Chapter 24 Negotiation
Yuan hung up the phone gently, changed his clothes and left the bedroom.
Yuan Gungun was changing his shoes at the entrance: "Wake up, there's breakfast in the kitchen, eat it yourself, I'm going to work."
Yuan nodded gently: "Where's Mom?"
"Mom is back home."
Yuan Gungun looked up at Yuan Qingqing and said, "Are you going out too?"
"I need to go to Yuan's house for something."
Yuan Qingqing didn't want to go at first, but since Mrs. Meng was here, she decided to go and take a look.
"Do you need me to go with you?"
Yuan shook his head lightly.
Yuan Gungun didn't ask any more questions and picked up the bag: "There's money in the drawer, take it yourself."
"If you are bullied in the Yuan family, call me and my mother."
Yuan Qingqing looked at Yuan Gungun and said, "Sister, you should go southeast today. It will bring you good fortune."
Yuan Gungun chuckled and said, "Okay, I'll listen to my boss's sister."
Yuan Qingqing had breakfast, which included crystal dumplings, freshly ground soy milk, and a dish of cold vegetables.
This is a different kind of delicacy for her, who loves thousand-year-old blue and white porcelain.
After breakfast, Yuan Qingqing took a taxi to Yuan's house.
The servant who opened the door for the Yuan family saw her and habitually called out, "Good morning, Fourth Miss."
Mrs. Yuan happened to see this and glared at the servant.
Yuan Qingqing walked in and saw Meng Yusi sitting on the sofa, with Mrs. Meng sitting next to him.
Mrs. Meng poked Meng Yusi's arm with her finger and lectured him as if she was disappointed with him.
Yuan Man sat opposite their sofa. She did not have the reserved look of an ordinary girl returning to a wealthy family. She was very graceful and elegant.
When Yuan Man saw her, he waved happily and said hello: "Sister."
Mrs. Yuan was dissatisfied: "She is not your sister. The Yuan family only has four daughters. I don't want to have another daughter who is not related by blood."
Yuan Man curled her lips: "Mom, you are so cold. You raised me for more than ten years but didn't kiss me. How can you kiss me who you haven't raised for even a day?"
"Are you the kind of person who is very selfish and only loves yourself?"
Mrs. Yuan: ...
Yuan smiled and sat down: "She is not selfish, she only loves people like her."
Mrs. Yuan is just happy.
Then I listened to Yuan Qingqing's next words.
"She is a man-loving person. She loves her husband and her son, but she has no principles at all."
Mrs. Yuan said solemnly: "Yuan Qingqing!"
Yuan Qingqing ignored her and greeted Mrs. Meng, a noble lady wearing cheongsam sitting opposite.
"Aunt Meng."
Mrs. Meng was happy when she saw her: "Good girl, come and sit next to me."
She moved aside.
If Yuan Qingqing sat down, she would be sitting between Mrs. Meng and Meng Yusi.
Usually those who sit like this are the mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and husband.
Yuan Qing smiled and refused, then turned to look at Meng Yusi with wide eyes: "You were beaten?"
Meng Yusi took off his glasses and returned to his obedient neighbor's elder brother appearance, but his forehead and face were covered with bruises.
Meng Yusi pulled the corner of his mouth: "How dare you ask me?"
"Didn't everyone say that it was you who did it last night?"
Yuan frowned slightly: "Did I touch your face?"
Didn't she just hit him on the back of the neck?
"Haha, not just my face, but also my back, my waist, and my thighs!"
Last night, Meng Yusi woke up an hour after Yuan Qingqing left.
By then, the police had arrived.
When he woke up, his back, waist and thighs were all bruised and purple.
Meng Yusi thought he was beaten up, but after asking his fans, he found out that Yuan Qingqing grabbed his ankle with one hand and dragged him in front of the camera.
Let countless netizens watch him.
It was by the lake and there was grass, but there were stones on the grass, and his injuries were caused by knocking against stones.
Mrs. Yuan's face changed: "Yuan Qingqing, you have no shame!"
"That's Manman's fiancé. What's the difference between you and a mistress?"
Yuan Man: "Mom, they are childhood sweethearts and they love each other. How can you say that about my sister? Besides, he is not my fiancé."
Mrs. Meng: "Mrs. Yuan, please be careful with your words. Qingqing has been my daughter-in-law since I was a child."
Meng Yusi: "You should be more pure-minded. Yuan Qingqing and I are innocent. I treat her as my sister...hiss."
Mrs. Meng squeezed Meng Yusi's arm hard.
Yuan Qingqing hadn't said anything yet, but the three people's reactions were getting louder and louder.
No one stood on Mrs. Yuan's side, which made her confused.
Mrs. Yuan stared at Yuan Man: "That's your fiancé, Meng Yusi, the young master of the four major families in Huaicheng!"
"You are now the daughter of the Yuan family. This marriage is yours, and he is your fiancé."
Yuan Man let out a long sigh: "Is this what you call a wealthy marriage? A marriage that treats children as commodities?"
She laughed and said, "I refuse such a marriage."
"I am a human being. I cannot trade my marriage or my life."
Mrs. Yuan: "Yuan Man!"
Yuan Man looked at Mrs. Meng and said, "I am sitting here today because I want to make things clear."
"I will not be a sacrifice in a marriage alliance. Mrs. Meng, please think about this carefully."
"Don't turn your relatives into enemies."
Mrs. Yuan shouted angrily: "Yuan Man, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"You are the fourth daughter of the Yuan family, you should fulfill this responsibility!"
Yuan Man chuckled: "Marriage cannot be free. It doesn't matter if the fourth lady is not suitable. Anyway, I am not used to your extravagant life."
Mrs. Yuan was so angry that she wanted to hit Yuan Man.
Mrs. Meng spoke.
"Mrs. Yuan, I asked Qingqing to come with me today so that I can make things clear about the marriage."
"My favorite daughter-in-law has always been Qingqing."
"Even though Qingqing is not your daughter now, I still want her to be my daughter-in-law."
Yuan Qingqing, who was sitting quietly eating strawberries: ...
She just wanted to watch a play and eat strawberries.
Men are not as good as strawberries.
Mrs. Yuan smiled and said, "Mrs. Meng, although Manman has not been around since she was a child."
"But she is better than Qingqing, and she is also very graceful and generous, and she won't be embarrassed to be on the stage."
"He's a finance major at the first university, so he'll definitely be of great help in the future."
"Besides, if you cancel the marriage you personally arranged, it would be bad for the reputation of the Meng family and the company, right?"
The Yuan family is wealthy, but they are not even among the four major families in Huaicheng.
The Yuan family was also lucky. They became friends with Mrs. Meng by chance, and Mrs. Meng personally arranged the marriages for the two children.
Having missed out on a wealthy family like the Meng family, the Yuan family would never be able to find such a good marriage even if they worked hard for another hundred years.
Mrs. Meng sneered when she heard Mrs. Yuan's vaguely threatening words.
"Mrs. Yuan, I'm friends with you because Qingqing is cute and well-behaved."
"It's not because of your Yuan family that I decided to get married with Qingqing."
"Without Qingqing, I wouldn't bother to make friends with a nobody like you."
"I really gave you some color, but you opened a dyeing factory!"
"I wanted to talk it over with you, call off the marriage, and introduce you to some partners. We can still be friends when we meet in the future."
"That's not necessary now. I'll just inform you that the marriage between the Meng family and the Yuan family is over."
After Mrs. Meng finished speaking in a sharp voice, she turned around and smiled at Yuan Qingqing, her voice becoming gentler.
"Qingqing, take me to your house. I will go to your house to propose marriage now."
Mrs. Yuan's face changed. She didn't expect that Mrs. Meng, who was usually gentle and easy to talk to, could be so harsh.
She kindly reminded him, "Mrs. Meng, you should think it through."
"It's fine that Yuan Qingqing's family is very poor, but she is a disaster nemesis. Anyone who gets close to her will be in trouble."
"She had just returned to the Yuan family yesterday when they were driven out of the basement of Dijing Guanyun."
"Aren't you afraid that marrying such a calamity star will bring bad luck to you?"
