Tonight's dinner was specially decided by the third bedroom of the Ning family and the second bedroom of the Huo family to discuss the wedding date.
Pei Haizhu didn't go, but she sent Pei Buyu with her.
Because the Ning family was not worth a trip in person.
But she didn't expect that Mrs. Ning didn't go either. Apart from Ning Kunming, the only person involved was Ning Zicheng.
These two are the only representatives of the entire Ning family.
Obviously, the Ning family's attitude towards this engagement was very disdainful and perfunctory.
What's even more surprising is that after a dinner, the marriage that was agreed upon was actually suppressed by the Ning family in the end, and the wedding was postponed until Huo Shirui gave birth to a child.
"You are useless, even Xiaorui is looked down upon." Pei Haizhu's tone was still indifferent, and his eyes as cold as celadon fell on Huo Zhongkang, "Even if Xiaorui is at fault, you are the great little Huo Dong of the Huo family, you are the father Yes, is there nothing wrong? After kneeling for so long, even Ning Kunming made your legs weak?"
"Pei Haizhu, please watch your words!"
Huo Zhongkang stretched his neck, but did not dare to say a harsh word. He only said angrily, "You don't even look at what she did. My old face has been completely disgraced! How can I be tough if you ask me to?" It makes me so angry!"
"Only those who are incompetent will blame their daughter, but those who are capable..." Pei Haizhu paused, and on his cold and elegant face like celadon, the corners of his lips slightly raised a hint of ridicule, "A person who is capable can make everyone Everyone shut up."
Huo Zhongkang's neck was so angry that it felt stiff.
When Pei Haizhu married him in the early years, it was obviously not like this. Over the years, he has become more and more good at eating fish, just finding faults!
He didn't feel that he had done anything wrong, but Pei Buyi, who was on the side, felt ashamed when he heard the words.
In fact, under the circumstances at that time, Ning Kunming could completely block the wedding date.
Yan Qiang's words were obviously a deliberate frame-up, deliberately provoking conflicts between the Ning and Huo families. She knew that the Ning family was very resistant to the marriage, so she deliberately said those words.
In fact, there is no empirical evidence.
As long as he and Huo Zhongkang were stronger and tougher at that time, it would be impossible for the Ning family to postpone their wedding.
But Huo Shirui's private life was really messy, and Yan Qiang said it, so he believed it at the time, so he didn't give Huo Shirui and Huo Zhongkang a positive and strong feedback, which led to the current situation.
"Sorry, auntie, I didn't do this well."
Pei Buyu admitted his mistake promptly.
Huo Zhongkang got off the slope and looked at Pei Buyu, "You are the same, I just went out for a while, how could you let things become like this!"
All of a sudden, the whole pot was thrown to Pei Buyu.
Huo Shiqian, who was in a daze, was speechless when she heard her father's words.
"Then Auntie, I will-"
Before he could finish speaking a few words, he was interrupted by Huo Shirui forcefully: "Then what should I do now?"
Pei Buyu stared at her.
He could have left, but this sentence made him stay again.
Not surprisingly, he has to take care of the aftermath.
In all these years, the Pei and Huo family had never produced such a stupid person. In comparison, he liked the quiet Huo Shiqian more.
Looking up, he caught the sight of his aunt Pei Haizhu.
Pei Buyu said: "..."
Tired.
"Wait." He said, "The Ning family has decided to postpone the wedding. At this time, don't worry about face. Just force them to get married."
Huo Shirui's eyes lit up: "Do you have any idea?"
She had already disliked Ning Zicheng. When Huo Zhongkang asked her to marry Ning Zicheng, she was actually disgusted.
But it's one thing if she doesn't want to marry, and it's another thing if the Ning family doesn't want to marry.
She, Huo Shirui, married into the third room of the Ning family, so she had to look at the expression of the third room of the Ning family?
Pei Buyu nodded: "Yes."
…
Huang Qinying was kidnapped, and Huang Yuan arrived at Jinghai that night.
This is no small matter.
After separating from Huo Qi and Xiao Jingshan, the Yan family brothers and sisters did not go back to the Yan family directly, but went to Mansion No. 1.
Huang Qinying was very excited and kept talking in the group.
Yan Qiang felt something was wrong with her.
In Mansion No. 1, Uncle Tao saw Yan Qiang and Yan Ce coming to visit and welcomed them in. Faced with their request to visit, Uncle Tao shook his head: "The eldest lady took a bath after she came back and went to bed."
"She's not sleeping." Yan Qiang took out her cell phone and said to Uncle Tao, "She has been sending messages non-stop. She must be very nervous, but she doesn't dare to let you know. I'll go up and see her."
Uncle Tao glanced at the messages on Yan Qiang's phone. Huang Qinying had spoken just a few minutes ago.
Just thinking about it, he understood.
"I was negligent."
Uncle Tao took Yan Qiang upstairs. Yan Ce did not go up, but waited in the living room while the servant poured tea for her.
The knock on the door made Huang Qinying jump.
She said nothing.
"Xiaobao, it's me, Yan Qiang." Yan Qiang said outside the door, "I came here to chat with you."
The lights in the room turned on for an instant, and the light came out from the crack in the door, followed by the sound of footsteps.
There was a "click", the sound of unlocking.
The moment the door opened, Huang Qinying suddenly hugged Yan Qiang, "How about you sleep here with me tonight?"
Huang Qinying felt a little uncomfortable with the bed.
In addition to today's kidnapping, although she was unconscious all the time, she was dropped halfway, so she didn't dare to sleep.
Yan Qiang looked at Uncle Tao.
Uncle Tao didn't expect that the eldest lady had not slept since she came back, and had locked the door, which made her feel a little distressed.
"As long as Miss Yan doesn't mind," Uncle Tao said, "Miss Yan, why don't you talk to Mr. Yan first?"
"Yan Ce is here too?" Huang Qinying was a little surprised.
"Yeah. He thought you might be a little uncomfortable, so we came here together."
"Quite thoughtful."
Huang Qinying went downstairs with Yan Qiang in her pajamas. At the sofa, Yan Ce stood up when he saw them coming downstairs.
"Are you busy tonight?" Huang Qinying asked him.
Yan Ce: "It's okay for now." Yan Ce said.
Huang Qinying: "Then don't go back tonight. I'll call a few more people over, and you will risk your lives to accompany me tonight."
After saying that, she looked at Uncle Tao and said, "Uncle Tao, do you mind if I have a big party here tonight?"
How could Uncle Tao mind?
How could he not understand by now that the eldest lady was unable to sleep and was afraid, so she wanted to find someone to accompany her.
"Just tell me what you need, young lady, and I'll arrange it right away."
"Prepare some food and drink. I remember there should be a few bottles of treasure in the wine cellar. I'll take them out soon."
"good."
Huang Qinying immediately started shaking people.
In fact, she really didn't know many people in Jinghai, so she moved all the people she knew over.
She knew her brother would be arriving soon, so she also invited Huo Qi and Assistant Wen.
Wen Yiran was a little confused when he received the call.
Miss Huang, it's so late and she's still having a party at Mansion No. 1?
"Mr. Huo, are you going?"
They were almost at Jingyuan now.
Huo Qi had been keeping his eyes closed in the back, the fragrance still lingering between his lips and teeth. He opened his eyes with a deep look: "Why don't you go?"
Go catch a fox.
