Zhou Quan looked at Zhou Jiujiang and said tearfully:
"You hit me? You hit me, I'm your son! You didn't hit the person who hurt your son, but you hit me!!!"
Zhou Quan felt aggrieved.
Ever since he was a child, his father had never treated him like this.
Of course Zhou Jiujiang felt distressed.
However, without attacking Zhou Quan, there would be no way to control today's situation.
Pointing at Xia Xiaoyu, Zhou Jiujiang said to Zhou Quan:
"He is a guest of our Zhou family! He is a specially invited guest by Mr. Zhou on Wednesday. I am here to take him to the island!"
It turns out that Mr. Xia Xiaoyu has not arrived for a long time on Wednesday.
He didn't dare to take out his birthday present either.
Let Zhou Jiujiang come over and take a look, and send a yacht to pick up Xia Xiaoyu alone.
I heard that Xia Xiaoyu turned out to be the distinguished guest invited by Master Zhou.
The guests who were scolding him just now all shut up.
Although Zhou Quan was angry, he did not dare to say anything anymore.
Zhou Jiujiang deserves to be known as the smiling fox.
Even if Xia Xiaoyu beat his son again.
Still smiling, he made an invitation gesture to Xia Xiaoyu and said:
"Mr. Xia, please get on the yacht. The third young master is waiting for you..."
Xia Xiaoyu doesn't talk nonsense either.
Follow Zhou Jiujiang and get on the boat directly.
Although the island in the middle of the lake was taken over by the Zhou family.
But the Zhou family still divided the island in the middle of the lake into three areas.
According to the different status of the guests who came to celebrate the birthday, they were divided.
The first area is for some guests who want to curry favor with the Zhou family.
These people were all received by servants of the Zhou family.
The second area consists of people who are more or less related to the Zhou family.
This group of people will be received by the Zhou family.
You know, the guests in these two areas.
But not even the shadow of the old lady could be seen.
And the last area.
It is the center area of the island.
All the guests here are rich or noble.
All of them are either business leaders or tycoons in various industries.
Of course, some officials are indispensable.
Xia Xiaoyu, accompanied by Zhou Jiujiang, went directly to the center of the island.
As soon as I arrived, I saw Master Zhou coming over in a hurry.
Looking at Xia Xiaoyu, he couldn't help complaining:
"Why did you come? If you didn't come, I wouldn't dare to give you my birthday gift!"
Xia Xiaoyu chuckled, turned to look at Zhou Jiujiang, and said calmly:
"I was stopped by his son Zhou Quan and said that I was not worthy of attending Mrs. Zhou's birthday party!"
Xia Xiaoyu said this on purpose.
He just wanted to embarrass Zhou Jiujiang.
Sure enough, Xia Xiaoyu's words fell silent.
Zhou Jiujiang looked embarrassed.
Mr. Zhou Zhou even pointed angrily at Zhou Jiujiang and said:
"Steward Zhou, that son of yours really needs to be disciplined! I've heard a long time ago that he is doing evil outside under the banner of the Zhou family. Let me tell you, if the old lady knows about these things, you will look good on him!"
With that said, Mr. Zhou took Xia Xiaoyu with him.
Directly entered Guanhu Residence.
The so-called Lake View House.
It is the largest and most luxurious building on the island in the center of the lake.
Sitting in the European-style courtyard, you can clearly appreciate the scenery of the lake and mountains of the island in the middle of the lake.
Upon entering Guanhu Residence.
I saw many people standing in the huge courtyard.
Among them, there are many familiar faces to Xia Xiaoyu.
Like the old man from the enemy family and Qiu Yuchen.
There are also flowers from the Hua family, Mo Ran.
Although the nine major families are not in harmony.
But when Mrs. Zhou celebrated her birthday, people from all the major families came to congratulate her.
All five children of the Zhou family were present.
Just listen to eldest sister Zhou Yuelan say directly:
"Today is the birthday of our old lady. As usual, the five of us brothers and sisters should present the birthday gifts prepared for the old lady first!"
Gifts from the children of the Zhou family are an essential part of Mrs. Zhou's birthday party.
The reason is very simple. First, it makes the old lady happy.
The second is to show off to all the guests how powerful the Zhou family is.
Therefore, there are five brothers and sisters.
It can be said that I racked my brains for the old lady’s birthday gift.
As soon as Zhou Yuelan finished speaking, she first said to the assistant beside her:
"I am the eldest sister, so let me go first. Assistant Zhang, please bring up the birthday gift I prepared for the old lady..."
The assistant agreed.
Then, I saw four graceful hostesses walking up carrying a gift box about one meter long.
The gift box is also covered with a layer of red cloth.
Zhou Yuelan walked to the gift box.
She said directly to Mrs. Zhou:
"Mom, the birthday gift I prepared for you this year is beyond your imagination. I started preparing it half a year in advance..."
Mrs. Zhou is thin and not tall.
When Zhou Yuelan said this, she pursed her lips and smiled:
"My five children love to show off. Come on, open it up and let me and everyone take a look..."
Zhou Yuelan smiled proudly.
She slowly opened the red cloth.
"oh!"
As soon as the red cloth was lifted, everyone couldn't help but exclaimed.
Even Mrs. Zhou stood up immediately.
She said to the servant serving her next to her:
"Quick, help me over and take a look!"
It turned out that Zhou Yuelan gave it to her mother.
It turned out to be a one-meter-tall golden statue.
The background of the group portrait is a hill.
At the top of the hill is the Queen Mother sitting on it.
Below, there are four floors.
Twenty-five gods stand on both sides.
Some of these gods hold fairy peaches in their hands.
Some are holding lotus leaves.
Everyone congratulated the Queen Mother on her birthday.
When she saw this gift, Mrs. Zhou was extremely happy.
Zhou Yuelan explained on the side:
"Mom, this gold sculpture is an imitation of the clay sculpture that Wuxi officials presented to Empress Dowager Cixi on her birthday. However, their clay sculpture is made of clay. The birthday gift I give you is made of pure gold. Mom, you
It is even higher than the Empress Dowager Cixi back then..."
Zhou Yuelan has a sharp tongue.
The coaxed old lady felt happy for a while.
As soon as Zhou Yuelan's gifts were delivered.
In order of age.
Several other brothers and sisters in the Zhou family.
They also presented birthday gifts one after another.
These birthday gifts are basically rare treasures.
Take out any one and it's worth over ten million.
This made all the guests around him envious.
Mrs. Zhou was even more happy and couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.
The birthday gifts for several people have already been taken out.
Only Mr. Zhou has not moved yet.
Zhou Yuelan glanced at him and asked dissatisfiedly:
"Third brother, where is your gift? Why haven't you taken it out yet?"
Zhou Yuelan finished speaking.
Her husband, Jia Benxi, then said:
"Third brother, why are you always so naughty and like a girl? Hurry up and take out the gift and show it to the old lady so we can have dinner!"
This Jia Benxi is the eighth Jia family among the nine major families.
He is a martial arts practitioner and has little education.
There is no hesitation in speaking.
It’s not that Master Zhou doesn’t want to take it out.
Just looking at the birthday gifts of my brothers and sisters, they are both expensive and innovative.
And mine is just a second-hand necklace.
Although Xia Xiaoyu said that the old lady would definitely like it.
But he still didn't know what to do, and he didn't dare to take it out. (To be continued)
