Chapter Seventy-One: Seats
The chips are staggered, and the clothes are fragrant and the sideburns are shadowed.
In Lin Momo's imagination, the Gao family's birthday banquet should also look like this, although it is a little different from Old Man Lin's, but it should be roughly the same. It's like a drinking party broadcast in a TV series, although it is nominally a birthday party, but in fact it is a platform for many people to talk.
But when she actually came to the Gao family, she found that it was not like this.
Lin Momo was wearing the dress she was looking at before, but the necklace was not the one Mo Xi wanted to give her. That necklace doesn't match the clothes very well, and if you barely put it up, you will only feel awkward. So with the help of the makeup artist, Lin Momo was replaced with a string of pearl necklaces.
A good pearl necklace also comes at a high price. But now it's not about the price, it's about the suitability.
When Lin Momo came out completely dressed up, Mo Xi's amazing eyes looking at her made Lin Momo a little shy and a little proud.
Women are the ones who please themselves. Seeing the amazing eyes of the person she likes, she felt that her efforts to dress up were not in vain.
Holding Mo Xi's hand, Lin Momo got into the car with him. Maupat was not with them, and took another car.
This is not only because he doesn't want to disturb Mo Xi and Lin Momo, but also because the two of them have to continue to act in the scene of brotherly discord.
Wait until the car gradually drove into the villa area, and parked under the signal of the security guard. Mo Xi opened the car door, and then carefully helped Lin Momo out.
Lin Momo took Moxi's arm and walked towards the villa step by step. On the way, I also met a few familiar people who greeted Mo Xi, and Mo Xi also nodded his head. Lin Momo was just smiling on the side.
When he entered the door, Lin Momo's eyes couldn't help but widen.
This birthday banquet is not at all different from the birthday banquet of Old Man Lin that she attended before.
Mr. Lin's birthday banquet is actually very fashionable, and it can be said to be Western-style. It's like a self-service meal or something. But the Gao family's birthday banquet gives people a different feeling when they enter the door.
There is gold and red everywhere, and it looks very festive. In the center there is a large gilded Shou character. There is also a desk in front of the word Shou, and there is a super large Shou Tao on the table, and there are several smaller small Shou Taos around the Shou Tao. On the left and right sides of Shou Tao are hung blessing couplets, and statues of Antarctic immortals are placed.
As for the content of the couplet, it is also the one that has been widely circulated. "Blessing is like the long flowing water of the East China Sea, and the longevity is better than the old pine of Nanshan. ”
Lin Momo and Mo Xi were guided to the banquet.
This birthday banquet is also not like a cocktail party, with a buffet style meal, leaving a few rows of seats next to it for those who want to eat or are tired from standing can take a little rest. Instead, like a wedding banquet, large round tables are set out.
Mo Xi and Lin Momo's position is not very high, it can only be regarded as the middle. Seeing that they were led here, Mo Xi raised his eyebrows, his expression was unfathomable.
Not long after, Maupe also came. Although his position is not at this table, it is not far away. It stands to reason that they, as relatives, should be at the first few tables.
Gao family, what does this mean?
Baba called them over, but did such a trick?
Even if they don't talk about the relationship between relatives, with the strength of the Mo Group, they should sit in front, right? This is throwing the face of the Mo Group to the ground?
The people at the table could see that Mo Bo and Mo Xi didn't seem to be in a very happy mood.
Mo Bo looked at the sign with his name on it on his place, sneered, stood up and walked to Mo Xi's side, and whispered to the person next to him: "I want to sit with Mo Xi, I don't know if I can change my position?"
This position is obviously ranked according to strength. So most of the people sitting in the middle have opened a company, but the development of the company can be regarded as an average person. For them, the Mohs Group can be regarded as a golden thigh. It's too late for them to stammer.
At the same time, some people who were already seated on the field also felt that the Gao family was not doing this authentically.
When Mo Liang and Gao Min had an accident, many of them went to mourn, so they naturally watched that good show. For them, the behavior of the Gao family is really incomprehensible. How could anyone cut off relations with his grandson in the mourning hall?
Moreover, they blamed Mo Liang for killing Gao Min but vented their anger on the two brothers, which made some people really unable to see it.
But this is their housework, and they just muttered a few words in their hearts, thinking that the people of the Gao family may have brain problems and are not good friends.
When Maupat took over the Mohs Group with great difficulty, it was revitalized little by little. The people of the Gao family want to ease the relationship, but they want to take Qiao. I want to use the previous events to pinch their brothers. Mo Po and Mo Xi simply didn't come.
If you don't come back, you can't come back, and the gift of filial piety is still delivered every year.
Sure enough, this gift was not without effect. At least after witnessing what the Gao family did, some people also inexplicably felt a little more pity for Mo Bo and Mo Xi. On the contrary, the reputation of the Gao family is not very good.
And this time, many people didn't expect Mo Po and Mo Xi to come. However, someone inquired that Gao Ming sent the invitation.
"It's not good to invite people over and arrange them well. Tsk, the Gao family is really getting more and more disagreeable. ”
"That's it. They haven't had any famous characters in their family over the years, and it's easy to have a grandson, but they pushed it out. ”
"I see, it's a good thing that the two brothers didn't grow up in the high school, otherwise, it's a question of whether they can be successful. Isn't there an old saying that the children of the poor are in charge of the house early? The brothers had no parents, so they had to grow up on their own. ”
"yes, yes, these two brothers are not ordinary people now. It can be said that it is quite powerful. I don't know if the people of the Gao family regret it?"
Do you regret it? Of course I regret it.
It's not just those distant relatives of the Gao family who regret it, but Gao Ming regrets it even more!
The Gao family has always been a scholarly family, and they also uphold this kind of education. It's just that in the Gao family's generation, Gao Min, the smartest and most promising, has died.
Although Gao Ming's knowledge is okay, he is still relatively mediocre in general. In particular, his emotional intelligence can be said to be quite low. Otherwise, they would not have directly threatened to sever their relationship on Mo Liang and Gao Min's mourning hall less than seven days after their deaths.
Among them, of course, there are reasons why he and Gao Min's sister and brother have a deep relationship and are angry with the Mo family, but more often than not, his emotional intelligence is too low.
Gao's father and mother were so sad at the time that they didn't know what Gao Ming said. This becomes the default in the eyes of others.
Although they learned the news at the time, Gao's father wanted to beat Gao Ming, but under Gao's mother's obstruction, he still couldn't succeed.
Gao Ming, as the two of their most beloved sons, of course knows how to make the two old men die. He deliberately said that if they went back on their word, they would damage the reputation of the Gao family or something, and sure enough, he caught the weakness of Gao's father. After that, the eldest parent is really acquiescing.
And women's minds are always a little more delicate, so after being angry for a while, Gao's mother couldn't help but help him a little when she found out that Mo Bo had worked so hard to take over the company. Of course, only a little.
Gao Father and Gao Ming didn't know about this matter.
But soon, I saw that Mo Bo managed the Mo Group day by day, saw the Mo Group continue to grow, saw Mo Xi invest a quasi, and saw that Mo Xi had accumulated countless wealth under his name. And their high family is declining.
Gao Father, Gao Mother, and Gao Ming, finally couldn't help it!
Gao's father and mother can barely hold back, but Gao Ming can't stand it. The Gao family has still looked like that over the years, but in fact it has begun to decline. Gao Ming has no talent for business, but he can only be a small official. Compared with the prosperity of the Lin family, it can be said that the contrast is serious.
You must know that the Gao family used to be called a famous family!
So now in Gao Ming, he has tried his best to persuade Gao's father and mother, and finally decided to ease the relationship. However, in Gao Ming's heart, he actually doesn't look down on the two brothers Mo Bo and Mo Xi very much. He always felt that the Mo family owed them, and he should let them get what they wanted.
As long as they send out the slightest message of reconciliation, the two of the Mo family should come together. !
Mo Bo's eyes were slightly cold, and he sneered in his heart. Seeing such a seating arrangement, he already knew what the Gao family was thinking. Seeing the faint sympathy of the people around him and the disapproval of the Gao family, Mo Xi finally understood what Mo Bo had done before.
The Gao family was dismissive of them before, but Mo Bo would still give gifts on the birthday of Gao's father and mother every year. Mo Xi used to feel resentful, he felt that he would rather throw this money into the water than give it to the family. But Maupe told him that he would find out later.
Looking at the eyes of the people around him now, Mo Xi realized.
Is this the intention of the eldest brother?
In the eyes of everyone, the two brothers of the Mo family can be said to be benevolent and righteous to the people of the Gao family. But the people of the Gao family are not very good. One side is weak and reasonable, and the other side is strong and unreasonable. People are strong and compassionate. Even if Mo Po and Mo Xi are not weak, in the eyes of others, they are weak in terms of their relatives.
Then, once the Gao family wants to make any embarrassing requests, or even not embarrassing requests, as long as Mo Bo and Mo Xi are embarrassed, they will directly refuse. No one will come and talk to them.
Fame is really useless when you say it's useless, but if you say it's useful, it's really useful!
When Mo Po and Mo Xi do this, many people will also think that they are good people, and then they may be considered in some cooperation, or they will get more benefits because of this.
As long as one of them can be successful, then the gift money sent out will be earned back a hundredfold and a thousand times.
Moreover, even if they ruthlessly rejected the people of the Gao family, no one would make irresponsible remarks. How can the words of a few people resist the unanimous opinion of everyone.
Looking at Mo Bo's calm expression, Mo Xi suddenly seemed to have learned something again.
