Chapter 189 Banquet
The Xiao family’s house is a yard dedicated to entertaining guests.
Xiao Tai, Xiao Jianhong and Xiao Jianye were all present and accompanied Tao Yanhui and his son to sit down. Xiao Jianhong's wife Zhou Lian ordered the servants to present tea.
"Old Master Xiao, today we, mother and son, came here uninvited and took the initiative to visit us. I hope we will forgive you."
Tao Yanhui looked at Xiao Tai on the high seat, and smiled with a little apology. She was elegant and luxurious, and every move she made her noble style unique to a century-old family.
Although Mr. Xiao is nearly seventy years old, he is still very strong in shape and loud in his voice. He laughed and said, "If you don't know where, I'm so kind."
"Our two families are about to become in-laws, that is a family. It is a good thing to come and go around more. What are you saying if you don't forgive me?"
Tao Yanhui nodded with a smile. A young man sat next to her, with a little sickly pale face and looked a little weak. It was her youngest son Yang Guanyu.
"Hello Grandpa Xiao."
Yang Guanyu stood up, bowed to Mr. Xiao on the high seat, and then greeted him to Xiao Jianhong and Xiao Jianye in turn.
His attitude was quite respectful, but there was a hint of disdain on his slightly lowered face. Obviously, as a direct descendant of the Qingdu family, he did not look down on the people of the Xiao family very much.
"Good boy, sit down quickly." Xiao Tai smiled.
Yang Guanyu nodded and responded, and went back to sit down, but at this moment there was a humble smile on his face.
Xiao Tai nodded secretly, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes. In addition to being a little thin, Yang Guanyu is still in good character. Xiao Ruonan should not suffer when he married.
"Old Master Xiao, this visit mainly refers to the desire to take Guanyu and meet Nan Nan with him to make the two children familiar. Is Nan Nan free now?"
After a few polite words, Tao Yanhui directly expressed her purpose.
Some time ago, the Yang family had been following Lu Xuantong's request to take care of Yang Guanyu's health and had no chance to go out.
The two families made a marriage contract three weeks ago and were about to get married in a few days, but Yang Guanyu had never seen Xiao Ruonan.
I came to Xiao’s family today, first to find out, see if the Xiao family made it so much last night, or if there was someone else. Secondly, I also brought Yang Guanyu out for some breath, which would be good for the health, and by the way, I met Xiao Ruonan, whom he was about to marry.
"She is at home when you have time." Xiao Tai nodded.
Xiao Jianye said, "Then I'll call Nannan."
In fact, he didn't need to go there for such a small matter. After all, there are still distinguished guests here, so it's hard to lose your companionship. But in addition to notifying Xiao Ruonan to come, he also wanted Xiao Ruonan to inform Chen Tian and told him not to attend the banquet tonight.
If Chen Tian and the Yang family had met, they would know what would happen, but it would not be a good thing.
Xiao Tai nodded and agreed. He naturally knew that what Xiao Jianye could think of was the plan to host Chen Tian tonight's banquet could only be temporarily cancelled.
However, before Xiao Jianye got up, Zhou Lian, who had never spoken next to him, suddenly said, "Dad, I'll go to this little thing, and let's see how the dinner is going."
She also mentioned the dinner and stated that she knew what to do, and would ask Xiao Ruonan to notify Chen Tian and tell him not to attend the banquet.
Xiao Tai pondered for a moment and nodded: "Then go."
Zhou Lian agreed, then smiled at Tao Yanhui, signaled that she would lose her companion for a moment, and then walked out of the living room.
However, the moment he stepped out of the hall, Zhou Lian's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a sinister smile that no one noticed.
Xiao Ruonan, a bitch who ruined the reputation of the Xiao family and gave birth to her before marriage, has the qualifications to represent the Xiao family to marry the Yang family?
There is only one person in the entire Xiao family who can marry into the Qingdu century-old family, and that is her daughter Xiao Ling!
No matter how the Yang family recognized Xiao Ruonan, if a boyfriend appeared now, he would offend the Wei family for her and cause such a big disturbance, and even came to the Xiao family with a swagger to show his love with Xiao Ruonan.
Then the Yang family will definitely not marry Xiao Ruonan again, and then their daughter Xiao Ling can be replaced!
Zhou Lian's heart was full of heat and excited. The more I thought about it, the more likely it was.
The news of the marriage between the Xiao family and the Yang family has spread throughout Qingdu. Both families are first-class wealthy families in Qingdu and have a great reputation. Since this matter has been decided, it is impossible to change again.
If Xiao Ruonan can't marry, then she will change her. In the upper class of Qingdu, this situation has not happened before. Not to mention others, she even used a lot of tricks to marry Xiao Jianhong.
Zhou Lian was thinking secretly in her heart and stepped to the yard where Xiao Ruonan was, but she never pushed the door open and went in.
...
At this time, Xiao Ruonan was dressing Xiao Fei'er, and Xiao's mother was also helping her, dressing up Xiao Fei'er together.
Tao Yanhui and Yang Guanyu suddenly visited, which was a bit surprised. They didn't know about it yet.
After dressing up well, Xiao Feier became the cutest little princess in the fairy tale. Her exquisite pink skirt, well-behaved face, and Xiao Ruonan's carefully woven hair all made Xiao Feier particularly cute today.
Xiao Fei'er blinked her big eyes and asked with her head tilted, "Mom, why haven't Dad arrived yet? Fei'er missed him so much."
Her eyes were filled with impatience and excitement. After learning that Chen Tian was about to come to the Xiao family, she was in a state of excitement.
"A moment later, Dad will arrive soon." Xiao Ruonan touched Xiao Fei'er's little face and said with a smile.
Xiao’s mother next to her couldn’t help but show a soft smile when she looked at the happy smiles on her daughter and granddaughter’s faces. This was the first time she had seen Xiao Ruonan and Xiao Feier so happy.
At the same time, she became more and more curious about the man who was said to be her daughter's boyfriend. What kind of man did she fall in love with such an outstanding daughter?
"It's almost seven o'clock, let's go pick up my father." Xiao Ruonan looked at his phone and said.
"Okay!" Xiao Fei'er jumped and agreed happily.
She eagerly held Xiao Ruonan and Xiao's mother's hands, pulled them hard and walked out with excitement.
...
From five minutes to seven o'clock, Chen Tian rarely arrived at the Xiao family's courtyard a few minutes in advance.
Zhuque drove him over, but did not go in with him.
He actually didn't have many formal clothes, and he didn't have to care about wearing it at his level. However, for today's dinner, he specially wore the suit that Xiao Ruonan gave him, and rarely took care of his hair, making him look even more majestic.
As soon as he got off the car, he saw three figures standing in front of the gate of the Xiao family. A gentle smile appeared on Chen Tian's face.
