Chapter 245: Children's Marriage

They rested in the tavern at night. There was no way around it as Nanluoguxiang had already started to be renovated, so He Yukai notified everyone in the family to go to the tavern, even He Qian and He Yu who were at Zheng Yaoxian's place came. There was only one topic for this family meeting, which was to discuss the marriage.

He Bing and Guan Xiaoguan, He Xiao and Xu Nuan, He Jiang and Guan Lin, as for He Qian and He Yu, He Yukai is not in a hurry, He Yuzhu is reluctant to part with his daughter and is not in a hurry either, only Cai Wenqing and Lou Xiaoe are in a hurry, they are already old maids, how can they not be in a hurry without a partner?

Unfortunately, He Yukai did not support their idea. He Yukai thought there was no need to rush. Girls’ marriage is their own business. It is much better to find someone who likes them than to be forced into a relationship. Marriage is a second life. Didn’t the boys all want to do it themselves?
He knew that He Qian was proud and arrogant, and forcing her would be counterproductive. There was no need for that. His daughter was not unmarried, so why was he in a hurry? Boys were different. If they didn't get married, they would be immature. If they got married early and had children, they would have responsibilities on their shoulders, and they would consider the family in any decision.

After dinner, everyone chatted together. He Yukai looked at He Qian and smiled without any anxiety. Cai Wenqing wanted him to persuade He Qian that it was time to consider the major events in life, but He Yukai did not mean that. He meant to let He Qian and the others decide for themselves.

He Qian is already 27 years old. She learns things from Zheng Yaoxian every day, or learns professional knowledge on her own. She knows He Yukai's expectations for her future better than anyone else, and she is also very interested in finance.

The last time she went to Hong Kong Island, that operation was her first operation so far, but this operation made her feel the power of finance. He Yukai had already told her about the power of financial warfare, and she was looking forward to the opportunity to fight against the international financial giants.

"Ahem, I called you here today just to discuss your marriage. I plan to take He Bing and He Qian to Hong Kong Island after the Chinese New Year. I need to go over there to take a look. He Bing will take over the security company, and He Qian will take over the financial company over there. This is a decision that has been made long ago and cannot be changed!
I have obtained the consent of Grandpa Guan for He Bing's marriage, and you two have also agreed. You don't have to consider the girl's family situation for He Jiang's marriage. Guan Lin has been in our family for such a long time and is a good child. He Xiao... Damao, let me ask directly, do you have any objections?"

He Yukai specifically called Xu Damao and his wife over today just to talk about this matter. He Xiao and Xu Nuan have been working in He's Catering for a while, and both of them have performed very well. There is no problem for them to run the restaurant business, and they have already grasped the basic routines. Now they just need to run the restaurant step by step.

"What opinions can he have? His opinions are useless, am I right? Sha Mao?"

"Silly Zhu, let me tell you, I originally agreed, but now that you said that, I won't agree anymore!"

Everyone looked at the two of them in silence. They were in their forties, but they still didn't forget to bicker. They had been bickering for their entire lives. Now that it came to their child's marriage, they started fighting again.

"Hey, I see I gave you face. Do you feel like you've forgotten how it feels to be dominated by me now that I've gotten a good temper?"

"Hey, we live in a society ruled by law now. I'm not afraid of you messing around. Do you have the guts to show me the behavior you had in the early 1950s? I can really send you to jail. At worst, after we get you wet, He Xiao and Xiao Nuan will go to the prison to serve you tea. I won't mind!"

Xu Damao looked at He Yuzhu complacently. He was not really afraid of what Shazhu would do. To be honest, this was a society ruled by law. He did not notice at all that several women were looking at him with contempt. He Yukai shook his head and smiled bitterly. The younger generations looked at Xu Damao in amazement.

"Hehe, Silly Mao, I knew you were like this. You just said you didn't object to their marriage!"

"Hey, I don't object to you two getting married. I'll send you in and Big Brother will preside over it. It's not a big deal!"

"Shamao, do you feel like the daughter you raised was taken away by our He Xiao?"

"puff"

Xu Huizhen and the others couldn't help it. You want to say He Yuzhu is stupid? He is also very smart. You want to say he is smart? Hearing this, He Xiao's forehead was black.

He pushed me? Then what has he become? You are my father, can you use your brain before speaking? He really wanted to stand up and loudly question him what has he become.

But he didn't have the courage. His father's fighting ability was still not something she could contend with. Testing children in martial arts had become an excuse for the adults in their family to beat their children, and they still felt so at ease and righteous about it.

"Silly Mao, are you speechless? It makes me sad just thinking about it. The girl I raised with so much effort turned out to be my daughter-in-law. How can I justify this? He Xiao, you are a good boy and have done a great job!"

He Xiao smiled bitterly. Although the two had been fighting for a lifetime, he didn't dare to interrupt. Who was he thinking of when he spoke? Xu Damao? What about his biological father? He Yuzhu? What about his future father-in-law?
He looked at Xu Nuan, who was just watching the fun, not noticing that he was in a dilemma. He Xiao rolled his eyes. No one could be trusted. Even if no one came to his rescue, he still had a way. Wasn't that how he had gotten through all these years? That was to pretend not to hear. If someone asked him questions that he couldn't stand, he would pretend not to understand. That would work!
"Silly Zhu, don't be so proud. This is my daughter's own choice. I won't argue with you!"

Xu Damao also knew that he would not gain any advantage if he continued with this matter. To be honest, he felt really uncomfortable in his heart. The daughter he raised could marry anyone else but Sha Zhu's son.

It's not that He Xiao is a bad person. On the contrary, He Xiao is a steady person and treats his daughter very well. He has seen it all these years. The two have been childhood sweethearts. Although there are occasional conflicts, those are just small awkwardnesses between young lovers. Who hasn't been in love?

The awkwardness between the young couple not only does not affect their relationship, but can also promote it. It is a good seasoning. The only thing that makes them dissatisfied is that He Xiao is Sha Zhu's son.

This old guy has brought this up many times over the years, and it always breaks his defense, but he is helpless in the end. He doesn't know what his daughter values ​​about He Xiao. He has tried to communicate with her, but his daughter is determined to marry no one but He Xiao. What else can he do?
Is it because of Sha Zhu's son that he has to break up the couple? He and Sha Zhu were just bickering, but they never had a deep hatred. It's just that he developed this bad habit since he was a child. Now half of his life has passed, and he can't change it even if he wants to.

"Yu Li, you are the one who makes the decisions regarding your family's affairs. Do you have any objections?"

Seeing that the two were still staring at each other, He Yukai couldn't help it and turned to Yu Li and asked, if they continued to procrastinate like this, it would not be over before dawn tonight.

He couldn't figure it out. They were both in their forties, but they would fight each other whenever they met, and they seemed to enjoy it. Their relationship must be pretty good.

He knew that He Yuzhu had prepared a gift for Xu Damao when they went to Hong Kong Island. Almost everyone in the family knew about it. After being exposed, He Yuzhu righteously told everyone that if it wasn't for He Xiao, he would not have been willing to prepare a gift for Xu Damao.

Well, everyone knew what was going on and ignored it. That was the problem between the two of them. He Yuzhu and Xu Damao had never won an argument before, so of course everyone had never lost.

Xu Damao is also such a person. He obviously cannot beat He Yuzhu, but he still can't help provoking him. He only stops after being beaten. If He Yukai hadn't arrived, Xu Damao would probably be alone and trying to find a way to take revenge on He Yuzhu!
"Haha, I have no objection!"

Yu Li is a smart person. She understood He Yukai's thoughts and knew that He Yukai didn't want to remain in a stalemate, so she agreed directly. It's time for the children to get married and it can't be delayed any longer.

She knew that Xu Damao just wanted to make He Yuzhu lose face, and he had no objection to their marriage. Their IQs dropped by more than half when they met. He Yuzhu couldn't win an argument with Xu Damao, but since he had this daughter, He Yuzhu seemed to have opened up his Ren and Du meridians, and Xu Damao always lost. Xu Damao told him that this daughter was here to collect debts, and he didn't expect that one day he would be at a disadvantage in bickering with Sha Zhu because of his precious daughter.

This was unimaginable in the past. Yu Li also knew about the "love-hate relationship" between He Yuzhu and Xu Damao. Sometimes it seemed that their bickering was very festive, like a crosstalk performance, and sometimes it seemed that they were just childish. No matter what the occasion, they would start a fight and they didn't act like elders at all.

"Okay, then it's settled. Find a time to get the marriage certificate. As for the wedding, after the house is renovated, find an auspicious day and hold it in a private restaurant!"

He Yukai made the final decision. Now, unlike before, one still has to find a good day to get married so that everyone can be happy. If someone had dared to say that they wanted to find an auspicious day before, they might have been reported by someone. It’s funny to think about it.

When they got married, they just picked a random date to get married, mostly when they were resting and everyone was sleepy. Later, when Liu Guangfu and his family got married, they just got the marriage certificate and had a meal at home, but they didn't dare to organize a big event.

Now that it has come to his son's care, he is not so strict. He just needs to choose an auspicious day and hold the wedding in a lively manner.

This is the first time that Private Kitchen has held a wedding. Generally, we accept reservations directly. It is no problem to hold a wedding at home, and we still have to invite some old friends.

The wedding was decided, and he also needed to go to Hong Kong Island. There would be a lot of things that could be done there next year. It would mainly be up to He Qian to practice on her own, and he would watch from the side. Although he didn't understand those things, his greatest golden finger was foresight. At critical moments, he could still provide He Qian with certain reference plans.

"Da Mao, do you have any objections?"

Everyone nodded, except Xu Damao, who was silent. He Yukai looked at Xu Damao with amusement. The guy was staring at He Yuzhu and didn't notice that the decision had already been made.

"Ah, brother, what's wrong?"

He Yukai held his forehead and looked at Xu Damao speechlessly. He had been talking for a long time, but this guy didn't listen at all?
"I say, the matter between He Xiao and Xu Nuan has been settled. This time I decided to ask your wife for her opinion. If you have any opinions, you can raise them!"

"Brother, you have already made up your mind. Is it still useful for me to raise any opinions? My wife is the boss of my family. As long as she has no objection, of course I have no objection!"

Yu Li blushed as she looked at Xu Damao. When did she always make the decisions about family matters? Although she was afraid that Xu Damao would have money and mess around with other women, she kept a tight control on the family's money, but she wasn't that overbearing!
"Haha, Xiao Nuan, call me dad for Xu Damao to hear!"

"That won't do. You have to pay a fee to change your name if you call me dad. You can't break the rules!"

Xu Damao quickly tried to stop her. He felt that if Xu Nuan called Sha Zhu dad, he would be heartbroken!
"Change your words fee? Do you think I'm short of change your words fee? Wife, give me the change your words fee!"

"Okay, Xiao Nuan, this is my family heirloom bracelet. My mother gave it to me when I made the bid. Now I'm giving it to you. It's considered a family heirloom!"

"Thank you, Aunt Lou!"

"Well, still call me Auntie Lou?"

"mom!"

Xu Nuan called out "Mom" in a low voice, turned around and threw herself into Yu Li's arms, nodding her head again and again, looking very embarrassed. She was indeed very embarrassed in front of so many people.

Cai Wenqing was also a smart person. He went over and gave Guan Xiaoguan and Guan Lin each a bracelet, which he could tell was made of good material. He then hugged them both in his arms.

Guan Xiaoguan's mother is abroad, and Guan Lin's mother is also gone. It must be uncomfortable for the two to see such a scene. There is no comparison and no harm. Xu Nuan's mother is by their side, but they don't have that!

He Yukai looked at this scene with a smile. Isn’t this what expectation looks like?

He came from a later generation and was genuinely tired of that kind of family relationship. His parents were from the countryside. The new daughter-in-law disliked her mother-in-law after she came home. The mother-in-law couldn't stand it and kept nagging in front of her son. In the end, the man was the one who was caught in the middle of both sides. Thinking of his mother, it would be difficult to deal with his daughter-in-law, and if things went wrong, there would be a fight. Thinking of his daughter-in-law, it was not easy for his mother to raise him with all the hardship.

This is why men are so tired. Not only do they have to work hard to maintain the family's daily expenses, they also have to find ways to coordinate relationships at home. For the sake of family harmony, they have no choice but to suffer from both ends.

Women are different. Sometimes they can be a little bit temperamental and spend money lavishly. If there is no money at home, they will say that men are incompetent. This is the situation in later generations.

How many festivals are there every year? The bullshit "Silver Valentine's Day" is a holiday that capital creates for profit. If a man doesn't transfer money to a woman on a holiday, it means he doesn't love her. Aren't men and women equal? ​​Where can you go to make sense? Silver Valentine's Day on July 7 is over, and there is Chinese Valentine's Day next month.

Does anyone care about the pressure on men? No one cares. In the future, men are women's "cash machines" and now women are men's good wives.

He Yukai has always pursued a harmonious family. How nice it would be if everyone was happy together? He is very satisfied. He wants to lay a solid foundation, let the children have their own careers, and men and women work together to make the company bigger and stronger. Then his life will not be in vain.

"He Qian, He Yu, when will you two bring a partner back for us to see? Look at you two, you still don't even have a partner. You're not bad looking, so why can't you find a partner?"

When He Qian and He Yu were looking at the few people with a smile, Cai Wenqing's voice was heard and the smiles on their faces froze.
