Chapter 668: Chapter 668: I Will Decide for You Chapter 668: Chapter 668: I Will Decide for You âThe Xia Family is really out of line, arenât they?â
Upon hearing Liu Qingyangâs words, Feng Wuchen was stunned, having never heard of such an absurd matter.
âTo marry a wife without welcoming her, who would marry off? To marry without holding a banquet, arenât they afraid of others mocking the Xia Family for being stingy?â Feng Wuchen shook his head, truly helpless.
âThe Grand Commander is absolutely right. If it werenât for Liumeier being pregnant, I would have never agreed to this marriage!â the elder lamented angrily, his old face looking very unsightly.
Xia Yuâs remarks had already brought shame upon the Liu Family.
âXia Yun is too spineless, isnât he? He canât even decide for the woman he loves.â Feng Wuchen shook his head helplessly, and it was no wonder that everyone was so indignant.
The actions of the Xia Family, Feng Wuchen found them much too excessive.
âBig Brother Feng, we absolutely cannot allow Liumeier to be wronged!â Liu Qingyang said angrily.
âThatâs right! Hall Master, letâs go to the Xia Family right now!â Leng Mucheng and the others responded in succession, ready to teach the Xia Family a lesson.
âGrand Commander, we must not use force in this matter,â pleaded the Family Head of the Liu Family hastily.
âI know.â Feng Wuchen nodded and smiled, âWe can only deliver her ourselves.â
âWhat? We are to deliver her ourselves?â Upon hearing Feng Wuchenâs words, Liu Qingyang and the others were shocked and looked at Feng Wuchen in disbelief.
Miao Qingqing asked in astonishment, âBig Brother Feng, is that correct? If we deliver her, will Liumeier still have any status in the Xia Family? Iâm afraid even the servants would dare to bully her then!â
âIsnât there Xia Yun to protect Liumeier? Although that kid is a bit weak, at least he wouldnât bully Liumeier, right?â Feng Wuchen spread his hands.
âTeacher, you can tolerate such bullying from the Xia Family?â Zhang Junlan asked, dumbfounded, feeling that this didnât seem like Feng Wuchenâs usual style.
âThis is the Liu Familyâs affair, Uncle Liu has made a decision, and naturally, he has his reasons,â Feng Wuchen shrugged. He then added, âHowever, if we are to deliver her, we must do it grandly, right? If the Xia Family isnât afraid of losing face, the Liu Family canât afford to lose face either, can they?â
âThe Grand Commander speaks with great wisdom.â The leaders of various powers all nodded in agreement.
The Xia Familyâs refusal to welcome the bride and not holding a banquet would only embarrass them.
If the Liu Family had to personally deliver the bride, they must do it with grandeur. Otherwise, by sending the bride over, wouldnât it be inviting ridicule that the Liu Family has no self-respect? Wouldnât it be inviting ridicule that the Liu Family was trying to marry above their station?
Hearing Feng Wuchenâs reasoning, Liu Qingyang and the others also felt it made sense.
âBig Brother Feng, what do you plan to do?â Liu Qingyang asked curiously.
âWhat else can we do? Just do as your father said, only we will make it a bit more splendid,â Feng Wuchen shrugged.
âBig Brother Feng, doing this, might the Xia Family dislike me?â Liumeier asked worriedly.
Feng Wuchen smiled slightly and said, âI donât think so, donât worry. I will make the decision for you in this matter. Uncle Liu, Elder, you donât need to worry too much either.â
The Family Head and the elder of the Liu Family both nodded slightly, feeling much relieved in their hearts.
âUncle Liu, is there anything left to eat? Iâm almost starving,â Feng Wuchen turned to the Family Head and asked.
âYes, yes, yes!â The Family Head of the Liu Family laughed happily, Feng Wuchenâs presence was definitely an honor for the Liu Family.
The Family Head warmly hosted the many guests, and the banquet continued.
Although Xia Yuâs remarks had made the Liu Family lose face entirely, the leaders of various powers present didnât say much.
The banquet began, and Feng Wuchen glanced over the crowd, asking, âQingyang, all the brothers from Sky Pavilion are here; didnât you invite Duan Henxi and Su Lieyang?â
Liu Qingyang shook his head slightly and said, âNo, my father and the senior elder said itâs not a marriage, so thereâs no need to make it too grand. I also didnât mention it to Duan Henxi; he just happened not to be at Sky Pavilion.â
âThe Liu family has only invited people from Luan Tian City and the nearby forces,â Zhang Junlan added.
âNo wonder the Xia family is so bold, not taking the Liu family seriously. Seems like the Xia family doesnât realize that the Liu family is not what it used to be,â Feng Wuchen nodded. If Duan Henxi were here, even with ten thousand guts, the Xia family wouldnât dare to bully like this.
The Xia family was not well-informed about the Liu family and even less so about Liu Qingyang; they only knew that the Liu family was a clan from Yunzhouâs Luan Tian City.
If the Xia family knew about the relationship between Liu Qingyang, the eldest son of the Liu family, and Feng Wuchen, perhaps even the head of the Xia family would have to personally come and seek a marriage alliance!
âBrother Feng, do you really intend to follow my fatherâs words and send Liumeier to the Xia family?â Liu Qingyang asked, still feeling that it wasnât appropriate.
âDonât worry, weâll talk after weâve eaten. Xiao Xiao, Qingqing, go ahead and eat,â Feng Wuchen said with a smile, busying himself with eating his meat.
How could Feng Wuchen stand idly by when the Xia family was looking down on the Liu family so contemptuously?
After they had eaten their fill, Feng Wuchen gave Liu Qingyang and the others a series of orders.
The orders Feng Wuchen gave left Liu Qingyang and Leng Mucheng thrilled to the core.
âŠ
Imperial Capital, Xia family.
âDad, Mom, how can you do this? Without a proper marriage and no banquet, can it even be considered a marriage? How much would that wrong Liumeier?â Xia Yun voiced his extreme dissatisfaction in the grand hall of the Xia family.
âHumph! Shut your mouth!â the head of the Xia family rebuked, âA mere Liu family dares to aspire to our Xia familyâs level? Liumeier is not worthy! If it werenât for your insistence on marrying her, I would never allow her to take even half a step into the Xia family!â
âYunâer, youâre not young anymore, how do you still not understand? The granddaughter of the senior elder of the insignificant Liu family, is she worthy of you?â Lady Xia also chided.
Clearly, they didnât take the Liu family seriously at all, looking down on them from the bottom of their hearts.
âI donât care, I just like Liumeier!â Xia Yun insisted, âIf you wonât welcome her, Iâll go myself!â
âYou dare!â the Xia family head bellowed, a terrible aura bursting forth, immediately silencing Xia Yun.
The Xia family head shouted furiously, âMarrying Liumeier is already a disgrace to our Xia family; do you want to shame us even further?â
âYou feel itâs a disgrace, I donât!â Xia Yun snapped back.
âYou!â The Xia family head became furious, his face darkening as he thundered, âRascal! Would you believe that I might break your legs?â
âYunâer, how can you talk to your father like that?â Lady Xia scolded.
âDad, Mom, I donât care whether you look down on the Liu family or not; I only like Liumeier, and I wonât let her be wronged!â Xia Yun, suppressing his fright, exclaimed, then ran out of the grand hall.
âThis is outrageous!â The Xia family head was fuming with rage, grinding his teeth as he said, âThis damn boy is getting out of line! Heâs going to be the death of me!â
âAh, but Liumeier is not so bad. Even though the Liu family is a minor clan, as long as Yunâer likes her, thatâs all that matters,â Lady Xia sighed.
âHusband, even if we donât welcome her, we should at least hold a banquet and invite some people, right? Otherwise, what will we say when others ask about it in the future?â Lady Xia proposed.
After a momentâs contemplation with a troubled expression, the Xia family head said, âFine, fine. Weâll invite the Bai family, Ni family, and some other powerful forces; letâs leave out the royal family. I cannot afford to lose that much face.â
