Well, never mind them.
This is the first time in her life that she has attended such a high-class banquet. She wants to eat, drink, and take some beautiful photos to post on WeChat Moments!
A middle-aged man and a young couple were walking towards them. The indescribable agility of the other party made Lian Ke look at them curiously for a few more times, but he quickly looked away.
"Do you think Master Su will take better care of his family after getting married?" Lin Youde sighed. "Young people nowadays are too short-sighted and enter the graveyard of marriage too early."
"When I married your aunt, I was also impulsive. Looking back, it was all gone in the blink of an eye. I'm middle-aged and I'm waking up from a dream."
Cheng Anan saw through his thoughts immediately and said quietly, "They're getting engaged today, so you're not already planning on getting the deputy director back to work early, are you?"
"Am I that kind of bad leader?" Lin Youde glared and said, "Well, he is."
"Xiao Cheng, you're smart. Can you think of a way to make Xiao Su love her work more?"
"Don't you want to learn more?"
"Wenwen, try to persuade your sister. Why is she still angry?"
Cheng Wenwen covered her forehead with one hand and said helplessly, "Be careful not to be mistaken for a weird uncle."
Cheng Anan: "Uncle Lin, marriage is a grave, that makes a lot of sense. Say more, I have recorded it all and will send it to Auntie when I get back."
Lin Youde was stunned. "Hey, hey, I know I was wrong. Please don't post it!"
"Your aunt has to kick me out of the house!"
"Little aunt, it's vacation, vacation!"
Rest room.
Rong Qian finally completed the last step and chose a matte warm brown-red lipstick to finish her look.
Su Lianyi blinked and looked at herself in the mirror carefully, feeling a little unbelievable.
The face is still the same, but the complexion has been completely improved.
The color of the lipstick complements her skin tone better.
It's not cold, it has a sunny feeling.
Rong Qian smiled and said, "You are the best model I have ever seen. Could it be that there is some special magic in metaphysics that can make people beautiful?"
"You're too kind." Su Lianyi felt embarrassed to accept the compliment.
It may be the effect of marrow washing.
There is no ugly person in the world of immortal cultivation, because the marrow cleansing exercise is really effective and can eliminate the dirt and foul air in the body, making one naturally look good.
After Rong Qian completely got rid of the burden of Rong Xin, she gradually returned to her new life.
She had never asked which juvenile detention center Rong Xin would be sent to, nor was she interested.
It’s better not to have that ungrateful brother. She is herself first, Rong Qian, and then she will be someone else’s daughter or sister...
The butler hurriedly stopped in front of the door and knocked gently.
"Young Madam Su." He changed the address smoothly. "The old lady of the Su family came to visit in person and specifically asked to see you, but was stopped by Old Ou. Do you want to see her?"
The butler looked at his watch. The dinner would officially begin in fifteen minutes. Visiting at this time might delay the dinner. Didn’t the Su family know that it would cause trouble for the young lady?
He shook his head, not understanding the Su family's thoughts, but still reported it dutifully.
After hearing this, the eldest young master said that he would let the young lady decide.
Su Lianyi: "Then let's meet."
She also wanted to meet Old Madam Su.
The relationship between her and the Su family originated from Old Madam Su, so naturally it had to end with the other party.
Old Madam Su was over seventy years old, with a slightly hunched back and a pair of elephant eyes, just like those in the orchid fantasy world. At first glance, one could tell that she was blessed with long-lasting fortunes and believed that she must be a kind old lady.
The slightest change in the eyes is hard to notice if you don't look carefully.
When she saw her, Madam Su was dazed for a moment, but she quickly reacted.
The female secretary behind her stepped forward, holding an antique wooden box in her hand, and said gently, "Miss, I heard that you were engaged, and I have been thinking about you for a long time. I specially dug out these jewels as a gift for you."
Old Madam Su said softly, "This is the dowry my parents gave me when I married your grandfather. Little girl, please don't refuse it."
"Grandma knows, your parents have been confused these past few years... Alas, it's a happy day, so let's not talk about this."
Why don’t you say it?
Su Lianyi did not move and refused to accept the "gift".
The female secretary was in a dilemma holding the box and looked at her employer.
Seeing this, Mrs. Su's eyes flickered slightly, and she smiled bitterly: "Are you blaming grandma?"
"It's not that I have any resentment, I just don't want to get close to you." Su Lianyi replied.
She looked straight at Old Mrs. Su without looking around.
Her eyes were too clear and bright, like a pool of still water, without any emotion of closeness, expectation, or yearning for family affection.
“I roughly understand why you came here tonight, but I have no relationship with the Su family anymore.”
"If Mr. and Mrs. Su need pension in the future, I will fulfill my responsibility as their biological daughter to pay some of the pension. For the rest, it's best to keep a distance from them, just like now."
"Miss Lianyi, it was grandma who brought you home..." Old Madam Su stammered twice, and she had a thousand words on her lips but couldn't say them.
"Yes." Su Lianyi chuckled, "You took me home and never cared about me."
"You may have some sympathy for your granddaughter, but it's too little. You turned a blind eye to your son, daughter-in-law, and grandson's strong insistence on protecting Su Qingyue."
"You want a harmonious family and everything will be prosperous. It doesn't matter if you sacrifice your granddaughter's feelings in front of the entire Su family."
"I can see you've felt guilty, so you've been staying at the old house, claiming illness and refusing to show up, trying to escape this way." She paused. "Then isn't it good to escape after all? Why do you want to see me?"
Old Mrs. Su thought that she could escape everything by not facing it, but she didn't know that some things could not be solved by avoiding them.
It will ferment and intensify.
Even if the girl who longed for family affection did not fall and die, she would probably die of exhaustion after her luck was constantly drained away.
And the grandma who has been avoiding——
Even showing up?
What about even saying, "Leave this child with me at the old house"?
What about asking your granddaughter?
She doesn't have to pay anything, just show her attitude. No matter how biased Su Jianye and Lin Qingrou are, they will not go against their old mother's wishes, forcibly drive her away, and push her into the calculations of people with ulterior motives.
Madam Su's cloudy pupils trembled.
The housekeeper interrupted at the right moment, "Young Madam, the dinner will begin in five minutes. Would you like Miss Rong to tidy up her appearance?"
"Thank you, I understand." Su Lianyi nodded.
Turning to Madam Su, she said, “I know the Su family is in some trouble, and you can’t sit still.”
"You've come to visit me at this hour, are you planning to cause a scene in the lobby in front of all the guests if I refuse to meet you?"
The female secretary paused and looked at her with a complicated expression.
