In order to create a luxurious atmosphere for the young master's banquet, Xiao Yu and his friends changed all the tables at the suggestion of the hotel executives.
For a moment, the entire wedding scene looked like they were at home just by looking at the tables.
The cousin wanted to say something but hesitated, but in her heart she was a little glad that her eldest cousin Xiao Feng did not come, otherwise today they would not only change the table and the dishes, but would directly beat the groom.
Such a grand occasion naturally attracted the attention of people at other tables around.
The woman's favorite was also called around by some old men and women, who also made indirect accusations.
Plate after plate of exquisitely lavish dishes, even the bowls and plates, were served. This time, it wasn't some miniature plate with a third of a roast duck and a roast chicken like you'd find at McDonald's. Instead, it was a whole, authentic Imperial Capital roast duck. The roast chicken, according to the executives, was a specially supplied, authentic, native chicken from the mountains.
There are also roast suckling pig, roast lamb chops, roast goose, and classic dishes from eight major cuisines.
"...Since the young master doesn't like seafood, we have only selected a few representative seafoods - Australian lobster, North Sea king crab and Belon oysters, for you to taste. My dear guests, a total of thirty-six dishes are now all served. After the meal, we have also prepared twelve desserts that are a combination of domestic and foreign ones. As for drinks, they are all on the drinks cart here, you can choose yourselves." After the executive said this, he left quickly after saying "Enjoy your meal".
Xiao Zheng laughed awkwardly: "Haha, today we are just riding on the coattails of Xiao Yule and this sister."
Xiao Rong glanced at him with disdain: ...
"Yeah." Cousin Wang Yuan adjusted his glasses and sat up straight. For a moment, he actually looked like a scholar and gentleman.
Xiao Yu smiled but said nothing. He always felt that he had forgotten something important. This matter made him a little nervous, but he just couldn't remember it.
As soon as the hotel executives left, Fourth Uncle Xiao came running over in a panic. He stared at the table and the dishes on it, squatting beside Xiao Zheng with a look of panic on his face, and said, "Ancestor, what's going on? Please don't make trouble for me. I can't afford these dishes even if I sell your Fourth Uncle."
"..." Xiao Zheng pointed to the garbage bag in the corner with his chin. "I've already taken the photos. Big Brother said we need to arrive before 5pm. You can do whatever you want."
Fourth Uncle Xiao (⊙o⊙)…: “Are you serious?” Xiao Feng is here, so he has to spend his wedding night in the hospital?
Xiao Zheng patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, you don't have to pay for this table of food. We can't afford your meal. I just don't want to embarrass Grandpa and the Xiao family. Look, your seat at the main table is untouched, and your family is eating well too. It doesn't offend either side, how great. If your own son got married, and you couldn't sit at the main table, and were treated to a table full of rotten fish and shrimp, and the news got out to your relatives, wouldn't that be embarrassing?"
Fourth Uncle Xiao looked at the location of the garbage bag, then stood up and looked at other tables. Although the entire banquet seemed to be similar, he could still tell that the closer to the main table, the better the banquet.
Thinking of what Xiao Zheng had just said, his expression turned ugly.
Xiao Zheng watched his dejected figure from afar and sneered, "Fourth Uncle is a real actor. He's worthy of being a prominent figure in the capital. If he doesn't become an actor, it would be a huge loss to the entertainment industry."
Li Xiaobao, enjoying the fun, asked curiously, "Uncle, how do you know he's acting?"
Xiao Zheng invited everyone to eat while saying, "Anyone who truly cares about you will see the difference now and react with fury and rage. Did you see him lose his temper?"
"No."
"That means he doesn't have you in his heart! His decadence is just depression. You can see that he's depressed. He actually doesn't care about you at all, or he's depressed because he's embarrassed in front of you."
"But maybe he just wants to consider the overall situation?" Wang Han said.
Xiao Zheng smiled: "The so-called overall situation revolves around the people and things you want to protect. If you like something or someone, do you think you would find a way to protect it?"
"Yeah." Li Xiaobao thought about it and nodded seriously.
"So, he's only taking care of himself. Everything he does now is a show for us, to make us think he's taking care of us. To make us feel bad about embarrassing him so he can continue to be a good person and do good things."
"Xiao Zheng, stop talking. Even a child won't understand." Xiao Rong laughed dryly.
"I understand!" Li Xiaobao said with a 'I'm very smart' look. "Auntie, what uncle means is that the man only wants to save face. We are not part of his overall situation. So, he is putting on an act for us to see, to make us consider his overall situation because we care about him."
"Good." Xiao Zheng gave a thumbs up. "That's exactly what I mean. Look, even a child can see it, but you still pretend to be stupid. He's an elder, but he brings his wife to your place every day to eat for free, and he doesn't even mention paying. What's the matter? Do you think running a shop is a no-cost business? He earns tens of thousands a month at work, and he gets a year-end bonus at the end of the year, so he should save money for himself? What kind of selfish values are these? You still expect him to care about you? In his eyes, you might just be a fool with a lot of money, a sucker."
Sometimes, the truth really only embarrasses those who care.
Although Xiao Zheng predicted Fourth Uncle Xiao's actions, when Fourth Uncle Xiao walked onto the T-stage hand in hand with the bride and smiling, when New Fourth Aunt Xiao held her two-year-old son, interacted only with the bride's guests, and handed the bouquet directly to her younger sister.
When the meals of the members of the 'Pansy Cave' were ostentatiously replaced with main table dishes, the last straw that broke the camel's back was complete.
Xiao Zheng took a big gulp of white wine and said to the people present, "It's right that my eldest brother didn't come today. If he had come, Xiao Chunjie's wedding would have been cancelled. In the future, there would be no Xiao Chunjie in my grandfather's family.
