Let her be arrogant
Chapter 124 The flowers are waning and the moon is waning
"Thousands of tears were shed in one night. It was hard to get up and fall asleep, and now I regret it. I heard that the old man in the field harvested ten more bushes of wheat, and it was easy to get a wife. Now that he has become an official, he will marry his wife in his arms." .
"It is wise to say that a wife of wretched men should not leave the court, and acquaintances of the poor and the lowly should not be forgotten. I am still his old wife, and I should be the first one when it comes to wives."
Sheng Lanqing sang softly and said with some emotion: "I don't know what Li Ruoshui's state of mind is now."
Li Ruoshui deliberately plotted against her, and of course she would not forgive him.
Just a little bit of mercy.
Xi Yu said calmly: "You will know when you go."
A brand new red carpet was rolled out from inside the hotel to the outside.
Lily flowers imported from abroad were clustered into floral decorations, decorating the huge artistic photos of the couple, with long moon-white ribbons hanging from the ends.
A handsome-looking middle-aged man, with gray hair on his temples but meticulously combed, greets the guests at the door with a smile.
Standing next to her were three women of varying ages. The oldest one was about forty, and the younger one was only in her twenties. They were all wearing the same cheongsam, but in different styles, and they were all dressed up.
Xi Yu held Sheng Lanqing's hand and reminded her softly before getting out of the car: "The man at the door is Ye Shuwei's father, Ye Lang, and the three women next to him are all his lovers."
"Ye Shuwei's biological mother divorced and went abroad early, started a new family, and didn't care much about her daughter."
Ye Lang caught a glimpse of the movement here from a distance, and hurriedly greeted her. He reached out his hand and said enthusiastically: "Mr. Xi, it is really an honor for our Ye family that you can come to our little daughter's engagement party."
Xi Yu nodded calmly and did not shake his hand back.
Ye Lang didn't feel embarrassed, so he retracted his hand and continued to say with a smile: "Please come this way."
When he arrived at the area where the engagement banquet was held, Ye Lang stopped and focused his eyes on Sheng Lanqing's face.
As someone who almost became Xi Yu's father-in-law, he had already heard of Sheng Lanqing's name.
The illegitimate daughter of the Sheng family is very beautiful, has a good figure, and is young.
But this alone may not be enough to make Xi Yu's heart move.
Therefore, when Ye Shuwei tried to get close to Xi Yu based on her previous engagement.
For selfish reasons, he chose a laissez-faire attitude.
The result was that the iron plate was kicked.
Not only did Ye Shuwei fail to seduce Xi Yu, but she also got herself involved.
It's not that Shi Yubai of the Shi family is bad, it's just that the meager benefits are not enough.
If it weren't for the commotion among the sons at home and the commotion among his delicate and lovely lover, he really wouldn't want to marry off his daughter so soon.
"Who is this?"
Ye Lang stared at Sheng Lanqing pretending to be confused, but still unwilling to do so.
No matter how he looked at it, he never thought that this woman was better than Ye Shuwei, not to mention that she had a shady background.
It's just for fun. If you really want to marry someone, rich ladies like Ye Shuwei should be the first choice.
Even if it's not his daughter, it shouldn't be her.
Sheng Lanqing saw the malice in his eyes and didn't take it seriously. Just as he was about to answer, Xi Yu beat him to it.
He held her hand tightly and said seriously: "Miss Sheng is my partner and the chairman of Shengshi Company."
Ye Lang's hostility subsided slightly.
There is a difference in status between a simple plaything and a woman with some abilities that Xi Yu cares about.
He said kindly: "Then please take a seat, my useless son will entertain guests here."
The head table is occupied by the highest-ranking guests and the immediate family members of the bride and groom. Ye Lang led Xi Yu here, obviously with the intention of getting closer to his son.
Xi Yu's eyes flashed with an almost imperceptible trace of disgust, and he pulled Sheng Lanqing to sit in the corner.
Several illegitimate sons of the Ye family wanted to come over to get close to him, but they were forced back by his cold eyes.
After a while, Xie Si also walked in. After looking around, his eyes lit up when he saw this place.
He sat next to Xi Yu with a smile and asked, "You two came really early, are you also here to watch the fun?"
Xie Si grabbed a handful of melon seeds in his hand and enthusiastically gave half of it to Sheng Lanqing. He said excitedly: "I drank with Shi Yubai last night. It was just that he drank to drown his sorrows. I was gloating next to him. I heard that he I have been avoiding seeing Li Ruoshui for many days."
Sheng Lanqing was not surprised.
The reason why Li Ruoshui was able to stay with a scumbag like Shi Yubai for so many years was all because of her social skills in dealing with people and her ability to make Shi Yubai happy.
Li Ruoshui was used to doing these things.
And out of love for Shi Yubai, no matter how many wrongs she suffered, she would always be happy.
But... what if her love no longer exists?
"Then... Shi Yubai doesn't care about that child?"
Sheng Lanqing frowned, but she still couldn't bear it.
Xie Si sneered and said: "Miss Sheng, not every illegitimate child will be as upright as you when he grows up. Most of them will have a crooked upper beam and a crooked lower beam."
"So these so-called innocent children, in the eyes of their parents, are just a waste of resources, just based on whether they are valuable or not."
"Don't look at this Mr. Ye, he seems to be very partial to his illegitimate child. But the premise is that Ye Shuwei is a woman. If she is a son, Ye Lang will definitely love her the most."
"These people are like remnants of feudalism, they are so old-fashioned."
"So don't think that just because Shi Yubai has a good relationship with Xi Yu, you think he is a good person. He is also terribly bad and young. He doesn't take blood inheritance seriously."
Sheng Lanqing pursed her lips.
She couldn't help but think of Sheng Cangting's attitude towards her, it was indeed the case.
Because it was easy to obtain and support a large number of children, family ties were thinned over and over again, and in the end there was almost no one left.
"Don't think too much, no matter which circle you are in, there will be people like this."
Xi Yu's slender fingers faintly covered her clasped hand, as if to comfort her.
"Including people like us, there are still loving couples and harmonious families, but... not too many."
After all, in today's society, there are too many people who care about interests and too few restrictions.
Whether you can stick to the end depends mainly on the constraints of your own moral concepts.
"The bride has come out, the bride has come out, she is so beautiful!"
The immature voice of a child rang out. It was a child who was following his elders to the banquet, with only superficial glitz in his eyes.
Sheng Lanqing looked at the end of the red carpet and saw the bride with her fluffy white gauze skirt, her princess hair pulled up, and her airy bangs parted on both sides of her forehead, looking elegant and graceful.
If you ignore the sullen groom opposite her, it can indeed be regarded as a beautiful scenery.
The melodious sound of piano sounded.
Ye Lang led his daughter forward, handed her over to Shi Yubai, and announced that the Ye and Shi families were officially married.
This engagement is no different from a formal wedding.
