Today's purpose was to go to the Qin family to discuss arranging blind dates for Bai Yajing so she could get married as soon as possible. After all, once someone marries into a family in the provincial capital, their household registration will follow. This would give them a way to maneuver and room for maneuver.
But now he doesn't want to think about it anymore. The old man has already arranged his future and the rest of his life, so why should he do anything unnecessary?
This led to a complete break with the old man...
At this moment, he was filled with regret. How could he have been so blinded by greed and listened to the Xu mother and daughter's advice to join forces with the Qin family to scheme against his daughter?
Xu Shi and Bai Yazhu didn't dare to approach and speak, knowing that Bai Lao Er had already taken their words to heart. Whatever they said now would be wrong!
"Mom, what should we do? Are we just going to let it go like this?"
She didn't want to give up Bai Yajing's household registration! With that household registration, she could completely shed her status as a capitalist's daughter, and with that household registration, her future would be bright!
Xu Jiahui rubbed her temples, feeling a bit of a headache.
The Qin family has already chosen someone, and now they're saying they can't go on blind dates? They're afraid they'll offend people!
"Let's go to the Qin family first."
The mother and daughter did not return to the courtyard, but went out to the Qin family as usual.
After hanging up the phone, Qin's father sat in his chair for a long time without saying a word, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
When Qin Xuanyi met his father, he saw him looking at the phone with a displeased expression.
"Dad, what's wrong? Who upset you?"
Qin's father glanced at him and said, "Sit down. Also, tell your friend not to come today. He has something to do at home. We'll invite him to dinner another day."
Upon hearing this, Qin Xuanyi jumped to his feet. "Dad, what happened?"
Qin's father sighed deeply and recounted in detail what he had just heard about what happened at the Bai family's gate.
"Alright, she doesn't even acknowledge her biological father, Bai Lao Er, anymore. Why would she want a blind date he introduces? Besides... are you really determined to marry Bai Yazhu? She's really not as capable as her sister."
Bai Yajing's outburst today truly disrupted his plans. In the past, he would have simply assumed it was a coincidence.
But is this really a coincidence?
Qin Xuanyi wasn't stupid; he naturally sensed his father's dissatisfaction.
He tried to explain, but under Qin's father's piercing gaze, he couldn't bring himself to say anything against his conscience.
“Hey! I admit, I misjudged her. Ya Zhu is indeed much inferior to Bai Ya Jing… But, Dad, matters of the heart aren’t about who is better. Ya Zhu was there for me during my most difficult time. Over the years, our bond has deepened, and I don’t want to give her up.”
Bai Yazhu may not be as outstanding as Bai Yajing, but he doesn't need her to be outstanding; mutual affection is enough.
Qin's father looked at his son with a headache. If it weren't for Bai Yazhu's years of flattery and Bai Yajing's continued stay in the countryside, he wouldn't have agreed to their changing of the engagement.
But that was based on the assumption that Bai Yajing was incompetent. Now that he knows she's not incompetent at all, but rather quite outstanding, he, as her father, feels uneasy. Who doesn't want their family to prosper generation after generation? With such a matriarch in the next generation, why worry about the family's continuation?
