Chapter 1766 Engagement Banquet (18)
She could not imagine these two people being separated, who were so close to each other, like conjoined twins. She even thought that it was only natural for them to get engaged now.
Jiang Xiao was silent after hearing this, but his expression became more mysterious. Yu Rou looked at him with a pout, speechless.
She really couldn't figure out her cousin. She was young and didn't understand why he cared so much about Ruan Jiaojiao. So she didn't realize what it meant. When she grew up, she realized it, but she was confused. He
said he didn't like Ruan Jiaojiao, but every time he found out that she had talked to Ruan Jiaojiao on the phone or wrote to her, he would ask her in a roundabout way.
But he liked Ruan Jiaojiao, and he had treated Zhou Yun like a treasure in these years, so that everyone in the Jiang family thought he liked her. Her aunt felt that she owed him, so she didn't care about the family background, and even treated Zhou Yun and her daughter better. She thought that if her cousin wanted to marry Zhou Yun in the future, no one in the Jiang family would object.
But.
Now he was acting like this again, why?
Yu Rou didn't understand, and didn't want to stand with him for no reason, so she walked away quickly with her skirt lifted.
And he was not the only one who disagreed with the marriage, there was another person, that was Duan Sishu.
Ever since Duan Xu’s birthday last time and Duan Sishu made those troubles, Duan Qianyang has tried his best to reduce the number of times Duan Xu meets her. However, on occasions like today, he couldn’t really lock her up at home, so he could only warn her before the banquet started, asking her not to make trouble.
But if Duan Sishu had been obedient, she would not be Duan Sishu.
Duan Sishu didn’t have much opinion about her nephew. Although she felt that his identity was not up to standard, he was still her own nephew after all. In addition, Feng Niannian had advised her before, so she could barely maintain her attitude.
But she looked down on the Ruan family.
It was true that the Shu family was well-known and had status in Beidu, but the Ruan family was at most a third-rate bumpkin in Beidu, a bumpkin with a little more money.
She felt ashamed just thinking about marrying into such a family. She
didn't know what her eldest brother was thinking, especially when they entered the banquet hall and saw how grand the occasion was, with all the good stuff on display and all the guests invited being celebrities from Beidu. She felt her head buzzing as she saw the look on his face as if he was afraid that others wouldn't know that he was marrying into a third-rate country bumpkin family.
Her disdain was clearly written on her face, and it was impossible for the people around her not to see it.
She was already full of curiosity about the Ruan family that suddenly appeared in Beidu, and now she was even more surprised that the young lady of the Ruan family had quietly won over the young master of the Duan family. Some of those who had a good relationship with Duan Sishu couldn't help but surround her and ask her questions.
"Sishu, where is this young lady of the Ruan family from? How come I've never heard of her before?"
Duan Sishu lifted her hair and was about to answer when the other one answered: "Hey, you don't know this? I've heard it all. It seems that the Ruan family is the family that adopted young Master Duan in the past. The reason they got engaged to this family was to repay their kindness. Let me say, Sishu, your nephew is really kind-hearted. He is willing to sacrifice his life to repay his kindness..."
