The arrival of the two people did not cause much reaction. Everyone just looked back and continued drinking and chatting. However, among the crowd, Xiao Zhiyuan, who seemed a bit different, and Lu Heng came in and gave Lu Heng a fist.
Nod and smile politely.
Lu Heng glanced at Xiao Zhiyuan in surprise. It seemed that he had never interacted with him before, let alone friendship.
However, it is always good to receive kindness from others, especially in an environment full of neglect and hostility. Such kindness is even more precious.
Lu Heng nodded to him, smiled and put his hand in return, then walked forward with Liu Qingqing.
"Dad, my daughter, I wish you blessings like the East Sea and a life as long as a green pine tree!" Liu Qingqing, who stepped forward, bowed to the head of the Liu family in front of her with a respectful expression and said hello to the head of the Liu family in front of them.
According to convention, when their children come to pay New Year's greetings, the parents will definitely be very happy and comforted. Even if they don't give a reward, they should still send a few blessings. But the head of the Liu family has no such intention at all.
He just glanced at Liu Qingqing lightly, and then said casually: "Oh, second girl!"
In this way, it is considered as agreed.
This approach made the guests present a little confused. Judging from the way this woman was dressed, with her hair pulled up in a bun, she looked like a married woman. Normally, when a daughter returns home to visit her parents, the reception at her parents' home should be very grand.
Even if the relationship between the two parties is not good, it should not be like this. Just say "oh" and nothing else.
"You are a businessman after all, and you don't even know the most basic etiquette!" Some of the people here are students invited by the Liu family at high prices. They were originally just for show, but at this time, these students also showed contempt for the head of the Liu family.
color.
Among this group of students, Xiao Zhiyuan was sipping his wine while looking at Lu Heng who was standing there with interest, seemingly bored. He seemed to want to see what Lu Heng's reaction would be.
But what disappointed him was that as the head of the Lu family, Lu Heng was supposed to be the one to stand up for this woman, but at this moment he was standing aside, as if nothing had happened. He looked at his sister-in-law being ignored with a look on his face.
Smile as if watching a play.
Alas, he is a rotten scholar after all. Even if he occasionally has a flash of inspiration and makes such a wonderful match, it is just a flash of inspiration. After all, people are still the same people.
In fact, Xiao Zhiyuan had never heard of the name Lu Heng before.
Only in recent days, I heard that there was a scholar who actually resigned himself to work as an accountant. This kind of shameful thing for a scholar was very popular in the Qinhuai River area. Almost all the scholars were secretly talking about it.
This student showed disdain.
Xiao Zhiyuan heard this name inadvertently.
However, he was a little surprised that Lu Heng, an unknown name, could be hyped to such an extent.
When I heard that the people shouting the loudest were the servants of the Liu family and the Yin family of the Su family.
Xiao Zhiyuan, who had previously known that the Su family and the Lu family had an engagement, suddenly realized it.
Oh I see.
A few days ago, in a calligraphy and painting shop, it was the first time he met this guy who was the center of rumors. However, his first impression of Lu Heng was not that he was a silly nerd like the rumors.
This man always had a harmless smile on his face and seemed kind. However, the couplets he wrote casually made Su Wenzheng and himself look at him with admiration and even admire him.
How could such a person be considered a nerd by the servants of the Su family?
However, when I saw him today, Xiao Zhiyuan felt a little disappointed.
The head of the Liu family snorted, and after accepting Liu Qingqing's greetings, he put on a smile, turned around, and started talking to Su Fuyin who was sitting in the seat.
Today, Su Fuyin can come to the Liu family, which is a great honor for him. Such an honor is a great honor for the Liu family.
After the head of the Liu family learned the news that Mr. Su was coming, he spread the money and invited famous talents from Jiangning to visit the Liu family. He wanted to create an atmosphere of a scholarly family and improve the image of the Liu family.
There is also light.
However, just like the practice of arranging flowers on dead trees outside, it is a bit like a tiger rather than a dog. It creates a strong smell of copper.
"Main text, she is the woman you mentioned a few days ago?" Unexpectedly, Su Fuyin didn't want to hear the compliments from Liu Wenyi's mouth, and he didn't want to get too close to the head of the Liu family. He tilted his body slightly and his eyes were burning.
Staring at the miserable-looking woman in front of him, he stroked his beard and said to the eldest son Su Zhengwen beside him.
"My father is wise, it is this woman!" Hearing his father talk about this woman, Su Zhengwen, who knew his father's thoughts well, felt happy, stood up quickly, bowed and clasped his fists to answer.
Su Fuyin took another look at Liu Qingqing, whose face was already slightly cold, frowned, touched his beard, shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that she is a woman. But she can be a concubine!"
"Thank you, Father!" Su Zhengwen was ecstatic in his heart. He came here with this idea today. He didn't expect that his father was so sensible and knew the opportunity so accurately. Now is the best opportunity to propose it.
If this woman refuses to obey, her reputation will be ruined. The students here are all romantic and talented people. Although their talents and learning are good, their character is not very good. Rumor has it that romantic affairs are their favorite. I believe it.
After today, the love story between Liu Qingqing and himself will spread throughout Jiangning City. Faced with overwhelming rumors, Su Wenzheng did not believe that this woman could still reject him.
Moreover, the head of the Liu family is still here today. Compared with his position as a father, he made this request. The head of the Liu family has no hesitation and will definitely try his best to facilitate it.
Su Fuyin turned his head, looked at the head of the Liu family with a smile, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "I don't know, what do you think, Brother Liu?"
The head of the Liu family was stunned for a moment, then looked ecstatic and nodded hastily in agreement: "It is an honor for my Liu family that you are interested in my little girl!"
After giving him a slap in the face, the head of the Liu family turned his head and said to Liu Qingqing seriously: "Second girl, why don't you thank Mr. Fu Yin?"
The students present were angrily expressing their dissatisfaction towards the head of the Liu family and Su Fuyin. However, no one dared to speak out. After all, Su Fuyin was still sitting on top. The students only expressed their dissatisfaction in their hearts.
What surprised everyone present was that Liu Qingqing, a weak woman, was not as helpless as they imagined. Instead, she had a look of frost on her face.
With a determined expression in her beautiful eyes, she bravely raised her head and looked at her father: "Father, my daughter's surname is Lu now!"
As soon as the words were spoken, there was silence in the huge living room. Everyone looked at this woman in shock, as well as the head of the Liu family who looked in disbelief.
I don't know how much determination Liu Qingqing had made with this sentence. Speaking this sentence at this time, she already expressed her intention to sever ties with the Liu family.
This is too difficult for a weak woman!
However, this sentence also diverted everyone's attention away from him.
The face of the head of the Liu family changed, and he turned pale with anger. With a snap, a row of chairs appeared: "Treason, how dare you disobey my order?"
However, Liu Qingqing's face was full of determination. She bravely looked at her father. The determined look in her tearful eyes showed how firm her determination was at this time.
At this time, everyone turned their attention to the scholar with a smile on his face and a calm look in his eyes. Including the head of the Liu family who was shaking with anger.
All the guests' eyes were on Lu Heng, but Lu Heng was... staring at Su Fuyin who was sitting in the seat.
He still had an indifferent expression and a slight smile on his face. But everyone felt the difference in the atmosphere.
