Lucius Rodrigo's face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
In the Rodrigo family, there was only one person who could invalidate his decision.
It was the old man the Rodrigo family.
Bipola Rodrigo pinched his vitals.
old master Rodrigo quickly walked into the hall with Bipola Rodrigo.
As soon as he entered the door, old master Rodrigo's face didn't look very good.
"Lucius, what's going on?"
"Bipola told me that you want to marry her to a loser?"
"Dad."Lucius Rodrigo stood up and gave up his seat to old master Rodrigo.
"Don't listen to Bipola nonsense."
"Valerion Garcia is the son of brother Malachi Garcia!"
"Malachi Garcia?" The old man was stunned.
"Yes. Brother Malachi Garcia has been very kind to my the Rodrigo family."
old master Rodrigo was silent.
He raised his eyelids and searched the crowd.
There were only two people in the hall who were not from the Rodrigo family.
Sylar Johnson is a junior in the Johnson family, and the old man knows him.
Valerion Garcia was the only unfamiliar face, and old master Rodrigo recognized him at a glance.
After looking Valerion Garcia up and down, old master Rodrigo shook his head.
"Lucius! You are the head of the family now."
"Every decision you make is not just about you."
"It also affects the entire the Rodrigo family."
"Don't act on impulse! Think carefully!"
Although old master Rodrigo did not directly name him, his dissatisfaction with Valerion Garcia was evident in his words.
When Gia Perez heard old master Rodrigo's tone, he knew that the old man did not like Valerion Garcia.
"That's right. Dad."
"I asked."
"Valerion Garcia wants academic qualifications but not academic qualifications, and skills but not ability."
"What's more, he is an orphan now."
"He had nothing but a few thousand dollars."
"I dare not object to whatever decision Lucius makes."
"But we can't push Bipola into the fire pit, right? Dad."
Gia Perez looked greatly wronged.
old master Rodrigo face dropped.
"It's just nonsense!" the old man said angrily.
"Bipola, come to grandpa. Grandpa will make the decision for you."
Bipola Rodrigo glanced at Valerion Garcia.
When she came over, she kicked a paper ball with her toes and rolled it not far from old master Rodrigo.
old master Rodrigo's eyes accidentally touched the paper ball and he was stunned.
Immediately, his eyes lit up: "Hey, what is this?"
"This,"Gia Perez continued, "Valerion Garcia used it to fool people."
"He also said that this piece of scrap paper could be used by our family."
"With what he did, what could be useful to our family? I threw it away."
"That's right, Grandpa."Bipola Rodrigo said: "With garbage like him, what good things can there be?"
old master Rodrigo waved his hand to indicate silence.
He stood up, picked up the ball of paper, spread it in his palm, and looked up and down for a while.
old master Rodrigo was startled at first, and then his breathing became heavier.
Then his eyes became brighter and brighter.
Lucius Rodrigo knew that the old man liked to play with antiques.
To be able to make the old man care so much proves that this parchment is not simple.
"Dad, is it an antique?"
"That's right!"old master Rodrigo was very excited, and the hand holding the parchment was trembling slightly.
He raised his eyes and looked at Valerion Garcia seriously again.
"Valerion Garcia, does this thing belong to you?"
"That's right."Valerion Garcia said.
"What does it mean? If it is, it is, if it is not, it is not."
"That is."
Master Li took a long breath and carefully put the parchment away.
"Valerion Garcia, how did you get this piece of paper?"
"I used to collect medicine in the mountains with a crazy old man for a few years, and he gave it to me."
Valerion Garcia gets angry when he thinks of the old man.
Ever since he could remember, the old man had treated him like an animal.
Compared with Lucius Rodrigo, he is as good as heaven and earth.
old master Rodrigo sighed softly: "Master!"
Then, he shouted to Lucius Rodrigo: "Lucius!"
"Dad."Lucius Rodrigo responded quickly.
"I agree to the matter between Valerion Garcia and Bipola!"
"ah?"
old master Rodrigo's attitude turned 180 degrees, and Lucius Rodrigo was not mentally prepared at all.
stunned.
"Ah what? This is a great joy for my Li family!"
Lucius Rodrigo came back to his senses and was overjoyed: "Oh oh. Good!"
He couldn't help but look at Valerion Garcia one more time.
The old man with a very stubborn temper could change his tune so quickly. That piece of parchment seemed to have a lot of background.
I don't know what is written on it.
Gia Perez was stunned and froze on the spot with his eyes wide open.
The Li family members in the hall were also stunned.
That piece of tattered paper that no one picked up when it was thrown on the ground actually made old master Rodrigo attitude change so quickly?
What on earth is that parchment?
Bipola Rodrigo was so anxious that she almost cried: "Grandpa, how could you do this!"
"I don't want to get engaged to a piece of trash."
"Then how can I meet people in the future?"
Gia Perez came to her senses and she became anxious. "Dad, you can't be confused!"
old master Rodrigo's face turned into a tiger. "Am I confused?"
"I think you were the one who was confused! You almost ruined a major event for my the Rodrigo family!"
"Lucius, you, my wife, must take good care of her from now on."
Lucius Rodrigo glared at Gia Perez fiercely.
Gia Perez didn't dare to say anything anymore.
"The matter between Valerion Garcia and Bipola is settled! I will personally choose a good day to finalize the marriage."
"That's it for today."
In the Rodrigo family, no one can change what old master Rodrigo has decided.
When Lucius Rodrigo saw this, he waved his hands to everyone. "Everyone go back."
Although everyone wanted to know the secret of the parchment.
But it seems that old master Rodrigo will not satisfy everyone's curiosity at all.
The Li family members dispersed.
Sylar Johnson's eyes flickered, he silently looked at the elders of the Rodrigo family and Bipola Rodrigo, and then left together.
After everyone left, Li old master Rodrigo excitedly.
"Dad, what kind of antique is that parchment?"
old master Rodrigo looked around cautiously.
Lucius Rodrigo understood what the old man meant.
"You guys go and guard outside. Don't let anyone in without my consent."
"yes."
There were only four members of Lucius Rodrigo family and Valerion Garcia in the hall.
"Lucius, there is hope for the revitalization of our the Rodrigo family!"old master Rodrigo was a little excited.
He took out the parchment and pointed to a line of small words on the top of the parchment.
"Look. These are small ancient characters."
"What is written on the paper is the lost ancient formula of Zhuyan Dan!"
"Priceless treasure! Priceless treasure!"
Lucius Rodrigo was shocked and quickly came over to take a look.
"It's really an ancient recipe for Zhu Yan Dan!"Lucius Rodrigo also became excited.
Modern people pay great attention to beauty.
If Zhuyan Dan is slightly improved, it can definitely become Li's flagship product.
Lucius Rodrigo seemed to see an infinite world unfolding before his eyes.
"Such a priceless ancient prescription has been thrown away by you like a waste! Do you think you have failed in success and failed in failure? Huh?"
Lucius Rodrigo glared at Gia Perez and Bipola Rodrigo angrily.
Gia Perez lowered his head, not daring to say another word.
Bipola Rodrigo's face suddenly turned red to her ears.
"Well, can I interrupt?"Valerion Garcia said suddenly.
old master Rodrigo immediately greeted him with a smile: "Yes! Yes!"
"Is this recipe valuable?"
"Of course! Priceless treasure!"old master Rodrigo said with certainty.
"That's it..."Valerion Garcia paused and continued: "But I still have several such ancient recipes."
old master Rodrigo, who was drinking tea leisurely, spurted out a mouthful of tea with a "pop" sound.
Lucius Rodrigo wiped his face expressionlessly.
He shook his hand and shook off the tea and a few tea leaves in his palm.
"Do you really have several ancient prescriptions?"old master Rodrigo's voice trembled.
Even though he had seen strong winds and waves, what Valerion Garcia was talking about was a tsunami!
Of course he couldn't stand it.
An ancient recipe for Zhuyan Dan is already a priceless treasure.
How many more?
Who can bear it?
"Yes. But I didn't bring it with me. I'll go back and get it for you when I have time."
Valerion Garcia said calmly.
For some reason, Gia Perez and Bipola Rodrigo were secretly relieved when they heard what Valerion Garcia said.
"Those ancient prescriptions were kept by your master?"old master Rodrigo refused to give up.
"Are you talking about a crazy old man?"Valerion Garcia shook his head. "He is not my master!"
"The crazy old man has said more than once that raising me is like raising an extra livestock."
"Ah? According to that..."old master Rodrigo expression became uncertain.
Gia Perez rolled his eyes. "Dad, in my opinion, this ancient prescription was stolen by Valerion Garcia!"
"Think about it. Who wouldn't entrust such an important ancient prescription to the person you trust or love the most?"
"The crazy old man raised Valerion Garcia like a livestock, how could he give him the ancient prescription?"
What Gia Perez said was exactly what old master Rodrigo was worried about.
Now he is not sure about the relationship between the old master and Valerion Garcia.
If this ancient recipe was stolen by Valerion Garcia, its nature would be completely different.
"Valerion Garcia, did you steal this ancient prescription?"old master Rodrigo asked solemnly.
Valerion Garcia tilted his head and thought for a while.
This kind of ancient recipe written on parchment, there is a big box at the crazy old man's place.
The box was never locked. Valerion Garcia wanted to see and take it, but the crazy old man didn't say a word.
Ancient prescriptions like Zhuyan Pill were not qualified to be put into the old man's big box and thrown on the ground.
However, taking things away without the owner's consent does seem a bit like stealing from this perspective.
"Probably...it doesn't count."Valerion Garcia wasn't sure.
Seeing Valerion Garcia hesitation, old master Rodrigo expression changed.
The answer is already there.
"Dad, you almost fell into his trap!"Gia Perez perked up.
"Trying to deceive our family's trust by using a stolen ancient prescription!"
"I just saw something was wrong with him, so I threw Gu Fang away."
old master Rodrigo remained silent.
But the look in Valerion Garcia's eyes was completely different.
There are precautions, vigilance, and contempt.
"Grandpa, you can't let me get engaged to a thief!"Bipola Rodrigo was about to cry.
She really believed Gia Perez's words.
old master Rodrigo slowly sat down, his expression changing.
He was shaken by the marriage he had just promised to Valerion Garcia and Bipola Rodrigo.
"Dad!"Lucius Rodrigo said anxiously: "My the Rodrigo family has always been loyal!"
"This is the foundation of our Li family."
old master Rodrigo sighed slightly. "Bipola, go back to the house with grandpa. Grandpa wants to tell you something."
old master Rodrigo led Bipola Rodrigo and Gia Perez out.
When passing through the corridor, old master Rodrigo stopped.
"This marriage is hasty."
"Grandpa, let Valerion Garcia give up this idea quickly!"Bipola Rodrigo said.
old master Rodrigo shook his head: "What I promised personally cannot be changed."
"the Wilson family can do the thing about regretting the marriage, but our Li family can't do it!"
When Bipola Rodrigo heard that she was going to get engaged to Valerion Garcia, her mouth tightened.
old master Rodrigo touched Bipola Rodrigo's head lovingly.
"Fortunately, we haven't decided on a date yet."
"I won't give you a definite date. The rest is up to you."
