Su Chen stood up and took a look, and found two figures walking in from the entrance hall. It was Bai Fengxian who came to visit again.

It's only been a few days, why is he here again? Is he still going to talk about the engagement?

Su Chen looked puzzled. After the last exchange, he didn't have a good impression of the old man.

Mr. Bai walked slowly into the courtyard and looked at the spring-filled courtyard. Although it was not wide, it was exquisite and beautiful. All the waste in the courtyard had been cleared away. Except for bamboos and flowers, all the messy things were gone. It was very clean.

, there has been a significant change from the desolation I saw a few days ago.

"It seems that this boy has really changed." Mr. Bai's heart moved. He looked at Su Chen and took a look. Both his energy and spirit were much better than before.

"Mr. Bai, why are you here again?" Su Chen asked.

"No matter how old or young you are, according to your seniority, when you meet, you have to call me Grandpa Bai. It's not too much!" Mr. Bai scolded him. His crutches touched the ground. Although his body was a little stooped, his eyes were shining and not muddy. His face was

He didn't look angry at all.

Su Chen said indifferently: "Based on the friendship from the previous generation, I should indeed be called Grandpa Bai. However, since the Su family declined, you have not thought about the old friendship and took any care of me. This friendship is gone.

, Grandpa Bai’s title is inappropriate!”

This matter had been weighing on Su Chen's heart for a long time. Although it was the former "Su Chen" who suffered the hardship at that time, not him, the Bai family did not intervene and take care of it later, and the marriage was silent, which seemed to indicate regret.

Even after he passed through his soul, he could still feel some of these practices of the harsh world, and he had no good impressions of the Bai family.

If Su Chen didn't have other partners, he would never have contacted Bai Susu through Peng Qingqing to convey the signal of seeking cooperation.

Mr. Bai snorted: "Nonsense, after your father passed away, didn't I send someone to send money to the Bai family? Have you forgotten it? Your father was involved in court disputes and became a criminal.

Sir, who dares to approach openly? Back then, I

I could only send a steward over and give him a few hundred taels of silver as a sign of concern. As the saying goes, we help the emergency but not the poor. You, a dandy, have squandered all your money in the past few years. You have neither the talent to read nor the business acumen. As a result,

My family is so poor, how can I blame others?"

"Have you ever sent money to the Bai family before?" Su Chen was a little surprised and turned around to look at Ling'er.

Yang Ling'er nodded: "Five years ago, once."

"Only once?" Su Chen was stunned, thinking that the Bai family is still a bit stingy!

Mr. Bai said coldly: "These days, apart from your parents who can give you money for free, who can give you money for no reason? Relatives? Friends? It's not that you can't rely on it, but that you don't have that obligation. No one's money falls from the sky.

Yes, you still have to rely on yourself after all!”

After Su Chen heard this, he wanted to retort, but he shook his head helplessly, because this sentence is true, no one has the obligation to give you money! Poor people must be hateful. If your family is poor, you can only

If you can find the reasons within yourself, there is no need to blame others or blame rich friends for not taking money to help you.

"Okay, those old things are in the past and I don't want to mention them anymore. Now Su Chen has changed his mind and is a brand new Su Chen. There is no longer any friendship between us. I don't know why Mr. Bai is here today.

What happened?" Su Chen didn't want to dwell on those past events, who betrayed whom, and who was more reasonable. This is the reality of society.

"Come here and take a look at you. Besides, the prescription you gave me that day was quite effective. I would like to express my gratitude in person!"

Bai Fengxian chuckled. Before he left last time, he was a little disappointed with Su Chen's rejection. However, Su Chen repaid him with kindness and even took the initiative to give him a secret recipe to treat asthma. After he returned, he took it for a few days. As expected, he was relieved and could sleep better.

It was better, which surprised him.

Suddenly, I realized that this boy not only knew some medical skills, but most importantly, he had a pure heart and kind character, which was very valuable. This old man, who was as cunning as a fox, unexpectedly discovered a quality that he lacked in himself.

Why could a young man who was in the whirlpool of difficulties so calmly give him a secret recipe for free? Bai Fengxian went back to think about it for several days and couldn't figure it out.

The biggest characteristic of smart people is that they often think they are smart, and they will consider other people's motives and real thoughts in everything!

When the old fox Bai Feng first figured out that Su Chen's move had no motive and was just a simple act of repaying evil with kindness, he couldn't help but sigh that this young man's character was indeed much better than his own!

Therefore, Bai Fengxian had more expectations for Su Chen. This time, in the name of thanking him in person, he came to see him again, intending to use sugar-coated bullets to win over his grandson-in-law.

"You actually drank it. I thought a cunning and suspicious person like you would just throw it away." Su Chen curled his lips and smiled. Anyway, he didn't have much friendship with the old man of the Bai family, so he spoke straightforwardly.

, no modifications will be made.

Bai Fengxian hummed: "It's not that I can trust you, but I can trust your ancestor's secret recipe!"

This duck has such a tough mouth!

Su Chen stretched out his hand and said: "Since it's effective, there's no need to say thank you. Do you want to give me some money for the consultation? You are the head of the Bai family, you are delicate and expensive, so the money for the consultation should be a hundred and eighty taels."

Bai Fengxian shook his head and said: "Young man, it's so tacky to just talk about money when you open your mouth and shut up! Besides, at that time, you said that we would give each other for free, so why should I give you a consultation fee?"

Su Chen was speechless, this was not only a duck's mouth, but also an iron rooster, never plucking out a hair!

No wonder others say that the more money you make, the stingier you are!

"Then what else can we talk about?" Su Chen didn't want to talk nonsense with this old fox, so he opened the door and asked directly.

"We need to discuss the engagement again." Bai Fengxian said calmly, feeling a little helpless. Two days ago, the Ding family sent someone to propose to Bai Susu. Yin Zhengxiong, the maternal uncle of Erlang of the Ding family, was the governor stationed in Runzhou and was in charge of the affairs.

The dual pressure of local military power and the Ding family's strong financial resources gave Bai Fengxian a headache and great pressure.

Bai Feng first tested Bai Susu, and through the dialogue between her grandfather and grandson, he also found out that she did not have a favorite man for other men. If she rashly selected a man to be her son-in-law, Bai Susu would not agree, and it would be self-defeating.

After thinking about it, Bai Fengxian still felt that Su Chen was a suitable candidate. After all, he and Bai Susu had a marriage contract, which could be used as an excuse to reject the Ding family. However, the premise was that Su Chen would agree to marry into the family and get married.

.

Su Chen shook his head and said: "There's nothing to discuss. Firstly, I don't want to get married. Secondly, I have no feelings for Bai Susu. Thirdly, I don't know where I will go in the future. I may not be able to stay in Runzhou for a few years. I just want to marry the Bai family."

Bar."

"My granddaughter is Bai Susu!"

Su Chen looked at his proud look and hummed softly: "It doesn't matter who your granddaughter is, we have to be willing to talk about marriage. I don't have this idea now. Let's talk about it in a few years!"
Chapter completed!
