    In the 1960s Chongxi 2

    On the way back, the grandparents and grandchildren were speechless all the way, and their faces were not very good.

    After returning home and entering the study, his father-in-law patted the table and cursed, "It's so deceitful! What a new era and a new society, what everyone is equal, is fart! What if we ordinary people, even if they are rich? Isn't it lower than their officials?!"

    Elder Yue sat behind the desk, closed his eyes and said nothing, but his heart was turned upside down.

    Since ancient times, the ranks of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce have been clearly divided, and merchants have always been the lowest. Although the Yue family is rich, the rich are not as powerful as the others. The people never fight against the officials, let alone the officers.

    "Grandpa, Dad, don't be angry anymore. Anyway, I don't want to tie up with Ning Haobo. He doesn't like me and I don't like him. After we get married, I will definitely not be happy. This is just right now, and it saves me getting married with him. After that, they hated each other." Tao Yuan was worried that the old man was irritated, so he comforted them. "They have a saying that it makes sense. Arranged marriages and unsentimental marriages may make people unhappy in their lives. Now I am relieved of the marriage contract."

    "You are still young, and you don't understand the twists and turns. The key is not that they want to dissolve their engagement, but that they are today..."

    "Ruqing," Grandpa Yue suddenly opened his eyes and interrupted his father-in-law, "You should go back to the room and rest first."

    Tao wished to know that he didn't want to let himself hear those words, so he could only stand up and leave the study.

    After Tao Yuan closed the door, Grandpa Yue said to his father-in-law, "What are you doing with your child? He must be uncomfortable in his heart. You still let him know these things. Since he is young, how can he bear so many things in his heart."

    "Dad, their Ning family is really deceiving people so much, I just can't swallow this breath!"

    "If you can't swallow it, you have to swallow it," Mr. Yue said, "I'm working hard with this family business. I don't know how much anger I have received. If I can't swallow every breath, can this family still have today?"

    "In the past, our family used the power of the whole family to take out most of the property to help their family. Later, their family's military ranks became higher and higher, and their official positions became larger and larger. We did not think about letting their family repay us. It was them. He proposed a marriage, saying that if Ruqing married to their family, he would treat Ruqing as his grandson. Now he turned his face to deny others, and acted like this for his own reputation. We are so bully and can let them do whatever they want Knead it?"

    There was a knock on the door, and Grandpa Yue responded, "Come in."

    The steward walked in and said, "Master, the Ning family is here, and he also brought a lot of things, saying that he was here to apologize."

    "Tell them, we apologize and we accept it, and the things are no longer needed. Let them take them back." Old Master Yue said, "Tell them again, we can't afford them, not their problem."

    The butler was ordered to leave the study.

    Grandpa Yue said to his father-in-law, "Although our family is just ordinary people and can't provoke them to be officials, we still need to have the backbone. We won't have contact with the Ning family anymore."

    Hearing the return, Old Man Ning knew that the things sent had been returned, and he sighed long, knowing that this time he had completely offended the Yue family.

    "This father and son of the Yue family really don't know how to promote!" Father Ning could not help complaining when he saw that Old Man Ning was depressed, "This time we owe their family a favor. If they need help in the future, we will naturally do our best to help. They. Is it good for their family to completely cut off contact with our family?"

    Grandpa Yue waved his hand. "It's true that we have done too much, but anyone who is a little bit angry can't ignore it. If our family is treated like this, they will feel the same way. Their family was kind to us back then. Family, this kindness has not been repaid until now, and this time I owe such a favor. No matter what kind of attitude their family is, as long as they need help in the future, you must do your best to help them. I'm dead, and I can't pay off these debts."

    "Dad, what are you doing with these unlucky words?" Father Ning said, "You are in such a good old health, and you can live for at least 20 to 30 years. Our family is still counting on you."

    Elder Ning sighed and shook his head again.

    "Dad, don't sigh." Mother Ning said, "Marriage is a lifelong matter. Since Haobo is in love with Wen Han, we can't beat the mandarin ducks, right? Not to mention that Wen's family is right with us, Wen Han is so good. Grandson daughter-in-law is much better than Yue Ruqing. As for the favors owed to their family, we will gradually pay it back. We are officials and they are businessmen. There is always time to pay back."

    "It's just that Haobo suddenly got married to Wen Han like this, so there won't be any opinions from the He family?" Father Ning was still a little worried. They were not afraid to offend the Yue family, but they did not dare to offend the He family.

    "Isn't Wen Han talking about it. I have already told the He family to dissolve the marriage contract. Have they agreed to it?" Ning Mu said not caring too much. "Furthermore, it's not certain whether their family He Liyuan can wake up. I heard that even if you wake up, you will probably be disabled, and you will have no fertility. Is it necessary to let Wen Han marry and stay a living widow? Their family can't do such a wicked thing, right?"

    "Don't talk about the right and wrong of other people's homes, and take care of your own family's affairs." Grandpa Yue said, "Since they have already received the certificate, choose a date and have the wedding."

    Ning Mu immediately stood up and happily went to get the calendar out, ready to choose a good day.

    After the Ning family contacted the Wen family, the two families happily prepared for the wedding.

    The literary family was also relieved. Compared to the Ning family, the He family was the best choice. After all, Father He was of a higher level, and He Liyuan was younger and more promising. But He Liyuan was seriously injured on the border battlefield. Even if he was lucky enough to wake up, it would be difficult for him to continue to lead troops. The most important thing is that He Liyuan not only ruined his face, but also his body. It is impossible to have fertility in the future. His children are hurt by their own family, and the Wen family is also reluctant to let Wen Han marry the injured He Liyuan.

    A few days later, people from the He family suddenly came to the Yue family, and it was Elder He who came personally. He and Elder Yue had a long chat in the study before leaving.

    After sending the He family away, the father-in-law asked, "Dad, why did Chief He come here in person? Is there something important?"

    Grandpa Yue walked in silently, walked to the living room and sat down, and finally said, "After He Liyuan was sent back, he has been in a coma for more than a month. Whether he can wake up is still unknown. The old lady in their family fell ill in a hurry. It’s said that I’ve looked for a master long ago to find a person who matches the eight characters to survive the catastrophe. Our family Ruqing’s birth time happened to be right with that master, they wanted our family If Qing married in the past, I was happy."

    "Chongxi?!" The father-in-law opened his eyes in shock, and said excitedly, "Isn't this a nonsense?! Now they are starting to crack down on feudal superstition, why are they still making Chongxi this?!"

    "Sit down and listen to me to finish talking to you."

    "Anyway, I don't agree." The father-in-law said angrily, "Wen's family regrets their marriage, so let our family Ruqing go to cheer, why? How can they oppress people more than they did in feudal society?!"

    "Isn't their family going to force me? They didn't agree, but their old lady didn't eat or drink, so they had to tell them. They couldn't watch the old lady starve to death, so they could only come over and discuss with us. There is one thing that I have never told you. When I was young, Chief He saved my life."

    The father-in-law opened his mouth and couldn't say a word for a long time. He was stunned for a long time before he said, "So their purpose is to let our family Ruqing repay their favor? What is this? Our family is kind to the Ning family. , They said that if they broke the contract, they would break the contract. The He family is kind to our family, so they must repay the kindness. There is no such bullying, right?"

    "They didn't mention anything about gratitude, I just told you about it."

    "Then what do they mean? Since we don't want us to repay, why should Ruqing go to please?"

    "What they mean is to get a marriage certificate to make the old lady feel sad, and will not really make Ruqing bear the responsibility of husband and wife. Regardless of whether He Liyuan can wake up, he will definitely let them divorce in two years. There is a fake marriage. They also said that it doesn’t matter if we disagree, but I hope we can think about it, and we will not treat him badly in the future and treat him as our own child."

    The father-in-law sarcastically said, "The Ning family also said that they would treat Ruqing as their own child, what about now?"

    Father Yue sighed and said, "If Chief He did not save my life, I would not have survived until now, and I would not have had you. After all these years, people may have forgotten that this happened. After all, Chief He saved me. Many people have passed away. It’s just that I have been thinking about this in my heart."

    The father-in-law closed his eyes. "They said it was a fake marriage, but what do others think? After we divorced once, can we find a better person after being married?"

    "I am willing to marry." Tao Yuan said while standing on the stairs.

    The two turned to look at him at the same time.

    Tao Yuan went down the stairs and stood in the living room and said, "Grandpa, Dad, I am willing to give He Liyuan a happy birthday. Anyway, I just get a marriage certificate. This will not only repay my grandfather, but I will also have the best of both worlds in the future. , Why not do it?"

    "You silly boy, things are not as simple as you think." said his father-in-law. "Everyone is talking about new society and new ideas, but it is still impossible to achieve new ideas completely. You are married If you get divorced again, you will definitely be chewed behind your back, and it will be difficult to find a better person to get married in the future."

    "But I think if I want to find another person to marry, I must find someone who loves me, otherwise, why do I have to make do with others for a lifetime? People who truly love me don't care if I have been married. Those who love to point and point behind people will chew their tongues no matter what others do. I live for myself, not for them, so what do they care about?"

    "Ruqing," said Grandpa Yue, "Grandpa knows that you are a sensible child, but the kindness that grandpa owes does not necessarily have to be paid by you. You are still young, do not make decisions lightly, you may regret it later. ."

    "Grandpa, I know you and Dad are doing it for my own good, but I also have my ideas." Tao Yuan sat down and said seriously "I think if I can get the favor of the He family, I will marry better in the future." Because everyone knows He Liyuan’s situation, he may not be able to wake up in this life. Even if I have been divorced, but I am still an innocent person, and the He family is the backer, the choice is not higher? ?"

    Grandpa Yue and father-in-law looked at each other, and they didn't expect that Yue Ruqing, who was originally introverted and obeyed the arrangement, would say such assertive words.

    "Grandpa, Dad, don't worry, I will get better and better, and no one will look down on me."
