"If you love to curry favor so much, why don't you find a capable wife for yourself? Don't even think about currying favor with my father-in-law! No, my eldest sister-in-law's family also has connections, but they are all from the Small Life Empire! That's not something you can just make a living from. You want to go abroad, don't you? To help my eldest sister-in-law's family find their roots?" Li Laosan glanced at his eldest brother with a malicious smile on his face.
"Xingguo, sit still. This is the third brother's engagement announcement," Li Mancang said.
He took the third brother to toast the Tian family first. Tian Qingqing also stood up and sat next to the third brother.
Li Xingguo was so angry today that he was almost dying. His father-in-law's family couldn't even get the face they deserved and was mocked by his entire family. With such a great opportunity and so many big shots not even trying to help him get to know them, he didn't even bother.
Have you forgotten that this is the family you look down on and think is holding back? Wang Yue can be so arrogant, isn't it all because of his support behind the scenes? You have suffered the consequences of everything today. The old man and the old lady watched the fun, and today they let Li Xingguo come to achieve their goal. You can't get what you want, and you are so anxious!
The meal was lively and joyful.
The only discordant thing was that Bai Ruzhen didn't move her chopsticks the entire time and kept plugging her nose with a handkerchief, but on such a happy occasion, everyone pretended not to see her.
Wu Meifang's face turned pale with anger. Her whole life was ruined by this woman, and her father didn't seem to mind at all. If she had known this, she would not have told him!
Wu Meifang's parents were transferred to Shanghai for work in the 1960s. Wu Meifang had just gotten married at that time, and the couple has been living in Shanghai ever since.
A few years ago, Wu Meifang's mother passed away. Less than a month later, Wu Yuqing found a stepmother for them. Several brothers and sisters couldn't accept it and almost broke off relations with him.
Wu Yuqing left the house with nothing, divided all the property he had accumulated over the years among his two sons and two daughters, and married into his later wife's family.
Wu Meifang left most of the things given to her to Tian Qingqing, which is why Tian Qingqing's dowry was so generous.
Wu Meifang's brother went to Hong Kong to do business, her sister worked in Shanghai, and her brother lived in Nancheng. They never contacted their father.
When Qingqing got engaged, Wu Meifang thought that she had not taken care of her father in all these years, so she wanted to take this opportunity to ask him to come and live for a while. After all, he was a native of Beijing, and she believed that her old father would still be willing to live here.
Unexpectedly, the old father dealt her another heavy blow by bringing a woman over, and she was not the previous one!
She didn't want that woman to come today, but Wu Yuqing said there was nothing wrong with joining in the fun. Look, they have become the cause of the fun!
She's so mad!
After dinner, Liu Cuihua and the others quickly cleared the table and served tea and dried fruits.
Tian Qingqing served tea to the old lady, the old man, Wu Zhiqiu and Li Mancang.
Wu Zhiqiu stretched out his hand, and the third brother quickly handed over the box he had prepared.
"Qingqing, this is a little gift for you to keep." Wu Zhiqiu opened the box and found a pair of emerald green bracelets.
Wu Zhiqiu frowned. Why did it feel different from what he saw that day? Did it seem like the color had changed?
But she didn't look at it carefully that day, and she was busy these days, so she didn't think of looking at it again. She kept it with the third brother. Maybe it was because the light was different during the day and at night, she thought to herself, and handed the bracelet to Tian Qingqing.
Although Tian Qingqing was young, she had seen a lot of things. She was surprised when she saw the water on the bracelet, then glanced at Wu Meifang, "Auntie, this is too expensive!"
Everyone else craned their necks to look at it, and the Tian family's maid said it was valuable and must be a luxury item. Who in their family didn't have some luxury items? The children had been watching it since they were young, so naturally they had a broad vision.
Bai Ruzhen also took a rare look and said, "Not bad, imperial green, it's a good thing." This was the first sentence she said after she came in.
Wu Meifang also came over to take a look. It was indeed a valuable item, but she felt that her daughter deserved such a valuable item.
"Keep it. I'm afraid you won't like it!"
