Anyway, if you don't agree, you have to agree. I want Bai Xiao as my daughter-in-law.
"Your poker skills are not good, Qi You, you have to let me play."
Pei Qiyou pulled his lips. When taking the cards, Yu Shaoting held the cards with his left hand. The ring on his ring finger immediately became the focus of attention.
"Hey? Mistress, why are you wearing the ring on your finger?" Yu Lanming asked.
Yu Shaoting played a card and said in a casual tone: "It was given by someone else."
"Who is it?" Mrs. Yu Da also stopped gossiping, smiled ambiguously, and glanced at the door: "It's not Miss Bai, right?"
Yu Shaoting smiled and said nothing.
Pei Qiyou's hand holding the mahjong tiles tightened unconsciously, and he heard Yu Lanming say: "Generally men buy rings, how can a woman do it?"
"She likes to do this, I can't stop her." Yu Shaoting lit a cigarette.
The rising smoke made Pei Qiyou's eyes red. He touched a card and played it out. Yu Shaoting suddenly pushed all the cards down: "All of one color."
——————————
Bai Xiao stayed outside for more than twenty minutes. When he came back, he heard Yu Yiwei's displeased voice: "Uncle, why do you keep playing Qi You's cards!"
Then she heard Yu Shaoting's unhurried voice: "Isn't it the position you chose? He is my boss. If I don't take his cards, whose cards will I take?"
After Bai Xiao entered, he saw Yu Yiwei standing behind Pei Qiyou, with an expression on his face that he had swallowed a fly.
When he was about to reach behind Yu Shaoting, Bai Xiao saw that he had pushed down the cards, mixed them up, and hit Pei Qiyou three times. Pei Qiyou had to pay three times the price!
Pei Qiyou's card skills were not bad, but he lost miserably, and Bai Xiao also noticed that he was not in a good state.
However, Yu Shaoting seemed to be deliberately against him. Bai Xiao saw with her own eyes that Yu Shaoting broke up two pairs in order to take advantage of Pei Qiyou's cards. In her opinion, the gain outweighed the loss, but he still played the cards calmly.
He was afraid that people wouldn't know that he had broken two pairs.
Pei Qiyou looked at the cards that Pei Qiyou played, smiled, and finally played the 'God of Wealth', which could be used as any card but could not be touched.
Yu Shaoting chuckled, half-smiling but not smiling, touched the cards and started playing. After Yu Lanming played a card, he became confused again.
Pei Qiyou looked at Yu Shaoting with cold eyes, feeling a little out of control, with veins protruding on the back of his hands.
Even Yu Lanming and Mrs. Yu Da noticed the tense atmosphere. They knew that Yu San had a bad temper, but they didn't expect that he would throw away Pei Qiyou's face like this. You said that the two of them are about to become relatives. It's not good to have a quarrel!
Old Mrs. Yu Da pushed the mahjong tiles forward: "I don't want to play anymore. I'd better go home and watch the opera!"
Yu Shaoting returned all the money he won to the two elders, and Pei Qiyou also pushed his share to him: "The family can have fun by themselves, take it back."
"If you lose, you lose." Pei Qiyou couldn't possibly lose his dignity again after losing cards. He stood up and slowed down as he passed by Bai Xiao.
Bai Xiao turned her head away, as if she hadn't seen him. Pei Qiyou's throat twitched, he clenched his hands, and passed her out anyway.
Pei Qiyou lost a lot, and Yu Yiwei looked reproachfully at Yu Shaoting, who was counting the money calmly, and chased after him with an annoyed stomp.
Bai Xiao sat down in the empty seat next to him and looked at him: "You did it on purpose, right?"
Yu Shaoting's right hand rested on the edge of the table, lighting a cigarette. He blew out a few wisps of smoke, backed away from the chair and stood up: "I'll take you to eat seafood tonight."
"You don't have to go to the engagement party at the hotel?"
He turned to look at her: "Do you want me to go or do you want me to take you?"
Bai Xiao felt that he was deliberately trying to squeeze her, so she glared at him pretending to be angry: "Why should I go? I'll go home in a while."
After saying that, he stood up and was about to leave. He grabbed her wrist. As soon as he stopped, Bai Xiao staggered and was dragged into his arms.
"Let go." She struggled, but he hugged her tightly and whispered, "Are you still making trouble?"
"Who is making trouble with you?" Bai Xiao pursed her lips: "I really want to go back. Just now He Huan said on the phone that he wanted to invite me to dinner."
"Would you like to go sing K with that Xiaoyu again?"
Bai Xiao didn't expect that he was still thinking about this matter: "Yu Shaoting, you are in your thirties, why are you still arguing with a child?"
"..." Yu Shaoting said in a strong tone: "What's wrong with me just arguing with him? I'm not allowed to go."
Bai Xiao repeatedly promised: "I won't see anyone else, just Huan. I have made an appointment with her..."
"We'll invite her out for dinner tomorrow."
"...Has anyone ever said that you are as childish as a child sometimes?"
Yu Shaoting looked down at her for a few seconds and said, "Don't you just like naive children?"
Bai Xiao was speechless. Yu Shaoting was often unreasonable at this time. After a while, she raised her head to speak, but he suddenly bent his head, and the familiar masculine smell hit her. Her brain buzzed, she did not expect him to be so casual.
Why, he actually kissed her at the door of the small living room, the door of the Yu family's small living room!
"Hmm~" Bai Xiao was afraid of being seen, so she put her hands on his shoulders and tried to push him away.
The harder she struggled, the more passionate he became. He pried open her teeth. The man's thin but strong lips pressed against hers. His tongue penetrated her mouth and tangled with hers.
The numbing sensory stimulation made her lose herself for a moment, and her hands instinctively grabbed his shirt.
Yu Shaoting held the back of Bai Xiao's head with one hand and held her waist with the other. His narrow eyes looked at Yu Zhongxiao who had just come downstairs to call someone.
"..." Yu Zhongxiao opened his mouth, but in the end no sound came out, and he turned around and went back.
——————————
A cough sounded nearby.
From the corner of his eye, Bai Xiao caught sight of Mrs. Yu standing at the top of the stairs, and immediately pushed Yu Shaoting, who let go of her.
Unlike Bai Xiao's embarrassment when he was caught on the spot, Yu Shaoting's expression did not change, and he was as calm as he wanted.
Mrs. Yu glanced at Bai Xiaoyan's red cheeks with a complex expression. She knew at a glance that she was forced by her son. She went downstairs and heard Bai Xiao calling her "aunt". The old lady said yes and left the room.
Looking at the helpers who were still busy washing dishes in the yard, the old lady sighed heavily.
Thinking of what the eldest daughter-in-law had just said upstairs, begging her to persuade her mistress, Mrs. Yu also felt sad. What a pity for the hearts of parents in the world!
——————————
Yu Shaoting took the mobile phone and went outside to answer the call. Bai Xiao covered her still red cheeks, turned around and saw Mrs. Yu again: "Auntie."
"Um... I asked Aunt Zhang to make white fungus and red dates. Can I serve you some?"
Bai Xiao hurriedly said: "No, I'm not hungry."
"Then just eat something with me." Old Mrs. Yu said again.
Bai Xiao nodded. She saw that Mrs. Yu might have something to say to her, so she couldn't help but glance at the door. Yu Shaoting hadn't come back yet.
Sitting in the living room, Bai Xiao didn't touch the white fungus and red dates. The old lady took two bites but they tasted the same.
"Xiaoxiao, as for me, I have a few words to say to you..."
"It just so happens that we also have something to say to mom." Yu Shaoting's voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Mrs. Yu.
Mrs. Yu saw Yu Shaoting walking over: "You made the call so soon?"
Just as Bai Xiao was about to turn around, Yu Shaoting had already sat down next to her. He held her hand, as if he didn't see the old lady's guilty conscience, and said, "I brought Bai Xiao here mainly to see my father, but now I feel a little...
I shouldn’t hide things from mom anymore.”
"What...what happened?"
Bai Xiao probably knew what he wanted to say, so she couldn't help but squeeze his hand.
Yu Shaoting looked at Mrs. Yu, his throat rolled, and then he said, "Actually, Bai Xiao is Jing Xi's biological mother."
The spoon in Mrs. Yu's hand fell on the coffee table. She couldn't help herself. She pointed at Bai Xiao and said something with her tongue tied: "She...she?"
Bai Xiao spoke up at the right time: "I'm sorry, aunt, for keeping this secret from you for so long."
When Yu Zhongxiao came down from upstairs, he saw his mother walking around in the living room, mumbling something as if she had been stimulated by something.
Seeing him, Mrs. Yu immediately asked: "Second brother, where is your father?"
"...In the study." Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Yu had already hurried upstairs.
Not long after, Yu Zhanming's angry roar came from the study: "I'm talking about you old woman, I haven't said a word yet, what are you yelling about!"
The door of the study room opened, and Mrs. Yu came out, stood at the door and said to the inside: "Yu Zhanming, I leave my words here. Don't come and tell me your big ideas. I already have no son, and I can't let my grandson have no more."
Mom, you have to figure it out yourself!"
The door of the small bedroom next to her opened, and Yu Jingxi came out in her pajamas, rubbing her groggy eyes. When she saw Mrs. Yu, she softly called her grandma.
Mrs. Yu's heart was about to burst, and she became more determined in her thoughts.
The movement in the study also alarmed Su Manrong, who was waiting for news about the old lady in the bedroom. Seeing the old lady's eyes red, she hurriedly asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Old Mrs. Yu hugged Yu Jingxi, who looked confused, and said repeatedly: "My dear grandson... why is his life so miserable!"
Su Manrong seemed to have predicted something, and she panicked: "Mom, you——"
Bai Xiao and Yu Shaoting had already come upstairs. Mrs. Yu looked at the couple, gritted her teeth and said to Su Manrong: "Manrong, Mom can't help you."
Su Manrong suddenly understood when she saw Bai Xiao and Yu Shaoting standing together. She also saw Mrs. Yu hugging Yu Jingxi with such distress. She swayed and would have fallen to the ground if Yu Zhongxiao hadn't caught her quickly with his eyes and hands.
Authentic: "Mom, you can't be impulsive!"
"Then what does sister-in-law think of being calm?" Yu Shaoting said coldly: "Let their mother and son be separated from each other and let our family of three never be reunited?"
Su Manrong pursed her lips, and Mrs. Yu wiped her tears and said, "Choose a day to bring my grandma over, and let's meet her two families!"
When Yu Zhanming heard what Mrs. Yu said, he rushed out: "You old woman, what on earth do you want to do!"
"What can I do? My grandson has found his mother and my son is going to have a wife. Can't I meet my in-laws?"
Yu Zhanming knew that his wife had such a confusing personality, so he didn't tell her that Bai Xiao was Jing Xi's mother. If he had told her earlier, what he came back to attend today might not be his granddaughter's engagement party, but his granddaughter's engagement party.
It's her youngest son's wedding banquet, what can't this old woman do?!
"If you don't think about it carefully, is this matter as simple as you think?"
"I don't care, you have to agree even if you don't agree. I want Bai Xiao as my daughter-in-law!" Old Mrs. Yu stood firm.
Yu Zhanming sighed and softened his voice: "Huizhi, we have to discuss this matter in the long run. You see, there are a lot involved..."
"Yes," Su Manrong also advised: "Mom, dad is right..."
Bai Xiao looked at the Yu family in a mess and couldn't get a word in, but Yu Shaoting suddenly said: "Jing Xi, come here."
Yu Jingxi fell asleep and rolled his eyes, not knowing what was going on. When he heard his father calling him, he broke away from the old lady's arms and ran to Yu Shaoting. Bai Xiao saw that he was not wearing a coat and hugged him out of fear that he would be cold.
Standing up, the little guy skillfully wrapped his arms around Bai Xiao's neck and pressed his little face against Bai Xiao's neck.
"Today was a good day for Yiwei. I didn't want it to end up like this." Yu Shaoting glanced at Su Manrong indifferently, "But since everything has been revealed now, I won't hide anything anymore, and Jing Xi will also tell him.
, since dad objects, I won’t force you, let’s go first.”
"You fart! When did I say I objected?" Yu Zhanming yelled back on the spot. You bastard, you actually insulted him in front of your grandson!
"Dad!" Su Manrong was anxious.
Mrs. Yu had already taken the little guy's coat from Yu Jingxi's room: "Mistress, I'll stay at your place tonight."
"Jiang Huizhi!" Yu Zhanming became even more angry when he saw the old lady who was planning to "run away from home".
Mrs. Yu glared at Chief of General Staff Yu: "It's useless if you call my mother's name! Yu Zhanming, I'll be back when you nod!"
——————————
Mrs. Yu was an action person, so she quickly packed a suitcase and left the Yu family with Yu Shaoting and the others.
Yu Zhanming also had a hot temper. He shouted from the window on the second floor: "If you have the guts, don't come back for the rest of your life!" After shouting, he locked himself in the study.
Su Manrong looked very sad and rubbed her temples. Yu Zhongxiao quickly supported her: "Sister-in-law, please go back to your room and rest for a while."
"Second uncle, can you please advise my younger uncle?" Su Manrong grabbed Yu Zhongxiao's hand as if grasping the last life-saving straw.
"It's not that I don't help my sister-in-law. My mistress has never called me second brother seriously since she was five years old, so how can she listen to my advice?"
"..." Su Manrong could only say: "Then you advise mom to calm down."
Yu Zhongxiao frowned slightly: "Actually...if my parents don't mind, there is no need for my sister-in-law to be so opposed to the mistress and Miss Bai."
Su Manrong shook her head and said to herself: "You don't understand... I am doing it for Xiaoxiao's good, they are not suitable..."
——————————
Su Manrong returned to the bedroom, took the photo frame from the cabinet, and carefully touched the man in military uniform in the photo with her fingers.
Zhengdong, what should I do now? It would be great if you were still by my side...
After staring at the photo for a long time, Su Manrong took a deep breath, then got up and went to the study to find Yu Zhanming.
Hearing the knock on the door, Yu Zhanming put the photos of his eldest son and grandson into the drawer, and then said: "Come in."
"Dad." Su Manrong stopped talking.
Yu Zhanming walked to the window and stood for a long time. He turned around and said, "Find a time and bring your mother over."
"Dad!" Su Manrong was excited, "That's not what you just said!"
"Things have come to this point, do you think there is a better way to solve it?" Yu Zhanming became more and more angry as he spoke: "You have done these terrible things yourself, Zhengdong is confused, haven't you sobered up in all these years? What if?
If you had taken the child home earlier, would it have caused this situation today?"
Su Manrong burst into tears, covered her mouth and sobbed: "Dad, I was wrong..."
"It's too late now that I know I was wrong!" The last two words were dissolved into a helpless sigh.
——————————
Unlike the Yu family, at the InterContinental Hotel where the Pei family held their engagement party, relatives and friends arrived one after another.
Old Mrs. Pei changed into a bright red and festive Tang suit, leaning on crutches and being supported by her mother, she greeted the guests at the door of the hotel.
Different from the simple and low-key style of the Yu family, when Mrs. Pei opened the wedding invitation, she invited many business celebrities, whether they knew them or not. When the other parties learned that Pei Qiyou was engaged to be the granddaughter of Yu Zhanming, they basically smiled and said that they would definitely come and sell it.
Of course it’s Yu Zhanming’s face.
Seeing the guests passing by with generous gifts, Mrs. Pei had never felt so proud in her life!
Mother Pei's face almost froze with laughter. Seeing that Mrs. Pei didn't mean to leave yet, she said, "Mom, should we go and have a look at Yiwei's place?"
"That's right, why did you forget about me, your granddaughter-in-law?" Mrs. Pei was always in high spirits during happy events, and she had long forgotten how angry she was at Yu's house at noon.
As soon as the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law entered the elevator, Pei's mother's cell phone rang. It was the call from the Yu family.
"Can't come?" Mother Pei's smile faltered, "Didn't I say that everyone would come at noon? Why...that's it. Okay, I understand..."
