Chapter 540: Losing 800 for 1,000
This time it was Qin Lang's turn to feel short of breath and he turned back instantly.
The Qin family has a special family etiquette, and will only ask for help from elders or capable people in other families when they encounter a situation that they really cannot solve.
There is no response.
This is the fundamental reason why the Qin family is so prosperous and flourishing, and although scattered all over the place, it is extremely vital.
No matter what, if you really encounter a difficult situation, there are capable family members to cover you.
At that time, Qin Jian was young but of high seniority, and he was gifted and had learned many things by himself. In the Qin family, he had always been a legendary figure.
When Qin Lang's grandfather was in trouble, it can be said that Qin Jian was both a man of high seniority and a capable person at that time.
"Your grandfather must have been thinking about countless candidates in his mind before he finally came to me."
Qin Jian still remembers what Grandpa Qin Lang said when he took him to sit in a private room.
——My uncle has a tight schedule and I shouldn’t have come to disturb him. But I couldn’t find a suitable person, so I asked Changshan. I’m very sorry to come and disturb him.
Qin Jian said: "When he came, he brought several birthdays and asked me to help him choose a suitable one, but I refused."
After he finished speaking, everyone looked at him and then at Qin Lang.
Qin Lang thought for a moment and asked, "Did you pick it for me?"
Qin Jian shook his head. "It's not yours, it's yours."
"What?" Qin Lang and Qin Zhongliang were both stunned when they heard this!
Comrade Lao Qin was especially impressed. When he heard these words from Qin Jian's mouth, he jumped up from his chair instantly, and his hands trembled uncontrollably.
"Little Master Qin, what did you mean by that?"
Qin Zhongliang felt a chill on his spine, and his head was buzzing at this moment.
An unfilial thought flashed through his mind. No wonder the old man never mentioned this to him until his death!
Don't you want to bring this matter back to the bottom completely by yourself?
Qin Zhongliang's face looked a little off, and Qin Lang noticed it in time. He immediately stood up and hugged Old Qin tightly, saying, "Young Master hasn't finished speaking yet, Dad, it's okay!"
After Qin Zhongliang calmed down, Qin Lang sat down with him again.
"Master, please continue."
Qin Jian glanced at Qin Zhongliang and said calmly, "You'll understand later."
Qin Zhongliang didn't say anything, but Qin Jian could tell from his expression.
When everyone was silent, Tu Huan heard this, thought for a moment, and asked softly, "Auntie was pregnant with twins at the time?"
Qin Jian turned to look at her and shook his head again.
Huh?
Now, everyone is confused again.
"There were some issues with the dates that Grandpa Qin Lang took. So at first, when I heard that he wanted me to help him choose a date for his grandson, I refused without even thinking or asking."
"Why?"
Suddenly a voice was heard and everyone looked at the person who spoke.
No one expected that these three words came out of Xie Huailuo's mouth.
Before Qin Jian could answer this question, Li Yuanxiao, who was standing beside him, explained it to Xie Huailuo on his behalf.
Li Yuanxiao asked, "Does Mr. Xie have a child born on a chosen date?"
"have."
When Xie Huailu answered this question, he was decisive and did not shy away from the question.
In Haicheng, wherever you look, you can see that many families are planning for their descendants in this way. From the day they are born, they have already spent huge amounts of money just to borrow a bit of good luck from fate.
This kind of thing is not something obscure.
Therefore, Xie Huailou naturally believed that for a family as large as the Qin family, if a talented person like Qin Jian emerged in the family, it would be understandable to choose a good birthday for the sake of future generations.
So, he really wanted to know why Qin Jian refused at that time.
"Don't you say that you have to respond to the etiquette when meeting a clan member?"
Xie Huailou, who also comes from a large family, has a deeper understanding of the rules that are regarded as the "bottom line" in the family than others.
Someone in the Xie family also touched that line, so until now, there have been constant small troubles, making the people in charge exhausted to deal with them.
He didn't quite understand what the reason was.
That's why he was curious why Qin Jian remained unmoved after seeing the "clan rules".
Li Yuanxiao said, "Mr. Xie doesn't understand. A person's destiny is predetermined, almost beyond human control. Some things can be done, but there's a price to pay for doing them. And this price is equal to, or even greater, for different people. Neither the Qin family's grandfather nor the uncle-in-law at the time could arbitrarily change another person's destiny, let alone a child of the Qin family."
"What's the price?" Xie Huailou said, "Losing eight hundred for a thousand. If it's necessary, I personally think it's worth taking the risk. From Grandpa Qin Lang's perspective at the time, there was no way out, so..."
Xie Huailuo's attitude is self-evident.
Li Yuanxiao wanted to explain to this stubborn modern man what the balance of nature meant, and that the affairs of nature were beyond human control.
Qin Jian stopped him and said, "Let me tell you."
My junior apprentice disciple just came down from the mountain and is not very familiar with the ways of the world.
Xie Huailuo's thoughts represent another perspective on the world.
"Mr. Xie, I don't care about people's life and death."
In one sentence, that was Qin Jian's explanation, concise and to the point. Xie Huailuo pondered for a while after hearing it, then nodded, and he understood Qin Jian's attitude at that time.
Qin Jian said that it took him more than 20 years to finally figure out something that he had been unable to understand for many years, which was a sentence that Qin Lang's grandfather said when he left.
"If one day in the future, Zhongliang grows up and brings someone to you for help, please help him once."
Qin Jian said to Qin Lang, "I think your grandfather must have anticipated this day, but I never guessed in all these years that your grandfather would be so sure that one day you would bring someone to find me when you grow up."
After saying that, he glanced at Xie Huailou who was sitting next to him.
"When you came here this morning, I mistook you for Mr. Xie Huailou."
"But now it seems." He glanced at Tu Huan, and the meaning of his words was clear at a glance.
It was also because of Tu Huan's unfinished hexagram that he was able to return to the past and get a glimpse of the "cause" of that time.
"The reason is that Grandpa Qin Lang asked me to choose a date that day." Qin Jian said.
He looked at Xie Huailou and Qin Zhongliang and explained at the same time, "Normally, I don't watch the coming and going of life. This matter is extremely causal. I was still young and inexperienced, and I felt powerless, so I refused without a second thought. However, what Qin Lang's grandfather said later changed my mind."
"At that time, after he gave me a few days, he said..."
——"Uncle, you have worked hard. Please help me these past few days to see how to avoid letting my son come out."
Qin Jian remembered that he was stunned at that time.
Then, Grandpa Qin Lang said, "The Qin Family Temple is small and can only house one Buddha."
