When Zhou Hui saw a small boss selling building materials stuffing two thick red envelopes into the hands of Zhao Yun and Pei Ziheng, she could no longer hold back.

Zhao Dafa generously booked the entire second floor of the hotel and set up twelve tables for the banquet.

At this time, Shen Mingzhu and Zhou Hui, as hostesses, stood on the left and right of the stairs on the second floor to receive guests.

Shen Mingzhu was accompanied by Pei Wenping and Shen Hongmei, while Zhou Hui also had several close female relatives.

As Zhou Hui finished speaking, the women around her all cast strange looks at Shen Mingzhu.

"It's said that the two families are hosting a banquet together, but the guests here are all from the Zhao family. Don't the Zhao family have to repay the favors and etiquette in the future?"

Hearing what the people around her said, Zhou Hui smiled and said, "My Dafa is kind-hearted and doesn't care about these things. After all, Xiaoyun and Ziheng have a good relationship."

Shen Mingzhu looked at Zhou Hui, "Sister Zhou, I gave you the Pei family's guest list two days ago, and you also booked the banquet according to the list. You didn't mention that we had few guests at that time, so why are you bringing it up now?"

Zhou Hui laughed dryly, "I've been so busy these past two days that I forgot about it."

"Sister Zhou's memory is not very good. When you have nothing to do, you can eat more walnuts to nourish your brain."

Asking her to supplement her brain, isn't that just a subtle hint that she has no brains?

Zhou Hui's face darkened slightly. At this moment, someone ran up from downstairs and reported, "Cousin, there is a distinguished guest outside the hotel, driving an imported car."

Hearing this, the women standing with Zhou Hui all expressed their feelings.

"If someone can afford to drive an imported car, he must be a wealthy boss with a net worth of several million, right?"

"Xiaohui, your family is really going to be very successful. Even a big boss like you came to attend Xiaoyun's graduation banquet."

Zhou Hui smiled brightly, "Not bad, Dafa's business this year is indeed much better than last year."

"It means you are destined to bring prosperity to your husband. Once you marry into our family, your family will be prosperous."

Zhou Hui enjoyed the respect and envy of the people around her, while silently calculating in her heart.

A big boss with a net worth of millions will definitely be generous, and he can't let the kid from the Pei family get away with it for nothing.

Thinking about it, Zhou Hui said to Shen Mingzhu: "The distinguished guest has arrived. I will go down to greet him. You stay here to greet him."

After saying this, without waiting for Shen Mingzhu's response, he turned around, called his stepson Zhao Yun and daughter, and hurried downstairs.

The women around Zhou Hui also followed her downstairs, wanting to see the boss's true face.

Soon, only Shen Mingzhu, Pei Wenping and Shen Hongmei were left at the stairs.

Pei Wenping was a straightforward person. She rolled her eyes at Zhou Hui and the others. "Look how proud she is. Her husband insisted on having you guys host the graduation banquet together. It's as if you guys are taking advantage of her family."

Shen Hongmei agreed, "If it weren't for Ziheng, Xiaoyun wouldn't even be able to go to Nanming. How could she have the nerve to look down on you? She's the one who would destroy the bridge after crossing it."

Shen Mingzhu said calmly: "Don't worry about her. She has no say in the Zhao family and can only talk nonsense in front of me."

After saying that, Shen Mingzhu looked in the direction of Pei Ziheng, and seeing him sitting alone in a daze, she put on a gentle expression and walked over to him.

"Son, are you tired? Do you want to find a place to rest and eat something?"

Pei Ziheng shook his head, his fair and delicate face full of understanding and seriousness, "There will be plenty of time after the break, but there won't be many opportunities to make money."

As he said this, he stuffed all the red envelopes he received today into Shen Mingzhu's hands, "Mom, these are all for you, you can use them to pay for the decoration."

Although the factory's business was good during this period, most of the funds were used to purchase mooncake raw materials, and the decoration of the new factory was also expensive, resulting in Shen Mingzhu being extremely short of money recently.

"Thank you, son. These red envelopes are rewards from your uncles and aunts. Keep them well. Mom will find a way to use the money that the company needs."

Hearing Shen Mingzhu's refusal, Pei Ziheng's pretty face drooped slightly, "It's all my fault that I'm too young. I can't share anything with my mother."

The boy's thick black eyelashes covered his eyelids, and his whole body showed the unhappiness and loss of not being able to help his mother.

Shen Mingzhu's heart softened instantly, "Well, consider this money as a loan from mom, and I'll return it to you after the Mid-Autumn Festival."

A smile instantly appeared on Pei Ziheng's little face.

…

"Look, that's them."

At the entrance of the restaurant, Zhou Hui looked in the direction her cousin pointed and was stunned.

The guests turned out to be two young and beautiful women.

Not only is she wearing expensive clothes, but her temperament is also very elegant. At first glance, she is obviously the eldest daughter of a wealthy family.

Just when Zhou Hui was wondering when Zhao Dafa had made the acquaintance of such a person, Zhao Yun happily ran up and said something to the two of them with a smile.

Seeing this, Zhou Hui thought it was a relative of the Zhao family, so she also walked forward with a smile on her face.

"Hello, everyone. Welcome to Xiaoyun's graduation banquet. Please come in."

However, both of them just looked at her indifferently, with distant expressions.

Zhou Hui was a little embarrassed and winked at Zhao Yun, "Xiao Yun, who are these two..."

"They are Aunt Mingzhu's good friends. I'll take them up first."

Zhao Yun had no intention of introducing Zhou Hui at all. After saying that, he led Zhong Qing and Yan Su into the hotel.

After Zhong Qing and Yan Su entered the restaurant, several female relatives surrounded Zhou Hui and started talking.

"Zhou Hui, aren't they guests of the Zhao family?"

"Didn't Xiaoyun just say that she is Shen Mingzhu's good friend?"

"Look at the bracelets they are wearing. They are all made of fine jade."

"I've seen this car before. I heard it was called a Bentley and it cost over a million dollars."

"Hey, a car costs more than one million? How rich is this family?"

Listening to the discussions of the people around her, Zhou Hui couldn't help but look at the white car not far away, and her heart was filled with mixed feelings.

Shen Mingzhu actually has such a rich friend around her.

…

When we returned to the second floor of the hotel, only Pei Wenping and Shen Hongmei were at the stairs. Shen Mingzhu was nowhere to be seen. I guess she had gone to take the guests to their seats.

Seeing Zhou Hui coming back, Pei Wenping deliberately teased: "Sister Zhou, didn't you go out to meet the distinguished guest? Where is the distinguished guest?"

Zhou Hui was angry inside, but smiled on the surface: "I was wrong, they are Mingzhu's friends."

Pei Wenping also smiled: "Although there are few guests from our Pei family, they are quite important. Miss Yan and Miss Zhong combined are more important than all the guests."

Zhou Hui didn't believe this and thought Pei Wenping was bragging.

Therefore, after the graduation banquet, Zhou Hui asked Zhao Dafa about the identities of Zhong Qing and Yan Su. After learning about their family backgrounds, Zhou Hui was completely speechless.

The Yan family and the Zhong family, one is powerful and the other is wealthy.

It is something that ordinary people like them can only dream of but cannot reach.

…

A few days after the graduation banquet, Jia Yuemei's daughter's full moon banquet was held. (End of this chapter)
