In this way, Xiao Qingran was clearly the center of attention and became the focus of everyone.
In addition, her high-end dress, which was made by a master, made many people who looked down on Xiao Qingran in their hearts immediately realize that Xiao Qingran's status in the Lu family was probably higher than that of several newly born great-grandchildren and should not be underestimated.
The host arrived, and all the guests stood up to greet Mr. Lu.
Mr. Lu's face was flushed and he looked full of energy.
He smiled and said a few polite words. Then he changed the subject and introduced the old lady's younger sister to everyone.
"When my sister went missing, our Lu family searched for her for decades. Unexpectedly, she lost her memory and couldn't find her home. Fortunately, God was kind and she regained her memory when she was over 60. Now we are reunited, which is a cause for joy. Moreover, not only did she come back, but she also brought a baby girl back to the Lu family. As everyone knows, what our Lu family lacks most is girls. Ranran will become our most honored little princess. Like all the descendants of the Lu family, she will enjoy the rights of inheritance of the Lu family.
Today is a triple blessing, and I, an old man, am very happy today, so I will have a few more drinks with everyone."
Everyone immediately cheered happily.
There was an endless stream of compliments.
"After a while, when Ranran finishes her work, our Lu family will hold a family reunion banquet. Everyone is welcome to come and support us."
After Mr. Lu finished saying this, the way everyone looked at Xiao Qingran was completely different from when they first came.
Whether Xiao Qingran enjoys the inheritance rights of the Lu family or is the little princess of the Lu family, it is enough to show that Xiao Qingran holds an extraordinary position in the hearts of the Lu family.
Unexpectedly, the old man actually held a family recognition banquet for her.
You know, the Lu family has been very low-key for so many years.
Even if she was the old man's sister, only the older generation knew about her. Who among the younger generation had ever heard that there was an aunt in the Lu family?
Over the past few decades, the number of banquets hosted by the Lu family was so few that they could be counted on one hand.
But even so, the old man actually held two events in succession for Xiao Qingran.
If their guess was correct, if it wasn't for the old man's birthday to introduce Xiao Qingran to everyone, given his low profile, he probably wouldn't have held such a grand banquet.
When everyone thought of Xiao Qingran's status in the old man's mind, they could only envy her and dared not feel jealous.
Xiao Qingran was lucky. She was taken away by mistake at birth and lived as a daughter of the Xiao family for eighteen years. Now she was found by the Lu family and continued to be a daughter of the Lu family.
Such a life is so wonderful that no one can envy it.
All I can say is that Xiao Qingran deserves to be born a rich lady.
Recalling the various injuries and criticisms Xiao Qingran had suffered in the past year since she left the Xiao family, everyone quietly turned their attention to the heads of the Wei and Xiao families.
These two people must be regretting their decision now!
Why didn’t Xiao Yuruo and Wei Zishu come?
Maybe they don’t dare to come!
Even if Patriarch Wei and Patriarch Xiao were too embarrassed to face the Lu family, they dared not not come.
Things are unpredictable, and we can only say that these two companies are short-sighted.
"Here, I would like to first thank the head of the Xiao family for raising our Ranran for eighteen years."
Mr. Lu's sudden change of tone startled everyone present.
It’s coming. It’s finally here. They’ve been waiting for it.
The Xiao family head who was mentioned immediately clasped his fists towards Mr. Lu and said ashamedly, "I don't deserve it."
When Mr. Lu looked at the head of the Xiao family, his smile grew wider, but his eyes were cold.
"Why shouldn't I be so timid? If your Xiao family hadn't kicked Ranran out, she wouldn't have been able to return to the Lu family."
After Mr. Lu finished speaking, the whole audience suddenly fell silent.
The face of the head of the Xiao family turned even paler.
Although he had guessed that this situation would occur before he came.
But when he really faced Mr. Lu's anger, he still found it a little hard to bear.
Mr. Lu used to be a soldier and had certain connections in the army. If he had not always kept a low profile, the position of head of the four major families would not have been taken by any other family.
Not everyone can withstand his anger.
Just when the Xiao family head wanted to find a hole to hide in due to shame, Mr. Lu pointed the finger at the Wei family head again.
"In addition to the Xiao family's patriarch, I also want to thank the Wei family. I'm grateful to Young Master Wei for breaking off the engagement, which allowed Ranran, who was still so young, to stay with me for a few more years. I'm also grateful to the Wei family for their unremitting efforts in suppressing my Ranran, allowing her to grow up in adversity."
As Mr. Wei spoke, he asked the waiter to bring two glasses of red wine to him and the head of the Wei family.
He raised his glass to the head of the Wei family.
The head of the Wei family raised his glass with an embarrassed look on his face and drank it all.
It was originally the most mellow and expensive red wine, but after drinking it, he could not taste any flavor and only felt bitter in his heart.
Now he regrets it so much that his intestines turn green.
If everything could go back to the beginning, and the Wei family had stood by Xiao Qingran when they discovered she was a fake daughter, then the one who would be the winner in life now should be his son.
Compared to the Xiao family, their Wei family is the biggest fool.
Mrs. Wei was standing in the corner, and after seeing this scene, she was even more afraid to come out.
Her eyes fell on Xiao Qingran and her heart skipped a beat.
She didn't expect Xiao Qingran to suddenly look at her at this time.
When their eyes met, Mrs. Wei felt a chill all over her body.
Thinking of her ridicule and cold words towards Xiao Qingran when she broke off the engagement, Mrs. Wei quickly lowered her head and found a more secluded corner to hide.
There are very few young people attending the old man’s birthday party today, most of them are elderly people.
After Mr. Lu finished greeting the heads of the Xiao and Wei families, the head of the Chu family immediately brought Mrs. Chu over to greet the old man and the old lady.
Madam Chu Ning Ai is the elder sister of Madam Xiao Ning Man. She used to be Xiao Qingran's aunt. It can be said that she dotes on Xiao Qingran more than Madam Xiao.
The two haven't seen each other for almost a year since the original owner became a fake rich girl.
When we met again, Mrs. Chu was still as enthusiastic as ever.
"Ranran has really grown up."
She held Xiao Qingran's hand and said a little sadly: "If you want, you can still call me aunt. I will always be your family."
Everyone knew about her sister's divorce. She couldn't bring it up in front of Xiao Qingran. What was the point in saying it?
After all, whether it was the Xiao family or my sister, their treatment of Ranran because of Xiao Yuruo was so disheartening.
No wonder Ranran cut off contact with all of them after leaving the Xiao family.
If it were her, she might do something even more extreme than Ranran.
Xiao Qingran just nodded politely.
She didn't want to have anything to do with the original owner's aunt.
She is a very smooth person who can get along with everyone. She says one thing to one person and another thing to another person.
But in fact, she is a sycophant and is good at flattering the powerful and bullying the weak.
When the original owner was at her lowest point, she never stood up and spoke for him.
