"Brother Chen, what's the matter? Has the matter come to fruition?" Shen Zhenghao asked after answering the phone.
"It was an accident, it's confirmed..." Chen Zhantian said.
"Brother Chen, let's go with our condolences, you and I are both martial arts practitioners, take it easy..." Shen Zhenghao comforted.
"I understand, thank you, Brother Shen, but I am calling this time to talk to you about our Chen family's decision." Chen Zhantian said.
"The decision of the Chen family?" Shen Zhenghao was taken aback for a moment, thinking what did the decision of the Chen family have to do with him? In the past, the two families were in-laws, so you can listen to it yourself, but now, what do you listen to
"Chen Jinpeng has been established by my father as the heir of the third generation of the Chen family. All the resources of our Chen family will be tilted towards him. In this way, I think there is no need to dissolve the marriage contract between our two families. My brother is gone. Brother's fiancée marrying younger brother, this is also a common thing in our families with ancient martial arts!" Chen Zhantian first explained this matter with reason and evidence, and then said: "Brother Shen, what do you think?"
"This..." Shen Zhenghao didn't expect the Chen family to make a decision so quickly, which made him a little embarrassed. He understood what Chen Zhantian said. Let alone not married, he was married. Sister-in-law married younger uncle. It was also common in ancient times, at least it makes sense in terms of etiquette.
Moreover, this is actually a situation that Shen Zhenghao is willing to see. He has been in contact with the Chen family for so long, and the next step of substantive cooperation is short of it. This is not good for Shen Zhenghao's son competing for the position of heir, so after thinking about it for a while, Shen Zhenghao agreed: "I think there is no problem, but on my daughter's side, I have to do work, after all, I need her consent. "
"Hehe, it's okay, and Jingxuan doesn't need to agree directly, or the two children can get in touch first, and it will be a matter of course if they are familiar with each other." Chen Zhantian said, of course, if the two of them start to get in touch, things will be fine. It's almost inseparable, the established facts have been created, and the rumors have been released, can things still happen? The two families are people who want face, and the children of the aristocratic family, either they are not together, or they must insist on being together, otherwise the final result will be a falling out between the two families.
The Xiao family and the Cheng family, the Yue family and the Tang family, isn't that the case
"Well, I won't bother you. There are a lot of things at home now, and I have to deal with them." Chen Zhantian had achieved his goal, so he stopped talking. Preparations for his son's funeral had already begun.
After hanging up the phone, Shen Zhenghao sighed, looked at Shen Jingxuan and said, "Jingxuan, it's settled, your marriage partner is Chen Jinpeng."
"Chen Jinpeng?" Shen Jingxuan was taken aback, Chen Jinkun, she could barely accept it, but she couldn't look down on Chen Jinpeng, this person has no ability, he is a playboy, following behind Xiao Chen, pretending to be powerful.
Of course, what Shen Jingxuan couldn't accept the most was that this person was double-faced, and she looked down on this kind of behavior. Since you are Xiao Chen's younger brother, why did you take refuge in Cao Yuliang
"Chen Jinpeng has now been determined to be the third generation heir of the Chen family, and all cultivation resources will be tilted towards him. Although this person's status in the Chen family will not catch up with Chen Jinkun for a while, it will be a matter of time." Shen Zhenghao said: "Jingxuan, this person is still good, no matter what, he is better than Xiao Chen from the Xiao family, right? Chen Jinpeng can at least cultivate."
"Oh..." Shen Jingxuan knew that her father had already made a decision, and what she said at this time was useless. In fact, Shen Jingxuan felt that Xiao Chen was really better than Chen Jinpeng. At least Xiao Chen lost the halo of the young master now , can still live well, which shows that Xiao Chen is not a good-for-nothing.
When Xiao Chen returned home at night, Jin Beibei hadn't left yet, and was discussing with the eldest lady about a character in the TV series. Seeing Xiao Chen's return, Cheng Mengying snorted unhappily: "Beibei and I are still here." Didn't eat, you came back so late, let us drink northwest wind? Don't you know what your identity is?"
"Hehe..." Xiao Chen was already used to the eldest lady's princess disease, and put the bag in his hand directly on the tea table in front of them: "Taste the twisted twist and fried cake I fried for you!"
"Wow, cousin-in-law, you have added new varieties? This twist looks delicious!" Jin Beibei said, drooling, and started to work, picked up a twist, and stuffed it into the innermost part.
"It looks oily. I wonder if I'll get pimples if I eat it?" Although Cheng Mengying also thought that the mahua looks good, but Xiao Chen came back late, so she couldn't be happy as soon as she brought out something delicious, right? That's too easy to coax: "But this lady is naturally beautiful, so I can force myself to eat a little, which one should I eat first?"
"Wow, it's delicious, cousin-in-law, your cooking skills are really good, whoever marries you will be happy in the future..." Jin Beibei's mouth was full of oil, one in each of his left and right hands.
"Hey, save some for me! You damn baby, do you want to eat it to death?" Cheng Mengying was holding back there, but she suddenly found that there was only one fried cake left, and the remaining three were all eaten. Jin Beibei ate, and there was another one in her hand, which made Cheng Mengying anxious, and snatched it away: "Don't you know how to give in to my cousin?"
"Oh, he's a cousin anyway. You are a cousin. You can eat it whenever you want. I can't, unless you give me your cousin..." Jin Beibei grabbed a twist reluctantly.
"Xiao Chen, there will be something delicious in the future, don't give it to Beibei." Cheng Mengying snorted and ordered Xiao Chen.
"Oh, hehe." Xiao Chen smiled, seeing the two girls eating happily, Xiao Chen also heaved a sigh of relief, to be honest, he really came back a bit late, his current status is a big The young lady's male servant is busy with his own affairs every day, which is really a bit unreasonable.
"Cousin-in-law, if you want to marry your cousin, you have to please me!" Jin Beibei said.
"You guys eat, I'll go back to the room first." Xiao Chen is going to make medicine, and he doesn't want to say anything more on this topic, after all, he thinks it's impossible to be with Cheng Mengying, it's okay to joke, but this kind of joke It's not good to always open.
"Come back early tomorrow to buy a car." Cheng Mengying glanced at Xiao Chen and said.
"Buy a car?" Xiao Chen just remembered that Cheng Mengying said about buying a car on the weekend, but he just forgot about it: "Okay, I'll be back in the afternoon."
Back in the room, Xiao Chen sent a text message to Tang Tang, talking about buying a car tomorrow.
"What are you going to do to buy a car, and it's not for you?" Tang Tang's news came back quickly.
"Hehe, I'm the driver." Xiao Chen replied.
"Oh, then you go, but you have to come in the morning, I am too busy in the morning." Tang Tang said.
"I will definitely go in the morning. I will go there early tomorrow, knead all the twists, cover them with plastic wrap, and you can just cook them in the afternoon." Unsurprisingly, when it comes to making twists and fried cakes, Xiao Chen Still very proficient.
The next morning, or not early in the morning, Xiao Chen got up at two o'clock in the morning. Since he had the advantage of making food, Xiao Chen didn't want to waste it, so he didn't need to eat instant noodles anymore. Pot of lean meat porridge, left a note for the eldest lady and Jin Beibei, and went out.
Because he was going to buy a car today, Jin Beibei stayed here at night.
Xiao Chen came earlier than usual, so he started kneading dough in the yard of the old woman's grocery store, but to Xiao Chen's surprise, Tang Tang came after a short while.
"Why did you come so early?" Xiao Chen was a little surprised.
"Don't you say come earlier, I woke up and couldn't sleep, so I came." Tang Tang smiled: "Let's do it together."
"Uh, good." Xiao Chen felt that it was a bit ambiguous to work together, but it seemed that his thinking was too complicated.
The car accident on the streets of the morning market had no impact on the morning market. No one in these ordinary families would care about Chen Jinkun's death. Only at the level of the aristocratic family did it cause a lot of shock.
Some people are sad and some people are happy. In fact, many families are unwilling to marry the Chen family and the Shen family. After all, if the Chen family is powerful, it will definitely threaten the status of other families. And now the Chen family has lost a promising third generation. And the marriage is definitely going to fail, many people are watching the jokes of the Chen family.
Who would have imagined that the Chen family's reaction would be so fast. On the night of Chen Jinkun's death, Chen Jinpeng would be pushed out, and the marriage contract with the Shen family would be inherited by Chen Jinpeng.
Of course, matters on these levels have nothing to do with Xiao Chen and Tang Tang at the moment, and no one told them the follow-up of the matter.
Xiao Chen didn't care at all. From his point of view, no one could doubt Chen Jinkun's death, at least not at this stage. Before he showed his strength, he was still safe.
"Hey, now that I think about it, it's better for you and me to be divorced than for Shen Jingxuan's fiancé to die. If Shen Jingxuan wants to marry in the future, the choice is a bit narrow." Tang Tang felt that Shen Jingxuan was quite pitiful.
"It's okay, she doesn't like Chen Jinkun either, she will die if she dies." Xiao Chen liked Shen Jingxuan before, even now, he still has some good feelings in his heart, he naturally doesn't want to see Shen Jingxuan unhappy.
Sometimes, it is also difficult for Xiao Chen to tell whether it was because of Tang Tang that he killed Chen Jinkun yesterday, or because he did not want Shen Jingxuan and Chen Jinkun to be together. Of course, the former is definitely the main thing, and the latter also faintly affects Xiao Chen's decision.
"Huh? It sounds like you are interested in Shen Jingxuan?" Tang Tang was actually quite sensitive, and from Xiao Chen's tone, he heard something unusual.
