In a hurry, the Qiao family didn't have time to invite high-rollers from all walks of life.

After discussing with Luo Yu, he planned to keep everything simple this year, and in terms of guests, only relatives who were closer to the Qiao family were invited.

"Yu'er, my mother can't help you, but don't worry, the family will definitely hold a lively birthday dinner for you in the coming year, and invite guests from all walks of life. ”

Lin Huixin blamed herself very much, in the eyes of the wife of a wealthy family, if she didn't have a hundred and eighty tables on her birthday, she would feel cold.

In fact, this is extravagant enough and lively enough.

You must know that Luo Yu was born with a cold temperament, since he was a child, he didn't have any friends, and when he had a birthday in previous years, his mother Luo Meng celebrated him alone.

"Mom, you actually booked the Hilton Hotel, and my company's annual meeting was not so extravagant. ”

Qiao Xiangxue also felt extravagant, and she was always unhappy, because part of it was spent on her money.

"Brother-in-law, guess what gift they will give you tonight?"

Qiao Yumeng is more noisy, she has never made money, she doesn't know how hard it is to make money, among the nearly one million expenses tonight, seventy percent of it is her who comes out, and now she has mysteriously prepared a mysterious gift for Luo Yu, selling Guanzi.

"It can't be a cat, right?"

Luo Yu joked.

"Keep it a secret first, and surprise you at night. Qiao Yumeng was proud, as if she expected that the gift would be liked by her brother-in-law.

......

In the evening, the family sat in a Rolls-Royce and headed to the Hilton Hotel.

The relatives appeared early, but when they arrived at the hotel, they saw that only a few dozen people came, Qiao Tianbo's face was not good-looking, and Lin Huixin was even more annoyed.

She obviously invited more than 100 relatives and friends, but less than half of them were present, and half of them were still juniors in the family.

These guys are really unbelievable.

The assets of the Qiao family were frozen by the court, and the specific reason has always been a mystery to the outside world, so there are different opinions.

These people must think that there is a big loophole in the Qiao family's economy, and there is no longer the glory of the past.

There is another reason, that is, after the assets were frozen, her husband raised money everywhere in order to maintain the family's expenses, and now some relatives who have a little property are afraid that her husband will mention borrowing money again at tonight's birthday party, so they hide away.

Even the people present brought gifts that were quite casual and excessively thin.

"Aunt, I wish you happiness like the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan. ”

There are also people who don't even know who is celebrating their birthday, and they make a fuss, and they can see that they don't take it seriously at all.

"Okay, okay, festive day, don't worry too much, hurry up and greet the guests. ”

Qiao Tianbo knew this matter, and he was also disgraced at the moment, and there was no better way than to pretend to be confused.

Lin Huixin took a deep breath, and then she held back her anger.

She gathered everyone together first, and said with a kind smile: "Everyone, let me introduce you, this is Xiangxue's new husband, his name is Luo Yu." ”

Because the old man arranged for Qiao Xiangxue to marry Luo Yu, it was impenetrable, even among the clansmen of the Qiao family, there are still many people who don't know about it.

And so, a funny scene appeared.

"What? Cousin Xiangxue is actually married?"

A dignified-looking young man who came in a white suit and was a little sassy looked shocked.

This person's name is Li Chen, Qiao Xiangxue's distant cousin, and his family does Haikou trading business and has assets of hundreds of millions.

He was dressed quite fancy tonight, his hair was waxed, and there was a flower pinned to his chest in a white suit.

But those who know Li Chen well know that this guy loves to be in the limelight, and he wants to shine wherever he goes.

"Xiangxue is married, such a big matter, why didn't the Zong family inform us, did they treat us as outsiders. ”

A middle-aged man in a Mao suit, who looked like a scholar with a displeased face.

This person's name is Qiao Sheng, who runs a jade jewelry business, and on the Myanmar side, he has his own shares in the mine, and his family property is conservatively estimated to be no less than one billion.

Going back three generations, Qiao Sheng's ancestors are also the descendants of the Qiao family, even now, Qiao Sheng regards himself as the Qiao family, and his age is five years older than Qiao Yexu.

In the past, when the old man was alive, he didn't dare to put on a score in front of the Zong family, but now that the old man is deceased, the Qiao family has suffered a major accident, and the old guy is a little pretending, and he is questioning Qiao Tianbo and Lin Huixin in the tone of an elder.

"Cousin, don't blame, this matter was arranged by my father before his death, and we can't help ourselves. ”

Qiao Tianbo was very unhappy, but he borrowed millions from Qiao Sheng a while ago, and now he can only swallow his anger.

A group of elders were curious about who the eldest lady of the family married to, and after Lin Huixin's introduction, they were all looking at Luo Yu carefully, but they were still restrained.

Those juniors, especially the group of hairy children who are still in school, are more noisy.

As soon as they heard that the pearl of the family was married, they immediately began to look at Luo Yu with all kinds of strange eyes.

"His name is Luo Yu, why haven't I heard of a family called this before. "Someone was thoughtful.

"Maybe the son of a big man in officialdom. ”

"Hey, where is your father? Can you reveal that my dad is the director of the Jianghuai Municipal Government Office, and he may know your dad. ”

A girl wearing a pink puffy skirt and a brand all over her body, smiling and inquiring, looks like she wants to get a personal connection for her father at home.

"It doesn't have to be the second generation of officials, but it may also be talents in scientific research and finance. ”

"Which university did you graduate from, and what are your proud experiences in the past, you might as well share with us, in Xia Jiang Ye, I have only been mixed in the University of Chicago for a few years, and I have been lucky enough to get two doctoral titles, and I am about to intern in a multinational pharmaceutical company recently, please take care of me. ”

A handsome returnee who had just received a double Ph.D. from the University of Chicago reached out in a friendly way to get to know him.

These people are not ordinary, the most inferior, and there are tens of millions of people in the family.

They surrounded Luo Yu, as if they were checking the household registration, you said a word to me, but inside and outside the words, they were basically inseparable from Luo Yu's family background, education, and background.

"Huh, why don't you speak?" the girl in the pink tutu was suspicious.

"The man is very handsome, but unfortunately he is a mute. ”

Luo Yu didn't respond for a long time, so a little girl began to be naughty, ridiculing Luo Yu for being dumb and forcing him to speak up.

Qiao Xiangxue was holding her forehead beside her, looking quite helpless.

This is exactly what she worries about the most and feels the most embarrassing.

She knew that when she got together, the top priority of those guys was to care about Luo Yu.

But in these aspects, someone has no mastery.

Tonight, just a handful of relatives and friends came, and they talked about the topic in minutes, she couldn't imagine how much saliva someone would be drowned if she invited guests according to the pomp and circumstance of the Qiao family's heyday.

However, she thought that Luo Yu would be embarrassed, that he would not be able to get off the stage, and that he would not exist.

The fame and fortune that these little people are chasing, in Luo Yu's eyes, are like children playing at home, and they are not worth mentioning.

"My Yu'er is just an ordinary person, don't make fun of him, come, let's all take a seat. ”

Lin Huixin responded to everyone's questions with a smile, her mother-in-law didn't care about these very much, or rather, she just cared before, now that the younger couple are married, she only hopes that the younger couple can live a good life, and nothing else matters.

But others don't think so.

Her honest answer of "ordinary people" immediately made the eager eyes of the surrounding relatives and friends look at Luo Yu, and the temperature dropped by dozens of degrees.

"It's just an ordinary boy. Some elders secretly shook their heads and laughed.

"Is the old man crazy that he would marry the pearl of the family to a mediocre person. Li Chen turned around to find a seat and complained in a low voice, showing disdain.

"It seems that the Zong family really only has a shell left, how many princes in the past stepped through the threshold and couldn't ask for the eldest lady, and they actually promised to marry a hairy boy at the price of cabbage, the family is unfortunate!"

After Qiao Sheng sat down, his eyes narrowed, he was disappointed in the Zong family, and he had already made up his mind, after that, Qiao Ye would ask him to borrow money again, and he would definitely have to excuse himself, otherwise one day the Qiao family's empty shell would be broken, and he couldn't pay it back, who would he cry to?

Most of the relatives and friends also think the same way, and they don't say it, but they feel very sorry for coming tonight.

There are also people who are thinking about how to shirk if Qiao Ye opens his mouth to borrow money later.

"Sister, aren't you, even if something goes wrong in the family business, with your sister's conditions, you can't be wronged to a useless man, right? I know the son of the deputy mayor of Jianghuai City, that Oba has always admired you very much, if necessary, I can introduce you two. ”

The girl in the puffy skirt sneaked over, hugged Qiao Xiangxue's arm, and whispered to the ear.

"Don't make a fuss. Qiao Xiangxue gently broke free from her, glanced at her coldly, and walked away.

Just as the banquet was about to begin, a woman with a gentle face wearing an autumn and winter coat came in with a gift box.

She didn't carry a bag, and she didn't wear any jewelry on her body, which was very different from the noble ladies and Mrs. Kuo in the seats around her, and she looked at her with a worried look when she came in.

"Who are you looking for, lady?"

Lin Huixin came to greet her, and in her impression, she had never invited such a woman.

"I'm looking for my son. ”

As soon as the words fell, a figure rushed up from behind her.

"Mom!"

Luo Yu shouted.

said that it would not come, but it still came.

In the past 20 years, every birthday of my mother has been celebrated by my mother, no matter how busy I was with work before, I never missed the appointment.

After Yi Luo Yu woke up, he was slightly excited at the moment.

Seeing his son, Luo Meng was also excited, and then sneered: "Stinky boy, I haven't seen you for more than a month, why do you seem to have changed as a different person, come, take this one, happy birthday!"

My own child, I haven't seen him for a while, and he is a little rusty, and he is still so dignified, but he feels colder and more erratic than before.

With such a gap, Luo Meng couldn't help but feel distressed again, she thought that the child was not doing well on her mother's side, and she had a sad face all day long, and she became like this.

Lin Huixin was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, ran over and took her hand excitedly, "It turned out to be Yu'er's mother, it's great that you can come, please come in and sit." ”

Lin Huixin's reaction made Luo Meng a little at a loss.

However, with Luo Meng's experience, she immediately realized that this was Madame, and she greeted with an unnatural face: "Hello Mrs. Qiao, I am Luo Yu's mother, I ...... I happened to be passing by, so I brought something for the child by the way, and I left after putting my things down. ”

Saying that, she put the birthday gift she brought to Luo Yu on the table, and was about to turn around and leave.

However, as soon as he turned around, his wrist was grabbed, and when he looked back, it turned out to be his son.
