Chapter 214: Bow down and admit your mistake
Most of the guests sitting here are well-known people.
After all, when it comes to the happy events of the top two leaders in the city, basically everyone is involved.
Therefore, they are not only well-informed about the political situation, but also pay close attention to current affairs news.
As soon as Gu Mingyue finished speaking, the people around her immediately reacted and were shocked.
Noticing that the other party was sitting at her mother's family's table, I felt that the Xu family's network of connections was really extensive... Thinking of this, many people were thinking about it.
At this time, the man next to Yu Guilan's face changed drastically, and he stood up hurriedly to apologize, "I'm sorry, my wife is ignorant and can't speak. She means well but does bad things. Please be magnanimous and don't bother with her!"
Gu Mingyue asked, "You are her man... so the groom has to call you uncle?"
The man's name was Shao Qiushi. He said with a simple and honest face, "Yes, yes, sorry for making fun of me."
Gu Mingyue nodded unexpectedly and agreed with him, "It's really funny. Oh, don't mind, I don't mean to laugh at you, I just thought of something interesting. To be honest, I also had an uncle and aunt, and their personalities were similar to yours. The wife was also a shrew in the front trying to take advantage, and the husband was picking up the ready-made things behind. If she got any benefits, she would pretend to be ashamed and act both right and wrong. She was not afraid of failure, and she could just blame her wife for speaking her mind. It's a pity that the couple offended the wrong people, and one of them died and the other was disabled. I'm not saying that you are pretending. You have been married for so many years, and you can't be two different people sleeping in the same bed. It's because others don't want to bother with you. Otherwise, with your way of doing things without thinking, how can you sit here peacefully... Oh, look at me, on a happy day, talking about life and death, it's too unlucky. Sorry, I didn't learn anything good since I came to the city, and you don't care about me. In this way, I'm fine, just let your wife bow and apologize to the bride, you won't be unwilling, right?"
Shao Qiushi originally had a sincere smile on his face, but the more he listened, the uglier his expression became. When he didn't smile, his honest appearance was completely destroyed, and he instead looked a little sinister.
There were few fools among the people present. They had not noticed it before, but now they understood what was going on after seeing the man's expression.
Everyone's eyes involuntarily turned to where the Shao family was. Noticing the slightly unnatural expressions of the head of the family, Shao Chunsheng, and his wife Qian Wanhua, they couldn't help but feel more inclined to watch the fun.
Shao Qiushi gnashed his teeth in hatred, but he also knew that if he continued to make trouble, he would get into trouble.
In the past, his eldest brother would always help him smooth things over, but now he is turning a blind eye to him, which makes him feel very uneasy.
Then he took out his anger on Yu Guilan and hit her hard with his elbow. "What are you dithering about? Didn't you hear what I asked? I told you to stop interfering, but you didn't listen. Now that I've taken it seriously, let's see if you dare to say anything more."
Gu Mingyue stopped him from talking. "Hey, it sounds like I'm making a mountain out of a molehill. Do you want me to summarize today's events into a story later and let readers express their opinions? Isn't it said that the eyes of the masses are sharp? Let them teach me how to deal with a couple who are used to playing double acts? Before, I only expelled my uncle and aunt from the clan. Oh, I forgot to say that I personally handled my aunt, and I kindly sent her parents and children to reunite with them far away. Now that I think about it, I was a little immature. I should have taken back my job as well. Otherwise, when will I realize my mistake? What do you think of my approach?"
Even though the people around her had seen big scenes, they also had some idea of this girl's character. It was true that one should not judge a person by his appearance. Although she looked bright and pretty, she was actually a ruthless character.
When Shao Qiushi and the other party exchanged cold eyes, he felt a chill in his heart. He dared not to be sarcastic anymore and said, "I am a rough man and I don't think before I speak. Don't bother with me. It's an apology, we will do it now."
Yu Guilan knew she couldn't win, so she didn't dare to act like a spoiled child anymore. She apologized reluctantly, "I'm sorry, niece-in-law. I just said something wrong. Please forgive me."
Xu Xiwen felt so happy. She knew that if she and her family kept harping on the matter, it would not be long before word spread that the Xu family was being unreasonable and that they were just relatives and that they were making a fuss out of nothing.
It was different when Mingyue stood up and helped her out and vent her anger in the name of a good friend. Naturally, others couldn't say anything. Even if the Shao family had some complaints, they couldn't argue with them.
She was very grateful to her friend for not holding back and replied generously, "It's okay, auntie. We are family and we don't have to talk about different things. Since we are all family members in the future, I will say a few more words. I hope you will pay attention to the occasion in the future and avoid bringing trouble to the family."
Shao Dongsheng stood up and said, "Okay, okay, on this happy day, let's make big things go and small things go. Many of you have come from far away. As the saying goes, family disgrace should not be made public. I am sorry to have made fun of you. Here, I also express my attitude. As for my younger brother, I will definitely discipline him strictly in the future and not let him cause trouble. As for this, my daughter-in-law's good friend, Comrade Gu Mingyue, thank you for your blessings to the newlyweds and your earnest advice to my family. You have been wronged today. Come to our house more often when you have time, and we will make it up to you. And my in-laws... I have never boasted, don't worry, Xiwen has been raised by me since she was a child, just like my own daughter. Everyone in the Shao family, including me, will never let her suffer any grievances. I swear on my party spirit."
After hearing this, Xu Kejian stood up to smooth things over. "Dongsheng, why are you so serious? They are the younger generation, so they should be taught some lessons. I have spoiled my daughter, so I still hope that someone can help me take good care of her in the future. Xiwen, you too, should respect your parents-in-law. Remember, you represent the Xu family, so you must be careful wherever you go and never bring shame to the Xu family."
It seemed like a reprimand, but in fact it was a support, which made those people in the Shao family who were ready to make a move suppress their thoughts and dare not provoke.
How could Shao Dongsheng not hear it? He deliberately retorted, "Xiwen has always been a sensible and good child, otherwise I wouldn't have kept urging Wenze to chase someone..."
Xu Kejian suddenly realized, "I thought so, you old man had a plan all along..."
The topic was changed while joking, the atmosphere became relaxed, the meal officially began, and the newlyweds prepared to toast.
Sun Manni secretly thanked Gu Mingyue, who politely said, "Just don't blame me for causing trouble."
The former enthusiastically took her hand and said, "You are always so sweet, if you were not in a hurry to go home, I would be reluctant to let you go. Please remember to keep in touch in the future."
"Haha, definitely."
After finally breaking free from Sun Manni's hand, Lu Xue jokingly said, "Congratulations on your success."
Gu Mingyue said proudly, "It's just a mere achievement, not worth mentioning, but I'm sorry to have caused you trouble."
Lu Xue was puzzled, "Where did you get this from?"
