Chapter 344: The daughter of the Shen family is held in the palm of your hand
The next morning, the Qin family's invitation arrived as expected.
The invitation was not sent to the Army District compound where He Xu took office, but instead to the He family.
He Xu knew that Mr. Qin must not know about the invitation to the wedding.
When Mr. He saw the invitation, he smiled: "The younger generation of the Qin family has been pampered for so long that they are unwilling to accept reality."
Old Master Qin was seriously ill, so Qin Yin's marriage was held just to bring good luck.
The wedding was very low-key and only some people with good political connections were invited to attend.
There are quite a lot of young people of the same age, but He Xu has always been despised by Qin Yue, and the two families are political enemies. Now that the Qin family has invited He Xu and Shen Tang to participate, it is obvious to everyone.
He Xu didn't care what the other party was planning. He raised his lips and smiled: "Grandpa, where is the compensation you agreed on before?"
When Mr. He's face fell, he knew that he wouldn't come to see his old man for no reason.
He pulled a passbook out of the cabinet and threw it at him: "I opened it yesterday using Xiao Atang's account. I put all my life savings in it. The password is Xiao Atang's birthday."
"What is this to you? You gave all the compensation to my son, but there is nothing for my wife?"
He Xu was dissatisfied that the old man valued the little bastard so much. His wife had suffered but the old man didn't seem to remember it at all. He was unhappy to receive the passbook.
Old Master He snorted, "Every daughter's family has her children and husband as their priority. There's 10,000 yuan above, plus I'll leave all those antiques to you after I die, so that's good enough, right?"
"You are wrong. The senior leaders have said that women hold up half the sky. Raising children is not a problem of scarcity but inequality. You are really responsible for the He family's current situation."
He Xu finished speaking and sighed again: "Fortunately, I only had one child. If I had more, and they turned out to be like you in the future, I would regret it to death."
Although the sister-in-law is hateful, she is also pitiful.
It was only after this incident that he truly realized that the old feudal idea of favoring boys over girls was no less prevalent than that of the uneducated people.
Yes, my grandfather has been a young master since the Republic of China era. He was raised by others and later went to the battlefield to defend the country. His heart was full of protecting the motherland and building achievements. Even if he never took concubines, in their eyes, women were just people who continued the family line.
Like my aunt, even if she has a promising future, her own value will be denied by the phrase "other people's".
He Xu recalled that when Chen Tang was pregnant, she said she hoped to have a boy.
At that time, he thought boys and girls were the same, but now think about it, if Chen Tang gave birth to a girl, I am afraid that everyone would have urged her to have a second child by now.
Old Master He had always been dissatisfied with the fact that he and Shen Tang only had one child. Now, hearing He Xu still say so arrogantly that they only had one child, he was so angry that he fumed.
"Shut up! If it weren't for Atang, I would have hit you with a stick. You, a junior, want to blame me, your elder?"
He Xu pulled the corner of his mouth: "I dare not."
"I think you're very brave!"
Grandpa He thinks his grandson is good, but he is too disobedient.
He originally wanted to find a docile woman for He Xu. He didn't require a good family background, just a clean one. It would be best if she was well-educated and could help He Xu communicate with other ladies.
Who would have thought that this wolf cub would actually fall in love with a little white rabbit.
Even eating the rabbit next door!
Unfortunately, this rabbit has a rather prominent background, so even if he has any opinions, it is difficult for him to express them.
Otherwise, the tiger in the rabbit's family would curse at him if he caught him.
No face at all.
Mr. He got angry just thinking about it.
Many years of comradeship.
Old man Shen has always respected him. Ever since he married his daughter, he has never been able to suppress his hot temper. Let alone respect, it's good enough that he doesn't come to his house to curse at him.
What can he do?
At least she gave birth to a boy.
As long as the incense is burning, it's fine.
He didn't have the nerve to induce labor in front of other people's elders.
When He Xu knew that Mr. He wanted to leave the antique to him, his eyes suddenly narrowed with a smile.
"Then I'll leave first. Grandpa, please tell my aunt that I can blame the Guo family for this incident, but if there is a next time, I don't mind exposing her handles."
With the old man around, he can't deal with his young sister-in-law, but it doesn't matter, he is still young and can wait!
Mr. He was so angry that he wanted to hit him with his cane, but He Xu escaped.
Not long after He Xu was transferred back, a letter reporting Guo Changming appeared on the desk of his leader who had been promoted.
Even though Mr. He has retired, he is still a founding general. Guo Changming relies on his father's power to deal with his daughter-in-law from the He family. How could Mr. He let him go easily?
When Guo Changming was taken away, he was still confused and shouted that he wanted to call his father.
As early as when He Tingfeng was dealt with, Guo Jizu knew that their tails were not hidden well.
He was hoping for luck.
He has been the commander of the military region for a long time. Although he is a little afraid of the two old men, their Guo family has been valued these days, and several brothers and sisters have been promoted. He also feels that Mr. He also loved Changming and his children before, so he thinks that the old man should not do anything to Changming.
After all, Changming did this according to He Tingfeng's advice.
As for the Shen family, the Guo family also came to apologize.
But the Shen family did not accept it and drove them out.
Upon receiving the news that Guo Changming was in trouble, Guo Jizu went to visit the He family that same day.
It's not that he was unwilling to visit the Shen family. The Shen family was at its peak, which made the He family look like a bygone era. Guo Jizu was more sincere towards the Shen family than the He family.
But Mr. Shen didn't want to see him.
He could only go to Mr. He to plead for mercy first.
Mr. He still met him, mainly to give face to He Tingfeng.
Guo Jizu didn't dare to have any plans in front of the old general.
He apologized with a wry smile, explaining, "Grandpa, your granddaughter-in-law's accident really has nothing to do with Changming."
"You also know that Changming has no idea about his own life experience and has always treated Tingfeng as his own biological mother. He only attacked your grandson and granddaughter-in-law because he wanted to help his mother, which was what he wanted to do."
"When I learned about this, I wanted to persuade him, but it was too late. It's not appropriate for you to vent your anger on Changming like this."
Mr. He was wearing a string of Buddhist beads in his hand. The beads were translucent and plump, exuding the scent of sandalwood. They were the old man’s favorite thing recently.
"Su Nancheng is your son, right?"
Guo Jizu smiled awkwardly: "Old man, although Su Nancheng is my illegitimate child, I have never let Tingfeng down except for this matter."
The couple each had their own way of doing things, and He Tingfeng had no right to blame him for this.
If she were still fertile, she would probably have more illegitimate children than he does.
Old Master He half-closed his eyes and leaned back on the sofa, the aura of a ferocious beast rushing towards him, and a slight raise of his eagle-like sharp eyes made Guo Jizu's back slightly wet.
"I can't make the decision on this matter. I can't explain to the Shen family alone, Su Nancheng. Besides, you must have used a lot of tricks in this matter."
