Although she went from being a truly rich second generation to a bankrupt negative second generation, it has to be said that everyone in the Yue family has been treating her impeccably well these days.
Although Yue's father had no talent for business, it did not prevent him from loving his daughter wholeheartedly. Even if he would be criticized and scolded in the future, he still wanted to find a good marriage for his daughter and settle her down.
Butler Wang and others were even more responsive to her requests and took great care of her. They were completely different from the butlers in the past who were paid to do things and look after her. She could feel that they cared about her from the bottom of their hearts.
But at the same time, she was also very clear that the reason they were nice to her was because she was "Yue Feiying", not because of herself.
So she always reminded herself to distance herself and stay sober. After her six-month marriage with Qi Shengzhi ended, she would have the money and leisure to travel around the world happily with Shao Jingque without having to worry about anything else.
But now, seeing the two elderly "old men" looking so worried, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
Then I heard Yue Jialiang ask Butler Wang:
"Has the Qi family sent the betrothal gift?"
Speaking of the betrothal gift, Butler Wang looked embarrassed:
"We originally agreed to deliver it on Monday, but Madam Qi said that the gifts should be placed on the reception table on the day of the wedding banquet to make it lively. It's so troublesome to go back and forth. After the wedding banquet is set up, it will be delivered directly to the young lady and her husband's new room."
When he heard that the betrothal gift had not arrived, Yue Jialiang frowned even more.
The wedding banquet for the marriage between the Yue and Qi families was held in Xiefang Garden, and the expenses were naturally borne by the Qi family. However, Yue Jialiang still had to worry about Yue Feiying's wedding attire, which was also a considerable expense for the current Yue family.
Although he had prepared a dowry for Yue Feiying in advance, it was far from enough compared to the generous betrothal gift from the Qi family. He had originally thought that when the betrothal gift arrived, he would shamelessly pick out some gold jewelry from it to add to Yue Feiying's dowry, so that Yue Feiying could get married more gloriously.
Now that the betrothal gifts have not been delivered, he can only think of other ways.
Yue Jialiang thought for a moment, took off the Rolex on his wrist, and handed it to Butler Wang:
"If you use this as collateral, you should be able to get one or two thousand. You can also buy Yingying some gold jewelry. We don't want people to think that our daughter of the Yue family is marrying off in such a shabby way."
Steward Wang frowned:
"Sir, you will be present at the wedding banquet, so you must also take care of your dignity."
On the day of the wedding banquet, many political and business celebrities in Ning City will be in attendance. If Yue Jialiang wants to make a comeback in Ning City in the future, he must not lose face in front of those people at that time.
Butler Wang remembered that the old man of the Yue family once said that clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. Businessmen should respect the clothes first and then the people. Some good looks must be done before there is a chance to talk further.
Having said that, Yue Jialiang felt as if a huge stone was blocking his heart whenever he thought that others might look down on his daughter because of this.
Besides, he has come to realize these days that he is not cut out for business. It is hard to say whether he will ever make a comeback, so why bother pursuing these superficial things?
He waved his hand and put the watch into Butler Wang's hand:
"Listen to me, take it as collateral and go to Fengxiang Tower to make a few more pairs of dragon and phoenix bracelets for Yingying."
"Sir, please keep the watch. I'll think of something else. My old lady still has a few old gold bracelets..."
The two were arguing when they suddenly heard a cold and indifferent voice coming from the stairs:
"What dragon and phoenix bracelet? It's so tacky, I don't want it!"
Yue Jialiang smiled as soon as he heard the voice, and pretended to be angry and said:
"How can it be unfashionable? You little kid doesn't understand. The more you wear, the more glorious it is. Our Yingying wants to marry in style and be the bride that everyone envies."
Yue Feiying had no interest in being the bride that everyone envied. She didn't understand what kind of mentality it was that Yue Jialiang was thinking about adding icing on the cake for her when he was already in a situation where he had no food to eat. It was totally unscientific!
As she listened to the conversation between the two, she felt inexplicably upset by Yue Jialiang's pretentious behavior, so she couldn't help but go downstairs to stop his ridiculous idea.
"I've decided to wear the same white lace dress my mother wore on my wedding day. I don't want any accessories. Even if you buy them for me, I won't wear them!"
It was not surprising at all to hear these spoiled words coming from Yue Feiying's mouth. Instead, it made Yue Jialiang's eyes red. He didn't expect that his daughter still remembered every detail of her mother's past.
His wife Su Wanqing was a Chinese whom he met when he was studying in Country E. Unlike him, who was the eldest son of a wealthy family, Su Wanqing was just a poor student who was sponsored to study abroad.
Once on his way to school, his wallet was stolen by a thief, so he got on the bus and found that he had no money to buy a ticket. It was Su Wanqing, who was also Chinese, who stepped forward to buy a ticket for him and helped him out. That was how the two met.
Because of this, Su Wanqing always thought that Yue Jialiang was a poor student like her, and she took good care of him in life. As time went by, the two fell in love with each other and gradually developed into an ordinary sweet couple on campus.
On the day Su Wanqing attended the graduation ceremony, she deliberately put on the white lace dress that she had always been reluctant to wear, and draped over it a black bachelor's gown with red edges. She also wore a bachelor's cap and stood in the crowd taking photos, waving to Yue Jialiang.
That gentle and spirited smile made Yue Jialiang immediately determine that she was his future wife. An unprecedented impulse arose in his heart. He didn't even prepare a ring, but imitated the way the foreigners around him proposed marriage and knelt down on one knee in front of everyone.
He would never forget Su Wanqing's surprised and joyful expression at that time. With red eyes and nose, she nodded and agreed to his proposal amid the well-intentioned cheers of the crowd.
He picked her up in ecstasy and ran across the lawn. At that moment, he felt as satisfied as if he had the whole world.
After they graduated, Su Wanqing decided to stay in Country E to work. Yue Jialiang of course stayed with her and finally told her the truth about his family situation, which really scared Su Wanqing.
Later, with the birth of Yue Feiying, they formed a happy family of three. Su Wanqing continued to do her work, and Yue Jialiang's business became better and better.
Yue Feiying thought her life would continue to be so happy, but it came to an abrupt end when she was six years old. A speeding car lost control and hit Su Wanqing who was walking on the sidewalk, taking her life instantly.
The most unfair thing about God is that the drunk driver who caused the accident only suffered minor skin injuries, while Yue Jialiang and Yue Feiying lost their beloved wife and mother forever.
After that, because his wife had said that she hoped the child could stay in Country E to study in the future, Yue Jialiang took on the role of both father and mother to Yue Feiying in Country E. It was not until his business went bankrupt and he could no longer maintain a normal life that he had to take his daughter back to China.
Yue Jialiang looked at his daughter, who had grown into a beautiful young lady, and through his tearful eyes he saw Su Wanqing back then:
"When you were little, you loved to secretly wear your mother's white dress and squeeze your feet into her high heels, saying that you were the most beautiful Snow White in the world..."
