Chapter 72
"Is it because of Uncle Tang's condition?" Zhang Jiao asked.
Chu Yan put her hands behind her head, tapped her chin, and confirmed Zhang Jiao's guess, "The doctor said that Uncle Tang's condition has deteriorated and it won't be long.
Tang Qiu discussed with me whether we could move the engagement date forward, and I agreed. "
"Are you happy then?" Zhang Jiao didn't care about anything else, she cared more about Chu Yan's mood.
She stood on her toes, turned the chair to face Chu Yan, and used her feet to act as brakes to resist the rotational inertia of the chair.
"Why are you unhappy?" Chu Yan looked back with a puzzled expression, "In my opinion, whether you are engaged or not, you are getting along with Tang Qiu. This will not put any pressure on me."
As if she guessed her thoughts, Chu Yan smiled again, "You don't think that I agreed to Tang Qiu's proposal because of my moral values, do you?"
Zhang Jiao tilted her head. She did have the slightest idea of this. She was afraid that Chu Yan agreed because Uncle Tang dragged his sick body to ask for marriage, and she couldn't bear it and couldn't bear to refuse.
"You are thinking too much! I have a very good relationship with Tang Qiu. Besides, if I wasn't willing, who could morally kidnap me?"
Chu Yan shook her feet happily. Tang Qiu had been showing his kindness through actions. There was nothing she didn't want to do.
"That's the best!" Zhang Jiao retracted her feet, turned the hanging chair back to its original position, and even started to play on the swing.
The lifting ring rubbed against the fixed rod, making a squeaking sound, which also brought the time to August silently.
Chu Yan's engagement date was mentioned in early August in the Gregorian calendar from the Mid-Autumn Festival, about a month in advance.
Finally, it was decided on August [-]rd, which was an auspicious day to get married.
Zhang Yun specifically asked a Feng Shui master to calculate it, and the Feng Shui master said that the [-]rd was the most suitable day in early August.
The engagement banquet is also scheduled to be held at Zhang Jiao's Ningguo Hotel.
First, because Ningguo Hotel is one of the top hotels in Hong Kong City, it would be more respectable to hold an engagement banquet here.
Secondly, because the wealth does not go to outsiders, you can't go to outsiders' restaurants to book banquets for your family's weddings!
On August [-]rd, Ningguo Hotel was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations.
Zhang Jiao specifically told Brother Zhou that today the Hong Kong Island main store will not accept outside customers, only this business.
She came over early in the morning.
As the woman's sisters, she and Chu Chan have a glorious and arduous task today - to receive female guests.
Sitting in the hall, Zhang Jiao couldn't help but yawn.
"You didn't sleep well last night, okay?" Chu Chan didn't sleep well either. When she got up in the morning, she was worried that she was not energetic enough and poured herself a large cup of coffee.
Zhang Jiao hummed and wiped the tears caused by yawning with a tissue, "I didn't fall asleep all night, and the genius woke up immediately."
She couldn't explain why she didn't fall asleep. Anyway, she lay in bed tossing and turning for a long time last night before she drifted off to sleep.
"No, I said before that we would hold a banquet at night, but you didn't listen to me. Now I'm so noisy that I haven't even gotten enough sleep."
Chu Chan was so provoked by Zhang Jiao that she yawned and began to complain unconsciously.
"Don't say such useless things. It's Yanyan's big day! It's unlucky for you not to say something nice!" Zhang Jiao hammered her and asked her to say something auspicious.
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, bah! Children's words are unbridled!"
"You have the nerve to talk like a child, so shameless!"
Chu Chan was thick-skinned, "You are a 23-year-old child!"
"By the way, where did Yanyan go? We are all here, why didn't we see her figure?" Chu Chan turned her head and looked around.
Zhang Jiao rolled her eyes at her, "Are you stupid? You went out in the morning without thinking? She is talking to the elders! Isn't she the one who entertains the elders of these two families?"
Chu Chan knocked her confused mind and finally remembered the arrangements she had made before, "I didn't get enough sleep, so I forgot about this."
It was arranged yesterday for her and Zhang Jiao to receive the rich daughter of her work partner.The aunt received the female elders, while Chu Yan greeted the female relatives of the Chu and Tang families in the lounge.
She didn't sleep well, and some of her memories were fragmented.
Zhang Jiao was speechless. Just as he was about to say a few words to her, voices came from outside the hall.
"The guests are here, cheer up!"
As soon as she finished speaking, guests entered the banquet hall.
As soon as they saw Zhang Jiao and Chu Chan, they immediately gathered around them enthusiastically.
"Oh, Miss Zhang, long time no see! You are still so beautiful and radiant!"
"Ms. Zhang, are you single now? Do you have anyone you like? Why don't I introduce it to you! I know an outstanding young man who is just right for you!"
"Miss Chu is really young and promising! I heard that you are already an inspector. Ouch, you are really amazing!"
"Yes, I heard from your mother that you also have a boyfriend? Then you have to hold on tight! Don't miss it."
"Why are you talking about all this? Let me tell you, a man must be independent, and a woman must be even more independent! Miss Zhang, I heard that you recently set up a company, what is it for? Do you think there is a lack of investment? I This is just a little bit of money..."
Zhang Jiao's head was pounding after hearing this. She really wanted to escape!
Chu Chan wasn't much better, but she could still hold her own, and she was good at talking, so she could answer all the guests' words.
"Generally, they are not as outstanding as your children. My work has just started to improve, so it is really not worth mentioning." "I already have a boyfriend, so there is no rush! I heard that your children also got a girlfriend some time ago. You’re home, when are you getting married? Early next year? Oh, you’re really up to date!”
Zhang Jiao looked at Chu Chan with admiration, talking nonsense to others and lying to ghosts. This is the charm of an inspector!
Loved it!
Zhang Jiao had a lively chat with these ladies, and finally the banquet was held. Zhang Jiao happily led everyone to sit down as if she was relieved.
Then he quickly sneaked to the lounge to hide.
She gently closed the door to the lounge, moved her jaw to relax her muscles, and rubbed her stiff cheeks vigorously.
These ladies are so chatty!
Chu Chan followed closely behind her and opened the door to the lounge, only to see her with her mouth open and her hands frantically rubbing her face.
He said in a dumbfounded voice, "Why don't you just smile and talk to people? What's the point? Look at how you're not living up to expectations!"
Zhang Jiao was startled by her sudden opening of the door, and was scolded again, feeling very unhappy.
"I'm just not used to it!" Zhang Jiao coquettishly said.She doesn't like chatting with people she doesn't have much friendship with.
Chu Chan reached out softly and rubbed her cheek, "Just hold on for a little longer, and then everyone will disperse after dinner."
"Yeah, I know." Zhang Jiao nodded, "I don't know why there are so many rules, why not keep them simple!"
There is an engagement and a wedding, and in between there are countless procedures for accepting gifts and entering the house.
This alone is enough for Zhang Jiao not to want to get married.
"It's been passed down from our ancestors! Some things naturally have their own meaning. Just think about it from another angle."
Zhang Jiao said she couldn't figure it out.
"By the way, when are you and Meng Pu going to do it? If I had known, it would be better for you to do it together! I can save myself from suffering."
Chu Yan was so angry that she pinched her, "What nonsense are you talking about? You are the one who suffered when I got engaged and got married! You really deserve a beating!"
Zhang Jiao gave up, "I was wrong! I was wrong! Why didn't Meng Pu come today? Isn't this the time for him to show his sovereignty!"
"He's here! But this time he's here as a guest. We haven't officially met the parents yet, so it's not appropriate to let him come over to help."
Moreover, Chu Chan felt that she and Meng Pu were different from Yanyan and Tang Qiu. They had only known each other for a short time and needed time to get along.
If you want to go further, you still have some way to go.
Zhang Jiao was puzzled, "Then why don't you take him to meet his parents? Doesn't the ugly son-in-law not want to meet his father-in-law and mother-in-law?"
Chu Chan felt a little guilty. Meng Pu did say that she wanted to visit her parents, but she pushed it back.
"Let's wait for some time before taking him home during the Mid-Autumn Festival. And even if we meet the parents, it's still early for us! Don't worry, the day of your suffering is still far away!"
She could see Zhang Jiao's evil intentions at a glance.
Zhang Jiao waved her hands sternly, "What are you talking about! I am concerned about the progress of your relationship and I am worried about you!"
"Haha!" Chu Chan sneered, "Then just wait! It's still early for me and him! Wait until when I get promoted and I can beat him before we talk about the engagement."
Zhang Jiao gave her a sympathetic look, "I guess we'll have to wait."
"He is your boss. Is it possible that if he doesn't get promoted, he can let you get promoted first? Just think about it and you'll know it's impossible."
"There's no rush, that's it!" Chu Chan shrugged indifferently, she didn't have to worry about getting married!
Zhang Jiao spread her hands, "Okay, okay, don't be in a hurry. It's me who's in a hurry!"
The emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is in a hurry!
"Come on, let's go, let's go eat too. Aren't you hungry?" Chu Chan hugged her funny and walked toward the restaurant.
Her stomach was already growling.
Zhang Jiao put her arms directly on Chu Chan's shoulders and shamelessly put her whole body weight on Chu Chan. "I saw so many people at the table and I didn't want to eat."
She nods when she sees a lot of people!
Chu Chan half-hugged the lazy guy in a cooperative manner, and complained, "You are just a paper tiger, you will show off your power in front of us!"
"Luanluanluo! I am a paper tiger and I am proud of it!"
Chu Chan was speechless, "...Idiot! What are you afraid of when you sit at the main table? Aren't they all people you are familiar with?"
Zhang Jiao thought about it, she was qualified to sit at the main table!
This kind of relaxed thought suddenly swelled when she returned to the banquet hall and saw Chu Yan moving between the guests with ease and ease.
Contrast makes me look happier.
Zhang Jiao patted her chest. Fortunately, the person engaged was not her!
Thank you for your votes!Thanks for the support!
