Chapter 493 - 410 Buding’s 100 Days
Wang Meishu didn’t get support from Mrs. Leng, but she wasn’t discouraged. When she encountered Li Si, she mentioned this matter.
Li Si didn’t hesitate and directly refused, saying there would be only one branch; they would just have those in Beijing! And added that if her aunt wanted to open in another city, she wouldn’t object.
This almost made Wang Meishu furious. Why should a native of Beijing go somewhere else to open this beauty salon?
She wanted to open it precisely because she had family, friends, and classmates here. Who would she know if she went elsewhere?
So in the end, nothing came of it, and she was quite dissatisfied.
Moreover, when she went back and complained to Ouyang Zhenglin, she was scolded again, being asked if she had any demeanor of an elder and how she could take advantage of the younger generation.
In a nutshell, she gained nothing from anywhere and felt very frustrated inside.
With nowhere to turn, she could only complain to her mother, and coincidentally, her father’s cousin’s brother and his family came to visit the old lady.
Since she returned to the country, all the relatives had heard the news, and many people who hadn’t contacted them in years were also coming non-stop, which made her and her mother quite annoyed.
But this younger brother was different. Back then, her family’s conditions were average, whereas this brother’s family had some money from his mother’s side, making his family one of the wealthiest among relatives, so she had some impression of them.
It’s been years since they last saw each other, and his daughter is older than her son, so when they met, they each caught up and sighed over their respective situations.
However, his wife was quite plump, with a feisty demeanor, while the daughter was quiet, though both mother and daughter seemed to have some injuries on their faces.
It was said they got beaten up for resisting when someone tried to snatch their bag recently.
She found it very strange! Doesn’t their family sell cars? How could they get their bag snatched while driving? Maybe they were on the street?
Feeling something was odd, she pondered a little but didn’t give it much thought.
This brother of hers was none other than the Liao family.
The social circle is that small, and fate is so mysterious!
When Wang Mei heard this aunt back from abroad boastfully talk about her husband’s nephew planning a grand wedding on June 1st, she exchanged a look with Nanny Wang, and they both saw a glimmer in each other’s eyes.
This was such a good opportunity!
Not only would they get to meet influential people from the social circle, but it would also give them face, all while flattering this aunt.
So when they proposed that they must attend the wedding to show support, Wang Meishu, though courteously declining at first, eventually agreed, and her pride was evident in her eyes.
Is there anything more satisfying than having people whom you once envied bowing and flattering you?
After the Wang family bid farewell and left, Wang Mei’s face was full of joy. She had originally planned to go on a date with her new boyfriend today, but her parents insisted on visiting this aunt’s house.
Luckily she came, bringing such an unexpected joy.
The aunt mentioned how that family was exceptionally wealthy and influential, well-ranked in the Beijing social circle.
So it goes without saying who would attend this wedding banquet.
Nanny Wang had also noticed her daughter’s happiness. To flatter Uca Wang, she playfully winked at him: "Old Wang! Don’t say I didn’t tell you! Your family has some connections! Coming today wasn’t a waste of time, huh!"
Old Wang jovially responded: "Now you see I wasn’t bragging, right? Actually, back then her family couldn’t compare with mine. It’s just that my mom passed early, and my grandma left all the property to my uncle. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be lagging!"
"Why bring that up in such a happy moment?" Nanny Wang, uninterested in his family’s grievances, turned to ask Wang Mei, "Can you settle down with that guy or not? If you think he’s suitable, let’s have the parents meet soon; forget the engagement, just get married straight away!"
Nanny Wang was indeed very concerned about her daughter’s marriage. The video problem back when they got engaged was too impactful. If she can find someone proper and get married soon, it may not be a bad thing.
"He’s good in every way, just that his family conditions are too poor! A few days ago, I went to his house, three people living in such a small two-bedroom in an old district. The corridor even smelt terrible, enough to kill someone! But his dad is okay, as for his mom, she might be a bit cunning. But as long as he stands by me, I think we can manage!"
"Then hurry up! My daughter! I find that boy alright!" She took a glance at Old Wang opening the car door and whispered to Wang Mei, "Wasn’t it fortunate someone helped us when we were in a bind that day? What does it show? It shows he’s kind-hearted! A good man! His family conditions aren’t good, but we’re not lacking! At worst, I’ll give you guys the place at Haiyuan to live in! But the property certificate must remain in my name! We can’t let him find loopholes in the future, right?"
Wang Mei nodded, agreeing that her mom made sense. If it weren’t for him helping them, she might not even consider him!
If she had met him before, she probably wouldn’t have even looked at him!
"I got it, mom! I’ll talk to him later! If it’s okay, I’ll arrange for you to meet the day after tomorrow at the latest!"
"Ah! Great! Get in the car! Let your dad drive you where you need to go!" Nanny Wang was so overjoyed she couldn’t stop smiling, one good thing after another!
Their family’s misfortune seemed to be over, and it appeared the fortune teller was right!
Time flew, and finally, on the 25th, little Buding reached his hundredth day!
In the morning, personnel from the photography studio that took their wedding photos came to take a hundred-day photo of Buding. The adorable Buding was in great spirits today, smiling happily, very cooperative during the shoot, and didn’t cry when he changed into four different outfits. Subsequently, Li Si and Leng Mochen also joined the photos.
Later, the Leng family parents and Leng Ning arrived, and they took a family photo together.
After the photoshoot, everyone sat in the living room, drinking tea and chatting.
Mrs. Leng thought for a moment, then looked at Leng Mochen and asked, "Mochen! Besides attending your wedding, your uncle and aunt came back this time also to look around domestically. If there are good investment projects, they won’t go back. Can you help them look for something suitable?"
Having lived outside for so many years, Mrs. Leng had always missed them. After all, this brother was her only remaining relative.
If they could settle in the country, she would be very welcoming.
Leng Mochen put down the teacup and said calmly, "Uncle operated a supermarket chain abroad. If they want to do it domestically now, it would be good. If he’s interested, he can research more."
He had been extremely busy lately. If it weren’t for today being his son’s hundred-day photo shoot, he wouldn’t be sitting here so leisurely, sipping tea now.
Since returning to the country, he’s been very occupied. Some matters were uncovered about those three people abroad, but their intentions were still unclear!
No one knew what moves the other party would make next, so he remained vigilant.
Thus, he wasn’t very concerned with his supposed uncle’s matters. (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit qidian.com to vote for recommendation tickets, monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com)
