The Lin family's old house is located at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain, with pleasant scenery and good Feng Shui. It is said that this was the site chosen by the Lin family's master Feng Shui Kanyu, but I don't know if it is the Dongfang family.
In short, after the Lin family moved here, the family's strength increased day by day under the management of several generations, and until today, it is considered a famous family in the southwest.
The Lin family's old house is a landscape garden compatible with the north and the south. It is surrounded by green trees and flowers. Anyone standing outside cannot see the real face of the Lin family. Only through the garden in front can you reach the main site of the Lin family's old house in the back.
After Chen Qiming drove the Volvo S90 for five minutes, they arrived at the main entrance of the Lin family's old house. The entrance was a square paved with bluestone slabs. Opposite the square stood a towering three-door door of a pure wooden building.
It is estimated that the construction of this gate alone would cost millions. It is a bit like the palace gate in a costume TV series.
In the middle, the two characters "Lin Family" are written in official script.
After Su Qin got out of the car, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's really impressive."
This is somewhat similar to the Su Qin family's ancestral hall deep in the Qinling Mountains, except that the Su family's has been built on a high mountain and looks more majestic. Not to mention the building complex at the foot of the mountain, it looks more like an ancient town.
After Lin Xi got off the car, she felt inexplicably oppressed. She didn't like coming to the Lin family's old house. She always felt it was too gloomy. She didn't know why her grandparents liked to live here, so she didn't go back to the Lin family's old house very often.
Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin are talking about taking care of themselves for a thousand years, but at their age they still have no intention of delegating power. How can they cultivate their moral character?
Lin Xi breathed a long sigh of relief, and Su Qin held his hand in time, signaling with his eyes that he didn't need to be nervous.
Shangguan Hu, the chief butler of the Lin family, was already waiting at the door. He was a somewhat thin old man who looked to be at least in his sixties.
When he came over, Lin Xi greeted politely: "Uncle Hu."
"Oh, Lin Xi, you are finally back. You don't know that the family has been in chaos these past few days because of you. Listen to Uncle Hu's advice not to be rebellious again. The old man and the old lady are both angry." Uncle Hub seemed to be angry with Lin Xi. Some feelings, spoken from the heart.
Lin Xi did not answer the call, but just introduced: "Uncle Hu, this is my boyfriend Su Qin."
Lin Xi's words blocked everything that Uncle Huber wanted to say. Uncle Huber shook his head and sighed bitterly, looked sideways at Su Qin and said, "Are you Su Qin?"
Su Qin nodded and said, "I am."
"Everyone is already waiting for you inside. Come in with me." Uncle Huber said in a nonchalant manner. He liked Lin Xi very much and liked this child, but he was not necessarily polite to Su Qin. Who made Su Qin an outsider?
Su Qin was not angry, and took Lin Xi's hand and followed Uncle Hu into the Lin house.
Chen Qiming followed behind with a few gifts. Naturally, the etiquette of the first visit should not be neglected. Su Qin always does what he should do well. As for how others respond, that is other people's business.
The Lin family's old house has its own unique cave, with a neat and orderly layout, pavilions, pavilions, eaves and green tiles, intertwined, twists and turns, exquisite and elegant yet majestic. The garden is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is pleasant.
As soon as I walked through the small hallway at the second door, my eyes suddenly opened up. There were carved beams and paintings everywhere, rare flowers and rare herbs, and a small creek meandering through the corridor, pouring from the depths of the flowers and trees into a small pool surrounded by strange rocks. Like a fairyland.
I have to say that the Lin family is really wealthy, and the old man and the old lady of the Lin family really know how to enjoy themselves.
At this time, they finally arrived at the main hall of the Lin family. The main hall was also an antique wooden building and was already filled with everyone from the Lin family.
Su Qin looked at Lin Xi. Lin Xi's face was pale. Su Qin couldn't help but squeeze Lin Xi's hand, then raised his legs and walked into the main hall of the Lin family.
When Su Qin walked into the main hall, he simply looked around and saw many old acquaintances.
Lin Xi's parents Lin Wangningqing, Lin Xi's aunt Lin Ting and cousin Tang Wan. Tang Wan subconsciously wanted to say hello to Su Qin Linxi, but suddenly remembered that this was the Lin family hall, and was so frightened that she only dared to glance at Su Qin Linxi.
As for the other people, Su Qin didn't know them.
Everyone stared at Su Qin and Lin Xi with complicated expressions.
Looking at Lin Xi, he may be more disappointed. I don't know why Lin Xi wants to make things happen to this point. Is this young man named Su Qin really that good?
So that he can fight against the entire family, so that he can ignore anyone, not even his parents.
Many people say that Lin Xi is a love brain, but they don’t know that Lin Xi will unswervingly choose because of what she wants, instead of choosing marriage for the so-called glory, wealth and future. What is the meaning of such a life? ?
When he looked at Su Qin, some of them were curious and confused, some were filled with disgust and hatred, and some were nothing more than that.
For example, the eldest son has two sons. One is curious and confused as to how this boy managed to catch up with his beautiful sister. The other thinks that this boy is quite ordinary. How can he still leave his second uncle and his second mother helpless?
Lin Ting is the one who hates and hates her. The one she likes most is Julien Ye. This is true at any time. But who let Su Qin come out to disrupt the situation? How can she not hate and hate him?
Everyone's eyes were focused on Su Qin and Lin Xi. Lin Xi felt a little uncomfortable, especially the way her parents looked at her, which made her feel ashamed.
Su Qin looked at Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin who were sitting on the throne and said, neither humble nor overbearing: "Junior Su Qin, I have taken the liberty to come to visit and hope that Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin will forgive me."
Mr. Lin didn't say anything, and Mrs. Lin snorted coldly: "Since you know it's presumptuous, why do you still dare to come?"
Su Qin said in a deep voice: "I am Lin Xi's boyfriend. Since I have come to Xishu, I should come and visit."
"Who admitted that you are Lin Xi's boyfriend?" Lin Ting retorted impatiently. She was the person in the Lin family who had the biggest objection to Su Qin.
Su Qin looked at Lin Ting and said, "Aunt, I am Lin Xi's boyfriend. It is enough for her to admit it. As for other people, I don't care."
"Don't call me aunt, I'm not your aunt." Lin Ting said angrily.
Lin Ting ignited the flames of war when she came up. Su Qin didn't tolerate him and said: "I call you aunt, that's out of respect for you. Whether you agree or not is up to you."
Lin Ting still wanted to speak, but Mr. Lin stopped her with his eyes. Mr. Lin stared at Su Qin with venomous eyes and said, "Are you Su Qin?"
"Grandpa Lin, I am Su Qin." Su Qin repeated.
Mr. Lin said very directly: "Originally we didn't want to see you, but you are Lin Xi's so-called boyfriend after all, so it doesn't hurt to meet. I just want to ask you, did Lin Xi tell you that she is already engaged?"
"I told you, but Lin Xi also told me that she didn't like Yu Lianye, so she rejected the engagement." Su Qin responded.
Mr. Lin said sternly: "She is a descendant of the Lin family. Her marriage is not decided by her, but by her parents, so her refusal will not work."
Su Qin laughed dumbly and said: "Grandpa Lin, what age are we in, aren't your ideas too feudal? Isn't love free in today's society? I like Lin Xi, Lin Xi likes me, all of this is enough."
"Presumptuous, who are you calling feudalistic?" Mrs. Lin said angrily.
Su Qin could come to the Lin family and say these words in a neither humble nor condescending way. Lin Wang already had a high opinion of Su Qin. If Lin Xi hadn't been engaged, he would definitely hand over Lin Xi to Su Qin with confidence.
Such a man is responsible and his daughter will naturally be happy if he follows him.
Lin Wang couldn't help but stood up and said: "Su Qin, Lin Xi is engaged, so stop struggling. I just think you both like each other, but some things can't be changed. It's not too late for you to leave Xishu now, so I'll treat it as the past." Nothing happened, I guarantee nothing will happen to you."
Lin Wang's words made Su Qin a little relieved, but Su Qin said: "Uncle Lin, I came here today just to make this matter clear. I will definitely not leave until I make it clear."
"Why are you so stubborn?" Lin Wang said speechlessly.
Ning Qing didn't say anything, she just looked at Su Qin. Did she really not know why Su Qin came to humiliate himself?
Su Qin said loudly at this time: "You have never respected Lin Xi's opinion about the marriage contract between Lin Xi and Julien Ye, and you have let her marry someone you don't like regardless of whether she wants it or not? In their eyes, they are you Are the children of the Lin family just an item of equal value exchange?"
"You are so presumptuous. Do you know where this place is? Don't think that because you have a small background, you dare to run wild in the Lin family." Mrs. Lin slapped the table and shouted.
Su Qin chuckled and said: "Grandma, whether I have a background or not is my business. I just want to ask you if you are willing to listen to Lin Xi's opinion? If Lin Xi agrees to get engaged to Yu Lianye, I, Su Qin, will leave Xishu without saying anything. If If Lin Xi doesn’t want to, then it doesn’t matter who said it.”
Su Qin's attitude at this moment was quite polite, but it was just polite.
Old Mrs. Lin still wanted to reprimand Su Qin, but Mr. Lin interrupted the old lady. He looked at Lin Xi and said: "Lin Xi, tell grandpa whether you agree to this engagement or not. Don't be in a hurry to answer. Think carefully about the Lin family's relationship with her. How about you? From childhood to adulthood, you have lived a life of fine clothing and fine food, enjoying the best treatment and the best life. Then think about your parents and how much they have paid for you. Even if you don't do it for the Lin family, We also have to consider them. All of us are doing this for your own good. Are you still young and know what happiness is? Don’t do stupid things."
Lin Xi's eyes were a little painful. She looked at her aggressive grandparents, her expectant father, and her mother who didn't want to pay attention to her at all. She said painfully: "Grandpa, I don't like brother Lian Ye. What I like is Su Qin." , I want to be with Su Qin."
"Lin Xi, do you know what you are talking about? Do you want to be kicked out of the Lin family?" Old Mrs. Lin said angrily.
Lin Xi said loudly: "Grandpa, even if I leave the Lin family and just live the most ordinary life with Su Qin, I am willing."
Lin Ting couldn't help but accuse: "Lin Xi, you are really unreasonable. You have disgraced the Lin family."
Mr. Lin sighed and shook his head with a bitter smile. He did not expect that Lin Xi, whom he had heard of the most, would now become the most rebellious person in the Lin family.
Lin Wang was a little disappointed, while Ning Qing was more helpless.
Only Tang Wan was worried about Su Qin and Lin Xi. Why was he like this?
Why do everyone in the Lin family insist on breaking up their sister and brother-in-law?
The sister likes the brother-in-law, and the brother-in-law also likes the sister. This is the most beautiful love, why should it be like this?
At this moment, Logan was also worried about her future self. It seemed that her love was destined to not go smoothly.
As for the eldest son and his family, they were all just watching the excitement, and the matter was of no concern to them anyway.
"Lin Xi has been brainwashed by Su Qin. Let her calm down for a while. Someone will take Lin Xi down." The old lady ordered directly before the old man could say anything else.
Immediately at the door, two Lin family bodyguards came in and prepared to take Lin Xi away. At this moment, they challenged Su Qin's background. Su Qin looked unhappy and said: "I came here today because I wanted to have a good chat with you. If you agree to give up the engagement, then It doesn’t matter, but if you play hard, don’t blame me for being rude.”
"You're not welcome? You're not welcome to try. Do you know where this is? This is the Lin family." The old lady said angrily: "Take Lin Xi away."
The two bodyguards immediately stepped forward to take action. Su Qin shouted loudly: "Who dares to touch Lin Xi?"
Lin Xi also hugged Su Qin tightly. She didn't want to leave Su Qin, and she also knew that once she left Su Qin today, it would be difficult to see Su Qin again.
Chen Qiming directly stopped the two Lin family bodyguards and threatened: "I advise you not to go forward."
"I don't believe you dare to do anything to the Lin family." The old lady said, unable to bear it anymore.
Su Qin was unwilling to take action, so he shouted at this time: "Mr. Lin, Mrs. Lin, you refuse to recognize the relationship between me and Lin Xi, isn't it just because we have an engagement with the Yu family? What if the Yu family takes the initiative to terminate the engagement?"
Everyone immediately started whispering.
Even Lin Xi's parents looked at each other, wondering what Su Qin meant by this.
Mr. Lin frowned and said, "What do you mean by that?"
"I said the Yu family took the initiative to terminate the engagement?" Su Qin repeated loudly.
Lin Ting laughed loudly and said: "Do you know what you are going to say? Impossible, absolutely impossible. Do you know that the Yu family and our Lin family are family friends, and the marriage between the two families has been decided for a long time. Besides, Lian Ye's child is so If you like Lin Xi, how could the Yu family take the initiative to terminate the engagement?"
"Why is it impossible? If the Yu family takes the initiative to terminate the engagement, will you recognize my relationship with Lin Xi?" Su Qin asked again.
Lin Wang looked at Ning Qing and asked in a low voice: "Is there any way he can get the Yu family to terminate the engagement?"
Ning Qing couldn't understand Su Qin more and more. First, he didn't know why he suddenly came to visit the Lin family, and he didn't know where he got the confidence to confront the old man and the old lady. Now he suddenly said such unbelievable words.
"I don't know, this is impossible." Ning Qing shook her head and said.
Lin Wang said thoughtfully: "If the Lin family takes the initiative to contact the marriage contract, will you agree to Lin Xi and Su Qin being together?"
"Then you know how?" Ning Qing asked.
Lin Wang already had some appreciation for Su Qin. He chuckled and said, "I would agree. I think this guy is very good."
Ning Qing said nothing. If it weren't for Yu Lianye, it seemed that she would agree based on what Su Qin did today.
Mr. Lin was laughed at by Su Qin. The Lin and Yu families were close friends for generations. How could they easily terminate the engagement? Besides, the Yu family had been urging for an engagement two days ago.
Mr. Lin said happily: "Okay, if you can make the Yu family take the initiative to terminate the engagement, I will recognize your relationship with Lin Xi."
Su Qin said with a smile: "Okay, it's a deal."
After saying that, Su Qin dialed Yu Zhenwei's phone number. When he left last night, he left Yu Zhenwei's phone number. After the call was connected, Su Qin directly identified himself and said: "I am Su Qin."
Yu Zhenwei over there said tremblingly: "Master Su, what are your orders?"
"You can now ask your Mr. Yu family to call Mr. Lin to terminate the engagement." Su Qin said in a nonchalant manner, and hung up the phone immediately after speaking.
When Su Qin finished the call, Lin Xiao, the son of Lin Xi's eldest uncle Lin Han, couldn't help laughing and said: "Brother, are you talking about cross talk? Who do you think you are? You can make Grandpa Yu give me Grandpa called to break the engagement?"
Lin Ting also laughed loudly and said: "I was very angry at first, but now I want to laugh."
Others couldn't help but laugh, thinking that Su Qin was here to make a joke. How could Su Qin fix the relationship between Lin and Yu's family with just one phone call? Who did he think he was?
But at this moment, Mr. Lin's phone suddenly rang. Although the Lin family hall was very busy at this time, Mr. Lin's special opera ringtone still attracted everyone's attention.
It can't be true, right?
Just kidding?
Mr. Lin was also stunned for a moment. When he saw the caller ID above, his face suddenly turned pale, thinking that it was impossible, absolutely impossible.
"Dad, whose phone number is it?" Lin Han couldn't help but ask.
Others are also waiting for Mr. Lin's answer.
Even Mrs. Lin asked urgently: "Whose call is it? Why didn't you answer it?"
Mr. Lin looked at Su Qin and answered the phone calmly. Everyone stopped making noise.
When the call was connected, the old man of the Yu family over there said without concealment: "Old Lin, I'm sorry, please cancel the engagement of the two children. I owe you a favor to the Lin family."
After saying this, Mr. Yu hung up the phone directly because he didn't know what to say.
Does it make sense to say anything else?
The Yu family took the initiative to terminate their engagement. Wasn't this humiliating the Lin family?
Anyone would be angry, let alone the proud Lin family.
Mr. Lin was dumbfounded while holding the phone, and did not recover for a long time. He did not expect that just as Su Qin said, the Yu family took the initiative to terminate the engagement.
But why did the Yu family do this?
Could it be that this kid really forced the Yu family?
So what is this guy's background?
Everyone was staring at Mr. Lin. After an unknown amount of time, Mr. Lin finally came to his senses. At this moment, he was extremely angry. He suddenly stood up and slammed the phone in his hand on the ground.
This scene frightened everyone in the Lin family.
Then Mr. Lin stood up quickly and walked towards Su Qin angrily. When he reached Su Qin, he yelled loudly: "How did you do that?"
At this moment, the whole place was in an uproar, and the entire Lin family hall was extremely noisy.
Because everyone understood that what Su Qin just said was true, and the Yu family really took the initiative to terminate the engagement.
What's the matter?
