It didn't take long for the guests invited by my mother's family to arrive quickly.

There was this boss and that boss, all of them looked like business elites in suits and ties. They stretched out their hands magnanimously, took out a thick red envelope and handed it to the bride and groom, and said some extremely grand words.

"Uncle Zhang, please come inside. It's at the table on the right side of the stage."

"Uncle Zhao, please come inside. I'll go over and greet you later..."

"Uncle Gao, I didn't expect you to come too? You are a distinguished guest. You must eat and drink well this time."

As the voice of greeting rang out, all the bosses stepped into the banquet hall wearing shiny big leather shoes.

The bride, Wang Cuimei, held a stack of thick wallets and glanced at Lin Peng next to her quite proudly. She seemed to be saying, "What do you think? I'll just say that you are poor relatives, right?" The total gift money is not as generous as this.

Lin Peng pursed his lips and said nothing, but he was not angry at all. Nonsense, who would be angry after receiving so much money?

At the same time, inside the banquet hall, Lin Laowu finally appeased his relatives in Jeju and sat them down together. Seeing that no more trouble was caused, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. tone.

Yuan Youqin squeezed in between her husband and son and couldn't help snorting: "Look at your stingy relatives!"

John Zhenghong: ...

John Qin watched happily, but he didn't dare to laugh, for fear that his mother would turn a corner and burn him.

But the next second, when a group of people in suits and leather shoes came to the banquet hall, Boss John, who was only twenty years old, suddenly found someone staring at him.

"Mr. John, are you coming to the wedding banquet too?"

"Do we know each other?"

"I'm Gao Lingxi. I met you at the reception. Have you forgotten? I'm the second batch to join our first-stop marketing."

John Qin thought for a while and had a slight impression: "Oh, it's Mr. Gao. What a coincidence that I can meet you here. Let me introduce to you. This is my dad. This is my mom. We are. ...They are distant relatives that the groom's family cannot reach."

"Mr. John is so funny, and my uncle and aunt are quite young." Gao Lingxi couldn't help but compliment.

John Zhenghong and Yuan Youqin looked at each other, and then at Gao Lingxi's shining forehead, thinking, isn't this right? Why does this eldest nephew look older than us? You must be in your forties or fifties, right?

At the same time, several people in suits also started to come around and say hello, saying hello to Mr. John, uncles and aunts, and the couple couldn't stand it.

You should agree, I kind of want to call you brother, but you should not agree. They are not old enough to be called uncle or aunt by these people. In short, the atmosphere is quite weird.

"Uncle, do you smoke?"

"Uh...I don't smoke bro."

After a while, the bride and groom, plus Niu Xianglan and Lin Laowu, had finished welcoming the guests. They packed up their things and returned to the banquet hall, preparing to greet everyone for the banquet. However, when they arrived at the stage, all four of them were stunned.

Because the VIP table that had been set aside before was full, but the ones sitting were not the bosses, but the "poor relatives" of Jeju in their eyes.

Seeing this scene, Wang Cuimei's expression changed instantly: "What's going on? Where are my uncles?"

"I don't know, I just arranged for them to sit at the last table." Lin Laowu was also confused.

"I told you that my uncles are all distinguished guests. Didn't you make arrangements well?!"

"Cuimei, don't worry, I'll go ask."

Lin Laowu quickly comforted his daughter-in-law, and immediately went to a relative from Jeju: "Second brother, weren't you at the table at the back at the beginning? Didn't you feel comfortable sitting there? Did you move over here?"

The second brother was the one who scolded the most fiercely just now, and he didn't have a good look towards him: "I don't know!"

"this..."

A skinny old man sitting next to him suddenly spoke: "Lin Laowu, don't blame your second brother for showing off to you. What you did was indeed unreasonable. What's wrong, our relatives in Jeju are no longer relatives?" If you had told me earlier, we wouldn't have come if you had told me earlier!"

Lin Laowu laughed apologetically, saying in his heart that it would be better if you didn't come. I could save a table, but he still said politely: "It's mainly because there are too many people here. I don't understand, but where are the guests at this table going?" Already?"

"Are you talking about those people in suits? At the table at the back, they didn't know what was going on, but they shamelessly changed with us and even gave me a box of Chinese seeds."

"?"

Lin Laowu was confused, but he still told his daughter-in-law truthfully.

Wang Cuimei didn't believe it immediately after hearing it, what's the matter? The best ones don't sit in the front row. Big bosses worth tens of millions of dollars are trying to squeeze into the pillar seats.

At this moment, Wang Cuilan's parents, Lin Peng's parents-in-law, came over and pulled them aside with a very serious expression.

"What's going on over there?"

"What's wrong, Dad?"

Wang Jianxiang lowered his voice: "Mr. Gao, Mr. Zhao, Mr. Liu... and more than 20 of their family members were sitting at the table at the back. They were crowded like chickens that couldn't open their wings. What do you think? of?"

Lin Laowu couldn't help but speak at this time: "My father-in-law, listen to me, we were originally arranged to be in the front row, but it is said that the bosses took the initiative to switch with our relatives here."

"You took the initiative to change?"

"yes."

Wang Jianxiang scratched his head and thought to himself, this is so fucking weird. These bosses usually have to be in the front row for everything they do. Last time they almost got into a fight over the chief seat at dinner. How could they be willing to sit at the back?

But there is nothing you can do at this time, because the hotel waiter has already started serving food, and you definitely can't adjust your seat at this time.

Wang Jianxiang took a deep breath and fell into silence with a very ugly expression on his face.

Seeing this scene, Lin Laowu and Niu Xianglan felt a little uneasy. They wanted to say something, but they didn't know what to say.

Don't look at the fact that her mother's family has so much dowry, a car and a house, it seems very majestic, but in fact Niu Xianglan and Lin Laowu have been looking at her face during this time, and they are almost feeling aggrieved.

But this is the in-laws, and the in-laws are rich, what can you do? I can only endure it.

After a while, the previous procedures were completed step by step. Wang Cuimei took off her wedding dress, put on a cheongsam, and began to prepare for the toast.

Who should I pay homage to first?

Of course, this is a tribute to those business bosses.

Originally, according to the established route, they could just start toasting from the first table and move forward, but now they have to toast from the last table forward.

So, the groom carried the plate, the bride carried the wine pot, followed by Wang Jianxiang and Lin Laowu, and went to the last table in a mighty manner.

As soon as he walked behind the hall pillar, Wang Jianxiang stopped looking.

Good guy, Mr. Gao is already fat. He can't squeeze into the table for twenty people. He is leaning over to pick up the dishes, which makes people feel distressed just looking at him.

"Gao...Mr. Gao?"

Gao Lingxi didn't even need to turn around. He turned his head and saw Wang Jianxiang and the others: "Old Wang, you can save money by marrying your daughter. There are twenty people at a table. Don't tell me, the food you are rushing to eat is delicious. Damn it." Mom is awesome!"

Wang Jianxiang knew that he had been thrown off, but he could only apologize and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Gao, you were originally assigned to sit at the table in front of me, but I don't know why you sat at the wrong table."

"Whatever, it's not me who's embarrassed anyway."

Seeing that her biological father was being thrown away, Wang Cuimei glared at Lin Peng fiercely, and even had the urge to curse him in front of everyone.

Look at what your family is doing. Do you understand how valuable my dad’s connections are? And you poor relatives are so crowded, and you still compete with these bosses for food. Don’t you know how much you weigh?

For the first time, Wang Cuimei felt aggrieved and wanted to cry. She said in her heart that it took me eight lifetimes of bad luck to marry into your family.

As a result, at this moment, John Qin suddenly came over with a wine glass: "Why don't you drink, Mr. Gao? Come on, let's have a drink."

When Gao Lingxi heard this, he immediately dropped his chopsticks, picked up the wine glass, and went to meet it. But before he touched it, he let out a yelp, and then used his other hand to hold John Qin's glass, refusing to let him lower it to his own. Cup rim.

Seeing this scene, Wang Jianxiang and Lin Laowu were stunned for a moment, looking at John Qin with astonishment on their faces.

Wang Cuimei also seemed to feel the subtle change in the atmosphere. She looked at this scene dumbly, wondering why the poor relative of Lin Peng's family had the highest rim of the cup.

John Qin was also bad enough. He said in his heart that you are so fucking stingy, which made my mother very angry, so she picked up the wine glass and changed the direction.

"Come on, Mr. Li, one of us will go."

"Hey, Mr. John, you're so polite..."

"Come on, Mr. Zhao..."

"Yo yo yo..."

"Come here, Mr. Fang..."

"Yo yo yo..."

John Qin held the wine glass and swirled it around. Everyone at the table drank, but no one was willing to let John Qin's glass be lower than his own. The whole family was so excited that they didn't dare to breathe.

What happened next was similar. When Wang Cuimei finished pouring the wine, everyone was waiting for John Qin to take the lead, and John Qin was waiting for John Zhenghong to take the lead.

Father John was also confused, but he just felt that today’s wine tasted particularly delicious!

After toasting, they did not rush to the next table, but found a place to relax for a while. Suddenly they realized that there seemed to be a golden phoenix among the poor relatives in Jeju.

"I remembered, Linchuan Business Gang..."

Wang Cuimei glanced at her biological father: "Dad, what is the Linchuan Business Gang?"

Wang Jianxiang took out a cigarette and lit it: "Some time ago, the Linchuan city government issued a document saying that it wanted to transform the economy and step into emerging industries. It established a Linchuan business gang that all Linchuan bosses actively joined."

"Then what?"

"It seems that he was the one who initiated that business gang. Nowadays, the business community in Linchuan is all united and seems to be represented by him. Do you remember your uncle Qian who is in the seafood business? I have been queuing for a week and still can't get through. He'll see you above."

Lin Laowu and his son looked at each other. Although they didn't know much about the Linchuan Merchant Gang, they knew that John Qin's family seemed to have more status than his in-laws.

If I had known this was the case, I would have just opened two more tables. What would I do to save this money? It's a good thing now, the most valuable people are all crowded to eat at the table with the most people.

Brother Lin Peng sighed dullly and glanced at the cousin's brother sitting in front of the boss, walking back and forth, chatting and laughing, and his expression gradually became sad.

After the banquet, everyone had almost eaten. Some had eaten well, some were angry, and some were not full, but it was almost time.

Seeing that the show was about to end, John Zhenghong patted his belly and suddenly realized a problem: "The belt Nan Shu gave me seems to be still at Lin Laowu's house."

"You came without a belt?" John Qin looked stunned.

"No, Lin Peng said that my belt was fake and it was bad for people to see it, so he gave me a new one."

As John Zhenghong spoke, he called Lin Peng: "Peng, we will leave soon and will not go to your house again. Can you bring me the belt back?"

Lin Peng was stunned for a moment: "Uncle, just use mine. I think this one suits you quite well. Yours is too young."

"My daughter-in-law gave it to me. No matter how good yours is, I can't exchange it with you."

John Qin: "?"

Lin Peng was a little embarrassed: "But I can't leave yet. I have to send it off to my relatives later. Otherwise, I will take it back to you before the Chinese New Year."

John Zhenghong scratched his head: "That's okay..."

John Qin almost choked: "Dad, you are too ambitious. That belt is worth thirty thousand yuan."
Yuan Youqin was also startled: "Didn't you say three hundred yuan?"

John Qin rubbed his nose: "Aren't I afraid that you won't accept it if I say too much? But think about it, can the thing Nancy Feng gave you be fake?"

John Zhenghong turned to look at Lin Peng: "Peng, why don't I go back with you to get it."

"Uncle, don't worry. I'll make some arrangements and then go back with you. You guys wait here for me for a while."

After Lin Peng finished speaking, he ran to the backstage and bumped into Wang Cuimei and his father-in-law: "What are you doing in such a hurry?"

"Uncle John's belt was left at our house. He said it was worth 30,000 yuan. Is there really such an expensive belt?"

Wang Cuimei thought of the poor relative's LV, and her face changed instantly: "If it is really possible, look at the attitude of the bosses just now, it may indeed be true."

Lin Peng swallowed: "Forget it, I'd better go back and get it. I don't worry about others going there."

Seeing Lin Peng leave, Wang Cuimei turned to look at Wang Jianxiang, feeling aggrieved like a fat man weighing more than 200 pounds: "Dad, they seem to have a great relative. Will I be bullied in the future?"

"It's okay, it's not that exaggerated. I'll just get scolded a few times and I won't talk back."


After leaving the hotel, Lin Peng drove back home very quickly and rummaged through boxes and cabinets to find his belt. As a result, something terrible happened. The belt was missing.

Impossible, he clearly remembered that he put it on the bedside table.

Crazy and crazy, Lin Peng searched everywhere with an expression as if he had lost his wife, which made the relatives in Linchuan who came back from dinner feel confused.

"Pengpeng, what are you looking for?"

"Look for the belt."

"Hey, a belt. I'll look for it later. Come and talk to aunt. We'll be leaving soon."

"Aunt, that belt belongs to Uncle John, and it costs 30,000 yuan!"

Hearing these words, the relatives in Linchuan looked at each other, and it took them a while to react. Are they crazy? Thirty thousand yuan for a belt? How can we relatives have such a family?

Uncle John? John Zhenghong's family?

Lin Peng was so anxious that he continued to search without having time to explain. As a result, after searching for it, he found that the belt was being held in the hands of a child, and he was shaking it.

...

Five minutes later, Lin Peng came downstairs with the belt, but it was not just him who came to give the belt, but also all the relatives in Linchuan.

They had already carefully looked at the 30,000 yuan belt before they came, and they also wanted to take a serious look at what kind of waist it looked like. As soon as they went out, they saw a family of three sitting in an Audi, and their mood suddenly changed. It's very complicated.

Rich relatives will not hope that poor relatives will get better and better, because through long-term contact, a targeted sense of superiority has been developed. To put it simply, these relatives in Linchuan have become accustomed to showing off to their relatives in Jeju. .

But it wasn't until Lin Peng's wedding banquet that they discovered that the superiority they had was actually nothing. The feeling of being licked in the face was really suffocating.

"Masahiro, don't be in a hurry to go back, right? Come to my house and have some tea before you leave!"

"Yes, Youqin, I haven't seen you for so many years, and I haven't even had time to say a word to you yet."

"Cousin, don't leave today. Come and stay at my house. I remember when I lived in the village, you liked to eat the chicken stewed with mushrooms I made the most!"

"Youqin..."

"Masahiro..."

"John Qin, my aunt hugged you when you were a child. Why don't you say hello to your aunt?"

Looking at the relatives in Linchuan who suddenly became extremely affectionate, John Qinxin finished saying that during the Chinese New Year this year, there must be a big party at home.

You can tell by looking at this posture. When they first entered the door, all these people ignored them. Even if their parents took the initiative to say hello, they just raised their eyelids.

It's a good time now, I can't wait to get under my car.

I found that everyone thought I was stuck on the last

Chapter, which was uncomfortable. They scolded me and scared me so much that I couldn’t sleep all night. I quickly and slowly wrote a
Chapter. The main idea was to correct it if there were any mistakes. Now I’m confused. , I’m so sleepy, I can’t hold it any longer, so I’m going to catch up on my sleep. I think I’ll wake up in the afternoon. Please forgive me. I didn’t intentionally stutter in the last
Chapter. It’s really where I wrote it. Finally, I asked for monthly votes with a shy face.
