CHAPTER 263: CHAPTER 184: CAN I CUT YOUR MELON? (REQUEST FOR SUBSCRIPTION)_6

"If you don’t make mistakes today, then you won’t know what lies ahead. We always crawl forward slowly amidst constant errors."

"Only mistakes can guide us to the right direction; it’s the act of saving and remedying that repeatedly reminds us we are still alive."

"Otherwise, what meaning would an eternal life filled with confusion and chaos have?"

After speaking, several patriarchs applauded in succession.

"Well said, life’s great mentor!"

"Master, I’ve got it."

Yuchi reluctantly raised his thumb, biting his lip until it bled, filled with despair and unwillingness.

Yet in the end, amidst Changsun Hao’s ecstasy, he left his fingerprints one after another on the paper.

...

"It’s done!" both Yuchi and Changsun Hao thought simultaneously.

...

Changsun Hao was full of joy as he looked at the paper in front of him; this paper was a treasure indeed.

With this paper, he could explain the situation to the officials and they could rebuild the chamber of commerce, hahahaha.

Exhilarating!

So invigorating!

Today is truly Changsun Hao’s lucky day!

Yuchi held the paper and glanced at it, showing various signs of disdain.

Changsun Hao carefully put away the paper and placed it into Yuchi’s sleeve pocket, adding a comment, saying:

"President Yuchi, take good care of yourself in the future, and don’t lose this official letter, as it’s the evidence of your mistake."

"Hahaha."

Yuchi wiped the tears squeezed from the corner of his eyes and said, "Patriarch Changsun, you are truly a good person."

"Of course, those who know me know that I am a benevolent existence," Changsun Hao responded instantly.

Then he waved his hand and called out to the outside, "Someone, serve the dishes!"

Indeed, finally, Yuchi was directly kicked down from his high position.

So, the former glory is sitting right beside me, how can I not properly have a meal with him?

If I don’t have a meal with a failed person, how can I highlight my own success?

The previous talk was nonsense, this is the real life!

The papayas were tidied up, and the door opened; it was the owner of Lamp Flower Tower who brought in the dishes.

He didn’t know what had happened in the council chamber, just knew to do his job well.

However, upon seeing the traces of tears on Yuchi’s face, he placed the dishes on the table, feeling very puzzled.

"What’s happened?"

"Why does President Yuchi look like he just cried?"

"Seems, perhaps, maybe something happened?"

He didn’t dare to ask, took his doubts and directly left, closing the door behind him when leaving.

Such a table of fine dishes.

Yuchi blew his nose long and then sat down properly, with a determined look, staring at Changsun Hao, saying:

"Senior, the younger generation needs to continue learning from you well in the future."

"But in any case, we must take care of our bodies, let’s eat first!"

Oh, are you still able to eat? If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to eat. Changsun Hao was surprised, but he smiled and said:

"Yes, if your body is well-fed, you don’t have to worry about wealth, come, let’s eat, after this meal, perhaps there will be some minor troubles later."

He even stood up to deliver a crab to Yuchi.

Yuchi estimated that this crab weighed about two pounds, in past life, this crab would not have been cheap.

And if you wrote the word "sun" on the crab with a brush, being frank and upright, the price could double.

Yuchi did not hold back, he smiled cheerfully and cutely, eating the crab.

He even sent some crab roe he dug to Bai Rou beside him, saying:

"Miss Bai, we may not be able to meet in the future, this is to thank you with papaya."

Bai Rou gratefully accepted and said, "It’s alright, there’s right and wrong, that’s how the world is."

Changsun Hao looked at the two people’s expression, speechless.

This is the money of my Zhangsun Family, damn you Yuchi, using my gold and silver to court Bai Rou, what were you thinking earlier?

If you had wanted to get someone like Bai Rou earlier, she couldn’t have escaped!

Only after leaving do you realize the good in others?

And Bai Rou thought for a moment, hesitated and said, "President Yuchi."

Yuchi, who was eating crab, looked at her in confusion, and upon seeing her entangled face, he smiled and said:

"It’s okay, Miss Bai, you can speak directly if you have something to say."

"Alright then."

Bai Rou thought for a moment, "It’s like this, we talked about Bai Suzhen’s marriage before, didn’t we?"

"Yes," Yuchi nodded blankly.

"I agreed a bit hastily before, but these couple of days I specially asked her opinion."

"Bai Suzhen herself has only an average relationship with the younger generation of your Wei Family, so I can’t decide on this marriage."

"After all, marriage is a lifetime matter, I can’t force Bai Suzhen to agree to this marriage."

Bai Rou spoke, becoming even more embarrassed.

She knew she was lying, yet she felt very embarrassed, feeling she was not a trustworthy person.

But what could she do, she couldn’t associate with Wei Family anymore at this time.

At this moment, Changsun Hao was the leader.

Bai Rou needed to present her loyalty before Changsun Hao, just like she was before the chamber of commerce was established.

Yuchi listened, hesitated for a moment, but said nothing.

Changsun Hao could clearly see Yuchi’s mood turning more downcast.

Truly ashen-faced.

And seeing Yuchi’s depressed mood, the more dejected he was, the more delighted Changsun Hao felt! This was an insult, you know!

For the family, apart from the primary branch’s males and females not agreeing randomly.

For other matters, generally, as long as relationships are not bad, decisions can be made directly.

As for talking about Bai Suzhen’s own opinion, saying she herself is unwilling?

What, is there Xu Xian perhaps?

Definitely not.

So, the fate of minor members like Bai Suzhen in the Bai Family is directly in the hands of a patriarch like Bai Rou.

As long as Bai Rou agrees, no matter whom Bai Suzhen likes, she has to face it.

This is a clear flaw in the current family system, which many of the younger generation cannot avoid.

The backside of a big family involves sacrifices from many of the younger generation.

Thus, this world, without joking, results in many younger generation being forcibly separated.

Leading to many "don’t mock youth’s poverty" situations.

Several other patriarchs watched, and their eating movements became somewhat awkward.

This was directly slapping someone in the face.

They just spoke up since they weren’t related to the chamber of commerce, and now this matter was brought up?

This Bai Rou was evident in choosing sides at critical times!

"It’s alright, Miss Bai, such things can be understood," Yuchi whispered pitifully.

"Thank you."

Bai Rou, feeling uneasy, thought for a while and still said reluctantly:

"I’ll send you papayas in the future."

"I’ve planted a lot of papayas in the Bai Family garden."

"In the future, when they ripen, I’ll have someone send them to you."

"Okay," Yuchi replied gloomily.

Break open your papayas, what now, still entangled? Changsun Hao was speechless.

But since Bai Rou said so, he needed to stomp Yuchi hard.

He put down his chopsticks, took out a letter from his sleeve pocket.

He walked slowly to Yuchi’s side, pressing the letter next to him.

Yuchi looked up at Changsun Hao in confusion, as he had no idea what the old man meant.
