Chapter 50: Family Year-End Deliberations (Part II)
A ray of warm sunlight in winter shines into the house through the window.
The chirping finches jumped on the windowsill and rejoiced.
Carefully calculated, in today's meeting hall, Qin Shan, the Supreme Elder and Law Enforcement Elder, Qin Hongxian, the Great Elder Qin Chouyun, the Second Elder Qin Liangzheng, and the newly promoted Foreign Affairs Elder Qin Yicheng, the six Great Foundation Elders of the Qin Family, there were five of them at the same time today!
If you say that there is nothing serious, I'm afraid no one will believe it.
And looking at Qin Shan's calm and relaxed appearance, as well as Qin Chouyun and Qin Hongxian, who were chatting without a word together, they knew that the people had not yet arrived, and the business could not start yet.
Sure enough, after waiting for a long time, the sixth person finally arrived late.
The person who came was a woman, with a delicate and beautiful face, no powder, a tight-fitting flaming red dress, heroic and cool, with a water wave flowing cloud jade pendant tied around her waist, good-looking Danfeng eyes, if there is spring thunder, although the whole person is charming but not vulgar.
As soon as he saw the woman stepping into the door, Foreign Affairs Elder Qin Yicheng hurriedly got up and greeted him politely: "Yicheng has seen Aunt in Red. ”
It turned out that this woman was the third elder of the Qin family, Qin Hongyi!
Qin Hongyi, the daughter of Qin Shan, the third-generation head of the Qin family, has been practicing for more than 70 years, with a six-grade fire attribute spiritual root, and is a mid-stage foundation builder.
It is important to note that the age of the monks cannot be judged by ordinary standards.
Although there is not much difference between a monk and a mortal in the Qi cultivation period, and the upper limit of the longevity is one hundred and twenty years, once promoted to the foundation building period, the monk's longevity can be as high as three hundred years, and for Qin Hongyi, who is now in the middle stage of foundation building, she is now only equivalent to a girl in her twenties in the mortal world.
It's just that for some reason, Qin Hongyi, who was wearing a flaming red dress, has always had a cold face since he entered the door, like an iceberg, revealing an aura that no one should enter.
Especially after Qin Yicheng called her, he glanced at the guy who was not much younger than himself, but insisted on calling his aunt, Qin Hongyi's already cold face was even colder at this time.
She ignored Qin Yicheng, only stepped forward to perform the junior salute, and said lightly: "Hongyi has seen the seventh uncle and the cousin Liangzheng." ”
Qin Yicheng scratched his head, he didn't know where he provoked this aunt, but he was there, and he couldn't get Qin Hongyi's reply, he couldn't sit, he didn't sit, he stood there in a daze, feeling a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, Qin Hongyi didn't make it difficult for him, and nodded slightly, even if it was over.
As for his father Qin Shan and eldest brother Qin Chouyun, Qin Hongyi saw it as if he didn't see it, he didn't even say hello, he went straight to Qin Shan and sat down on the second right seat specially reserved for himself, and was about to sit down.
I have to say that on such an occasion, the six foundation building elders gathered, and Qin Hongyi's move was very rude.
Especially when father and daughter meet, brother and sister meet, and they don't say hello, what is this called?
"Ridiculous!" Sure enough, Qin Chouyun, who has always been the most disciplined, sank his face, slapped the table with a bang, and scolded: "Qin Hongyi, after all these years of practicing alone in the Ninth Mountain, you have cultivated such a rude appearance? Do you still have a big brother like me in your eyes!"
Qin Yicheng recruited you to provoke you, and as soon as he entered the door, he had a cold face, who would he show it?
The eldest brother is like a father, and there are many things that his father Qin Shan is unwilling to take care of, as the eldest brother, he must come forward to take care of it!
Under Qin Chouyun's deliberate restraint, Fang Cai's slam did not have much impact, and the turquoise tea in the porcelain white tea cup on the table only rippled slightly, and soon regained its calm.
But the atmosphere in the conference hall was inexplicably frozen.
"Heh, what about you as a big brother, what if you don't have a big brother like you?" Qin Hongyi sneered, didn't raise his eyelids, sat down peacefully, picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, and said casually: "Anyway, you can only put on your big brother's shelf, and you can't even handle your own woman, what's the matter, now come to me to show your majesty?"
"You ......" Qin Chouyun got up suddenly, his neck was thick red, and he was so angry that he almost couldn't speak.
"Remember, you Qin Chouyun, including a good father who can only beat mandarin ducks, are not qualified to care about me," Qin Hongyi raised his head, leaned forward, and stared at his eldest brother with a pair of good-looking Danfeng eyes, as if he was hiding thousands of years of cold ice, word by word, word by word: "I, Qin Hongyi, am just Qin Hongyi of the Qin family, and you, a coward, and a certain unkind father, have nothing to do with half a dime, now and in the future!"
I don't know how much deep hatred there is, which makes the brothers and sisters whose blood was thicker than water almost turn against each other now.
"Chou Yun, sit down. Qin Shan, who was sitting on the main seat, finally spoke, opened his eyes, and said indifferently: "I said back then, as long as she is willing to leave that kid from the Chen family and honestly go to the ninth mountain to take charge, I will no longer interfere with everything in her." ”
"Speaking, as long as she is far away from that kid of the Chen family, even if she never marries for the rest of her life, and she will die alone in the Ninth Mountain, I, Qin Shan, can support her for a lifetime!" Qin Shan's face was as cold as frost, and he couldn't see the slightest expression.
Qin Hongyi gritted his teeth and said directly: "Hmph, it's good if you remember!"
is worthy of a father and daughter, and even this ruthless appearance seems to be carved out of a mold.
"Father......" Qin Chouyun turned his head suddenly, as if he wanted to say something, and after thinking about it, he could only shake his head in the end and let out a long sigh.
"Alas......" As the eldest son, Qin Chouyun knows Qin Shan's temperament too well, but the best way at this time is to keep his mouth shut, even if he says even one more sentence, it will add fuel to the fire.
At this time, Qin Hongxian and Qin Liangzheng, who were sitting opposite, father and son, one lowered his head and played with the square inch storage ring in his hand, and the other simply turned his head to look out the window, all of them as if they didn't see it.
There's no way, this is a family matter after all, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and the head of the family is even more so, they are a fart if they stick in it.
Besides, the Fire Spirit Root Monks are all artillery battles, just one point, none of them are good-tempered, they can't be provoked, they can afford to hide.
After a long time, the Qin family's meeting hall, which had been silent for a long time, finally someone spoke again.
"According to the rules, the annual family year-end meeting should be presided over by the current head of the family. ”
Qin Shan said expressionlessly: "However, this year, Hanhai went to Zhongzhou, and not long ago he sent back the news through the family surname soul lamp, saying that he had been stained with Feng'er's light and obtained the special approval of the Yuanying Great Confucian of Jingfu Academy, and he could borrow the third-order spiritual land of the academy to cast the Great Dao Jindan, and within three years and five years, I am afraid he will not be able to come back."
"So the family year-end meetings in the next few years will be presided over by me, do you have any objections?"
Qin Hongxian obviously learned the news in advance, his long white eyebrows were full of relief, and he took the lead in smiling: "There is no objection." ”
Qin Chouyun and Qin Liangzheng also spoke at the same time: "There is no objection. ”
Qin Liangzheng followed closely: "No objection. ”
Only Qin Hongyi was kept in the dark, as if he didn't know anything, and his tone was filled with joy and disbelief: "What, the second brother wants to forge the Great Dao Jindan in Zhongzhou? Doesn't that mean that after the first ancestor of my Qin family, there will be another Jindan monk? When the second brother comes out, won't my Qin family be a seventh-rank family?!"
But then he saw that several people around him were looking at him with a smile, and even Qin Yicheng's guy seemed to know it a long time ago.
Qin Hongyi turned his head angrily, endured the curiosity in his heart, and said angrily: "No objection." ”
"Since there are no objections, let's start this year's year-end deliberations!" Qin Shan still had that expressionless face, obviously not wanting to say more.
Qin Hongyi was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he refused to put down his face and continue to ask, it was really a report and a report.
