587 Engagement and Wedding Banquet (Fourth update!)
It’s raining in Jinan today, brother... you should rest at home.
Which sister wants to come to Jinan to watch the rain?
…
"What? He is Murong's ex-husband?"
Lin Jingxian looked at Chu Yang, repeated Han Fang's words in a low voice, and then suddenly realized: "Oh, I remembered, it turns out you are Chu Yang! Oh, look at my memory, how can I do this?
Don’t you recognize you? Tsk, Chu Yang, you look much better now than when you went to Shuzhong the year before last. Well, well, you are so proud of the spring breeze.”
It felt bad to be ridiculed by my ex-mother-in-law like this. This made Mr. Chu's face turn red obviously, and he became awkward when speaking: "Lin, Aunt Lin was joking, I'm still the same."
"Hey, it's not the same as before. It's obviously much prettier. Otherwise, why would you dislike my daughter?"
After Lin Jingxian said this with a smile, she took the little hand of Chai Murong, who was looking so pitiful at this time: "Murong, if I had known this, you should have gone to South Korea for plastic surgery. Oh, forget it, forget it,
It's too late for plastic surgery at this time... Oh, by the way, Chu Yang, why are you here today? Are you here to support Murong and Han Fang's engagement ceremony? "
"I, I..." Although Chu Mounan usually thought that he was quite a shameless person, but at this moment, in front of Lin Jingxian, who was pretending to be stupid but was very sharp-tongued, he acted like a real fool, his head
He slumped lower and lower, and he didn't know what to say to others.
Just when Chu was staring at the road, longing for a crack to suddenly appear on the road, Han Fang stood up in time: "Haha, Aunt Lin, the third prince of Chu is here because he happened to be with the Hua family today.
The fourth lady is engaged."
Suddenly, the envy on Lin Jingxian's face turned into surprise: "What? Chu Yang is also getting engaged? Hehua's fourth lady? Oh, I see, is she the legendary Hua Manyu who stole other people's men?
"
Regarding Lin Jingxian's words, Han Fang did not dare to speak nonsense.
It may not matter if she offends Chu Yang, but if she offends that cruel Hua Manyu, who knows how she will take revenge?
Seeing that Han Fang stopped talking and just smiled and nodded slightly, Lin Jingxian stopped asking. She just looked at Chu Yang meaningfully for a moment, then held her daughter's hand and sighed with low regret,
I bypassed him and walked towards the hall.
"Chu Yang, I, I sympathize with you. Ahem, but I want to tell you..."
When Han Fang passed by Chu Yang, he wanted to explain the reason to him, but when he saw that Chai Murong seemed to be turning around, he immediately shut his mouth and followed quickly.
…
Originally, Chu Yang planned to find a better opportunity later for Chu Tiantai and his wife to meet Lin Jingxian.
Although he has divorced Chai Murong now, the friendship between the two parents is still good.
However, after Lin Jingxian severely humiliated Chu Yang, he felt that it was better not to arrange it like this anymore. Who knows how this noble and elegant lady would make fun of the old couple?
Chu Yang is a junior, and Lin Jingxian, who used to be his mother-in-law, will have to endure it even if she gives him a few slaps in public, not to mention sarcastic words, right?
But what about Chu Tiantai? He was an arrogant but incompetent man. Even if he had a fatal friendship with Chai Mingming, he would definitely not let a woman tell him what to do.
No matter what you say, you can't let the old man go to see Lin Jingxian. If he gets angry and loses his temper, it will definitely make the relationship between Chai and Chu, who are walking on thin ice, even more tense. However, since she has also come to this hotel, if she doesn't propose a toast, then outsiders will
Not only will they laugh at the Chu family for their lack of etiquette, but it will also arouse Lian Lian's imagination. Oh, that's all, I'll go there later. Anyway, I've already been ridiculed once... I watched the guests from the Chai and Han families walk into the hall.
Finally, Chu Yang slowly walked over there.
The ‘Longyin Pavilion’ box on the seventh floor.
In a grand and high-end hotel, in addition to providing private rooms for small groups to have fun, there will definitely be large private rooms that can cover thousands of square meters.
The 'Longyin Pavilion' and 'Fengming Pavilion' on the seventh floor are large private rooms that can accommodate hundreds of people without being crowded.
When Chu Yang entered the box, the people inside who were sitting in their seats and chatting in low voices all closed their mouths and looked at Chu Yang.
Chu Yang had experienced the scene of being stared at by so many people several times, so he acted quite calmly, with a smile that said nothing had happened: "Haha, there are not many outsiders here today, those
I won’t say any kind words, everyone just needs to be more casual!”
"Yeah, feel free to do whatever you want, I came here just for fun!" At this time, Chu Xuanwu also stood up and echoed Chu Yang along with Chu Ling.
With the help of Chu Xuanwu brother and sister, Chu Yang didn't have to be too polite with these young masters, and walked up to the chairman with a smile and a nod.
In Chinese tradition, as long as there are more than two banquet tables, priority will be distinguished.
Undoubtedly, at the banquet hosted by Hua Zongshen and his wife, Chu Tiantai and his wife, Hua Manyu and others today, it was the chairman.
After Chu Yang walked to the chairman, he discovered that Qin Chao's sister Qin Mengyao was also placed on this table, just to the left of Hua Manyu, separated by an empty seat.
This vacant seat, no need to ask, is reserved for Chu Yang.
It seems that the Chu Xuanwu brother and sister who are responsible for arranging the seats really put a lot of thought into the arrangements, otherwise they would not have arranged Sister Qin, who has a deep affection for Chu Yang, here.
Although Qin Chao definitely feels uncomfortable sitting here watching the man she likes sing hymns of love with other girls, she is still very satisfied with how the Chu family has arranged her position.
What's more, Chu Tiantai and his wife also felt a little bit guilty towards her, and were extremely polite to her sisters.
After seeing Chu Yang coming over, Chu Tiantai paused his conversation with Hua Zongshen, raised his head and asked him with his eyes: How do you plan to deal with your ex-mother-in-law?
It is said that father and son have a good understanding. How could Chu Yang not see the movement in Chu Tiantai's eyes? So he just nodded his head, which meant: Old man, don't worry, don't be afraid! This matter
Just leave it to me. Don't worry, old man, she can't do anything with me!
Seeing that Chu Yang was so confident, Lao Chu put his heart into his heart. He stood up slightly and smiled at Hua Zongshen and then said: "Chu Yang, come here, let me introduce you formally.
This is Manyu’s second uncle, you can also call me second uncle.”
Chu Yang respectfully called his second uncle.
"This is your second aunt."
"Hello, second aunt."
Hua Zongshen's wife was a very intellectual woman. When she was greeted by Chu Yang, she did not sit firmly on the Diaoyutai like the old lady. Instead, she stood up and said, "Haha, Chu Yang, we will all be a family from now on. You
Don't be polite, let Manyu take you to play at home when you have time."
"Thank you, Second Aunt." After hearing Mrs. Hua say this, Chu Yang developed an infinite... fondness for her.
Although Hua Zongshen and his wife must have known Qin Chao for a long time, Chu Yang should have introduced the Qin Chao sisters to them at this formal banquet.
However, because of Sister Qin, Hua Canyu, and his messy affairs, he was too embarrassed to bother with it.
Hua Zongshen and his wife didn't seem to have this intention, so after saying a few polite words to Chu Yang, Mrs. Hua greeted him to sit down.
Chu Yang agreed and sat in the empty seat reserved for him.
On the right is Hua Manyu, on the left is Qin Chao. Mr. Chu, who is sitting among them, will see a very unnatural face whether he looks to the left or right, which makes him feel even more unnatural.
In fact, isn't it just Chu Yang who feels unnatural? Hua Zongshen and his wife also felt the same way because Qin Chao came to sit down.
Qin Chao's pursuit of Hua Canyu has long been known to everyone in Jinghua's high-level circles, but who could have imagined that this girl would become a widow for the 'dead' Chu Yang a year ago! Moreover,
After Chu Yang came back from the dead, the old man of the Qin family personally came forward to try to bring them together.
Alas, she was supposed to be the daughter-in-law of the Hua family, but she pursued the man that the daughter of the Hua family liked. After failure, she came to the engagement banquet so openly. What kind of mess is this... Hua Zong didn't know what it was like.
After sitting down in Qin Chao, Mr. and Mrs. Shen deliberately avoided talking to her.
Before Chu Yang came, the atmosphere was somewhat awkward, but after he came and sat down, the atmosphere was still a bit strange. Only Chu Tiantai and Hua Zongshen behaved relatively normally...
Fortunately, Chu Xuanwu, who had arranged the guests at this time, came over, asked the waiter to add a chair here, and sat down.
In this kind of inexplicably embarrassing situation, it is undoubtedly very appropriate to have a young prince who is well-liked in all aspects sitting here.
"Haha, Second Uncle Hua and Second Auntie, I believe you all know who I am. I won't be too polite. Don't blame me for being rude."
Chu Xuanwu first relaxed the atmosphere, then picked up the wine glass in front of him, raised it to Chu Tiantai, and said with a smile: "Second uncle, today is a good day for the engagement of my third brother and sister-in-law Manyu. I suggest that we
Before getting to the point, would you like to have a drink first?"
"Yes, today is a happy event, so of course we have to drink." Chu Tiantai raised his wine glass happily and turned slightly sideways to Hua Zongshen: "Second brother, since Xuanwu has talked about this, let's have a drink first?
Haha, of course, ladies who drink red wine can do whatever they want."
"Okay, I agree." Hua Zongshen picked up the wine glass filled with Wuliangye, held it in his hand and slowly turned it around, then raised his head and drank it dry.
Yun Ruoxi, Hua Manyu, Qin Chao and other ladies also looked very relaxed. They picked up the red wine and took a sip.
After drinking a glass of hot white wine, Chu Tiantai felt a little more relaxed. Coupled with Chu Xuanwu's deliberate reconciliation, the atmosphere on the table gradually became more relaxed.
Since the reason why everyone got together today is for Chu Yang and Hua Manyu, then the next topic will naturally revolve around them.
In accordance with China's excellent spirit of 'modesty', Chu Tiantai and his wife first talked about a few shortcomings of their 'dog son', and then said many things such as, 'If Manyu can marry Chu Yang, then this kid was a cultivator in his previous life.
