Chapter 137 Finding Fault
Old Yang said this and handed an invitation to Chen Baomei.
marry?
Chen Baomei took the invitation suspiciously and opened it.
The invitation said:
Groom: Yang Shulin Bride: Fang Rong
Chen Baomei's mind was full of black lines.
Isn’t Fang Rong the teacher Fang who came to the senior citizens’ university?
She had previously helped Old Yang to set up a matchmaking service, and Old Yang had even gone to her house to act as a matchmaker for her. How long had it been, and they were already together?
Originally, Chen Baomei thought that Fang Rong was tricked into coming to her house by Old Yang, but seeing that her attitude was okay, Chen Baomei didn't give her any face.
At that time, Fang Rong said that she had no plans to find another partner, and Old Yang looked as if being with Fang Rong was an insult to him, but they ended up getting together.
These two people are really interesting.
Old Yangtou: "This Saturday afternoon, at the Arc de Triomphe Hotel, you must come to witness the happiness of Arong and me."
Seeing Chen Baomei's calm face, Old Yang couldn't help but say:
"It turns out that I didn't succeed with you, but it made Arong and I a happy marriage. Although we are old and this is our second marriage, I have prepared everything Arong needs. For the betrothal gift alone, I gave this amount!"
Old Yang looked proud and boastful, and stretched out his hand to count with Chen Baomei.
"One hundred and ten thousand yuan? That's a lot!"
Chen Baomei looked surprised.
Old Yang, who looks so stingy and frugal, can actually give Teacher Fang a betrothal gift of 100,000 yuan. It's really good.
Nowadays, even some young people who are getting married for the first time cannot afford this amount of betrothal gift.
I didn't expect that Old Yang was so generous to Teacher Fang. No wonder Teacher Fang, who had been a widow for so many years, was moved.
"What do you mean by 110,000 yuan? Baomei, are you going to buy gold jewelry again?"
Sister Ma and several of her classmates walked out of the classroom one after another.
When Sister Ma heard Chen Baomei say 110,000, she thought Chen Baomei was going to buy gold again.
Chen Baomei waved her hands. "Oh, no, it's Teacher Fang and Old Yang. They're getting married. Old Yang was generous and gave Teacher Fang a betrothal gift of 110,000 yuan!"
The old ladies all clicked their tongues and their eyes changed when they looked at Old Yang.
The eldest sister laughed and punched Old Yang, "Not bad, Old Yang, I didn't expect you to be so honest!"
Old Yang's smile froze on his face, and a look of embarrassment flashed across his expression.
"Haha." Old Yang pulled the corners of his mouth awkwardly.
"They are both old, and they still think of giving each other a betrothal gift when they remarry. That's really thoughtful."
"Teacher Fang's conditions are very good. The 110,000 yuan betrothal gift is well worth it."
"Old Yang, congratulations to you and Teacher Fang. Please treat us to some wedding candy so we can share in your good luck."
Old Yang replied with a stiff upper lip: "Okay, I will."
Chen Baomei returned the invitation to Old Yang.
"I'm sorry, I had to pick up my child from school that day, so I couldn't come. I wish you happiness."
The banquet was to be held this Saturday afternoon, and it just so happened that Chen Baomei was going to help Shen Ru pick up Jiang Qiqi at this time.
Since they were not particularly close friends, Chen Baomei felt there was no need to go.
Chen Baomei felt uncomfortable when she thought about what these two people had done.
Old Yang had sent the invitation to Chen Baomei specifically because he wanted her to come and see the scene. What would she miss if she refused him?
In order to make the scene beautiful, he also invited a wedding company to decorate the scene, and even chose the highest-end 5888 perfect couple banquet at the hotel.
What if Chen Baomei doesn’t go?
So he pushed the invitation back.
In a reproachful tone, he asked, "It's Saturday, why are you picking up a child? Comrade Baomei, are you making excuses to refuse because you don't want to come?"
Chen Baomei straightened her expression and said that she had already said it was inconvenient. No matter whether she had something real or fake, she meant that she would not go.
Everyone else has refused, so why is he still asking with such a shameless face?
Chen Baomei doesn't indulge him and doesn't want to give face to anyone anymore.
She got straight to the point: "It's not an excuse, but I really don't want to go. Old Yang, let's just be ordinary classmates, just meeting each other. It's normal for me not to want to go. Do you need my gift money?"
Old Yang didn't expect that Chen Baomei would not hide her feelings at all and not give her any face at all.
His old face was red and hot, and he didn't know whether he was embarrassed or angry.
Chen Baomei stuffed the invitation into his arms and left with Sister Ma.
Old Yang was so angry that he just stared blankly, but he could do nothing about Chen Baomei.
After rejecting Old Yang's invitation, Chen Baomei thought the matter was over.
Who knew that when she arrived at school the next day, Old Yang and Fang Rong came running to find her.
The two ignored each other, as if they had just had an argument.
Old Yang had a sullen face and said to Chen Baomei in a bad mood, "Chen Baomei, tell me, was it you who spread the rumor about the 110,000 yuan betrothal gift?"
"ah?"
Chen Baomei was confused.
She didn't understand what was going on between the two of them. Why were they both staring at her?
Fang Rong's eyes were red and she said angrily:
"Everyone at school is saying I accepted 110,000 yuan in betrothal gifts from Old Yang. They're saying I'm an old cucumber painted green to look young, and that I'm asking for a higher betrothal gift than a virgin. But I only accepted 10,010 yuan from Old Yang. Where did the rumor of 110,000 yuan come from?"
"Baomei, everyone says they heard it from you. Tell me, is it true?"
As soon as she arrived at school today, someone congratulated Fang Rong, and Fang Rong responded with a smile.
Then someone asked her about her relationship with Old Yang, and she found out that everyone was saying that she had accepted a betrothal gift of 110,000 yuan from Old Yang.
In fact, Fang Rong only took 10,001 yuan from Old Yang, which meant it was a good omen that she was chosen from among the best.
She asked who spread the news, but no one knew.
She was so angry that she went to the bathroom to wipe her tears, and then she heard someone in the bathroom saying that she was an old cucumber painted green, and she wanted a sky-high bride price at her age.
Fang Rong immediately went to find Old Yang to argue and asked him if he was the one who spread the news.
So the two of them started arguing.
Fang Rong held on to Old Yang, and Old Yang then remembered what happened yesterday and put the blame on Chen Baomei.
Anyway, the 110,000 yuan betrothal gift money did come from Chen Baomei's mouth.
Chen Baomei was so angry that she laughed.
This old Yang is really weird.
It turns out that the two ones he compared himself to yesterday were actually 10,001, not 110,000.
It's just a tiny amount of money, how could he have the nerve to show off in that tone?
"Who is that other person? Tell me the name and I'll confront her."
Fang Rong looked embarrassed.
Old Yang snorted angrily, "As for those people who were with Ma Guizhi yesterday, Ma Guizhi can also testify. Did you say anything or not?"
Ma Guizhi is Sister Ma.
Sister Ma, who came to watch the fun, looked a little unhappy.
Fang Rong said to Sister Ma, "Guizhi, tell me, was that what Baomei said? You are an honest person, I believe you would not lie."
Sister Ma's eyes moved back and forth between the smug Old Yang and the calm Chen Baomei.
She was very conflicted.
Chen Baomei: "Sister Ma, just tell the truth. No one will blame you."
Sister Ma sighed and said angrily, "Baomei was right about what she said, but Old Yang was there, and he didn't refute it himself!"
