Jiangnan Province, Sucheng, Sang Mansion.

On the 80th birthday of Mrs. Sang Mansion’s banquet hall was filled with Sang Family relatives and friends who came to celebrate her birthday, saying auspicious words and offering their own gifts.

The Sang family is a second-rate family in Sucheng. Although it is not as good as the top wealthy families like the Xiao family, Gu family, and Lan family, it also has a wealthy family and is well-known in Sucheng.

Everyone's gift was presented, and Ling Tianchen came late with a pair of calligraphy and paintings.

Ling Tianchen attracted everyone's attention as soon as he entered the door, not because Ling Tianchen's status is so high and how outstanding he is. On the contrary, Ling Tianchen, as a son-in-law, has an awkward position in the Sang family. He is a famous coward and idle person in Sucheng.

Two and a half years ago, Old Master Sang brought Ling Tianchen, who was thin and sick, back to Sang Mansion. Despite the opposition of Old Mrs. Sang, he announced that he would recruit Ling Tianchen as the Sang family's son-in-law and let his granddaughter Sang Yuxi and Ling Tianchen marry.

Sang Yuxi's mother broke up with the Sang family because of this, but it was still useless.

Old Master Sang's actions shocked the earth. The hasty and simple wedding sensation throughout Sucheng and made the Sang family a joke that made the upper class of Sucheng.

Sang Yuxi, the most famous beauty in Sucheng, was also criticized for marrying a sick and cowardly and suffered all the grievances.

Sang Yuxi knew that since it was grandpa’s decision, he could only accept his fate. This was the sorrow of these wealthy women.

In order to heal the wounds in his heart and to raise his head in front of others, Sang Yuxi devoted himself to work day and night.

Failed to love and proud to workplace.

Over the past two and a half years, Sang Yuxi has been promoted from the deputy general manager of a small company outside the family to the high position of general manager of the Sang Group Corporation, which surprised the upper class of Sucheng.

Two years ago, Old Master Sang passed away, and on his deathbed, Sang Yuxi vowed not to leave Ling Tianchen in this life. However, Sang Yuxi asked about Ling Tianchen's life experience, the old master did not reveal a single word, and it has since become the biggest mystery of the Sang family.

Although she was not satisfied with her marriage, Sang Yuxi abides by her oath to her grandfather and did not divorce Ling Tianchen because of the forced force of Mrs. Sang and other family members.

When Mr. Sang was alive, although the Sang family looked down on Ling Tianchen, they only discussed it behind their backs and did not dare to do too much on the surface. After the old man passed away, Mrs. Sang had no good expression on this son-in-law who delayed his precious granddaughter's future.

The children and grandchildren of the Sang family even sarcastically and sarcastically at Ling Tianchen, who had defiled the reputation of the Sang family, spoke ill of him, wishing to beat him up and drive him out.

The wedding was too hasty two years ago, and some relatives from other places in the Sang family didn't have time to come to attend, so this was the first time most people saw Ling Tianchen, a famous coward.

"So he is Ling Tianchen. He looks pretty good. Why is he willing to be the Sang family's son-in-law?"

"What's the use of being good-looking? It's weak and sick. It's an embroidered pillow. It's neither awakened, nor is it a business item, it's just a person who eats a good meal!"

"What a pity this is a good body, alas..."

Everyone whispered.

Every time at this time, Sang Yuxi had to pretend not to hear everyone's comments about Ling Tianchen, and sighed in the depths of his heart.

Seeing Ling Tianchen, Sang Yuxi stood up and took his arm, with a slight smile on his face, and he seemed to be very intimate with Ling Tianchen.

In front of outsiders, Sang Yuxi and Ling Tianchen have always shown love between husband and wife and have maintained great respect for Ling Tianchen.

"How are the gifts ready?"

Sang Yuxi was handling emergency affairs in the company that day and had no time to buy gifts, so he asked Ling Tianchen.

Sang Yuxi also had the idea of ​​letting Ling Tianchen show his face in front of the family. After all, Ling Tianchen is her nominal husband, and she didn't want her husband to be called a ignorant coward.

Ling Tianchen shook the calligraphy and paintings in his hand and said to Sang Yuxi: "Don't worry!"

"Ling Tianchen, this is the gift you prepared for grandma. You don't even have a packaging. You can't buy it at a street stall, right?" Sang Zijian looked at the calligraphy and paintings in Ling Tianchen's hand with a contempt.

Seeing Ling Tianchen ignore him, Sang Zijian felt bored and pointed his muzzle at Sang Yuxi: "Sang Yuxi, grandma, today's 80th birthday, would you let this waste prepare a gift? This is too perfunctory!"

Sang Zijian is the eldest grandson of the Sang family. He has always been regarded as the leader of the Sang family and the heir to the Sang family group. He is most hostile to Sang Yuxi, who has been in office in the past two years.

"Look at this red coral. I specially transported it overseas. Do you know how much it costs? One million and 800,000." There were a wide variety of gifts on the table in front of the old lady, and a fiery red coral tree stood out from the crowd. Sang Zijian showed off proudly.

"Good thing!" On such occasions, Ling Tianchen has always followed Sang Yuxi's teachings and is very proud of his words.

Seeing Ling Tianchen being scolded by Sang Zijian in front of everyone, he didn't dare to say anything, and the entire living room was filled with sneering of contempt and disgust.

Ling Tianchen didn't care about this. He knew in his heart that compared with Sang Yuxi, the rolling eyes and grievances he had suffered over the past two years were simply negligible.

I had nothing at all, and was recruited as the son-in-law of the Sang family and had a beautiful wife. Although this wife was only nominal, I had never touched my hands once.

However, Sang Yuxi, the proud daughter of the Sang family and the goddess in the minds of thousands of men in Sucheng, married himself, a sick man, who was a coward, had a damaged reputation and could not raise his head in front of the world.

Ling Tianchen felt guilty towards Sang Yuxi.

Ling Tianchen smiled and explained to Sang Yuxi, "The calligraphy and paintings that Bai Lao had just finished are not enough to be framed."

Upon hearing this, Sang Yuxi was delighted. Grandma liked works by famous artists the most, especially the calligraphy and paintings of famous artists Bai Lao.

Mr. Bai's name is Bai Qifeng, a figure in Taishan Beidou in the Chinese calligraphy and painting world. Since he stepped down as the chairman of the Chinese Calligraphy and Painting Association, he has lived in seclusion in Xizi Lake, Sucheng and rarely painted for others. Last year, even Mayor Su went to Jinshi Lake to ask for painting and was turned away and never saw Mr. Bai.

Sang Yuxi said loudly to the old lady: "Grandma, Tianchen specifically asked you for your latest work to celebrate your birthday."

Ling Tianchen opened the calligraphy and painting in his hand, and a tall pine tree and a crane were presented in front of everyone, lifelike, with the inscription on it: Pine Crane Xia Ling. The signature of the calligraphy and painting is Bai Qifeng.

Old Mrs. Sang suddenly looked excited, stepped forward and took the calligraphy and paintings two steps, and admired them intently: "Yuxi is doing well!"

Old Mrs. Sang completely ignored Ling Tianchen's existence and didn't even look at him.

Everyone was amazed that Mr. Bai’s works are priceless and cannot be bought with money. Unexpectedly, Ling Tianchen got them. This guy is not like the idiot people say!

Before Sang Yuxi, Sang Zijian's gift Red Coral was the first, and was highly praised by the old lady. Unexpectedly, the limelight was taken away by Ling Tianchen. He couldn't help but feel anxious and sneered: "Ling Tianchen, you are not afraid of the wind and flashing your tongue. Last year, even the mayor was turned away at the door of Bai's house, but you said that you had obtained Bai's new work. What about cheating? I saw that this painting should be a fake!"

Sang Zijian didn't believe that Ling Tianchen was more respectful than the mayor, and could find Bai Lao's calligraphy and paintings.

Everyone thought what Sang Zijian said made sense, and the look at Ling Tianchen turned into contempt and contempt again.

"A little white-faced, cowardly, dares to say that he knows Mr. Bai. He is so laughing!"

"That's right, I think he doesn't even deserve to carry his shoes to Mr. Bai!" Sang Yuxi's cousins ​​all sneered.

"Old Bai's calligraphy and paintings are not something you can't buy at all if you don't have millions of dollars. You poor guy, don't say you're worth tens of millions."

There was another burst of laughter in the hall, which was particularly harsh.

Sang Yuxi hurriedly said, "Grandma, I believe Tianchen will not lie!"

Ling Tianchen said calmly: "Grandma, you are quite knowledgeable about calligraphy and painting. I believe you know Mr. Bai's handwriting. If you look carefully, this painting is really..."

Sang Zijian interrupted impatiently: "Ling Tianchen, don't lie anymore. Can't the handwriting be imitated? If this painting is real, I will eat the coral!"

Ling Tianchen also wanted to explain, and the old lady's smile gradually solidified on her face. She threw the calligraphy and paintings on Ling Tianchen's face in a cold face, and waved her hand with disgust: "Don't embarrass you here, go out!"

Everyone knew in their hearts that the old lady's attitude was clearly not convinced by Ling Tianchen.

Between Ling Tianchen and Sang Zijian, the old lady unconditionally believed in his precious grandson. No matter how Ling Tianchen explained, she would not believe that the painting was real.

Even if the painting is real, the old lady would say that she used fakes to deceive people in order to protect her grandson's face.

At the Sang family, I am just an outsider and a waste in their eyes. I have problems with my abilities and character, so I can't be trusted at all!

Ling Tianchen naturally disdained to deceive people with a fake painting. Seeing that everyone didn't believe him, Ling Tianchen was too lazy to explain. He smiled indifferently, carefully rolled up calligraphy and paintings, and walked out of the hall with a calm expression in the face of everyone's contemptuous eyes.
