind was empty for a moment, and then she held Grandma Wen's hand back and said extremely seriously: "Grandma, don't do this!" I really don't need a new fiancΓ©! β
Grandma Wen guessed that Wen Qi was this reaction, and she smiled and said, "It's already decided, and the tokens of the two families have been exchanged!" As she spoke, her palms facing up, revealing her palms.
"......" Wen Qi looked down in a daze, and saw that Grandma Wen had a concentric lock of excellent Hetian jade quietly nested in her palm.
Grandma Wen looked at Wen Qi's surprised appearance, and was glad that she exchanged tokens on the day she met Grandma Qi, and agreed to give the tokens to Qi Yanli and Wen Qi as soon as Qi Xianli agreed.
"This is a gift prepared by Qi Xianli's mother when Qi Xianli was born, he and his eldest brother both had it, until they were eighteen years old, and then it was kept by Grandma Qi, and now Qi Xianli has this one for you." Grandma Wen handed the concentric lock to Wen Qi.
Wen Qi held the concentric lock like holding a hot potato, she didn't dare to lose it, after all, it was Qi Xianli who brought it up from childhood, and the preciousness has long been indescribable, she wrinkled her little face, remembered something, and hurriedly asked Grandma Wen, "The jade pendant my mother gave me?!" Grandma, you won'tβ"
Grandma Wen smiled and patted Wen Qi's wrist, "Of course it's given to Grandma Qi, and Grandma Qi will give Qi a gift!" β
"......" Wen Qi still didn't dare to touch the concentric lock again after all, she put the concentric lock back in Grandma Wen's palm, and said with a firm look in her eyes: "You return the things, and you want my jade pendant back, the marriage contract can't be taken seriously!" It's ridiculous, we haven't even met! β
Grandma Wen: "If you are free these days, it would be nice to see each other, this kind of thing is a trivial matter." β
"No, grandma, you tell Grandma Qi, you can't take this seriously."
Grandma Wen lowered her head, Wen Ji didn't know what was wrong with Grandma Wen, and was about to speak, when she saw Grandma Wen began to wipe her tears sincerely, and her tone was very sad, "Your marriage is what Grandma asked for with an old face, and now it's decided to let Grandma Qi go to Grandma Qi and say that she regrets it, then Grandma's face is gone, it's okay, and your Grandma Qi's friend is gone." β
"Besides, what is grandma asking you for this marriage, isn't she worried that you will be bullied alone? You don't know that grandma has been waking up at night for the past few days, always having the same nightmare, dreaming that you were forced to jump off the building by Zhao Wenling, and the mother and daughter stood upstairs proudly looking at your bloody corpse. β
Wen Qi couldn't see Grandma Wen crying, and her nose was a little sour.
In the past three years, she and Grandma Wen have depended on each other, she looked down at Grandma Wen, who was thinner than her, since her grandfather died three years ago, Grandma Wen has been emaciating since she moved out of Ningcheng, even if she hired a dietitian, Grandma's weight is only maintained at a normal thin value, especially in the past few days, the nutritionist has not followed, Grandma Wen is too worried, and her body shape is showing signs of decreasing, and she is wearing well-fitting pajamas some time ago.
She was silent for a while, after all, she couldn't bear to worry about her grandmother so much, she whispered: "Grandma, don't worry about me, you take care of your body, as for the marriage you made with Grandma Qi, I just accept it, but you tell the Qi family that I can get a little time on this marriage contract, if the Qi family thinks that this marriage is better than nothing, and wants to dissolve it, you can bring it up at any time, I accept it." β
Grandma Wen wiped the wetness from the corners of her eyes and pinched Wen Qi's face, "Okay, grandma will tell you Grandma Qi, you can rest assured, that junior of the Qi family is not a pestering person, you still have your own time to do what you want to do." β
Wen Qi approached Grandma Wen's arms, holding Grandma Wen's emaciated body, she sighed and said, "You hurry up and go back to sleep, don't sleep and eat well because of my affairs in the future, otherwise I will be angry." β
"Okay, then grandma is back." Grandma Wen put the concentric buckle of Hetian Yu under Wen Qi's pillow, "You keep this token, it is Qi Xianli's thing, you have to keep it well." β
"Okay, I know."
After Grandma Wen left, Wen Ji leaned back on the head of the bed, and was stunned for a while, before picking up the book he had just dropped and putting it on his lap to continue reading.
Reading until eleven o'clock in the evening, Aunt Wang came over and knocked on the door lightly, but did not come in, but whispered through the door: "The old lady asked me to urge you to sleep, Huh." β
Wen Qi is very easy to read a book, she was awakened by Aunt Wang's shouting, her eyes were removed from the book, and she looked at the wall clock in the bedroom, it was already eleven twenty at night, she hurriedly responded: "I know Aunt Wang, you can also go to sleep, I will sleep." β
Aunt Wang walked away with light steps, Wen Ji closed the book, rubbed her eyes that were a little astringent, and then pulled the quilt and lay down.
As soon as she lay down, she noticed a warm object against her cheek, and Wen Qi touched it and handed it to her eyes, only then did she remember that it was the concentric lock of Hetian jade that Grandma Wen had stuffed in before she left.
Wen Qi took it, her fingers were stretched into the inner buckle, she could feel some bumps under her fingertips, she was curious to look in the light of the bedside lamp, and saw that it was a Li pinyin.
The name that grandma just mentioned, that man, seems to be called Qi ...... Extravagant.
"Qi Xianli." Wen Qi muttered a name in his mouth, thinking that the name was strange, both wanton and courteous, I don't know what Uncle Qi was thinking when he came up with the name.
After a while, he came back to his senses, and realized that he was holding a Hetian jade that a man had worn for eighteen years at night, thinking about it, and he could faintly smell a few traces of cold sandalwood incense in his nose, and he didn't know if it was infected by the jewelry box containing this concentric lock, or the smell of the man.
In case a man wears it for 18 years, it is infected by the incense commonly used by men every day......
Thinking of this, Wen Ji blushed slightly as if he had thrown a hot potato, and threw it into the bedside table, and the person dragged the pillow and pressed it under his head, and closed his eyes.
