Chapter 405 [Famous Jinghua]
Once, a person had an old camel, which worked hard all day long. Once the owner wanted to see how many goods the old camel could carry, so he kept adding, but the old camel still did not collapse. Finally, the owner wondered if it had reached the limit, so he gently threw one. The straw was on its back, but I didn't expect that it was this straw that knocked the old camel down.
This is an Arab fable called "the last straw that overwhelms the camel".
means that the development of things has reached the critical point of the limit, and adding any little more ground factors will cause it to collapse.
Ye Zhengrong is like this at this time.
I have received elite lessons since I was a child, family edification, internal training in the system, and the creation of the Hongjing Association...
All of this makes Ye Zhengrong, the young master of the Ye family, have a city government and psychological quality that ordinary people can't have.
Follow Ye Shi into the banquet hall and saw Pei Donglai and Qin Dongxue holding hands. He heard Ye Gucheng, who was regarded as a card in Ye Shi's hand, saying "Pai Wufu killed me like a chicken" and saw a big man coming to the banquet hall to support the Pei family because of Pei Wufu...
Because of a strong heart, Ye Zhengrong faced the previous three blows. Although he could not accept it, he endured it.
Just--
His psychological endurance has reached a critical point.
At this moment, the questioning of the old master of the Xiao family was like the last straw that overwhelmed the camel, which made Ye Zhengrong, who was overloaded with his heart, collapse directly and fell to the ground.
"Zhongrong!"
Seeing Ye Zhengrong fall to the ground, Ye Jin and his wife hurried forward to help him.
Soon, in the watchful eye of everyone. Ye Zhengrong was picked up by Ye Jin and his wife.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao, Zhengrong has been feeling a little sick recently, and he suddenly fainted just now."
After being picked up by Ye Jin and his wife, although Ye Zhengrong's face was still a little pale, but... he was much more awake. He first bowed deeply to the old master of the Xiao family, and then said, "Since Dong Xue thought it was not appropriate for me to be with her. I will respect her opinion and wish her happiness.
Ye Zhengrong's words sounded in his ear, and Pei Donglai was secretly vigilant. In his opinion, after Ye Zhengrong's gaffection, he was able to regain his sanity in a very short time. On the surface, he said this lightly as if he had nothing to do. His mind and city government are indeed not comparable to that of ordinary people.
Ye Shi, who was originally ugly, heard Ye Zhengrong's words, his frowned eyebrows quietly loosened, and the gloomy eyes in his eyes gradually receded, replaced by relief.
"Xiao Qin, Xiao Ye, since young people have no objection, I'm sure you won't have any objection, right?" Hearing Ye Zhengrong's answer, the old master of the Xiao family asked Qin Hongshan and Ye Shi again.
"Uncle Xiao, I respect the children's choice." Qin Hongshan replied as soon as possible.
"Uncle Xiao, I also respect the children's choices. I also wish the girl Qin and Donglai can be happy. Ye Shi also nodded with a smile and smiled very naturally. When he said the word "Dong Lai" gave people a kind feeling, which made Pei Donglai really regard him as his grandson.
"Well, since you don't have any objection, today I will rely on the old seller to preside over the engagement ceremony for Dong Lai and the girl Qin." After receiving the reply from Qin Hongshan and Ye Shi, the old master of the Xiao family said with a smile.
The words of the old master of the Xiao family sounded in his ears. Ye Shi and Qin Hongshan responded with smiles like other bigwigs, and many members of the Qin Ye family looked very strange.
Especially the members of the Ye family - they came to attend the engagement ceremony of Qin Dongxue and Ye Zhengrong today, but now they want outsiders to witness Pei Donglai's engagement with Qin Dongxue. This is even more disgusting than eating a fly while eating.
It's just... disgusting. They all understand that at this point, the overall situation has been settled and cannot be changed.
Then, in the presence of the two members of the Qin Ye family, with the participation of all the bigwigs. Under the auspices of the old master of the Xiao family, Qin Dongxue and Pei Donglai held a brief engagement ceremony.
"From now on, from now on. Girl Qin is your fiancee. As a man, you should love her more and tolerate her more.
In the hall. Yang, the old master of the Xiao family looked at Pei Donglai and Qin Dongxue with a smile: "Qin girl, you should also support Donglai more in your career and understand him more. I wish you happiness."
"Thank you, Mr. Xiao."
Pei Donglai and Qin Dongxue held hands and bowed and thanked.
"Bang..."
At the same time, there was a applause of blessings in the hall for a long time.
Applause sounded in his ear, and Pei Donglai and Qin Dongxue, who were in the middle of the banquet hall, were supposed to be the protagonists, but now Ye Zhengrong's expression, who was used as a foil, looked very calm, but... the crazy beating muscles at the corners of his eyes betrayed the most [true] feeling The ground was clenched together, and the blue veins of the arms burst out.
After the engagement ceremony, neither the old master of the Xiao family nor those bigwigs attended the banquet, but left one after another.
After the bigwigs left, the members of the Ye family also got up, like soldiers who had defeated the battle, and left the banquet hall full of shame.
With their departure, only the Qin family and the head of martial arts families such as Jia Peiyuan, Mr. Miao and Lonely Fengying were left in the huge banquet hall.
Looking at the hall. Yang still had a calm face, Pei Donglai, including Qin Feng. Previously, because Pei Donglai's family background was not as good as that of the Qin family members of the Ye family, his expression was particularly embarrassed.
In contrast, the embarrassment on the faces of Qin Hongshan and Qin Zheng is more obvious, so that they don't know how to talk to the father and son of the Pei family.
Qin Yan is the only person in the Qin family who unconditionally supports Pei Donglai and Qin Dongxue together.
In this regard, she had witnessed miracles before. After recovering from the shock, there was no embarrassment on her face, but only joy.
In addition to joy, she found that the atmosphere was a little awkward and said with a smile, "Dad, brother, sister-in-law, brother Pei, the engagement ceremony is also over. Next, I'll inform you to be served?"
"Good."
Qin Hongshan nodded.
"Wufu, I lost to you in love. Today, my daughter was abducted by your son again - I lost so much that I drank for a while. I'll punish myself for three cups first. After sitting down, Qin Zheng saw that the atmosphere was still a little awkward. After thinking about it, he took the initiative to open his mouth. It looked like a joke, but in fact he was apologizing.
"Good."
Pei Wufu smiled and didn't seem to care about what had happened before.
"Wufu, I know you have a lot. But in a while, our Qin family will toast you one by one. You have to be prepared. Qin Zheng said in a joking tone again. While opening his mouth, he looked at Pei Wufu with a smile on his face.
Pei Wufu knew that Qin Zheng was using an obscure way to test whether he would forgive the Qin family's behavior, and still smiled with a simple smile: "Those who come will not refuse."
Hearing Pei Wufu's words again, Qin Hongshan, Qin Zheng and his wife, Qin Feng and others sitting at the main table were somewhat relieved.
In their opinion, no matter whether Pei Wufu will give some support to the Qin family in the future, at least Pei Wufu will not target the Qin family.
as if to confirm their speculation. After the wine and vegetables were served, before Qin Zheng punished himself for three cups, Pei Wufu took the initiative to toast to Qin Hongshan: "Mr. Qin, we will be in-laws in the future. I would like to toast you a cup and wish you a birthday than Nanshan."
"Thank you...thank you."
Seeing Pei Wufu taking the initiative to toast, Qin Hongshan smiled and said, "Wufu, our family will not talk about the two families in the future. The Qin family is the home of you and Donglai. You often go home to have a look.
Hearing Qin Hongshan's words, he recalled what had happened when he came here alone before. Although Pei Donglai had experienced the ruthlessness and snobbery of the emperor's family, he still smiled bitterly in his heart.
In addition to a wry smile, it also reminded him of a sentence - there are no eternal friends in this world, only eternal interests.
As if she could understand Pei Donglai's mood, Qin Dongxue held Pei Donglai's hand under the table and handed Pei Donglai an apologetic look.
Pei Donglai smiled and wrote two words on Qin Dongxue's hand: It's okay.
After finishing writing, Pei Donglai suddenly found out. I don't know when Qin Dongxue's beautiful face climbed up a wisp of cray of cichong, like a delicate rose, which was so beautiful that it was palpitating.
After toasting with Qin Hongshan, Pei Wufu had another drink with Qin Zheng and his wife. Qin Zheng took the initiative to consciously punish himself for three cups, and then clinked with Pei Wufu.
"Grandpa Qin, I would also like to propose a toast to you. I wish you good health and longevity. Seeing that Pei Wufu had no intention of toasting, Qin Feng wanted to toast Pei Wufu. As a result, before he could speak, Pei Donglai picked up his glass and walked to Qin Hongshan.
"Thank you for coming. Grandpa also wishes you and Dongxue love each other until you grow old."
In the face of Pei Donglai's toast, Qin Hongshan seemed to have forgotten what had happened before, with a kind smile.
"Uncle, auntie, I would like to propose a toast to you. I wish you good health and success in your work." After toasting Qin Hongshan, Pei Donglai toasted Qin Zheng and his wife again.
"Donglai, Dongxue has been stubborn since she was a child. If she quarrels with you in the future, you can call and tell your uncle that he will help you teach her." Qin Zheng, like Qin Hongshan, said nothing about the previous things, acting as if nothing had happened, with a smile on his face.
In contrast, Xiao Ailing, who tried to use the word "family life" to let Pei Dong know that it was difficult to retreat, was still very embarrassed, and she felt that she couldn't wait to find a hole to get in.
Because it was too embarrassing, Xiao Ailing just smiled apologetically and didn't say anything. She picked up the glass and drank it all.
"Suntie, I wish you eternal youth and beauty forever."
After toasting Qin Zheng and his wife, Pei Donglai did not toast Qin Feng, who gave himself two times, but to Qin Yan, who unconditionally supported himself and Qin Dongxue together.
"Dong Lai is really good at talking."
Women like to praise, and Qin Yan is no exception. Originally, she was happy that Pei Donglai and Qin Yan could be together. At this time, when she heard Pei Donglai's blessing, she smiled brightly: "Love each other and happiness forever, and the same virtuous happiness. Auntie, I hope your relationship is deeper than the sea!"
When the voice fell, Qin Yan drank it all.
Pei Donglai did not toast several other core members of the Qin family, including Qin Feng, but returned to his seat with a glass.
Seeing this, Qin Dongxue picked up the glass, walked to Pei Wufu and said, "Uncle Pei, Dongxue wishes you good health."
"Dong Xue, maybe you know, as long as I want, when you and Donglai are together at the beginning, I can take Donglai to the Qin family to propose marriage. In that way, Donglai won't suffer so much white eyes, and you don't have to be under great pressure.
Pei Wufu took the wine glass in Qin Dongxue's hand, but he was not in a hurry to drink it, but sighed gently and said, "But... Anyway, you should know Donglai. He is a very proud person - when he was a child, he thought I was a poor farmer. In order to fulfill my vow to buy a house and Study hard, from childhood to childhood has always been the first. Later, in order to prove that he could match you and qualified to enter the Qin family, he had been working silently. After being wronged and bleeding, he never said anything. He just found an empty corner to lick the wound secretly, summarize the failure experience, continue to work hard, keep fighting, and keep moving forward!"
Qin Dongxue's eyes turned red and nodded vigorously.
"He works hard, he has a high fighting spirit, and he will never say defeat - these are his proud confidence and capital, and his roar against fate!"
"A father, I know my son better than anyone else, so no matter what he does, I will support him unconditionally."
Pei Wufu said this, turned his eyes to Pei Donglai again, and smiled happily, "To be clear, today, I'm not proud of what I've done before. I'm only proud of my son - he didn't lose the face of the old Pei family!"
In an instant.
Pei Wufu's words resounded throughout the banquet hall.
The huge banquet hall is silent.
Qin Dongxue bit her lips tightly and burst into tears.
Including Qin Hongshan, all the Qin family couldn't help lowering their heads. They didn't dare to look at Pei Wufu's face, which was once full of sloppy beard, and they didn't dare to look at the teenager who had been straight since he entered the Yanjing Hotel.
This day.
Heavy snow in the capital.
Pei Donglai is famous in Jinghua. ( To be continued.
