… …
Tangcheng's mind was filled with thoughts, but it was impossible for Qin Fang to know. He followed behind Tangcheng and walked into the courtyard.
There were really a lot of people from the Chu family who came. In the huge courtyard, people could be seen standing there, chatting in twos and threes.
Some people were talking about research projects, some were discussing the direction of next year's college entrance examination, and some were discussing the next round of business, finance, and so on …
This also proved that the scope of the Chu family's involvement was quite wide. Although they mainly taught and educated people, they were also quite strong in other aspects.
After all, Old Master Chu had many disciples all over the world, and many of them were outstanding. His connections were not ordinary. With a little bit of use, this was a considerable amount of wealth. Coupled with a little bit of intelligence, it would be difficult for the Chu family not to succeed even if they did not want to!
However, the small courtyard was obviously not Qin Fang's destination. Tangcheng greeted the people he knew while leading Qin Fang to the central room of the small building.
There were also a lot of people gathered there, and Qin Fang could vaguely see a very cheerful Tang suit sitting on the main seat. His face was also full of smiles, and his complexion was quite good.
In just a few steps, Qin Fang and Tangcheng had already walked to the door of the central room. Old Master Chu, who was sitting there, seemed to be staring at the door.
"Xiao Qin, you're finally here. This old man has been anxiously waiting …"
As soon as he saw Qin Fang and Tangcheng enter the door, Old Master Chu, who was sitting there, could not sit still. With the help of others, he was about to welcome Qin Fang.
"Old Master Chu, you're too serious …"
Qin Fang did not dare to be negligent. He was a junior, how could he let the elders welcome him like this?
His footsteps were slightly faster, like a phantom. With a few steps, he crossed a distance of five or six meters. Before Old Master Chu could leave the chair, he reached out and supported Old Master Chu. At the same time, his voice was not completely finished.
The people from the Chu family were still a little stunned, especially those who were standing between Qin Fang and Old Master Chu. They only felt a breeze blow by, and found that Qin Fang had already arrived in front of Old Master Chu. Their mouths were wide open, and they could not close it for a long time.
Fortunately, Tangcheng was there to explain to them that Qin Fang was a martial artist, and the kind that was relatively powerful. Only then did they feel relieved.
Although scholars looked down on martial artists, that was a thing of the past. In today's society, it all depended on one's ability. If you practiced martial arts and had the ability, you would still be awesome. Scholars were full of wisdom, but if they couldn't even support themselves, then it was all in vain …
What's more, what was taught in schools now was no longer things like "Zhi Zhi Zhi". Mathematics, theory, and chemistry were not taught in the past, not to mention sports … If one wanted to argue about this, it could also be classified as "martial arts".
After the incident just now, the Chu family, who were already quite interested in Qin Fang, focused more attention on Qin Fang.
"This young man is not bad!
He looks very energetic, and his body is also quite strong … "
"He is indeed not bad, his spirit is also quite good …"
With this, there were naturally some comments. There were many people in the Chu family, so there were naturally many women. This seventh aunt and eighth aunt were the most talkative.
Fortunately, their comments were more biased towards Qin Fang … The old man liked Qin Fang very much, so they naturally loved him as well!
In particular, these people were all quite old. The youngest one was at least 30 years old. In addition, they were all teachers. Naturally, their judgment of people was not as superficial as those women outside who only looked at appearance and clothing.
For people like them, looks were not important. Gigolos were what they despised the most. In their words, they were "very unreliable!"
As for money, the Chu family was a scholarly family and a family of teachers. It was fine as long as they had enough money. In addition, the family also had various industries to support them. They did not care about how much money they had.
This could be seen from the cars parked outside. They were mainly economical and practical. Those flashy brand-name sports cars were almost invisible … This was also influenced by this kind of family education.
After eliminating these two points, in the eyes of these people, Qin Fang was really quite good. There was almost no fault to be found. In addition, the Qin and Chu families were old friends. They looked at Qin Fang in a new light.
Being looked at and discussed like this, even Qin Fang, who was thick-skinned, could not help but cry out in his heart.
It could not be helped. He was a person who practiced martial arts. His five senses were much stronger than ordinary people. Although these people were only whispering, Qin Fang could hear them clearly …
"Good, good … good boy, your skills … are comparable to your grandfather's in the past!"
Those people in the Chu family saw it. Old Man Chu was looking at it face to face, so he naturally saw it more clearly. Supported by Qin Fang, his wrinkled old face smiled like a flower, and his mouth also praised.
"Uh … my grandfather also practiced martial arts?"
Qin Fang was stunned when he heard this. This was obviously something he did not know. He knew very little about his father and grandfather.
"Of course!
If it weren't for your grandfather's good skills, Old Man Tang and I would not have been able to escape … Unfortunately, no matter how good his skills were, he could not escape bullets! "
When Old Man Chu said this, he could not help but feel a little sad.
Although martial arts masters were quite powerful, in the end, they were still mortal. In the face of modern firearms like bullets, the body of a martial artist could not resist.
Take the current Qin Fang for example. His strength was almost invincible under the master level, but in the face of bullets, he was still very afraid. If he was hit in a vital part, it would be useless even if Qin Fang had many buns to protect his life.
"Grandpa Chu …"
Qin Fang also opened his mouth. He wanted to persuade him, but he did not know how to say it.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore!
Let's go … The guests are here, it's time to eat … Xiao Qin, last time we were at Old Man Tang's place, we didn't drink much. Tonight, you have to accompany this old man well!
You have to drink a few more cups too … "
Old Man Chu pulled Qin Fang and was about to go to the restaurant next door. When he spoke, he seemed to be quite excited, as if he really wanted to get drunk with Qin Fang.
"Grandpa Chu, as long as you are happy, I will drink as much as you want …"
Of course, Qin Fang also wanted the old man to be happy. At such an old age, he could only live one day at a time. Only when he was happy, he could live longer. Of course, he followed the old man's words and said.
"This is what you said. When the time comes, you can't go back on your words …"
The smile on Old Man Chu's face became even brighter. He was like a child, as if he could not wait to hook Qin Fang and hang himself for a hundred years …
"I won't go back on my words!"
Qin Fang was naturally very certain. He could be considered as someone who would not get drunk even after a thousand cups. No matter how much he drank, he was not afraid, not to mention that he could cheat.
Thus, Qin Fang helped Old Man Chu to the restaurant. The people of the Chu family also followed in one after another … As soon as they entered the door, Qin Fang saw a super huge dining table. It was five to six meters long and about 1.2 meters wide … It was really different from the square tables and round tables commonly used in Long Province.
He did not know if this dining table was specially customized for tonight's meal. At least in Qin Fang's twenty years of life, he had never seen such a long dining table …
Of course, in some foreign movies, European noble families seemed to use this kind of long dining table … But with so many people in the Chu Family, using this kind of table was more reasonable.
"Xiao Qin, you sit beside this old man …"
Old Man Chu naturally sat on the main seat, and he pulled Qin Fang to sit beside him. The other people of the Chu family also sat down in order. Only the seat on the other side of Old Man Chu, which was the seat opposite Qin Fang, was empty …
Qin Fang was also a little curious, but he was a guest, and his knowledge of the Chu family was limited. He was afraid that it would be rude, so he did not ask too much.
Qin Fang just sat down, and before his butt even warmed up, he saw the beautiful teacher Chu Qianqian walk in from the door. She stretched her neck and looked as if she was looking for someone. Coincidentally, their eyes met again.
However, Qin Fang responded with a smile, but Chu Qianqian rolled her eyes at Qin Fang.
Chu Qianqian was previously outside. She was considered the third generation of the Chu family. Originally, she could only sit outside, but now she walked in.
"Qianqian girl, come come come … Sit beside grandpa!"
The moment he saw Chu Qianqian enter, Old Master Chu's turbid eyes immediately narrowed into a smile. He waved his hand at Chu Qianqian and gestured to the empty seat beside him.
"Grandpa … I'll sit here?"
However, Chu Qianqian was slightly stunned. She looked at Qin Fang who was sitting on the other side of Old Man Chu, and then pointed at her seat and asked in a very soft voice.
"Sit here with grandpa … You've been away for so many years, and grandpa has only seen you a few times. I was just about to have a good talk with you!"
Old Man Chu's attitude was more unyielding, and he immediately muttered in a huff.
"Oh, I'll listen to grandpa, okay?"
Chu Qianqian had no choice. Old Man Chu was old, and his temper had become more like a child. Generally, she had to go along with him. This way, her mood would be better, and she could live longer. Therefore, she could only obediently sit beside Old Man Chu, facing Qin Fang …
"Xiao Qin, let me introduce you. This is the granddaughter of this old man, Chu Qianqian. She just came back from studying abroad and is now a teacher in the capital …"
Once Chu Qianqian sat down, Old Man Chu immediately introduced her to Qin Fang.
"Grandpa Chu, actually, Miss Chu and I already know each other …"
Qin Fang didn't think too much about it. Although he felt that Old Man Chu had the intention to pull strings between him and Chu Qianqian, in his opinion, Chu Qianqian had already misunderstood him as a playboy and was dissatisfied with him. This matter was most likely out of the question, so he didn't care too much.
"So you already know each other …"
Old Man Chu was also slightly stunned. Obviously, he didn't think of this beforehand. However, although he was old, his mind was still relatively active, and he immediately reacted.
"It's even better if you know each other … How is it?
Xiao Qin, my family's Qianqian is pretty, right?
She's not any worse than the little girl in Old Man Tang's house … "
As expected!
Although Qin Fang had already guessed this beforehand, when Old Man Chu said this sentence, Qin Fang couldn't help but be surprised.
"Grandpa Chu, this … Feifei and I are pretty good!"
He knew that he already had a girlfriend, and had already met both sides' parents. This marriage was already set, but he still wanted to force a wife to him. Even if Qin Fang took advantage of it, in front of so many people, Qin Fang still appeared to be quite embarrassed.
"It's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines … The old man was like this back then!"
However, he didn't expect Old Man Chu to be so valiant. In front of so many sons, daughters-in-law, daughters, and son-in-law, he said such bold words. His bearing was really quite impressive.
Of course, this was indeed true.
Qin Fang heard from Tangcheng that the old man used to have one wife and three concubines. However, after the outbreak of war and various disasters, the few wives left the old man one after another. When the laws of Long Province gradually became more complete, the old man was already a lonely old man.
It was also because of the four wives that he gave him five sons and four daughters. Now that they were gradually spreading out, the Chu family became more prosperous.
The old man was talking loudly, but the old man's sons and son-in-law's expressions were quite strange. Although they were already very old, and the youngest was in his fifties, they couldn't help but criticize in their hearts …
"Old man, you're right. You didn't educate us like this in the past …"
Although the old man's mouth was so strong and domineering, his sons were all monogamous. In his words, "they had to abide by the country's laws".
However, in the blink of an eye, when it came to Qin Fang, it became "it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines". It was no wonder their expressions became so strange.
As for the sons-in-law, needless to say, the women of the Chu family were not ordinary valiant. The old man said that, but if they really dared to do anything, this group of women of the Chu family would teach them a lesson …
"This … this … Old man, the country's laws have regulations …"
Qin Fang really didn't know what to say. This old man's valiance was really beyond his expectations, and it made him feel quite embarrassed.
Looking at Chu Qianqian opposite him, she actually put on an indifferent attitude, as if she didn't hear what Old Man Chu and Qin Fang said at all, which made Qin Fang feel even more depressed.
