Golden Pink Building

Bai Xiongqi and his wife watched Xiuzhu become more and more silent these days, and they were secretly worried. At night, Mrs. Bai looked at her husband who came in after changing into pajamas, and frowned slightly: "Is my sister worried? I asked today She, she didn't say anything? Did Yanxi make her unhappy?"

"Did Yanxi mess with her? I wish Xiuzhu would break up with Yanxi when she got angry. The sons of the Jin family counted Yanxi as a bad guy, but it's not right. I saw Yanxi and Xiuzhu together in the morning Whispering? She has a temperament, don't it be for the dowry?" Xiuzhu was spoiled and spoiled, his hands are very loose, Bai Xiongqi is very fond of his younger sister, and he is ready to give Xiuzhu a generous dowry.But Bai Xiongqi knows very well that no matter how much dowry Xiuzhu has, it is not as reliable as her husband's future.Yanxi herself can't get any embroidered beads on her own.

That's strange, and Xiuzhu didn't know why it became a little strange.Could it be that he was worried that the dowry would be meager, and he would be ridiculed by his sisters-in-law when he entered the door?When I talked about dowry with her, Xiuzhu seemed even more repulsive.I'm thinking of adding some to the beaded dowry.The fields in the south sound good, but how much is the rent for a year?How about adding more shares to the factory?Mrs. Bai is a good sister-in-law, she and Bai Xiongqi have no children, and now Xiuzhu will get married, she regards Xiuzhu as her daughter.

Bai Xiongqi was a little dissatisfied: "Who dares to make fun of Xiuzhu in the Jin family! Don't say that Xiuzhu has a dowry, she is empty-handed, and the Jin family can't keep up with Xiuzhu. I regret it more and more now that Xiuzhu married them The seventh son of the family, the Jin family took advantage of it. No matter how powerful Jin Quan is, he will step down one day. Now watching their family’s fire cooking oil, waiting for him to leave, they will immediately leave the tea. In the future, the seventh son of the Jin family, Even their whole family has to rely on the Bai family. You tell Xiuzhu not to treat yourself as a little daughter-in-law. If the Jin family dares to bully her, I will make the decision for her. It's really annoying. She has become a doormat before she gets married. I It seems that Yanxi didn't take Xiuzhu fully to heart. Look at Shaoyi's daughter-in-law, she was born as a commoner. But in her husband's family, she is still confident, and the daughter-in-law's confidence is all given by her husband. How dare Yanxi let Xiuzhu down , I will break his leg!"

Seeing her husband's anger rising, Mrs. Bai was busy comforting Bai Xiongqi in a low voice, rubbing Bai Xiongqi's heart: "Don't be angry. I don't know why Xiuzhu is depressed. We don't know why. Qingqiu and I asked about it that day. Xiuzhu. It's really strange, the girl Xiuzhu listens to Qingqiu very much now."

"I think she hasn't heard enough. People with eyes don't approve of her choosing Yanxi. Qingqiu reads a lot, so Xiuzhu should ask her more." Bai Xiongqi sighed and held his wife's hand: "Poor Xiuzhu Zhu has no parents, and grew up with us. Because of this, we all think that Xiuzhu is pitiful. Without parents, we spoil her. You, my uncle, aunt, and my family are all accommodating to Xiuzhu. I don’t know. Whether it is luck or misfortune for Xiuzhu."

A few days later, Qingqiu was trying on new clothes in front of the mirror. Bai Shaoyi stood behind and looked at his wife in the mirror, fawning on his face: "This color is not bad, as your complexion is much better. Actually, I said, you can push it away." Now, who can make a fuss?" Xiuzhu's engagement ceremony is coming soon, and Madam Bai specially asks someone to bring a Western-style skirt to Qingqiu.The skirt is high-waisted and light blue with a diamond brooch and hat, which not only conceals Qingqiu's bulging belly, but the exquisite needlework and lace make Qingqiu look as delicate as a doll.

"My mother is kind, I am in good health, and I want to see Xiufang recently. Xiuzhu begged me to go to the engagement ceremony, she will be so sad if I don't go." Qingqiu turned sideways to look in the mirror with a happy expression on her face Little girl, it feels a little unreal.She didn't expect such a happy smile to appear on her face.In my memory, my expression is always filled with unresolved sorrow, and Qingqiu is a little strange to this happy person in front of me.

Bai Shaoyi stood behind Qingqiu, hugging her gently: "Don't look, you are the most beautiful. Fortunately, you are pregnant now, so you don't need to dress up. Normally, you would just wear homely clothes and go embroidering beads to get engaged Ceremonies are always for others to mess up. Who told me that my wife is as beautiful as a fairy." Qingqiu struggled a little coquettishly: "Don't talk nonsense outside, let people hear jokes. I always feel uneasy, and Xiuzhu has not been doing it recently. Knowing what she was thinking, my sister-in-law and I asked her several times, but she didn't say anything."

"You worry too much about her. Xiuzhu has her own sister-in-law. In fact, if Yanxi can live well with Xiuzhu, they can also live well. It's getting late, you should go to bed early, and you have to work all day tomorrow " Bai Shaoyi supported Qingqiu to rest without mentioning it.

The Jin family was decorated with lanterns and festoons. Although there were not many guests, the relatives of the Jin family and the Bai family who came were very important figures.Compared with the wedding ceremony, the engagement ceremony is much simpler.It was just two families sitting together, and under the witness of everyone, a highly respected matchmaker came out and said that the Jin family and the Bai family had decided to marry.Bai Xiongqi represented the Bai family, and Jin Quan represented the Jin family, each talking about the scene.Next, Yanxi gave Xiuzhu a diamond engagement ring, and Xiuzhu gave Yanxi a pair of expensive pens, completing the engagement ceremony.Afterwards, everyone was toasting, chatting and laughing happily, and held a feast to celebrate Yanxi and Xiuzhu's engagement.

The engagement ceremony went smoothly, and everyone was enjoying themselves with wine. Jin Quan raised his cup to Bai Xiong and said, "Although this child of Yanxi is uncertain, his innocence is the most important. In the future, if Xiuzhu has any grievances, I will definitely teach Yanxi severely. From now on, Yanxi will be your sister-in-law, if there is anything wrong with him, you just teach him."

Bai Xiongqi was busy being humble: "What did the teacher say? Yanxi has a straightforward personality and is smart. He will definitely make great achievements in the future. I, as a brother, can rest assured that Xiuzhu can find such a good home. Teacher, rest assured , I will definitely support Yanxi well, I will never forget the teacher's kindness back then."

Several heavyweight guests here all echoed and said: "Brother Yanxi and Miss Bai are a match made in heaven, this is really a beautiful story." Both Jin Quan and Bai Xiongqi breathed a sigh of relief, especially Bai Xiongqi, although he Deep down in his heart, he was still a little dissatisfied with Yanxi.However, he and Jin Quan formed a son and daughter in-laws, and his influence in the political arena is even greater than before.Jin Quan also agrees with the win-win situation, holding his wine glass with a smile: "Thanks to everyone's good words, I originally planned to marry them early. Who knows that there are too many state affairs and it will be delayed. In the future, the wedding of Yanxi and Xiuzhu , and please come to join me. Recently, the public opinion outside has finally become quieter."

Everyone changed the topic and talked about Jin Quan's order to arrest people. At this moment, Li Zhong came over on tiptoe with a dark face, but Mrs. Jin had sharp eyes and hurriedly called Li Zhong to stop. "What's going on, you're in a panic!" Mrs. Jin smiled apologetically at the female relatives present, stood up and asked Li Zhong what happened.

Just as Li Zhong was about to speak, there was a burst of crying outside.Although Jin Quan was old, his ears were very sensitive. His expression changed slightly, and Li Zhong said in a low voice, "It is Mrs. Ouyang who has something to ask to see the Prime Minister."

Mrs. Jin seemed to notice something, she quickly explained: "It's a former distant relative, I'm going to see her." Saying this, Mrs. Jin took Li Zhong out hurriedly.As a result, Mrs. Jin went out for a while, and the crying and shouting outside became louder.Bai Wenxin and Bai Xiongqi exchanged glances. The two of them peeked at Jin Quan's face getting darker and darker, and were busy trying to smooth things over: "We're full, so it's time to get up and walk around." Jin Quan was eager to end the banquet, so he Going along with the flow: "The hospitality is not good, everyone, please go to the small living room to smoke and rest."

The male guests go to the small living room to smoke and talk, while the female relatives here, Xiufang stands up with her belly outstretched, calling all the ladies to the small flower hall.Qingqiu and Mrs. Bai accompanied Xiuzhu, today Xiuzhu is very beautifully dressed, completely made of powder and jade, like a beauty of heaven and man.Qingqiu found that Xiuzhu couldn't hide her worry.She was secretly surprised that the engagement was fine, but when she heard Ouyang Yujian's mother coming, Xiuzhu's face was uglier than Mrs. Jin's.

Jin Quan was so angry that his face was flushed red in the study, he was trembling all over and couldn't speak, Ouyang Lan was crying so hard, Mrs. Jin was speechless.With a crisp sound, Jin Quan slammed the Jun Kiln brush washer on the table to the ground, and he finally took a breath: "Who is behind the scenes! I must catch that person."
