Chapter 446 Liu Yan meets Xu Mo
Liu Yan was very reluctant to hear Jiang Chao say this.
She couldn't bear to do that.
She thought two thousand yuan was a lot, but her youngest son actually thought it was not enough.
"Two thousand is not enough. How much is enough? Don't bother." Liu Yan said a little impatiently.
Jiang Chao sighed and patiently explained to his mother in a low voice.
"Mom, this is called investment, you know? I just looked at the gift list, grandma gave 2,000, my eldest aunt gave 5,000, and even my eldest sister's godmother gave 5,000."
"Brother Jiang Hang works with Big Brother, and he probably has a good job, so even Big Uncle gave him 2,000 yuan. Big Uncle is not a generous person, so why did he give so much? It was just to curry favor with Big Brother and Xiaoxue."
"My uncle's family all knew that the two of them had a good relationship, and they also knew that my eldest sister and eldest brother were both rich. For such a big event as marriage, giving more would definitely be better than giving less. Mom, don't be so short-sighted. You don't know that just now my two uncles and I went to pay the gift and handed over 600 yuan. The people who checked the gift list were a little surprised. You looked at the hotel and the people coming and going. I thought they were all relatives and friends of the bride, but there were also quite a few people from my eldest brother's side.
What the uncles gave was not as much as what my eldest brother and classmate, Chen Hua, gave. Except for them, everyone else has more than 600. Fortunately, they temporarily added three hundred, otherwise it would have been even more embarrassing. ”
"Mom, just think of it as a long-term investment. You are their biological mother. Building a good relationship with them will only benefit you and me."
"My uncle's family was smarter than you in this regard, and they also benefited from it."
Liu Yan listened quietly, and was then moved by her youngest son's words.
"So how much do you think is appropriate in the red envelope?" Liu Yan unconsciously asked Jiang Chao for his opinion.
Jiang Chao thought about it, then said hesitantly, "Six thousand."
Her mother couldn't bear to let him go even though his family had so much money.
Six thousand is a lucky number and it’s acceptable.
Liu Yan agreed. "Then before the wedding starts, use my card to withdraw another 3,000 yuan. I have 3,000 yuan in my bag."
Then he whispered the password into Jiang Chao's ear. Jiang Chao remembered that there was a bank not far from the hotel, so he quickened his pace to withdraw the money.
After Jiang Chao left, Jiang Lu, who had been silent the whole time, started to speak, "Mom, you might as well invest in me. You don't have to invest in me. Just let me arrange my own salary. Look at how beautifully many girls dress. The living expenses you give me are so tight that I don't even have enough money to buy two more pieces of clothing."
"At least what you're wearing is new. What I'm wearing was bought several years ago." Liu Yan said, pointing to the clothes she was wearing.
"You usually have work clothes at work, so if you buy more, you won't be able to wear them all."
Jiang Lu even wore new clothes today.
But this place is very classy, with lights, flowers, and people passing by all dressed decently.
Although she was wearing new clothes, she felt inferior as if the clothes were of cheap quality, poor quality, poorly matched, badly styled, and the shoes did not match.
Especially when she saw Jiang Xue, her biological sister, from afar.
Wearing clothes that are obviously of good quality and sparkling jewelry.
With delicate makeup on her face, she can be spotted in the crowd at a glance.
There was also a tall boy wearing glasses following behind Jiang Xue.
She has fair skin and is very handsome. She is following her sister, and what she is holding in her hand should be her sister's bag.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lu said to Liu Yan: "Mom, I just saw my elder sister's boyfriend. He is very handsome."
"Where is it? Show it to me." Liu Yan immediately became alert upon hearing that. Jiang Lu stood up with her mother, came to a position closer to the stage, and pointed at Xu Mo, who was standing with his back straight and chatting with people around him.
"That's him. I just saw him holding a bag for my sister. My sister is not here right now. It seems she is accompanying the bride."
Liu Yan looked at him from a distance with a critical eye.
In particular, he saw clearly that the person chatting with the boy was the wife of Jiang Xue's teacher, with whom he had fought before.
I'm so angry.
When they came, the eldest son arranged their train tickets and hotel.
But the brother and sister never showed up from beginning to end.
She heard about it from others when she came over from the hotel for dinner.
What a lively wedding.
Discussions on how grand the ceremony was, betrothal gifts, and dowry.
They didn't participate in any of this.
It's like coming to the wedding just to have a meal.
Not to mention Liu Qinglin, Jiang Xue had introduced her boyfriend to Grandma Jiang before, and now she let her boyfriend chat with Yang Zhian and his wife, but she was unwilling to introduce them to her.
She came all the way from her hometown, but Jiang Xue didn't even say a word to her. She felt that Jiang Xue was too disrespectful to her.
Jiang Lu originally planned to just take her mother to watch from a distance. Seeing her mother's ever-changing expression, she was about to pull her mother away, but her mother suddenly pulled her and came to her sister's boyfriend's table.
Xu Mo and Jiang Xue attended Liu Qinglin's wedding together.
As Liu Qinglin's best man, he got up very early in the morning to pick up the bride.
At the table where he was sitting at the moment, there were Yu Juan and three other groomsmen, one named Chen Hua, one named Li Chao, and the other Lu Rang.
Also sitting at the same table were Li Chao’s mother and Chen Hua’s wife.
Jiang Xue also arranged her godfather and godmother to sit at this table. She was going to accompany the bride and asked Xu Mo to take care of her godfather and godmother. He was chatting with Yang Zhian at the moment.
Wang Yulan and Yu Juan were chatting.
Then a middle-aged woman suddenly pulled Jiang Xue's seat next to him and sat down.
"There's someone here." Xu Mo reminded politely.
"I know Jiang Xue's location, right? Do you know who I am?" Liu Yan asked Xu Mo with a slightly aggressive tone.
"Xu Mo, this is Jiang Xue's mother." Seeing that Xu Mo looked completely unfamiliar, Wang Yulan introduced him to her.
"Hello, Auntie." Xu Mo greeted politely.
When the other people at the table heard that it was Jiang Xue's mother, they also greeted her.
Li Chao's mother didn't know about Jiang Xue's situation. When she saw Liu Yan, who had similar facial features to Jiang Xue and Liu Qinglin, she said enthusiastically: "Your two children look a lot like you. Both of them are capable. You are really amazing. Is this your youngest daughter?" She was asking Jiang Lu who was standing nearby.
"Yeah." Liu Yan replied.
"The youngest daughter looks different from her older brothers and sisters. She probably takes after her father. But she's also very beautiful. You're so lucky."
Although Li Chao was not clear about the specific relationship between Liu Qinglin and his family, he had heard about it from Chen Hua and others.
He pulled his mother and told her not to make connections randomly.
He knew that Liu Qinglin grew up in his grandmother's house, and that he and Jiang Xue were half-siblings.
Liu Qinglin is not close to either his grandmother's family who raised him or his biological mother.
Now that he has found his biological father and is preparing to inherit the huge family fortune, Liu Qinglin's factory has basically been handed over to him for management.
He can quite accurately gauge his boss' temper.
It is obvious that he does not like this mother and does not want to contact her. As his right-hand man and employee, it is not appropriate for him to be too close or enthusiastic.
"Where is Xiaoxue?" Liu Yan asked knowingly.
"Backstage, with the bride. Do you have something to talk to her about?" Wang Yulan replied.
Liu Yan ignored her, rolled her eyes at her, and continued to look at Xu Mo.
"Are you from the same school?" Liu Yan asked Xu Mo.
"Yes, Auntie, but it's not a major. I studied mathematics." Xu Mo replied.
You are all seniors, right?
Liu Yan asked again.
"right."
"Where are you from? What do your parents do?"
"You've been dating Jiang Xue for several years."
"What are your plans for the future? Oh, by the way, she said before that she wanted to go abroad. Will she go with you? When will she go and which school will she go to?"
"She hasn't even brought you to meet her parents. Have you brought her to meet your parents? You've been dating for a few years. When are you getting married?"
Xu Mo asked and answered questions, including about marriage and meeting parents. Before Xu Mo could answer, a pair of hands pressed on Liu Yan's shoulders.
The person who was holding her shoulders didn't control the strength and used a bit of force.
