Chapter 78: The Betrothal Banquet (I)

At night, the city is draped in the hustle and bustle of the dark night, and the colorful enchanted coat shimmers with neon faint dazzling brilliance. The air is fresh but alluring, as if something lurks in the dark and peeps in the dark, and if you are not careful, some terrible monster will be released.

Gu Yuanxiang's family walked through the noisy city and drove into the empty and quiet two-lane asphalt road with pines and cypresses. It seems that there are two worlds here and the outside world, and the imposing gate seems to be a nodule with magical powers. The traffic and hustle and bustle outside the barrier are completely blocked here, and the difference between here and outside is life.

Continuing to drive in, it can be seen from the cars coming and going that this place is not as quiet and unmanned as it seems, and the noisy and lively sound gradually became clear, and Gu Yuanxiang's family also arrived at their destination.

As soon as the Gu family's car stopped, Gu Yuanxiang saw a man about fifty years old, hugging his father with a smile on his face, "Old Gu, let's go in, you are my honored guest!" This is Mrs. and your pair of children, what a blessing, the children are capable and well-behaved at a glance! ”

Gu Yuanxiang saw him call his father Lao Gu with a greasy face, and felt that the picture was too funny, her father was a handsome guy, and he thought that he had been obsessed with him for a long time. However, irregular rest and unhealthy diet made him get rich quickly for a period of time, and what was more rapid than his fortune was Gu Yuanxiang's reaction speed. She couldn't stand her father being a fat man, if he ruined himself. If you don't pay attention to gender, you can be sent to the hospital to give birth to the body type, standing with your mother is definitely an old cow gnawing on tender grass, and it can be seen that the two people are different in generation. Gu Yuanxiang pressured his father to go to the gym to exercise, went for a morning jog in the community every morning, and ate at home mainly light, not allowed to eat greasy meat.

Gu's father has not scolded or even said a heavy word for so many years, and he has not been impatient to be so careless by his daughter, he has absolutely ordered and forbidden, and his attitude is very correct. If his son dared to point fingers at Lao Tzu like this, he would have thrown it aside. In this way, under Gu Yuanxiang's brutal suppression, the meat that had just emerged was successfully scared back, and then he made a list of life rest schedules for his father, requiring at least 90% to be completed every day. Gu Yuanxiang is extremely glad that the timely treatment is in place, and now their family of four is more compatible when they go out, they are simply four handsome guys and beautiful brothers and sisters.

Gu Yuanxiang was stunned after seeing the bald general's belly coming, she resisted the urge to rub her eyes, she seemed to know this man! From his unbearable appearance, you can vaguely see a little familiarity in his facial features, isn't he Liang Duo's father! By the way, Dad said that his new partner's surname is Liang, is his daughter's engagement Liang Yun? She is the same age as Ziyi's brother, and she is not in her twenties this year, so she is engaged so early? Haven't you graduated from college yet?

Gu Yuanxiang had an active but sweet smile in her heart, she remembered Liang Duo she saw in the middle of the wine some time ago, did she have to do with the woman in front of her who had changed so much?

Standing next to Liang Duo's father was a woman with heavy makeup and towering clouds, about forty years old, and the temperament exuded by the whole person made Gu Yuanxiang feel uncomfortable, too aggressive and too shrewd. Gu Yuanxiang felt that this woman was not Liang Duo's biological mother, she had seen Liang Yun and Liang Duo, the two looked very similar but not very similar to her father, presumably she should look like her mother. This daughter has no resemblance to them, and her classmates have never heard Liang Duo talk about her mother for several years, and she didn't see her mother appear at her birthday party that time.

"I have long heard my old Liang say that you husband and wife are well-maintained, and they haven't changed for so many years, and I thought he was exaggerating before. Seeing you today can be regarded as clearing up the grievances of our family Lao Liang, it is really young and unbelievable, we are really like two generations next to you! Looking at the two children with a smile, "The two children look good, you are a family at first glance, and others say that you are brothers, sisters and brothers." ”

"You are too polite, the children are so old, where are they still young, compared with their tender children who come out of the water, your skin is old!" Gu's mother said modestly, her eyes smiled into a half-moon shape, women don't like to hear praise for their youthful appearance, even if they know that it is an exaggeration, they can't help but feel joy in their hearts, what she said is not too exaggerated, "Mrs. Liang is now living a happy life and has both children and daughters, and Mr. Liang is obedient to you, and his life is so comfortable, he looks young from the inside out." ”

Gu Yuanxiang didn't know if Gu's mother still knew, both of them remarried, and Mrs. Liang's maiden family had some background. After the two got married, Mr. Liang was obedient to her, and she also helped him reach a higher level in his career, otherwise Gu's father would not have found him. Gu's father has already worked hard to build a huge family business over the years, even if he doesn't use his family connections, he relies on his social circle to get projects in the name of the fourth child of the Gu family, and he doesn't know how many times easier than others. When he first went to the sea to do business, he was short of funds, although the old man did not make it difficult to make it difficult, but he also saved the mind that he would retreat, and he could not get a good investment project at all. Unexpectedly, he unintentionally planted willows and willows, and the land he won at a very low price turned out to be near the entrance of the new subway station, which was also his first pot of gold. With the start-up capital, the active development of the industry, the catering service industry in many places to carry out chain operations, and now the company is to build the catering service as the main body, the real estate industry, the cultural industry, the construction industry are involved in the business kingdom. This cooperation is the renovation project of the overall sewer in the old city, Gu Tongran's company did not take over this project, and found Liang Kequ, who has experience in this area, the two did not have much friendship before this, and he also relied on the support of his wife and mother's family to enter the eyes of Gu's father in the past few years. This time, he took the whole family to add glory to his daughter's engagement banquet so actively, the background of the Gu family is unknown to everyone in this circle, Liang Kequ also knows that this project is still not available to him now, both of them have intentions, and they are naturally very enthusiastic.

After a few words from the two families, the atmosphere was very harmonious, and Gu Yuanxiang and Gu Yuanfeng obediently followed behind their parents.

"Xiaoyun, come to meet your Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu." After Gu Yuanxiang's family entered the banquet hall, Liang Yun went to the Gu family's parents to salute.

"It's really a Peugeot girl, this is an engagement gift from your aunt." Gu's mother took out a delicate velvet box from her clutch.

Gu Yuanxiang stood aside and looked at this girl, she was completely different from what she remembered. In her memory, she was a little arrogant but simple and straightforward, she now looks like one meter six or five, stepping on ten centimeter shoes, her legs are thin and long. The facial features are delicate melon seed face, the peach blossom eyes and mouth are a little thin, but the lips are bright, the long flaxen-colored curly hair naturally hangs down, and although it is winter, he is still wearing a small purple dress. Gu Yuanxiang had to sigh that women are really cold-resistant creatures, but she seems to be an accident, on such a cold day, she will never wear any beautiful clothes that even her knees are exposed! She'd rather wrap herself in a dumpling, as long as she doesn't get cold!

Liang Yun obviously didn't recognize Gu Yuanxiang, it has been seven or eight years since they last met, and the little glutinous rice dumpling has become a Tingting girl who is now in full bloom. For Liang Yun, it was just a streamer of her dusty past, she didn't know that girl was the pearl of the Gu family, and she didn't even know Kan Ziyi's identity, and it was rumored in the school that his family situation was not good. In that water-like youth, Kan Zi was just a silly and jerky love in the ignorant and simple years, and the girl who was attached to it had no vague impression.

"This is the little sister, it's smaller than Xiao Duo, it's so beautiful!" Liang Yun noticed the beautiful girl on the side, always smiling. Although she stood aside and didn't squeak, she didn't seem to have a sense of existence, but Liang Yun saw her at first sight, she was like a piece of beautiful jade, her temperament was gentle, but she never let people ignore it, she was surprised how such a young child developed her bearing. Liang Yun glanced at the young man beside his father on the other side of the banquet hall, the brother and sister really had the same good temperament, but he seemed to be a little familiar.

Gu Yuanxiang doesn't know what she thinks now, if she knows, she will definitely complain, she has been like this since she was a child, but at that time, others thought it was cute, and she regarded such a beautiful temperament as a little bun, and she liked to pinch it when she had nothing to do, and at that time, she hoped that she could be domineering! Her brother and Liang Yun were in the same school, but at that time, his brother was still a little Zhengtai in front of Kan Ziyi, a handsome guy, and the little brother couldn't attract her attention at all, and it was already surprising to feel familiar, after all, so many years have passed.

Gu Yuanxiang obediently listened to their greetings, as a host, you can't always accompany only one person, although not all people need the host to go up to greet them, but today's Liang family feast guests, there are really a lot of guests, and it didn't take long for Mrs. Liang to say goodbye to the other guests.

There was a long food table in the banquet hall, which was full of all kinds of delicacies, Gu Yuanxiang had already eaten at home before she came, thinking that the last time she came to her house, although it was not this place, it was also a buffet. Why didn't she see Liang Duo, Gu Yuanxiang turned around and found that it was very strange, her sister was engaged, not only was she not around, but she didn't even see anyone.

Gu Yuanxiang turned to the beverage area and got a cup of coffee, as if she heard a familiar voice, she looked around. Qin Ting! Gu Yuanxiang saw that she was holding food not far away, and before she got closer, she saw a man holding a dinner plate and bowing his head to her and saying something, Qin Ting's eyes were shining, she should be a handsome guy, Gu Yuanxiang thought to himself. The handsome guy seemed to feel that someone was looking at him, and he looked up just in time to meet Gu Yuanxiang's gaze, He Zhihui!
