She had some impression of the head of the Zheng family. He was the man who bought her the Ming blue and white porcelain antique last time.
After dinner, everyone continued to sit in the living room and chat.
The next morning around eight o'clock.
After getting up and washing up, Yan Ning changed into a skirt and a pair of leather shoes.
Her smooth hair was draped over her shoulders, with a pearl hairpin pinned above her ear.
She didn't put on any makeup on her face, just a thin layer of lipstick to enhance her complexion.
She didn't wear any other jewelry, just the white ice jade bracelet on her hand was enough.
After packing up, Yan Ning picked up a small bag and went downstairs.
In the living room, Madam Ning and Sister Huo were already ready.
Others went to work, and those who wanted to go out went out.
Seeing Yan Ning coming down, the three of them got in the car and left.
A few of them first went to the tea restaurant owned by the Ning family to have morning tea.
The waiter handed over the menu and Yan Ning took a look at it.
Huo Jieyan said from the side: "Xiao Ning, this restaurant belongs to the Ning family. The food here tastes very good. Take a look and see if there is anything you like.
The Ning family has several restaurants, all of which are delicious. I'll take you there to try them someday."
It was also Yan Ning's first time to experience Hong Kong-style dim sum, and he saw many famous snacks on the menu.
She ordered a few dishes according to her desire.
Ordered prawn dumplings, chicken feet, barbecued pork buns, siu mai, rice rolls and egg tarts.
Sister Huo Yan added some signature dishes.
When the waiter brought the dishes, the entire table was filled with them.
It looks like a lot, but the portion is actually not that big, and each plate is a single portion.
The three of us can eat a little bit and be full.
While they were having morning tea, two ladies and two girls came over to greet Madam Ning and Sister Huo.
"Hello, Madam Ning, hello, Madam Ning. It's been a long time since I saw you here. May I know who this young lady is?" asked a woman who looked particularly wealthy.
Madam Ning smiled and said, "This is the third young lady of my Ning family. She is my granddaughter, Yan Ning."
Then he introduced a few people to Yan Ning, "Xiao Ning, these two are Madam Fang and Madam Fang, and those two girls are the daughters of the Fang family."
Yan Ning greeted with a smile.
The two ladies were surprised. Madam Ning’s granddaughter?
Everyone in the wealthy circles of Hong Kong knows that Mr. Ning and Mrs. Ning have a little daughter who has been lost for many years.
Has this been found now?
Several people looked at Yan Ning.
This girl looks dignified, elegant and generous. She must be a child raised in a wealthy family.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, they sat at a table far away to have breakfast tea.
Sister Huo thought that Yan Ning would live in Gangcheng in the future, so she introduced the people she had just met to Yan Ning in detail.
"Those people just now are from the Fang family, one of the four major families in Hong Kong City. The woman in the crimson cheongsam is the wife of the head of the Fang family.
The young woman in the white dress is the daughter-in-law of Mrs. Fang's eldest son, that is, Mrs. Fang.
The taller of the two girls is Madam Fang's youngest daughter, and the other is the daughter of the third wife of the Fang family."
Yan Ning nodded. Fortunately, she had a good memory and could remember so many people's names.
Now that all this has been said, Sister Huo Yan simply introduced all the interpersonal relationships in Hong Kong's upper class circles to Yan Ning.
She took a sip of the bird's nest and continued:
"Besides the Fang family, the other three of the four major families in Hong Kong are the Fu family, the Gu family, and the Guan family.
These four families are famous and prominent families that have lived in Hong Kong for a hundred years. Your second aunt is the youngest daughter of Mr. Guan from the Guan family.
The Fu family and the Gu family are related by marriage, the Guan family and the Fang family are related by marriage, but the Gu family and the Fang family have a feud.
So the Gu and Fu families are on one side, the Guan and Fang families are on the other side, and our Ning family and Guan family are related by marriage.
Therefore, the Ning family mainly interacts with the Guan family and the Fang family, and does not interact or cooperate much with the Gu and Fu families."
Yan Ning was confused by this complicated relationship.
She slowly went through it all and finally sorted out all the relationships.
Yan Ning swallowed the delicious shrimp dumplings in his mouth and asked:
"Aunt, does our Ning family have any bad relationships with any of them? Tell me so I can be on guard if I run into any of them in the future."
Huo Jieyan put down her chopsticks, wiped the corner of her mouth with a napkin, and then slowly spoke:
"We in the Ning family don't have any feuds, but you need to pay more attention to the people of the He family in Hong Kong.
The eldest son of the He family's first wife had previously proposed to marry your eldest cousin but failed, so he actually spread rumors all over Hong Kong to slander your eldest cousin's reputation.
Now the Ning and He families are enemies, and they compete with each other in business dealings, often making things difficult for the Ning family.
If you run into the He family outside in the future, don't bother with them, and if they provoke you, don't show them mercy."
Yan Ning nodded slightly to indicate that he understood.
After having morning tea, it was already half past nine.
The three of them left the restaurant, got in the car and went to Evergrande Shopping Mall.
In fact, they didn't buy anything, they just wandered around with nothing to do.
As they walked along the mall, when they passed by Huo Jieyan's jewelry store, the three of them went in to take a look.
Huo Jieyan owns two jewelry stores, one in the Central Commercial Plaza in Wan Chai District and the other in Evergrande Shopping Mall in Central.
