214 My Own
I didn't pay attention to other people's words anymore and concentrated on playing with my children.
In fact, my current actions fall in the eyes of uninformed people, and they will really think that I am trying to curry favor with Hua Yuanshu on his children, and I have heard more similar words in the next few days. That's what everyone really thinks, and it's rare that I'm not angry.
However, someone got angry.
Tomorrow is the official engagement ceremony, and the guests who should have arrived are almost all here, and in the banquet hall in the evening, it is inevitable to meet some people during dinner. I was struggling with what clothes to wear in my room, and Cheng Mo called me: "You don't have to go down to eat at night, I'll call you to the room to eat." ”
"Why?" I asked, "I think it's better to go down." ”
"Ah Zi, I know you don't care about other people's thoughts and statements, but your parents do." Cheng Mo paused, "Just to make their faces look better, okay?" ”
His tone was a little soft, with a hint of pleading.
"Do you think this kind of thing can be solved by hiding? It's just to avoid more misunderstandings from others, so I have to go downstairs. I said.
"In the past three days, my mother has really put her pride to the lowest. Can you think about how they feel? Being a stepmother to others, which parent is willing to say this kind of thing, not to mention that you are so good to those two children! Cheng Mo continued to lobby me, "Even if you want to be really good, you have to avoid people, don't be so high-profile, okay?" ”
"I asked Hua Yuanshu to write a statement, saying that he married me is Gao Pan?" I sneered.
There is a curse that no one can escape - living in other people's comments. I used to be the same, if I didn't mind what other people said, I wouldn't have married so early. It's just that for people who haven't experienced all this firsthand, it's useless for me to say anything.
"Okay, if that's the case, don't blame me for looking for a helper tomorrow, I'll let people know that Hua Yuanshu is indeed climbing high." Cheng Mo saw that I was useless, changed his strategy, and finally sighed.
In the end, I still saw Guan Yunzhu and Cheng Siyan in the hall, maybe they thought I was right, the more they hid, the more others thought that the Cheng family was weak-hearted.
I saw Guan Yunzhu walk over immediately, and she smiled and asked me to sit next to her.
In addition to the three members of the Cheng family at this table, there were other people, who seemed to be very familiar with the Cheng family, looked at me up and down a few times and asked, "This is your girl?" ”
Guan Yunzhu smiled and said, "Isn't it, it's so big in the blink of an eye, and I'm going to get married in the blink of an eye." ”
I smiled and greeted the family, and Guan Yunzhu introduced him and said, "This is Uncle Song, he hugged you when you were a child." ”
"No, you're only so old when you were a kid, and you're so cute." The man in the house said to me, "It's so big in the blink of an eye, and we look old." ”
may be because of acquaintances, Guan Yunzhuzhu and Cheng Siyan are in a good mood.
I tried to reduce my sense of presence, as a background and props for them to chat, and finally waited until both words were finished chatting, I put down my chopsticks and followed Guan Yunzhu to accompany Uncle Song's family upstairs.
When our family returned to Guan Yunzhu and Cheng Siyan's suite, everyone put away the mask-like smiles on their faces, glanced at each other, and Cheng Mo sighed first.
Guan Yunzhu glanced at him and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Such a good cabbage just let Hua Yuanshu's pig arch." Cheng Mo made a helpless expression, and after finishing speaking, he smiled at Guan Yunzhu, "Isn't that what Mom thinks in her heart?" ”
"Not only do I think so, so does your Uncle Song." Guan Yunzhu said.
The topic opened, and the atmosphere also made Cheng Mo relaxed, he saw that Guan Yunzhu's face was no longer tight, and immediately said, "Whatever you want to drink, I'll get it." Tonight I know that you and your sister have something to say, and I guess we will have to talk until late. ”
"You're smart." Guan Yunzhu glanced at him and said, "Let's get some black tea, and then come back as soon as possible, our family of four won't be together for long." ”
As soon as these words came out, I felt inexplicably sad.
Cheng Siyan is not good at words in front of me, and he smiles generously at me, but tonight he is obviously going to sleep first, but he sat down on the sofa with Guan Yunzhu.
"Ah Zi, now everyone pays attention to engagement and doesn't pay attention to getting married, so this time, my parents thought about it, and before they left here, they sent invitations to their former acquaintances and old friends, asking them to come to your engagement ceremony." Cheng Siyan said slowly, "Your mother and I are not very satisfied with this marriage, but you are very satisfied, and we have no choice but to follow your mind like this." Recently, there have been some rumors that he is willing to be a stepmother for Hua Yuanshu's money, and only his own people know that this is nonsense. This time, I also learned what it means to be terrible, and I was even more sad than when I was hunted down for bankruptcy. In fact, contacting the previous people is also for you, in order to save face, and let everyone know who is the real Gao Pan. ”
I understand Cheng Siyan's words, he can't swallow my breath of being a stepmother. I thought to myself, what if he knew my true identity and knew that his own daughter had passed away. However, I didn't dare to think about it further.
"You shouldn't have heard what others say, and even if we are not very satisfied with this marriage, it will not make people look down on you." Guan Yunzhu took over.
Speaking of this, she and Cheng Siyan glanced at each other, and I vaguely guessed that they had something important to say. At this time, Cheng Mo walked over with the brewed black tea, put it on the small table in front of us and said, "Since my mother has spoken, I won't explain." ”
Guan Yunzhu glanced at him: "Say it, you can make it clear." ”
Cheng Mo didn't look up, he concentrated on holding a cup to distribute tea to everyone, and when a cup of tea was placed in front of everyone, he looked up at me with smart eyes and said, "In fact, at this time, to make face for you is to make face for Hua Yuanshu." ”
I looked at him and seemed to understand what he was saying, but I didn't understand it.
"I'll tell you the truth, don't you don't like to hear it." Cheng Mo paused, "Hua Yuanshu is from a business background, no matter what he does, he will put his own interests first when planning and maximize it." This time, he did such an engagement ceremony, you think he values you, but as an outsider, I just want to force our family to show strength. If you don't invite some weighty people to come, you are climbing high, and you are with him for money; If you invite some important people to come over, everyone will say that the door is right, in fact, inside and out, no matter what you do, Huayuanshu will benefit. ”
When he said this, I immediately understood, and I felt like I had swallowed a fly. I'd rather be stupid and don't know anything: "So what's going to happen?" I don't think my face matters......"
"How is it not important, your face determines your status in the family in the future, seeing your attitude towards Hua Yuanshu, Dad can guess it, and hopes that you can be happy for a lifetime, so even if you make face for Hua Yuanshu, at least your face will be preserved." Cheng Siyan interrupted me.
I still wanted to say something, Guan Yunzhu shook my hand and said, "It's never too late to listen to your father." ”
Cheng Siyan paused, and the expression on his face became more serious: "Ah Zi, no matter what purpose you marry Hua Yuanshu, this is a major event in a girl's life, so Dad doesn't care about the outcome in the future, and now at this time, Dad doesn't allow others to bully you, whether it is in words or deeds." ”
"Okay, don't be so serious, it's the same as parting with life and death." Cheng Mo interrupted Cheng Siyan's words.
"What kind of day is this, what is life and death!" Guan Yunzhu scolded him. Cheng Mo hurriedly stuck out his tongue and said, "I was wrong, I shouldn't have said it." ”
After talking about it, I knew that the mysterious guest prepared by the Cheng family tomorrow was really an adult, and he was going to come by private plane, and I suddenly felt a little uneasy, I played this play, they fully cooperated, can I afford it in the future?
"Okay, don't think about it, go to sleep, tomorrow you have to be in a good state. Remember, no matter what happens, your family will always stand behind you, and if you are not happy, you will come back. Cheng Siyan summed it up.
I was warmed by what they said, and I had an impulse in my heart to tell the truth of the matter, but when I saw Cheng Mo's face, I came back to my senses, and I wanted them to be well, so I had to hide this matter. Cheng Mo told me a long time ago that since he wants to act, he will continue to act, and his parents can't accept the blow of losing their daughter again.
I took a deep breath and pressed down the emotion.
"Dad, Mom, I'll be fine, you really don't have to worry, I'll come back and tell you as soon as I have something." I said with a big smile.
Success is imminent, and I don't want to make a fuss.
After Guan Yunzhu and Cheng Siyan left, I opened the wardrobe and looked at the gorgeous dresses, which were all customized by Hua Yuanshu, each of which cost more than 100,000 yuan. I flicked the gown one by one with my fingers, and there was a real sense of victorious pride in my heart. Hua Yuanshu and I started from trading and died from trading. Now, I finally have the opportunity to take it all from him, how can I not be happy in my heart. There is a saying that is true, a woman's best weapon is herself.
When I came out of the cloakroom, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep, the wardrobe was full of beautiful clothes, the safe was full of limited-edition jewelry, and there was a lot of cash in my bank card...... It's all beautiful.
A woman's sense of security can come from material things, and whether she has feelings or not is another matter.
I went to the bar and opened the wine cabinet, and now this time I need to celebrate myself, without a companion or a bystander, I open a drink to celebrate, for myself.
The wine in the wine cabinet is worth a lot of money, from thousands to tens of thousands, and I enjoy these casually, and the last person to check out is Hua Yuanshu. I picked out the most expensive bottle of champagne and opened it myself with a bottle picker. Just as I was pouring a glass of wine, Cheng Mo came to knock on the door. Seeing his face on the surveillance gave me a little headache. Didn't you just go? How did you dismantle it again?
I didn't want him to see my own, so I scrambled to pack everything before I went to open the door.
Today's second shift, no more at night, what's the day!
