Chapter 318: Becoming Rich
Qi Zhenbai’s words terrified the Qi family. Qi Yunxuan, Qi Yunchang, and the Qi family’s female elders were so scared that their bodies trembled and their faces turned pale.
Of course, this also brought a lot of talisman business to Chi Shuyan’s shop after that, but that was for later.
Because of this, everyone lost their appet.i.tes.
While they were eating, the Qi family didn’t forget to talk about the Zhao family. This tragic incident was simply too shocking.
“This half-baked Celestial Master is really scary! She harmed others and herself!” Second Aunt Qi suddenly lamented.
The others echoed her, and Grandpa Qi also deeply agreed. It was a good thing he hadn’t had the time to play matchmaker back then. Zhenbai, this kid, also had his own resolve to find a good wife.
Otherwise, this old man would regret it to death. It wasn’t that Grandpa Qi disdained Miss Li now for being disabled, but one could see what her character was like from her actions.
How could such a girl become the matriarch of the Qi family in the future?
Grandpa Qi and the others subconsciously thought that Perfected Zhang was the one who exorcised the malicious ghost. When Grandpa Qi thought of how Shuyan, this child, didn’t bear a grudge and took the initiative to help others just now, he praised Chi Shuyan. “My granddaughter-in-law doesn’t hold a grudge at all and even took the initiative to help others!”
Though he felt gratified, the old man was also worried about what would happen if his granddaughter-in-law got bullied because of her good temper. He hurriedly exhorted Qi Zhenbai, “Zhenbai, take good care of your wife in the future. Don’t let my granddaughter-in-law suffer!”
Chi Shuyan blushed and felt guilty at the old man’s praise!
Helped someone? She went to watch a show, okay? What kind of excuse had that man given Grandpa just now?
Everyone was also taught a lesson at the same time. Third Aunt of the Qi family said to Qi Yunchang that she shouldn’t look for a husband who was too handsome in the future.
There was nothing good about a man who was too handsome!
As soon as Third Aunt finished speaking, Qi Yunchang blurted out, “Mom, what man can be better looking than Eldest Cousin? Then, according to you, Eldest Cousin isn’t a good guy either, so won’t my sister-in-law also regret it?”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at Qi Zhenbai and Chi Shuyan in dismay.
The Qi family’s Third Aunt also looked embarra.s.sed.
Chi Shuyan didn’t feel anything, but the man next to her suffered an undeserved calamity.
Fortunately, the Qi family’s Third Aunt reacted quickly and said, “If you can really find someone who’s as good-looking as your eldest cousin, it’s still fine if his character is pa.s.sable! The children they’ll give birth to in the future will be beautiful!”
As soon as Third Aunt finished speaking, Chi Shuyan was very embarra.s.sed in the face of everyone’s teasing and ambiguous gazes. Grandpa Qi was also interested and said cheerfully, “Zhenbai, hurry up and let this old man carry a grandson. Wait, Shuyan is still young. It’s fine, I can wait a few years!”
The Qi family patriarch also specifically mentioned that Chi Shuyan would start attending Yanjing University this year, and also said that he would hold a dinner party for her and give her a red packet.
Although the Qi family knew that Zhenbai’s wife was young, they didn’t know that she was that young. They heard from the old man that Zhenbai’s wife had just been accepted into Yanjing University this year.
Everyone kept sneaking looks at Qi Zhenbai in disbelief.
Zhenbai/Eldest Cousin actually found such a young wife?
Chi Shuyan immediately gritted her teeth and said that there was no need to hold a party or give her a red packet.
In the end, Grandpa Qi thought that since the two children hadn’t registered their marriage, Zhenbai’s wife would be embarra.s.sed if a dinner party really was thrown for her. He could only say that he would make up for it in the future, but she couldn’t refuse a red packet.
No matter how curious everyone was, as soon as the old man spoke, they immediately went upstairs to prepare red packets.
After the meal, no matter how Chi Shuyan refused, there were too many red envelopes for her two hands to take. In the end, she had the man next to her help her out.
As if this wasn’t enough, just as Chi Shuyan was wiping her sweat, Mother Qi thoughtfully gave her a red packet.
Chi Shuyan flushed with embarra.s.sment and hurriedly stuffed the red packet into her bag. Looking at the bulging red packet, she felt that she had gone from a “loser” to a “tyc.o.o.n” again!
