Chapter 194: Are You Lying?
"It looks good! It looks good! It's really beautiful!" The old lady, who had reacted, couldn't stop smiling.
The old lady and Jian Qingyi had met several times before in winter, when they were both wearing thick down jackets, so their figures could hardly be seen.
These days, Jian Qingyi mostly wears loose skirts.
It looks empty.
The old lady always thought that Jian Qingyi was very thin, and she and Wang Ma tried to find ways to help Jian Qingyi with dietary supplements.
She was afraid that her great-grandchildren would have no food to eat in the future.
Unexpectedly...
She was worrying too much!
Yunlai Hotel is really lively today.
The red silk hanging in Yunlai Hotel can be seen from several streets away.
When Jian Qingyi and his group arrived, Lu Yaozong, Qin Mengjie and Lu Xingning were already standing at the door to greet the guests.
Lu Yaozong was dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, a very conventional outfit.
On the other hand, Qin Mengjie looked intelligent and noble in her silver-white cheongsam.
Standing together with Lu Yaozong, they are truly a perfect match.
Lu Xingning, who was standing next to the two of them, was wearing a light pink dress, which made her look delicate and cute.
Both sides of the street were also filled with people who came to watch the fun.
after all……
Everyone knows that Yunlai Hotel is a notorious den of money in Beijing.
Any dish costs double digits, and a table of dishes can easily cost thousands.
Who wouldn’t want to see which sucker is holding an engagement party here?
When Jian Qingyi and his group got out of the car, everyone's eyes were focused on them.
"Sister-in-law..." Lu Xingning's attention was all on Jian Qingyi's cheongsam.
Perhaps it was because the sun had come out, the phoenix with spread wings embroidered with gold thread was very dazzling.
The distinct golden feathers seem to be flying in the wind and soaring into the sky.
The phoenix holds its head high, its eyes are sharp and determined, showing an impressive nobility.
"Sister-in-law, did you also embroider the golden phoenix on your body yourself?" Lu Xingning's eyes were starry.
I want to reach out and touch it, but I'm afraid of breaking it.
Jian Qingyi smiled and nodded.
"Sister-in-law..." Lu Xingning just opened his mouth to say something.
"Hurry up and help greet the guests." Lu Yujing interrupted directly, not giving her a chance to speak at all.
"Brother, please, please, I just want to say a few words to my sister-in-law..." Lu Xingning clasped his hands together.
"Don't say a word, just go!" Lu Yujing knew what she wanted to do.
"Sister-in-law..." Since his brother's approach was blocked, Lu Xingning could only ask for help from his sister-in-law.
"Okay!" Jian Qingyi nodded with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, do you know what I am going to say?" Lu Xingning looked expectant.
"Want a hand-embroidered cheongsam?!" Jian Qingyi chuckled.
Lu Xingning nodded immediately.
"Let's wait for two days! I have something to do these two days. I will help you embroider after I finish the things at hand." Jian Qingyi originally planned to embroider one each for the sisters Lu Xingning and Lu Xingyue.
"Thank you, sister-in-law!" Lu Xingning showed his big white teeth happily.
"This is just the first time, it won't happen again." Lu Yujing frowned.
The young wife is not an embroiderer.
Want to wear a hand-embroidered cheongsam without going to a tailor shop?!
"I know!" Lu Xingning agreed obediently.
When the Lu family arrived, many people became restless.
If you can get close to the Lu family, it will be like rising to the top in Beijing.
But because of Lu Yujing's reputation, no one dared to step forward for a while.
The discussions on the roadside never stopped.
"The one wearing the bright red cheongsam is today's bride, right?" someone asked.
"What bride?! Today is an engagement party, not a wedding banquet." Someone spoke up immediately.
"The engagement party is held in Yunlai Hotel?!" The person who spoke earlier was stunned.
How much money does one have to have to hold the engagement party at Yunlai Hotel?
"What do you know? The daughter of my younger brother's aunt's sister-in-law works as a waitress at Yunlai Hotel. People say that the man getting engaged today is the big boss of Yunlai Hotel. If the engagement isn't held at their own place, where else can it be held?!" An insider came out to reveal the information.
"No wonder. I was wondering, who is so rich that they would come to Yunlai Hotel to get engaged? It turns out it's their own hotel."
…
The people on the street were talking lively, and the people in the Yunlai Hotel were also chatting animatedly.
Zhou Chenfeng and He Qian helped Lu Yujing greet the comrades and brothers who came from afar.
All the members of the Lu family were also sent out to greet relatives and friends.
Lu Yujing took Jian Qingyi's hand and walked around the banquet hall, introducing the Lu family's relatives and friends to her one by one.
Jian Qingyi suddenly understood why Lu Yujing suggested holding the engagement banquet separately.
Lu's relatives, friends, neighbors, comrades, brothers...
There are really too many!
As she walked, her face was almost frozen with smiles.
Just as the banquet was about to begin, the Chen family members, led by Zeng Caiping and Chen Zhize, arrived late.
When Zeng Caiping saw the old lady's cheongsam and the round fan in her hand, the smile on her face froze for a moment.
When enemies meet, they become jealous of each other.
The old lady naturally noticed the change in Zeng Caiping's expression.
She smiled and waved the double-sided round fan with three different embroidered patterns in her hand. "My cheongsam looks good, doesn't it?"
"Where did you buy this?" Zeng Caiping took a deep breath and asked indifferently.
"That day, I saw you looked so beautiful in your cheongsam, so I thought of asking someone to make one for me. But when my granddaughter-in-law heard about it, she insisted on making it for me herself." The old lady smiled with wrinkles on her face.
"Chen Yayun, you are kidding me! This... was made by your granddaughter-in-law. Why didn't you say it was made by your grandson?" Zeng Caiping obviously didn't believe it.
Without ten to twenty years of hard work, how can one make a cheongsam like this?!
Not to mention the embroidery on it.
The pattern is not something that ordinary people can embroider.
The old lady smiled.
Then he pointed to his daughter-in-law Qin Mengjie who was not far away and said, "See? That was also made by my granddaughter-in-law."
After making sure Zeng Caiping had seen it, the old lady pointed to Jian Qingyi on the other side and said, "The cheongsam that my granddaughter-in-law is wearing was also made by her."
"My granddaughter-in-law said that a cheongsam without hand-embroidery is like a person without a soul."
The old lady stood straight.
So what if Zeng Caiping has four granddaughters-in-law?
Can her four granddaughters-in-law make a decent cheongsam?!
"Chen Yayun, do you think I will believe it?" Zeng Caiping looked ugly, her face almost distorted.
Regardless of whether the cheongsam worn by the old lady was made by her granddaughter-in-law, it is an indisputable fact that it looks better than the one she wears.
"Zeng Caiping, is it so difficult to admit that my granddaughter-in-law is excellent?" The old lady was not angry.
"Chen Yayun, you..." Zeng Caiping was furious.
"Let me tell you, my granddaughter-in-law can not only embroider, but also paint. The paintings she draws are better than those of many great painters." The old lady said proudly.
“Chen Yayun, can you die if you don’t brag?!” Zeng Caiping sneered.
"You're from a small county town, what do you know? You can draw, but what can you draw? Chickens, dogs, pigs, ducks? Or even mountain bumps?"
