My eldest cousin's family is in the jade business and has a fortune of tens of millions. She is indeed very wealthy. But here, tens of millions is probably nothing, and I can only barely get an invitation. I took out my handkerchief and wiped the red wine on my clothes and said, "Cousin, luckily it was me you bumped into, otherwise I might have to pay for a new set of clothes."
"What? Do you want me to give you a new set of clothes? Believe it or not, I will pour the remaining half cup on your clothes?" The eldest cousin made a joke.
"Look, you started bullying me again." I rolled my eyes and asked, "Where are my aunt and uncle?"
"We are discussing business over there, I will take you there."
Two minutes later.
My aunt and uncle were talking to a middle-aged man. When they saw me, they were very surprised. My eldest cousin explained from the side: "Dad, Mom, Xiaolong is working as a waiter here."
The eldest cousin said that I was a waiter, which seemed to make the eldest uncle feel very embarrassed. After all, he was talking to someone else. But the aunt asked nonchalantly, "Really? Xiaolong, you can make a lot of money in a day."
I laughed twice and didn't answer. Instead, I asked, "How's my aunt's business going lately?"
The aunt looked at the middle-aged man opposite and said, "Not bad. This is President Zhang of Blue Moon Jade. Do you know Blue Moon Jade? There are many chains in the country. President Zhang said that we can cooperate if there is an opportunity in the future." Then she looked again. He asked me: "Xiaolong, haven't you found a formal job yet? If not, just come to our jade shop to help. Auntie can't treat you badly."
I laughed and was about to say that I was not a waiter when my eldest cousin pulled me aside and whispered: "Aren't you a Taoist priest? Why did you come to be a waiter? I have long thought that your career has no future..."
I was helpless: "Cousin, if I go to your house, how much can you pay me per month?"
"Well, there must be at least seven or eight thousand."
"Haha, you and your family are slowly catching up on old times. I'll go over there and say hello to my acquaintances first." President Zhang walked aside with the wine glass in hand and went to talk to others.
After President Zhang left, the eldest uncle sighed and whispered: "Xiaolong came at the wrong time. If we can cooperate with President Zhang, our annual profit may be doubled several times."
The aunt was unhappy and asked: "What do you mean? Do you think my eldest nephew being a waiter will embarrass you? In my opinion, President Zhang has no intention of cooperating with us. What he said was just for the occasion. And Lan It is unrealistic to cooperate with Yue Jade. Their scale is too big and they are not on the same level as us. It is better to find other jade dealers. This trip cannot be in vain."
At this moment, Sister Xiaoling came over wearing a high-end red evening dress, took my arm and asked: "Xiaolong, what happened to you just now? Don't you like to be with those children from aristocratic families?"
The aunt's family all looked at Xu Xiaoling with surprised eyes. The aunt asked: "Xiaolong, who is this?"
"Oh, I forgot to introduce you." I said with a smile: "This is my girlfriend, you can just call her Xiaoling. Xiaoling, this is my aunt, uncle and cousin."
Sister Xiaoling said enthusiastically: "Auntie, uncle, cousin, hello. I have heard Xiaolong mention your family before. He said that you are very good to him."
The aunt also smiled and said: "This girl is so pretty, much prettier than in the photo. Xiaolong, can you bring your girlfriend here if you work as a waiter here?"
I smiled bitterly: "Auntie, I didn't say that I was a waiter. It was my cousin who insisted on saying that I was a waiter."
"Ah? Not a waiter?" The eldest cousin asked strangely: "Then how did you get in? This place only accepts wealthy businessmen... Oh, I understand, are you here with some friends?"
At this moment, President Zhang, who had just left, came back, looked at Sister Xiaoling very rudely, and then said with some surprise: "Miss?!"
"I'm sorry, who are you?" Sister Xiaoling replied politely.
President Zhang hurriedly said: "I am Zhang Desheng, the person in charge of Blue Moon Jade. I have met the eldest lady at the family banquet before. Since I am a nobody, it is normal for the eldest lady not to recognize me."
Sister Xiaoling smiled: "Oh, Uncle Zhang, right? I know you. You manage Blue Moon Jade very well, and you bring a lot of profits to the family every year. Thank you for your hard work."
"Miss, you are too polite. Who is this?" He looked at me and asked.
"This is my fiancé, and these are my fiancé's relatives." Then Sister Xiaoling whispered to me: "My dad is here, upstairs, let's go up too."
I nodded and said, "Auntie, uncle, cousin, I have something else to do. I'm going upstairs first. After the banquet is over, I will slowly catch up with you. Goodbye, President Zhang."
President Zhang nodded quickly and said, "Goodbye, bye. I'll talk to Lao Lu (uncle) about cooperation. You guys go and do your work."
I nodded slightly to them, then turned around and walked upstairs with Sister Xiaoling. As we walked, I whispered: "Sister Xiaoling is so proud. That President Zhang looked down on me at first. After your introduction, his attitude changed completely."
With my sharp hearing, I could still hear the voice of my eldest cousin behind me: "Mom, who is Xiaolong? Isn't it true that only high-level VIPs can go up to the second floor? His girlfriend seems to have a very good background."
The aunt sighed: "This kid Xiaolong, I thought he would live in the countryside all his life, but I didn't expect his identity to be so mysterious. With just one word, we could get a deal that we couldn't negotiate even with nods and bows, and he took the initiative to deliver it to his door... "
There was nothing I could do about my aunt's family's surprise. In fact, I didn't want them to see me in a different light. .
By the time the dinner ended, it was almost twelve o'clock. Auntie and the others said that they would stay in the capital for a few days and treat it as a trip. Sister Xiaoling said that she wanted to invite my aunt and her family to the Xu family, but I didn't agree. After all, I'm not married yet. It's not a good idea to take relatives to the Xu family now. I just asked Sister Xiaoling to arrange a car to take my aunt and her family to the Xu family. Go to a hotel to stay.
Sister Xiaoling and I went directly back to Xu's house, got out of the car, and I whispered with a smile: "Sister Xiaoling, why don't I go to your room tonight and squeeze in."
Sister Xiaoling rolled her eyes at me: "You don't dare to come."
"Well... I think it's not good to live in a room now, so it's better for me to stay in the guest room." I said with a smile.
"Well, let's go, I'll see you off."
I stroked her hair twice: "No need, almost everyone here knows me, I can just go there by myself, I know the way anyway."
I sent Sister Xiaoling to her residence, then turned and walked towards the guest room.
The Xu family has hundreds of buildings, covering a very large area, several times larger than my neighborhood.
As I was walking, I suddenly found a figure standing in the middle of the road ahead, blocking my way. Although I could go around it, I could feel that he was coming for me! So I stopped too.
As he slowly raised his head, I saw clearly through the streetlight that he was Xiao Lei who was injured by me at the Xu family's engagement party last time! He is the child of Sister Xiaoling's third uncle's family. He learned martial arts when he was a child. He was injured by my Shaoshang Sword Qi last time. Are you standing here waiting for me today to take revenge? I asked calmly: "Do you want to see me for anything?"
"I want to fight you again to avenge my shame!"
"Oh, this is not good. If I hurt you again, I won't be able to handle it easily in front of my uncle."
Xiao Lei snorted coldly: "I heard that you are from Huan Yu Pavilion? Huh, after I was injured by you last time, I also joined the Dark Alliance! I want to see why you are so valued by my uncle! I have already I introduced my cousin to my eldest brother, and the eldest brother is very satisfied with my cousin and may come to see her in the near future, haha."
What dark alliance? What big brother? I frowned and introduced Sister Xiaoling to others? Isn't this a blatant provocation to me?
Also, what is this dark alliance? Since he knows that I am from Huanyu Pavilion and still dares to be so unscrupulous, could it be that the Dark Alliance is also a mysterious organization? Is it similar to Huanyu Pavilion? I frowned and said, "What do you mean? Are you openly provoking me? You know, your uncle is very satisfied with me, and Xu Ningrou can only be my wife."
"Humph, are you satisfied?" Xiao Lei sneered, and a gleaming dagger fell from his sleeve. He caught it in his hand and rushed towards me! Extremely fast! He is no longer what he was two years ago! His speed rivals that of Zi Mao Zheng! This purple-haired zombie is much faster than the world sprint champion. Moreover, Xiao Lei's footsteps were very small, just tapping the ground with his toes. This shows that he has not yet reached full speed.
But at this speed, it can't do anything to me.
I dodged his dagger and said, "You can't beat me. I advise you to save your energy. My patience is limited. If you cause trouble for me again, don't blame me for not giving you face and offending Huanyu Pavilion." It's not going to end well."
"Huh, Huan Yu Pavilion? Are we, the Dark Alliance, afraid of Huan Yu Pavilion? Do you really think that my uncle is satisfied with you? Let me tell you, whoever brings out the most treasures will be satisfied with me! Maybe you are really Huan Yu Pavilion? People from Yuge, but I guarantee you that when it comes to the number of treasures, you will definitely not be able to compare with my senior brother! As for the rubbish jade bracelet you gave me last time, my senior brother would be too embarrassed to take it out!" Lei suddenly accelerated and stabbed my stomach with the dagger!
I used the "Seize the White Blade with Empty Hands" in my Sixteenth Route Grasp, grabbed his wrist holding the dagger, and broke it off with all my strength! In pain, the dagger fell out of his hand. I took the dagger with my other hand and placed it across his neck. Frowning his eyebrows, he said: "I really hate it when people do tricks behind my back. Don't make me anxious, otherwise you will definitely regret it!"
He sneered, as if his evil plan had succeeded, and quickly ran into my arms! ! At the same time, another dagger appeared in his hand. . .
