Qiu Xuan was present at what happened last night, and he also admitted that there was indeed something wrong with the way his son acted.
But if Shen Qiqi is going to break off the engagement because of this incident, that's really unnecessary.
Marriage is a major matter, and it is not like children playing house. How can you fall out because of a few quarrels?
They came all the way from Langting to Yuzhou this time, but they came here with the betrothal gift to officially make the betrothal. As a result, before the betrothal gift could even be brought into the woman's house, the son's engagement was annulled by the woman. The news spread, which made the Langting Qiu family lose face. live?
I wanted him to be a good son, but now he suddenly became a second-hand commodity whose engagement was annulled. It is impossible to say that Qiu Xuan has no grudges in his heart.
Therefore, although he knew that what his son had just said was a bit too harsh, Qiu Xuan did not mean to scold him, but just said symbolically: "Feng'er, don't be rude."
Turning to look at Shen Mingyu.
"Brother Mingyu, since that girl Qiqi has no interest in Feng'er, I think it's better to let the marriage go. What do you think, brother Mingyu?"
Even if the marriage is called off, the Qiu family cannot afford to have a daughter-in-law like Shen Qiqi.
Therefore, Qiu Xuan's words were polite and tactful, as if he was asking for Shen Mingyu's opinion, but both inside and outside his words showed his determination to give up on the marriage.
What can Shen Mingyu do?
Ultimately, in his opinion, his daughter did something wrong.
Shen Mingyu had no choice but to bow down and apologize: "I'm so ashamed. It's all because of my lax upbringing and my inability to educate my daughter, which has caused Brother Qiu to suffer."
Qiu Xuan waved his hands and said: "Brother Mingyu, there is no need to blame yourself. As parents, we play the role of supervision and education. In the end, it is up to the children to determine their character."
Qiu Changfeng added from the side: "Miss Shen is very good."
The implication is: It's not that you, Shen Mingyu, are incompetent in raising your daughter, it's that your little daughter, Shen Mingyu, is incompetent. Otherwise, if she was taught by a father, how could the eldest daughter be so outstanding?
Shen Mingyu naturally heard the meaning of the father and son's words, and felt complicated for a moment, not knowing how to answer these words.
Thinking about it carefully, the little girl was actually quite well-behaved before, but since she came back from her experience at Ten Thousand Demons Cliff, she has become a completely different person. It's not as friendly as before.
Shen Mingyu even wondered if his little girl was possessed by evil spirits.
Just as he was thinking about it, a man who looked like a butler came in and said: "Master, the banquet has been prepared and the guests have all arrived. Do you think... how should I explain it to the guests?"
After being reminded by the housekeeper, Shen Mingyu remembered that more difficult things were yet to come.
The food and wine were put on the table, and the guests were all in place, but his daughter ran away before the battle. How could he explain this to a room full of guests?
Shen Mingyu couldn't help rubbing his forehead with a headache, Qiu Changfeng frowned, and glanced at the dignified and gentle Shen Ning'er next to him. He curled his lips and smiled, and came up with an idea: "Shen Shibo, actually this matter is not difficult to solve. "
Shen Mingyu, who was in a panic, heard this and asked quickly: "Oh? Does nephew Feng'er have any good ideas?"
"I'm not talking about good ideas, just some personal suggestions." Qiu Changfeng glanced at Shen Ning'er and said, "I remember that Shen Shibo held a banquet today. He only told the public that it was Miss Shen Er's birthday banquet, and did not clearly say that it was an engagement. Let’s have a banquet. Now that the marriage between Miss Shen and I has been cancelled, why not change this banquet to Miss Shen’s farewell banquet.”
Shen Qiqi, you are not trying to ruin Ning'er's reputation, but I want to help Ning'er earn it back today!
As soon as the banquet was held, everyone knew that Shen Ning'er was accepted as a disciple by the Purple Spirit Immortal of the Wuji Sect.
With such great glory, who would care about the little things on Ten Thousand Demon Cliffs.
At that time, everyone will only be respectful to Shen Ning'er.
Qiu Xuan also thought his son's suggestion was a good one and echoed: "Brother Mingyu, I think Feng'er's method is feasible.
As things stand now, this is the only way to remedy the situation.
Shen Mingyu nodded and said to the butler: "Let's do it this way. The banquet will start as usual."
"Okay, head of the house, I'll go down and start the banquet right away." The butler took the order and went down to start the banquet.
Shen Ning'er never expected that things would turn like this, and she clenched her hands tightly under her sleeves in excitement.
Logically speaking, she should have left Yuzhou for the Wuji Sect yesterday with the immortal envoys of the Wuji Sect.
The reason why she held on was that she was unwilling to leave and wanted to bring Shen Qiqi to the Wuji Sect together; and because her reputation had been damaged at Ten Thousand Demons Cliff earlier, she also wanted to take advantage of the large number of people at the banquet. Reveal the fact that he was accepted as a disciple by the Purple Spirit Immortal Lord.
Most people in the world praise her and look down on her. As long as the world knows that she is now the disciple of the Purple Spirit Immortal Lord, who will bother her with such a trivial matter as coaxing her sister's spiritual stone.
She just wanted to borrow the east wind, but the east wind lifted her up completely. It seemed that even God was blessing her!
But you still have to do what you need to do.
Shen Ning'er suppressed the excitement in her heart and acted accordingly: "Father, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Today's banquet was prepared for Qiqi. How could I steal my sister's limelight? And the immortal envoy... also... It’s easy to explain.”
Shen Ning'er was about to speak but stopped.
She didn't want to leave a bad impression on the immortal envoy and steal her sister's limelight.
Someone had to tell the emissary that this move was not what she wanted and that she was trying to save the situation.
Shen Mingyu didn't want to mention his youngest daughter at all at the moment. Hearing this, he said in a deep voice: "You are helping your sister clean up the mess, how can you claim to steal her limelight? As for the immortal envoy, you don't need to worry, as a father I will explain it clearly to the immortal envoy myself."
After Shen Mingyu finished speaking, he looked at Qiu Xuan with shame: "I'm going to implicate Brother Qiu again."
To explain the whole story clearly to the immortal envoy, it is indispensable to mention the sudden change in the marriage of the two children.
Qiu Xuan didn't care about this.
He waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, brother Mingyu just tell the immortal envoy the truth. As for me, brother Mingyu doesn't have to worry."
"In that case, thank you very much, Brother Mingyu."
At dusk, the lights in Shen's house are brightly lit, and people are laughing and talking.
Just as Qiu Changfeng and Shen Ning'er expected, when everyone learned that this banquet was a farewell banquet for Shen Ning'er, everyone began to praise Shen Ning'er.
As for why Miss Shen Er's birthday banquet was changed to Miss Shen's farewell banquet, no one cared about it at all.
In their eyes, they only saw Miss Shen who looked like a fairy in a white dress.
Even if Shen Qiqi didn't attend, no one cared.
"Miss Shen is an extraordinary person at first glance. Being able to worship at the feet of the Purple Spirit Immortal Lord of the Wuji Sect is truly expected by everyone."
"Yes, yes, I have already told you that Ning'er is extremely smart."
…
All of a sudden, all kinds of praises poured in to Shen Ning'er.
As today's protagonist, Shen Ning'er wears a white dress like snow, exquisite makeup, and looks as clean as a fairy who is not stained by dust.
With a decent smile on her face, she welcomed everyone's compliments with a smile.
"The Taiqing Immortal of the Wuji Sect has excellent medical skills. Girl Ning'er, if you find the opportunity, see if you can help my son who is in poor health to beg for a pill. I am just a son like this, and I don't want to beg him.
How long does it take to live, at least I can’t let my white-haired person give it to a black-haired person.”
An old voice suddenly said.
I saw an old man standing up, his face full of tears.
