Rebirth in the 80s: Old Mrs. Tao, Abandoned Son, Dotes on Daughter to Become the Richest Woman

Old Mrs. Tao was cowardly and troublesome. After her husband died in middle age, she raised three ungrateful sons, helping them get married and have children. In her old age, no one took care of he...

Chapter 151 Banquet

They were talking intimately, and before long they had shooed Jiang Huan away.

When Jiang Shuo came to pick up Sun Cuiping, he saw the three of them chatting happily.

His eyes widened in surprise; when had his wife ever gotten along so well with his family?

Every time they argue, Mom gets so angry she looks like a black-boned chicken, and his wife gets so angry she looks like a pufferfish. When they come over, they become the outlet for their anger, and they all start hitting him.

"What are you talking about that makes you so happy?" Jiang Shuo asked with a smile.

"We were talking about Xiaoping," said Madam Jiang with a smile.

"Xiaoping?" Jiang Shuo stared wide-eyed at Old Madam Jiang in disbelief.

When will Mom call me by such an affectionate name? Isn't it always her full name or just "your wife"?

"What kind of expression is that? Jiang Shuo, do you think I would bully your wife? Is it because you stirred up trouble between you and Xiaoping?" Old Madam Jiang glared at Jiang Shuo.

"Mom? When did I stir up trouble between you?" Jiang Shuo felt wronged.

"Jiang Shuo, let's go back first. I have something to discuss with you," Sun Cuiping said softly.

"They won't even give us food?" Jiang Shuo was even more shocked.

Even though we used to argue, they still provided meals.

"Xiaoping, you take him too seriously. You should learn from your sister-in-law and Xiaoying," said Madam Jiang with a hint of disdain.

Jiang Shuo "..."

Jiang Huan: "..." When did my wife stop taking me seriously? My mother is really good at stirring things up.

You should come back less often in the future, otherwise it will definitely affect your relationship with your husband.

Tao Ying was speechless. This old lady was just spouting nonsense.

"Xiaoping, what's wrong? Just tell me." Jiang Shuo was very uneasy.

"I want to ask Xiaoying to help me start a company. I want to return to the stage. Do you agree?" Sun Cuiping looked at Jiang Shuo with some trepidation.

"You start a company?" Jiang Shuo was naturally unhappy. Starting a company and returning to the stage.

He must be so busy, how could he have time to spend with himself? But looking at his wife with expectant eyes.

There was also my mother with a stern face standing to the side, and my sister-in-law with a serious expression.

Jiang Shuo was certain that if he dared to disagree, he would be met with his wife's tears, his mother's scolding, and his sister-in-law's disdain.

There's a possibility that the third brother will also use his fists and feet.

“Yes, I’ll open it with Xiaoying. Xiaoying and Mom support me and don’t mind that I don’t know anything.” Sun Cuiping didn’t say that it was Tao Ying who suggested it, afraid that Jiang Shuo would blame Tao Ying.

It's good that Tao Ying offered to help me, but it wouldn't be good if it led to complaints.

"Let's take it slow and not overexert ourselves," Jiang Shuo said softly.

“If others can do it, why can’t I?” Sun Cuiping disliked Jiang Shuo’s words very much.

Jiang Shuo "..."

"Second sister-in-law, you can definitely do it. You were the best dancer back then, and you sang beautifully too," Jiang Huan said with great certainty.

“Jiang Huan, you still remember him?” Sun Cuiping looked at Jiang Huan in disbelief.

"Of course I remember. You were the most beautiful in the cultural troupe back then. The whole army was secretly talking about you. It was just that my second brother acted quickly," Jiang Huan said without any exaggeration.

"Second sister-in-law is still beautiful; time never defeats a beauty," Tao Ying chimed in.

"It's not as good as you say," Sun Cuiping said somewhat embarrassedly.

“I’m not lying, am I, Mom?” Tao Ying asked Old Madam Jiang with a smile.

"Of course, I still remember what Xiaoping looked like on stage," said Madam Jiang with a smile.

“Mom…” Sun Cuiping’s eyes were red.

"Alright, today's main character should be Xiaoying." Old Madam Jiang couldn't stand the sentimentality anymore.

"Mom, there's no such thing as a main character or not. As long as our family is happy, that's all that matters." Tao Ying didn't care about these things.

"Shall we start eating?" Jiang Shuo suggested in a low voice.

"Okay," Madam Jiang replied with a smile.

After dinner, everyone went home. Once home, Tao Ying took out an A4 sheet of paper and started writing her proposal.

"Xiaoying, what are you doing?" Jiang Huan hugged Tao Ying from behind and rested his head on Tao Ying's shoulder.

“When it comes to writing the proposal, I’m a complete novice at my second sister-in-law’s job. I have to first draw up a big outline and then ask my second sister-in-law to fill in the details,” Tao Ying said earnestly.

Tao Ying is full of energy now, and she's happy to be making money.

"Xiaoying, let's get our marriage certificate today!" Jiang Huan said angrily.

"Sweetie, you go to sleep first, I'll sleep later." Tao Ying gently touched Jiang Huan's cheek.

“Xiaoying, the night is long…” Jiang Huan’s hands began to wander.

"I'm hosting a dinner party tomorrow, and I'm afraid my body won't be able to handle it," Tao Ying sighed.

"Then, just this once." Having just tasted the meat, Jiang Huan was far from giving up.

"Don't you know how long each of your sessions takes?" Tao Ying turned her head and said somewhat angrily.

If she really makes a fool of herself tomorrow, Tao Ying doesn't want to go back to Shanghai.

"Wife, I was wrong." Jiang Huan quickly admitted his mistake.

He didn't dare say anything and obediently trained beside Tao Ying.

The next day, Tao Ying started getting ready early.

I arrived at the hotel half an hour early, and by then, there were already many people there.

Madam Jiang and Zhao Shengnan introduced Tao Ying to everyone one by one.

After introducing everyone, we arrived at Xia Wenjing's place.

"Congratulations." Xia Wenjing looked at Tao Ying, who had completely changed, and felt a little bitter.

At first, Xia Wenjing never took Tao Ying seriously.

Even if Jiang Huan had taken a liking to Tao Ying back then, Xia Wenjing only thought it was a joke.

Jiang Huan, who is so outstanding, how could he possibly fall for a widowed old woman from a small town?

But now, seeing Tao Ying standing in front of him, she seemed like a completely different person.

Xia Wenjing couldn't understand why the Jiang family cared so much about Tao Ying.

Just like when I lost Jiang Jiang.

Xia Wenjing knew in his heart that he did not like Jiang Jiang, but Jiang Jiang's existence greatly satisfied Xia Wenjing's vanity.

Now that Jiang Jiang dislikes Xia Wenjing, Xia Wenjing's career is not going so smoothly.

"Thank you, Commander Xia," Tao Ying said politely.

Xia Wenjing looked much older. It had only been a little over two years since I last saw him, but he seemed to have aged ten years.

"Why would you invite Xia Wenjing?" Tao Ying asked Jiang Huan in a low voice after they left.

“Now, whenever there’s something going on at home, Mom will ask the Xia family for help,” Jiang Huan whispered to Tao Ying.

Tao Ying “…”

Although Madam Jiang said she hadn't invited many people, many of them came uninvited.

There was no other way but to add extra tables temporarily.

Some of these uninvited guests wanted to curry favor with the Jiang family. Others wanted to see just how many eyes Jiang Huan had in his head when he married that old lady.

But when they arrived, they were completely taken aback.

Is this a woman who is nearly fifty years old?

Are you kidding me?

The rumor is probably wrong; she's probably thirty-five.

After seeing off all the guests, Tao Ying felt her face was stiff from smiling so much.

However, this also marked the beginning of the first battle for his status.
