Chapter 398: The Farmer and the Snake
Coming out of the study, the people of the Cai family looked at Mei Lan and Cai Ganlin's faces, and then saw that Cai Qingmao did not come out with them, and guessed that this conversation must be unpleasant.
Zhao Jian knew that the conversation must be related to him, and judging from the current situation, it would definitely not be the result that he Zhao Jian wanted, so after thinking about it, Zhao Jian spoke.
"Mei Lan, don't be reluctant if you want to do the company's affairs, don't affect the affection of your relatives because of this, I, Zhao Jian, have not yet reached the day when the mountains and rivers are exhausted."
Mei Lan was a little surprised when she heard this, this Zhao Jian was very different from the eagerness when she entered the door just now, could it be that someone said something to him just now?
In fact, speaking of which, Mei Lan doesn't know much about these high-ranking cadres, no matter how down, there is still a little bit of arrogance in them, just like Zhao Jian said, he has not reached the point of exhaustion, because the Zhao family, the Cai family and the Ye family have not yet fallen.
The Ye family also has people who do business, but emotionally speaking, the relationship between Zhao Jian and the Cai family is definitely closer, and besides, Mei Lan is younger, and she must be much easier to talk to than the old foxes of the Ye family, of course, the most important thing is that Mei Lan is not short of money, and she can come up with this acquisition fund very lightly.
But now that Mei Lan is unwilling, and even Cai Qingmao and Cai Qingruo's face has been rolled, then there is no need for Zhao Jian to beg for humiliation.
Besides, he doesn't want to be too stiff with Cai Ganlin, Cai Ganlin is going up now, he Zhao Jian is a businessman, and he will definitely be useful when Cai Ganlin is used, and it will be easy to get along after the brotherhood is left.
"Okay, let the lawyer talk to Brother Jian another day, if you can talk about it, you can talk about it, and if you can't talk about it, you have to be sorry." Mei Lan didn't say anything to death.
"Done." Zhao Jian nodded.
"Okay, Xiao Er, it's rare for you to come back and play a few rounds of mahjong with grandma." Cai Yan came out to play a round.
As soon as Mei Lan heard that they were going to play mahjong, she went upstairs with Fang Zhe.
"Mom, did you say I did something wrong?"
Mei Lan has been a little confused recently, not only Zhao Jian, but also the Mei family, she doesn't know what to do to Deng Hongying, seeing her working so hard, Mei Lan still feels a little sorry for her, but she can't let Mei Lan let go of her previous grievances to help them, because there are two people in the Mei family Mei Lan will never forgive, one is Wang Ximei and one Mei Ju.
Since she became pregnant, Mei Lan's heart has become sensitive, not only Cai Ganlin takes her as a treasure, Fang Zhe also comes to see her twice in three days, sending her all kinds of fresh vegetables and supplements, Mei Lan enjoys the love of her husband and mother-in-law while remembering the situation when Deng Shuiying was pregnant with her.
An unmarried woman who is pregnant not only has to face being abandoned by her childhood sweetheart, but also has to endure all kinds of humiliation from the man's elders.
But no matter what, Deng Shuiying gave birth to the child, and she has suffered for several years for this child, so Mei Lan chose to forgive her and forgive the rest of the Deng family.
But only one Deng Hongying made Mei Lan embarrassed, and Mei Lan felt unhappy regardless of it.
"Kid, you're right. On your adoptive mother's side, haven't you already bought her a house to settle in? Also, the younger brother of the Mei family, you also sent him abroad, and the restaurant opened by your adoptive father was also your expense, and your biological mother has not treated them badly over the years, they have always owed you everything, and you have done well enough. And Zhao Jian is too, you have already helped him once, but he has caused harm to you again, why do you want to help someone who has hurt you again and again? Isn't this the typical farmer and snake? Would you like to be the farmer who gets bitten all the time? ”
"I, I, isn't that what it is? Thank you Mom. I'm just afraid that you will be difficult to be, and I'm afraid that my uncle and aunt will use family affection to force you and Ganlin. ”
Fang Zhe heard this, touched Mei Lan's head, and said: "What a stupid child, you don't always think about this and that, it's nothing for people to be appropriately selfish sometimes, you can do what you think is happy, I hope you marry Gan Lin because he can bring you happiness, not endless troubles." ”
"Thank you, Mom."
After talking to Fang Zhe, Mei Lan's mood was much better.
After dinner at Cai's house, Mei Lan and Cai Ganlin returned to their house, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw a few small ones rushing over.
"Second sister, you and your second brother-in-law are generous, I took a red envelope of 1,000 yuan when you got married, but guess how much red envelope we took today?" Peng Peng and Mei Lan have been together for the longest time, and they talk the most casually.
"What words? Did you know that the second sister was good? Mei Lan twisted Peng Peng's ears.
"Second sister, second sister, I just took two red envelopes." Hu Hu turned out the red envelopes on the side, one was ten yuan and the other was one hundred.
"How many times have I told you, two red envelopes are a lot, when did this kid learn to be so obsessed with money?" Wang Sisi on the side was embarrassed.
"What? When my second sister got married, I took a lot of red envelopes. Hoof replied with a pout.
"What's wrong today?" Mei Lan looked at Peng Peng and asked, children are easy to tell the truth.
Sure enough, Peng Peng pouted and said: "The eldest brother-in-law is stingy, when he came to pick up the eldest sister, he brought a stack of red envelopes of ten yuan, saying that it was perfect, I grabbed two, the younger sister grabbed one, and when I went to the new house of the eldest brother-in-law's house, the mother of the eldest brother-in-law gave us a red envelope for a few small ones." ”
"As far as you know, little broken boy, I don't think you are so attentive to studying?" Deng Jianwen glared at Peng Peng.
"Alright, you little ones go over there and play." Deng Jianwu spoke.
Mei Lan sat down and asked how today's wedding banquet went.
It turned out that today's wedding banquet was only held for ten tables, most of which were friends and colleagues of the man's business, and the man had held a wedding banquet because he had been married in his hometown, so he did not invite relatives and friends from his hometown to come over this time.
But Meizhu is different, Meizhu is the first marriage, and he doesn't plan to go back to his hometown to do wine, he must invite relatives and friends at home to come to this trip, but Meizhu's relatives and friends here are all countrymen, and this countryman sits among Wang Chao's friends and colleagues, the gap is obvious, not only the man feels that he has lost face, but even Meizhu feels that his face is dull, and complains that Deng Hongying should not invite people from his hometown.
"I don't think Meizhu will have a good time in the future, and her mother-in-law is not worry-free at first glance." Wang Sisi shook his head and said.
"I've heard that Wang Chao's father used to be the director of the Finance Bureau, and he was an official's wife, of course it's different." Yang Yu said.
"So what? Isn't it petty? Zhou Guizhi pursed his lips.
"It's not just stingy, it's shrewd at first glance, or how to say that Meizhu will have a hard time in the future." Wang Sisi said.
"The two don't live together, it shouldn't be a big deal." Deng Jianwu said.
Even if he is not worried, can he be more worry-free than his mother-in-law?
Today's Wang Jian's wife gave birth to a son, and Yang Hongmei and Wang Limin took it, not only that, but the old couple also had to pay for living expenses, Yang Hongmei ran to Deng Jianwu's house to cry with Wang Sisi in three days, and sometimes she couldn't get the money to take some meat or fish from the refrigerator or something.
This is not enough, knowing that the benefits of Deng Jianwu's company are good, Wang Limin and his wife want to put Wang Jian in Deng Jianwu's company, Deng Jianwu pushed it several times, but the two of them have this tenacity, like kraft candy, and when they see Deng Jianwu, they talk to Deng Jianwu once.
"By the way, Lan Lan, your aunt said that tomorrow's homecoming banquet is scheduled for her own hotel, so you might as well go there." Deng Shuiying said.
Mei Lan frowned when she heard this, and was about to refuse, but after thinking about it, she thought about it and said, "That's it, I'll book two tables of banquets at the Beijing Hotel tomorrow, and I just want to invite those relatives of the Mei family, so I won't be in my uncle's small restaurant." ”
Although Mei Lan doesn't look down on Mei Zhu's selfishness, Mei Zhu's personality is much better than Mei Ju, after all, the two have been sisters for 20 years, Mei Lan is a relatively protective person, I heard that her relatives have been snubbed, she naturally wants to get this one back.
"You, you, you're a child." Although Cai Ganlin did not agree with Mei Lan's behavior, he did not oppose it, as long as it did not involve any major issues of principle, as long as Mei Lan was happy, he would generally not care deeply.
After Mei Lan finished speaking, she really called Deng Hongying, Deng Hongying was naturally happy when she knew, what was there to be unhappy about having Mei Lan help them earn face?
At noon the next day, as soon as Mei Lan and his party arrived at the door of the hotel, they saw Gu Rusong standing at the door of the hotel and seemed to be waiting for someone.
Gu Rusong was also shocked when he saw Mei Lan and his party, especially when he saw Deng Shuiying, Deng Shuiying in front of him was like Deng Shuiying half a year ago, thinking that after seeing Deng Shuiying half a year ago, he woke up from his sleep several nights, and shed a few tears of sympathy more than once.
Later, he also heard the news that Deng Shuiying came back to life, but when he knew the news, Deng Shuiying had already returned to Hong Kong, and he wanted to go to see her, but it was really inconvenient because of his identity.
In addition, during that time, he had been struggling to deal with the sequelae brought about by the exposure of Mei Lan's life experience, how could he dare to move lightly during such a sensitive period?
In the end, it was his father-in-law who personally came forward to calm the matter for him and warn him.
For this reason, he didn't even dare to appear at Mei Lan's wedding, and he didn't dare to look for Mei Lan in the past half a year, but who knew that he met here.
After Gu Rusong was stunned, there was obvious surprise in his eyes, but after seeing Sun Dawei beside Deng Shuiying, he quickly turned his gaze to Mei Lan.
Today's Mei Lan pulled her hair up, without makeup, the skin on her face was pink and tender, and she looked very well taken care of.
Looking at Cai Ganlin standing next to him, holding Mei Lan with one hand and Mei Lan's shoulder with the other, Mei Lan was wearing a loose pink cashmere coat, black wide-legged pants, flat snow boots, and walking cautiously, the smart Gu Rusong guessed that Mei Lan should be pregnant. R1152
