Dong Li kept walking around the living room with an anxious expression, and Yu Jiannan also teased Xia Li from time to time with funny things.

Xia Li was very helpless to surprise herself by hiding that the mother and daughter were so obvious.

A few minutes later, the guard at the gate rang the phone, someone came, and Dong Li let people in without even asking.

Xia Li shook her head a little funny, but as soon as the phone hung up, the phone from the guardhouse came again, saying that a car was coming in.

Dong Li, who answered the phone, was dumbfounded, who was here just now?

Xia Li walked to the gate of the courtyard, the first wave came of course her apprentice Wang Mingjing, Wang Mingjing jumped off the car in a hurry, and rushed to Xia Li at once, Xia Li turned his head to look at the car, and from the other end of the car came down a strong man with a height of one meter nine, with a fierce face, who is not Ruan Xiongba?

Xia Li greeted with a smile, but she was a little disappointed in her heart, she thought it was Jiang Peimo who came back, and couldn't help but be a little funny, Jiang Peimo would not be with Wang Mingjing even if he came back, Wang Mingjing came from Xiangjiang.

Dong Li also stood at the door, and the van behind her was the staff of the image studio she found.

Dong Li beckoned people to go into the house as soon as she saw it, and the three of them went in with a lot of packaging bags and a bunch of boxes waiting for Hulala, Wang Mingjing asked curiously, "What is this for?"

Dong Li said with a smile: "Today is our Xia Li's eighteenth birthday, and the family held a small coming-of-age ceremony for her, just four o'clock in the afternoon, this is the person from the studio, who came to dress her, just came, let's celebrate together!"

Wang Mingjing's eyes widened, and he looked surprised, "Master, what a coincidence!"

Ruan Xiongba on the side smiled stupidly: "It's okay, I brought a gift for the master!"

Wang Mingjing glared at Ruan Xiongba angrily when she heard this, she didn't bring anything valuable, it was all bird's nest and seafood, so she quickly picked up the phone and asked her friends here to help her prepare.

Xia Li wanted to stop it, but Dong Li was already in a hurry to pull people to a vacant room on the first floor, where a row of clothes had been hung at this time, and the table was full of cosmetics and some jewelry.

Yu Jianan smiled and said, "Surprised, right?"

Xia Li was really aggrieved and speechless, could she say that she knew about it seven or eight days ago?

The old lady really didn't know, looking at a bunch of people smearing her granddaughter, wiping her tears excitedly, Dong Li comforted on the side: "Mom, don't cry, it won't look good when you put on makeup, today is Xia Li's happy day!"

Xia Li's face was covered with a thick layer of mask cream, and when she heard Dong Li's big day, she almost fell off the bed, making it look like she was getting married today.

Today is not only Xia Li, the whole family is going to dress up, the old lady's originally black hair was blown out of a big wave on the top of her head, looking like a rich old lady in a Hong Kong and Taiwan film, and it is even more foreign to change into the loose cheongsam and pearl necklace bought at home.

Yu Jianan is a small pink dress, with long hair simply standing up at the back, which is very youthful and energetic.

Dong Li is an intellectual beige casual suit, simple and atmospheric.

After the face was tossed, the makeup artist exclaimed: "Your skin is very delicate, you can hardly see pores, and you don't even have a single acne scar, just apply a little powder." ”

After the face is primed, I simply put on a layer of powder, lightly sweep the eyebrows, and tap the red lips, which is very energetic.

Xia Li's hair was braided by the hairstylist from the top of the head, all the way to the tail, and a particularly beautiful scorpion braid was braided, and after being stuck with a beautiful rhinestone clip, the designer took out a set of royal blue mermaid skirts from a pile of clothes to compare with Xia Li, and said with satisfaction: "Your temperament is cold and elegant, and you can completely suppress this blue mermaid skirt!"

After changing, the overall effect is really good, the designer frowned and stared at Xia Li for a long time, she always felt that something was missing, and finally she put her eyes on Xia Li's slightly bulging chest, revealing the original expression.

Yu Jiannan on the side, Wang Mingjing couldn't help laughing wildly for a while.

Xia Li angrily wanted to smoke the two, but was pulled by the designer to the bed, and the clothes were taken off again, and then the designer split a pair of beautiful breasts and put them out, helped Xia Li put them on, and then put on the fishtail skirt again before nodding with satisfaction: "That's right!"

The two people on the side didn't dare to laugh if they wanted to laugh, and Xia Li would definitely be mad if they laughed again.

After everyone here had packed up, they set off directly from home, and the old lady asked, "What about Zhongguo?"

Dong Li's hair was coiled high, revealing a slender and tender white neck, and she looked nervous at this time, and hurriedly replied when she heard her mother-in-law's question: "It's over there at the hotel." ”

After eating at noon, Xia Zhongguo first went to the image design studio to change clothes, blow his hair, and went to the hotel early to see how the layout was, Jiang's family called him three days ago, saying that the whole family came back to participate, plus some friends of Xia Li, friends of himself and Dong Li, must not make mistakes, his daughter is eighteen years old in this life.

The banquet hall is very youthful and warm, with fresh lilies and pink roses in a water, and a peach heart surrounded by flowers on the table, with the words "Happy birthday baby!"

When Dong Li and the others arrived, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and they were about to get out of the car in a hurry, but they didn't notice that there was a platform under their feet, and they almost fell down in one go.

Dong Li was scared enough, this one was definitely going to break the head and bleed, so she was busy holding on to her mind to calm down, turned her head and said with a smile: "Big pear, thank you!"

Xia Li knew that Dong Li's thank you meant a lot, especially her stomach that was less than three months old now, and said with a smile: "We are a family, what are you polite!"

Dong Li's smile became even bigger when she heard this, yes, they are a family.

After Dong Li went in, she found Xia Zhongguo, who was busy, Xia Zhongguo was still directing the workers to set up the booth, and when she heard Dong Li's shout, she turned her head, and saw her daughter Xia Li standing behind at first sight.

The daughter is like the brightest star in the starry sky, Xia Zhongguo suddenly thought of the moment when the child was born, small and soft, but he couldn't love it enough, and tears poured out for a while, and there was a kind of moving that the girl in my family had just grown up.

Seeing this, Dong Li said angrily: "When we got married, I didn't see you moved to tears!"

Xia Li was also full of emotion in her heart at this time, looking at Xia Zhongguo, who was only a few steps away from herself, this was her biological father of this body, but not hers, but she gave her a father's love, she could feel his every worry, the love was from the heart, the sadness was also there, and there were many touches, maybe God wanted to make up for the regret of his lack of family affection in his previous life.

Xia Li stepped forward with elegant steps and said with a smile: "Dad, Aunt Dong, thank you!"

Dong Li's mood fluctuated greatly because of her pregnancy, and when she saw Xia Zhongguo crying, her heart was also sour, and when she heard Xia Li say thank you, tears flowed down, and Yu Jiannan on the side was startled: "Mom, think about something happy, don't dare to cry, I'm going to go out to welcome guests in a while!"

Dong Li's mood has changed a lot, and she has been crying a mess when she watches a Korean drama recently, and her eyes are swollen without crying, so Yu Jiannan is nervous.

When Dong Li heard this, she felt that her daughter reprimanded her, and said aggrievedly: "Mom just feels moved, woo woo." ”

The original touching atmosphere dissipated suddenly, everyone persuaded Dong Li, and after Dong Li put away her tears, they hurriedly went to the door of their hall, and the guests had come one after another at this time.

The first to arrive is the aunt's family, the eldest cousin has begun to develop in Hunan Province, plus Xia Li's money to the old lady, directly bought a second-hand house in an old community, not to mention the low price, the area is still large, more than 180 square meters, just moved in.

The aunt of the Xia family is also a smart person, and she directly bought two houses for 500,000 yuan, one is a large but second-hand old house in Hunan Province, and the other is a new house in a good location in Wuming County, only more than 90 square meters.

Cousin Dang Weiwei learned that her mother got 500,000 yuan, which was to see the sky, and the aunt of the Xia family also saw through this daughter, this child has really become bad, so she just let it go, and when she got married, she married a car, and now she wants a dime.

Dang Weiwei was not at ease, afraid that before she got married, the money in the mother's hand would be posted to the eldest brother and sister-in-law, saying that it was not used when the car was driven, she wanted it now, so the aunt of the Xia family bought her a car of eighty or ninety thousand, and under the reminder of her daughter-in-law, she set up a special note, so as not to let her daughter admit it at that time.

Dang Weiwei quarreled with her sister-in-law angrily, she actually really had such a plan, and then asked the old lady when she got married, she was her own daughter, she couldn't be so clear, but she didn't expect her sister-in-law to come up with such an idea, and the old lady really let herself make a note, otherwise she wouldn't buy her a car.

Dang Weiwei was in the back, looking at such a high-end hotel, and looking at the clothes of her uncle's family, she was angry for no reason, and after she was allowed to sit down at the table on the side, she sarcastically said to the aunt of the Xia family: "Mom, look at what your uncle and their family are wearing, and then look at your own sister, just like a beggar!"

The aunt of the Xia family was not angry, but said coldly: "If you talk nonsense again, get out of here!"

Dang Weiwei's mouth grew in surprise, with a look of disbelief, and the aunt of the Xia family continued: "You are really a white-eyed wolf who can't be raised, if it weren't for the girl you were the only girl in the hospital the week you gave birth, I even wonder if I was holding the wrong child, how can I have a daughter like you, you drove the car that your uncle paid for ten minutes ago, how long has it been since you said bad things behind your back?" Dang Weiwei, do you have a heart?"

Dang Weiwei's pretty face turned red, and she looked carefully to the side to see if she had paid attention to them, fortunately, few people didn't notice the conversation between the two, and she was angry and wanted to get up and leave, but when she thought that her uncle's family was now so good, if she left like this, she would lose the opportunity to meet rich people, so she sat down again.

When the aunt of the Xia family saw that she said this, her daughter could bear it and not leave, and she couldn't help but be completely disappointed in her daughter, how much she wanted to climb the big tree of her younger brother, it was normal to want to climb, but you despised it while clinging, and there was a problem.

The people who surprised Xia Zhongguo came one after another many people he didn't know, but they all knew the names in the newspaper, and they were all celebrities at all levels in the province.

Although Dong Li's mood fluctuated a lot after she became pregnant, her brain was still online, and she immediately realized that something was wrong, and they didn't invite these people.

Regardless of whether there is an invitation or not, it is necessary to entertain good guests, Dong Li is busy going to the hotel manager to arrange, they are engaged in a more popular buffet, what is needed now is to improve the quality of the next meal, the wine side should be a little better, and the table should be added more.

As soon as Dong Li left, Old Man Jiang and Old Lady Jiang came in, and behind her was Jiang Dahan with a particularly feminine-looking woman.

Xia Zhongguo hurriedly stepped forward to receive him, Jiang Dahan smiled and introduced the woman next to him, although Xia Li had never seen this woman, she also knew that it should be Jiang He's mother and Jiang Peimo's stepmother.

Yu Mingyang had seen Xia Li in the photos taken by his youngest son before, but when he saw the real person, he felt that he had a good temperament, clear and cold, and when he smiled, it was only faint, just like the sea in the early morning, he couldn't help laughing: "Xia Li, Peimo's vision is really special!"

Xia Li was a little stunned, she didn't expect this Jiang Peimo's stepmother to say it so directly.

Although the relationship between her and Jiang Peimo has not been spread, the two families have already acquiesced, but it is the first time that she has said it publicly.

Xia Zhongguo also felt that this was not good, after all, the relationship between his daughter and Jiang Peimo's stinky boy had not been determined, which would have an impact on his daughter's reputation.

At this moment, Jiang Dahan laughed, patted Xia Zhongguo's shoulder and said: "Brother Xia, I also advocate independently, I heard that I am going to hold a birthday banquet for Xia Li, so I invited some of my good friends to come and do a testimony, my Jiang family officially proposed to your Brother Xia, hoping that Xia Li can marry my son." ”

Jiang Dahan said this very seriously, Xia Zhongguo glanced at his daughter, and when he saw her, he was also surprised, and couldn't help frowning slightly, shouldn't he say it in private, on an occasion like today, can he change his daughter's birthday banquet to an engagement banquet?

Jiang Dahan was also a little embarrassed, his son's arrangement was a little rude, so he pulled Xia Zhongguo to the side and muttered, and when Xia Zhongguo, who came back again, looked much better, and asked Dong Li to take someone to the hall to arrange the seats in the front row.

Xia Li was shocked when she came here, and she didn't hear what the two of them said.
