Qin Xuejuan didn't hesitate, raised his hand and opened the door, and at a glance he saw the old man sitting in the room with reading glasses and reading the newspaper.
This is an old man, with a rickety figure, silver hair, and dense wrinkles on his face, only the expression in his eyes still reveals so much energy.
"Grandpa!" Qin Xuejuan stepped forward quickly, squatting down in front of the old man.
Qin Siyuan still had no problem with his hearing. Seeing Qin Xuejuan in front of him, he seemed to be stunned for a while.
"Xiaojuan?" The old man's tone was uncertain.
"Yeah, yeah, it's me, grandpa, I'm back to see you." Qin Xuejuan's tears slipped down, and this old man was her favorite and respected one in the Qin family.
Qin Siyuan raised his hand to caress Qin Xuejuan's head, her old eyes moisturized, "Okay, just come back, just come back."
After a simple greeting from the grandparents, Qin Xuejuan asked Xu Jianjun and his daughter to come forward.
"Grandpa, this is your grandson-in-law Xu Jianjun, and this is my daughter Xu Ning."
"Hello, grandpa." Xu Jianjun stepped forward.
Xu Ning did not make a sullen gourd either. He stepped forward and shouted "Grandpa", and then was pulled by the old man to sit down.
"Good, good..." The old man kept nodding his head in a series of good.
Xu Ning also realized that the old man really did not reject their father and daughter, and felt a little better in his heart.
In the next time, the father and daughter were sitting next to each other, listening to Qin Xuejuan and Qin Siyuan's conversation. During this period, the two of them would reply peacefully when they were questioned by the elder.
"Tomorrow night there will be a reception banquet for you at home." Qin Siyuan said, "Grandpa will go home with you."
Qin Xuejuan didn't immediately agree, "I still have to ask the doctor about this. You can't go back when you say it. If the banquet is so noisy, you don't like it. It's a big deal. I will come to see you every day."
"That's what you said."
"Yes, I said." Qin Xuejuan nodded quickly like coaxing a child.
With Qin Xuejuan's assurance, the old man did not continue to insist. On the one hand, he really didn't like the noisy scenes of young people, and the most important thing was that his body really couldn't stand the tossing.
In the office of the boss of Mordu Shijie Textile, a man in his thirties is approving documents behind his desk.
"Hello, hello." The next moment, the brick-like big brother on the table rang loudly.
"Tang Chen, it's me."
Hearing the voice of the other party, Tang Chen suddenly relaxed, put down the signature pen in his hand, and leaned back lazily on the boss chair, "What can I do?"
"You have a Qin family over there, do you know Qin Yaokang?"
"Still a little capable, and live in a community with me." Tang Chen was a little surprised, "What do you want to do?"
The other party's status is not low, and he is still in the capital. This suddenly called the Qin Family of the Demon Capital to ask him a little. Could it be that the Qin Family has something worthy of attention from above?
"I didn't do anything, my old man asked me to do a little favor." The other party then said the matter again.
But the more Tang Chen listened to it, the more unexpected it became. The other party and the Qin family really had nothing to do with each other. This was just being entrusted by others. It was just who asked, the other party did not say, nor did Tang Chen ask.
It is good for him to have personal relationships with each other, but he has never been involved in his respective fields of work.
However, he received the invitation from the Qin family's dinner party. He had thought about it before, but now he has to go.
"I know, I will go." Tang Chen agreed.
In the room, Qin Xiang rummaged in her cloakroom, thinking about which clothes to give Xu Ning.
She has a lot of clothes, and some of them have not been worn at all. The most important thing is that the prices of these clothes are not cheap.
After picking and choosing, Qin Xiang found a piece of clothing that satisfies her, folded it and stuffed it into a paper bag next to it.
In fact, she really likes Xu Ning? Of course not.
On the contrary, she can be said to be very unwelcome to the father and daughter, including the aunt.
Qin Xiang has rarely heard of this aunt since she can remember. Her mother told her that before the full moon she was born, Qin Xuejuan ran away from home and went to the countryside with the army. So when it comes to feelings with this aunt, it’s okay. Said it was not at all.
Because of this, she despised the family of three in her heart.
What is the identity of the Qin family? Her friends are all demon-faced girls. If these friends knew that she had such a rural relative, they would definitely be laughed at. It would be strange that Qin Xiang liked it.
Of course, she also felt that her aunt was completely self-willed and depraved. She was from such a background and couldn't find any kind of family, so she didn't know the importance of marrying a countryman. This is not mean.
So in the evening their family wanted to use the Qin family's banquet to let everyone recognize their identity, 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, the Xu Ning family came to take advantage of their Qin family. A countryman, can he not be moved by seeing the wealth of the Qin family? She absolutely doesn't believe it.
In the afternoon, the people who were pregnant with ghosts began to make preparations one after another, and the dinner tonight was destined to not be passed safely.
Upstairs in Xu Ning's room, Qin Xiang gave Xu Ning the clothes he had brought with him with a look of enthusiasm.
"I picked one for you from a pile of clothes. I haven't worn it yet. See if you like it?" I said so, but I didn't agree with it in my heart. This is the clothes she bought and shelved, and it must be Xu Ning. What can you hate if you haven't seen it?
Sure enough, Xu Ning took the dress, touched the silky fabric, smiled and said, "Thank you Sister Qin Xiang, I like it very much."
"Just like it, I'll help you change it later, you are the protagonist tonight."
Xu Ning smiled and said nothing.
At six o'clock in the evening, the Qin family hall was all sorted out, and all kinds of water-like delicacies were brought out from the kitchen, and at this time, good friends who got along with the Qin family had arrived in advance.
The dinner starts at seven o'clock, this time period comes, but when there are few people, you can chat more with each other.
Xu Ning didn't know what happened to her parents, and she didn't need to worry about it. On her side, Qin Xiang had already enthusiastically urged her to change her clothes.
She really didn't notice Qin Xiang's malice towards her. After all, at Xu Ning's mental age, Qin Xiang was still a child, and what a child could do extraordinary things.
Although my last life was bleak, I still don't want to always worry about everyone I see.
The dress is a half-length dress with lantern sleeves, the color is light green, with a sense of elegance.
Xu Ning's clothes are quite fitting, but the waist is a little loose, but fortunately there is a dark belt tied around it.
"You look very beautiful in this dress." Qin Xiang looked at Xu Ning, feeling sour and uncomfortable, but he still praised with a smile, not to mention stunned.
"It's because the clothes are beautiful." Xu Ning stood in front of the mirror and glanced at it, then untied her hair and combed it again.
