Qiao Nan: Crap! I am your biological daughter, yet I am treated as if I was picked up from the streets. In fact, you treat me worse than that!
Mother Qiao: Qiao Nan, you are not as pretty or ...
Chapter 855: Wedding Banquet
If Qiao Nan showed the slightest expression of disgust and blame towards Qiao Dongliang at this moment, Qiao Dongliang would only become more and more panicked.
Zhai Yaohui did not lie to him. This girl did have a certain aura of a noble family. If she was nurtured well, she would be quite good.
It's a good seedling!
Mr. Zhai had a good first impression of Qiao Dongliang and Qiao Nan: "The two children have known each other for quite some time. In fact, your daughter is the best, but my grandson is too shameless. However, since the children have made up their minds, Comrade Qiao, what do you think about the two children's matter?"
When it comes to harming his own grandson, Grandpa Zhai is merciless, after all, everything he says is true.
The girl is 20 years old, while my grandson is 26 years old. Moreover, according to the time, when the grandson set his eyes on the girl, she was just a teenager.
If Zhai Sheng didn't have some credibility with Master Zhai, and knew that even if Zhai Sheng liked Qiao Nan, he would never do anything to her, Master Zhai's first reaction after hearing about this would not be to be happy, but to catch Zhai Sheng and beat him up.
So shameless!
"This depends on the old leader's orders." Qiao Dongliang said bluntly without thinking. As long as the Zhai family arranged it, he didn't mind and everything was fine.
Master Zhai turned his gaze and looked at Qiao Nan: "My dear, do you have any ideas?"
"I'll listen to Brother Zhai." Feeling his hand being grabbed hard by Zhai Sheng, Qiao Nan said this very honestly.
In fact, even if Zhai Sheng hadn't reminded him, Qiao Nan would have been prepared to do so, so Zhai Sheng was nervous for nothing.
It's just an engagement, she won't delay.
Old Master Zhai glanced at his grandson. Don't think that he can't see his grandson's movements because of his old eyesight. He even threatened the girl and bullied her by taking advantage of his age. It was really shameless.
Facing the accusatory gaze of Master Zhai, Zhai Sheng not only looked straight ahead, but also had an imposing look on his face, as if the person who had just pinched Qiao Nan's hand was not him at all.
As for Master Zhai's gaze, Zhai Hua simply ignored it.
At this time, let's put the grandfather aside for now, the daughter-in-law is the most important.
"Nannan will have to go to the capital to attend university when school starts. Otherwise, let them get engaged next month, in early August?" After accepting the offer, Miao Liang was very practical and had to coordinate with Qiao Nan's school schedule.
"Okay." Zhai Yaohui clapped his hands and said, "Let's set it on August 1st, Army Day, a good day."
"…but it's the end of July now…" Qiao Nan couldn't help but interrupt.
In other words, if she really wanted to get engaged to Brother Zhai, she would only have less than a week to prepare.
"Let's keep it simple. There's still time. It's just an engagement, there's no need to make it so complicated. August 1st is a good date, a particularly good one, and it has significance. Let's just do it." Qiao Dongliang, who was so excited to see the old leader, didn't have any stance at all. He liked the Zhai family in every way.
"That's right. If you want to have a big wedding, we can wait until they are officially married." Grandpa Zhai also agreed with the date set by his son: "Then let's make it August 1st. Miaomiao, you have to work harder and arrange this matter as soon as possible. Of course, if you are too busy, call that girl Zhai Hua back from the army. I have inquired about it, and she doesn't have any mission in the end. In the army, she is just training new recruits. There are many people in the army who can do these jobs. Let her come back and finish Zhai Sheng's affairs first."
How can it be reasonable for her to spend so much time on her mistress when her younger brother is getting engaged and she is staying away from him?
"Okay." Miao Liang agreed immediately. After waiting for so many years, she was finally going to get married. What she didn't expect was that after all the twists and turns, her son actually liked Qiao Nan. Qiao Nan didn't become her goddaughter, but became her daughter-in-law. Not bad, this result is even better.
Therefore, Zhai Hua, who had just returned to the army, hurried back to the Lie family compound obediently after receiving a call from Miao Liang.
No matter how simple the engagement ceremony is, there must be a banquet and some people must be invited to be witnesses.
The Qiao family had almost no relatives. Originally, they could have invited some of their former neighbors from the compound.
But the last time Qiao Nan encountered trouble during the college entrance examination, wasn't it because a neighbor also took other people's money and dragged Qiao Nan away from going to the examination room, forcing Qiao Nan to go to the hospital instead?
Even if he really wants to invite them, Qiao Dongliang said he has to think carefully about which households to invite.
At least the one I just mentioned, the neighbor who lived close to the Qiao family's courtyard and was always very nice to them when they met, was definitely not to be invited.
No matter how nice he is at ordinary times, he took money from others at the critical moment and harmed Qiao Nan. Why invite such a neighbor?
Anyway, it was already clear at the engagement party hosted by the Zhai family that red envelopes would not be accepted.
So the idea is to let them eat and drink for free, and at the same time broaden their horizons and see these big shots.
There is no such good thing down there.
Zhai Hua finally invited a few of the really good neighbors.
Of course, Qiao Dongliang has invited all the neighbors he has gotten along with particularly well in the past twenty years, except for the one who harmed Qiao Nan. After all, they watched Qiao Nan grow up, so of course everyone should be happy about such a good thing.
In this way, the people to be invited to the banquet by the Qiao family will be decided the fastest.
As for the situation of the Zhai family, Qiao Dongliang said that he could not control it and had no ability to control it. Qiao Dongliang always asked the people of the Zhai family to make a decision.
When the neighbors that Qiao Dongliang invited received the news, they were all extremely surprised: "Nan Nan is engaged just like that?"
"Of course you have to get engaged early, after all, the old chief's son is too old. Nan Nan has always been well behaved, good-looking, and has good grades. I know that when she grows up, she will definitely be a lucky son. Look, she is engaged to the old chief's son this time. When Nan Nan graduates from college, she can get married directly."
"Haha, the reason why we can live here is largely due to the opportunities left by the older generation. In this case, do we have the opportunity to meet the old leader?"
It's not just the old leader. The Zhai family is holding an engagement banquet, and those who come are either not coming or they are all big shots.
When they thought that a poor common person like themselves could meet a great man, everyone who was invited by Qiao Dongliang was very proud and felt that they were so honored.
Only the family that was not invited, and with a guilty conscience, they twisted their lips and said, "Why should we be so happy? This is not a wedding party, it's just an engagement party. You're acting like you've never had it before."
