After seven days of leisure, Si Fengnian and Bai Qingfeng had almost finished their business. Bai Qingfeng negotiated for two production lines and also helped Si Fengnian to secure a batch of machine tools to aid the domestic market.
This batch of machine tools was extremely valuable, and most of the wealth that Si Fengnian and Ji Yuanhui had accumulated over the years was spent on them. Although the real estate was still there, the small amount of wealth left in their hands was not enough to compare with Bai Qingfeng. For ordinary people, it was still an astronomical figure.
While they were discussing returning home, Bai Qingfeng received an invitation.
Looking at the neat words on the handwritten invitation, Bai Qingfeng frowned and asked Jenny, "Who sent it over?"
Jenny answered respectfully, "It was sent by the Ge family's housekeeper."
When Song Yun heard the name Ge Family, she couldn't help but ask, "My aunt's surname is also Ge, are we relatives?"
Bai Qingfeng nodded, "It's Ruan Ruan and Shu Ting's maternal grandparents, but we and the Ge family have long since parted ways. We haven't had any contact for many years. I don't know what they're thinking by sending me an invitation now."
Song Yun asked, "Dang?"
Bai Qingfeng didn't want to break up and didn't want to have anything to do with the Ge family anymore.
But there was a sentence written on the invitation that made him a little concerned.
"My father is ill, and I hope to see my good son-in-law."
Bai Qingfeng didn't have any feelings towards the old man of the Ge family. He couldn't say he liked him, nor did he hate him. What he hated was the old lady of the Ge family. The old lady of the Ge family was not his wife Ge Meilin's biological mother, but her stepmother. Naturally, she was not kind to Ge Meilin, and could even be said to be very harsh.
When he and Ge Meilin were getting married, the old lady of the Ge family had obstructed their marriage, which puzzled him at the time.
The Bai family was one of the most wealthy and prestigious families in Beijing back then. Although the Ge family was also good, it was still a little inferior to the Bai family.
Later, we learned that it was Ge Meilin's stepmother who didn't want Ge Meilin to marry such a young man, and asked Mr. Ge to change the bride and let her daughter Ge Meizhen marry into the Bai family.
But Mr. Ge was not confused. He knew that Bai Qingfeng was not interested in the Ge family, but in Ge Meilin. He did not agree with his stepmother's proposal, and personally arranged for Ge Meilin to have a generous dowry.
The Bai and Ge families had close relations, and the Ge family's half-brothers and sisters who had the same father as Ge Meilin also showed great affection towards her.
Later, the Bai family moved to Gangcheng, and the Ge family moved with them. Relying on their relationship with Bai Qingfeng, they were able to do well in Gangcheng.
Later, Bai Qingfeng moved to Country Y. Naturally, the Ge family would not let go of such a powerful person, so they followed him here.
Bai Qingfeng originally thought that the relationship between the Bai and Ge families was very strong. Since they were both living in a foreign country, they would naturally take good care of the Ge family, and the Ge family would quickly gain a foothold in Country Y.
But who would have thought that it was this Ge family that would be the first to throw stones at the Bai family when they were in crisis and needed their help.
Maybe the Ge family thought that Bai Qingfeng would never be able to make a comeback.
Unfortunately, they were wrong. Bai Qingfeng turned the tables in just one month.
From then on, he and the Ge family drew a clear line between themselves and the Ge family. Ge Meilin also completely left her natal family and her father behind. Her stepmother was in charge of the family, while her son was in charge of the family outside. Her stepmother and her children were only superficially loyal to her. If she hadn't married well and had a capable husband, she could imagine the ugly faces of the Ge family with her toes.
Anyway, she had no brothers or sisters from the same mother, so separation from the Ge family was not a big deal to her.
Over the years, he had never heard Meilin mention the Ge family, but he knew in his heart that Meilin still cared about her father-in-law. After all, he was her biological father and had truly loved her when she was a child.
"Dang."
Just think of it as being for Meilin.
Perhaps Mr. Ge missed his eldest daughter and wanted to ask him about Meilin's news. This is also human nature.
Although it was just a banquet among relatives, Song Yun was still worried about letting her uncle go alone, so she insisted on going with him to the Ge family.
