Chapter 1122: Engagement of the Two Elders

in anything inappropriate. 。But shortly after we provided the Organization Department with our written feedback, we received a batch of problem clues from the Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Prosecutor'...Xiao Xinghai and Tang Jiaqi, Xiao Xingyun and her son Zhang Haiming all stood up immediately to toast Mr. Xiao and Ye Chuan Ying. 。The projects mentioned by Old Master Xiao just now, such as real estate, pharmaceuticals, technology, and electric vehicles, are projects they are already doing or planning to do! With this tens of billions of orders in hand, the Spring Festival has come with a bang! How could they not take it seriously

The world is bustling because of profit, and this is especially evident in large families. 。Grandfather Xiao said, "You don't need to toast to me. If you want to toast, toast to Xiao Zheng and Jing Yu! If it weren't for their feelings for the Xiao family, they wouldn't have come to celebrate the New Year, and these orders wouldn't have come to the Xiao family." 。These orders are actually year goods sent for Xiao Zheng and Jingyu. 。“Mr. Xiao didn’t say that to show off, nor did he intentionally make things difficult for Xiao Xinghai and Tang Jiaqi and the others. He was speaking from his heart.” 。No matter whether it was Xiao Rongrong and Fei Qingmei, or Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu, Elder Master Xiao harbored a deep sense of guilt in his heart! Towards Xiao Rongrong and her husband, the Xiao family had let them self-exile during the time they needed familial protection most after giving birth to their child. They were left to fend for themselves; towards his grandson Xiao Zheng, due to his frail constitution, the family had once ordered him to be drowned. He never expected that the standards used within the family wouldn't work universally and proved ineffective on Xiao Zheng. 。When Xiao Zheng was born, he was so frail. After arriving in the south, he actually grew up strong and healthy. He even met a good daughter like Xiao Jingyu. The two supported each other and did well in their careers!

So, in the eyes of the current old master Xiao, no matter how much compensation is made, it is not an exaggeration!

Of course, people from the Xiao family don't know about Old Master Xiao's knot, and they think that Old Master Xiao wants to stand up for his grandson, Xiao Zheng. 。Mr. Xiao, the head of the Xiao family in Huajing, holds a prominent position. With orders worth tens of billions of yuan under his control, even though people like Xiao Xinghai and Tang Jiaqi looked embarrassed, they had no choice but to smile and turn around to approach Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu. 。Xiao Xinghai said: "Jingyu, Xiao Zheng, ah, the head of the Xiao family has spoken. Because you are going home for the New Year, the head of the Xiao family came along! Come, let's raise a glass to you" 。Then Xiao Jingyu and Xiao Zheng also stood up and said, "Thank you, Uncle." 。We actually didn't know beforehand. 。We'll get back to you later. 。Xiao Jingyu and Xiao Zheng naturally knew that the head of the Xiao family was trying to save face for them, but in fact, Xiao Jingyu and Xiao Zheng didn't care about the face given by the family at all. After all, the two had experienced the ups and downs of the political arena and knew that many things were superficial, so there was no need to take it too seriously. 。So, they also try to give others some face, and they will never be arrogant just because they have the upper hand. 。At this moment, Tang Jiaqi stepped forward and said: "Jingyu, Xiao Zheng, I was a bit out of line just now. Please don't take it to heart." 。Xiao Jingyu smiled and said: "Aunt, don't worry, we are all our own people, no matter what we say." 。"Xiao Zheng also nodded and said: "Jingyu is right." 。After Xiao Jingyu and Xiao Zheng said this, the head of the family, Xiao Xingshi, immediately felt that his daughter, Xiao Jingyu, was different. She had become more mature. 。Xiao Xing Shi saw Xiao Jing Yu as a bit rebellious, she would go west if he told her to go east. Previously, for the sake of the family's interests, Xiao Xing Shi had her stay in the provincial capital and work just enough to get by, but Xiao Jing Yu went against him and found Lu Zai Xing, who was then the head of the Organization Department, and became a county Party secretary. Xiao Xing Shi wanted her to prioritize the family's future and marry Sima Yue, but she refused and fell in love with Xiao Zheng, whom they thought was a "grassroots" person at the time. 。All these things completely deviated from the path he had set for his daughter. 。So, in the eyes of this father, Xiao Xing Shi, Xiao Jing Yu has always been disobedient. He might get emotional when speaking to people and break off conversations easily with him. 。But the Xiao Jingyu before him was already vastly different. 。When interacting with others, I wouldn't just blurt out my every thought. 。The maturity of a person, to a certain extent, lies in their ability to distinguish between what they want to say and what others want to hear. 。Why has Xiao Jingyu changed so much Perhaps it's because she feels confident now. 。She has a husband who loves her, grandparents-in-law who treat her like their own daughter, mentors like Lu Zaihang, and the Hua Jing Xiao family who bring home orders worth tens of billions as gifts for Chinese New Year. 。So, she no longer cared about everything regarding the Xiao family and the cold words directed at people like Tang Jiaqi! With different positions and perspectives, things that used to matter were now surpassed, and what was once irritating was now covered. 。Xiao Xingshi had to admit, his daughter Xiao Jingyu today was no longer the girl he used to know!

Lu Zai and Cai Jingbo, who were beside him, saw Xiao Jingyu's answer and took a sip of tea, smiling slightly. 。Tang Jiaqi had mentally prepared herself that Xiao Jingyu would probably retort, but instead, he continued to treat her politely and showed no signs of retaliation. 。This surprised Tang Jiaqi a little, and she also felt a sense of loneliness that the other party didn't seem to want to play with her!

After Xiao Xinghai and Tang Jiaqi finished their toast, Xiao Xinyun brought her son Zhang Haiming over to toast as well. Zhang Haiming is a businessman, and when he heard about an order worth tens of millions, the first thing that came to his mind was that it had to fall into his own pocket, nothing else mattered. 。He said: 。He said: "Jingyu, thank you and Xiao Zheng for bringing business to the family! I'm putting it out there, these orders, people outside can do them, we can definitely do them too, and we will definitely do better than others! So, this contract must be signed today! You have to help me talk about this! I'll drink, you guys do what you want." 。。Xiao Jingyu said, "I don't understand these things either. You should talk to GuiGui's second uncle." 。I believe things will turn out well. 。“Xiao Jingyu and Xiao Zheng returned the toast to Xiao Xingyun.” 。Both Xiao Xinghai and Xiao Xingyun's families were happy, but only Xiao Zhan Yu and his wife Zhao Fei felt very uncomfortable. 。Faced with tens of billions of orders, the little trinkets Zhao Fei brought back from abroad are really nothing. 。Zhao Fei's face obviously didn't look good. Xiao Zhan Yu noticed it and gently squeezed Zhao Fei's hand under the table, but Zhao Fei stubbornly pulled her hand back. 。She had long wanted to leave the table, but her upbringing was also quite strict. In this kind of situation, it was not appropriate to storm off, so she held back her anger and sat at the table. 。At this time, Xiao Guigui stood up, holding up his wine cup and said: “Dear friends and relatives, since I came here on my father’s orders today, the order issue is not a problem. Today’s main purpose is to celebrate the New Year well. After we eat and drink our fill, we will sign the contract.” 。"Having said that, Xiao Guigui took a gulp of..." 。Others, too, breathed a sigh of relief and happily drained their cups. 。The atmosphere became lively once again, with glasses clinking and people chatting animatedly. 。As the banquet was halfway through, Ye Chuan-ying, the head of the Xiao family, stood up, holding a cup of wine in his hand. He said, "Today is New Year's Eve, also the day to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new." 。Taking advantage of this good time, I also want to announce something to everyone. 。She paused for a moment, her gaze sweeping over the people at the table. 。All of Xiao's family members were a little curious, staring at her with burning eyes. 。Ye Chuanying lowered her head and gently looked at the old patriarch Xiao beside her, continuing: "Xiao Yi and I are both widowed for many years..." 。When we were young, for various reasons, we missed each other. 。After the death of her spouse, burdened with family responsibilities, we dared not dwell on past affections nor overstep boundaries. Therefore, we have never sought him out. 。Until we have all cultivated the family members and the family steps onto the right track under the leadership of the new head.

Perhaps it was fate or perhaps a human comedy, when Jingyu and Xiao Zheng got married not long ago, I and Xiao Yi also reunited after a long time, seeing each other's youthful decay and aging. 。Perhaps, Heaven wants to fulfill us, letting us miss each other in our youth and be companions in our old age After spending some time together, Xiao Yi and I both think that as long as we can accompany each other for the rest of our lives and go through the limited years, we won't have any regrets!

So, today is an announcement, but also a plea, hoping that within the family, they can agree to Xiao Yi and me being married in the future days, accompanying each other for the rest of our lives! That’s all I want to say. 。"With that, Ye Chuan'ying raised her head and drank the wine in her cup in one gulp." 。Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu took the lead in clapping their hands, saying: "We support" 。"Those who are meant to be together should end up together!" Ye Chuan Ying also looked over at Xiao Jing Yu and Xiao Zheng, nodding her thanks to them. 。However, things fell silent on the Xiao family's side. 。Everyone thought that Ye Chuanying, at her age, why would she still want to get married Wouldn't this bring a bad reputation to the Xiao family What would people say The head of the Ye family, Ye Chuanying, has remarried! But just now, the Xiao family brought in an order worth tens of millions to the family. If they were to object to Xiao Lao and Ye Chuanying's marriage now, it wouldn't be the right time. 。Faced with the dilemma of personal gain and family reputation, the Xiao family finds itself in a difficult position. 。In fact, Xiao Guigu also felt a little surprised. 。About this matter, his father Xiao Yi had never mentioned it to him, and he estimated that even the head of the Xiao family, Xiao Fufu, might not know. 。But Xiao Yi was always very dignified within the family, so Xiao Guigu certainly wouldn't dare to stand up and oppose him. He could only wait until the banquet ended and report to the head of the family, Xiao Fufu. 。At this point, Xiao Rongrong stood up and said, "This is great news!" 。On New Year's Eve, we bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. Let's also see my dad and Aunt Ye say goodbye to their single lives and start a beautiful and happy life together! Come on everyone, let's have a drink!”Xiao Yi heard Xiao Rongrong stand up and support them, thinking to himself that among all his children, Xiao Rongrong was the most sincere and courageous. He had been wrong to exile him before. Everything he did for him and Xiao Zheng now was what he deserved!Xiao Zheng, Xiao Jingyu, and Fei Qingmei also stood up. Xiao Guigui had no choice but to stand up as well. 。But the gaze of the Xiao family members turned to the head of the family, Xiao Xingshi. They didn't know what attitude to take Xiao Xingshi hesitated for a moment and said: "Mother, this is a big matter." 。"Can we wait until after today and discuss this slowly, think it over carefully"

"What's there to think over carefully about" Xiao Yi immediately became unhappy. "Chuan Ying, I'm marrying you! I'm telling you all this today just to add some fun." >>> 。Auntie has dedicated most of her life to the Xiao family. She's been widowed for decades and raised all of you children with great hardship. Shouldn't she be allowed to pursue her own happiness now We can't delay this any longer!uld tell Huang Guowei this later!""I dare not, it's best if you say it. You have a higher position and your words carry more weight." 。“Logic doesn't look at one's position or status!” …There were so...
