Chapter 688 Fan Sheng Welcomes His Bride
Although the Hu family has declined, Hu Buqi is also jokingly said to be unable to support him.
But only Hu Wenhai knew that his father was just not talented enough, not that he didn't work hard enough... He had worked very hard to support the Hu family... but his talent was not comparable to that of the ancestors of the Hu family.
But no matter how the Hu family declined, from childhood to adulthood, my father never let the siblings suffer a single grievance.
Dad gave everything he could to his siblings.
So Hubuzi may not be a good head of the family, but he must be a good father.
From childhood to adulthood, it was under the care of his father that Hu Wenhai and his sister Hu Wenjing could grow up without worries. However, at this moment, Hu Wenhai suddenly discovered that his father was not omnipotent.
Dad is very weak many times. He wants to use his shoulders to hold up a world for himself and his sister, but the world is too heavy, and Dad's shoulders that are not thick enough are almost crushed. .
For the first time, Hu Wenhai felt that he was so incompetent. If... I, Hu Wenhai, were better... I didn't need to shine like Senior Brother Xinghe. As long as I could shine as brightly as Senior Brother Ma Liang, maybe my father wouldn't need to be so tired...
Maybe no one will dare to look down on the Hu family anymore... No one will dare to point at Dad's nose and say that he can't help him...
In the next few days, everyone in the Hu family was preparing for the wedding of the eldest daughter Hu Wenjing.
The entire Hu family is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations...
But as the wedding day approaches, everyone in the Hu family knows that although everything seems to be normal on the surface, according to the rules, the Hu family should send the dowry gift list to the Ling family in advance...
But the Ling family had sent people to urge him two or three times, but the Hu family never sent out the gift list.
Hubuzi contacted his old friends in the past... Hubuzi put his old face on all sides, but when faced with the amount of resources the Hu family wanted to borrow, no response was given from all parties.
After all, the Hu family is no longer the No. 1 talisman family. The Hu family has declined to the point where they need to beg for help in order to survive.
Who dares to lend them so many resources to the Hu family that has not ended up like this? Isn’t that just in vain?
Therefore, although Hu Buqi's old friends all sent generous gifts, they all chose to remain silent regarding the resources the Hu family requested.
Hu Wenhai watched his father pray humbly to others, but in the end all he got was polite rejection from others.
Although his father said it was okay...I still have other old friends, at that moment Hu Wenhai clearly saw the slightest hint of helplessness in his father's eyes.
The day was approaching day by day, and there were very few resources that Hu Buqi could borrow, but in order for his daughter to marry into the Ling family in a glorious manner, and for his daughter to not be laughed at by others in the future.
Hubuzi gritted his teeth and added all the valuable things he could find at home as his daughter's dowry.
But even so, this dowry gift list is not even a little shabby compared to the Ling family's betrothal gift.
The long-awaited gift list from the Hu family was finally delivered to the Ling family.
The mistress of the Ling family looked at the gift list presented by her servants and was so angry that she almost tore the gift list into pieces.
"Master, take a look... Although Wu Qi is the second son, Wu Qi is also the legitimate son of our Ling family. The betrothal gift given by my Ling family is only slightly less than that of Wu Zheng, but now this dowry from the Hu family What is it?"
"With such a shabby dowry, our Ling family will not be able to become a joke to the major families in the northwest! Master, I have told you a long time ago that the Hu family has declined. Although Hu Wenhai, the generation of the Hu family, has become a disciple of the Haotian Sect, but There are so many disciples of the Haotian Sect, so what can Hu Wenhai do if he is a disciple of the Haotian Sect?"
"Before, the legitimate daughter of the Southwest Wang family wanted to marry Wu Qi. If Wu Qi married the legitimate daughter of the Southwest Wang family, it would be a great help to Wu Qi's future. But now, the Hu eldest daughter will not help Wu Qi in the future. I can’t even afford a decent dowry.”
"This dowry is not even as much as what was given to a branch of our Ling family when they got married last year."
Faced with his wife's complaints, Ling Bufan was somewhat helpless.
Although he knew that the Hu family was in decline, Ling Bufan still did not expect that the Hu family had declined to such an extent.
The eldest daughter only got such a shabby dowry when she got married... But now that the Ling family can no longer regret their marriage, they will really become the laughing stock of the world.
Therefore, Ling Bufan could only comfort Mrs. Yi.
But not only the mistress of the Ling family... Along with the dowry gift list sent by the Hu family, the entire Ling family was also shocked by such a shabby gift list.
"The Hu family used to be the number one family of talismans, right? Didn't they say that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse? Isn't this too shabby?"
"Brother... it was so many years ago that the Hu family became the first family of talismans. Today, the Hu family has long declined to the extreme. I heard that with this dowry, no one can afford to sell it!"
"That's not right... Isn't Hu Wenhai of the Hu family a disciple of the Haotian Sect?"
"Brother... what happened to the disciples of the Haotian Sect? There are so many disciples of the Haotian Sect, and Hu Wenhai is only one of the many disciples of the Haotian Sect, and he has not achieved much yet."
"I heard that Hu Wenhai was personally recruited by Chu Xinghe into the Haotian Sect, and he also learned the ancient Tongtian Ru."
"So what? I heard that the Hu family used the back door..."
"After marrying such a wife, I'm afraid Brother Wu Qi's life will be difficult in the future..."
This is how it is for a big family. Intrigues are common. Although Ling Wuqi is the legitimate son, Ling Wuqi's wife Hu Wenjing's mother's family cannot give him any help. This also allows many Ling family members to see a new opportunity.
Days passed, and the wedding date arrived as scheduled.
Although the Hu family was in decline and the dowry was shabby, the Ling family was the first family in the northwest after all. For Ling Wuqi's wedding, the Ling family still invited almost all the prominent people in the entire northwest to come.
And the most famous among these people is Fan Sheng of Dongyue Pavilion.
As a genius among the young generation of geniuses, Fan Sheng is the future head of Dongyue Pavilion.
This time, the Ling family can be said to have spent a huge price and face to invite Fan Sheng, a young genius from Dongyue Pavilion, to personally welcome Ling Wuqi.
When Fan Sheng arrived at the Ling family, Ling Bufan, the head of the Ling family, went out to greet him personally.
When Fan Sheng stepped into the Ling family's door, people from various forces in the northwest also stood up and saluted.
Don't think that the Ling family is called the first family in the northwest, that is outside the top ten sects.
In the Lieyang Continent, the top ten sects are the absolute controllers. Dongyue Pavilion is located in the northwest and is the real king of the northwest.
The Ling family has been able to go from a medium-sized family to the first family in the northwest over the years, all thanks to the support of Dongyue Pavilion behind the scenes.
No matter how powerful the Ling family is, they can only bow down in front of a behemoth like Dongyue Pavilion. If there is a trace of second thoughts, Dongyue Pavilion can change the first family in the northwest in a minute.
This time, the Ling family can invite Fan Sheng to welcome Ling Wuqi to the bride, and it is also a way for the Ling family to inform the entire northwest that our Ling family is the only spokesperson for the northwest selected by Dongyue Pavilion!
Although the Hu family is shabby, the Ling family, as the first family in the northwest, cannot be shabby.
With Fan Sheng as the person to welcome the bride, the Ling family can be said to be in great glory this time.
"Master Ling, is the auspicious time chosen? When will we set off?" Fan Sheng looked at Ling Bufan with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face.
"Chief Fan Sheng is joking. Do we need to choose an auspicious time... When you say we should set off, then that is the auspicious time." Ling Bufan said with a smile.
Fan Sheng nodded with great satisfaction at Ling Bufan's answer, glanced at the time and waved his hand, saying, "In that case, I think now is the auspicious time, let's set off!"
"Okay! Chief Fan has ordered that the auspicious time has arrived, and the wedding party is leaving!"
The wedding party walked out of the Ling family. As the leader of the wedding party, Fan Sheng led the way for Ling Wuqi.
The wedding party set off to Luheng City in a mighty manner.
In Luheng City, the Hu family is now also hanging red lights and preparing everything.
However, when Hu Buqi heard that the person who came to help the Ling family to welcome the bride was Fan Sheng, the chief disciple of Dongyue Pavilion, he also attached great importance to it.
After all, Fan Sheng represents the entire Dongyue Pavilion.
Hu Wenhai is Hu Wenjing's younger brother, so it is natural that Hu Wenhai personally went to send the bride off. Compared with his father's attention to Fan Sheng, Hu Wenhai is fine.
There is no way... As a disciple of Haotian Sect, except for Senior Brother Xinghe, even the chiefs of the other ten major sects would not make Hu Wenhai too flustered.
"Check, all the dowries are fine, right..."
Hu Buqi was a little flustered at this moment, directing the family to check everything.
Although there were only fifty carts of dowry, it was indeed a bit shabby, but this was all the Hu family could take out.
While the Hu family was checking up and down, someone sent a message that the Ling family's wedding procession had entered Luheng City, and Fan Sheng personally went to the Ling family to welcome the bride.
The entire wedding procession stretched for several miles away, which can be said to be very impressive.
Fan Sheng, who was at the front of the wedding procession, attracted countless people to exclaim that the Ling family was really generous, and even the chief disciple of Dongyue Pavilion, Fan Sheng, could be invited out.
Fan Sheng led the wedding procession into Luheng City and arrived outside the Hu family.
According to the rules of the northwest, the bride's family was supposed to stop the wedding procession and give them some problems, but Fan Sheng represented the Dongyue Pavilion, so who dared to make things difficult?
The door of the Hu family opened directly, and Fan Sheng led Ling Wuqi into the Hu family without encountering any obstacles.
The Hu family now has countless guests and friends. Everyone couldn't help but sigh as they watched Fan Sheng enter the Hu family. The Ling family is indeed the first family in the northwest.
The Ling family is probably the most popular this time because Fan Sheng can be the wedding party.
But at the same time, the greater the momentum of the Ling family, the more shabby the Hu family seems.
Especially when seeing the fifty carts of dowry prepared by the Hu family, it makes people sigh that the Hu family is too shameful.
Not to mention the guests, even Fan Sheng, who was in charge of the wedding, couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the dowry of the Hu family and shook his head and sighed that the Hu family was too shabby.
According to the rules, the Hu family also has to prepare a generous gift when the wedding party comes. Originally, the Hu family did prepare one, but now that the wedding party has changed to Fan Sheng, the gift prepared in advance is somewhat unpresentable.
But there is no way, Hu Buqi can only grit his teeth and take out the gift prepared for the wedding party.
Sure enough, seeing the gift prepared by Hu Buqi, Fan Sheng didn't even want to take a second look.
Facing such a shabby Hu family, Fan Sheng was too lazy to stay any longer, so he waved his hand and said: "I am in a hurry, some procedures can be skipped, just notify the bride to come out, let's go!"
Hearing Fan Sheng's words, the Hu family looked a little ugly. After all, there should be a set of procedures to follow when welcoming the bride. It was somewhat embarrassing to skip all the procedures.
Although Hu Wenhai felt a little uncomfortable, he knew that today was his sister's big day after all, and he couldn't mess around no matter what.
In the end, he could only grit his teeth and nod.
But just when Hu Wenhai was about to order someone to invite his sister out, a familiar voice came from not far away.
"Little Fan Sheng, you are the chief disciple of Dongyue Pavilion after all. It's okay if you are ignorant in Dongyue Pavilion, but are you so ignorant when you go out? You are embarrassing yourself outside?"
The sudden voice caused an uproar inside and outside the Hu family.
Who is so bold? This is Fan Sheng!
Everyone turned their heads and saw an ugly guy walking towards them from a distance with a happy face!
He is... Ma Liang!
