"Twenty-six million, twenty-six million!" The painter's wife smiled brightly and said loudly: "It seems that you are discerning and can see the artistic value of my husband's painting, but I think the two Sixteen million is still too low, has anyone offered a higher price?"
Seeing that this painting was about to fetch a higher price than the previous one, the painter's wife was naturally beaming and felt at ease.
Soon, a voice shouted: "Twenty-seven million!"
Everyone was shocked, and then they focused their attention on the person bidding!
Both Yu Ye and Lan Xiaoqing discovered that the bidder turned out to be Lan Xiaoqing's uncle!
Many people knew that he and Xu Xiaoyu were brothers and sisters, and they had begun to whisper and speculate in private.
However, what Uncle Lan Xiaoqing said next made everyone dispel their suspicions.
Because, Uncle Lan Xiaoqing actually said to Xu Xiaoyu provocatively: "Sister, are you still planning to bid? I guess you have no money, hahahaha!"
Xu Xiaoyu's expression was gloomy, it was obvious that her brother had hit a sore spot.
Her husband only gave her a quota of 20 million, and she had to pay the 5 million out of her own pocket.
However, she could only spend a total of 25 million.
No matter how high it is, she won't be able to get it out.
Seeing that her brother was embarrassing herself in public, Xu Xiaoyu was a little annoyed and couldn't help but said: "Brother, I advise you, although your family has money, don't lose it all."
Lan Xiaoqing's uncle's face changed and he snorted coldly and said, "You care about me? Is there anything in the Xu family that needs your attention? I advise you not to worry about it! If you don't have money, you don't have money. I suggest you follow Give your brother-in-law a call and approve some more money, otherwise you won’t be able to get this painting, hahahaha!”
Everyone couldn't help but be a little surprised when they saw that the Xu family siblings started to mock each other.
In fact, not only them, but also Lan Xiaoqing was a little surprised!
She was surprised that her mother and uncle actually started fighting among themselves in front of so many people in public!
This is so ugly!
For the children of the aristocratic family, as a member of the aristocratic family, they have to protect the face of the aristocratic family, and these two people were obviously fighting in front of everyone!
What was hurt was the family’s face!
Xu Xiaoyu had a sullen expression and said nothing. Xu Xiaoguang said proudly: "Twenty-seven million, is there anyone who bids higher than me?"
"Yes, twenty-seven million!" The painter's wife said to everyone with a smile: "I hope everyone will do what they can, but don't make it impossible to live just for a painting!"
I don't know whether her words were intentional or unintentional, but they sounded thorny.
Xu Xiaoyu's face became worse and worse.
"Oh, it's true!" Lan Xiaoqing sighed in a low voice.
Yu Ye looked at Xu Xiaoyu, then at Lan Xiaoqing, and couldn't help but laugh: "It's just a painting. If you can't buy it, forget it."
"It was like this before! But now, it's different." Lan Xiaoqing whispered: "My uncle has offended my mother. You don't know, my mother is weak on the surface, but she is very competitive in her heart. She must be very angry and annoyed when she is ridiculed by her own brother."
"You said your mother is weak on the surface?" Yu Ye said speechlessly.
"Ah, what's wrong?" Lan Xiaoqing asked.
"Stop teasing me, your mother is already very strong on the surface." Yu Ye said speechlessly.
"Hey, that's because you haven't seen a more powerful woman." Lan Xiaoqing smiled.
"Is there any woman more powerful than her?" Yu Ye asked.
"Of course! My grandma is more powerful than her!" Lan Xiaoqing said.
"Your grandma is stronger than your mother, so it seems that your mother has inherited your grandma's excellent genes." Yu Ye said speechlessly.
"Actually, she is not very strong all the time. For example, she is not strong when she is around my dad." Lan Xiaoqing said.
"That's for sure. When a woman is with the man she loves, it's natural for her to be in love with him. Your mother is just strong, but not without emotional intelligence." Yu Ye said with a smile.
"Yes!" Lan Xiaoqing nodded.
"Then how will this end? Does your mother still want to bid?" Yu Ye lowered his gaze to Xu Xiaoyu's face and asked.
"I don't know. I can't rule out the possibility that my mother will suppress my uncle whenever she gets angry." Lan Xiaoqing said: "In the Xu family, my mother always has to suppress my uncle. She can't stand my uncle mocking her."
"Then what your mother said just now is that your uncle spent the Xu family's money, not his own." Yu Ye said.
"Well, that would be even more troublesome. If my mother can't afford to suppress my uncle, wouldn't it be a disgrace to the Lan family? My mother cares about the Lan family's face. In front of so many people, I Mom will not give up easily." Lan Xiaoqing said.
Sure enough, as soon as Lan Xiaoqing finished speaking, the painter's wife shouted loudly: "Is there anyone else who bids? If no one bids, then this painting will belong to Mr. Xu, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Xiaoyu said in a deep voice: "Twenty-eight million!"
Everyone's hearts jumped again, and they all focused their attention on Xu Xiaoyu's face.
They discovered that their previous guesses were completely wrong!
Not only did the Xu siblings not join forces to bid for the auction, but they were now competing head-on to decide who was better!
It's rare for people in a brother-sister relationship to compete for the same thing at an auction!
At this time, Xu Xiaoguang smiled sinisterly and said: "Sister, did my brother-in-law approve the money for you? I didn't see you calling me! Did you send a WeChat message to get it? How much did he approve for you? Only 30 million ?"
Xu Xiaoyu ignored Xu Xiaoguang's teasing and said coldly: "If you want to bid, just make it. Don't talk to me in a weird way!"
At this time, one of the people present who knew the Xu family well suddenly remembered something and said to his friend next to him: "I remembered it!"
"What do you remember?" the man's friend asked.
"Now is the time when the relationship between these siblings is at its worst."
"oh?"
"Because their two fathers just made a will not long ago, and they want to give all their property to their sons, and not give any to their daughters."
"After Xu Xiaoyu found out, she went home and had a big fight with her father, and then left in anger. His younger brother was there at the time. His younger brother looked excited from beginning to end and didn't care about this sister's mood at all, so you just Can you understand how frustrated Xu Xiaoyu feels now?"
"You don't give your daughter a penny? That's too much!"
"There is no way. Her father is an extremely patriarchal person. It is not unusual at all to do such a thing. Otherwise, why would Xu Xiaoyu be so rebellious when she was young and always make her father angry?"
"So that's it! Alas, the two of them are now seriously at odds with each other. Their relationship has almost reached a freezing point, and it's all come to this. It's really..."
"It's not surprising how many families are in turmoil because of this kind of thing!"
