When Dong Maode said this, his eyes were filled with tears and his eyes were red. He sighed and said: "Forget it, let's not mention the past. You young people don't understand our feelings at that time." How pure.” Then, Dong Maode suddenly changed the subject, as if he was only sad for a second, and continued: "How about you be my grandson's wife? I have an eldest grandson, who should be a few years older than you. He has also been away from home because of work. No marriage..." Shen Chuan quickly interrupted him and said awkwardly: "Mr. Dong, I have no plans to get married at the moment." Fu Huaichen couldn't help but add: "Yes, Mr. Dong, young people have their own ideas, so don't worry about it." As soon as Fu Huaichen finished speaking, Dong Maode glanced at him meaningfully, "You kid, don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. The look in your eyes when you look at this girl makes you squirm!" Shen Chuan's cheeks turned red instantly. If you weren't a person who had been on the battlefield, you would be able to control people's hearts! "But I think this Yan family sister is about the same age as my little grandson. Why don't you two have a chat?" What was a good business cocktail party was turned into a blind date by Dong Maode, who wanted to pull a red string for everyone he caught. Yan Qirui hurriedly waved her hand to refuse, and said with a guarded face: "Dong Laoning, please don't mess around with me. My sister is still young and has to go to school! What can she know at the age of eighteen or nineteen?" Suddenly, he was eating melon. Yan Qirui was eager to protect her sister, and hurriedly pulled Yan Qiman behind him, blocking her like an old hen.
Such an action made Dong Maode burst into laughter, and he couldn't help but complain: "Okay, okay, then my old man got too nosy. You young people just have so many ideas!" "Mr. Dong, long time no see, you are still very strong!" Then suddenly there was a somewhat muddy voice. Immediately afterwards, Huo Weiye came over with his two sons, Huo Yibin and Huo Yizhe, and toasted Mr. Dong with a wine glass. Mr. Dong also smiled heartily, "Thank you Huo Dong for coming! If there is any fault in the hospitality, please forgive me." Huo Weiye held up the wine glass and shook his head hurriedly, "What are you talking about, Mr. Dong? It is already an honor for me, Mr. Huo, to receive the invitation!" Immediately afterwards, he quickly asked Huo Yibin and Huo Yizhe beside him to toast the old man. Dong Maode was still looking around at this time and asked curiously: "I remember that you have a younger son and a younger daughter, why didn't you see them?" When Dong Maode said this, Huo Weiye had a look of embarrassment on his face and could only say lightly: "Yi Xiu is here today, but I don't know where he is now. His daughter got married in the next city. Today I couldn’t come back in time.” When Huo Yibin and Huo Yizhe heard the little monkey's name, their expressions were very ugly, and they even had disgust in their eyes. Huo Yizhe couldn't help but said in a measured tone: "I don't know what the third brother is doing here today? He hasn't been back home for so long! Those who don't know think that the Huo family doesn't have this person!" As soon as Huo Yizhe finished speaking, Huo Weiye gave him a hard look. Huo Yibin also reminded Huo Yizhe, "Don't talk nonsense here, and speak according to the occasion." And these words were naturally heard by everyone around him. Mr. Dong didn't say anything on his face, but in fact, the Huo family's affairs were widely spread in the imperial capital. Huo Weiye was a romantic when he was young and has married three wives in his life. The eldest wife gave birth to Huo Yibin and Huo Yizhe, and then she died of a serious illness. The second wife gave birth to a little monkey, and then she caused all the trouble and was sent abroad. Now the third wife has given birth to a daughter, and the whole family It’s also a time of turmoil. Therefore, Huo Weiye is very taboo about family matters being mentioned outside. I don’t even want to see the baby monkey mother and her son. It's just that when he came to the scene today, he had already seen the little monkey. The other party didn't come over to say hello to him, so he pretended not to see it.
Anyway, for the Huo family, there is no longer a little monkey. Fortunately, at this time, Dong Maode was also busy calling his little grandson over to get to know everyone. Dong Xiuyun has the air of a scholar, gentle and polite appearance, and he really doesn't look like a business person. He obediently obeyed Mr. Dong's arrangements and greeted everyone on Monday. On the other side, Dong Qianqin and Yu Wanwan were also surrounded by many ladies and daughters. As for why Yu Wanwan and Dong Qianqin came, that is, Dong Qianqin is also a branch of the Dong family, and he is also a relative who can be compared with eight poles. From the moment she walked in, Dong Qianqin acted like the daughter of a wealthy family. He introduced himself to everyone he met as Dong Maode's niece, and the people who didn't know why were really fooled by him. When they saw Dong Xiuyun, they instantly turned into a considerate elder, trotting over quickly with a wine glass in hand, with a bright smile on his face:
"Xiuyun, remember aunt? I hugged you when you were a child!" "Oh, you are so handsome. You have the general demeanor of Mr. Dong back in the day, and the handsomeness of your father." "By the way, I heard that your parents went abroad to travel. Speaking of which, your mother and I are still good friends. From the time she married to the Dong family, I have been in contact with her. She really married a good husband and gave birth to a child. You are such an excellent son." Dong Qianqin said a lot of words like a barrage of words as soon as she came up. She was quite good at courting relatives. Dong Xiuyun listened to her carefully, and then responded politely: "I'm sorry, I don't understand much of what you said, because I have been studying abroad since I was a child, and I just came back not long ago." When Dong Qianqin heard this, she felt a little confused on her face. She talked about it for a long time, but she didn't have any impression at all. Yu Wanwan felt embarrassed, so he reached out and pulled her, "Okay, aunt, stop talking. The young master has so many relatives, how can he remember them all? Let's go over there and sit down." Dong Qianqin was not very happy, but after saying a few words to Dong Xiuyun, she realized that they were not on the same channel and had no common topic, so she had no choice but to shut up. Because of today's business reception, the Dong family did not tell everyone Dong Xiuyun's birthday, so no one prepared any gifts. At this time, Shen Chuan took out a brooch from his bag and gave it to Dong Xiuyun as a birthday gift. Dong Xiuyun held the brooch in his hand and thanked Shen Chuan first, seeing that he liked it very much. At this time, a voice of disapproval came from the side, "Xiu Yun has never seen anything before. It would be too shabby to give it to me as a gift. It's better not to give it to me!" And her voice also attracted many guests. Shen Chuan looked over and saw that it was Dong Qianqin who was speaking, but she just smiled and said nothing.
