20. Celebrations
Tang Xin smiled, grabbed it unceremoniously and took it in his hand, and politely thanked the embarrassed Li Qingze, "Thank you, Dad!"
Li Siqing, who was stunned throughout the whole process, rolled her eyes and muttered beside her, "It's just a broken handbag, it's all worth it, it's really a little family!"
Tang Xin smiled and said to everyone, "It's not early, let's move to the front hall, the ceremony is about to start!"
So everyone walked out with a relaxed expression.
Mu Junyao turned to look at Tang Xin, her heart hurt slightly, she seemed to be happy on the outside to face such unbearable family affection, her little face with a sweet smile at all times had so many hidden feelings and calculations behind it, just looking at her way of doing things, probably no one believed that she was only 18 years old.
Lu Zhengqi patted his arm, "Let's go!" The two walked out, Lu Zhengqi shook his head and said in a helpless tone, "Those people only said that she had a good life, would be reincarnated, born with a golden spoon, brocade clothes and jade food, wealth and glory," "Who would have thought that she was just a child without a father and no mother, and she was expected to be placed on her since she was a child, forcing her to keep studying, studying, studying, she has been trying to make herself better and more worthy of her grandfather's expectations of her, but she is just a child." Lu Zhengqi stopped, pointed to the sky and said to Mu Junyao, "You see how big the world is, but there are really few who really love her and care about her!" sighed, "Actually, she doesn't care, you think, mother's love for her can't be obtained, father's love just now you also saw that there is only one real relative who doesn't want her, and all that surrounds her is human affection!" Speaking of this, Lu Zhengqi's body seemed to collapse suddenly, "She saw it very openly, especially after the old man passed away, she told me that she would rather use a switch to keep her mother alive." Lu Zhengqi sighed, "Life always has to move forward, we just want her to be happy, and the rest is really not important!" After speaking, he patted Mu Junyao and walked forward.
Mu Junyao looked at Lu Zhengqi's back, his heart was full of touch, he hadn't seen him for so long but made him more aware of his feelings, like Lu Zhengqi, he also wanted her to be happy!
Tang Xin and the others left, handed the bag in her hand to Sister Rong, Sister Rong looked at her smiling face and quickly caught it, and opened the zipper, "Little Miss," Sister Rong's face changed, and she put the bag in front of Tang Xin's eyes, Tang Xin reached out and took out a ruby necklace from the bag, Sister Rong frowned and scolded, "Phew, it's really shameless, I stole the door!"
Tang Xin smiled disappreciatively and comforted her, "Forget it," he hung the necklace on his chest, looked at Sister Rong and winked, "Is it good-looking?"
Sister Rong smiled, "It's good-looking, our little lady is the best-looking!"
Tang Xin smiled sweetly, and said as he walked out, "The ceremony is about to start, I'll go out first, you will take care of your mother's room and bring you a cake later, today's cake is made by the master of the Four Seasons Hotel!"
Sister Rong nodded hurriedly in response, "Okay!"
The open stone slab in front of the Tang Yuan ancestral hall has long been arranged with flowers, and there are one hundred and ten seats neatly arranged on the red carpet, the old Tang clan and important guests from the political and business circles have been seated in the front row, and the other close relatives of the Tang family are close behind, and then there are the middle and senior management of the company, acquaintances and friends of the Tang family, etc., the TV station did not sit down, and stood behind with long guns and short cannons ready to record this important moment.
As soon as the time came, Lu Zhengqi led Tang Xin to the stage, and the lively crowd stood in front of the microphone and quieted down.
Lu Zhengqi was dressed in a dark gray suit, full of energy and full of face. Tang Xin wore a long crescent white dress, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and long hair pulled up high, dignified and elegant.
Ding Jiahui saw the dazzling ruby necklace on her chest, which made her pretty face shine, and she clenched the back socket tightly with hatred, and her eyes showed an unwilling fierce light.
"Welcome everyone to Tang Xin's birthday banquet and succession ceremony, thank you very much!" Lu Zhengqi had a gentle and decent smile on his face, and took Tang Xin to bow slightly.
The applause below was thunderous, and the magnesium lights flashed in unison.
Lu Zhengqi waited for the applause to subside, and continued, "I believe that everyone is looking forward to the arrival of this day like the Tang family, and our Tang family's heir has finally grown into what she should be!" After Lu Zhengqi finished speaking, he looked down at the girl beside him, and his heart was moved like an old father, Tang Xin also raised his head and smiled sweetly at him, "I believe that the Tang family will have a brighter and better tomorrow in the hands of the new successor!" Next, the succession ceremony begins!"
The crowd below took out their mobile phones and cameras to prepare for the record.
The so-called ceremony is actually that Lu Zhengqi and the clan elders will hand over a golden key to Tang Xin on behalf of the Tang clan.
At this moment, Tang Xin stood there quietly, with a shallow smile on his face, a firm and calm look in his eyes, and walked on the stage wearing a ceremonial robe, bringing the Huanghuali box containing the golden key to Lu Zhengqi and the clan elder, Lu Zhengqi opened the box and made a gesture to the clan elder, the clan elder nodded slightly, picked up an eight or nine centimeter long metal key in the box with both hands, turned around and walked towards Tang Xin, stood still in front of Tang Xin, closed his eyes and muttered a few words, and then opened his eyes and looked at her lovingly, and said loudly, " Tang Xin, the nineteenth generation ruler of the Tang clan, stepped forward to receive the golden key!"
Tang Xin leaned forward, bowed his head slightly, the clan elder hung the golden key on her smooth neck, Tang Xin raised his head, and another etiquette lady approached the clan elder with a small square tripod, the clan elder fished out a branch with a few green leaves from the tripod, and gently knocked on the top of Tang Xin's head, and then the clan elder helped Tang Xin up, and took Tang Xin to burn incense and worship in the direction of the Tang clan ancestral hall, and the ceremony was completed.
The audience once again burst into thunderous applause, the Tang family's succession ceremony was completely passed down in accordance with the rules of the past dynasties, although the process was simple and not brilliant, but it was only seen once in decades, so many people rushed to see the ceremony alone, of course, being able to come to watch the ceremony was at least related to the Tang family.
Mu Junyao's big hands slowly applauded, the corners of his mouth naturally hooked his eyes and looked closely at the radiant chick on the stage, she was indeed very attractive, in every way it was very attractive, and there was a kind of slowly rising desire in his heart to entangle him.
Li Qingze looked at the girl on the stage with a proper smile on his face, and his heart was mixed, he had worked hard for 20 years, and the edge of the Tang family was not touched, and the girl on the stage easily got it because of her surname Tang!
Li Siqing's eyes lit fire, Tang Xin's beauty, figure, studies, family background, friends, etc. are all the reasons for her jealousy, she hates her, hates this person who snatched her father! hates this person who makes her father unrecognized!
Ding Jiahui smiled and groaned, looking at the girl on the stage with infinite scenery, and said proudly, Tang Yirou, your daughter is in the limelight, but unfortunately, you can't see it, and I'm helping you watch it!
After the ceremony was completed, Lu Zhengqi and the clan elder retreated to the edge of the stage slightly, leaving the stage to the new head of the Tang family, the two stood with their hands down, waiting for Tang Xin to speak, Tang Xin stood in front of the microphone with a sweet smile on his face, and waited for the crowd to gradually quiet, Tang Xin said with a serious face, "Ah, I didn't expect my grandfather to lie to me!" Seeing a commotion from the crowd, Tang Xin smiled and raised the golden key on his chest and said, "This key is not gold!"
The audience laughed after hearing this, and then burst into applause.
Mu Junyao looked at the girl on the stage with a smile, obviously she was still fighting wits with her biological father half an hour ago, and now she is standing here and joking with everyone in a good mood. The corners of the mouth are hooked, and the chick is really getting more and more interesting.
Tang Xin patiently waited for the applause to subside again, smiled and nodded, "Well, it's much better now, everyone is not so nervous!"
The audience was amused by her again and applauded.
Tang Xin smiled and said, "I'm sorry everyone, I've been spoiled by my grandfather and Uncle Qi, I have no rules, please don't mind!" Without waiting for a response from the audience, Tang Xin continued, "But the sugar powders in the back rows of Tang's should be more pleasant, after all, Tang's finally has a less serious leader!" After speaking, the audience burst into laughter and applause.
Tang Xin smiled and turned his head to look at Lu Zhengqi, and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Qi, I will soon enter the time period of serious and high-sounding words," the audience burst into laughter, Lu Zhengqi hugged the audience with a smile on his face, Tang Xin laughed a few times, adjusted a serious appearance, and said, "Thank you very much for your support to the Tang family, I have only one hope, that is, I hope that you can continue to support the Tang family as always during my tenure! Tang Xin smiled and covered his chest and bowed down, stood up and said to the audience applauding, "Please pick up the wine glasses below," a team of hostesses entered with tray wine glasses, and offered red wine to the guests in an orderly manner, Tang Xin looked at the crowd, took the lead in raising his glass and said with a smile, "To life!
Everyone raised their glasses together, and someone in the crowd shouted, "Congratulations to Miss Tang!" and "Happy birthday Miss Tang!"
The audience congratulated one after another.
Tang Xin smiled and drank it all, and happily announced, "The banquet begins, everyone can do their own thing!"
The crowd dispersed, the music sounded, Tang Xin walked over and helped the clan elder with one hand and pulled Lu Zhengqi to the stage while walking mischievously, "What's the matter, am I okay?!"
Lu Zhengqi raised his hand and tapped lightly on her head, and said in a doting tone, "You troublemaker!"
Tang Xin pouted and said coquettishly to the clan elder beside him, "Clan elder, do you care about Uncle Guan Qi, he is also the top leader of the Tang clan, don't you want to lose face!?"
The clan elder laughed and said happily, "I don't mix! I'll drink! Hahaha." ”
Tang Xin immediately said with concern, "Clan Elder, are you still drinking, do you believe it or not, I will report to your grandmother in a while?!"
The clan elder laughed again, "Your grandmother may be hiding in a corner drinking!"
"Ah?!" Tang Xin said speechlessly, "Then the big grandmother should pull you! ”
The clan elder said happily, "Little Tang Xin, you, when you have a company, you will know, it is also a pleasure to be able to drink alone!
Tang Xin pouted, and said pitifully, "I would like to!
Lu Zhengqi and the clan elders all laughed, and Lu Zhengqi said with a straight face, "Yes, yes, it depends on whether you want to or not!"
Tang Xin also said with a straight face, "Uncle Qi, are you serious, you are only 18 years old, is it good to be a girl! Who wants to fall in love!"
The two smiled again, Lu Zhengqi nodded, and said approvingly, "Well, it's our good girl!" The good girl smiled sweetly at him, and Lu Zhengqi continued, "Good girl, now we're going to do the right thing, oh," Lu Zhengqi raised his chin, pointed to the few people in the middle of the front who were hugged left and right, and said, "A few big leaders have to be recognized, and there are some important partners." ”
Tang Xin listened to him obediently, and when he finished speaking, he smiled and said, "I didn't expect to be so tired on the first day of work!"
Lu Zhengqi nodded her forehead, "This is the first step in the Long March!"
Tang Xinli put on an ambitious look.
Lu Zhengqi rubbed her head dotingly, fortunately she has a cheerful personality, and Tang Yirou's tragic ending cannot be repeated!
