CHAPTER XXV

"It's a coincidence today, it's really a rare excitement!" Rong Ziyi's smile had a hint of mockery: "Since everyone is so together, let's have a reunion dinner together." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info waiter! He instructed, "Arrange a larger box for us." ”

Without waiting for everyone to express their opinions, he turned to Ryoko Fukada and said, "Ryoko should also come with us." ”

Ryoko Fukada's attention was all focused on the word "reunion", and before she noticed the strange atmosphere of the scene, she nodded her head in agreement.

Yang Renjie naturally greeted Ryoko Fukada very respectfully. Although he had some doubts in his heart about whether it was appropriate for Rong Ziyi to invite Fukada to eat this meal, he still showed a certain degree of enthusiasm to welcome. Ryoko Fukada said with a smile: "Since today is a family banquet, Mr. Yang should not be too polite." Thanks for the invitation, sorry for the trouble. ”

Although Ryoko Fukada wears a Western-style long skirt suit that is currently popular among rich ladies in Shanghai's upper class, it is easy to tell from her saluting movements and slightly stiff pronunciation that she is Japanese.

Rong Ziyi introduced to everyone: "This is Miss Ryoko Fukada. When I was studying in Tokyo, I was taken care of by her father. He deliberately did not say Ryoko Fukada's position, because then it would inevitably cause unnecessary speculation and disgust.

The waiter arranged their seats, and everyone sat down again. There doesn't seem to be much to talk about, but because the food is being served, it looks like it's lively. Although most people don't know what to say, the good thing is that everyone eats it. If you are hungry, eat two more bites, and if you can't eat, you can barely cope with a few chopsticks, and you can also comment on the taste and the quality of the practice.

Ryoko Fukada finally understood the respective identities of this group of people, and lamented the complicated kinship of the Chinese-style family, but she also keenly saw the unnatural expressions of everyone present.

She asked Rong Ziyi in a low voice: "Since they are all close relatives and friends, why is there no joyful atmosphere for relatives and friends to gather?" ”

Rong Ziyi sneered and said, "Ryoko still doesn't understand the Chinese. The Chinese are more hypocritical than you think. There is a saying called 'discord between the face and the heart,' which refers to the current situation. He didn't lower his voice, and it was impossible for everyone to pretend they couldn't hear.

Among them, the most embarrassed is Wu Yuzhen. Since Rong Ziyi was slapped by her last time and moved away from the Rong Mansion, the two have not met again. In this meeting, Rong Ziyi still did not show the slightest repentance, and she had an indifferent attitude from beginning to end, which made her unhappy. Hearing this almost provocative speech now, Wu Yuzhen only felt that her breath was blocked in her chest, and she was extremely depressed, and she couldn't spit it out if she couldn't go down. She slapped her chopsticks on the table with a "snap", and looked at Rong Ziyi's eyes with a bit of sternness and anger.

Mrs. Yang hurriedly played a round: "Ziyi drank a little too much today. That's it, Zizhong, you send your eldest brother home first. ”

Zizhong looked at Ziyi, obviously asking if he wanted to go home. Rong Ziyi shook his head. He casually raised a wine glass in front of him, and no matter what kind of wine it contained, he didn't look at it, and poured it into his stomach as soon as he raised his hand. He waved his hand and said quite domineeringly: "Finally, everyone has made it up." Today, if you don't make it clear to face, no one will want to leave! ”

He staggered to his feet, walked to Wu Yuzhen's side, bowed deeply, and said, "First of all, Mrs. Rong, I have to thank you for taking care of you for so many years. It should be said that you have fully fulfilled the responsibilities of a stepmother. You have never deducted me and Ah Zhong, and you can even be said to be very generous. We take care of every aspect of our daily life. In Shanghai, you have earned a reputation as a loving mother and a good wife. So, I want to ask you, ......" Rong Ziyi seemed to be a little unsteady on his feet, he held the back of Wu Yuzhen's seat, hooked the corners of his mouth, and showed a polite but mocking smile: "I want to ask you, after my father dies, do you plan to continue to play the role of a loving mother and return to me the property that should belong to me and Ah Zhong?" ”

"Big brother!" Rong Zixiao stood up with a "Teng": "You really drank too much!" Be careful, don't overdo it! ”

"Excessive? Am I excessive? Ha, that's ridiculous! Rong Ziyi really smiled, but his smile was full of pain: "I went to visit my grandfather a few days ago. Unfortunately, none of you were home that day. You didn't see it, my grandfather didn't recognize me, but he turned to me and called my mother's name one after another. In his heart, his daughter-in-law, the real Mrs. Rong, was only my mother. And your mother ......" Rong Ziyi stretched out a hand to Wu Yuzhen: "Grandfather will never recognize her." I think even if he is not confused, in his mind, she is still the little secretary of the young climbing high branches! ”

As Rong Ziyi's words landed, the hypocritical and friendly atmosphere in the room that everyone was still trying their best to maintain was instantly torn to pieces by him. Wu Yuzhen's face turned pale. Zifan held her mother's arm, and could feel her trembling uncontrollably.

"Am I excessive?" Rong Ziyi leaned over to Wu Yuzhen's ear, and the wine in his mouth hit her face: "You think I'm young and I don't remember anything?" Tell you, I remember them all! I remember how you my mother! He straightened up, looked away from Wu Yuzhen's face, stared at a non-existent spot in the air, seemed to penetrate time and space, and saw the scene of the year: "That day, you ran out of her room and happened to be bumped into by me. You look hasty and stumble, as if someone is chasing you behind you. I remember you so panicked. After you left, my mother cried alone in her room for a long time. She's been sick for a long time, and she's already weak, but you don't know what nonsense you said to her to make her so sad! I asked her, but she just stroked my hair and didn't say a word. It was from this day that she became so sick that she could no longer get out of bed. It didn't take long for her to ...... She's still so young! ”

Rong Ziyi's face was flushed with an abnormal flush. He paused, adjusted his breathing, seemed to try to stabilize his agitation, and continued: "And Father, I can't wait, I married you in the door before my mother passed away a year! He turned to Wu Yuzhen and said aggressively: "Didn't I hear that you are my mother's good friend?" I've also heard that it was my mother who introduced you to the Rong family, right, Mrs. Rong? My mother must not have imagined that she would make a decision to lure the wolf into the house! ”
