However, Qin JianShe was indignant: "Hmph! Sharp-tongued!"
"Forget it, now he’s being stubborn, saying this one is unqualified, that one is unqualified, let’s wait for the annual gathering, I’ll see how embarrassing that boy will be."
The eldest aunt showed a cold smile.
She’s very familiar with the annual gathering.
No connections.
When the guests co to present their gifts.
What a humiliation for that family.
"Indeed, by then, that boy will understand how important connections are."
"Perhaps, when my younger sister was around, there were so connections, but now, with only a useless single seedling like Ye Qingfeng left, who would still send gifts to their family?"
Qin Jianjun said forcefully.
He looked down on Ye Qingfeng greatly.
Especially that arrogant look in Ye Qingfeng’s expression.
"Gifts? At that ti, it’ll be good enough if the Shen Family and Zhu Family don’t give him a hard ti."
The second aunt snorted.
Only the eldest uncle, Qin Jian Country, was faintly looking forward to the annual gathering.
That was the mont to reflect on his years of glory!
After all, in the Qin Family, how many are as outstanding as him.
No need to think.
By then, not only will he have the most congratulations, but the status of the people arriving will also be the most distinguished.
...
After this fruitless effort to denounce Ye Qingfeng.
The Qin Family mbers no longer engage in such thankless tasks.
Everyone’s attention is focused on the Qin Family’s annual gathering in a few days.
...
Three days later, the main residence of the Qin Family located in Mingzhu City’s grand courtyard, was tightly closed.
Leaving only a servant guarding the gate.
anwhile, a hundred miles away, in a small village in the outskirts of Mingzhu City.
Today, it was bustling with unusual excitent.
Though called a village, rows of small buildings were sprouting up.
With red walls, large tiles, and stone paths, Qin Family Village seed like an enormous estate.
However, the ancestral hall of Qin Family Village carried a sense of ancientness.
Those ancient buildings still maintained their original appearance.
Today, the Qin Family’s annual gathering was held here.
Moreover, the entire Mingzhu City was sowhat unsettled because of the Qin Family’s gathering.
If it were just because the Qin Family, a lower-ranked family in the top tier of Mingzhu City.
Then such a commotion wouldn’t occur.
But today, it’s not just the Qin Family’s annual gathering.
It’s also the day of the Qin Family and Shen Family’s marriage alliance.
Qin Yunfei of the Qin Family, engaged to Shen Wudao of the Shen Family.
So not only were the Mingzhu City’s high society mbers.
Even the elites from other cities.
Out of respect for the Shen Family.
Many bigshots would co to congratulate the Qin Family’s gathering.
This was a great opportunity for the Qin Family to increase their strength!
"Bang bang bang!!!"
At this mont, the sound of fireworks exploding continuously echoed in Qin Family Village.
And, the rare sight of luxury cars in Qin Family Village, were lined up in a row at the village entrance.
Among these, it seed that even cars like BMW, considered high-class by ordinary people.
Could only be parked like trash in inconspicuous corners of the village.
Inside the hall of Qin Family Ancestral Hall, wafts of incense were rising.
Those were the candles lit for the tribute.
And the most prominent position in the ancestral hall.
Was where the tablets of the Qin Family Ancestors were placed.
On the tribute table, a whole roast pig was displayed, surrounded by many fruit platters.
At this mont, the elders of Qin Family Village were seated in the most senior position of the Qin Family.
So were even older than Qin Kaigong.
So even older than Qin Kaigong.
Addressed by Qin Kaigong as Third Uncle.
And referred to by so junior mbers of the Qin Family as Third Great Uncle.
This elder, with graying hair, had skin as wrinkled as dried tree bark.
His hands and feet shaky, leaning on a dragon-head walking stick.
Perhaps it was because of the annual gathering, his spirits seed quite lifted.
Old Master Qin Kaigong was holding the Third Great Uncle’s hand, saying sothing.
Qin Ligong was also beside them, chiming in occasionally, creating a very harmonious scene.
This was the liveliest mont for the entire Qin Family.
"Hey! Is that Qin Yun Gui?"
At this ti, the younger generation from Qin Kaigong’s line suddenly found soone formidable among the young generation of the Qin Family.
Soone suddenly exclaid.
The one speaking was Qin Shu.
At this mont, her gaze fell outside the ancestral hall, where soone was chatting rrily with a high-ranking official’s child.
Beside him, stood a follower who seed like a secretary.
This young man, addressed as Qin Yun Gui by Qin Shu, was about the sa age as her and others.
But he seed to have the aura of an elder.
That was the aura gathered from wielding power or holding considerable wealth.
"Qin Yun Gui, I’ve heard he’s quite famous in Heishui City, and now he is said to be the right-hand man of Heishui City’s richest man, Tian Guang."
"He’s even raised quite a few capable people himself. At least a third of the power in Tian Guang’s empire can be credited to Qin Yun Gui."
Qin Feng couldn’t help but speak with envy.
Despite being a playboy, he was still well-inford.
Even though Qin Yun Gui was not developing in Mingzhu City.
His influence had already spread to Mingzhu City.
Even Qin Feng had no choice but to avert his eyes in awe of Qin Yun Gui.
"Brother Qin Yun, in the future, may not be any worse than Qin Yun Gui. After all, when it cos to holding office and power, no matter how capable Qin Yun Gui is, he must be wary."
Qin Yan casually remarked.
However, now she knew that Qin Yun’s current position was still lagging quite a bit.
"That’s still much better than us."
Qin Feng couldn’t help but lant.
At this mont, in this atmosphere.
He actually started to regret his days of indulgence, not making good efforts.
The Qin Family Ancestral Hall was vaguely divided into inner and outer halls.
Also quite symbolically indicating entry into the inner circle.
Those seated in the inner hall were the elders of the Qin Family or the elite younger generation of the Qin Family.
At this ti, Qin Yan and Qingfeng were arranged in the outer hall.
While Qin Yun was placed in the inner hall.
Of course, at this ti Qin Yun Gui seed to have finished his socializing.
Walking with a smile towards a position near the altar in the ancestral hall.
A glance at the seating arrangents clearly showed.
The status hierarchy among the Qin Family mbers.
"Hehe! Brother Qin Feng, aren’t there people doing even worse?"
At that mont, so of the Qin Family’s younger generation couldn’t help but chuckle, pointing at the seats of Ye Qingfeng and Qin Yunfei.
The disdain was all too evident.
And, Ye Qingfeng and Qin Yunfei, were almost seated in the outer hall, in extrely rearward positions.
Even separated by two seats from Qin Feng.
Yet, Ye Qingfeng seed unconcerned, chatting and laughing with Qin Yunfei.
"Heh heh! The fact that the Qin Family gave him a seat in the ancestral halls is quite generous... it’s probably considering the face of the fourth aunt."
Qin Feng couldn’t help but sneer.
The fourth aunt he referred to, was naturally Ye Qingfeng’s mother.
