Two days later, at the Smiths.
A group of people gathered in the conference room and discussed animatedly.
"Why did the old lady suddenly inform us of the clan meeting in the early morning?”
"Did something happen?"
"It's nothing."
"I even checked this morning. Everything is normal.”
"Tsk, so it's still because of Su Qingxue?”
"Isn't this matter already decided? What's there to talk about?”
"Yang Xiao's background check has also come out. He's not from any big family at all.”
"How can we offend the Jiang family because of him?”
"If you ask me, the old lady is muddleheaded!”
"That's right. Qingxue is so outstanding. How can she marry someone so casually?”
"If we really let that Yang Xiao marry into our family, we won't be able to get a single cent of benefits.”
...............
Su Qingxue sat alone in a corner.
He quietly listened to everyone's discussion.
In the eyes of the clansmen, benefits were more important than anything else.
She was like a commodity, being manipulated at will.
No one cared what she thought.
This made her feel very upset and wronged.
As for today's meeting, she had already known about it last night.
Grandmother came over personally to chat with her.
He said a lot in a daze.
For the sake of the family, don't be willful, and so on.
What he meant was that the engagement could not be changed.
This caused Su Qingxue to feel despair.
The conclusion of the discussion two days ago was that the engagement was canceled.
Why did he suddenly change his mind now?
Although Grandmother did not say the exact reason.
However, Su Qingxue could hear the determination and toughness in her tone.
This time, it was likely that Yang Xiao marrying into the family was a foregone conclusion.
"Ah!"
Su Qingxue sighed faintly.
Thinking of Yang Xiao's clumsy face and ridiculous performance that night...
She hated it from the bottom of her heart.
To be married to such a person.
Then she might as well die!
...............
Half an hour later.
The discussion in the conference room suddenly stopped.
Grandma Su walked in with the help of Su Yunnian, the family head.
The old lady looked tired, but her eyes were full of excitement.
There was an inexplicable strangeness.
As soon as she entered the room, she said,
"The reason why I called everyone over so urgently is because I have an important announcement to make.”
"Yunnian, tell me."
Su Yunnian's expression was serious as he went straight to the point."
"Su Qingxue and Yang Xiao's engagement will be carried out as usual.”
"Yang Xiao will officially marry into our family next week.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
The scene was silent at first, then it exploded in an instant.
Some of them even slammed the table and stood up.
" No, I'm against it!!"
"If we offend the Jiang family, what about our timber business?”
"What a fool!"
"I also firmly oppose it!"
"It's right to follow Old Master's will.”
"But we can't ignore the entire family!”
"This is absolutely impossible!"
"If we really do this, what face will my Su Clan have to remain in Tianhai?!”
Because of Yang Xiao's matter, everyone held a few days of family meetings.
After an intense discussion, Yang Xiao's elimination was basically a foregone conclusion.
Everyone was very puzzled. Why did the family head suddenly change his mind?
Su Yunnian looked at the agitated crowd, but his expression did not change at all.
This was completely within his expectations.
Before today, he was also one of those who firmly opposed it.
However, when the old lady placed a stack of letters in front of him in the early hours of last night.
He changed his mind without hesitation.
It was a handwritten letter from the heads of more than ten families in the entire Xia country.
Although the wording was different, the content was extremely consistent:
"If the Su family breaks the marriage agreement between Yang Xiao and Su Qingxue…”
"Then they will immediately stop all cooperation with the Smiths!”
After reading it, he felt a little uneasy.
Su Yunnian felt dizzy.
He would never have thought that Yang Xiao's background was so powerful!
These families were all related to the Su family's business.
Among them, there were three clans that were not weaker than the Tianhai Jiang Clan!
What kind of terrifying background did they have to make these people stand up for Yang Xiao at the expense of losses?!
He broke out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, the news of the engagement being canceled had not been announced yet.
Otherwise, the Smiths would probably collapse!
Those families also had a special request.
This matter must be kept strictly confidential.
He could not let anyone else know except him and the old lady.
This included Su Qingxue, the person involved.
Therefore, Su Yunnian had no choice.
He could only bite the bullet and convince his clansmen.
He and the old lady discussed it all night.
In the end, he thought of a very stupid idea.
Su Yunnian raised his hand and gestured in the air, signaling for everyone to quiet down.
"Everyone, let me repeat myself."
"I called you here today not to discuss, but to inform you!”
"I've already gotten someone to officially announce this news.”
"Don't waste your energy opposing it!”
Su Yunnian's act before reporting had angered many people.
Some of the older ones even pointed at his nose and scolded,
"As the head of the family, how can you be so arbitrary?”
"I have to give everyone a reasonable explanation today!”
Su Yunnian said calmly,"
"If you're dissatisfied with me as the family head, you can go through the process and vote to dismiss me.”
"We can start now."
Hearing this, everyone immediately stopped.
Su Yunnian controlled most of the Su family's business.
If he suddenly lost his head.
The entire Su family would be in chaos for at least a few months.
If the business failed, the money in his pocket would decrease.
This was a very realistic question.
None of them were willing to give up money for their dignity.
Therefore, no one objected to this.
She was furious and could only sulk.
At this moment, Grandma Su stepped forward to play the bad guy.
"Everyone, there's no need to be so anxious."
"Yang Xiao's character and ability are still very strong.”
"Let's observe him for a while.”
"Let him stay in the courtyard first."
"Keep the engagement. The wedding will be held in a few years.”
"This way, we won't offend the Jiang family too much, nor will we go against the will of the old master.”
"Perfect for both."
