Chapter 788: Wool stares at the same circle
Seeing me speaking out against He Qingrong, He Zhiming immediately said with displeasure, "Miss Xia, this is a matter between the Xiao and He families, please don't interrupt our conversation.
Shiqiu has been the son-in-law of my He family for eighteen years. How can this family relationship be severed by mere blood ties? "
He Qingrong is really his own daughter, but their arguments are exactly the same, which is really infuriating!
I couldn't help but continue to sarcastically say, "You mean Qiu has been cuckolded by his cousin for eighteen years, so he should have developed feelings for it and should continue to wear it?"
Xiao Shiqiu chuckled, while He Zhiming's face turned pale with anger. "Shiqiu, are you just letting this ignorant little girl talk nonsense?"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Shiqiu, as if waiting for Xiao Shiqiu to say that I was ignorant.
Xiao Shiqiu, however, was neither angry nor annoyed. He gently held my hand and said lovingly, "You are so naughty. This metaphor is not very nice, but it is quite appropriate."
Then he looked up at He Zhiming and said seriously, "I think what my fiancée said makes a lot of sense. Just a reminder, she's not some little girl, she's my fiancée, the future Mrs. Xiao."
You are my elder, and I respect you, but I hope you can also respect my fiancée."
Xiao Shiqiu looked directly at He Zhiming and said slowly, "She is my family. Of course she has the right to express her own opinions."
He Zhiming was shocked by his words. He seemed to not know him. He opened his mouth for a long time before saying, "She is not your wife yet. You are just engaged!"
Although Xiao Shiqiu's face was cold, he still said politely: "If you must dwell on this, then why don't we just stop talking about it today? Mengmeng and I will go get the certificate first, and then come back to continue the discussion."
He was about to get up. He Qingrong couldn't stand it any longer, so she hurried downstairs and said in a trembling voice, "Shiqiu, you're actually protecting her to this extent? I've been married to you for eighteen years. Even if I haven't done anything for you, I've definitely worked hard..."
This line is very familiar, it feels like a common line in a costume drama. Before she finished speaking, I looked at her with wide eyes and asked sincerely: "Is being Mrs. Xiao still a meritorious and hard work? What do you have to do?"
He Qingrong choked, unable to continue the heartbreak. Seeing that the conversation was about to break down, He Zhiming quickly stepped out to smooth things over, "Shiqiu, I understand how you feel. People are, after all, emotional animals. You've raised Tiantian for eighteen years and you truly loved her.
I can understand why you said that the shares they hold should be taken back. Well, I just hope that their lives won't be too difficult in the future.
Tiantian has suffered so much this time. I've thought about it. The boy she found is not good enough. His family is too poor. She was originally pregnant and had no choice. Now the child is gone. I hope she can find someone who can make her happy. "
Hearing this, Xiao Shiqiu agreed, which was rare, and sat down again, "I understand. Tiantian didn't do anything wrong in the matter of not being a member of the Xiao family. If I have to say it was wrong, it was that she was born into the wrong family, so I don't blame her.
If she wants to break up with Liang Zi, I think that's fine. She should focus on her studies now and talk about marriage after graduation."
He Zhiming was obviously relieved when he saw Xiao Shiqiu sitting down again.
He hesitated for a moment, motioned for He Qingrong to sit down as well, then thought for a moment before saying, "Shiqiu, what I mean is that after Tiantian recovers, we should find her a suitable partner and get them engaged first. Then, she won't be easily deceived by those scheming boys and can focus on her studies."
I have used this trick on my daughter, and now it's my granddaughter's turn. She has finally made progress and knows that she cannot make substitutions while dribbling the ball.
"Uncle He, what's your purpose in telling me this? Do you want me to help you find it or..."
Xiao Shiqiu seemed a little confused about what He Zhiming meant. I also didn't quite understand why the old man said this to my son Xiao. Was he still planning to ask him to pay for the dowry?
The old fox, probably seeing that Xiao Shiqiu wasn't too opposed to his idea, continued with a smile, "Tiantian has called you dad for eighteen years, so I think I should ask for your opinion. If you think my idea is okay, I do have a boy in mind who would be a perfect match for Tiantian. We're of the same age, come from a similar family background, and we've known each other since childhood."
Xiao Shiqiu subconsciously leaned forward and asked in a deep voice, "I wonder whose child you are talking about?"
"Haha, there aren't many boys of Tiantian's age in the circle," He Zhiming said with a smile, "The one I mentioned is the most suitable in terms of age."
I don't know how many boys of the right age there are in their circle, but I noticed that Xiao Shiqiu's face darkened. "Are you talking about my nephew?"
Zhang Youming? Are they trying to pair up these two cousins who have been together for over a decade?
Zhang Youming is indeed very outstanding, but I guess he doesn't think highly of Xiao...Yuan Tiantian.
He Zhiming seemed not to notice Xiao Shiqiu's sour face. He rubbed his hands with a smile and said to himself, "Shiqiu, you also thought of Xiao Ming first. It shows that you also think they are the most suitable, right?
Originally, I thought Xiao Ming was good, but unfortunately, they were cousins before. Now, since Tiantian has no blood relationship with the Xiao family, this problem does not exist. Why don’t you go and meet your sister…”
Oh my god! Old man He is such a piece of shit. He just finished causing trouble for his brother's family and now he starts causing trouble for his sister's family. Why is he trying to get the wool from the same circle?
Xiao Shiqiu sneered and stood up suddenly. Seeing him stand up, I quickly stood up as well, wondering in my heart whether he was going to quarrel or leave.
"Uncle He, you're overthinking it!" Xiao Shiqiu spoke with suppressed anger, his face already terribly gloomy, "Neither my sister nor Xiao Ming himself would agree to this.
As for me, it is even more impossible for me to help pull this string, so you should find another high-ranking family."
He Zhiming's face froze, but he forced a smile and said, "Shiqiu, don't be so quick to object. You heard me say that our two children grew up together..."
Xiao Shiqiu interrupted him directly, "Don't say anything, I will never agree to this, and my sister is even less likely to agree.
It seems there's no need to continue discussing this today. By the way, He Qingrong, my lawyer will contact you to handle the equity return. I hope you can cooperate."
He pulled me out with an angry look on his face. I heard He Zhiming's anxious voice from behind: "Shiqiu, don't be anxious..."
Then came He Qingrong's sharp voice: "That was what the Xiao family promised me back then. As long as I marry you and have children for ten years, they'll give it to me. Why can you take it back just like that?"
Xiao Shiqiu paused, but said nothing, not even turning his head. I couldn't help but speak for him again, and turned around and made a face: "You are a marriage fraud~"
