Chapter 58: Embarrassed Me
On the day of my father-in-law's birthday party, I was escorted by the deputy warden to eat for free.
Of course there are red envelopes, the most exquisite, luxurious and gold-gilded ones.
The person greeting the guest is the one I least like to see - Gao Yuanyuan.
I handed the big red envelope to her and wanted to go into the hall with the deputy warden.
Today, Gao Yuanyuan didn't look at me, but opened my red envelope hurriedly. After taking a look, she shouted to me: "Xiao Xiaohua, stop right here."
I stopped.
"I asked you why your red envelope is so light. The birthday gift you gave to my father-in-law was actually a white note." Gao Yuanyuan's voice was not low.
I corrected: "It looks like a red stripe."
"I sent away the beggar and gave him a hundred-dollar bill, but you turned out to be a white note, you, you, you. Do you still want to face me?" Gao Yuanyuan thought to herself, I own the Michelin restaurant industry, no matter how stingy I am, I will always make a move. The starting price is one million US dollars. Otherwise, she wouldn't even bother to send me an invitation.
I stuffed a piece of red paper into the red envelope and wrote a birthday gift of US$10,000. Not even a check. It's just that no one wants to ask for food.
I am me, this is the reality of me.
With all the guests coming in and out, it was inconvenient for Gao Yuanyuan to loudly announce my white note written on red paper to the public. It would be a disgrace to the Qian family. His face turned red and white with anger.
I reminded Gao Yuanyuan: "Look at the reverse side." It was written on the reverse side that it would be given to me when I am released from prison.
At this time, I no longer paid attention to Gao Yuanyuan's expression, and went in grandly with the deputy warden.
If I don't give Gao Yuanyuan face, she can't give me face either. The deputy warden and I were seated at the last table of the banquet.
I looked around, but no one knew me, and I didn't know anyone. I guess they were just the kind of people who didn't have a lot of gifts.
Thinking about the past years, Gao Yuanyuan, who treated me as a son-in-law, didn't treat me well. I'm used to this kind of treatment.
I was bored and waiting for the table to start when a handsome young man came behind me.
I turned my head and took a closer look. There was a young man, a smiling Millennial girl.
Today, she was wearing a very decent 3/4 navy blue evening dress with a light-colored shirt as a base. Hair is tied up and fixed with two hairpins.
Take a quick look and you will see a living little piece of meat. If you look closely, you will see that the beautiful girl is dressed in men's clothing and has an eye-catching demeanor.
Millennium Girl and I were both amazed that we could have such a chance encounter in the land of China.
I introduced the deputy eye warden: "This is my colleague."
Millennium Girl smiled lightly but did not reveal my identity.
It's possible that Millennium Girl didn't know the deputy warden, but the deputy warden must know the relationship between me and Millennium Girl. He joked: "Why don't you give me a hug when we meet like this?"
It was impossible for me to be too intimate with Millennium Girl on such an occasion, and she did not go as far as the deputy warden wanted. She just said enthusiastically: "Go over there, I will introduce Director Zhang and the female director of the "Pervert and Puppet" crew. I’d like to introduce you to Maruko No. 2.”
It wouldn't be normal if Millennium Girl didn't have any enthusiasm after seeing me. She held my hand and her fingers kept trembling in my palm with excitement.
I held Millennium Girl's little hand tightly and declined: "I won't go there. I don't like greeting strangers."
Millennium Girl didn't force me, and turned around and went back to her seat.
Director Zhang and I looked at each other intentionally or unintentionally. Because of the distance, there was no change in our expressions. There was also a woman sitting next to Director Zhang. She has a petite body and a pretty face with baby fat. She is a cute petite beauty. I guess she must be Xiaowanzi, her person is just like her stage name.
The time waiting for the table to start is boring, not to mention that I don’t know any of the people at the table, and I’m too lazy to strike up a conversation. What can I say? Do you want to tell the strangers at the same table that I am a criminal in custody and I am here to have a meal today?
It’s not my fault that I scared you all so much that you couldn’t eat.
I was looking around, and there was a person, and it was someone I really didn't want to see - Xiaoshuai. Why is he here? It seems that there is a little excitement today.
A mini-orgasm is unavoidable, I had already foreseen it, but this method was a bit deliberate.
Although it was my father-in-law's birthday, the old man from the Qian family didn't show up, which obviously meant that his class and status had dropped a lot.
While waiting for the arrival of Mr. Qian, a temporary entertainment program was added.
This entertainment program is to announce in public who so and so has given my father-in-law how many birthday gifts or gifts.
There is nothing wrong with adding this entertainment program, but the announced sequence arrangement put me on the stove.
Other people don't pay much attention to it, and I don't care about it either.
Xiaoshuai’s birthday gift is a custom-made birthday peach made of pure 24K pure gold, weighing a full 1 kilogram. Obviously, Xiaoshuai spent a lot of money this time. Such a move is equivalent to 500,000 yuan in Chinese currency, which is more than 70,000 US dollars when converted into US dollars.
It would be strange if Xiaoshuai had no intention of taking such a move. What could he want? Isn’t it just the money promised by my mother-in-law?
Is there any mistake? Qian Yingying is my wife, okay? Although it is in name only, it is a legal relationship recognized and protected by the law.
Who do you think you are?
I just finished reporting Xiaoshuai’s gift, and next I reported my name, Xiao Xiaohua. This arrangement is deliberate and deliberate.
Whether it is ranking of positions or ranking of relatives, I should not be ranked behind Xiaoshuai.
He is nothing, at most he is a friend, and I am my father-in-law’s son-in-law.
What was even more outrageous was that he reported the amount of my gift as US$10,000, held up my piece of red paper, and announced: This is a white note. No one knows when the implication will be fulfilled. Today I am just a freeloader.
Comparing the sequence of this magical operation, I was really embarrassed.
I can tolerate it, but that doesn’t mean that all the relatives and friends present will not comment on me.
Who is Xiao Xiaohua?
Relatives and friends who knew me all rushed to answer: "The son-in-law of the second daughter of the Qian family."
"I also heard that Xiao Xiaohua had a PC outside and killed a chicken. Now he is in jail abroad." Someone was accusing him: "He is in jail, right? It seems that someone saw him coming to attend a birthday party today. ,How can it be."
"Where is it? Is there a seat for Xiao Xiaohua on Qian Yingying's table? I saw Xiaoshuai and he sat at that table."
Some people were not convinced: "Isn't Xiao Xiaohua sitting at the bottom of the table?"
Oh——, too many eyes are turning to me.
What is Xiaohua laughing at? It's just a joke of the Qian family.
I have a thick skin anyway, because I have experienced so many things like this in the Qian family, so many times that I have become a habit. But it is an indisputable fact that Qian Yingying's face is indeed extremely ugly. During the dinner, she was on pins and needles.
This kind of seating arrangement is not something she can control. She has objected, but in front of her mother-in-law, such objections are invalid.
Qian Yingying was destined to have no appetite today and couldn't eat anything.
I was different. How could the food in prison be compared to today? I could afford it.
Someone whispered the news to my father-in-law that Mr. Qian was itching and could not come today.
Mr. Qian couldn't attend his father-in-law's birthday party, which was a bit regretful for my father-in-law.
Let’s have a party, what are you waiting for?
As soon as I heard that the banquet was about to begin, I was enjoying my meal, but the deputy warden asked: "How can you afford to be treated like this?"
With meat in my mouth, I answered vaguely: "Just be content. Compared with the prison food, why can't I eat it?"
Faced with my heartlessness, the deputy warden sighed and said nothing more.
The other people sitting at the table obviously despised me and were unwilling to talk to me. They were ashamed to sit with me.
