There are so many survival skills, and Lin Xiaoman is busy learning all of them. He always feels that he is in a state where there is never enough time.
Look, in the blink of an eye, it’s already National Day.
This year's National Day is followed by the Mid-Autumn Festival, so it is a long holiday.
Reunion during the Mid-Autumn Festival is a custom, so Lin Xiaoman went home happily.
Lin Xiaoman celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival at home, and two days later, it was her grandfather’s birthday.
As a well-known figure in Qing City, the old man’s birthday must be celebrated with great fanfare.
There is not much description of the old man’s birthday party in the plot. The plot of this National Day is set in a small town under the jurisdiction of Qing City, which is Chen Tong’s home.
The plot event is that Chen Tong goes back to the countryside to visit her grandmother. Well, Nian Jiarui insists on being her driver, so the two of them go back together, and then the routine begins.
Shen Tong's younger brother, Shen Fei, is a punk who was spoiled by his parents. He ran up gambling debts at a young age. The debt collectors, seeing Shen Tong's beauty, became lustful and started kidnapping people to pay off the debts. Nian Jiarui, the hero who saved the girl, resolved the situation and, by the way, supported Shen Tong and taught her a lesson to her scoundrel parents and scumbag brother.
Well, the plot had nothing to do with her, so early this morning, Lin Xiaoman went out with Li's mother in a good mood.
The old man’s birthday party was held in the Xixiton Hotel, the most elegant and expensive hotel in Qing City. A large area of the venue was booked. Not only the top executives of Shenghua would attend, but a large number of powerful and wealthy people in Qing City were also invited.
In short, the wealthy and powerful people in Qing City gathered together to drink, brag, and keep in touch with each other, and by the way, started a large-scale blind date event.
So, Lin Xiaoman followed Li's mother out early in the morning to get beauty treatments, skin care, and hair done...
Although she is not beautiful now and a little fat, this does not affect her dressing herself up.
From morning to afternoon, after finishing, Lin Xiaoman could only say that clothes make the man, and gold makes the Buddha.
There are really no ugly women in this world, only lazy women and poor women.
Look, with a curl of her hair, her face looks smaller, with a dress covering her face, she looks thinner, and with a touch of advanced makeup, the chubby girl instantly becomes a beautiful woman. Her whole appearance has changed dramatically! Her appearance has doubled from a four-point mark to an eight-point mark!
This art of makeup and disguise, one of the three great sorcerers of Asia, must be learned.
Well, write it down in a little notebook.
After packing up, the driver drove the family of three away.
Even though the three of them had arrived half an hour early, when they arrived at their destination and looked inside, they saw that the huge banquet hall was already crowded with people.
"Brother Li is here, come in quickly."
At the main entrance of the banquet hall, Nian Weiguo and his family of three, as representatives of the Nian family, were warmly welcoming the arriving guests.
Nian Weiguo noticed the three people from the Li family and immediately went to greet them.
Hearing the noise, Shen Yanhua quickly pulled Nian Jiarui over and followed closely behind, smiling enthusiastically, "Brother Li, Xiaozhen, Xingxing, you are here."
"Uncle Li, Aunt Li." Nian Jiarui politely greeted Mr. and Mrs. Li, then smiled at Lin Xiaoman and gave her a commercial compliment, "Xingxing, you look so beautiful today."
"I'm beautiful every day!" Lin Xiaoman silently complained about Nian Jiarui's lack of tact, then put on a polite and ladylike smile and said, "Thank you."
You still have to maintain politeness in public. After all, everyone is so hypocritical. If you are too genuine, you will be an outlier.
"Hello, Uncle Nian, hello, Aunt Chen."
"Brother Li, you are so lucky." Nian Weiguo laughed heartily. On the surface, he looked like a generous man. He laughed and praised, "The stars are getting more and more beautiful."
"Yes, yes." Shen Yanhua also smiled like a flower, and said in a joking tone with a hint of ambiguity, "Look, these two children standing together, they are so well matched, they are really a match made in heaven."
Nian Jiarui's smile froze and he opened his mouth to refute, but in the end he didn't dare to say a word and contradict Shen Yanhua.
"Aunt Chen, you..." Lin Xiaoman opened her mouth and wanted to say, "Are you blind? Which eye can see that your son is worthy of me?!"
But just as Lin Xiaoman opened his mouth, Li's mother secretly pinched his arm.
Lin Xiaoman: Woo woo woo…
Well, Shen Yanhua is the elder, and she is a little lady, so she should be polite.
"Yanhua, you're joking again." Mother Li's face was full of smiles, but her words were very disrespectful. "My daughter Xingxing is just a wild girl. How could she possibly hinder your daughter Jiarui? Don't make such jokes. Besides, Xingxing is our only daughter. How could we bear to marry her off? Wouldn't that cut off the family line? Old Li and I have already planned to find a live-in son-in-law for Xingxing in the future."
In the past, when Shen Yanhua teased them like this, Li's mother was hesitant to publicly criticize her out of consideration for the family's relationship and the thought that they might actually end up together in the future. She usually just laughed it off. But now, with his family's stance already made clear, Shen Yanhua was still speaking without restraint. What was she planning? Did she really think that Li Xiaozhen was easy to bully?!
Mother Li did not lower her voice, and the guests who were nearby obviously heard it.
When Mother Li refuted this in public, Shen Yanhua's smile froze on the spot.
"Brother Li and Sister Li, your ideas are old-fashioned. Nowadays, people say that men and women are equal. We are old and don't like old ways of thinking. The children are young and value free love. In the future, they will still want to find someone they like. We old guys should be open-minded and not interfere in the affairs of children." Nian Weiguo immediately came to the rescue. His words were very smooth, and he vaguely hinted at "two children in free love."
