Chapter 60 Guests Dislike the Seat and Leave Early
Her husband toiled away at the grassroots level for half his life, giving countless gifts and putting on countless smiles, and finally today he received a transfer order and was promoted to the rank of director!
If, at this moment, because of this scandal in Qiao Shouguo's family, someone were to report them with a letter of complaint, saying that the Qiao family's family values were corrupt, then her husband's career would be completely ruined!
If it really comes to that, Wang Liuqing will definitely chop this shameless family to pieces with a knife!
Wang Liuqing's chest heaved violently. She raised her cold, dagger-like eyes and glared at Qiao Lijun and Qiao Mingzhu, who were toasting several elders not far away.
Looking at the two people's sticky, lingering gaze, Wang Liuqing felt a wave of nausea wash over her, as if she had swallowed a fly, and she abruptly looked away.
They were all normal children when they were young, and Lijun was outstanding from a young age.
How come after all these years, they all seem to have been transformed, possessed, and become so crazy and shameless?!
In the corner, Qiao Xinxin held a bowl of rice, taking small bites of the tender steamed fish, listening to the buzzing jeers and insults around her, looking at Qiao Shouguo's face that looked like he was dying, and her aunt's murderous gaze...
She slowly swallowed the fish in her mouth, and the corners of her mouth gradually curved into an extremely pleasant smile.
How wonderful! The dishes at this banquet smell delicious.
At the main table, Wang Liuqing felt a throbbing pain in her temples, and her head felt like it was buzzing with a swarm of wasps, causing her to grit her teeth in pain.
They all share the surname Qiao! This is a disgrace to the Qiao family for eighteen generations!
Even if we assume those two little bastards really do like each other and want to be together, they should at least have broken off the engagement with the Zhou family completely first! Now look what's happened—on their wedding day, the groom's family has found fault with them, causing a huge uproar!
Not only did they offend the Zhou family, which has a deep-rooted influence, they also trampled the Qiao family's reputation underfoot into pieces!
And yet, these two shameless bastards still brazenly wore red jackets and bowed to heaven and earth to become husband and wife in front of their elders!
Shameless! They've practically torn off the Qiao family's face and trampled on it!
If it weren't for the fact that her brother-in-law, Qiao Shouguo, was now running a large business and was a prominent figure in the city, Wang Liuqing would have already stormed out! Sitting there, she felt her face burning, as if she had been slapped dozens of times across the face!
"Mom, don't get upset and harm your health." The eldest son, sitting next to her, noticed his mother's agitation, stepped forward, patted her shoulder, and comforted her in a low voice, "After we finish this meal, we'll pack our things and leave immediately. We're not getting involved in this mess."
Hearing her son's words, Wang Liuqing felt a little relieved of the anger that had been building up in her chest, but when she looked up at Qiao Lijun and Qiao Mingzhu, who were holding wine glasses not far away, she was still as cold as if frost could be blown down from their chests.
At the banquet, relatives outwardly offered congratulations while raising their glasses, but only they themselves knew how much sarcasm and disdain were hidden in the curve of their lips.
At this moment, a distant cousin of the Qiao family, carrying a glass of baijiu, staggered over.
"Brother Lijun!" His distant cousin slurred, his face beaming. "Congratulations! You've finally married such a beautiful wife as Mingzhu, keeping the good stuff in the family! I'll drink this, you can drink as you like!"
Qiao Lijun forced a smile. He wasn't stupid, and he wasn't a company commander for nothing; how could he not notice the deathly, awkwardly suffocating atmosphere in the courtyard today?
But he stubbornly thought: I haven't done anything wrong! Mingzhu isn't my biological sister. I just want to marry the woman I love, and I don't want her to take care of a cripple with a broken leg. What's wrong with that?!
Now that someone was finally willing to stand up and sincerely congratulate him, Qiao Lijun's tense heart finally felt a lot better. He pulled Qiao Mingzhu, who was standing next to him with her head down and a face full of shame and indignation, over to his side, raised his glass, and a few more points of light and a smile appeared on his cold, hard face: "Thank you, brother!"
"Brother Lijun, you're a real man! Success in both your career and love life!" The distant cousin smiled obsequiously, his eyes darting around, eager to climb the social ladder. "Brother, when you get promoted, you'll have to give me a hand! I've been thinking of taking on a construction project lately..."
The two exchanged pleasantries, one after the other.
This scene, witnessed by Qiao Shouguo, who was sitting in the main seat, made him feel nauseous!
This distant cousin is a notorious good-for-nothing, always idling around! And Lijun, that foolish son blinded by greed, actually believed he was there to offer blessings! Those two half-hearted flatteries were just a ploy to get something out of your father!
Qiao Shouguo gripped the wine cup tightly in his hand, his smile even more unsightly than a wailing funeral.
Today, among all the respectable and upright relatives in the family, which one was genuinely laughing? Who didn't think this was utterly disgusting and a disgrace to their ancestors? If it weren't for the slightest bit of face they owed to their relatives, they would have left long ago!
A perfectly good wedding banquet for a daughter had been held. Invitations had been sent out, the bill for the banquet had been paid, and the guests were all seated... but then the groom was suddenly changed to the groom's own son!
Unfortunately, he, as the father, couldn't slap him across the face; he could only pretend nothing had happened and had to go around smiling and drinking!
Qiao Shouguo had lived most of his life, and had been a powerful figure in the business world, but he had never been so humiliated as he was today, like a clown jumping around!
But what could he do?
These two wicked people have already consummated their relationship!
If he doesn't agree to this absurd wedding today, and if that brat Mingzhu can't handle the shock and calls the police, Lijun will definitely be charged with "hooliganism"!
Rather than letting this matter escalate to the police station and make our relatives laugh at the Qiao family's ruin, it's better to let things continue as they are.
At least once you're married, it becomes a family matter, and you can at least manage to smooth things over on the surface.
"Sigh..." Qiao Shouguo let out a long sigh, picked up the wine cup, tilted his head back, and drank the spicy liquor in one gulp, his eyes turning red from the spiciness.
Sitting next to her husband, Qin Fangfang felt a pang of anguish as she looked at his face, which looked like he was in agony.
She knew her husband valued his pride most, and what happened today was even more painful than being skinned alive.
"I can only make the best of a bad situation..." Qin Fangfang twisted her fingers and muttered to herself.
This banquet, which made everyone feel like they were sitting on pins and needles, was barely managed to be eaten for a little over an hour.
With such a scandal involving the Qiao family, no one wanted to get involved, so they hurriedly stuffed a couple of bites of food into their mouths, and without even saying goodbye, they all slipped away as quickly as possible.
According to the old custom here, a wedding banquet is held twice, once at noon and once in the afternoon.
But by 2 p.m., the five or six tables of guests that were not full to begin with were now reduced to just a few relatives who usually mooch off customers.
Qin Fangfang stood in the empty courtyard, her heart aching.
She craned her neck and scanned the area, and was shocked to discover that even Qiao Shouguo's sister-in-law, Wang Liuqing, had secretly left with her two children!
"Pah!" Qin Fangfang finally couldn't hold back her anger, her eyes red as she cursed, "We're family, after all! You won't even give us this much face! You're a whole family of cold-hearted ingrates! Qiao Shouguo! Open your eyes and look at your sister-in-law! Does she look down on Lijun that much? She won't even stay for a bite at the banquet tonight!"
