Chapter 328 Qin Shijie
At this time, the hall of the Xia family's old house was full of guests.
Although today is only the day when the Qin family came to offer employment, as a wealthy Yanjing family, Xia Wanli, the old man of the Xia family, still invited many relatives and friends, including many important people in the Yanjing business district.
The most dazzling person in the crowd was the young man.
This person is about 27 or years old. He is quite handsome, with a tall and straight figure and a good temperament. He is definitely an outstanding existence.
He is Qin Shijie.
Qin Wentian's grandson.
Although the Qin family is still very young, it has been very active in the Yanjing business district for a long time, and many elders present here all know this rising star.
Standing beside Qin Shijie was a middle-aged man. He smiled and said, "Shijie, the smooth progress of your engagement this time is all thanks to your Grandpa Xia's approval, why don't you hurry up and toast to your Grandpa Xia?" liquor."
"Yes, Second Uncle."
Hearing this, Qin Shijie raised his wine glass respectfully, smiled at the old man opposite and said, "Grandpa Xia, I have liked Yaoyao since I was a child, and it is thanks to your help that I can marry her as I wished. Grandpa Xia, Shijie is here to offer you a toast."
Sitting opposite is an old man in his 70s. This old man's hair has turned white and his face is full of wrinkles. He doesn't look very good, but he seems to be in a good mood today. He smiled and said: "Yao Yao But my most precious granddaughter will also inherit my Xia Group in the future, so you must not treat her badly."
"Of course."
Qin Shijie immediately expressed his opinion.
The two just had a drink together.
The crowd applauded.
At this time, Qin Shijie's second uncle Qin Ruhai smiled and said, "Mr. Xia, it's getting late, why haven't you seen that girl Yaoyao?"
According to the rules of Yanjing, the bride herself needs to be present, and then the engagement ceremony will be reached after the verbal agreement of both parties, and finally it will be regarded as the agreed date of marriage.
Although the two families are rich and powerful, they also respect the customs, so the elders of both sides thought that they should complete the job offer first, and then slowly build up their relationship.
Xia Wanli smiled slightly, and said, "Shan Yue, go and invite Yaoyao out."
"Yes, father."
Sitting next to Xia Wanli was a middle-aged man with a handsome face.
This person is Xia Yao's father Xia Shanyue.
He quickly stepped aside and got a secretary or something, and then the person hurried away.
Soon.
Xia Yao came out from inside.
Originally, Xia Yao's appearance was exceptionally outstanding, but today she was forced to dress up specially, so she is naturally bright and charming at this time.
Qin Shijie's eyes lit up immediately, and his heart became hot.
"grandfather."
Xia Yao came here, but her expression was very indifferent.
Xia Wanli nodded, and said with a smile, "Today is the day you send out your employment, and I haven't seen your Uncle Qin yet."
"Uncle Qin."
Although Xia Yao said that she was very angry with the agreement made between the elders of the two parties, after all, this matter was not initiated by Qin Ruhai, so she called out softly at that moment.
Qin Ruhai smiled and said, "Yaoyao, we will be a family from now on, so don't be so polite."
Xia Yao frowned, and then slowly said: "Thank you, Uncle Qin, for your kindness, but I really can't agree to this engagement."
"what?"
Qin Ruhai's expression changed.
Qin Shijie over there was also shocked.
Although Xia Wanli knew that Xia Yao had always opposed this marriage, he did not expect to say it directly here. He said in a deep voice, "Yaoyao, don't mess around. Shijie is the child I grew up with. Whether it is Both character and ability are quite good, and the two of you have a very deep relationship since childhood, if you can get married, it will be a very good thing for both of you."
Xia Yao said firmly: "Shijie, I'm sorry! Although our relationship is indeed very good, I don't feel that way towards you. I don't want you and me to live in pain in the future."
"Yaoyao!"
Xia Shanyue didn't expect his daughter to come out at this time, and immediately shouted in a deep voice.
The corners of Qin Shijie's mouth stiffened slightly, and he said: "Yaoyao, I know that things between us are indeed a little bit fast, but I have always been sincere to you. If you think it's too fast, then I might as well give you some more time." OK."
Xia Yao shook her head and said, "It's impossible."
Xia Shanyue immediately reprimanded: "Yaoyao, don't mess around there! Shijie specially came here today to deliver the job, how sincere is he with so many gifts, don't you know what he wants for you? If you don't want such a good child as Jie, who do you want to marry?" At the end of the speech, he really felt quite dissatisfied.
It's not that Xia Shanyue doesn't feel sorry for Xia Yao.
in contrast.
As his only daughter, Xia Shanyue has always loved Xia Yao very much, but from the bottom of his heart, he also agrees with his father's arrangement.
He really felt from the bottom of his heart that Qin Shijie was an extremely good young man, with unquestionable abilities and an extremely prominent family background, and he did not have the dandyism that those wealthy children developed. The most important thing was that he could see all these The other party has always had a deep affection for Yaoyao, isn't such a boy a good match?
So when Xia Wanli mentioned this matter earlier, Xia Shanyue directly agreed.
Even if Xia Yao objected to him as a father, he ignored it.
Xia Yao looked at her father who seemed to be doing her best, and couldn't help showing a moment of sadness. She said slowly, "I already have someone I like!"
"Bullshit!"
Xia Shanyue's face suddenly darkened.
"Yao, Yaoyao, you, what are you talking about?"
Qin Shijie on the opposite side trembled all over, feeling a little dazed.
Seeing Qin Shijie's appearance, Xia Yao couldn't bear it, but thinking that this was a major matter related to the happiness of both parties' marriage, she immediately said firmly: "Shijie, I'm sorry, but I can't agree to our marriage, because I already have a love in my heart." people."
Qin Shijie forced a smile on his face, and said: "Yaoyao, I have never heard of any friends of the opposite sex around you. You can't just make up the reason because you don't want to get married so soon, right?"
"not like this."
Xia Yao shook her head.
Qin Shijie immediately said anxiously: "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Qin Ruhai said in a deep voice: "Uncle Xia, although our Qin family is not the kind of messy people, it is definitely not the kind of family that is bullied. The previous marriage contract was agreed upon by the parents of both parties, and we came here today to give the dowry. But now something like this is happening, are you trying to make me, Shijie, the laughing stock of the Yanjing business district?!"
Although most of the people present were relatives and friends, they would not spread rumors, but it would always be greatly affected if this kind of thing could not be contained in the paper.
