Chapter Forty-Eight: Attending a Banquet for the First Time
If He Hui saw her daughter Yao Jia crying in normal times, she would have taken her to buy a new dress.
But because of Xu Zhiyao's matter, she was distraught and couldn't care about anything else.
"Are you still my own mother?"
Looking at the door that was about to close, Yao Jia stumbled forward and grabbed Yao Chongrui's shirt.
"Dad! You don't care about my mother! ”
"Okay, it's almost late, so if you want to go, you can leave quickly."
Yao Chongrui was also a little absent-minded, and gently patted his daughter's head.
Yao Jia is a fun-loving person, why is he reluctant not to go? I wiped my eyes and followed He Hui and Yao Chongrui.
……
Yao Qingqing, the third brother, and Mrs. Yao arrived earlier, and this was also the first time Yao Qingqing came to this kind of occasion.
As soon as a few people entered the door, the audience was quiet for a moment.
"Who is she? What a beautiful little girl. ”
Mrs. Liu, who was dressed as a noblewoman, looked at Yao Qingqing between Yao Huaiyu and Mrs. Yao, and looked stunned.
Before the person next to her could speak, Yao Huaiyu stretched out his hand towards Yao Qingqing: "Sister, brother will lead you away."
What?
It turned out to be Yao Huaiyu's sister?
Isn't that the granddaughter of Old Man Yao?
"Is it your own?"
"Of course yes, haven't you watched the recent entertainment news? Yao Huaichen took her to record "The Omnipotent Brother", which has been very popular recently, if it is not biological, how can it be so spoiled?"
The crowd was full of whispers.
Mrs. Yao was originally worried that Yao Qingqing would have stage fright, but she didn't expect Yao Qingqing's psychological quality to be much stronger than she thought.
It is worthy of our Yao family! She thought to herself.
Listening to the praise, Yao Qingqing straightened his waist more and more, and his whole person was in good spirits, like a noble princess, which attracted frequent praise from everyone.
"Old lady, your granddaughter is well raised, at a young age, she already has the temperament you had back then." Mrs. Liu came back to her senses, looked at Yao Qingqing and praised.
"Qingqing, thank you, Auntie, for the compliment."
Yao Qingqing replied politely, neither humble nor arrogant, but very comfortable.
"Seeing that your family is clear, I want to hug my granddaughter haha."
Mrs. Liu is very well maintained, in her fifties, there are few fine lines around her eyes, and her smile is very amorous.
Yao Qingqing remembered that in her previous life, when the Yao family was in trouble, Mrs. Liu and her husband had reached out to help......
"Then you have to let your son marry a daughter-in-law first......" Mrs. Yao stepped forward to hold Mrs. Liu's hand and began to talk.
A few minutes later, Yao Chongrui and He Hui arrived with Yao Jia.
Everyone in the circle knows that Yao Huaiming, the eldest grandson of Old Man Yao, and several of Yao Huaiming's brothers have broken with their father, and the Xie family must have sent another invitation to Yao Chongrui because of this.
When Mrs. Yao saw them, the corners of her mouth that had been raised gradually flattened.
"Mom, Huaiyu, Qingqing." Yao Chongrui stepped forward and greeted him very "naturally".
At the beginning, Yao Huaiming proposed to split up, and he was laughed at by his brothers for several days, and insiders also used that matter as a talking point, and this was the first time he attended a dinner party since that incident.
"Hmm." Mrs. Yao obviously had a perfunctory attitude towards him, and she didn't even look at He Hui and Yao Jia behind Yao Chongrui.
"Let's go, Qingqing, grandma will take you to eat something delicious."
Mrs. Yao gave Yao Huaiyu a look, and the latter immediately picked up Yao Qingqing and walked forward, ignoring Yao Chongrui.
"Uh......" Yao Chongrui's words came to his lips and swallowed back.
"Let's go over there."
Feeling the gaze of the surroundings, Yao Chongrui pulled the corners of his mouth uncomfortably. He thought it might be embarrassing, but he didn't expect it to be so embarrassing.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Yao and Yao Huaiyu's stinky boy didn't save him any face, and the daughter who had just been found didn't say hello when they saw him......
"What? Do you regret it?" He Hui looked at his face, and his mind made a few detours, "If you regret it, go and get them back, after all, it's a family, and it's not like a lot of trouble, your sons are stubborn, I'll persuade them another day." ”
Yao Chongrui originally regretted it, but after listening to He Hui's words, he turned a cold face: "How can I regret it? Where in this world is there Lao Tzu who bows his head to his son? What do they do? We live our days. ”
"Yao Qingqing wears better clothes than me." Yao Jia stood next to Yao Chongrui and kicked the table in dissatisfaction.
On such an important occasion, Yao Chongrui was afraid that she would have another seizure, so he hurriedly coaxed: "Jiajia, when the banquet is over, Dad will take you to buy something better."
Yao Jia snorted, but his face was still not good-looking.
And He Hui on the side was absent-minded, as if she was looking for someone.
"What are you doing? I told you to be unresponsive for a long time. Yao Chongrui slapped his wife.
"Oh, it's fine." He Hui came back to her senses and blinked weakly.
Why didn't anyone from the Xu family come? Didn't the Xie family send out invitations?
He Hui looked around and thought to herself.
She hasn't been in touch with Xu Zhiyao in the past few days, and Lin Zhilan has disappeared inexplicably, she is worried that Xu Zhiyao will make a mistake, He Hui originally planned to send someone to solve Lin Zhilan, who knows how she can't find Lin Zhilan.
"Okay, Jiajia hasn't eaten yet, let's go eat something first." Yao Chongrui led Yao Jia with his left hand and He Hui with his right hand to the dessert area.
Coincidentally, Yao Qingqing was also eating in the dessert area.
"Nurse, doesn't Dad like Qingqing?" Yao Qingqing took the opportunity to ask.
The reason why Yao Qingqing asked this is because she thinks that ordinary children ask this question.
In fact, she has long been disappointed in Yao Chongrui.
"Qingqing wants him to like it?"
Old Lady Yao looked at Yao Qingqing's expression and sighed.
Yes, Qingqing has a lot now, but she can't do anything about the very important father's love and mother's love.
But Yao Chongrui is like that, how can he be good to Qingqing?
"Nope."
Just as Mrs. Yao was thinking about it with a heavy heart, Yao Qing's crisp voice rang out.
"It's enough for Qingqing to have an older brother and grandparents."
Children can't lie, after Yao Qingqing's words were finished, Mrs. Yao and Yao Huaiyu were relieved, and at the same time made up their minds that they would be better to Qingqing in the future.
Yao Chongrui and He Hui naturally saw Yao Qingqing and them, Yao Chongrui hesitated for a moment, and did not pass after all.
People don't care, so why did he stick his hot face to other people's cold butts in the past?
The Xie family hadn't arrived yet, and no one dared to say no.
The Xie family did not arrive, but everyone waited for the Xu family.
I saw Xu Zhiyao at the door, his eyes were all black and blue, and he looked a little in good spirits.
What's even more surprising is that his right hand is holding a good-looking girl.
"Mr. Xu, I haven't seen you for a long time? I don't know what I'm up to? A short, stocky middle-aged man with glasses asked.
Who present didn't know that the Xu family had offended the Yao family, and it was difficult to have a bad time these days, so it was inevitable that there would be some schadenfreude when asking like this.
"I ...... I went to do something. ”
