Chapter 231 Banquet Slap 7
11:30 am.
The birthday banquet was in full swing and guests arrived at the Lu family one after another.
There were more than ten banquet tables in the spacious courtyard, and many people came to the center of the courtyard to celebrate the birthday and give gifts.
Most of the people invited by Mrs. Lu were business tycoons who had business dealings with the Lu family, or fake sisters. She only gave expensive gifts, such as the same old jade Buddhist scriptures.
Seeing that the time was almost right, Bai Yao pushed Lu Chuwan, who then went upstairs to get a priceless painting. She walked to the center of the venue and smiled, "Grandma, I know you like paintings and calligraphy. My mother and I asked someone to buy this for you at an auction abroad. I hope you like it."
Lu Chuwan slowly unfolded Master Liu's calligraphy and painting, and the winter plum blossoms appeared lifelike under the severe cold wind and frost.
The Bai Yao family spent a huge amount of money to buy this calligraphy and painting in order to please Old Madam Lu.
As expected, as Mrs. Lu's eyes swept over Master Liu's calligraphy and paintings, she heard the guests whispering, and their comments on the calligraphy and paintings were all praising Lu Chuwan's generosity and filial piety.
A painting with a market value of 30 million.
He nodded with a smile on the spot and said, "Good boy, you are thoughtful."
Although there wasn't much praise, the joy on his face was uncontrollable.
Bai Yao and Lu Chuwan looked at each other, and then Bai Yao set her sights on Fu Zhi. "Today is your grandmother's birthday party, and it's also a good day for her to recognize your identity. Where is the gift you prepared?"
"You can't take your grandma's eight million for nothing. The gift she gave you in the end is not as thoughtful as your cousin's, right?"
"Of course, it will be more thoughtful than her calligraphy and painting."
Fu Zhi ignored the deep meaning in Bai Yao's words and said seriously: "She gave me eight million because it was her duty and she was also grateful to me for saving her from being almost killed by your daughter's random drug feeding."
As Fu Zhi finished speaking, some guests who knew that Old Madam Lu was critically ill some time ago began to whisper.
Lu Chuwan’s smile paused and her expression turned ugly.
You have to know that Fu Zhi's words and actions undoubtedly put her in an unkind and unjust position.
Lu Chuwan was speechless. At the critical moment, it was still Mrs. Lu who blamed Fu Zhi, "It's a good birthday, why are you saying these unlucky things? You have no sense at all, like a stupid goose!"
"That's right, since you prepared a gift for your grandma, what about the gift? What's the point of just saying that the birthday gift is more thoughtful than the one we prepared?" Bai Yao retorted.
Old Mrs. Lu set her sights on Fu Zhi. The second branch of the Lu family was quite wealthy. The old lady was looking forward to her gift and hoped that Fu Zhi would bring honor to her.
But at this moment, compared with the indifference on Fu Zhi's face, Xu Wei and Lu Jingqing felt a little embarrassed.
The calligraphy and paintings they bought from Master He were much cheaper than those from Master Liu, and they gave the paintings to Lu Chuwan after him...
Xu Wei tightened the gift in her hand. For a moment, she didn't know what to do. Then, Mrs. Liu walked out of the banquet hall to the center, holding a painting that was not framed in a gift box.
"Madam, this is the gift Miss Fu asked me to prepare for you. Miss Lu asked me to bring it to you to see." The calligraphy and painting were given to her by Fu Zhi and she was asked to put it away. Mrs. Liu pursed her lips, not understanding the twists and turns here.
But Xu Wei understood it very well. The gift she prepared for Zhizhi was in her hand, and the one in Mrs. Liu's hand could only be the words written by Zhizhi herself. In such an occasion, if she caused such a thing, she would be accused of disrespecting the elderly.
