Chapter 578 How can you betray Master Cheng (9)
The banquet began, and everyone went to pay respects to Mr. Wen's birthday one after another.
The men's banquet is very lively here. Mr. Wen has not held this kind of banquet for many years. Today, many people are trying their best to build a good relationship with the Wen family.
Wave after wave of people came up to toast, Wen Ye stood aside to hold back the wine for Mr. Wen, and was drunk a lot.
Xi Nai came back from toasting, saw Gu Ying and the three sitting still, reached out and patted Gu Che who was close to him, "You guys, don't you want to pay the old man a birthday?"
Gu Che paused with his chopsticks, and said quietly, "We're here for a meal."
On this occasion today, there are many people who want to see their jokes. When they go up to pay respects to the old man on his birthday, should they call him old man Wen respectfully, or grandpa?
People didn't say they would admit them, and they didn't need to be affectionate, so as not to make a joke out of themselves.
Xi Nai knew the truth and didn't persuade her much.
It is better for outsiders to meddle less in other people's housework.
At this moment, the women's family banquet seems to be peaceful, but there is already a dark tide surging behind it.
Wen Yi returned from paying respects to old man Wen's birthday, and looked at Gu Qingning with contempt and complacency in her eyes.
"Sister Qingning, it's already here, why don't you go to pay grandpa's birthday?"
She said, as if she suddenly thought of something, she covered her mouth and pretended to be surprised, "Look, I have completely forgotten my memory. Grandpa doesn't want to see you, and I probably don't want you to pay him birthday wishes."
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding immediately fell into silence.
The atmosphere was awkward.
Old Mrs. Wen also noticed the situation here, she declined the conversation of other ladies, got up and walked over.
Seeing this, Wen Zhiyan thought it was not good, and hurriedly followed.
Gu Qingning lowered her eyebrows and drank the soup in the small cup slowly, as she said, she was just here for a meal.
As long as she is not embarrassed, it is someone else who is embarrassed.
Wen Yi, who was ignored, turned ugly, and was a little embarrassed to get off the stage.
She continued, "Sister Qingning, did you bring any gift for grandpa's birthday? Why don't you show it to us to open our eyes."
Gu Qingning still didn't speak, picked up a piece of lobster meat with chopsticks, and ate it leisurely.
The scar is healed, the pain is forgotten, and the painful lesson from the last time is forgotten, Wen Yi goes further and further on the road to death.
"Sister Qingning, you probably didn't bring a gift for grandpa's birthday?" She said with a strange expression.
"But it doesn't matter if you don't bring it, but as a junior, it is still necessary to personally pay respects to the elders..."
A gentle yet stern voice interrupted her, "Wen Yi, what are you doing?"
Everyone watched Mrs. Wen come over, with expressions on their faces waiting for the show.
Wen Yi looked at Mrs. Wen walking over, feeling inexplicably caught.
She showed what she thought was a sweet smile, and affectionately held Mrs. Wen's arm, "Grandma, I'm chatting with Sister Qingning."
"chat?"
Old Madam Wen looked at her suspiciously, "What are you talking about?"
"It's rare for Sister Qingning to come here, and today is grandpa's birthday again, so I want to persuade her to pay respects to grandpa's birthday." Wen Yi changed her aggressive tone just now, and said with understanding.
"After all, we are the juniors, and grandpa is the elder. No matter how angry you are with the elders, it shouldn't be rude, what do you think?"
Wen Zhiyan walked over, glanced at Gu Qingning who was buried in his meal, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.
But there was a gentle and generous smile on his face.
If there is no leakage, it seems to be defending Gu Qingning, but it is actually slandering her, implying that she has never seen the world, and she is angry with Mr. Wen and refuses to pay her birthday.
If it is true that like mother, like daughter, they are all full of bad water.
Wen Yi stuck out her tongue coquettishly, "I didn't think carefully, I'm sorry, Sister Qingning."
People around looked at Gu Qingning, and immediately felt that she was too cold-hearted and arrogant.
At any rate, they are also her relatives in name, and if they take the initiative to show their favor to her, she likes to ignore them, she is really too arrogant.
Could it be that she is so unscrupulous just because of having Lord Cheng as her backer?
Gu Qingning ignored their gazes, and carefully finished eating the small piece of lobster meat.
tasty.
I don’t know if Ah Cheng can make this kind of taste.
Being ignored again, Wen Yi was so angry that she went crazy, and said pitifully, "Grandma, does sister Qingning still hold grudges against me, that's why she doesn't want to talk to me?"
Old Madam Wen withdrew her hand and approached Gu Qingning.
She said in a low voice, "Don't think too much, Qingning just admits life, there is no other meaning."
Everyone can see that Mrs. Wen intends to protect Gu Qingning, so Wen Yi can also see it, and the smile on her face froze instantly.
She said unwillingly, "Grandma, sister Qingning..."
The unfinished words were covered by a hearty voice.
"sister in law."
Jiang Fan had slipped over a long time ago. He wanted to chat with Gu Qingning, but he didn't expect to bump into Wen Yi and make trouble for Gu Qingning.
He hid aside and watched the changes, the more he watched, the more he felt that Wen Yi was too capable.
His sister-in-law ignored her, but she kept provoking her, didn't she want to beat her up?
Gu Qingning paused with his chopsticks and looked sideways at him, "Why are you here?"
Jiang Fan's "sister-in-law" surprised everyone else.
Especially when he learned that the "sister-in-law" he was referring to was Gu Qingning, everyone's expressions became even more confused.
Isn't Gu Qingning together with Master Cheng, why is he still involved with Jiang Fan's brother?
Wen Yi thought that Gu Qingning was stepping on two boats, and decided that she was a flirtatious woman, so she couldn't wait to say, "Sister Qingning, how could you betray Lord Cheng and even seduce Young Master Jiang's elder brother, you are really..."
Speaking of the latter part, she bit her lip, and she hesitated to say, "Master Cheng is so kind to you, and if you hook up like this, you are not letting down Master Cheng's sincerity towards you, you are confused."
Shen Xiran sipped his wine, a mocking sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth.
Of course she knew why Jiang Fan called Gu Qingning's sister-in-law, but it was impossible for her to clarify for Gu Qingning. She wished that Gu Qingning's reputation would be ruined like this.
"Wen Yi, don't talk nonsense, Qing Ning is not that kind of person." Mrs. Wen looked at the people watching around, looked at Wen Yi warningly, and said sharply, "Apologize to Qing Ning quickly."
Being reprimanded under the eyes of everyone, Wen Yi's face was dull, and she hated Gu Qingning so much in her heart, she pretended to be wronged and apologized, "Sister Qingning, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said this in front of so many people."
Once these words came out, it was easier for people to misunderstand.
Everyone has gossiping expressions.
Jiang Fan was dumbfounded.
What the hell?
He looked at Wen Yi with the eyes of a mentally retarded person, and said, "No, there is something wrong with you, my sister-in-law and my elder brother don't know each other, so don't be so outrageous when you talk nonsense, right?"
Well, and ha...
It will be announced after the update.
