Chapter 69:
Breaking off the Engagement Ji Yanting told Ji Yuanming, "After breakfast, you will leave for Beijing." He finally reunited with his wife and daughter, and he didn't want anyone to disturb them.
"Okay." Ji Yuanming nodded in response.
Seeing Ling Xuemei coming out of the room, Ji Yanting waved to Ji Yuanming.
Ji Yuanming walked out with understanding.
Ji Yanting walked up to Ling Xuemei, lowered his head and quickly kissed Ling Xuemei on the face, and said softly: "Xuemei, good morning!"
Ling Xuemei's face immediately turned red, and she looked outside in panic, her face full of shame, "Be careful not to be seen by Yaoyao."
Ji Yanting didn't care, and smiled and took Ling Xuemei's hand, "Let her see it, anyway, we are husband and wife, legal. Let's go, I will make breakfast for our daughter together."
Ling Xuemei struggled for a few times, but failed to break free from Ji Yanting's hand, so she could only let him hold her with a red face.
Ji Yanting held Ling Xuemei's hand tightly, and a happy smile appeared on his face.
Ling Yao saw the two of them holding hands and smiled faintly, retracted her gaze, and continued to exercise. This is good.
In the old house of the Ji family in the capital, Grandpa Ji has received the news that Ji Yanting and Ling Xuemei have reunited.
He sat on the sofa with a complicated expression on his face, holding the teacup tightly in his hand. The water in the cup has already cooled, but he has not touched a sip.
Uncle Liu came over and said softly, "Grandpa! There is a call for you. It's from Yanting."
Grandpa Ji nodded, stood up, walked to the phone and picked up the phone.
"Dad! I have found them. After Yaoyao finishes the college entrance examination, I will take them back to Beijing. I hope you can accept them and stop stopping us from being together. I will only marry Xuemei in this life, and I will never be separated from them again. If anyone dares to harm them, don't blame me for being rude, including you." Ji Yanting's tone was firm and determined. This was his last warning to his father.
Old Master Ji sighed deeply, "I will not care about your affairs in the future."
He knew that his insistence might be wrong. He should not interfere too much in his son's life, let alone try to influence his decision. Now that his son has found the mother and daughter, he will not care anymore. Anyway, he will not live for a few more years.
At first, he firmly opposed his son to bring the mother and daughter back because he felt that his son should go to the army and make greater contributions to the country and the people. After all, his son was a rare military talent with outstanding abilities and talents. He should display his talents on the battlefield instead of being entangled by family matters.
Later, his son really lived up to his expectations.
So he hoped that his son could be better, go further, and have a wife who could help him, instead of a dodder like Ling Xuemei, so he re-arranged a marriage for his son, that is, Zhu Yuhua of the Zhu family.
When his son learned the news, he was furious, and then he heard that his son was seriously injured and unconscious. He regretted it at that time.
But he had already made an engagement with the Zhu family. The Zhu family and the Ji family were equally powerful. If he rashly proposed to cancel the engagement, the Zhu family would definitely make a big fuss about it. So he had been waiting for the Zhu family to propose to cancel the engagement.
Unexpectedly, the Zhu family not only did not propose to cancel the engagement, but Zhu Yuhua also came to take care of Yan Ting from time to time. Zhu Yuhua also told him that she would be Yan Ting's person in this life and Yan Ting's ghost in death.
He was deeply moved, so the engagement has continued to this day.
As for the mother and daughter, he asked them to move away from the original village. First, he didn't want his son to find them, and secondly, he didn't want the Zhu family to know about their existence. He knew the temper of the Zhu family. They couldn't tolerate any sand in their eyes. Once they knew the existence of the mother and daughter, the mother and daughter might be worried about their lives.
He didn't like the mother and daughter, but the child's body was after all the blood of their Ji family, and he didn't want anything to happen to her.
Now Yan Ting has reunited with the mother and daughter, and with his ability to protect them, he doesn't have to worry about the Zhu family attacking them.
He sighed deeply. It's time to cancel the engagement between the Ji family and the Zhu family.
"Old Liu, go prepare the gifts, and we'll go to the Zhu family." Since it was his mistake, he should solve it.
When Master Zhu heard that Master Ji was coming, the smile on his face was like a blooming flower. He immediately went out to greet him with a smile and said warmly: "Brother Ji, why did you think of coming to my place today? Welcome! Welcome! Please come in!"
Although Ji Yanting was injured, the Ji family did not decline because of this. Instead, it became prosperous thanks to Ji Yanting's three adopted sons.
Ji Yanting's three adopted sons were all outstanding and talented. Under their leadership, the Ji family was also becoming more and more prosperous. If he had known that they were so powerful, he should have let his son adopt the three children.
"I'm here for the engagement of Yan Ting and Yu Hua."
"I know, Yan Ting's leg has healed, and I was thinking of talking to you about their marriage in two days. The two children are not young anymore, it's time to get married." Fortunately, when Ji Yan Ting was injured and unconscious, he insisted on not breaking off the engagement.
Old Master Ji smiled awkwardly, "Actually, I'm here to break off the engagement with the Zhu family. This is the Ji family's fault. You can put forward any conditions you have."
Old Master Zhu slammed the table and glared at Old Master Ji, his eyes seemed to be spitting fire.
He pointed at Old Master Ji, trembling, with uncontrollable anger in his voice: "What did you say? You want to cancel the engagement? Our Yuhua has waited for Ji Yanting for so many years, and now you tell me that you want to cancel the engagement?"
Old Master Ji sighed helplessly, his face full of apology and helplessness.
He looked at Old Master Zhu, with a trace of guilt in his eyes, "Old Zhu, calm down first, I know this is our Ji family's fault, but a forced melon is not sweet, so many years, Yanting and Yuhua have not been together, and they will not be happy if they are forced to be together. I know Yuhua has waited for Yanting for many years, and I will compensate Yuhua."
"No! I don't agree to cancel the engagement. If the engagement is cancelled, how will others look at our Yuhua?" Old Master Zhu's voice was like a roaring lion.
Old Master Ji sighed helplessly, his heart was filled with guilt and helplessness. He knew that he was sorry for the Zhu family and Yuhua.
He stood up and bowed deeply to Old Master Zhu: "Old Zhu, I am sorry for this matter. If the Zhu family needs any help in the future, just ask."
Old Master Zhu narrowed his eyes slightly and bowed his head in thought. He had known for a long time that Ji Yanting was married when he went to the countryside, and that he had a daughter. He had sent people to kill the mother and daughter before, but Old Master Ji protected them too well, and his people could not find them at all, so they escaped.
"Old Ji, I can't promise you this yet. I need to discuss it with them." said Old Master Zhu. He was secretly thinking that this matter involved the interests of the family, and he needed to handle it carefully to get the most benefit from it.
