The guests below began to show mocking faces. This guy really did marry into the Su family, yet he could give such a stingy gift. The money used to buy that general's jade was probably his mother's retirement money!
"Xueyi, you're amazing! You've found a wonderful husband. He's given our grandfather such a precious gift."
Su Huai'an immediately laughed.
Upon hearing this, Su Xueyi immediately glared at him, her expression extremely uncomfortable. Then she looked helplessly at Ye Chen, thinking that the 100,000 yuan she had given him shouldn't have been used to buy such a small thing!
Jiang Yiqing was furious and couldn't control herself. She rushed forward, pointed at Ye Chen's nose, and cursed, "You little bastard, did you come here on purpose to cause trouble today? You actually gave the old man... what kind of garbage is this!"
Jiang Yiqing glared angrily at the General Jade in the plate, then slapped it away!
Upon seeing this, Ye Chen quickly reached out and caught it, then looked at Jiang Yiqing with displeasure.
Seeing that she hadn't managed to knock the General Jade away with her bare hands, and that Ye Chen was still glaring at her like that, Jiang Yiqing became even angrier. Her eyes widened suddenly, and she yelled at Ye Chen furiously, "You little bastard, how dare you glare at me like that? You think you're so great? Believe me or not, I'll give you the Su family's family discipline right here in front of all the guests today!"
Jiang Yiqing was really considering it, after all, Ye Chen had made their family lose face by sending such a thing!
Su Wanhe's face was also ashen; this son-in-law was utterly incompetent!
Su Huai'an watched with great interest from the side. He thought this kid was so tough, daring to challenge him in the banquet hall. Now, in front of his mother-in-law, he was being scolded like a dog. It was so satisfying for him!
Su Huai'an almost burst out laughing.
Su Xueyi's face grew increasingly grim as she began to regret not having properly inspected the gift; otherwise, things wouldn't have escalated to this point.
Su Heyan remained silent. Since Ye Chen showed him such disrespect, the Su family should teach him a lesson!
"Can you please not get so angry? You're not getting any younger. Getting angry all the time damages your skin, don't you know that?"
Ye Chen looked at Jiang Yiqing with a somewhat cold tone and said.
"What did you say? Who's old? Who has bad skin!"
Jiang Yiqing exploded, instantly transforming from a dignified and elegant woman into a shrew. She even tried to push Ye Chen, but Su Xueyi quickly pulled her back, saying, "Mom, don't be impulsive!"
"You brat, let him go! I have to teach him a lesson today, or he won't know how to be a good son-in-law of the Su family!"
Jiang Yiqing struggled in Su Xueyi's hands, her face flushed, and her eyes were filled with hatred for Ye Chen!
It's incredibly rude of her to lecture her mother-in-law like that in this kind of setting!
"Ye Chen, apologize to my mother right now!"
Seeing her mother struggling so fiercely, Su Xueyi quickly spoke to Ye Chen.
"Apologize to my wife right now!"
Su Wanhe was also furious. Although his wife often beat and scolded him, she was still the love of his life.
Moreover, Ye Chen is just a son-in-law who has married into the family, and his words just now were far too arrogant. He really needs to be taught a lesson!
"Did you hear me, you country bumpkin? Apologize to my aunt right now, or I'll divorce you today!"
Su Huai'an also joined in the fire, his words extremely insulting. However, Ye Chen wasn't angry at all. Instead, he smiled and stared at the old man: "Grandpa, aren't you sure you want to put in a good word for me?"
As he asked this question, he also intentionally or unintentionally shook the general's jade in his hand.
Su Heyan looked at Ye Chen strangely, but didn't think much of it. She just turned her face away and didn't say a word to him!
Does he think face is worthless?
He's been humiliated so badly today, the Su family must teach him a lesson!
Su Huai'an immediately became displeased when he saw Ye Chen speaking to the old man like that. He curled his lip and angrily cursed Ye Chen: "Damn it, who do you think you are? What right do you have to ask my grandfather to speak up for you?"
He wondered if Ye Chen had lost his mind. Not to mention that he was just a lowly son-in-law who had married into the family, he had given the old man such a cheap gift today, making him lose face. Would the old man still speak up for him?
Are you kidding me?!
The son-in-law who moved in with his wife's family is incredibly stupid!
"Grandpa, think it over carefully. Do you want to speak up for me? This is a really good thing. It's worth 88,000 yuan, which means you'll be rich and prosperous. It's also a general's jade, which has the auspicious meaning of an old man conquering battlefields. It's perfect for you. It will ensure you have good health and live a long life!"
Ye Chen said a lot, hoping that the old man could say a few words on his behalf. However, as soon as he said this, a burst of laughter erupted from below. It was worth less than 88,000 or 100,000 yuan. Just as they thought, the gift was too cheap!
The gifts given by ordinary guests here are worth at least 120,000 yuan. He, the son-in-law of the Su family, actually gave a gift worth 88,000 yuan, and even said something about getting rich... How can such a small amount of money bring any good fortune? He really is a poor country boy, so ignorant. Does he think that saying a few auspicious words and rhymes can make the old man happy?
What do you mean by "old scoundrel fighting on the battlefield"... They'd laugh themselves to death. At his age, the old man probably just wants to enjoy his retirement!
As expected, Su Heyan was even angrier. He glared fiercely at Ye Chen, thinking that this guy must be an idiot, or did he have some scandal with the Su family that he had to make the Su family lose face before he would stop? He roared and turned his head away again, clearly not wanting to see Ye Chen even once more!
Jiang Yiqing understood the old man's meaning and immediately ordered, "Guards, give Ye Chen the family discipline!"
Instantly, several servants from the Su family rushed forward.
