Chapter 371 - 345: Becoming a Rich Woman (Monthly Ticket 2350+ Update)
This idiotic Third Brother, watch out when the banquet ends!
“Youngest, hurry up and take Xiao Qian to the other tables to toast, don’t miss the auspicious time!”
In order to separate the idiotic twin siblings, Mother Yu racked her brain. There was no such thing as an auspicious time for toasting; she was just making it up.
Yu Minglang engaged in a staring battle with his sister Yu Mingxi and Third Brother. When the banquet ends, one-on-one!
Yu Mingxi was not to be outdone, I’m not scared of you, you bastard, pure bastard!
Mother Yu glared at Yu Mingxi, then went to greet the guests at other tables. This engagement banquet had so many twists and turns, there was not a moment of peace.
Yu Minglang felt that Yu Mingxi was a professional face-slapper. Just now, he had publicly sworn that whoever dared to touch his Xiao Mei, he would fight them to the end.
But then, his sister, who crawled out of the same womb with him, came and smacked him right in the face.
Yu Minglang’s head ached. What was wrong with Yu Mingxi? She wasn’t like this usually, but today she ran to his engagement banquet like a ghost possessed, making a scene. A woman’s heart is more elusive than a needle at the bottom of the ocean.
While no one was paying attention, Yu Minglang whispered to Xiao Qian, “She’s just an idiot. Wait till this is over, and I’ll deal with her.”
“She’s not targeting me.” Xiao Qian whispered back.
“What?” Yu Minglang didn’t understand.
“Don’t fight her after this is over. If you do, I won’t be able to get along with her later. I’ll handle it.” Xiao Qian looked at Yu Minglang with a teasing gaze, “You two crawled out of the same womb. There would be no happiness if we argue because of me, wouldn’t I become a troublemaker then?”
“Troublemaker? She’s the one who took the wrong medicine.”
“If you don’t intervene, she’s just under the wrong influence. I can slightly adjust her behavior, and she’ll be back to normal. But if you intervene, I’m afraid my married life will become a single sentence.”
“What?”
“My legendary life with my sister-in-law.”
Xiao Qian looked at Yu Minglang’s strange expression and asked in confusion.
“Xiao Qiang, did you touch an electric door?”
“No… Qian Bao, 1 seemed to forget to tell you something…”
Xiao Qian unconsciously looked in the direction of Yu Mingxi. They were so far apart; should be fine, right?
“Back then, the teacher who taught both of us sign language was the same person.”
Seemingly responding to Yu Minglang’s words, Yu Mingxi’s mouth moved slightly. Yu Minglang massaged his temples.
“She said… she washed up and is waiting for you to adjust her.”
An engagement that turns into a standoff on the battlefield, no one but him could pull it off.
After the banquet, Yu Minglang took Xiao Qian home first. After being busy all day, Xiao Qian leaned against Yu Minglang’s body, feeling a bit drowsy.
Father Yu and Mother Yu were still at the hotel dealing with the aftermath; she and Yu Minglang sneaked back early.
“Qian Bao, are you tired? Let me give you a shoulder massage.” Yu Minglang reached out to massage Xiao Qian’s shoulders, while Xiao Qian closed her eyes, feeling as if her bones were going to fall apart.
“If just getting engaged is this exhausting, we should just get a marriage certificate later and not make a fuss.”
“That won’t do. Our family has spent so much money over the years. If we don’t get some returns, my mom will be heartbroken. Especially Eldest Brother; he has a lot of money. If you don’t let him give us some, the fat on his body will hurt.”
As soon as Yu Minglang finished speaking, Eldest Brother and Second Brother Yu entered the room one after the other. Eldest Brother looked at the two main characters sitting on the sofa and was so angry that his mouth was crooked.
Eldest Brother felt that he was the worst at choosing reincarnation in the world.
He shouldn’t have been a brother to these goods; they were all too troublesome.
Second Brother, who should have been Eldest Brother’s right-hand man, was listless and out of it during the entire engagement banquet, with his facial paralysis and constant mistakes. It was all up to Eldest Brother to save the day.
Third Brother didn’t show his face from start to finish, didn’t help with the preparations, and came to break things up at a critical moment. If it wasn’t for Fourth Brother’s wife’s quick response, today would have been the biggest joke in Old Yu Family’s history.
As they were about to leave, Eldest Brother was pulled aside by Mother Yu to complain about Third Brother. Today, Third Brother slung insults at Xiao Qian in front of all the relatives, and Youngest almost had a fight with him in public.
They didn’t fall under rumors, but they were close to infighting within their own family. Mother Yu was so angry that after it was over, she went straight to find Third Brother to settle the score, only to find out that he had run away.
As for Youngest, who had a strong presence, Eldest Brother remained silent. Although from a family perspective, Youngest did nothing wrong. But from Eldest Brother’s personal point of view, he wanted to beat him up.
Eldest Brother had already anticipated that when they returned home, his wife would definitely stare at him with longing and bring up old resentments, saying why even the worst-off Youngest in the old Yu family could give his wife such a romantic oath while Big Fox you back then…
As they picked on the family’s happy events all along, Eldest Brother wanted to kick them all out, except for Fourth Brother’s wife. The others were all idiots. They were like enemy spies sent to create chaos!
“Youngest Yu, you bastard! While we were in front killing ourselves organizing your engagement banquet, you were talking behind my back!”
Caught red-handed, Yu Minglang was not at all nervous. “I was telling the truth. Don’t give me and Qian Bao gifts if you dare—where’s mom and dad?”
“They went out for tea with their old friends. They asked me to give this to Xiao Qian.”
Eldest Brother Yu took out a card and an account book from his pocket.
“The cash gifts from the relatives are all here. I’ve already helped you save them. Mom said to let Xiao Qian manage it, and also this…”
Eldest Brother Yu put the plastic bag in his hand on the floor, and Second Brother Yu also had one.
“What’s all this?” Xiao Qian leaned in to see the things in the bag and was speechless.
“Eldest Brother, couldn’t you find a normal bag to hold these? It looks like you’re disposing of a body…”
The restaurant used large black plastic bags for trash, just like the ones Eldest Brother and Second Brother were holding now. But instead of leftovers, they held gift boxes.
They looked like luxury goods and some mysterious items.
“Wasn’t it supposed to be low-key? How come there’s still so much?” Xiao Qian casually flipped through and saw several international big brand logos.
“This is already the lowest key we could manage. These are all from close relatives, who have been close to our family for a long time. Don’t think too much about it. We haven’t forbidden others to give to our family or ourselves all these years. These are from close relatives. They give big cash gifts. So, take it. There are two portions, which should be prepared for Ming Xi, you split it with her later.”
Eldest Brother took out a list, made by the Eldest Sister-in-law, of the expensive gifts they picked.
For the rest, no need to pay attention.
Since the Yu family’s twins were also celebrating their birthday today, some close friends and family would prepare two gifts, one of which was for Ming Xi..
