The Liu family was originally a local powerful family.
The courtyard, with its three entrances and three exits, was built in a very grand manner.
When the Lu family arrived, the area outside was already filled with luxury cars, and guests were coming and going in an endless stream.
The old lady led her whole family into the courtyard.
At this moment, the courtyard was already filled with banquets, and Liu Hongsheng and his son were surrounded by a group of bigwigs, chatting and laughing.
Those invited by Liu Hongsheng to his promotion banquet today are at least from top-tier wealthy families.
The Lu family, a small clan, had no presence whatsoever in front of a group of wealthy and powerful figures.
Mrs. Lu hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn't have the courage to join in the fun. So she led her family to sit down at a table near the door.
Just then, Liu Hongsheng inadvertently spotted the Lu family in the crowd, quickly pushed through the crowd, and led his son toward them.
"Oh my, old lady, your presence is an honor to our Liu family!" Liu Hongsheng said with a loud laugh.
This greeting truly stunned everyone present.
Good heavens, who is this old lady that Liu Hongsheng values her so much?
The old lady was immediately flattered and hurriedly stood up, "General Liu, you can't accept this, you can't accept this!"
“Oh, old lady, our two families have been friends for generations. You are my elder, Liu, and I deserve to be called that! Come, please take a seat!” Liu Hongsheng said, gesturing for her to sit down.
"Am I also qualified to sit at the head table?" The old lady trembled with excitement.
What kind of occasion is this? All the guests here are wealthy and powerful people. The head table is not a place for ordinary people.
Liu Hongsheng is really giving me a lot of face!
The Lu family members were also trembling with excitement. They had felt a little inferior when they first arrived here, but now they couldn't help but puff out their chests.
Liu Hongsheng personally helped the old lady to the main table, and her eldest and second uncles were also invited to the main table. The rest of the Lu family were also arranged to sit at a table next to it.
After Liu Hongsheng sat down, he took the initiative to chat with the old lady.
Although Liu Hongsheng held a high position, he treated the old lady as a junior, and the two got along very well.
The old lady once thought that Liu Hongsheng truly respected her as an elder.
While the conversation was still fresh, the old lady quickly called Lu Tiantian over.
"Hehe, General Liu, this is my second granddaughter, Lu Tiantian. She just graduated from university and has been smart since she was a child! I heard that your son is already in his mid-twenties, right?" the old lady asked with a smile.
Liu Hongsheng's eyes flickered slightly, and he immediately understood what the old lady meant.
Is this some kind of plan to establish a marriage alliance with me?
In the past, Liu Hongsheng would have refused immediately, since the two families were far too different, and given his status, he would naturally look down on the Lu family.
But things are different now; the Lu family is the young marshal's wife's family!
Once the young marshal takes office, the Lu family will surely become the top family in Fengtian within the next twenty years!
What a wonderful marriage!
Thinking of this, Liu Hongsheng looked at Lu Tiantian and said, "Hmm, not bad! She's a clever and quick-witted girl!"
"So... General Liu, you agree?" The old lady's face lit up with joy.
Lu Tiantian's pretty face immediately turned red, and she glanced at Liu Tianfeng beside her, her heart pounding.
Liu Hongsheng smiled and nodded, then said to his son, "Tianfeng, you and Tiantian should talk more together!"
Liu Tianfeng glanced at Lu Tiantian and immediately felt a little worried.
To be honest, Lu Tiantian was really too ordinary in terms of both looks and temperament, and he didn't like her at all.
But he didn't dare disobey his father, so he could only nod and agree, "Okay, Dad, I understand!"
The old lady beamed from ear to ear, and then, seizing the opportunity, said to Liu Hongsheng, "General Liu, I think these two young people are quite well-matched. How about this, in a few days it will be my seventieth birthday, so let's celebrate with double happiness and settle the matter then, what do you say?"
Liu Hongsheng was taken aback, not expecting the old lady to be in such a hurry.
However, after thinking about it, he nodded in agreement, "Alright, we'll do as you say, Madam!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Tiantian almost jumped up in excitement.
In that case, wouldn't I be about to become the young mistress of the Liu family?
Back in her seat, Lu Tiantian was still feeling dizzy.
At this moment, the Lu family members all began to flatter him.
"Sweetie, you're amazing now, you'll be the young mistress of the Liu family soon!"
"Our Sweetie is about to fly to the top of the tree and become a phoenix!"
"Sweetie, after you marry into the Liu family, you mustn't forget about the Lu family!"
After being praised like that, Lu Tiantian immediately became smug.
"Hey? Isn't that Third Aunt? What's that all the way here?"
Just then, a member of the Lu family suddenly shouted.
Everyone looked towards the entrance and saw Zhang Ailan and Lu Xueqing's family walking into the courtyard.
"Could it be that their family also received an invitation from General Liu?"
"How is that possible?"
"They probably heard we were coming to the banquet and came to join in the fun, right?"
"That's right! They probably came in using our Lu family's name!"
The younger generation discussed it amongst themselves.
The two brothers, Lu Haitao and Lu Haishan, were furious when they saw Lin Yu and his wife.
"Hmph! These two bitches are trying to ride on the coattails of the Lu family!" Lu Haitao was the first to stand up. "Come on, let's get them out of here!"
Lu Haitao immediately led a few younger people over.
At this moment, Zhang Ailan and Lin Yu, a married couple, had just found seats and sat down.
No sooner had he sat down than Lu Haitao, accompanied by several juniors, strode over menacingly.
