Zhao Li was a little puzzled, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
The patriarch remained silent. If you want to solve this problem safely, the safest way is to reconcile!
Of course, he was sure to convince Zhao Dong at the beginning.
After all, things are getting big, and the final result is likely to be both sides!
There are some prices that adults can afford, but for a little girl, it may be fatal!
The negotiations with Zhao Dong just now were a reminder on the one hand, and on the other hand, a warning on the other hand, asking him, Zhao Dong not to joke about Xue Jiaqi's future!
Unexpectedly, the last retreat was cut off by his daughter, and he had no room for relief, and he was sent into a desperate situation!
In anger, the patriarch raised his hand and wanted to hit him. His palm was raised into the air and slowly fell down, "From now on, don't you interfere in this matter, have you heard?"
Zhao Li nodded blankly and watched her father leave.
...
Outside the house, the patriarch hesitated for a moment and called Zhao Dong.
The phone was connected, and neither of them spoke first.
In the end, the patriarch could not withstand the pressure, "Xiaodong, the matter has developed to this point today, which I did not expect at the beginning."
"You have to know that I don't want this to be a big deal. No matter who loses, the loss will be our Zhao family!"
"In this way, if you can trust me, leave this matter to me for the aftermath!"
"The previous promise remains unchanged, and I can make the decision on the compensation for Jiaqi, at least one million!"
"If I can't get it out of the mine, I'll make it up!"
"In addition, give me three months and I promise to shut down the mine!"
"Anyway, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation!"
Zhao Dong was silent for a moment and sneered: "Slap a slap and give another sweet date. Do you really think that I, Zhao Dong, don't know what it means?"
The patriarch tried to mediate, "Xiaodong, what else do you want?"
Zhao Dong's tone was calm, "Are you going to hold a clan meeting later? Let's have an interview."
The patriarch heard something different and hurriedly told him, "Xiaodong, once some things are taken to the table, there is really no room for relief!"
Zhao Dong took a deep breath, "Just ten minutes ago, you personally ruined a girl's future and future. Now you told me to relax?"
"You have been bullied by you even good people in love, so Jiaqi deserves to be bullied by you?"
The patriarch was upset, "I really don't know about this..."
Zhao Dong interrupted, "Class leader, you need to say more. Everyone is adult. Since you have done something wrong, you should pay the price. Are you right?"
The patriarch was silent for a moment, and his tone changed, "You really have thought about it. Do you have to have a breakup with the Zhao family?"
Zhao Dong sneered, "It's not that I want to make a fuss, it's you who are forcing me!"
"Besides, you can't represent the Zhao family!"
The patriarch also sneered, "Okay, then I'll wait for you in the ancestral hall!"
...
Soon, someone gathered in the ancestral hall.
Because it was the Zhao family’s new daughter-in-law who entered the family tree, according to the traditions of her hometown, some procedures and customs must be followed.
In fact, there is no need for such a big show.
However, Zhao Dong's group has a high seniority in the Zhao family, and Zhao Dong is successful in his career, so many people are watching the fun, come to support, and come to see the bride.
There are many people present in the Zhao family ancestral hall, not many of whom are older, but they are younger generations in the clan.
At about ten o'clock, Zhao Dong and Sophie came together in formal attire, and the others followed closely behind.
The patriarch said a few simple words, and there was no abnormality throughout the whole process!
The remaining rituals are presided over by an elder in the clan who is familiar with the process.
The process is not cumbersome, and there are people leading the whole process, entering the book, burning incense, and bowing...
My aunt didn't speak throughout the whole process, but Zhao's mother acted naturally and talked to the elders in the clan from time to time.
The matter of Xue Jiaqi has long been known to everyone in Kuashan Town. Regardless of whether it is true or false, it is not glorious.
Although no one mentioned it, everyone's eyes looked at Zhao Dong and others with some strangeness and gloating.
Zhao Li received her father's advice and did not approach her.
Although he stood behind the person, his face was full of pride, as if he had stepped on the face of Zhao Dong on the ground, and he was indescribable!
After a set of procedures, the ceremony ended soon.
The patriarch came up to persuade him, all of which were polite words, and the general idea was to let Zhao Dong develop well and strive to carry forward the Zhao family's family.
In addition, the patriarch advised Sophie a few words, asking her to take care of her husband and children, and to give birth to the Zhao family.
Zhao Dong and Sophie responded calmly, without any exception, and everything followed the rules.
Until the end of the ceremony, there was no storm!
An insider was looking at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.
For the rest of the time, everyone gathered together for lunch, and it was time to return in the afternoon, so there should be no trouble!
Zhao Li looked at the whole process, and the smug look on her face could hardly be overwhelmed.
She attributed all the silence of Zhao Dong's journey to herself!
If she hadn't used her previous means to suppress Zhao Dong, how could today's ceremony be so smooth?
The more Zhao Li thought about it, the more proud he became. She couldn't help but mocked him: "If you don't give you some pain, you won't have a memory!"
Compared to the relaxation of others, the patriarch's expression is even more solemn!
He vaguely felt something was wrong because the chat with Zhao Dong on the phone was not pleasant, but today's ceremony was too smooth!
Of course, the patriarch did not hope that something would happen, it would be best if things could be resolved peacefully!
Even if Zhao Dong changed his mind temporarily, his previous promise would definitely make up!
After all the process was completed, the patriarch stepped forward and said with a pun: "Xiaodong, blood is thicker than water, our clan is harmonious, how good do you think this is?"
"No matter how far you go outside and have a root under your feet, you will feel at ease. Are you right?"
"No matter how good your development is, Ye Luo still returns to his roots and family affection cannot be broken!"
"I believe you can understand this principle!"
"Let's go, let's have two drinks today, I'll practice it for you in person!"
"At the same time, I wish you a bright future for your young couple!"
Zhao Dong nodded, "The patriarch is right. As long as the roots are there, the incense will be there. Once you prosper, you will prosper and lose. I still understand this principle!"
"Of course, I, Zhao Dong, can achieve what I have today, and it is definitely inseparable from the support of all the fellow villagers."
"Today, most of the tribesmen are here. I, Zhao Dong, have a word here to say!"
The clan leader came forward to stop him, "Xiaodong, what do you mean? We are talking at the dinner table."
"This is an ancestral hall, not suitable for chatting!"
Zhao Dong's face gradually became serious, "It's not just a chat, what I want to talk about is the serious matter!"
The patriarch narrowed his eyes, "My must I say it here?"
Zhao Dong said loudly: "Of course!"
As Zhao Dong finished speaking, the scene gradually became quiet.
A gloomy flashed in Zhao Li's eyes and she cursed in a low voice: "Bah, I don't know how to lift up!"
Huang Zhiqiang stood behind the person and gave a wink at the door!
There were many figures, and soon someone sealed the door of the ancestral hall tightly!
