Chapter 343: Chapter 343: The Matter of the Child (1)

After Old Master Su picked up his chopsticks, everyone else followed suit, with Su Yanyi’s two dishes becoming the most popular. The symbolism of "one dragon, one phoenix" was appreciated, and after everyone had tasted them, they gave Su Yanyi a big thumbs up.

"Yanyi, the food really tastes great, nothing like I would expect from you," Father Su said. He truly meant to praise his daughter, with no intention of belittling Yanyi!

"Yeah, for you to be able to make such dishes is simply unbelievable!" Mother Su also looked at Su Yanyi as if she were seeing an alien, as if wanting to reacquaint herself with Su Yanyi. She had never imagined the daughter she gave birth to could actually make such delicious food, it was too incredulous!

"Hahaha, girl, you must cook more often for Grandpa in the future, or else Grandpa will come to your little building every day to freeload meals," Grandfather Su laughed heartily.

"Little auntie, the dishes you made are really amazing, both beautiful and delicious!" Xiao Su Nuo joined in to praise Su Yanyi, and of course, if what the others said could be considered praise.

"..." Su Yanyi felt that her family really was teaming up to pick on her!

Meanwhile, as the Su family members gathered for a joyful New Year’s Eve dinner, the Qin family was united in an intense argument!

In the Qin family mansion, Old Master Qin’s will was very clear – the mansion was to be left to the eldest, perhaps a nod to traditional hierarchy. Ultimately, Old Master Qin still left the bulk of the inheritance to his eldest son. However, Old Master Qin also stipulated that the other two Qin brothers were allowed to live in the mansion, even reserving rooms for the grandchildren, maintaining it as the Qin family’s headquarters and foundation.

The New Year’s Eve dinner was eaten in the Qin family mansion. When Old Master Qin was alive, the atmosphere in the Qin family seemed harmonious, but now without Old Master Qin, the mood became indescribably stiff, even filled with a thick tension, as though a battle could erupt at any moment!

The elders remained silent, still aware of the need for restraint and superficial peace, but the younger generation had no such concerns. Sitting around a table as if they were enemies, it would be more accurate to say that, in their eyes, they were indeed enemies!

Turning from kin to foes over interests is not something unusual; after all, in today’s society, money is valuable while emotions are worthless. The value of these priceless feelings varies from person to person.

"Qin Chu, you have a good relationship with the Su family, don’t you? How about asking your elder brother to take Su Yanmo out for some fun?" These words were from Qin Ying, the only daughter of the third Qin brother’s family, who had always been very interested in Su Yanmo.

"It’s you who wants to get close to the Su family, love-struck idiot, wanting to get married but finding yourself unable to, it’s just laughable!" Qin Chu’s least favorite thing was when someone would bring up his elder brother, especially during such a sensitive time. What would he need that man for, coming back to fight over the family fortune? He wouldn’t be that foolish!

But even if he wasn’t that foolish, it didn’t mean his father wouldn’t be. Not just him, by now the entire Qin family knew of his father’s visit to the Su family. Although they didn’t know what was discussed, it certainly raised suspicions, making his days far from peaceful!

Qin Chu’s expression darkened, and the look he gave his father was somewhat hostile. The fight for the family fortune wasn’t just a battle among the older generation, but theirs as well!

"Who are you calling a love-struck idiot? Humph, you just want to cling to the Su family without letting go, don’t you?" Qin Ying glared at Qin Chu, furious. It was she who wanted to court the Su family first, but even before she could make her move, her second uncle had already made contact with Qin Jiran, the illegitimate child. She didn’t know whether they spoke ill of her family, resulting in Su Yanmo giving her the cold shoulder – truly infuriating!
