Xia Zhiyuan's question touched on the key point as to what the Xu family's attitude was.
Li Juan was also stunned and looked at Xu Tianyin.
"Do you, the Xu family, think of a family that is engaged in business?" You're laughing. My daughter, she just doesn't have the Huaxia Group. She is at home, and our husband and wife treat her as the apple of our eye. Whether she has the ability or not, we don't want her to be wronged when she gets married in the future. You guys. The Xu family is the family of the founding fathers. Since ancient times, they have been scholars, farmers, and merchants. The official family has a high family background, and the family status of the merchants may not be valued. To be honest, if our Xiao Shao marries a suitable family in the future, they will definitely treat her as a treasure! Adding trouble to her. But when she marries into your Xu family, who guarantees that she won’t be looked down upon or looked down upon by others? Even if I say something unpleasant, it’s still a problem if your Xu family doesn’t agree with her marriage. "
Li Juan's face turned pale. All along the way, she was preoccupied with the scene in the online video of Xiao Xu proposing to her daughter. She was thinking about when exactly these two children got together. No matter how deep the problem was, she didn't have time to think about it. Now it seems that the husband has given it more thought.
These things are indeed the biggest problems.
Xia Zhiyuan looked at Xu Tianyin and asked again: "Xiao Xu, don't blame your uncle for speaking poorly. I just want to ask you, did your Xu family know in advance that you proposed to Xiao Shao? Do you agree? If not I know, you made such a fuss, and the whole world knew about it. Then you, the Xu family, will say that you don’t like Xiao Shao and won’t let her in. How do you plan to teach her to behave in the future? "
Li Juan's face turned pale again, yes! If that were the case, wouldn't my daughter become a laughing stock? Where will you put your face in the future
Both the couple looked at Xu Tianyin, and Xia Shao also turned to look at him. She felt a little guilty in her heart. If she hadn't randomly found a proposal problem and thrown it to Xu Tianyin to give him a headache, thinking of using it to delay the two of them, he wouldn't have done anything to satisfy himself. This one comes out today. Naturally, there won't be so many headaches.
To put it bluntly, Xia Shao felt that she was also responsible for today's situation.
Xu Tianyin still held Xia Shao's hand. Facing the gazes of Xia Zhiyuan and his wife, he straightened his back and sat upright. This was not the first time that Xia Zhiyuan and his wife met Xu Tianyin. When they first met him, they thought the young man had a cold temperament, but after getting along with him, they realized that he was cold on the outside but hot on the inside. He didn't talk much but did a lot and was filial to his elders. Therefore, seeing that he still looked cold as usual at this moment, I didn't think anything of it, I just wanted him to speak plainly.
"Grandpa is here in the Xu family. I have an uncle and an aunt. One cousin and one cousin." Xu Tianyin explained the situation of the Xu family clearly in a few words, "My marriage only needs to be reported to grandpa. No. I need my uncle and aunt to make the decision.”
Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other. This sounds good. Mr. Xu must be the head of the Xu family. With him around, no one else can speak. Although uncles and aunts are elders, they cannot influence the marriages of younger generations. This is the case in any family.
But why does this sound wrong
"Xiao Xu, where are your parents?" Li Juan asked.
Xia Shao looked at Xu Tianyin nervously. It was obvious that he was holding her hand tightly, but his expression was as usual and his voice sounded calm, "They have been dead for many years."
"What?" Xia Zhiyuan and his wife were stunned.
"Senior brother's parents died unexpectedly when he was very young. Mr. Xu doted on his senior brother very much. All the descendants of the Xu family are involved in politics. Only he joins the army, so it is up to him." Xia Shao explained to her parents. In fact, she had never met Xu Tianyin's grandfather, so she had no idea what that famous old man was like. These are all inferred from the few words Xu Tianyin said in the past. He told his parents at this time just to temporarily reassure them. As for the Xu family, they would have to meet sooner or later. Xia Shao planned to fight for what he could, and there were other ways to fight for what he couldn't.
Everyone in the world is interested in profit. Although officials and businessmen have different families, their interests are not divided into families.
Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan were obviously surprised that Xu Tianyin's parents were no longer alive. Xia Zhiyuan was shocked and said: "Then, so you only need the old man to make the final decision on your marriage?"
"I make my own decisions about my marriage. Grandpa is the elder. I only need to leave it to him. Other family members have no right to interfere with my affairs." Xu Tianyin's tone did not sound like an argument, but just like stating a fact.
A fact that he has a very special status in the Xu family.
Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan actually heard the majesty and coldness in his words.
No right to ask
What does it mean to have no rights
"That's right. Your uncle and aunt can't make the decision on your marriage. How can they not have any contact with you in the future?"
Don't blame Xia Zhiyuan for thinking too much, that's just the way he and his wife are. When they got married, the old man looked down on Li Juan and his eldest sister Xia Zhimei looked down on Li Juan's education. So after getting married, no matter how he protected his wife, Li Juan was always picked on during the New Year and holidays. If their daughter hadn't become more successful, the status of the couple in the Xia family would have been different, and Li Juan didn't know how long she would be picked on.
Of course, Xia Zhiyuan knew that Xu Tianyin was capable and had the status of Chenhui God of War. But he is also a junior in the Xu family. If his parents are critical of his daughter, what can he do if he continues to protect her? Don’t you have to listen to unpleasant words
Xia Zhiyuan and his wife have lived this kind of life for half their lives, and he does not want his daughter to live this kind of life under any circumstances.
"No one can show Shao's face." Xu Tianyin said.
Xia Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, and then he wanted to frown - these words sounded like empty talk, what was the point
But Xia Zhiyuan couldn't say it. When he saw Xu Tianyin's face, a word suddenly stuck in his throat.
Xu Tianyin's aura was cold, and his whole body seemed to be covered with ice. His military uniform set off this aura. It looked like if anyone in front of him dared to look at Xia Shao's face at this moment, he would be killed immediately!
Xia Zhiyuan and Xu Tianyin were sitting across from each other, and they suddenly shivered!
This guy is no joke! He feels it.
Therefore, no matter how empty talk you think it is, it is impossible to refute it at this moment.
A seemingly meaningless statement seemed like a solemn promise at this moment.
Xia Zhiyuan didn't know how to answer the question for a moment, but fortunately, Xu Tianyin's momentum didn't last long, and he took it back before Xia Shao could comfort him. Then he nodded apologetically to Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan, stood up and poured hot tea for them and was handed over. Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan were still stunned, but when they saw Xu Tianyin handing over tea, they accepted it eagerly. Then I saw him sitting back and continued: "Grandpa knows about this. I talked to him last night and he has no objections."
These words made Xia Zhiyuan and his wife, who had just recovered, be stunned again, but this time even Xia Shao was stunned.
"What? Does the old man know?" Xia Zhiyuan's eyes went straight.
Xu Tianyin nodded, "Grandpa has no objection."
Now Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan looked at each other, neither of them knew what to say.
Xia Shao looked at Xu Tianyin. She understood her senior brother and he would not tell lies. Although his words were concise, they were true. What he said was "no objection, no objection", but he didn't say that the old man agreed.
In other words, Mr. Xu has not made his attitude clear yet.
"Didn't the old man say there was a difference in family status?" After a while, Xia Zhiyuan found his voice.
Xu Tianyin looked at Xia Zhiyuan and said, "Grandpa is a farmer."
One sentence left Xia Zhiyuan speechless.
Indeed, during the Anti-Japanese War, most people were from poor backgrounds, and the elderly may not have any sense of family status. But half a century after the founding of the People's Republic of China, after staying in the center of power for such a long time, will it really not change? Even if Mr. Xu doesn't have a sense of family status, can the rest of the Xu family not
Thinking of this, Xia Zhiyuan sighed heavily.
"Let's eat. Let's talk after dinner." Xia Zhiyuan pointed to the cold dishes on the table.
Not to mention that the dishes were cold, no one was in the mood to eat today. Xu Tianyin, on the other hand, ate in silence for a while, then called the hotel waiter to take some dishes off the table and heat them up.
Xia Shao smiled warmly when she saw the dishes. Those are the dishes that her parents use their chopsticks the most, and of course, there are also some that she likes to eat.
Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan also noticed it. The couple looked at each other and said nothing.
It wasn't until the meal was almost finished that Xia Zhiyuan put down his chopsticks and said, "Xiao Xu and I have a few words to say, you mother and daughter should go to the room first."
Xia Shao looked at her father, and Li Juan stood up, looked at her daughter, and winked at her. Xia Shao had no choice but to go out and follow her mother back to the hotel room, leaving Xu Tianyin to face his father alone.
When she arrived at the room, Li Juan went to sit in the dining room first, then looked at her daughter who had closed the door and walked over. She didn't know whether her eyes were reproachful or helpless. Xia Shao smiled, her smile was peaceful and a little flattering. Li Juan laughed immediately, then glared at her, "You know how to hide everything from your parents! How dare you hide such a big thing!"
Xia Shao just smiled and said nothing. What could she say? Can you say that you knew your parents wouldn't agree, so you didn't say anything on purpose
"That's good. We have met our son-in-law a long time ago, and your father and I are still in the dark!"
Xia Shao smiled again, her smile more flattering.
"What do you think? Xiao Xu is ten years older than you! The age difference is too big!" Li Juan looked at her daughter helplessly and somewhat resentfully.
After hearing this, Xia Shao sat over and sat next to her mother, "Mom, you and my dad have seen the temper of my senior brother. He is actually not cold-tempered, but he doesn't talk much, but he is attentive and good at taking care of others. ."
"Mom knows." Li Juan sighed and told the truth, "Xiao Xu is a good boy, Mom can see it. Mom has no problem with Xiao Xu's character, but he is much older than you, and the threshold of the Xu family is too high." High. Shao, your dad and I are afraid that you will be wronged in the future. Do you understand? If you marry into the Xu family, your parents will be honored in this life. Their daughter can marry into the family of the founding fathers! What else can be better than Is this more respectable? But your parents would rather you marry into a family with lower thresholds, where they will treat you as a treasure, than if you suffer a lot of grievances, and your parents can't even be your master!"
Li Juan said this with red eyes, "It's because your dad and I are incompetent. If we were capable parents, we wouldn't have to worry about you being wronged."
Xia Shao quickly handed a tissue to her mother, feeling warm in her heart and comforting her words, "Mom, I know what you and Dad think about. But you also think of me too lowly. How do you know that I must be the one who has been wronged? ?You still don’t know whether your daughter is the one who has been wronged?”
Li Juan wiped her tears, was stunned, and then said: "I know you are not wronged, but when you get to the Xu family, if you are not wronged, you have to make trouble with the Xu family. That's not what your aunts and uncles are like. Can you think of treating the Xu family like you did to your aunt and uncle?"
"That's not possible." Xia Shao smiled, but the smile was a little deep.
Treat different people with different methods.
No matter how great an official is, isn't he still an ordinary person
Ordinary people are easy to deal with.
Of course, Xia Shao didn't want to use any means against the Xu family. Now it's just a presumption that they're going to cause trouble for her. Haven't you seen it yet? It would be best if it wasn't that serious.
When Li Juan saw her daughter smiling like this, she knew what she was thinking! That time when her aunt and uncle provoked her, she laughed like this, and she quietly invited all the gangsters.
Li Juan was a little worried, but Xia Shao reassured her: "Mom, don't worry. I know what I do, and you don't know this?"
Li Juan didn't know what to say. After a while, she sighed, "It's because my mother didn't pay much attention. When I saw that you and your senior brother had a good relationship, I thought he treated you like a sister. Who knew that you two young people... ah!"
Li Juan muttered, but when she said this, she seemed to have remembered something very important. Her expression suddenly changed, and she turned to look at her daughter, looking at her, "Tell mom, Xiao Xu... didn't, didn't treat you." How's it going?"
Xia Shao was stunned and quickly shook her head, "No! Mom, where did you want to go?"
Naturally, she can only deny this matter. If she dares to admit it, both she and her senior brother will be beaten today.
Li Juan breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Shao looked at the time and saw that it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. It seemed that she would have to take leave from military training this afternoon. Xia Shao's assessment was absolutely correct. Xia Zhiyuan and Xu Tianyin talked for nearly two hours. She didn't know how Xu Tianyin talked so little and Xia Zhiyuan talked with him for so long.
Xia Shao didn't know what her father was talking about with Xu Tianyin, but Xia Zhiyuan looked good when they knocked on the door.
"Okay, I heard that you are still in military training? Then go back to school quickly. Your mother and I will stay in the capital for one night and leave tomorrow. We have things to do at home." Xia Zhiyuan said as soon as he entered the door.
Xia Shao saw that it was already three o'clock, and her parents were leaving tomorrow, so she had no intention of going back to school at the moment. So she went to the hotel corridor with Xu Tianyin and asked him to go back to school first, treating her as asking for leave this afternoon. Moreover, Xia Shao asked Xu Tianyin not to go to Capital University to watch her military training tomorrow. This would have a bad influence, and since he had just arrived at the Beijing Military Region, he must have a lot to do, and she didn't want him to delay his work.
Xu Tianyin naturally agreed to Xia Shao's request. Now that both of them are in the capital, and Xia Shao is studying in college, he has much more time than in high school. The two of them will see each other more often, so they are not in a hurry for this period of military training.
After Xu Tianyin left, Xia Shao stayed in the hotel to spend the night with her parents. Surprisingly, neither Xia Zhiyuan nor Li Juan said anything about this matter. It was only when they got up and went to the airport the next morning that Xia Zhiyuan looked at his daughter with some emotion in his eyes.
"Listen, if the Xu family asks you to sit at home or have a meal, you should be generous when you go. Remember, although our family status is not as good as ours, it is not embarrassing! If they make things difficult for you, this marriage will not matter. Just talk about it. Your parents will never ask you to live a life of grievance. Do you hear me?"
Xia Shao smiled and nodded, feeling warm in her heart.
After saying goodbye to her parents, Xia Shao rushed back to Beijing University, it was almost noon. Calculating the time, the morning's military training was almost over. Xia Shao did not go to the military training field and simply returned to the dormitory.
She hasn't even tidied up the dormitory yet. After her mother came to clean up the dormitory for her that day, she didn't come back at all that night. Instead, she slept with her parents in the hotel. Later, after her parents left, Xia Shao went out to play outside the school with Liu Xianxian, Miao Yan, Yuan Ze and Zhou Mingxu and did not return all night. At the opening ceremony the next day, after the marriage proposal, Xia Shao hid out for the night and stayed with her parents in the hotel last night. So after counting, it had been a few days since school started and she hadn't slept in the dormitory yet.
Not only have I not slept, I haven’t even packed my luggage.
Xia Shao packed up everything in the dormitory, then went to the bathroom to wash her face. When she came out, she heard the dormitory door open and the girl who came in was talking.
"Where did Miao Yan come from? Why is she so quiet and stingy? She looks like a bumpkin from the countryside!"
"Didn't you come from the countryside? I heard that my grades weren't very good either. I live in a border province and got through with low scores."
"No wonder! I talk so softly and stingy that I don't even dare to shout loudly during military training. If this continues, it will definitely affect our department on the day of the assessment."
"What is the assessment? Don't you dare to train well without looking at the instructor? Who told us that there is a commander's wife in our class?"
The two walked in while chatting and laughing. After they finished talking, they saw where Xia Shao's bed was in the dormitory and their luggage was packed.
The two of them were stunned. A few days after school started, they naturally knew that they were in the same dormitory as Xia Shao. But she hasn't come back in the past two days. She took leave yesterday afternoon and this morning. The whole department is saying that she must be dating the commander.
Why did this come back
The two of them stopped together with a thump in their hearts, but when they saw Xia Shao coming out of the bathroom, their faces turned pale.
Xia Shao is a corporate CEO worth tens of billions. Just because of this, they have to look up to him. Moreover, she is still the favorite of the country's youngest major general. I heard that Commander Xu’s family background is not simple. In the case of military-business marriage, Xia Shao's identity is even more desirable. As students of Beijing University, how could the two of them not understand this
It was precisely because she understood that when she was talking about Xia Shao behind her back, she didn't listen and the two of them changed their expressions.
Xia Shao's eyes were very indifferent, and she went to the table to pack up her college textbooks. She said in a nonchalant manner: "Don't talk about the rights and wrongs of people behind their backs. I think that on this most basic moral issue, all primary school students should be able to read the full text of the online game Shanzhai Myth."
The two girls' faces immediately turned red, and they smiled unnaturally, not daring to refute a word. But Xia Shao packed up her books, raised her head to look at the two of them, and nodded gently, "I also feel that military training is related to the honor of the department and class, so it's not good to just hang out."
The two girls were stunned and realized what Xia Shao's words meant. Xia Shao, on the other hand, went straight out of the dormitory. In the corridor, he met many girls returning to the dormitory. When they saw Xia Shao, they all paid attention to them. Xia Shao ignored the looks around her indifferently. When she walked to the stairs, she met Miao Yan who had returned, and the two went out to eat together.
Liu Xianxian majored in dance in the music department. She was not in the same dormitory as Xia Shao and Miao Yan. They went downstairs to Liu Xianxian's dormitory. The girl took a shower, changed clothes, and put on makeup beautifully before coming downstairs. Immediately he smiled at Xia Shao: "Hey, the commander's wife is waiting for me here? It's so embarrassing! No, I have to post this on the Internet to hype it up for myself."
Xia Shao knew that Liu Xianxian had a venomous mouth and was too lazy to argue with her. She called Yuan Ze and Zhou Mingxu and the five of them went to dinner together.
When Yuanze saw Xia Shao, his expression was as usual. Although it was spread in the school that Xia Shao was dating Xu Tianyin as soon as he was in military training, he still had a warm smile on his face when he saw Xia Shao. The two have been friends for so many years, and Yuanze still understands Xia Shao's temperament. She has never been a high-profile person, so how can she be the kind of person who walks away during military training just to stir up conversation
She must have encountered something that required her to leave.
Sure enough, during lunch, Xia Shao told her parents about coming to the capital, and received surprised looks from Yuan Shao and Zhou Mingxu, worried looks from Miao Yan, and gloating laughter from Liu Xianxian.
In the afternoon, Xia Shao returned to class military training, but starting from that afternoon, the freshmen in the economics department, who had been enjoying themselves for a day and a half, began a devilishly high-intensity training.
The instructors seemed to want to make up for the previous training intensity. When other classes were training, they also trained, and when others were resting, they stood in military posture. While others were singing and playing games under the trees, they were running circles around the playground.
Over the past few days, the class in the Economics Department was filled with complaints.
The two girls who shared the dormitory with Xia Shao naturally thought that this was Xia Shao's signal to the instructor. But if I tell you this, no one will believe it!
Xia Shao is from Class 1 of the Economics Department. When she trains, she follows him. When he stands in a military posture, she follows him. When he basks in the sun, she follows him. When he runs on the playground, she follows him. The boys in the class were all complaining about the intensity of the training. She was a girl who looked weak, how could she be included in it
Nonsense!
The two girls were terribly aggrieved. When they looked at Xia Shao again, they felt shocked and suspicious. I don't know why, but I always feel that military training is very easy for Xia Shao. The boys were all sweating profusely from exhaustion, but her face looked clean. After training for half a month, everyone was tanned. The girls were screaming in the dormitory, but her skin was still as white as jade. On the training ground, I don’t know how many people caught my eye.
In this world, people are always comparing themselves to each other, which can make people angry.
But I can't get angry, and I can't compare.
Seeing that tomorrow is the day of the military training assessment, and the military training will be over tomorrow, the instructors rarely relaxed this afternoon and let them rest early.
The boys shouted and ran to sit in the shade under the trees, while the girls ran to the bathroom, washed their faces, and put on sunscreen.
There are too many people entering the bathroom, so bumps and bruises are inevitable. Just as Xia Shao was about to go out, he heard an exclamation from inside, and then someone shouted: "You don't have eyes!"
Xia Shao turned around and saw that the person who was scolding him was her roommate in the same dormitory. She didn't care what his name was. The girl who was scolded had a small face and a pair of eyes that were as sharp as knives. She just smiled and nodded, "Yes, I don't have eyes."
She admitted so straightforwardly that the girl in Xia Shao's dormitory was stunned. Then, she felt a slight pain on the tip of her finger, but she didn't pay much attention to it.
