The old man explained: "In terms of seniority, there are not many people who can take this position, and several have been removed from the position."
"The remaining few have already entered a period of rapid decline, and the possibility of rising again is not great."
"So the final candidate is either your father or Yu Changqing."
After hearing what the old man said, Jiang Si was stunned.
As they were talking, Huo Li came back.
Seeing that she didn't look well, Mr. Huo's expression also turned ugly.
"What did they say to make you so angry?"
"Take a look for yourself." Huo Li placed the two invitations in his hand on the table.
Mr. Huo was not surprised and picked it up and looked through it for a while.
"Their family...are they planning another marriage?"
Huo Li nodded. If it was just a simple marriage, she wouldn’t think there was anything wrong with it.
After all, the husbands that the Yu family had chosen for their daughters were all wealthy and powerful families, and they were all military personnel.
What surprised Huo Qi was that the marriage partner that the Yu family chose this time was actually the Ling family in Jing City!
"Ling family?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present stopped what they were doing.
Seeing this, Jiang Si couldn't help but wonder, "Is this Ling family very powerful?"
Huo Qi had an expression that was hard to describe. The Ling family was not only powerful, but the key was that they were notorious in Beijing.
The old one is not serious and relies on his honors.
After he came to power, he abandoned his wife, claiming that arranged marriages were shameful and that there was no emotional basis for them.
Later, he married a young wife who was more than 20 years younger than him.
Otherwise, why do they say that if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beams will be crooked? This old man had several sons after his improper marriage.
They all look decent, but they don't do their job properly.
Especially their eldest son Ling Yunfei, if Huo Li remembered correctly.
In just six short months, this person has already been married four times, right?
"We might get married soon."
Ah, marriage!!!
Grandma Huo nodded. "When we proposed yesterday, I heard my elder sister mention it to me. The Ling family came to her house some time ago and wanted her to act as a matchmaker."
"I don't know which girl is so unlucky that she has taken a fancy to her."
Grandma Huo shook her head. Since it was none of her family's business, she didn't ask.
Thinking about the strange look on Huo Qi's face just now, Grandma Huo comforted him.
"The military department is not a one-man show for the Ling family. It's hard to say who will be promoted to this position."
"It wouldn't be worth it if you got sick from this."
"Mom, that's not what I'm worried about."
"The Yu family sent two invitations this time, one for us and one for the third brother."
Huo Li said: "Just now outside, Zhang Yaqin kept apologizing in front of everyone, and her attitude was very humble. She implied that if we didn't go, it would mean that we were unwilling to forgive them..."
If the opponent fights hard, Huo Li will not be afraid of anything.
But this time, Zhang Yaqin chose to go out with her brain.
Huo's father was in a high position and many people were watching him. When faced with such a situation, Huo Li really had no way of confronting them head-on.
After all, when the fourth child got married, the Yu couple were already married and the wedding gifts were also given.
Now that the Yu family is going to marry off their daughter, if they don't express their opinion, there will be trouble again later.
After thinking for a while, Huo Qi said, "On the day of their wedding banquet, Lao Huo and I went to pay the gift money and then came back."
"Third brother, you don't have to go."
Anyway, the third brother is getting married, and they didn't accept any gifts from the Yu family. If the third brother and his wife don't go, the other party can't say anything.
Moreover, Huo Qi always felt that they had no good intention in inviting the third brother and his wife to the banquet.
Anyway, she believes in this thing very much. Since it doesn’t feel right, then she won’t go!
Jiang Si nodded, "Well, we didn't plan to go there in the past."
"Eat quickly, the porridge is getting cold."
Huo Tingzhou reminded him, "It's getting late. I'll take you to the Artists Association after dinner."
Jiang Si saw that it was already past seven forty, so she quickly drank the bowl of porridge.
She ate one egg and stuffed the remaining one into Huo Tingzhou's mouth.
As soon as the meal was finished, Jiang Si said "wait for me for a moment", then rushed to the bathroom with the bag she brought with her.
