Chapter 78 Appease
Tong Taizhe's words from his ancestors made Bai Lei and his wife speechless.They knew that in Rongcheng, the Tong family was a real wealthy family, so many of the rules left by their ancestors were irreversible.In addition, Tong Zheng ruled the family iron-bloodedly and followed the rules. It was not good for them to quarrel with the Tong family in marriage, and let their daughter be wronged in the Tong family in the future.

Therefore, although Tong Taizhe said they were engaged, although they were not very happy, they reluctantly agreed.As long as they are engaged, they have plenty of ways to force Tong Taizhe to marry Bai Liangqiu earlier.

After making up his mind, Bai Lei and Gu Yu discussed the matter of getting engaged. From the point of view of the Bai family, they wanted to make a big splash and let everyone know that the Bai family would marry the Tong family.

However, Tong Taizhe used the precedent of Tong Huaijin's low-key engagement as an excuse, and requested that on the day of the engagement, no one except friends should participate in the engagement ceremony, even Bai Lei and his wife did not have to attend.

Bai Lei's enthusiasm was completely extinguished. They were really passive in this engagement, but thinking of the benefits he would get after the engagement, he swallowed his anger.Tong Taizhe wanted to keep a low profile, so he followed him for the time being, and when the wind "leaked" out, he would not be able to control it.

Bai Liangqiu sat beside her quietly, playing the role of an obedient young lady, when asked her opinion, she sweetly took Tong Taizhe's opinion as the main one.Seeing this, Gu Yu became more and more satisfied with this daughter-in-law.

Bai Liangqiu's goal is to marry Tong Taizhe, she doesn't care about the process, what she cares about is the result.With the engagement, she wants to drive Ye Cheng out of the country, isn't that a matter of minutes?
When discussing the date of engagement, Bai Lei felt aggrieved again. He originally asked someone to check the date. The 28th of this month and the 10th of next month are auspicious days, but Tong Taizhe said that there is no time for these two months, so the engagement date was pushed , it was pushed to mid-September.This is too far from what they imagined, and when they asked what Bai Liangqiu meant, Bai Liangqiu shyly asked his parents to make up his mind.

Bai Lei hates iron but not steel. Bai Liangqiu is very assertive at home, but when she arrives at Tong's house, she becomes a soft persimmon. Even if she marries into Tong's family in the future, how can she be the mistress with such a weak personality?
However, Bai Liangqiu has her own plans. Over the years, she has met Gu Yu more than once. Gu Yu is a very strong woman, and what she likes is a weak daughter-in-law who can make her round and flat.So every time she came to Tong's house, she would deliberately restrain her temper and try her best to cater to Gu Yu.

So at this moment, no matter how big of an opinion she has, she won't mention it.Anyway, marriage is her ultimate goal, as long as the goal is achieved, she doesn't care how tortuous the process is.

The final engagement date was set in late September, Tong Zheng asked Bai Lei and his wife to stay for lunch, Bai Lei evaded a few words, but finally stayed.Mrs. Bai and Gu Yu had a happy chat, and Bai Lei and Tong Zheng were talking about current affairs.

Tong Taizhe raised his wrist to look at the time, got up and went out.Walking to a secluded part of the yard, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.The phone rang, and the other party picked it up in seconds. Hearing Ye Cheng's panting voice, he smiled, "Why are you running in such a hurry?"

Ye Cheng actually thought it was Xiao Yu'er calling, but when she heard Tong Taizhe's voice, she froze for a moment, and said, "Didn't you say you want to answer in seconds?"

"..." Tong Taizhe felt tenderness in his heart, "Ye Cheng, I won't come back for lunch at noon, so don't be lazy, eat well."

"Okay, I got it." Ye Cheng responded, and couldn't find anything to say, and both sides were silent for a while.Tong Taizhe seldom took the initiative to call women. In the past when Bai Liangqiu called him, she would talk nonsense, and he usually hung up impatiently.

But now, he wanted to hear Ye Cheng's voice very much, but she didn't say a word, so he sighed and said without words: "What are you going to have for lunch?"

"I haven't thought of it yet." Ye Cheng didn't know what to eat for lunch. In the United States, she could get enough food and clothing with a hamburger and a glass of milk.But after returning to China, she didn't want to eat hamburgers at all, and she was alone at noon, so she didn't want to make a fuss.

Tong Taizhe frowned, "It's already 11:[-], and I haven't thought about what to eat yet?"

"Well, I was too full in the morning, and I'm not hungry yet."

"That's not okay, think about it."

"You're not here, let me cook noodles, it's convenient and easy."

"No, that's not nutritious. Wait a minute. I'll order takeaway for you. I'll record it while you're eating. When I go back, I'll check if you've eaten well." Tong Taizhe ordered overbearingly.

Ye Cheng: "..."

"Did you hear that?" Tong Taizhe didn't hear her answer, so he asked again.

"I'm dead, I have something to burn paper."

"Ye Cheng!" Tong Taizhe suddenly raised his voice, and he frowned fiercely, "If you dare to say these eight words to me in the future, I will make your life worse than death." He was so angry that even though he knew she was joking, But he couldn't accept such a joke.

Ye Cheng was taken aback, she really didn't expect Tong Taizhe to have such a big reaction, her ears were buzzing, "I know, I won't say it again in the future."

"That's it, hang up." Tong Taizhe was really going to be mad at her, he hung up the phone, still very angry.As soon as he turned around, he saw Bai Liangqiu who was standing behind him at some point. He looked at her indifferently, "When did you come?"

"Just came, grandpa asked me to call you for lunch." Bai Liangqiu had a smile on his face, as if he really just came, and he didn't hear him call at all, and he yelled at Ye Cheng.

There was no unnecessary expression on Tong Taizhejun's face, he walked into the yard, "Let's go."

Bai Liangqiu stood by the side of the road, watching him pass her by, she suddenly hugged his waist from behind, and said aggrievedly: "Tai Zhe, do you hate me?"

Tong Taizhe was startled, "Why do you ask that?"

"I don't know that my father came here to force the marriage. If you hate me because of this, I'll go back and tell my father that we are not engaged. We will talk about it when you want to marry me." Bai Liangqiu pretended to be condescending.

Tong Taizhe pulled her hand away and looked back at her, "Liang Qiu, you have been with me for seven years, I really need to give you an explanation. Don't think about it, go in."

Bai Liangqiu nodded vigorously, "Tai Zhe, thank you."

Tong Taizhe patted her on the shoulder, turned around and walked inside, Bai Liangqiu looked at his back, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.Ye Cheng, I will never let you take Taizhe away, he can only be mine.

After lunch, Bai Lei took his wife and daughter to say goodbye, Bai Liangqiu showed reluctance, after sending them away, Tong Taizhe was called into the study by Tong Zheng.Tong Zheng holds a brush in his hand and is practicing calligraphy.

His handwriting is smooth and flowing, but also has a hidden momentum, and his handwriting is strong on the back of the paper.

Tong Taizhe stood by the desk to help him grind, neither of the grandfather and grandson spoke.Until Tong Zheng finished writing a piece of writing, he put down the pen. He looked at Tong Taizhe with an expression of admiration. Among his grandchildren, Taizhe had the most stable personality and was also the one who could take on major events, "Taizhe, Bai Lei Can't wait, what do you think?"
