Chapter 70 Documents
After sending Master Ji away, Master Zhu called his children and told them that Master Ji had come to cancel the engagement.
"What do you think?" Master Zhu picked up the teacup, took a sip, and his eyes fell on his children.
When Zhu Yuhua heard what Master Zhu said, her face changed immediately, "Dad! I don't agree to cancel the engagement." She had finally waited for Ji Yanting's leg to recover, how could she give up now.
"Yuhua, Dad knows that you like Ji Yanting, but you have been waiting for so many years, and Ji Yanting has not married you. If he liked you, he would have married you a long time ago. Why did he delay until now? The engagement should be cancelled." Master Zhu's voice was full of helplessness, and he didn't want to cancel the engagement. But Ji Yanting has now found the mother and daughter, how could he marry his daughter again.
"But I like Yan Ting, I don't want to give up like this." Zhu Yuhua clenched her fist unwillingly. She had waited for Ji Yan Ting for so many years. From a young girl, she became an old girl now. She had wasted more than ten years of her youth on Ji Yan Ting. How could she give up just like that? Who would be responsible for her youth? Who would marry her at her age?
Old Master Zhu looked at Zhu Yuhua distressedly, "Yuhua, Dad knows that you like Ji Yan Ting, but a forced marriage is not sweet. This matter has been decided." His voice was a little stern and unquestionable.
"Dad!" Zhu Yuhua looked at Old Master Zhu pleadingly.
"Okay." Old Master Zhu waved his hand to interrupt Zhu Yuhua and looked at his son, "Zhengtao, what do you think?"
Zhu Zhengtao looked at Old Master Zhu, "Since the Ji family wants to cancel the engagement, then we will agree to them, but we will also make the Ji family bleed heavily this time."
"Tell me." "
Isn't Feng Ling competing with Ji Yuanming for the position of team leader? We will let the Ji family give up this competition and let the Ji family compensate Yuhua for the loss of youth. I heard that the Ji family has an heirloom jade, so let them give us the heirloom jade as compensation. And Jiaojiao, she has always liked Ji Yuanbo, we can use this opportunity to propose another marriage with the Ji family." Zhu Zhengtao expressed his thoughts. He naturally has to consider his son's future. Although his son is excellent, he has to admit that he is still a little behind Ji Yuanming.
There is also the piece of jade handed down from the Ji family. It is said that Qin Shihuang relied on it to unify the world. It is said that the piece of jade handed down from time to time contains the universe. Regardless of whether this rumor was true or false, he wanted to get the piece of heirloom jade.
As for his daughter's marriage, although he preferred Lu Qingyun from the Lu family, he heard that Lu Qingyun was allergic to women and would break out in red rashes whenever he was near a woman, so he had to settle for the next best thing. Anyway, the three brothers of the Ji family are considered outstanding among this generation of young people.
Mr. Zhu nodded in agreement, "Then I'll do as you say."
"Thank you, Dad!" Zhu Zhengtao thanked him happily.
Zhu Yuhua lowered her head, tears falling from her eyes like pearls with broken strings. She knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, and her own happiness meant nothing in the face of the family's interests. In the final analysis, she was just a tool to consolidate the family's interests, and she had no choice or freedom of her own.
After returning to the Ji family, Master Ji locked himself in the room. He now regretted it very much, regretting that he should not have been obsessed and made an engagement with the Zhu family. Now that he took the initiative to propose a breakup, he could guess how harsh the Zhu family would offer.
"Knock knock knock!" There was a knock on the door.
Then, Ji Yuanming's voice came from outside the door, "Grandpa! I'm back." "Come in." Master Ji sighed. Although Yuanming is not his biological grandson, his excellence is obvious to all.
The door opened and Ji Yuanming strode in.
"Grandpa!"
"Sit down." Grandpa Ji pointed to the chair beside him.
Ji Yuanming nodded, walked to the chair and sat down, and handed a file bag in his hand to Grandpa Ji, "Grandpa! This is what my father asked me to give to you."
Grandpa Ji took the file bag, opened it puzzledly, and saw the contents inside, his face changed instantly.
"Dad asked you to go to the Zhu family to cancel the engagement. If the Zhu family puts forward unreasonable conditions, you can exchange this document. He is also preparing a grand wedding for Aunt Ling. I hope you will not stop him."
Grandpa Ji put the document back into the file bag, "Okay, I understand." It seems that he underestimated his son. It turns out that he is more complicated than he thought. It is true that the waves behind push the waves in front, and there are always higher mountains than the other mountains. He can also rest assured.
"Grandpa! I will go back to the army first." Ji Yuanming had completed his task. He stood up and walked out of the room.
Soon, Grandpa Ji received a call from Grandpa Zhu. When he heard the conditions proposed by Grandpa Zhu, Grandpa Ji's face was so dark that water could almost drip out. He had known that the Zhu family would ask for a lot of money, but he did not expect that the conditions they proposed were more excessive than he thought.
"Old Zhu, we have been friends for decades after all, you can't go too far."
"Old Ji, if you don't agree, then the engagement will continue." Old Master Zhu was calm, he knew that Old Master Ji would definitely agree.
Old Master Ji took a deep breath and suppressed his anger, "I have a document here, you might as well take a look before deciding." Fortunately, his son was well prepared, otherwise he would have been controlled by the Zhu family.
Old Master Zhu put down the phone with a serious expression.
"Dad, what's wrong?" Seeing that Old Master Zhu looked wrong, Zhu Zhengtao asked.
Old Master Zhu shook his head and stood up, "You accompany me to the Ji family." He wanted to see what handle the old man of the Ji family had on the Zhu family.
When Grandpa Ji heard that Grandpa Zhu was coming, he immediately greeted him with a smile, "Old Zhu is here, welcome, welcome, please come in."
Grandpa Zhu followed Grandpa Ji to the living room with an ugly face.
"Old Ji, we are clear-sighted people and don't speak in secret, just take out the things."
Grandpa Ji took out the documents with a smile and handed them to Uncle Liu beside him.
Uncle Liu took the documents respectfully, and then handed them to Grandpa Zhu carefully.
Grandpa Zhu took the documents, slowly opened them, and read them carefully.
The more he looked at them, the uglier his face became. Every line of this document was like a sharp knife, cutting his heart.
He never thought that under his nose, the descendants of their Zhu family actually did so many unspeakable things. He felt that his dignity and the reputation of his family had been trampled upon and tarnished.
"Dad, can you show me this?" Zhu Zhengtao had a bad feeling in his heart.
Old Master Zhu slammed the document into Zhu Zhengtao's face, "This is all your fault." He stood up angrily and walked outside.
Zhu Zhengtao quickly looked at the document, glared at Master Ji with resentment, and chased after Master Zhu. The Ji family was really cruel, and they even kept such a trick.
