Stand-In Boyfriend Fu Zheng Ji

Chapter 345 The Li Family’s Luck

It doesn't matter whether you are related by blood or not.

As long as there are sufficiently pure and sincere feelings between people, it is enough.

After all, even if they are related by blood.

There is an atmosphere of separation and disunity.

It is better not to have such blood relatives.

Today Zhang Ling is happy and confident.

Because she knew that she also had a big family with strong enough family cohesion.

Zhang Ling thought of this.

She had just made up her mind to do it for her relatives and friends.

It was announced in public that today's engagement banquet held at the old patriarch's residence was canceled and postponed.

In Zhang Ling's opinion, this was a way to vent her anger on the neighbors.

Little did he know that she had made such a small pattern of decisions.

The first person to object was probably her father.

However, Zhang Ling's decision has not yet been announced.

Xiaodouzi's voice rang in Zhang Ling's ears.

"Mom, Mom, look at Aunt Wu Man, she is a big liar."

Wu Man asked a little aggrievedly:

"Why did I lie to others?"

Xiaodouzi glanced at Wu Man angrily and continued to say to Zhang Ling:

"Aunt Wu Man promised that Aunt Yan Yuan would definitely come. But Xiaodouzi looked around but couldn't find Aunt Yan Yuan. She is lying!"

At this time, some neighborhood elders also spoke:

"Yes! Today is such an important day. It would be shameful if Yan Yuan didn't come. After all, you sisters are good friends who grew up together."

A neighbor said:

"That's not right! I clearly saw Yan Yuan taking a taxi and leaving before me. I'm already here. How could she not come yet?"

Another neighbor continued:

"No! Zhang Ling, please call and ask immediately. Did Yan Yuan have an accident on the road?"

After listening to everyone's words.

A bad feeling emerged from Zhang Ling's heart.

She took out her cell phone with anxiety and prepared to call Yan Yuan.

at this time.

What did Shangguan Aoxue see?

He stepped out from the ranks of nobles who despised Zhang Ling's family and considered themselves unattainable.

Within a few steps, he stood next to Zhang Ling and said with a smile:

"Zhang Ling, this is your fault."

Zhang Ling looked at Shangguan Aoxue with some displeasure and said:

"What do you mean?"

Shangguan Aoxue explained with a smile:

"You and Brother Xiang's engagement banquet is coming soon, how can you let so many guests stand outside? Quick, let all the elders go in first..."

Shangguan Aoxue's attitude changed.

For a moment, Zhang Ling almost lost her ability.

When I heard someone in the crowd jump out and praise Shangguan Aoxue for his generosity and decency.

Only then did Zhang Ling understand Shangguan Aoxue's intention.

It turned out that this woman wanted to use this method to prove that she was more suitable to become the eldest wife of the Li family.

Zhang Ling has no intention of playing tricks with Shangguan Aoxue now.

To be honest, Shangguan Aoxue really wanted to be the eldest wife of the Li family.

But at this time, Zhang Ling didn't have any thoughts.

Now she just wants to call to confirm if Yan Yuan is safe?

So he gave Shangguan Aoxue the word "go away" mercilessly.

It is precisely because of this word "go".

Members of the Li family, as well as guests who considered themselves noble, began to accuse Li Xiang of being blind.

Leave Shangguan Aoxue, who is knowledgeable and sensible, alone.

She had to choose a country and rude girl like Zhang Ling.

If you enter the Li family's door.

That would be tarnishing the noble lintel of the Li family.

Shangguan Aoxue felt happy listening to those melodies that were pleasant to her ears.

He turned around specifically to see Zhang Ling's humble and bitter cheeks.

However, Shangguan Aoxue was disappointed!

She didn't see the angry expression on Zhang Ling's face.

Instead, Zhang Ling kept dialing the phone with a worried look on her face.

Yuan Tianzhen really thought that Zhang Ling could not handle the current situation.

She wanted to call Li Xiang to come out and support her.

Never thought about it!

Shangguan Aoxue saw that what was displayed on the screen of Zhang Ling's mobile phone was not Li Xiang's name.

But Yan Yuan!

Based on Shangguan Aoxue’s thinking mode.

I really can’t figure out why Zhang Ling didn’t contact Li Xiang for help at this time?

What confused Shangguan Aoxue even more was Li Pan's reaction.

Li Pan unexpectedly stood up this time and angrily scolded Zhang Ling for those unreasonable bastards.

It is said that these people only have the word profit in their eyes.

How do you understand that the main difference between humans and animals is that humans have feelings.

Family affection, friendship, love, etc., in the eyes of those bastards, can all be converted into interests that can be realized.

In Zhang Ling's eyes, no matter what interests are, they are inferior to the feelings between people.

The Li family pursues ultimate interests.

We have long been indifferent to the power of family ties that can strengthen family cohesion.

Zhang Ling's behavior not only did not disgrace the lintel of the Li family.

On the contrary, it adds luster to the lintel of the Li family.

Li Pan's words silenced many thoughtful nobles present.

Of course, that includes the cunning old patriarch.

suddenly!

A sudden round of applause cut through the noisy night sky.

Then Li Xiang appeared in everyone's sight with a smile on his face.

He glanced at Zhang Ling in the distance.

He gave me a reassuring look.

Shangguan Aoxue saw it.

Feeling aggrieved, he stepped forward and greeted Li Xiang warmly.

Li Xiang walked straight towards Li Pan without even looking at Shangguan Aoxue.

Shangguan Aoxue was so angry that she stamped her feet on the spot when she was ignored.

When Li Xiang stood next to Li Pan, put a hand on the other person's shoulder, looked at him with a pair of affirmative eyes and shouted "ok" three times.

Then, he said sincerely "thank you" to Li Pan.

It was thanks to Li Pan that he protected Zhang Ling for him during his absence.

He then looked at the old patriarch in the distance, bowed respectfully and said loudly:

"Grandpa Patriarch, I think you are interested in Zhang Ling, your granddaughter-in-law. Just as Li Pan said, you are interested in Zhang Ling's precious qualities that can make the family more cohesive."

Li wondered about this somewhat chaotic scene.

I'm afraid only the old patriarch can stand up and calm things down.

That's why he spoke and pushed the old patriarch to the forefront.

Everyone present thought that the reason why Li Xiang chose to marry Zhang Ling was the intention of the old patriarch.

The old patriarch kept a kind smile.

There is an aura of dominating the world.

He glanced around at the looks cast by the many guests.

The discussion on the spot stopped for an instant.

It seemed that everyone was expecting the old patriarch to give a clear explanation.

Especially Shangguan Aoxue needs this explanation the most.

Because I learned from Li Xi that the old patriarch wanted her to be the new patriarch’s wife.

Now I know it from Li Xiang’s mouth.

All this was planned by the old patriarch.

Obviously there is a clear discrepancy with Li Xi's statement.

I saw the old patriarch holding a civilization stick in his hand and slowly taking two steps forward and stopping.

The surrounding environment has been extremely quiet.

The old patriarch's eyes held a hint of murderous intent that was not easily noticed. He looked at Li Xiang and nodded with a smile:

"That's right! What Li wanted to say is right! This is indeed the main reason why I fall in love with Zhang Ling, my granddaughter-in-law."

The old patriarch understands that a family will prosper forever.

Cohesion among family members is crucial.

If he denies Li Xiang.

On the one hand, it is likely that he, the old patriarch, is not as discerning as Li Xiang, thus damaging his prestige in the family;

On the other hand, he is also likely to be accused by family members. He, the old patriarch, abandoned his official position for personal reasons and only pampered Li Xi.

The old patriarch didn't want such a disadvantageous situation to happen to him.

So I had no choice but to admit Li Xiang's statement in public.

Shangguan Aoxue always thought that she was much smarter than Li Xi.

Because the old patriarch just answered clearly.

Only then did he realize that he had been tricked by Li Xi, a dude.

She took a few steps towards Li Xi excitedly. There was an air of vowing to make Li Xi look good.

But after hearing many people who are good at flattering others praise the old patriarch for his foresight.

Only then did she understand.

She was just a pawn used by the old patriarch to gain a good reputation.

She knew more clearly that she was not qualified to come forward to ask for any justice.

If she really rushed to Li Xi.

It's just to make others laugh.

So she stopped rushing towards Li Xi.

Her emotions were pushed to the brink of collapse.

Li Pan has been paying attention to Shangguan Aoxue's every reaction.

She was worried that Shangguan Aoxue would lose control of her emotions and anger the old patriarch.

He also knew that Shangguan Aoxue needed a warm hug most.

So Li Pan stepped forward without hesitation and held Shangguan Aoxue in his arms.

Shangguan Aoxue took advantage of Li Pan's strong body for cover.

Wiping away tears heartily.

Release the endless grievances in your heart.

Zhang Ling, the grandson-in-law of the Li family, has the approval of the old patriarch.

Those who had previously stood against Zhang Ling and accused her immediately switched sides and began to say flattering words.

This change in the atmosphere of the scene.

Zhang Ling also forgot to continue calling Yan Yuan for a while.

Instead, enjoy it with an attitude of enjoyment.

Li Xiang seemed to have already known that Yan Yuan had an accident.

So he let Zhang Ling cuddle up beside him and whispered in his ear:

"Don't worry! She'll be fine as long as I'm here."

Zhang Ling really felt a lot more at ease because of the three words "I'm here."

She really believes that as long as Li Xiang is by her side.

Then all the misfortunes that happened to her will go smoothly.

It was also because of these three words that the resistance she had just felt towards Li Xiang disappeared.

Zhang Ling is accompanied by Li Xiang.

She has enough confidence in her heart.

Unconsciously obeying Li Xiang's wishes and walked towards the old patriarch.

To be precise, he walked towards the old patriarch accompanied by many neighbors, relatives and friends.

The momentum felt like millions of soldiers besieging the palace and forcing them to retreat.

If it weren't for the old patriarch, he would have been used to all kinds of big scenes.

It is impossible to still stand steadily at the door waiting for their arrival.

Stand in front of the old patriarch.

Zhang Ling followed Li Xiang and saluted the old patriarch.

The old patriarch said with dignity:

"Now that we're here and it's almost time, let's go in together."

Li Xiang did not obey the old patriarch's wishes and stay put.

He had already turned around and walked two steps before he realized it and turned back to question:

"Li Xiang, what do you mean?"

Li Xiang replied with a serious face:

"Grandpa, the patriarch, someone openly robbed the guests invited by my Li family. This kind of thing happened that harmed the face of my Li family. I, the patriarch, have failed in my responsibility!"

This also indirectly undermines the majesty of the old patriarch.

After all, the engagement banquet was held in the old patriarch's mansion.

The personal safety of invited guests cannot be guaranteed.

The old patriarch's face was also dull.

The old patriarch looked at the old housekeeper beside him in disbelief and asked:

"Is this all true?"

The old housekeeper quickly stepped forward respectfully and explained the fact that Yan Yuan was not here.

But he said he had sent people to check the specific situation.

I believe you will receive the verification results soon.

And she confidently reassured Zhang Ling that she didn't have to worry.

He will definitely bring Yan Yuan to the engagement party.

He even suggested Zhang Ling not to miss the auspicious time of the engagement party.

The old housekeeper's suggestion was naturally in line with the old patriarch's wishes.

So the old patriarch looked at Zhang Ling expectantly.

But Li Xiang whispered in her ear:

"Please follow your heart and make bold decisions. No matter what decision you make..."

He stopped here.

He gave Zhang Ling a wink.

Then I looked around at the neighbors, relatives and friends around Zhang Ling.

His eyes returned to Zhang Ling and continued:

"Please believe that I and they will always be on your side."

This is telling Zhang Ling.

If she was worried about Yan Yuan's safety.

It’s okay if you don’t want to continue the engagement party.

This is obviously a feeling of pampering to the extreme.

At this time, Qi Diaozhe, who was standing in the crowd, couldn't bear it.

Can't stand Li Xiang whispering to Zhang Ling in front of everyone.

It was even more comical to take the initiative to stand up.

He said that he wanted to educate Zhang Ling and Zhang Ling on behalf of the old patriarch about their disrespect for their elders.

Unexpectedly, Qi Diaozhe was stopped by the old patriarch before he officially started speaking out.

Qi Diaozhe really wanted to ask the old patriarch what he meant?

I think he did it for the old patriarch’s prestige and dignity.

But the old housekeeper was deeply impressed by the old patriarch’s thoughts.

The messenger sent Qi Diaozhe into the living room of the mansion first.

Little did he know that Qi Diaozhe's behavior was nothing more than cleverness in a small way to the old patriarch.

If you don't do it right, it will ruin the strategic layout of the old patriarch.

At this time, the old patriarch walked to Zhang Ling with staggering steps.

With a kind face, he took Zhang Ling's hand and comforted her:

"Zhang Ling, don't take Master Qi's unreasonable remarks to heart. Remember! You are the wife of the patriarch of my Li family. Naturally, you have some privileges."

While speaking, the old patriarch glanced seriously at the elders of the Li family not far away.

Then, he put on a friendly face and said to Zhang Ling:

"Privilege means that old guys like me have to compromise when necessary."

The old patriarch's words seemed to be sending a message to Zhang Ling.

Tonight's engagement party can be canceled or postponed.

The Li family only needs the old patriarch to stand here.

Those old guys who just pricked Zhang Ling and picked on Zhang Ling should also shut up.

Zhang Ling didn't expect it either.

Qi Diaozhe's behavior just now actually earned her the privilege of becoming the patriarch's wife.

She clearly saw the old patriarch saying something.

Many people present cast envious glances at Zhang Ling.

What made Shangguan Aoxue a little desperate was that many people expressed their feelings.

It has become a foregone conclusion that Zhang Ling will become the eldest wife of the Li family.

Shangguan Aoxue could no longer make any waves.

Father Zhang Pengtian saw the situation in front of him.

He knew that it was impossible for Zhang Ling to say another word of rejection.

That’s why he stepped forward to remind the old patriarch:

"Hello, I am Zhang Ling's father. My little daughter is so naughty and can still be loved by her parents. It is really a blessing for my old Zhang family!"

The old patriarch waved his hands and said with a smile:

"My dearest sister, you deserve this kind of treatment. Our Li family is lucky enough to have such a granddaughter-in-law. It is also a blessing for our Li family."

Zhang Pengtian raised his hand and patted Zhang Ling on the shoulder and continued to express his position:

"That's all we have to say. I am here to assure my parents and elders."

"Uh?"

"The girls I teach will definitely understand the general situation, consider the overall situation, be sensible, know how to advance and retreat, and know how to be grateful. They will never embarrass their parents and elders."

The old patriarch responded with a conspiratorial smile, "I know."

Zhang Ling, who was keen, saw the smile of the old patriarch.

What can be done now?

With just a few words from her father, she was instantly put on the spot.

She could only obey her father's wishes.

He also obeyed the wishes of the old patriarch.

Agree to continue the engagement party.

And he led the neighborhood elders slowly towards the old patriarch's mansion.
