Chapter 7: The Engagement Banquet

Bang!

Xin Lulu couldn't listen to it anymore and slapped it on the table. In these years, when you are looking for someone to tell fortunes, you love to listen to good things, but if you say something unlucky, it will make people very angry, and some people will even call you a big liar.

"Mo Chop, you dog mouth, how can you speak!"

"You scolded my sister Kefu, is there such a fortune teller as you?"

"Return the money, hurry up and give us the money back!"

I'm telling the truth, if it weren't for the fact that it's across a table, I'm afraid Xin Lulu would have grabbed me by the collar and given me a paw.

I leaned back, put some distance from her, then folded my arms around my chest, and said indifferently: "Believe it or not, if I can't tell you accurately this year, you can send someone to demolish my store at any time." ”

I put on an indifferent appearance, but Bai Lu grabbed Xin Lulu's arm and comforted her: "Forget it, I'm fine, let's go." ”

"But ......, he's cursing you!" Xin Lulu clenched her small fists with a look of displeasure.

Bai Lu shook her head and pulled Xin Lulu to go out, but Xin Lulu kept muttering, saying that it was a shame to be a classmate with me.

I watched the two of them drift apart, and sighed, "The girl is a good girl, but it's a pity why don't you ask me, can I help you solve the problem?" ”

I slapped my head and felt like I was being too reckless. "Alas, it's all because I'm too honest when I speak, or because I have too little experience."

I thought to myself, if I change the father to the aura disagreement between the father and daughter, and then say that the worry about my life will happen if there is an accident, I guess the other party can accept it more easily.

It seems that not everyone is like Li Hong, who can believe me in a few words.

I also guessed that what Xin Lulu said about cutting peach blossoms should be to cut off her relationship with her gangster boyfriend.

Why do I think that?

Xin Lulu has become good friends with a rich girl, and she will definitely be able to meet a lot of rich second generations, and she can't wait to find a rich man. The gangster boyfriend before that was really nothing.

This does not require fortune telling, but is purely a human inference.

It's a pity, judging from Xin Lulu's palmistry, she didn't have the life to marry into a wealthy family, and marrying an ordinary white-collar worker is quite reliable.

……

After more than a month, a blue Cullinan was parked in front of my store.

The woman in a white dress walked out of the car, it was Li Hong.

She stood at the door, hooked her finger at me, and winked at me: "Brother Mo, have you missed me lately?" ”

I gently put down a book in my hand and got up to greet Li Hong.

"Sister Hong, we haven't seen each other for a long time!" I arched my hand, still a little unable to accept her enthusiasm.

Li Hong slapped me on the chest, pretending to be angry: "Hmph, it seems that you don't miss me at all." ”

Although I glanced at her chest, I didn't dare to fight back, and no one knew if there was a big man behind this woman.

Even if she is watery Yanghua, at least she can't figure out the details of the other party, and I don't dare to get involved.

I laughed dryly, and Li Hong said lightly: "I caught the mulberry silk and is now hiding it in a warehouse, but I can't ask who is behind him." ”

I probably understood what Li Hong meant, so I asked, "Sister Hong, what do you mean, do you need me to do it?" ”

Li Hong said that she was not in a hurry, she stretched out a hand, and the black-clothed driver handed the two invitations to her hand.

Li Hong handed me one of them, and I stared at the invitation with the word "Tang" written on it, lost in thought.

"Little Brother Mo, the person you asked me to help you inquire about is the eldest lady of the Tang family, Tang Wanru."

"Her engagement is today."

"I have an invitation, just to take you to meet it."

What? Betrothal?

It was as if I had been struck by lightning and my head was empty. According to my adoptive father's instructions, this girl must marry me!

I clutched the invitation tightly and said nothing.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Li Hong raised her eyebrows: "Little Brother Mo, what's wrong with you?" Do you have something to do with Tang Wanru? ”

I lied: "I was just asked to meet her." ”

Li Hong sighed, didn't ask any more, and pulled me into the car and went straight to Tang's house.

Li Hong told me that the Tang family was a wealthy family in Jinling, the family was a six-generation businessman, and Lie's grandfather used to be a boatman, and accidentally found a large iron box in the river, which was full of gold.

This ancestor of the Tang family, with this money, bought a lot of ships and was responsible for the transportation of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

Today, the Tang family is the overlord of maritime transportation, sitting on two ports, even if the Tang family does nothing, they can earn billions every year just by relying on storage fees.

And Tang Wanru is the only daughter of this generation, whoever marries her in the future will be able to enjoy the entire Tang family!

I asked Li Hong, who is the engaged man?

Li Hong also couldn't say clearly, "I've been in Jinling for less than six years, and there are still many hidden families I don't know, I think it may be these people." ”

"Think about it, the Tang family has such a daughter, she must find a son-in-law."

"If you find the children of rich families, then after a hundred years, the Tang family will exist in name only."

"If it's just an ordinary man, the Tang family can't look down on it, and the hidden family is more in line with the interests of the Tang family."

I've heard my adoptive father say that this so-called hidden family is a family that inherits different arts, like the Miao family in Kunming, which is famous for its Gu arts.

The Jin family in Shenyang is a descendant of the Great Shaman.

The Luo family in Changsha is a family of tomb robbers.

The Mo family of Shangqiu, the descendants of Mozi.

The Weng family in Yanjing has been Si Tianjian for generations.

There are still many hidden families, I don't know, my adoptive father didn't say it, it is estimated that such a family is not in his eyes.

The car drove slowly, looking at the beautiful scenery outside the window, but I was preoccupied, I didn't know what to do?

I have always believed in my adoptive father's vision, and the woman he asked me to marry must be very important to me.

Soon, we came to the Tang Mansion on General Mountain, which has an area of more than 20,000 square meters.

Outside the door, the stone lion more than three meters high shows the wealth of the Tang family, and the yard is full of luxury cars.

The whole mansion looks like an ancient castle in the continent, with a huge pool in front of it, and the water jet head is made of pure gold, which looks extremely extravagant.

I got out of the car with Li Hong, handed the invitation to the security guard at the door, and then entered the hall of the mansion.

Li Hong said hello to me and said that she would go to meet some old friends first, and then come back to me later.

I said yes, and walked into the banquet hall alone, surrounded by people holding wine glasses, talking and laughing, and chatting happily, making me feel like an outsider.

I saw a banner hanging on the wall, which read: "Congratulations, Miss Tang Wanru and Mr. Sun Xingluo are engaged!" ”

At this moment, a crisp voice suddenly came from behind me: "Mr. Mo, why are you here?" ”
