585 The lover of your dreams is here! (Second update!)
Being able to play the role of general manager in Jinghua Family is definitely a versatile role.
Although these people cannot understand astronomy or geography, they can at least keep abreast of the "current affairs news" in Beijing. In this regard, Su Maocai did an excellent job.
But it was precisely because Su Maocai was very familiar with these things in Beijing that he was shocked when the manager on duty told him yesterday that the eldest daughter of the Chai family and Han Fang, the chairman of Changfeng Group, had booked an engagement banquet on the sixth day of the first lunar month:
What? No way? Who in the entire capital doesn’t know that the third prince Chu and the fourth princess of the Hua family are going to hold a banquet here today to celebrate their engagement? And who doesn’t know the relationship between the third prince Chu and Miss Chai?
All those grievances and resentments! At this time, the Chai family came to book a banquet, and it was clear that they were looking for trouble!
The manager on duty also understood what Su Maocai was worried about, but he was helpless because who dared to refuse the Chai family? Apart from reporting it to the superiors, there was nothing he could do about it?
Su Maocai naturally understood the difficulty of the duty manager, so he quickly reported it to the big boss Chu Xuanwu and asked him for instructions on what to do.
When he got the news about Su Maocai, Chu Xuanwu had already seen the invitation sent by Chai Yueran. He had no choice but to come here today to take charge after asking for the old man's instructions.
Although Chu Xuanwu didn't say anything to Su Maocai or the manager on duty after he arrived, his gloomy face showed his dissatisfaction.
"Ahem, Manager Su."
Finally, just when Su Maocai was thinking wildly, Chu Xuanwu stopped shaking, put his elbows on the desk and asked: "How many tables are there in total for the engagement banquet of the Chai family? On which floor are the boxes arranged?"
"A total of ten tables have been booked. The 'Fengming Pavilion' on the seventh and seventh floors is opposite the 'Longyin Pavilion' booked by the third prince of Chu."
Su Maocai lowered his head as he spoke: "When the people from Chai Mansion came yesterday, they specified that 'Fengmingxuan' should be used. I, I also..."
"Oh, I can't blame you for this." When Chu Xuanwu heard this, he waved his hands with a wry smile: "Forget it, go out and arrange it yourself, and be more diligent."
"Yes!" Su Mao, who had been granted amnesty, had just stood up from the sofa when someone knocked on the office door. The lobby manager's voice sounded from outside: "Mr. Su, guests from the Chu Mansion have arrived. Do you want to
Go out and greet him?"
…
According to the traditional Chinese engagement ceremony, the entire process and the items that need to be prepared are quite complicated.
For example, both men and women must prepare six kinds of etiquette. The engagement ceremony must be held at the woman's home, and all important guests invited must be the woman's. Etiquettes such as this are indispensable.
However, after the detailed 'meeting' between the Chu and Hua families, they still felt that there was no need to make such fuss, and they might as well just invite more guests to support them.
As long as there are more people cheering, doesn't it show the Chu family's sincerity?
Although the Chu family wants to make this engagement ceremony more grand, this kind of occasion cannot be compared with Chu Longbin's seventy-eighth birthday. Not to mention that none of the old men from the major aristocratic families are present, at least the ones at the hotel entrance
The highways are not strictly enforced.
Among the people who came today, apart from Chu Tiantai and his wife, the most important ones were Hua Manyu's second uncle Hua Zongshen and his wife.
Because Princess Hua's parents died early, and Hua Canyu suddenly had urgent work to deal with and could not be present, Hua Zongshen and his wife had full authority to represent her natal family today.
Except for these four who are over forty, the rest are all young people who are relatively close to the Chuhua family, such as the ### of the Fang family, the fourth child of the Lin family, the fifth child of the Huang family...
Even Xie Fengyun, the ninth young master of the Xie family, came.
Knowing that Xie Fengyun came just to watch the excitement, brothers Chu Yang and Chu Xuanwu still had to greet them politely.
Xie Fengyun seemed to have received instructions from the old man of the Xie family when he came. He always had the most friendly smile on his pretty face that could pass for a duck, and he never mentioned anything about his eldest sister Xie Yaotong.
Son, this also made Chu Yang feel somewhat relieved.
Around nine-thirty, Chu Yang turned around and looked at the hall. Sixty-seven people had arrived, so he pulled Chu Xuanwu aside and asked quietly: "Do you know when the people over there will come?"
Of course, Chu Xuanwu knew that the 'people over there' Chu Yang mentioned was Chai Murong, and he shook his head with a wry smile: "I don't know, I guess it's almost over. Oh, third brother, do you think it will happen today?"
What's the accident? My right eyelid has been twitching since I woke up in the morning."
Chu Yang also gave a helpless smile: "Hey, what else could happen? It's okay. Just remember, no matter how they look for trouble, we can just be our grandsons!"
Seeing his brother lowering his mentality so low, Chu Xuanwu felt a little uncomfortable. After nodding, he was about to say something, but he pointed to the door and whispered: "Third brother, the lover of your dreams is here!"
"What?" Chu Yang looked up in surprise and saw Qin Chao and Qin Mengyao sisters appearing at the door of the hall hand in hand.
The reason why Chu Yang and Hua Manyu held this engagement ceremony was to deal with the Qin family, which led to the fact that Chai Murong also wanted to get engaged here today... This point, as long as those who are qualified to participate in this circle
People, more or less, have heard of it.
Therefore, when they saw the Qin sisters walking into the hall in such a majestic manner, everyone, including the Chu Tiantai couple, Hua Zongshen couple and Hua Manyu who were chatting in the corner of the hall, all turned their attention.
Hall entrance.
To be precise, everyone is watching Chu Yang to see how he will deal with the eldest lady of the Qin family.
Sister, what are you doing here for nothing? At that time, I sent you an invitation just to be polite. Who would have known that you would actually come? Are you here to watch the fun like Mr. Xie Jiushao?
Slandering Qin Chao in his heart, Chu Yang greeted him with a smile like a flower: "Haha, Qin Chao, Mengyao, why are you here?"
"Tch," Qin Mengyao, who didn't wait for Qin Chao to speak, grabbed the hair with her left hand and played with it, scanned Chu Yang's face with her big eyes and said with a curled mouth: "Chu Yang, I think you are really hypocritical.
"
Chu Yang was stunned: "Why am I being hypocritical?"
"When you saw the sisters coming in, were you wondering why we were here? We must be here to watch the fun, right?"
Chu Yang coughed: "Well, how could I have such an idea! I am really happy that you can come today."
"Yao Yao, today is a good day for Chu Yang and Miss Hua Si. You are not allowed to talk nonsense! If I had known this, I would never have agreed to your coming!"
After scolding Qin Mengyao in a low voice who wanted to say something else, Qin Chao smiled apologetically at Chu Yang: "Chu Yang, this girl is like this, don't blame her."
"No, how could it be? Haha, Yaoyao is still a child, please, please come inside!" Chu Yang said haha, stretched out his hand to make a sign of "please come inside", and after Qin Chao walked towards the hall first, he deliberately tilted his head.
Staring at Qin Mengyao's chest, he stuck out his tongue and licked his lips.
Chu's extremely obscene action made Qin Mengyao suddenly think of the day when he touched her breasts. Suddenly, her face turned red and she cursed "rogue" in her heart.
After that, he didn't dare to say anything anymore and quickly chased Qin Chao.
Hehe, the best way to deal with a little pepper like her is to act like a gangster in front of her!
Looking at Qin Mengyao's back, Chu Yang smiled proudly. When he turned around and was about to say something to Chu Xuanwu, he saw a series of black extended RVs on the road outside. There must be more than twenty of them, driving like clouds and flowing water.
Entered the parking lot of the Grand Hotel.
Although the extended RV was nothing in the eyes of the Chu brothers, when they saw so many RVs together, it still had a slight impact on their vision.
"Damn, this guy Han Fang has made the battle really fierce. Third brother, the people over there are here."
After Chu Xuanwu cursed in a low voice, he reminded Chu Yang: "Should we let the guests go to the private room on the seventh floor first? To avoid unnecessary embarrassment if everyone is facing each other."
If you don’t leave now, when will you wait?
Chu Yang nodded affirmatively, and just as he raised his right foot, he stopped and said with a wry smile: "Xuanwu, please take everyone to the box first. I'm afraid I have to go out and say a few words... Because of her, her mother is here
Yes, if I avoid you, it will seem like our Chu family has lost etiquette."
When Chu Xuanwu looked outside, he saw a lady wearing a black mink coat, getting out of the extended Lincoln RV that had stopped first, being carefully served by the waiter.
This woman looks to be in her mid-thirties, not very tall, but her face, which has only been moistened with lipstick, has an otherworldly elegance that doesn't need to be deliberately put on.
No matter what style you wear, it will naturally attract other people’s attention.
Especially her pair of peach blossom eyes that are very similar to those of a high-ranking official. Just a slight glance will make the hearts of those who look at her inexplicably tremble, and their legs will feel numb.
This lady, whose actual age is over forty-five, but still looks like a lady under forty, is Chai Daguanren's biological mother and Chu Yang's former mother-in-law, Lin Jingxian.
Is this Chai Murong's mother? Hey, with such an intellectual flavor, no wonder Lao Chai would rather stay in Shu than return to Beijing. If I married such a wife, I would do the same... Chu Xuanwu is here
After feeling very envious of Chai's reputation, he quickly turned around to greet the guests.
We haven’t seen each other for more than a year, and Chai Murong’s mother is getting younger and younger... After the Chu family’s guests were greeted by Chu Xuanwu and walked to the elevator knowingly, Chu Yang then went to the elevator with all his strength.
Walk outside the hall.
In the parking lot of the Grand Hotel, before the hotel service staff came over, Ling Xing rushed to Lin Jingxian with several black suits.
After getting off the car, Lin Jingxian looked up at the magnificent building, lightly wrapped her coat with her right hand wearing an ordinary silver ring, then turned to look at her daughter who got off the car, and asked with a smile: "Murong, your engagement
Is the banquet right here?"
"Yes, Mom, this is the Grand Hotel." Chai Murong walked up to Lin Jingxian and put his arms around her mother's right arm with a happy face.
