Zheng Xinyue felt like she was going to faint from anger. Before coming here, she thought she was dressed quite well and was determined to amaze everyone.

I didn't expect to be ridiculed as an old-fashioned person right at the beginning.

Who doesn't perm their hair these days? You're always praised when you go out, so why are people saying so little about perming my hair?

But she had no way to refute it because everyone around her looked so agreeable that she couldn't help but suspect that she was really unsophisticated.

"Sister, what are you talking about? It seems that you still don't understand the current aesthetic standards. People need to look forward."

Zheng Xinyue said this, but in her heart she hated Zheng Wangshu's mother. How could she have given birth to Zheng Wangshu so beautiful? She was so far behind.

Although she is younger than Zheng Wangshu and the other party is married, she still cannot compare to him now.

For some reason, Zhou Yunyan subconsciously distanced himself from Zheng Xinyue, as if it was embarrassing to stand next to her.

Zheng Xinyue obviously felt it, which made her unhappy, but in front of so many relatives, she could only endure it.

Gao Huilan and Zhou Aiguo, standing by, were also dissatisfied with Zheng Xinyue when they saw this. What kind of occasion was this today? This was the old man's home turf, and not only all the Zhou family's relatives were here, but also some of the old man's friends. Pick any one of them, and they would be a big shot.

Zheng Xinyue is here. If I don’t watch my words, won’t it be embarrassing for others?

Appearance and dressing are the least important thing in a family like the Zhou family. The key is strength. If you have ability, no one will dare to look down on you even if you dress casually.

Gao Huilan glared at Zheng Xinyue and quickly pulled her aside.

"Don't cause trouble for me today. This is not a vegetable market. If you say something wrong, it will bring shame to our family."

Zheng Xinyue didn't dare to refute what her mother-in-law said. After all, the rest of the Zhou family had also arrived at this time.

The old lady gave birth to four children in total, three sons and one daughter.

The younger son came from another province, and the daughter is from the neighboring city. These two are not ordinary people.

The youngest son is Zhou Jianjun, who is doing scientific research in another province. The youngest daughter is Zhou Aiying, who is a mainstay in the art troupe. Her husband is in the army and holds a high position.

When Zhou Jingye and his friends saw their younger brothers and sisters coming, they hurried over to greet them.

The two of them knew more or less about the ridiculous affairs between the first and second wives, but no one mentioned it.

The last time they met, Zheng Wangshu was still Zhou Yunyan's wife, but now she has become Zhou Jingchuan's wife, which is quite dramatic.

Zhou Jingye knew a lot of people, and since the old man didn't come over, they helped greet the guests at the door.

Before these people came, the old man said that he would not accept any gifts and that they just came to sit together and have a chat.

So when people come, they just bring gifts, and no one brings money.

Finally, the old man and the old lady were brought over by the driver. As soon as they entered the venue, they were surrounded by people.

Zheng Wangshu looked at everyone rushing to compliment the old man, and he had a better understanding of the old man's status.

Finally, we got to the point and everyone took their seats.

There weren't many guests, all of them were close friends, and these outsiders sat at the same table.

The Zhou family members sat at a big table. To put it bluntly, it was still a family dinner.

After a while, the waiter started serving the dishes. Zheng Wangshu took a look and was impressed by the delicious food. It showed that the chef here was of high quality.

The old man stood up and said a few words to welcome the guests, then sat down.

People were relatively more comfortable talking to their family members, but even so, Zheng Wangshu still saw that everyone kept their backs straight.

Everyone said some congratulations and flattering words, and then the old man smiled and said, "We are all family, so there is no need to be so polite, and there are no so many rules. Let's eat and talk at the same time."

Since the old man had spoken, everyone naturally started to eat. While eating, the old man and the old lady couldn't help but look at their youngest son and daughter, after all, they were not around most of the time.

Gao Huilan naturally wanted to make her presence felt at this time. It looked like a family gathering, but in fact it was an occasion for showing off to each other.

She felt that her son was quite capable, so she wanted to show off in front of everyone.

"Yun Yan is doing very well at work now. He might even have the hope of becoming the youngest bank president. I hope he can achieve more, but he has to keep up with you and not fall behind. He also absolutely must not bring shame to the Zhou family."

Li Ruhui was listening at the side and couldn't help curling her lips. What youngest bank president? He hasn't even been elected yet and he's already started bragging. It's like he's having a hysterical outburst at a birthday party.

Zheng Xinyue, who was standing by, was also very well-behaved. She offered some congratulations, "Grandpa, I'm doing pretty well in class now. I must study hard and strive to get into university. Since I'm the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, I have to follow everyone's example."

The old man glanced at Zheng Xinyue and nodded slightly.

"Okay, being motivated is a good thing. You and Yun Yan are both good kids."

Zheng Xinyue was secretly delighted with the compliment, and looked at Zheng Wangshu with a hint of pride.

At this time, Gao Huilan looked at Li Ruhui and said directly, "You said Jingchuan is a disobedient child. He is such a smart child, but he doesn't want a stable job and insists on raising pigs. You said that this kind of job is not presentable after all. You should persuade him later."

These words seemed to be well-intentioned, but in fact they were deliberately meant to attract everyone's attention and make the Zhou family look down on Zhou Jingchuan.

Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, everyone looked at Zhou Jingchuan.

Being a self-employed person is not a glorious thing in a big family like the Zhou family, and it is really embarrassing to tell others that you are a pig farmer. Many of them cannot understand it.

Li Ruhui couldn't accept it at first, but now she no longer thinks so. Hearing Gao Huilan slandering her son, she couldn't help but refute.

"No matter what field you're in, someone has to do it. Farming is hard, but without farmers, no one can eat. Pig farming sounds bad, but without pig farming, where would we get pork to eat? Jingchuan is interested in this area, which I think is a good thing. By the way, how much does Yunyan earn a month now?"

Gao Huilan was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said proudly, "Yun Yan's salary is naturally not low. It has now exceeded 100 yuan."

Li Ruhui suddenly laughed. "You see, the idea of a stable job only sounds good. Do you know how much Jingchuan earns a month?"

Gao Huilan suddenly thought of the betrothal money Zhou Jingchuan gave to Zheng Wangshu, and she couldn't laugh.

But now that things have come to this, she can only bite the bullet and ask.

"How much?"

Li Ruhui looked at Zhou Jingchuan beside him, "Jingchuan, go ahead."

Zhou Jingchuan put down his chopsticks with a calm expression.

"It's not bad now. I earn four to five thousand a month."
