Fall in love with your enemy

Continuing from the last time, Gao Xin and I became unreasonable and scolded Shang En at the door of our old house. People heard us. As a result, not only did we not apologize, we even beat him up. The Shang family camp The man fell on his back and his horse fell over.

But...so what!

They were the ones who started the trouble and deserved to be beaten. It's a good thing we didn't sneak them into Showa Hall and beat them in front of the Quan Gao family!

It feels so good in my heart!

But I still had to put on a show, so I coughed, cleared my throat, and put on my usual cold female boss look.

Shang Enci is a young man, so you don’t have to be afraid of him if you don’t have much ability, but the people in Showa Hall are all old gingers, and each one is hotter than the last! I still have to calm down.

Fortunately, the old house of the Gao family is big enough. It took a while for Gao Xinci and I to walk to the Showa Hall at the end, which was enough for me to calm down. During this period, we passed the garden and saw a naughty child playing with bees and being stung by a bee; passing the pond, I saw a carp leaping over the dragon's gate, but accidentally fell to the shore; passing by a teahouse, I saw a child tugging at his grandfather's beard.

Everything is a peaceful and peaceful scene, but I can't be paralyzed. You know, these people all have the surname Gao, and they are not on the same level as the people outside with the surname Shang. If you let down your guard, I will give you Fu. The family is in disgrace, although there may not be anything dangerous today.

The original fifth master is dead, and today's Showa Hall is for free. Even if you want to find trouble, you probably won't pick today, because you are too outstanding, and it will be bad to be haunted by the fifth master's ghost.

After a while, Gao Xinci and I arrived in the yard in front of Showa Hall.

The Gao family all like Chinese-style houses. The most important Showa Hall is naturally antique, and most of the people inside are wearing simple antique clothes, which makes me feel like I have traveled through time.

Alas, the clothes I wear today are of a lower grade, and I look like a bronze, but you can’t blame me. I originally thought that I would just go out for a date, but who knew there was still a battle to be fought? No one informed me. If I were told in advance, I would wear a dragon robe and come out!

Gao Xinci took me first to say hello to the two people sitting on the Taishi's chair under the eaves.

"Second Master, Third Master."

Gao Xinci bowed slightly to the two heads with an awkward but polite smile, and I followed him.

Only then did the second and third masters raise their heads, and after responding, they all looked at me, and then asked in unison: "Xin Ci, who is this..."

Gao Xinci put his arm around me and said, "She's my fiancée."

The faces of the second master and the third master were obviously a little worse. I guess it was because they saw that my dress did not look like a person who could hinder Gao Xinci, so they were frustrated. However, they could not say this directly, so they looked at each other. Then he nodded helplessly.

"Okay, pretty good... Oh, by the way, Xin Ci, lead this girl to offer incense to the Fifth Master."

Gao Xinci stopped being polite to them and took me away.

But after I got a little further away from the two people, I couldn't help but pinch Gao Xinci gently on the waist.

"I was just your girlfriend two days ago, and today I am your fiancée? You haven't come to propose marriage yet. Do you want to marry me if I agree?"

We don’t know why, but we felt shy when we said this.

Gao Xinci's ears turned red, but he didn't lose any of his skills with his words. He was much better than before. He leaned into my ear and said, "Isn't it a matter of time to propose marriage? As for whether you agree or not... ... If you don’t agree, I will kidnap you and take you away.”

I hit Gao Xinci with a cute punch to the chest.

After the sweet talk, we went to the black and gold lacquered coffin in the center of the yard, where the fifth master lay peacefully.

The courtyard is covered with white hangings and incense is lingering, all for this once glorious Fifth Master, but this star has fallen in the end.

The fifth master's wife and descendants knelt in front of the coffin and cried in confusion. I don't know whether they were crying for the fifth master or themselves, but I guess they were crying for themselves.

I have never dealt with this fifth master, but in my previous life I heard Gao Xinci say that he was very pitiful and pathetic.

He has been great all his life. He has money, status and everything, but he has never had any sincerity. Let alone his little wife who is only in her early twenties. He himself knows that they are here only for money. A man who is willing to fight He just wanted to endure it, but he didn't expect that even his biological son, who he had loved all his life, was not sincere to him at all. Before he died, his son had already planned how to spend his inheritance. The mourning now is also It's just because the fifth master's brand is about to be handed over, and they are unwilling to do so.

But the fifth master deserves it. He put all his efforts into his career and left nothing for his children. No matter what happens to his children, they will only give away money. Money is indispensable. But it is also cold and cannot be used to replace father's love to warm the children's hearts. Doesn't the fifth master deserve it? He didn't realize this until he was dying.

Forget it, the dead are the most important, so I won’t think about these things.

Gao Xinci and I took the incense handed to us by the two girls standing by the coffin and bowed to the Fifth Master.

After we paid our respects, Gao Xinci and I also went to find a place to sit under the eaves. The servants in the old house brought us tea. They were dressed in red and green, and they didn't care at all that there was a coffin placed in the courtyard. Not only them, but also many people were wearing brighter clothes, which was in great contrast with the white-decorated courtyard. Only a few close family members of the original fifth house wore mourning clothes.

This is also the rule of the Gao family. Although the dead are great, they are not as great as heaven. The five heads of the family are the heaven of the Gao family.

Today is the funeral of the original fifth master, but it is also a happy day for the new fifth master to take over the brand of Wufang.

Alas, I am wearing a black skirt. Will this be considered disrespectful to the new fifth master? Should I go change my clothes so as not to cause trouble to Gao Xinci...

However, before the plan to change clothes could be carried out, the gatekeeper of Showa Hall was already standing in front of the hall, waiting for the bell in the backyard to ring three times before shouting "open the hall".

The Gao family who were joking in the courtyard now lined up in silence and gathered in the middle of the courtyard. Gao Xinci was afraid that I would be lost by them, so he kept holding my hand tightly and protecting me in his arms until we Go to where we belong.

In front of the hall, there are one gold platform, two silver platforms, and two bronze platforms. The gold platform is the first, followed by two silver platforms side by side, and then the bronze platform side by side, which is the position of the head of the fifth house. My mother-in-law is standing on the golden platform. He and Gao Xinci were standing behind him.

But here I think I still have to explain something. The gold, silver and bronze platform I mentioned is just a description. We did not really put such a large piece of gold and silver in the ground! Not that luxurious! We are not taken advantage of! What to do if you step on it! Please don’t let anyone try to lift up the floor of my house after hearing about gold, silver and bronze platforms...

What's under my feet is just broken jade of different colors, not worth much.

Alas, think back to the last life, how many cases of warped floors were handled by Gao Xinci and I? I'm so tired...

I sighed, but it was just such a sigh that made my mother-in-law turn around and notice my presence. A look of surprise appeared on her face, but this surprise only showed for a moment.

"Sir, please follow Xin Ci closely and don't run around. Don't worry. There won't be any trouble today." My mother-in-law whispered to me.

After my mother-in-law finished speaking, Gao Xinci immediately leaned into my ear: "I told my mother that I wanted to marry you, and she agreed. I have recently been looking for a good and auspicious day to go to the Fu family."

I glanced at Gao Xinci and saw that this guy had a very "bright" smile.

This progress... is so fast that even I didn't expect...

So is my previous life really my problem? Why did you delay us being together so late? In this life, I have only taken the initiative a little bit. Within a month, Gao Xinci proposed marriage to me. Well, it seems that I really woke up late. Not only did I wake up late, but I was also a bit carefree...

Oh my God, okay, it's my fault, I'll correct it, but there's something unreasonable about this matter!

"You're getting engaged, have you discussed this with me??? I didn't know anything about it!"

A weird scene happened, I was getting engaged, and I didn’t know it yet.

"Oh yes, it seems that I haven't told you yet, so I'll tell you now. Do you agree or not?" Gao Xinci took my hand and seduced me with her beauty.

Oh, old fox, I really have entangled with a monster. Even if I regret it, I can't even run away.

"You have just offended my father. Even if I agree, he may not agree and will not give you the household registration book."

"Don't panic, it will still be six years from now until we are old enough to get the certificate. I will slowly beg my father-in-law for forgiveness, but if I can't, then I will steal..."

I really couldn't help laughing, but in order not to embarrass the elder, I tried my best. I bit my lip and it smelled like blood. Gao Xinci was the same as me, but our behavior still caused a stir. The dissatisfaction of the last two.

The second master coughed, and the third master's face was also very dark.

Gao Xinci and I quickly shut up, but the reason for shutting up was not because of fear, but because of pity for the angry half-dead old man. They were not the ones to arrange the new fifth house leader family. They were already angry enough, so we two children Why don't you make the two of you even more angry? We are so generous!

We stopped chatting and looked forward together. An old man dressed simply but exuding dignity appeared from the corridor behind Showa Hall. She was sitting in a wheelchair and was pushed out by a servant.

This is the oldest person in the Gao family now. I calculated that she should be ninety-seven years old now. Gao Xin and I decided to call her grandma.

The great-grandmother has never been married and has no children. She seems to have no role in the Gao family now, but she is still truly respected by all the Gao family, and they leave the old house to her alone.

Biologically speaking, she is no longer related to us.

The reason why the Gao family respects her is very simple: although we are not related by blood, the old lady has worked hard all her life for the Gao family. Although she is old, no one can deny her past achievements, and the old lady has a gentle and kind nature, which is the same as before. Unlike Mrs. Gao, the old lady doesn't care how close her nephew is to her and treats her as her own. Who among you here has not received her care?

So even if she is old, the descendants of the Gao family, who have always been at odds with each other, will unite together and live in peace and tranquility whenever they see her, just to prevent the old lady from worrying.

The church is open today, and as the old lady is an elder, we naturally have to wait until she comes out and enters Showa Hall before we can go in after her.

When the old lady went in, Gao Xinci and I followed my mother-in-law in.

Showa Hall is very large, with hundreds of seats, enough to accommodate everyone who came today. The Gao family is very particular about the placement of the places. Our family is very similar to them.

……

Well, our family copied the Gao family. When grandpa wanted to strengthen the Fu family, he had to pretend to set some rules, but he couldn't figure out how to do it. It happened that he and the Gao family's grandpa were good friends, so he started from the Gao family's grandpa. The layout of Showa Hall was obtained there, and the "meeting room" in our house was called Hong Hall.

The door of Showa Hall is open, and a long carpet is spread from the door to the top. There are two seats in the middle, one in front and one behind. The taller one in the back is the old lady, and the one in front is my mother-in-law's seat. There are Taishi chairs on both sides of the carpet, in the middle of every two seats. Set up a small square table for tea. There are six rows of seats extending back, all facing the middle. Two Taishi chairs plus a square table constitute one seat. On the left sit the family members of the wealthy family, and on the right sit their partners or brothers and sisters. .

Hmm... I know that my ability to describe is not very good. If you don't understand, then forget it, it's not important. But if you are really curious, then please open the comment area and I will post a picture to make it clear at a glance.

Oh, those who read the original novel can see the pictures, but the pirated version does not. I just want to appeal to support the original reading.

Gao Xinci and I sat down in the place that belonged to us. After everyone was in place, the stage was set up.

But before singing, the old lady asked a wave of questions.

She pointed at me.

I knew she didn't know me, so I asked her. However, the old lady usually didn't speak aloud, but everyone present could understand what the old lady meant.

The mother-in-law quickly explained: "This is Xin Ci's fiancée, her name is Fu Xishi."

The old lady nodded, but soon she pointed to the next one.

Yo? Someone else brought his fiancée here?

I looked in the direction of the old lady's finger.

Hey, let me go! Cheng Xiaorui! The novel-level love story of the second bedroom, the silly and sweet heroine in the story about the president, the granddaughter-in-law of the second bedroom’s old man, a character who almost made the old man vomit blood.

Although we haven't interacted with each other much, I still know a little bit about the inside story. This love affair was insisted on by the silent heir of the second wife. Others looked down on her, so she fell in love with Cheng Xiaorui. There was nothing wrong with Cheng Xiaorui. I would say people are indeed kind, but just a little bit poor.

The old man of the second wife saw that his grandson was such a capable person, and originally wanted to marry him to a girl. Who knew that he would actually bring a stupid girl into the family? He scolded his grandson several times for not living up to expectations. In addition, Gao Xinci married me at that time. Even though our marriage seemed disgraceful, in the eyes of the second master, it was much better than Cheng Xiaorui, and then he became angry. He went to the hospital, but this still couldn't stop his grandson's love brain from stealing the household registration book and getting the certificate from Cheng Xiaorui.

It took a long time for the second roommate to recognize Cheng Xiaorui. I couldn’t help it. I really admire her ability to carry three of them for five years without having to empty her stomach. If you compare it with me, you can see the difference. I only gave birth to such a child. Let’s talk about the family. Please help... Cheng Xiaorui has no family background, but at that time I had almost severed ties with the Fu family, and it was no different from having no family background.

But what I didn’t know was that he and Cheng Xiaorui had gotten along so early?

The old lady pointed at Cheng Xiaorui, who stood up and bowed to the old lady, but the second master was still angry and had not introduced her for a long time, so he had no choice but to get up by himself.

"Grandma, this is my fiancée Cheng Xiaorui."

The second master raised his head and glared at them, took out the medicine from his pocket and took two pills.

The old lady nodded again, and then she said nothing more, and the main scene began.

As I thought, the first show: mourning and mourning.

The people from the original fifth house came up and cried a lot, and then the eldest son of the original fifth master reluctantly handed over the owner's sign. When the new fifth master went up to get the sign, the child's teeth were almost broken. I It gave him a headache just looking at it.

The second program: tea ceremony.

The juniors who were younger than the Fifth Master collectively stood up to offer tea to the Fifth Master and bowed slightly. Gao Xinci and I also stood up with tea in hand.

But it doesn't end after the tea ceremony, of course we have a third show.

It took a lot of effort to open the Showa Hall, but how could it end so easily? I have understood this truth a long time ago, so after the tea ceremony, I still sat firmly in my seat and had no intention of leaving like others.

Sure enough, within half a minute, Shan Enci's words started the third program.

"Don't leave in a hurry. I still have something to say, Master. Oh no, it's not the case anymore. It should be the chairman. I know it's not good for you to say this in front of so many people. , but I am afraid that you will be hidden, and I really can’t wait..."
