In the hall of Qi family in the capital.
The owner of the Qi family, Qi YuYan's grandfather, is sitting on the main seat of the living room drinking tea. On both sides are members of the Qi family, including Qi YuYan's father and mother.
Qi YuYan's grandfather's name is Qi Fangde. Now he is appointed as a minister of a ministry in Beijing. At this age, there is almost no possibility of rising. After a minister's term, he will retire. At present, the Qi family has the most influence in the capital, and it is also a second-class force. However, Qi Fangde is also ambitious and has always wanted to develop the Qi family into a first-class family.
The population of the Qi family is still prosperous. Qi Fangde has two sons and a daughter. The eldest son is Qi Guoqiang, while Qi Yuyan is the daughter of his youngest son Qi Guocheng, and the other daughter is Qi Guorong.
Qi Fangde put down his tea cup, looked at Qi YuYan's parents and said, "what did you say to Yu Yan yesterday? Did she agree to Li's marriage?"
"Father, I've talked to Yuyan about this. She said she would think about it." Qi Guocheng said quickly.
"That's good. I don't know how Yuyan thinks about it? I think Yuyan should agree. With the power of the Li family and the excellence of Li Rufeng, Yuyan has no reason to refuse. " Qi Fangde said with a smile.
Qi Fangde wants to make the Qi family stronger, but his heart is more than his strength. The second generation of the highest achievement of the Qi family, that is, the department level cadres, is hard to have the chance to continue to develop. Therefore, Qi Fangde has always regarded Qi Yuyan as a chip in his hand, so that the Qi family can get powerful external help through marriage.
Li family is one of the four big families in the capital. They are powerful and can compete with the Li family. Li Rufeng will be the key training object of the Li family and the candidate for the future leader of the Li family. Therefore, it is in Qi Fangde's heart to get married with the Li family, and the opportunity for the Qi family to become more powerful has come.
It is conceivable that Qi Fangde's wish of many years can now be realized. Although this opportunity is not very good and needs to sacrifice the happiness of his granddaughter to maintain the development of the family, who cares? Almost every family will. In order to make the family strong and gain more benefits, it doesn't matter how mean it is.
"This," Qi Guocheng hesitated, not knowing how to say.
"Where's Yuyan? Why didn't I see her? Didn't I let her go home today? " Qi Fangde asked with a frown.
"Father, Yuyan has gone home, but she has been locked up in her room for a day and a night. She has been thinking about it all the time?" Qi YuYan's mother Wu Liping said.
"What's to think about? The Li family can take the initiative to propose marriage this time. The object of marriage is still the best descendants of the Li family. What else is she dissatisfied with? This child is just too high spirited. Don't forget, she's a woman. She always wants to get married and have children. " Qi Fangde said angrily.
Looking at Qi Fangde's appearance, Wu Liping couldn't help sighing: "it seems that the marriage of the Li family makes the old man see the hope. He insists on this matter and is extremely urgent. She is eager to let Qi Yuyan marry into the Li family immediately."
"Immediately go and call Yuyan for me. I'll ask her face to face." Qi Fangde snorted coldly, showing the dignity of the head of the family. The people below immediately lowered their heads and no one spoke.
"Yes, father, I'll call Yuyan right away." Wu Liping bowed her head and said.
Wu Liping sighed and walked out of the living room to Qi YuYan's room. She couldn't help feeling sad and said, "daughter, it seems that your grandfather is determined to marry the Li family this time. I hope you can think about it clearly and agree to your grandfather's request. Otherwise, there will definitely be a storm in the Qi family."
But if you think about the personality of your daughter, I'm afraid the marriage will never be smooth sailing. I hope there won't be any mistakes.
"Yuyan, are you in the room?" Wu Liping knocked on the door and asked.
"Mom, I'm in the room. You wait a moment. I'll open the door for you." The house Qi jade Yan opens mouth to say.
After a while, the door opened and Wu Liping felt heartache when she saw Qi Yuyan. At this time, Qi Yuyan was very tired, her eyes were full of blood, but her haggard look could not cover up her peerless face. Wu Liping has no pride in her life. The only thing to be proud of is her beautiful and excellent daughter.
Looking at her daughter's haggard look, Wu Liping said with great heartache: "daughter, why are you suffering?"
"Mom, I've thought it over. You don't have to worry." Qi Yuyan said with a smile.
"That's good, but daughter, remember, no matter what kind of decision you make, don't regret it. The road is your own choice, so you should stick to it. And you, no matter what kind of decision you make, mom will support you. Mom just wants you to be happy in the future, and I don't have any other extravagant hopes. " Wu Liping looks at her daughter, full of love.
"Mom, thank you. No matter what happens in the future, you will always be my favorite." Qi Yuyan looked at Wu Liping and said.
"It seems that the daughter's decision will be different from that of the old man." Hearing her daughter's words, Wu Liping couldn't help worrying.
"Now that you have made a decision, please come to see your grandfather with me and solve everything thoroughly." Wu Liping said.
"All right, mom, you wait for me for a moment, and I'll sort it out." Qi Yuyan said with a smile.
"Daughter, don't worry, you sort it out slowly, I'll wait for you." Wu Liping looked at her daughter lovingly and said.
After a while, Qi Yuyan walked out of the room. Wu Liping felt that although Qi Yuyan was still very tired, her confident and capable daughter came back. At the same time, her confidence was firm.
"Come on, meet your grandfather." Wu Liping and Qi Yuyan go to the living room together.
"Father, I brought the child Yuyan." Wu Liping took Qi Yuyan into the living room and said.
"Grandfather, I'm coming." After Qi Yuyan came in, she said hello to Qi Fangde and said hello to the others.
For Qi Yuyan, Qi Fangde is very satisfied. This granddaughter is not only beautiful, but also has outstanding ability. Among the younger generation, she is also an amazing person.
"It's a pity that it's a daughter, otherwise Qi Yuyan will be the best third generation of the Qi family." Qi Fangde often expressed such feelings.
"Yuyan, my grandfather called you here just to ask you if you agree with the Li family's marriage?" Qi Fangde doesn't want to beat around the Bush now. He wants to know what Qi Yuyan really thinks.
"Grandfather, do you want to hear what I really think?" Qi Yuyan asked quietly.
"Of course, I just want to know what you really think." Qi Fangde said firmly.
"Well, grandfather, since you want to know what I really think, do you think it's important? Will you agree with me? " Qi Yuyan calmly looked at Qi Fangde and asked, with no sadness or happiness on her face.
"In the family, everyone's ideas must follow a premise, that is, they must safeguard the interests of the family." Feeling a bad sign, Qi Fangde quickly took out the family's interests.
"In my grandfather's eyes, only the interests of the family, is the interests of the family more important than the happiness of my granddaughter's later life? For the sake of the family, can we let our descendants sacrifice everything? " Qi Yuyan stood there and continued to ask.
"Yuyan, what's your attitude? How can I talk to my elders like this? " Qi Fangde did not speak, Qi YuYan's uncle Qi Guoqiang said in the side.
Qi YuYan's great uncle, Qi Guoqiang, is the most important person in Qi Fangde's family. He is also the highest ranking cadre in Qi family after Qi Fangde. As an important training cadre of Qi family, all the resources of Qi family are used on him. He is an absolute supporter of the marriage with the Li family this time, because if the marriage can be successful, his position can be further enhanced with the help of the power of the Li family.
"Second younger brother and younger sister, you have spoiled Yuyan. Do you talk to your elders like this?" Seeing that Qi Yuyan directly ignores him, Qi Guoqiang makes trouble to Qi YuYan's parents.
"Well, don't say it." Qi Fangde felt very upset and yelled at the crowd.
Then he said to Qi Yuyan, "what do you think?"
"My idea is that I don't want to marry Li family or Li Rufeng of Li family." Qi Yuyan said directly.
"Why? Why on earth is that? " Qi Fangde roared like a powder keg.
"As the top family in Beijing, you still despise Li family. Li Rufeng, as the key talent of Li family, will be in charge of the whole Li family in the future. Can't such excellent talents match you? What do you want? You can't even look up to such a well-off family. What kind of talent and influence do you think are worthy of you? " Qi Fangde asked angrily.
"Father, you calm down. Yuyan doesn't mean that. You listen to her explanation." Qi Guocheng looks at the angry Qi Fangde and says in fear.
"That's right, father. This girl is too shameful. You should take good care of yourself. Don't be angry." Qi Guoqiang also said in the side to please.
"Tell me, why? I want to know why you don't want to marry into the Li family? " Qi Fangde asked with a calm breath.
Although that air silk is very calm, it is like the calm before the storm, indicating that a storm is coming.
