Time flows, and like this, the busyness passes. There was still a week left before the birthday banquet of the eldest lady of the Zhuang family, and Mo Yunheng, the head of the Mo family, finally remembered one thing after listening to the boiling discussions around him.

Why hasn't the dealer sent an invitation to their Mo family until now? Could it be negligence and forgetting? Or does the dealer feel that since the two are already so familiar, they don't even distribute invitations? But these rituals should not be saved.

At this time, Mo Yunheng would not have thought that the dealer really did not plan to send an invitation to their Mo family.

Mo Yunheng now sent a housekeeper to investigate.

After the housekeeper of the Mo family got the information in his hand, he browsed it first, and his eyes widened for a while before he took the information and reported it to Mo Yunheng in a panic.

Mo Yunheng was furious, and immediately called Mo Yunsheng to teach this self-willed sister a lesson, and seeing that she was still unconvinced on her face, he snorted coldly: "Say I don't protect you?" How much mess have I cleaned up for you since I was a child? But look at what you're doing! Are you still young and ignorant? Hmph, it's just that in previous years, I indulged you too much, but let you live more and more. Yunsheng, you have to take responsibility for what you do this time. Tomorrow you personally go to the dealer's house to apologize to the eldest lady. Otherwise, in the end, our Mo family won't be able to get the invitation, and the Qin family won't spare you. Qin Qing came to me to inquire about the reason before, and asked me to find a reason to prevaricate, but if the dealer wants to teach you a lesson, the Qin family will know what is going on sooner or later. At that time, I won't be so cheeky to come forward for you, you can do it yourself. ”

After saying it in one breath, Mo Yunheng loosened his tie, and the anger against Mo Yunsheng in his heart also stopped for the time being, took a sip of tea from the table and rested his throat.

Mo Yunsheng listened to Mo Yunheng's words in his heart.

The Qin family has been camping everywhere over the years, trying to have a good relationship with several major families in Kyoto, this time Zhuang Yiwei's slut didn't know what luck he was, so he made Mr. Zhuang value it so much, an ordinary birthday banquet, almost invited more than everyone with a face in Kyoto, but also invited some second- and third-rate families. If the Qin family was pulled down and did not receive the invitation, it would be equivalent to announcing to everyone in Kyoto that the Qin family was not treated by the dealer, which was tantamount to blocking the Qin family's road to wealth and nobility. If the Qin family knew that there was a reason for this, it would definitely be a big trouble. In previous years, Mo Yunsheng had the support of his brother, so he was naturally not afraid. But now this matter has implicated the Mo family, and her brother refuses to make a move, so she has to bow her head. Even if he couldn't bear to vomit blood in his heart, Mo Yunsheng had to exhale slowly,* and said, "I know." ”

This Mo Yunsheng decided to bow to Zhuang Yiwei, but Zhuang Yiwei was busy with her own career and all kinds of unheard of etiquette training, but she couldn't find time to see her at all. Moreover, even if she is really free, Zhuang Yiwei may not be willing to pay attention to Mo Yunsheng, and it is impossible for her to apologize sincerely.

Mo Yunsheng suppressed his temper and came for three days in a row, and finally broke out and made a big fuss at the door of the village.

Zhuang Yiran found Zhuang Yiwei during the period, taught Zhuang Yiwei a lesson with righteous words, and said something that should be forgiving and forgiving, and it is not appropriate to settle the dispute. Before Zhuang Yiwei could speak, Steward Zhuang helped to block back. In addition, several people in the second room of the dealer also had the idea of receiving Mo Yunsheng in, so as to look at Zhuang Yiwei's jokes. Who knew that as soon as he moved, he was resolved one by one by the housekeeper Zhuang without being soft or hard. Joke! Old Man Zhuang obviously wants to make Zhuang Yiwei angry, how can he tolerate the second room of the Zhuang family to make small moves here?

After that, Zhuang Yiwei didn't pay attention to this matter anymore, only heard a little, and just laughed it off.

In a blink of an eye, it was Zhuang Yiwei's birthday banquet.

The birthday party is held not at the dealer's house, but at the Marina Hotel. Built along the coast, facing the deep and magnificent seaside, the golden Bund and white sand like jade, romantic and vast, beautiful, has always been the favorite place for Kyoto dignitaries to hold banquets. The beach covers a wide area and is divided into several areas, usually for a junior birthday party, it is already very decent to be able to rent an area, you must know that the banquet of this coastal hotel is very popular all year round. However, Mr. Zhuang chartered the entire hotel very generously, which is staggering.

This move also once again showed Kyoto that Zhuang Yiwei's status in the banker's family.

This sounds like a very decent banquet, but Zhuang Yiwei was about to cry after seeing today's flow chart.

I only plan to do it small! Is this noodle also called small? There are thousands of tables at the table alone, so how do you have to toss it when it comes to the coming-of-age ceremony!

Fortunately, Zhuang Qing didn't plan to exhaust her granddaughter, but just let her show her face and recognize people during a few more important banquets, and the rest of the seats were entertained by others in the banker's house.

And this list of "important people" certainly includes the Kyoto Chen family.

Of course, the Chen family will not be unaware of the fact that the eldest lady of the dealer has reappeared in the Kyoto circle in a high-profile manner. But because Zhuang Yiwei used to be shy and gloomy, she didn't like Wei Zi, and Chen Cunli didn't care much about these things, because their relationship was not intimate in the past years. At this moment, Wei Zi heard the news of how beautiful Zhuang Yiwei had become, and she was suspicious. Her impression of Zhuang Yiwei has always stayed at the gloomy girl who bowed her head.

Zhuang Yiran came to visit the door before, and Wei Zi asked her to bring Zhuang Yiwei to have a look, but Zhuang Yiran looked lonely and embarrassed. It is only said that Zhuang Yiwei has become very sought after now, and she is very busy every day. And the sisters haven't seen each other for a long time, and the relationship is not as good as before.

Although Zhuang Yiran's words were unknown, how could Wei Zi not be able to see through Zhuang Yiwei from her words?

At the beginning, Zhuang Yiwei's appearance was unpleasant when she looked bad, and she was not pleasing at all, so Zhuang Yiran was kind, and often took her out to make friends. It's good now, her strange illness has been cured, but her heart is also high. In previous years, Zhuang Yiran's good was left behind, and he was really heartless and ungrateful. Not to mention, what's going on with being so sought after and busy? Has she forgotten that she is a betrothed person? What's the deal with attracting bees and butterflies outside?

When Wei Zi thought about it, she was angry, and made up her mind never to put down her body and take the initiative to contact Zhuang Yiwei. I want to see when Zhuang Yiwei remembered to visit her elder.

waited for three months.

Wei Zi was so angry that she was ready to attack Zhuang Yiwei at this birthday banquet.

So when Zhuang Yiwei came to this table to toast, Wei Zi spoke: "I haven't seen you these times, Yiwei is already a big girl." I was thinking about inviting you to play at home in the next post, but I thought it was rusty. You have been with us since you were a child, and in a few days, you yourself will come to see us. But I'm waiting left and right, but I haven't seen you coming. It really broke my heart. ”

Zhuang Yiwei held the goblet, and her originally slightly smiling expression was almost imperceptible.

Although Wei Zi said this half-jokingly, she always felt that she did not mean well.

Zhuang Yiwei had read the information before, so she naturally knew that Wei Zi was the wife of the current family of the Chen family and the mother of Chen Zhi.

And if the marriage between the Zhuang and Chen families continues, then Wei Zi will also be her future mother-in-law.

From this point of view, Wei Zi has no reason to say something at her birthday party that makes it easy to question her character. After all, the future daughter-in-law has a bad character, and it is not a shameful thing for the Chen family.

Maybe she's too sensitive.

Zhuang Yiwei glanced at her grandfather beside her.

Grandpa said that she was the protagonist of this birthday party, and she had to support the scene by herself. Originally, Zhuang Yiwei thought that she would have to face these big names who only existed in news TV alone, and she didn't want her grandfather to let her face it by herself, but he still accompanied her.

With her grandfather by her side, what's so scary about her?

Zhuang Yiwei said: "It's Yiwei's fault, Yiwei apologized to you." I used to recuperate abroad and was cured, but I don't remember many things, and even the rules and etiquette have been pulled down. Grandpa said that I had to learn again, and I should not be rude in front of the elders, so I didn't bother me for the time being. ”

Wei Zi still smiled: "You kid." The rules are all false, you just learn slowly. What matters is your heart, we all watched you grow up, even if there is any rudeness, how can we blame you. You're separated from us. You don't have to coax us. Recently, everything in Kyoto has been talking about you, and you have been in the limelight lately. I also know that you young people love to play, and that's not wrong. ”

If it was just a suspicion just now, then now Zhuang Yiwei can be sure that Wei Zi is indeed not good.

It is true that Zhuang Yiwei did not visit these patriarchs, and it is also true that she has been in the limelight recently. But originally these two things were not related, Wei Zi's words were so vague, but it became that she was ugly, and she had just become beautiful, so she recruited bees and butterflies in the Kyoto circle, and even the elders did not visit, and after being preached by the elders, she did not repent and lied in public.

She pointed to every word, and said that she was a person who did not understand the rules, disrespected her elders, loved vanity, and lied in public.

Zhuang Yiwei raised her eyes and swept the expressions of the people at the table.

However, these people are worthy of standing on the tip of Huaguo, although the attention is focused here, but their expressions are very gentle and polite, as if they can't understand the confrontation between these three words, just an ordinary conversation.

Zhuang Yiwei retracted her gaze and put on a mask with an expression similar to everyone, as if she didn't understand Wei Zi's sarcastic accusation, and still smiled and said, "Aunt said she was laughing." These days, in addition to learning the rules, I go to visit the writers. As you know, the deadline for the Killis Prize is approaching, and I've been busy translating works since I received the invitation. My aunt is so blessed, and her life is nourishing, but I really don't have this leisure. ”

Wei Zi couldn't imagine that the gloomy little girl who was almost autistic back then had become so sharp-tongued now, and she solved her language trap in just a few words, justified herself and didn't say anything, and said in turn that she didn't do her job, but only listened to some gossip.

Wei Zi's casual expression on his face, which was originally looking at the joke, almost couldn't hang up, and the hands under the table trembled with anger. Fortunately, after many years of self-cultivation, I didn't say anything rude and make a fool of myself in public.

Chen Cunli didn't expect that Wei Zi would dare to say these words at Zhuang Yiwei's birthday banquet.

You must know that Zhuang Chen's two families have a marriage, and Zhuang Lao still values Zhuang Yiwei so much. Isn't her behavior a clear refusal to give Zhuang Lao face?

Chen Cunli clenched Wei Zi's hand under the table, and showed a kind smile to Zhuang Yiwei: "Yiwei, you have been very well-behaved since you were a child, and those of us who are elders know it. Your aunt was just worried that you had been deceived by those bastards, and she was worried about it, so she mentioned it to you briefly, and she didn't blame you. ”

Zhuang Yiwei nodded: "I know my aunt's kindness. ”

Ye Lianyi, the head of the Ye family at the table, asked with a little curiosity: "Yiwei, you participated in the Kiliss Literary Award?" It's not easy! ”

Zhuang Yiwei said: "I still have a lot to learn, all thanks to the guidance of my predecessors. ”

Ye Lianyi waved his hand: "I know their temper, if you are not a really eye-catching person, no matter what your identity is, I don't care about it." It can be seen that you have real skills. It's not easy at your age! Where is like that kid in my family, he knows how to play all day long. If you have time, you can come to my house to play, and you can take care of my boy. ”

Zhuang Yiwei hurriedly said, "Uncle Ye, don't praise me. Brother Ye is my role model. Although he loves to play, he never delays his business, and the companies he manages are well organized. I still have to learn from his ability to juggle both entertainment and work. ”

Ye Lianyi laughed, "Old Zhuang, your granddaughter is really good at talking." ”

Zhuang Qing smiled lightly.

Zhuang Yiwei toasted the people at the table one by one, and then went to the next table.

The table was full of elders, Zhuang Yiwei had been hanging her heart, and finally except for a little friction at the beginning, the rest of the family owners expressed their love for her on the bright side.

A few more tables of elders were saluted, and the last table was full of people from the younger generation, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed.

Before Zhuang Yiwei approached with the goblet, Ye Dongshen said, "Weiwei came to me, I'll have a drink with you first!" ”

Zhuang Yiwei still likes Ye Dongshen's friend very much, and she is not afraid to show this kind of liking on this occasion.

She didn't look at anyone, and walked up to Ye Dongshen, "Cheers." ”

Two glasses meet, and the burgundy liquid at the bottom of the glasses swayes.

Ye Dongshen blinked, with a little naughty and proud, and said, "I have long known that you must be a real princess." ”

Zhuang Yiwei glanced at him helplessly, then turned around, raised the wine glass and turned around a little halfway, "I hope you will give me more advice in the future." ”

The people at this table, Zhuang Yiran, Zhuang Yiyue, Lian Daoyuan, Zhong Yun and others, saw that Zhuang Yiwei was He Wei before, and there was no surprised expression on their faces, but what they thought in their hearts was difficult to say. The people at this big table were all strangely silent.

As early as when the dealer announced that Zhuang Yi Weikang had recovered and returned to China and officially reappeared, these well-informed children had already received the news, saying that they were shocked, and they were shocked at that time. Although the elders all said that Zhuang Yiwei concealed her identity in order to experience civilian life, who is not a human spirit, and she must not be tired of it? However, there is a well-known rule in their circle, and it is not easy to inquire too carefully about other people's pickled things.

Zhong Yun stood up suddenly, his eyes burning, "Weiwei, don't you respect me for a drink?" ”

Zhuang Yiwei recognized the person. Although she has only met twice, this Zhong Yun has left a deep impression on her. Of course, that wasn't a good impression.

She stood at the opposite table from afar, holding the wrist of the wine glass, "Another glass, I can't drink it, I'm the host here today, if I get drunk, it will be too rude." ”

Zhong Yun frowned and was pulled by the person next to him.

Zhong Yun glared at Wang Lianbo impatiently, but was glared back.

Joke! With such a big formation today, who doesn't know that it was Old Man Zhuang who wanted to build momentum for Zhuang Yiwei. I want to embarrass Zhuang Yiwei at this time, isn't this looking for a draw?

Besides, the goddess didn't toast him alone, so he couldn't just cheap Zhong Yun.

Zhong Yun understood the meaning of Wang Lianbo's eyes, reluctantly suppressed his anger, turned his head and said, "Then you have to remember that you owe me a glass of wine, and you will make up for it next time." ”

Zhuang Yiwei smiled and didn't say yes, nor did she say no.

This smile made Zhong Yun almost lose his soul, and was pulled by Wang Lianbo, so he sat down.

This little turmoil can be regarded as perfunctory.

Zhuang Yiwei was about to speak again, but suddenly there was a commotion.

Following the prestige, I saw Chen Cunli, who was still talking and laughing and being elegant, couldn't hide his panicked look, and hurriedly left the scene with Wei Zi.

Zhuang Yiwei looked at Zhuang Qing and found that his expression was a little dignified, explaining something to the housekeeper.

"If you're out of company, everyone should have fun."

Dropping a sentence, Zhuang Yiwei suppressed her heart palpitations for a while, and walked steadily in front of her grandfather.

"Grandfather, has something happened?" She asked in a whisper.

Zhuang Qingdao: "Your brother is back." ”(.. )
