Jiang Chen didn't follow Lin Baobao to meet her parents in the end, and Lin Baobao answered a phone call, and finally had to leave first, but seeing Lin Baobao so reluctant, heartbroken, and alive was abandoned by a negative man, it didn't make Jiang Chen feel speechless.

Around eight o'clock in the evening, the Lan family, in Lan Xiu's boudoir.

Lan Xiu has been working for several years, especially after being transferred to Yilan City, because of his busy work and lack of holidays, here in the capital, except for the New Year and a few important festivals, he rarely goes home at ordinary times.

But despite this, this room is still kept, and it is cleaned twice a week, but it is still clean.

Lan Xiu had dinner and went back to his room.

After watching TV for a while, I was stunned for a while, and before I knew it, it was eight o'clock, Lan Xiu picked up her mobile phone and looked at the time, and was about to take a shower, when she heard a knock on the door, and then, a middle-aged woman with beautiful eyebrows walked in from outside.

"Mom. Seeing the middle-aged woman walk in, Lan Xiu said hello, this middle-aged woman was Lan Xiu's mother, Chen Yun.

"Xiuxiu, you haven't taken a shower yet. Chen Yun looked at Lan Xiu and said.

"I'll go wash it in a minute. Lan Xiu then said.

"Well, I've got two sets of clothes for you, and you'll change into them after a shower and see which one suits you. Chen Yun pointed to the clothes she had brought.

"Mom, what are you doing with the clothes you prepared for me?" Lan Xiu asked strangely.

"You girl, have you forgotten what day tomorrow is?" Chen Yun's tone was a little blameful, she said: "Xiuxiu, tomorrow is the birthday of the old man of the Wu family, you want to go to the birthday banquet with us, our Lan family, although it is not a big family, but this is the most basic etiquette, it is also indispensable, otherwise, people will think that the daughter of our Lan family is uneducated." ”

"Mom, you're thinking too much. Lan Xiu said helplessly.

The old man of the Wu family, Lan Xiu, knows about tomorrow's birthday, and this is what she did when she was deceived into returning to the capital this time.

But when it comes to dressing up, Lan Xiu thinks that he can't do it anyway.

The woman is the one who pleases herself, and the person she wants to please is always Jiang Chen.

As for the fact that if you have not dressed up, you are considered uneducated, then let others think of it.

"Xiuxiu, it's not that Mom thinks too much, it's that you think too little, you are going to enter the door of the Wu family in the future, if this first impression is not good, how will you live in the future?" Chen Yun said worriedly.

"Mom, don't say it. Listening to Chen Yun's words, the more unreliable he became, Lan Xiu had to interrupt Chen Yun's words bluntly.

"Xiuxiu, Mom is also for your own good, don't blame Mom for being too talkative. Chen Yun was a little unhappy when she saw Lan Xiu, so she had to say.

"Mom, I'm a little tired and want to rest early, you can go back first. Lan Xiu said helplessly.

"Okay, it's good to rest early, take care of your spirits, and your complexion will be good...... But Xiuxiu, I'll put the clothes here, after you take a shower, you must wear them and try them. Chen Yun chattered, left her clothes, and went out.

Looking at the clothes, Lan Xiu had a slight headache, she understood that Chen Yun was indeed for her good.

However, for her good, it doesn't mean that that the good is what she wants.

Lan Xiu just went to take a shower, but Lan Xiu didn't try on clothes, she had a plan in her heart...... Grandpa said that Old Man Wu's birthday banquet was a test for Yu Jiangchen.

But in Lan Xiu's view, this test is more about herself.

……

Old man Wu celebrated his 80th birthday, and the birthday banquet was held at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse.

The Wu family is prosperous, and the old man Wu, as the helmsman of the Wu family, is shrouded in a variety of halos, and his life experience is very legendary.

The birthday banquet started at half past seven in the evening, but early in the morning, the state guesthouse was locked down and martial law, and as time passed, the guests entered one after another.

The Wu family has already arranged for someone to pick up guests at the door, and the person who picks up the guests is Wu Qinkun, the son of the Wu family, in addition to Wu Qinkun, there are also two juniors of the Wu family, one of whom is Wu Jingrong, who has dealt with Jiang Chen once.

The Lan family's convoy arrived at about five o'clock.

The car door opened, Lan Xiu got out of the car first, and helped Old Man Lan get out of the car.

Subsequently, Chen Yun and a middle-aged man with eyebrows somewhat similar to Lan Xiu got out of the car, and the middle-aged man was Lan Xiu's father, Lan Zhengfeng.

"Old Man Lan, Brother Lan. Seeing the people of the Lan family getting out of the car, Wu Qinkun stepped forward and greeted him, greeting him with a smile on his face.

At the end, Wu Qinkun glanced at Lan Xiu and said with a smile: "Miss Lan Xiu is also here, let's go in." ”

Lan Xiu was a little uncomfortable with Wu Qinkun's smile, and always felt that this kind of smile looked too fake and hypocritical.

Because Lan Xiu knew very well that with Wu Qinkun's identity, there was no need to be so polite to the people of their Lan family, on the contrary, the Lan family should be polite to Wu Qinkun.

Old Man Lan nodded, didn't say anything, and with Lan Xiu's support, he took Lan Zhengfeng and Chen Yun inside.

When I entered the State Guesthouse, there were already a lot of people inside.

The Wu family is not an ordinary family, and the guests who come here are naturally either rich or expensive, this is not just as simple as a birthday banquet, but more like a feast of rights.

"Sister Lan Xiu. Suddenly, a delicate voice sounded, and I saw a fiery red shadow, jumping up, appeared in front of Lan Xiu, it was Wu Qingya.

"Elegant. Lan Xiu said hello to Wu Qingya.

"Sister Lan Xiu, you are really beautiful today. Wu Qingya said with a grin.

"Don't you have to entertain guests?" Lan Xiu diverted the topic.

She didn't wear the clothes that Chen Yun bought for her, so before going out today, Chen Yun was full of complaints, but after all, there was nothing she could do, so she could only let her wear her own clothes.

Wu Qingya was wearing a festive outfit, Lan Xiu's clothes were more like work clothes, Lan Xiu didn't dress up or anything, and she didn't even wear a decent piece of jewelry on her body.

In this way, talking about clothing will only make the topic awkward and boring, and Lan Xiu naturally doesn't want to talk about it more.

"I'm not busy, I'm just here to eat and drink. Wu Qingya was still smiling, and only then did she seem to see Chen Yun and said, "Auntie, you are so beautiful today." ”

Chen Yun smiled and said, "The mouth is so sweet." ”

"Auntie, I'm not lying, you and Sister Lan Xiu are standing together, just like sisters. Wu Qingya said seriously, naturally, it made Chen Yun's happy mouth even more closed.

The interior of the State Guesthouse is very lively, those who know or don't know each other, they are all greeting in twos and threes, Old Man Lan has an object to talk about, and Lan Xiu was pulled aside by Wu Qingya.

"Sister Lan Xiu, I originally thought that you wouldn't come today. Wu Qingya said.

"I'm in the capital, so I'll naturally come. Lan Xiu said a little absent-mindedly.

"Sister Lan Xiu, why don't I think you're too happy. Wu Qingya said again.

"No, I don't. Lan Xiu smiled.

"Sister Lan Xiu, you look so good when you smile, no wonder my brother likes you so much. Wu Qingya blinked.

As she spoke, Wu Qingya suddenly sighed and said: "It's just that my brother is not in good health now, and he is still living in a nursing home, so he can't come to his grandfather's birthday banquet, you don't know, because of this, grandpa is a lot older, and the reason why he will hold a birthday banquet this time is to be happy." ”

"The old man has a heart. Lan Xiu said simply.

Lan Xiu knew that Wu Menghua's matter was Jiang Chen's hands and feet, but it was impossible for Lan Xiu to talk to Wu Qingya about this kind of thing.

"Grandpa just has a heart, I just don't know, Sister Lan Xiu, are you also the person with a heart, anyway, grandpa will be very happy when he sees Sister Lan Xiu you. Wu Qingya said.

Lan Xiu nodded, and said no more.

Time passed imperceptibly, and around seven twenty, Old Man Wu finally appeared.

It was an old man with a clear appearance, silver hair, but his spirit was quite strong, and his speech was even louder, and then, at half past seven, the birthday banquet began on time.

After the emcee's congratulatory speech, all the guests got up one after another and toasted to Mr. Wu, who raised his glass, gestured slightly to the four directions, and drank a small half glass.

"Grandpa, I wish you happiness like the East China Sea, longevity than Nanshan, every year has today, and every year has today. Wu Qingya raised her glass and said very mischievously.

"Good. Old Man Wu smiled heartily.

Wu Qingya just drank the wine in the cup and said, "Grandpa, if you drink less wine, you won't drink this glass of wine, but if Sister Lan Xiu toasts, you must drink it." ”

While speaking, Wu Qingya happily beckoned to Lan Xiu's table, invisibly, attracting everyone's eyes to Lan Xiu.

Lan Xiu came to attend Old Man Wu's birthday banquet today, her original intention was to go through the motions, she didn't expect that Wu Qingya would make such a move.

Seeing such a gaze, they all looked at him, Lan Xiu couldn't help but feel helpless, but he could only get up and walk over.

"Old man, I toast you and hope you are in good health. Lan Xiu said bluntly.

"You're Lan Xiu? I've heard of you. Old Man Wu looked at Lan Xiu and said slowly.

Lan Xiu nodded lightly, and listened to the old man Wu say again: "Menghua went to Yilan City some time ago, and after coming back, he fell ill, and now he is still lying in bed, what do you think about this?"

"I'm sorry. Lan Xiu said.

"What I asked was what you thought of Menghua. Old Man Wu shook his head, obviously not satisfied with Lan Xiu's answer.

Lan Xiu was stunned, and muttered how to answer, but heard Wu Qingya say with a big grin: "Grandpa, you don't know that my brother likes Sister Lan Xiu, you are now asking Sister Lan Xiu what she thinks of her brother, wouldn't you force Sister Lan Xiu to confess to her brother, where is there such a thing as you." ”

"I just asked her if she likes Menghua. His eyes narrowed slightly, and Old Man Wu said noncommittally.
