Chapter 070: [The Eve of the Dinner Party]
Qin Xuejuan did not hesitate, raised her hand and pushed open the door, and saw the old man sitting in the room wearing reading glasses reading a newspaper.
This person is completely an old man. He is hunched over, has silver hair, and his face is full of wrinkles. He only has a little energy in his eyes.
"Grandpa!" Qin Xuejuan quickly stepped forward and squatted down in front of the old man.
Qin Siyuan's hearing was still fine. When he saw Qin Xuejuan in front of him, he seemed to be stunned for a long time.
"Xiaojuan?" The old man's tone was uncertain.
"Well, yes, it's me, grandpa, I'm back to see you." Qin Xuejuan's tears suddenly fell. This old man was the one she loved and respected the most in the Qin family.
Qin Siyuan raised his hand and stroked Qin Xuejuan's head, his old eyes slightly moist, "Okay, it's good to come back, it's good to come back."
After a simple greeting from the grandparents and grandchildren, Qin Xuejuan asked Xu Jianjun and his daughter to come forward.
"Grandpa, this is your grandson-in-law Xu Jianjun, this is my daughter Xu Ning."
"Hello Grandpa." Xu Jianjun stepped forward.
Xu Ning didn't even silence, so he stepped forward and shouted "Great Grandpa", and then the old man pulled him to sit down.
"Okay, okay..." The old man nodded in a series of good news.
Xu Ning also realized that the old man really did not reject their father and daughter, and felt a little better.
In the following time, the father and daughter sat next to them, listening to Qin Xuejuan and Qin Siyuan's conversation. During this period, they would reply quietly when the old man asked about it.
"The family will hold a welcome banquet for you tomorrow night." Qin Siyuan muttered, "Grandpa and you go back."
Qin Xuejuan did not agree immediately, "I have to ask the doctor before I talk about this. You can't just go back. Besides, the banquet is so noisy, you don't like it either. At worst, I just come to see you every day."
"That's what you said."
"Yes, I said." Qin Xuejuan nodded quickly as if coaxing a child.
After getting Qin Xuejuan's guarantee, the old man did not continue to persist. On the one hand, he did not like the noisy scenes of young people, and most importantly, his body really couldn't stand the tossing.
In the office of the boss of Shijie Textile in Magic City, a man in his thirties was approving documents behind his desk.
"Hey, hello." The next moment, the big brother like a brick on the table rang out.
"Tang Chen, it's me."
When Tang Chen heard the other party's voice, his expression suddenly relaxed. He put down the signature pen in his hand and leaned lazily on the boss' chair, "What's the matter with me?"
"You have a Qin family over there. Do you know Qin Yaokang?"
"I'm still a little capable, I live in the same community as me." Tang Chen was a little surprised, "What do you want to do?"
The other party's identity is not low, and he is in the capital. He suddenly called the Qin family in the Demon City, which made him care a little. Could it be that the Qin family has something worth paying attention to?
"I didn't do anything, my old man asked me to do a little favor." The other party then said the matter.
But Tang Chen became more and more surprised the more he heard it. The other party had no relationship with the Qin family. This was just someone who asked him to do so. The other party didn't say anything, and Tang Chen didn't ask.
He has a good personal relationship with the other party, but he never involves his respective work areas.
However, he received the invitation from the Qin family’s dinner. He had thought that he would not go before, but now he is leaving.
"I understand, I will go." Tang Chen agreed to the other party.
In the room, Qin Xiang was rummaging through boxes and cabinets in her cloakroom, and she was considering which piece of clothing she wanted to give to Xu Ning.
She has a lot of clothes, and some of them have never worn them after buying them. The most important thing is that the prices of these clothes are not cheap.
After picking and choosing, Qin Xiang discovered a piece of clothing that satisfies her. She folded it and stuffed it into a paper bag next to her.
In fact, she really likes Xu Ning? Of course not.
On the contrary, she was very disliked by the father and daughter, including that aunt.
Qin Xiang has rarely heard of this aunt since she can remember. Her mother told her that Qin Xuejuan ran away from home before she was born and went to the countryside with the large army. So when it comes to her relationship with this aunt, it can be said that she has no feelings for her at all.
It is precisely because of this that she looked down on the family of three.
What is the identity of the Qin family? Her friends are all girls with demons and good reputations. If these friends knew that she had such a country relative, she would definitely be ridiculed by them. It would be strange if Qin Xiang could like it.
Of course, she also felt that her aunt was completely self-destructive. With such a background, she couldn't find any kind of family. She actually married a countryman so ignorantly. Isn't this awkward person?
So at night, their family wanted to use the Qin family's banquet to make everyone recognize their identities. How could Qin Xiang agree?
Looking down at the paper bag in her hand, a successful smile appeared on the corner of her lips.
In her heart, Xu Ning's family came to take advantage of their Qin family. A countryman was not moved when he saw the Qin family's wealth? She absolutely did not believe it.
In the afternoon of that day, people with ulterior motives began to prepare one after another, and tonight's dinner was destined not to be spent safely.
In Xu Ning's room upstairs, Qin Xiang gave the clothes he brought to Xu Ning with a passionate look on his face.
"I picked one for you from a bunch of clothes. I haven't worn it yet. Do you like it?" As she said this, she didn't agree. Even if she bought the clothes she put on the shelf, it must be something Xu Ning had never seen before. How could she still hate it?
Sure enough, Xu Ning took the dress, touched the smooth fabric, and smiled and said, "Thank you, Sister Qin Xiang, I like it very much."
"Just like it. I'll change it for you later. You are the protagonists tonight."
Xu Ning smiled and said nothing.
At six o'clock in the evening, the Qin family's hall was sorted out, and all kinds of flowing food were brought out from the kitchen. At this time, friends who had been with the Qin family had arrived in advance.
The dinner starts at 7 o'clock, and this time comes, but you can chat with each other while there are fewer people.
Xu Ning didn't know what her parents were, and she didn't have to worry about it. However, Qin Xiang had already enthusiastically urged her to change her clothes.
She really didn't notice Qin Xiang's malice towards her. After all, with Xu Ning's psychological age, Qin Xiang is still a child, and what extraordinary things can a child do.
Although I had a miserable life in my previous life, I still don’t want to always be worried about everyone I see.
The clothes are half-length lantern-sleeved dresses, light green in color, exuding a sense of elegance.
Xu Ning's clothes are quite fit, but the waist is a bit loose, but fortunately there is a dark belt tied.
"You look very nice in this dress." Qin Xiang looked at Xu Ning, feeling sad and uncomfortable, but she still wanted to praise her with a smile, so she was so angry.
"The clothes are beautiful." Xu Ning stood in front of the mirror and looked at it, then untied his hair and combed it again.
