C310 Fang hanshans promise (1/2)
Not to mention what kind of plans Fang Jinlei had in mind, in the flower hall in the Qingming Villa Garden, a silent battle was also in progress.
In the center of the east wing of the hall was a classical Chinese style building that was built in the shape of a courtyard house. After entering the courtyard, the Fang family's patriarch, Old Master Fang Hanshan, was sitting on the sofa, leisurely sipping a cup of tea. Behind the old man were Fang You De and Fang Ruowen, who were standing to the left and right side of him. Of course, the smack marks on Fang Ruowen's face by Ye Qian still remained.
The Tian Clan Patriarch, Tian Huan, was sitting upright on the opposite side of Fang Hanshan. He could not help but size up Fang Hanshan's expression, while muttering to himself.
Inside the flower hall, Su Qianhong was conversing with a young man. This young man was none other than Shi Ding's youngest son, Shi Ting.
Even though Shi Ting was young, he was still a smart person. Knowing that Su Qianhong was his mother was trying to curry favor with her. Although Su Qianhong was not some princess from a noble family, after staying in the Fang family for such a long time, she was still able to see through people very accurately.
Su Qianhong clearly knew that this Shi Ting in front of him wasn't a good match for her daughter, but she still had a face full of smiles. After all, compared to the fool in the legends, this Shi Ting in front of him seemed to be a lot better.
”Aunt, I didn't expect you to have such a good temperament. I'm sure little sister Miao Ge must have inherited your good genes. If no one else knows about it, they would think that you and Miaoge are sisters! ” Shi Ting sat opposite of Su Qianhong and said some good words.
Su Qianhong only let out a light laugh at Shi Ting's flattery, and casually replied, ”Xiao Shi, you really know how to speak. Aunt is already a young girl, how can she compare to a young girl like Miao Ge!”
”Aunt is too modest. Sister Miao Ge's beauty lies in her youth and her beauty in her maturity. These are two different styles. It can be said that each has its own merits!”
Hearing this, Su Qianhong laughed out loud. After all, there was no woman in the world who did not like being praised by others.
As he said that, Shi Ting took out an exquisite small gift box and handed it over to Su Qianhong: ”Aunt, this is my first time meeting you, I didn't bring anything decent and proper.
Su Qianhong was startled, and said: ”Xiao Shi, what is this?”
Shi Ting laughed complacently, and opened the exquisite box beside him, releasing a burst of cold air from within: ”Aunt, this is the snow ginseng I specially brought back from the Long White Mountain, it has the effect of prolonging life. ”As long as you cut a piece of the snow ginseng every day to soak it in water, you will be ten years younger than your mother!”
Su Qianhong was stunned for a moment, and immediately waved her hand: ”This gift is too valuable, I cannot accept it. Xiao Shi, you should take it back!”
Tian Huan, who was sitting on the sofa, glanced at Shi Ting, and laughed in his heart: Shi Ting, this brat, has some skills. In a moment, he managed to fool his mother-in-law, who knows if this and the Fang family's arranged marriage will actually happen.
Shi Ting's way of doing things made Tian Huan, his uncle, very satisfied. But at the same time, Fang Youde also saw all of this.
Unconsciously, Fang You De took Shi Ting and Ye Qian out to compare, and very quickly, the thumping in Fang You De's heart started to tilt.
Although Fang You De still did not like Ye Qian's arrogance, but Fang You De had to admit that the young man called Ye Qian had a genuine personality, and that his arrogance had reasons and strength to support it. As for this Shi Ting who only knew how to flatter and curry favor with his mother-in-law, when compared to Ye Qian, he was not on the same level.
Tian Huan took a sip of the tea beside him, but he was still unable to hold it in. He took the lead and spoke to Fang Hanshan, ”Elder Fang, your Fang family and my Tian family can be considered to be two big families in this Linhai realm. I still had the same intentions as before. I wanted to propose marriage for this good-for-nothing nephew of mine to that lass from your family. I wonder what you mean, Elder Fang? ”
Fang Hanshan smiled without batting an eyelid, ”Xiao Tian, it's not like you don't know about our family's little girl's situation. She has already been pointed out to others by this old man. This girl is second husband, even my old man can't do that. ”
Fang Hanshan did try to make some excuses, but he did not reject Tian Huan's suggestion.
Looking at Fang Hanshan's fake smile, Tian Huan snorted in his heart: Old fox.
Although he did not like Fang Hanshan's ambiguous attitude, Tian Huan still smiled shamelessly: ”I have heard a bit or two about the girl Miao Ge having an engagement before, but Elder Fang, you are talking about the things that happened more than ten years ago. Besides, I heard that the other party is a fool. Elder Fang, you wouldn't have to give up your granddaughter's happiness for this marriage contract, right? ”
Fang Hanshan laughed bitterly and thought: Idiot? Tian Huan, I think you are the fool? That little thing Ye Qian was an expert on Dragon Elephant Stage. In this world, who would have seen an idiot with Dragon Elephant Stage?
