Chapter 300: The Dowry Controversy! (Four)
In the banquet hall.
Some aristocratic families knew that there was no play, so they fell silent. As for the other aristocratic families who had the conditions to propose marriage, they frowned and thought hard.
The dowry gift from the Liu family has raised Mu Piaoran's "worth" to a level that is hard to match. With this level of bride price, even some second-rate families dare not speak rashly.
The value of Mu Piaoran is of course far more than these astronomical figures, but at this moment, there are not many aristocratic families who can offer a decent gift.
Just when everyone thought that the Liu family had shocked no one at the scene, a muscular middle-aged man walked into the banquet hall on the second floor, surrounded by a group of black-clothed bodyguards.
Everyone turned their heads to look, and they were suddenly shocked.
The person who came was one of the celebrities in the capital, Qiao Yunen, the head of the Qiao family's generation.
Qiao Yunen is the elder brother of Qiao Yunshan and Qiao Lao San, and the current head of the Qiao family. As soon as he appeared on the stage, he naturally made those small families fall silent.
It's just that after entering the venue, the well-known head of the ancient family's complexion has become as ugly as cooked pork liver.
He originally planned to propose marriage to the Ye family and the Mu family at the same time, so that his two sons could obtain the greatest benefits for the Qiao family through marriage.
Ye Ninghan is the only contemporary child of the Ye family, and she will marry sooner or later. As long as she can be married into the Qiao family, then the Qiao family and the Ye family will be closely linked and become an unshakable giant!
And Mu Piaoran is a peerless genius in martial arts, if she can pass the door, the strength of the Qiao family in the next few decades will be absolutely guaranteed.
This was originally a perfect plan carefully arranged by Qiao Yunen for the Qiao family, but it was accidentally destroyed by the Xia family!
Not only did his eldest son fail to return on time, but the Xia family actually set up a stage for the Mu family again, allowing this little family of no means to perform on stage?
Suddenly, Qiao Yunen was furious!
He had already had contact with the Mu family, and promised to give the Mu family great benefits.
Of course Third Uncle Mu wanted to curry favor with this top family and find a big tree for the Mu family to rely on. Therefore, Uncle Mu also reached a consensus with the Qiao family early on that after the family meeting, he would marry Mu Piaoran to Qiao Yeyun.
Mu Piaoran is the person Qiao Yunen likes. Qiao Yeyun, Qiao Yunen's eldest son, is her fiancé of course!
But.
With the support of the Xia family, how dare the Mu family accept the bride price openly?
Isn't this going to swell my Qiao family's face?
After entering the venue, Qiao Yunen walked onto the stage without a word of nonsense, pointed at Lin Chen's pretended "Mu Sanshu" and yelled at him.
"Is your Mu family all treacherous people? After agreeing to our Qiao family, now you come here to collect gifts from other families? Don't you want to go back on your word? Are you not afraid of revenge from my Qiao family?"
Immediately, everyone in the arena widened their eyes, looking at Qiao Yunen in disbelief.
It turns out... The Qiao family has long taken a fancy to this peerless genius, and has reached a secret agreement with the Mu family?
That being the case, why did the Mu family come up with such a thing?
The Qiao family is an ancient family! Countless small families have squeezed their heads to seek their shelter.
In addition, if the Mu family and the Qiao family had an agreement, wouldn't their current behavior be deceitful?
Thinking of this, most of the descendants of the aristocratic family sneered at the Mu family, while the Li family and the Liu family who had previously declared that they would give out dowry gifts also had dark clouds on their faces.
A family of the lowest rank, how dare to tease all the families openly?
Isn't this playing a flashlight in a latrine... looking for death!
but.
Lin Chen is not Uncle Mu.
Although he didn't know this arrogant middle-aged man, he still deduced Qiao Yunen's identity.
Lin Chen smiled calmly, picked up the microphone, and said to everyone in the audience:
"Everyone, I know that the appearance of this person has caused everyone to misunderstand the Mu family. Now, I solemnly announce in front of everyone!
The Mu family has never reached any agreement with the Qiao family! My Mu family is not afraid of slander and revenge from any top family!
The Mu family behaves upright and sits upright, and has always done things in a well-behaved manner, but if someone deliberately sows dissension and tries to destroy the reputation of my Mu family, then my Mu family will never let it go!
Although my Mu family is small, it is still a thousand-year-old family! Even if the background is not deep, it will never lose face of the family! "
After Lin Chen Yizheng finished speaking, he met Qiao Yunen's eyes without any hesitation, which shocked the guests present.
This... is a bit wrong.
If the Qiao family really reached an agreement with the Mu family, the Mu family would not have to organize this banquet with the help of the Xia family.
Could it be that...the Qiao family really created something out of nothing, talking nonsense?
The Mu family did not hesitate to use such strong words to express their position. It is obvious that they have never made any agreement with your Qiao family at all!
The facts are obvious.
The Qiao family also hoped to get this peerless genius. But the method they used turned out to be robbery?
Make up a "promise" that doesn't exist at all, and then let the Mu family bear the heavy burden of treachery, and finally dare not do anything recklessly, so they can only marry Mu Piaoran to the Qiao family?
Yes, that must be the case! The Qiao family is bullying others! The Qiao family is vying for that peerless genius in different ways!
All of a sudden, many children from aristocratic families scolded the Qiao family for being shameless in their hearts.
Qiao Yunen on the stage was stunned for a moment.
It never occurred to him at all that this weak-looking representative of the Mu family, who seemed to be a different person, would dare to deny that agreement in public under the watchful eyes of everyone?
Moreover, not only did he deny the agreement with the Qiao family, but he also turned the other way, saying that my Qiao family was persecuting them?
Qiao Yunen's anger finally erupted!
"The Mu family! You guys are doing really well! I'm abolishing this so-called peerless genius today, let me see what qualifications your Mu family has to be crazy in front of me!"
After finishing speaking, Qiao Yunen didn't care, but actually wanted to attack Mu Piaoran in front of everyone?
A strong wind blew across the field, and an old man with white hair stood in front of Qiao Yunen, holding his just raised hand.
"Boy Qiao, you are too presumptuous!"
Old Master Xia gave a cold snort, and secretly exerted force on his hands.
Although Qiao Yunen is also a master with triple internal energy, his years of practicing martial arts are definitely not as good as Old Master Xia, and the internal energy in his body is naturally not as pure as the old man.
So under the old man's deliberate pressure, his raised hand could only be slowly put down.
Until now, Qiao Yunen frowned, realizing that his situation was extremely disadvantageous.
First of all, this banquet was hosted by the Xia family. Although the Qiao family seems to be superior to the Xia family, anyone who is really familiar with the family knows... The Xia family will not give the Qiao family any face!
