Li Jiahui managed to deal with important matters with great difficulty, and rushed to the hotel, but it was still a bit late.
Following the waiter who led the way, just as he walked slowly into the hall, he saw Mr. Huo on the stage announcing the news that the two families were getting engaged.
His heart tightened all of a sudden: Just¡ª¡ªin such a hurry? The parties did not agree, are you not afraid of making jokes?
After thinking about it, I don't believe it: he knows the temperament of Grandpa and Mr. Huo, so logically they wouldn't be so reckless?
Concerned about it, Li Jiahui slowed down, wanting to hear what Mr. Huo had to say.
Mr. Huo deliberately slowed down his speech on stage, fixed his eyes on Li Jiahui who was slowly walking towards the stage, and wondered why Jin wanted him to make a fuss.
Is it because I have been too leisurely for a long time and want to toss?
Still, do you want to see Li Jiahui step forward to stop, and then be told that it is not his marriage?
Mr. Huo didn't know what kind of mentality he was in. The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he looked around at the people who were looking at him expectantly.
He continued to speak slowly: "What I want to announce is that my granddaughter is going to marry Old Man Li's grandson. Today is not only my birthday banquet, but also the engagement banquet of the two juniors!"
There was an uproar among the crowd: It's actually an engagement banquet? so suddenly?
Some people started to have a headache, as if the gifts they gave were not enough!
Seeing that Li Jiahui was still walking slowly, Mr. Huo was not in a hurry.
Cooperating with his speed, he said slowly: "The engagement banquet was also decided suddenly, because the two young ones like each other, and we elders wanted to follow their wishes. It's rare that everyone is here today, so we simply took this opportunity. Good things come in pairs, and two things are done together.¡±
Mr. Huo was finally satisfied to see that Li Jiahui's face changed
Grandpa Li finally noticed that his old friend's eyes had been staring at the aisle in front of him all the time, and following his eyes strangely, he suddenly found his grandson with a strange expression
Mr. Li's heart skipped a beat: Not good! Jiahui didn't know that the groom-to-be had changed to Jiashun!
At this time, Mr. Li suddenly became very agile, and ran over to grab his grandson: "Jiahui, you are here! Go and sit down!"
Li Jiahui stayed where he was, looking at his grandfather with deep eyes.
Old man Li pulled his grandson, but he couldn't move! Reluctantly, she approached his ear and said, "Don't worry, it's not you."
Li Jiahui was taken aback: What do you mean?
There were many people around and it was a bit noisy. Li Jiahui felt that he was hallucinating.
Old man Li anxiously pulled him away: "Oh, let's go, it's nothing to do with you anyway."
Li Jiahui was a little confused: Why doesn't it have anything to do with him?
Li Jiahui, who was confused, was pulled to the position by his grandfather and pressed down.
Li Wenhua hurriedly asked him: "Where did you go? Why can't you get through the phone?"
"Oh. I have something to do today, and the phone is turned off." Li Jiahui didn't say much.
Mr. Huo on the stage, seeing that Li Jiahui was dragged away by his old friend, was a little disappointed: he couldn't continue to play with him.
He adjusted his mentality and looked straight ahead: "The ones who will be engaged today are my granddaughter Huoxianglin and the Li family's grandson Li Jiashun."
Everyone was in an uproar!
It is not a secret that Huoxianglin likes Li Jiahui, basically everyone in the circle knows it. I also know that the two families intend to accept this marriage.
However, why was the prospective groom replaced by Li Jiashun? The younger brother stole the older brother's marriage? There is an inside story
The faces of the guests were full of curiosity, and their psychology of gossip was turbulent. One by one, they couldn't help but keep looking at the table in Li's house.
Li Jiahui looked at Li Jiashun opposite him in surprise, who looked at him bitterly and smiled.
He suddenly turned his head to look at his father beside him: "What's going on?"
Li Wenhua approached his son and said: "A few days ago, Mr. Huo came to ask for an engagement, but your mother and I refused, and then out of nowhere, the two old men made an appointment for Jiashun's marriage."
He still clearly remembers his silly expression that day: Isn't it too scary? Actually sold Jiashun like this?
Seeing his son's unbelievable expression, Li Wenhua nodded solemnly.
"Ha" Li Jiahui was a little speechless: "So they only need a marriage between the two, right? It doesn't matter who is with whom?"
What age is it? Is it still new to have an arranged marriage like this? Didn't grandpa always advocate freedom of marriage?
"Ahem, but" Li Wenhua hesitatedYu Zhuo said: "Master Huo himself said that he likes Jiashunafter we rejected him."
He felt that these were all excuses, and Mr. Huo must have made this move because he felt that it would be embarrassing to be rejected by his son.
He didn't know Huoxianglin either, but seeing Mr. Huo in such a hurry, he probably didn't like it. If it's a good girl, a family like the Huo family would already have countless suitors.
Li Jiahui looked at Li Jiashun on the opposite side, feeling a little bitter in his heart: I didn't expect my indecisiveness to bring my brother into such an embarrassing state.
Huoxianglin gave him a very bad impression these two days, she was a jealous and domineering woman. If such a woman marries home, her life will not be peaceful.
What's more, with the support of Mr. Huo, and the cousin himself is not very confident, she will only become more lawless.
Things are already like this, Li Jiahui can only think of ways to make up for it afterwards.
I didn't expect that I was busy with my personal affairs these few days, and unintentionally caused such a big trouble for my cousin! Li Jiahui was a little helpless.
Soon, Li Jiashun was called to the stage to hold an engagement ceremony with Huoxianglin.
The two stepped forward from the backstage and stood together.
Mr. Huo's old subordinates acted as master of ceremonies and spoke many blessings to them. Another pair of wedding rings were handed over, and the two exchanged each other, and it was done.
Li Jiashun maintained a standard smile throughout the process. And Huoxianglin was not bad, his face was very calm, and he didn't look unhappy at all.
Mr. Huo didn't expect his granddaughter to have no objection, and he was even happier: It seems that the parents still need to take action to suppress it, and children can't be allowed to make trouble.
Old man Li was also happy. He was very worried that Huoxianglin would not be willing. After all, he has always said that he likes his grandson.
Li Jiahui always found it strange that although the two had met several times, they did not have a deep friendship. And every time we meet, Huoxianglin's behavior should be very unpleasant.
Could it be that the cousin likes her?
This woman is not suitable! Li Jiahui was a little anxious.
If the cousin likes her, it will be troublesome!
Huoxianglin and Li Jiashun, who came down from the stage side by side, separated from each other as soon as they left the sight of others, looked at each other and said, "Don't forget the promise!"
Yes, the two of them have made a quick agreement just now: this marriage contract cannot come true, for the sake of the elderly on both sides, they agreed first. Find a way to change it later.
Huoxianglin raised her head and sneered coldly: "That's a beautiful idea! How could this girl forget! Who do you think you are?"
Li Jiashun, who didn't dare to show weakness, immediately became angry: "What are you talking about? You are amazing, why are you so old and no one wants you? Who kept crying and begging Brother Jiahui to come with you?"
Only then did Huo Xianglin realize that he was there when he met Li Jiahui the few times before. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
