Chapter 95 Engagement
The engagement banquet was held in a high-profile and hidden way.

It is hidden because the location of the hotel and the engagement scene are not luxurious, but it is high-profile because most of the guests who come are rich and powerful.

Yang Yi and Meng Xiao greeted people at the entrance of the banquet hall, while Yang's father and Yang's mother talked with some elders inside.

The elders who came in would praise Meng Xiao, but Meng Xiao just smiled faintly, listening to what they said about the two being a golden boy and a jade girl, there was no disturbance in his heart.

Meng Xun brought a few classmates and roommates to congratulate her, Zhao Guoqing stood out, and several boys greeted their elders and sat alone at a table.

"Brother Yi, sister-in-law, congratulations." It was rare for Zhao Pingxuan to be serious today, wearing a black suit and combing his hair neatly, but he revealed his true nature when he opened his mouth: "Brother Yi, call your brother tonight, let's go out If you don't get drunk, you won't return."

Before Yang Yi could answer, Zhao Pingxuan's sister behind him slapped Zhao Pingxuan on the back of the head with a slap, and said disgustedly: "If you don't get drunk and don't go home, if you want to spoil other people's husbands in front of their wives, you don't want to imitate other people's husbands. ? Who do you call sister-in-law? Sister-in-law is sister-in-law, speak human words to me!"

This sister is extraordinary, with the air of a heroine.

Meng Xiao knew her, her name was Zhao Jingyan, and she was Zhao Pingxuan's biological sister.

However, there is a ten-year age difference between the two. Zhao Jingyan is 32 years old this year and is still unmarried.

The last time I saw her was at a poker game, Zhao Jingyan looked arrogant, but she was actually a nice person.

Meng Xiao liked this elder sister inexplicably in her heart, and wanted to repair her relationship, she smiled and defended Zhao Pingxuan and said: "Actually, what he said is correct, I am still a few months younger than him, so there is nothing wrong with being called sister-in-law."

Zhao Pingxuan was grateful in his heart, this little sister-in-law was really understanding.

"My younger brother is a stingy master. If I don't deal with him properly, he would have gone to heaven!" Zhao Jingyan poked Zhao Pingxuan's back of the head with her fingernails, and the latter let himself be slaughtered. His sister hated "little brother" "This word, he said "little sister-in-law" out of complacency today, which must have hit his sister's restricted area.

A man came not far away, he was less than [-] years old, and his appearance was outstanding. Meng Xiao turned around and asked Yang Yi who this person was, but Yang Yi didn't know him either.

The man stopped beside Zhao Jingyan, took Zhao Jingyan's hand to tidy up her younger brother, saved her younger brother from the fire and water, and asked, "Pingxuan, what did you do to provoke your sister?"

Zhao Pingxuan muttered, but didn't make it clear.

Zhao Jingyan let Zhao Pingxuan go, and introduced to Meng Xiao: "This is my fiancé, Xie Li, who works in the city court. I will invite you two to my wedding in a few days."

fiancé?She remembered that Zhao Jingyan hadn't had a boyfriend before, and she was going to get married so soon?
But this is someone else's business, Meng Xiao has no right to intervene.

"Hello, congratulations to both of you."

As the name suggests, Xie Li is gentle and polite. His suit is flat and sharp, and he wears gold-rimmed glasses. He is gentle and polite. He behaves like a gentleman and shakes hands with Yang Yi and Meng Xiao.

He is very much like the handsome noble son in the TV series. This kind of person married the eldest princess of the Zhao family. It should be the combination of a prince and a princess in people's imagination, Meng Xiao thought.

This kind of person is an untouchable existence of ordinary people's life. They seem to be approachable, but they are actually aloof.

However, Xie Li's voice is very familiar, she seems to have heard it somewhere.

At this time, Meng Xiao was not allowed to think too much, just as he sent the Zhao family siblings in, a new guest arrived.

She also met Uncle Du and his wife, who helped Meng Xun, and his son and daughter-in-law Bai Jin.

Uncle Du didn't mention anything about the past, he only said that he would ask Meng Xiaochang to ask Bai Jinjin to hang out with him when he was free.

Bai Jinjin is Xiaojiabiyu's type, most of the time it is Du Jun who is talking, and Bai Jinjin is listening.

In short, it is just a small white flower in the world, the feeling of straying into a rich peony garden.

The elders and the younger are all here, and each has his own play.

The juniors sat at the same table, chatting and joking, and Du Jun sat on the side of the juniors because his father was there today.

But he is also a high-ranking person, so many people have to look at Du Jun's face and talk, and the dinner table is a little depressed for a while.

Du Jun is also a sensible person, so he reluctantly ate two mouthfuls of the food sandwiched by Bai Jinjin, and left the banquet on the pretext of smoking.

It's not too late to come back when Yang Yi toasts.

Zhao Jingyan also had the same high position and weight. She had the final say on the affairs of the younger generation of the Zhao family. Zhao Pingxuan felt uncomfortable when she was here, and the central figure who was an active topic was missing in the whole scene.

The table was full of acquaintances, Zhao Pingxuan wanted to make fun of Yang Yi and Meng Xiao, but he couldn't hold back long ago.

Therefore, Xie Li received Zhao Pingxuan's distress signal, saying that Zhao Jingyan's makeup was a bit fancy, and he accompanied her to touch up her makeup.

When Zhao Jingyan left the table, Zhao Pingxuan completely let himself go.

However, Wu Yue who followed Meng Xiao still made Zhao Pingxuan feel uncomfortable.

A shameless and skinless low-class bastard, who can post any dead face!

……

It was said to be an engagement, but in fact the process was similar to that of ancient marriages. Meng Xiao followed Yang Yi and offered tea to Yang's father and Yang's mother.

"Dad, Mom, please drink tea." Meng Xiao knelt to serve tea, and Yang Yi knelt beside her.

Father Yang was kind and happy, and gave Meng Xiao a red envelope, and Meng Xiao turned around and gave the red envelope to Wu Yue behind him.

Wu Yue weighed it, the red envelope was not big and the inside was very thin, so she couldn't figure out what kind of change fee Meng Xiao's father-in-law gave.

Maybe nothing was given, just an empty shell, Wu Yue laughed secretly in her heart.

Mama Yang was more generous. Behind the three bodyguards in black, one of them took the portable safe and opened it. Inside was a black jewelry box. When he opened it, there was an emerald necklace and a bracelet inside.

Yang Ma picked up the necklace and showed it to Meng Xiao. Every bead was even and round, and the water color and luster were top-grade.

Meng Xiao didn't understand these things, only to hear someone exclaimed from behind: "This jadeite can buy a street!"

After hearing this sentence, Wu Yue stared at the emerald necklace with bright eyes.

Yang's mother said calmly: "Yang Yi talked about his girlfriend this year, and I specially went to England to bring it back. Meng Xiao, you will be the daughter-in-law of our family in the future. I will keep these things for you now. I hope you can do the same in the future." Pass it on to your daughter-in-law."

Saying that, he gave Meng Xiao another jade bracelet.

These words have two meanings. The first is to confirm Meng Xiao's identity, and the second is to give birth to a son.

"Thank you, Mom." Meng Xiao didn't say much, and knelt down to take the necklace box. Wu Yue wanted to take it, but was interrupted by Yang Yi, who asked the bodyguard to take it back.

Yang Ma leaned over and took Meng Xiao's hand, and brought her up. She was wearing the cheongsam repaired by Meng Xiao today, and she wore a pure white jade bracelet on her wrist. Yang Ma took the bracelet from her hand To Meng Xiao.

"Mom...?" Meng Xiao asked, she already gave a gift just now, and now give another one?
"Your family is weak, and today I acted as the elder of both parties. I gave this to you alone. In the future, you must stay by each other's side, be tolerant and considerate to each other." Yang Ma explained, turning her head and sternly teaching Yang Yi: " Once you have a wife, you have to support your man's backbone, do you hear me?!"

"I heard it, Mom." Yang Yi replied.

The two bracelets are worn one on the left and the other on the right, one is from the husband's family and the other is from the mother's family.

This pair of bracelets is enough to make everyone crazily jealous, Meng Xiao is really loved by Yang Ma.

Meng Xiao's eyes were hot, she lowered her head and gently wiped the corners of her eyes.

At least, she made the right choice.
