Chapter 395 The Qi Family's Confidence
Chapter 395 The Qi Family's Confidence
Following the woman's assertive opening remarks, a familiar-looking figure with an excited expression stepped out from the group.
Before Gan Mingfu could speak to the woman, he looked at the man and was shocked: "Headmaster?"
This person was none other than Fang Molin, the headmaster of Qingshan Academy in Leyuan County.
The once gentle and refined headmaster is now like a dehydrated cabbage, all wilted and lifeless.
Fang Molin looked at his closed-door disciple with a very complicated expression.
did not expect.
Never imagined.
His unfortunate disciple, who was once jilted at the altar, has now become incredibly successful!
From Jinzhou Pass to the Hexi Corridor and then to Heping Pass, the entire area is filled with the legends of General Gan's family.
"Zhengze, your teacher, I am already grateful to have seen you in my lifetime."
"What are you saying, Headmaster? A teacher for a day is a teacher for life. Your teachings to me at Qingshan Academy have benefited me for the rest of my life."
Just as the two were about to start chatting, the woman who had been making up her son-in-law got anxious and pulled her daughter forward to interrupt their reminiscing.
"Son-in-law, don't you remember my Dongyu?"
Gan Mingfu's eyes twitched, and he cupped his hands in a gesture of respect towards Huaiqing Prefecture.
"Madam, are you perhaps suffering from hysteria? My mother-in-law is in Huaiqing Prefecture; you mustn't ruin my reputation."
"Son-in-law, Fu-ge'er, stop joking! Who in Guanzhong doesn't know your name? This marriage can't be faked!"
Qi Dongyu, who had been keeping her head down and dressed as a young married woman, suddenly looked up, staring in disbelief at the somewhat unfamiliar man in front of her.
Did he do it on purpose?
Does he really have absolutely no feelings for me?
It wasn't like this before!
Gan Mingfu's face turned cold, and he said sternly:
"What relationship do I have with you, Madam? Why would I lie to you like this? My wedding is in a month, it's a pity I can't invite you to Huaiqing Prefecture for a celebratory drink."
Afterwards, ignoring the stunned group, he helped Fang Molin into the third courtyard of the Gan residence.
What is the status of the Gan Mansion, a three-courtyard mansion with blue bricks and gray tiles next to the Weiwu General's Mansion, in Ganluchuan?
Gan Qian, the steward of the Gan family, quickly directed several gatekeepers to help Fang Molin's family members carry their luggage and lead the way.
Apart from the Fang family, the rest were naturally unrelated!
Not only should they be unrelated, but that self-righteous fool should be driven far away, preferably not allowed to live in the new city!
How dare they shamelessly acknowledge a son-in-law!
Heaven knows how many ladies in the entire Northwest dream of becoming their master's mother-in-law?
Besides, their patriarch is going to marry a princess!
Tomorrow they will set off to return to the border town.
Having never been so disliked by several servants before, Madam Qi was so angry that her face turned from blue to purple. She pointed at the gate of the Gan residence, glaring at it with eyes wide open, as if she wanted to unleash a shrewish tirade.
Just as she was about to blurt it out, she caught a glimpse of someone from the powerful General's mansion next door asking what had happened.
The men were wearing standard cloth armor, and their right hands were gripping the hilts of the swords at their waists.
The head of the Qi family swallowed his words again.
Before they arrived, the Qi family members were all full of confidence.
Qi Dongyu has taken good care of herself during her two years in Shangdu. Although she has been married before, she has never given birth, and she looks more plump than before.
Such a beautiful young woman would be sought after by many men.
Moreover, the most valuable thing about the Qi family's embroidery workshop is their ancestral embroidery skills.
Marrying your own daughter is like marrying a treasure trove!
In the desolate Kansai region, money is indispensable for developing into a powerful force.
No matter how powerful General Weiwu was, she was still Gan's married aunt.
Gan Mingfu, the centurion, is the true head of the Gan family.
The Gan family has power, and the Qi family has money.
Such a perfect match, even a fool would know which one to choose, right?
have to say.
The Qi family's understanding of the Gan family was too one-sided. Perhaps it was because they had gained a lot of experience in the commercial capital in recent years and made many connections with powerful and influential people, which led them to have an overestimation of their own family's abilities.
Perhaps it was because the Empress Dowager was a living symbol of the Qi family's embroidery tower that it remained standing no matter how chaotic the capital was before.
They really made a fortune.
But good fortune doesn't last forever.
The young empress dowager, in a moment of despair, followed the young emperor in death. Those officials who had previously been very polite to her family's boudoir immediately changed their attitude.
They exploit people in various ways, using extremely insidious methods.
The whole family had no choice but to return to their hometown.
Unexpectedly, Daming Prefecture is no longer the Daming Prefecture of a few years ago!
It became a battleground for warlord conflicts.
Merchants like hers, who have no power or influence but possess enormous wealth, would absolutely not dare to stay in this area.
When Qi's daughter-in-law returned to her parents' home, she happened to hear that her uncle, Fang Molin, had the idea of leading the entire clan to the border to join the army.
When the daughter-in-law mentioned it to her husband's family, it was like a godsend.
The Qi family had to say all sorts of nice things before they were allowed to travel with the Fang family.
At first, I really didn't think that I might have any connection with the Gan family.
Unfortunately, the people of Jinzhou Pass were die-hard fans of General Gan.
As for General Gan, and the various stories about his in-laws and his own family, these people can fabricate all sorts of tales, some true and some false.
Upon hearing this, Fang Molin asked, "Why bother going to Huaiqing Prefecture?"
Surely a disciple who has closed his doors to the world can't just abandon his teacher?
The Qi family members discussed the matter privately over and over again.
Based on their past understanding of Gan Mingfu.
He is definitely a gentleman, and given his fondness for his ex-fiancée, accepting her again shouldn't be a big problem.
Mother Qi had made up her mind.
As long as Gan Mingfu doesn't hold a grudge, she will decide to make the Qi Family Embroidery Building, which she plans to open in the future, her dowry for Dongyu.
result!
As I rushed along, I was met with the devastating news that my prospective son-in-law was about to announce our marriage.
The Qi family did not believe it, and the Qi family was not convinced.
Wanting to use his invincible money magic, he inquired about Gan Mingfu's whereabouts.
Never imagined.
As soon as these words came out.
The innkeeper's eyes, which had just been fixed on the hundred-tael silver note, immediately turned hostile and even summoned his manager.
“I suspect you are spies who have infiltrated Ganluchuan, and you even dared to bribe us to inquire about the Ganluchuan army! Are you leaving on your own, or will I have someone drive you away?”
What?
spy!
Mother Qi was dumbfounded.
The innkeeper ignored the Qi family's explanations and directly brought over a dozen soldiers who drove all twenty-odd members of the Qi family out of the inn.
In the vast new town of Ganluchuan, there were clearly more than a dozen inns, yet there was no place for her family to stay.
Those who are not residents of Ganluchuan New City and have not found lodging before dark will be driven out of the city.
Ever since.
Having lived a life of luxury for years, Qi's mother, who had only suffered some hardships on the road to Guanxi, was so angry that she fainted.
Qi Dongyu, who was ignored by Gan Mingfu from beginning to end, was so ashamed and indignant by the cold ridicule of her two older sisters and sister-in-law that she almost hanged herself.
