Chapter 317 Banquet
Jiang Haitang stood up and looked down at the crazy woman behind the fence with a hint of contempt in her eyes.
I thought a girl who grew up in a compound would have some brains, but who knew she was a real idiot.
Stupid and unaware!
"No...no! It's you!" Wang Xuemei screamed in despair, refusing to accept this fact.
"Wang Xuemei, you still don't understand that the reason you've ended up like this is because you broke the law and violated the bottom line of being a human being."
"When you attempt to use the most despicable means to harm innocent people, the law will not tolerate you, morality will not tolerate you, and you have brought this upon yourself!"
"Reflect on your actions in prison. It's not me you should hate, but the uncontrollable jealousy and malice in your own heart."
After saying that, Jiang Haitang didn't even look at her anymore. She turned around and left decisively.
Behind him, there were Wang Xuemei's desperate cries and screams, as well as vicious curses against Jiang Haitang.
Jiang Haitang heard it and just smiled faintly.
It's just impotent rage, don't take it to heart.
But those sounds were quickly blocked by the heavy iron door and became unclear.
After losing sight of Jiang Haitang, Wang Xuemei collapsed to the ground in dejection.
She knew that everything was over, really over this time.
She believed that if the Lu and Jiang families joined forces, they would have no problem dealing with the Wang family, which had not recovered its vitality.
During those years in the countryside, Lu Liangchen was her obsession and her reliance.
She always thought that after returning to the capital, she would be able to be with the person she loved most.
However, the opposite happened and she became extremely jealous.
Because of jealousy, his father was suspended from work and investigated, his grandfather's reputation was ruined and his integrity was lost, and his brother's affairs were brought up again.
She ruined herself, brought down her family, and harmed everyone in her family, all for a man who might not even remember what she looked like.
Yes, she believed Jiang Haitang's words and felt that what Jiang Haitang said about Lu Liangchen not knowing him was true.
"Perhaps, it was wrong from the beginning!" Wang Xuemei burst into tears...
The winter sun shone on her body, dispelling the cold. Jiang Haitang took a deep breath of the cool air, looked up at the blue sky, and her heart felt clear and peaceful.
No matter what time it is, people must keep their original intention.
Only by keeping your original intention can you move forward.
On the other hand, He Wanyi, Yuan Yinan, Shi Shulan and others were also working very effectively in the compound.
They already have good relationships with people, and they came forward to support Jiang Haitang through casual chatting, expressing the Lu family's attitude and indirectly showing Mr. Jiang's attitude. The effect should be very good.
Some people who didn't know Jiang Haitang at first didn't take it seriously when they heard that the Lu family married a girl from the northwest.
Seeing that all the women of the Lu family came out to support Jiang Haitang, they couldn't help but become more curious.
Naturally, they exchanged information and got to know Jiang Haitang privately.
There are those who don’t know the situation, and there are those who do.
Those who knew Jiang Haitang talked about it one after another, and finally pieced together a list of Jiang Haitang's main achievements.
You wouldn't know until you ask, and once you do, you'll find out. This girl is incredibly talented. She's just over 20 years old, but she's already achieved remarkable results.
Although she grew up in the northwest, she is even more promising than girls who grew up in Beijing.
Just being able to visit and study abroad and receive a science and technology innovation award is an achievement that many people can only dream of in their lifetime.
What's more, I heard that she can translate professional books and lead the factory to develop new machinery to earn foreign exchange for the country, which is even more amazing.
In addition, when the news came out that Mr. Jiang was about to hold a banquet for his granddaughter, everyone knew that Jiang Haitang was indeed the jewel of the Jiang family left behind and the only blood relative of Mr. Jiang.
No one thought this was fake. I hadn't thought about it before, but now that I know and think about it again, this girl looks so much like Old Jiang's daughter-in-law!
In an instant, many people began to envy the Lu family, thinking that this kid from the Lu family was really a man with good vision.
From now on, the couple will not only have the resources of the Lu family, but also the resources of the Jiang family.
With Mr. Jiang's unreserved support, the couple's future is immeasurable.
Wang Xuemei is really stupid. She actually thought of dealing with such a person.
The whispers quickly died down, replaced by anticipation for the banquet. They were eager to see the granddaughter-in-law of the Lu family and the granddaughter of the Jiang family.
On this day, the Jiang family held a banquet. Although the scale was not grand, all the attendees were heavyweights.
The saying "There are great scholars to talk and laugh with, and no unlearned people to associate with" is most appropriate here.
Mr. Jiang solemnly introduced her identity to the guests, his words full of pride and love.
Although Lu Liangchen was not there, the rest of the Lu family was there, and everyone could see what the Lu family's attitude was.
Some people began to discuss quietly that the Wang family seemed not to have been invited, and it seemed that there was really no way to ease the relationship between the two families.
"It would be strange if things could be eased. The Wang family's daughter is vicious. If those words were to be taken seriously by someone with ulterior motives, both families would be in trouble."
"The Wang family got caught in the rain, so they probably want to make other families suffer as well."
"From now on, we have to stay away from the Wang family. We used to think that the Wang family was just a bunch of bad kids, but now it seems like even the elders aren't any good either."
"Perhaps, there will be no chance to get close to them in the future. If the Jiang family and the Lu family attack together, the Wang family will probably be severely damaged and will not be able to stir up any trouble in the short term."
Besides, although the king’s father and mother did not receive an invitation, they still took the initiative to visit.
Everyone was surprised to see them appear at the Jiang family, and they were secretly discussing what the couple meant by coming today.
Although he had anticipated that he would be met with cold faces today, when he really saw the cold faces of everyone, especially the Jiang and Lu families, Wang Zhiyong's face became very ugly.
In the past few years, his family has suffered a lot and he has suffered a lot of cold stares. Now that he has been rehabilitated and returned to the capital, he still has to face such cold treatment.
Wang Zhiyong clenched his fists.
Although the Queen Mother was embarrassed, she still forced herself to apologize to Jiang Haitang: "Haitang, no matter how many mistakes you make, it's all Xuemei's fault. Auntie apologizes to you. It's my fault for not teaching the child well. Please be magnanimous and let it go, okay? Our Wang family..."
Jiang Haitang watched calmly the entire time, and only spoke slowly after the Queen Mother finished speaking, her voice clear and calm.
"Wang Xuemei broke the law. It's not a question of whether I forgive her or not, or whether I care about it or not."
"You are also prominent people. You should know what kind of disaster it would be for the Lu and Jiang families if the rumors Wang Xuemei created spread."
"Wang Xuemei is unhappy with her life, so she takes her anger out on others, even resorting to fabricating rumors and slander. Do you really think I can just let it go?"
The Queen Mother was speechless after being asked this question. She just covered her face, feeling extremely ashamed.
It is indeed unforgivable that Wang Xuemei led others to say that Jiang Haitang might have been trained by a spy organization.
She began to hate herself. Why were other people's children fine, but she gave birth to two evil creatures?
"Niece, Xuemei was wrong. She should be punished accordingly. We have no complaints. But, can you please not affect the rest of us? We really had no idea what Xuemei did." Wang Zhiyong put aside his pride and begged.
My daughter is in jail, and as long as nothing happens at home, there is still room for improvement.
If the Wang family falls, it will be the end of everything.
"Old Wang, you have the nerve to force a junior here!" Uncle Lu came over at some point and said to Wang Zhiyong with a cold face.
Wang Zhiyong knew that Uncle Lu was not someone he could afford to offend, so he could only say hesitantly that he had no other intentions and just wanted to talk to Jiang Haitang.
"You guys go back. As long as you don't make trouble in the future, I won't keep paying attention to this matter." Jiang Haitang looked at the two people and said this.
Although the two had much to say, they did not dare to say anything because of Uncle Lu's presence, and finally left sadly.
Watching Wang Zhiyong leave, Second Uncle Lu said, "Misfortunes sent by Heaven are to be reckoned with, but those brought upon oneself are to be reckoned with. After all these years, the Wang family still hasn't learned their lesson and properly taught their children, leading to this disaster."
"Thank you, Uncle." Jiang Haitang thanked Uncle Lu.
"Don't be so polite, kid. We are family. Come on, someone wants to see you. They're waiting in the study."
Uncle Lu pulled the corners of his mouth, trying his best to put on a kind smile and said to Jiang Haitang.
Jiang Haitang looked at Uncle Lu's grinning face and complained in her heart, it would be better not to smile like that, it looked scary. Fortunately, Xiaochengzi was not there. If Xiaochengzi saw it, wouldn't he be scared to tears?
Uncle Lu didn’t know what Jiang Haitang was thinking. If he could hear what Jiang Haitang was thinking, he would have to say: Xiao Taozi is not afraid, how could Xiao Chengzi, a boy, be scared to tears by me?
Jiang Haitang asked Uncle Lu and found out that a special guest had come today. He was the technical consultant of the Ministry of Light Industry, Mr. Chen, a textile expert in his seventies.
Mr. Jiang and Mr. Lu were talking to him in the study.
After the greetings, Mr. Chen went straight to the point and expressed his desire to meet Jiang Haitang.
It turned out that he had heard about some of Jiang Haitang's technological innovations in the textile factory, and learned that she was Mr. Jiang's granddaughter, so he came here today to have a discussion with this young colleague.
"My two leaders, I'll be honest with you. I came here today because I really wanted to meet Comrade Haitang in private. I've learned about her past and she's a truly remarkable person with innovative ideas. She's solved many practical problems for our country's textile industry."
"I heard she's good at foreign languages and has translated a lot of technical information. my country is in dire need of translators right now, especially those in professional and technical fields."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Jiang smiled proudly, but said modestly, "She's just a child, just imagining things. She doesn't deserve such praise. She's just willing to put in some hard work."
"Hey, you're too polite, aren't you? This is not just hard work, it's real ability! Now the country needs young technical talents who have both practical experience and theoretical learning and foreign language skills!" Old Chen waved his hand with a bright smile.
While they were talking, Uncle Lu had already brought Jiang Haitang to the study.
Because there were other guests outside, Uncle Lu did not go into the study, but went downstairs to greet the guests.
Jiang Haitang looked at Mr. Chen. Although he was over seventy years old, he was in good spirits and had a sharp gaze.
