Chapter 229 Showing Off to the Fullest
Feng Tianyu remained silent for a moment, then calmly said, "I've been too busy these past two days, and my eyes are a little blurry."
"Oh." Mrs. Feng said coldly, patiently tossing her hair again.
Feng Tianyu finally noticed the jade bracelet on her wrist: "This bracelet..."
Madam Feng's eyes brightened slightly. She gently rested her chin on the back of her hand, allowing Feng Tianyu to examine it more closely: "It was a gift from someone else. Is it pretty?"
At that moment, Feng Tianyu's brainwaves finally connected with his mother's.
"It's beautiful. This bracelet has excellent clarity, a good base, and a bright color. You can't see any impurities. It's a rare gem. The person who gave it to you put a lot of thought into it."
Finally, Mrs. Feng heard what she wanted to hear, and smiled contentedly: "I think so too."
Upon hearing her words, Feng Tianyu seemed to have thought of something and tentatively asked, "Are you planning to attend some kind of banquet?"
"We do have this plan."
"Have a good time."
"Okay. You go ahead and get busy. The sooner you finish, the sooner you can go see them."
"Um."
Feng's mother hung up the video call with satisfaction, but Feng Tianyu stared at the black screen, lost in thought.
A moment later, he pressed the intercom to call Guan Xian in.
"Boss, you wanted to see me?"
"Check if there are any particularly enthusiastic...men of the opposite sex around my mom."
Guan Xuan was taken aback: "You mean..."
"I'm just asking you to investigate; don't do anything rash."
Feng Tianyu's father had passed away many years ago, but he didn't object to his mother finding a second spring.
But before that, he needs to confirm whether his mother's second spring is reliable.
Completely unaware that her act of showing off the bracelet was misunderstood by her son as someone pursuing her intensely, Ms. Feng hung up the phone and looked at the bracelet on her wrist for a long time, liking it more and more the more she looked at it.
Not content with showing off to her son, she then asked Du Yihuan and the old housekeeper to quickly call her girlfriends and invite them over for afternoon tea.
After making the appointment, he seemed to remember something, and his eyes flickered slightly: "Invite Mrs. Li and Mrs. Yuan as well."
Du Yihuan was taken aback for a moment, then quickly remembered a certain young lady from one of these two ladies' families. She looked up and exchanged a knowing glance with Mama Feng, and smiled knowingly.
Feng's mother's younger sister was naturally a well-known wealthy woman in the upper-class circle of City A. Some of her family's wealth was not much different from her husband's family. It can be said that she was a pampered young lady who grew up before marriage. Her every move exuded a noble and extravagant air that ordinary people did not have.
However, these wealthy women who were close to Feng's mother were all good-tempered and easy to get along with, despite their wealth.
Apart from……
"What brings you here today, Mrs. Feng? You've taken the initiative to invite us for afternoon tea. It seems you're in a good mood after taking your second young lady out for a day of fun?"
Mrs. Feng picked up her coffee, took a sip, and smiled slightly. "Look at what you're saying. I haven't spent much time in City A throughout the year, so naturally I haven't had many opportunities to meet with you. I came to see you as soon as I got back, but you sound like you're quite resentful of me."
"How could I dare?" Mrs. Yuan replied with a smile, but her eyes darted around. "Speaking of which, we haven't seen Mrs. Feng's two children in a long time. Since you've come all this way today, why don't we call them out to meet you? Otherwise, we might not recognize them if we meet them somewhere in the future."
Upon hearing Mrs. Yuan's words, the expressions of everyone present varied.
The Feng family currently has two children: one is the rightful heir of the Feng family and the current head of the Feng Group, and the other is the adopted daughter of the Feng family whose name has not even been changed.
On an occasion like today, with only women present, it would have been sufficient to simply call out Du Yihuan. However, Mrs. Yuan insisted on emphasizing the two children, clearly indicating that her true intentions lay elsewhere.
The ladies present immediately understood, considering that the Yuan family had a young lady of similar age to the eldest son of the Feng family. However, no one pointed it out, and they all raised their glasses to wait and see what would happen.
"Tianyu has been quite busy lately. Yihuan is at home, but she just went out. Judging by the time, she should be back soon."
As soon as you speak of the devil, Du Yihuan walks over from the other side of the garden.
"Mom, hello to all the aunties."
Several of the aunts who were close to Feng's mother were quite familiar with Du Yihuan, and some of them even considered making her their daughter-in-law.
Upon seeing her approach, they immediately and warmly invited her to sit down next to them.
"Where has Yihuan gone with your mom all this time?"
"I went to R country and M country, saw the ancient castles and the sea, and also went to see the cherry blossoms."
"The cherry blossoms are really beautiful at this time of year. My husband said the other day that he would take me to see them when things are less busy at work."
"Alright, alright, I know you two have a good relationship, stop showing off. It makes me angry just thinking about it. A few days ago, my daughter told me that this month is cherry blossom season and it's a good time to go on a trip to see the cherry blossoms."
"I realized it had been a long time since I'd gone out for a walk, so I went to my husband and hinted at it for ages. What did he do? After listening to all that, he actually told me that there was a cherry blossom grove in the city and that he would drive us there himself when he had time this weekend. I was so angry."
"Hahaha, that's the kind of thing your partner would do. So what are you planning to do? Really go to the city to see the cherry blossoms?"
"You think you can get rid of me like that? You wish! I've decided to take my daughter with me and leave him at home alone. We'll pick him up when he's ready to reflect on his actions."
Most people assume that wealthy women like them, when they get together, like to chat about designer clothes, bags, and fashion trivia.
In reality, wealthy women who have good relationships with each other, like most women, tend to chat about everyday matters. Those with happy families, needless to say, are always looking for ways to show off their affection.
After chatting for a while, they remembered to ask Du Yihuan, "Yihuan, did you just go out? What did you go to do?"
"Send something? What kind of thing?"
Seeing that the group had gotten to the point, Madam Feng immediately interjected, "Yi Huan recently acquired a piece of violet jade. It has excellent clarity and a beautiful color, making it perfect for a pendant. Coincidentally, Allen recently needed a rare piece of jewelry to seek inspiration, and he immediately took a liking to Yi Huan's piece, so he personally sent someone to pick it up."
"Allen? Is that Master Allen, the chief jewelry designer at Katherine?"
"It's him."
"The jade that caught Master Allen's eye must be a rare treasure. It's a pity we were just a little short. If we had come earlier, we might have been able to catch a glimpse of it."
Hearing everyone's regrets, Feng's mother was secretly delighted. The gift from her future daughter-in-law was naturally the best!
