Chapter 513 Angry Qiao Yicheng, the Show Begins
Qiao Yicheng took Wen Ju'an away. Many people in the banquet hall saw it and everyone talked in low voices.
In the corridor, Qiao Yicheng and Wen Ju'an stood together. If a stranger saw them, they would probably think that they were the newcomers today.
"Ju'an, you said you have something to tell me. If you want to say anything to me, you can say it now."
After all, she was the goddess of his dreams and his first girlfriend, so he was unusually tolerant of Wen Ju'an.
Wen Juan did not speak, but took out a few pieces of paper from the bag in his hand and handed them to Qiao Yicheng.
"Brother Yicheng, look at this."
Qiao Yicheng took it with confusion, and then looked at the writing on the paper.
In just over ten seconds, his expression changed, but he did not speak, but continued to look down. The more he looked, the uglier his face became.
Three or four minutes passed before he looked away from the paper and stared at Wen Ju'an with reddish eyes.
"Ju'an, where did this come from? Is everything in it true?"
Wen Ju'an nodded and said: "It's true. I asked someone to investigate. Brother Yicheng, you are so good. I hope you are happy, so I asked someone to investigate her. I hope you don't blame me, brother Yicheng."
Qiao Yicheng held the two pieces of paper tightly with both hands, his fingers turned white from the exertion, and his expression became very gloomy.
What is recorded here is all about Ye Xiaolang's love history. From college to work, there are actually more than ten relationships, including several during college alone.
What is even more shocking is that Ye Xiaolang actually had a relationship with a man who was nearly fifty years old, and the relationship was very close.
They are all men, how could Qiao Yicheng not understand what this meant.
Ye Xiaolang had never told her these things. He only told him that he had a boyfriend when he was in college, but that was many years ago.
He didn't mind after hearing this. After all, who didn't have a bad memory? He himself had a first love, but nothing like that happened.
If Ye Xiaolang has one or two relationships, he can still accept it. After all, it is no longer a feudal society. He is also a person who has gone to college and has a relatively open mind.
But when he saw that Ye Xiaolang had more than ten relationships, and some were unsightly, he couldn't bear it.
To be precise, 90% of men can't stand this situation.
"I still don't quite believe it, Ju'an, are these..."
Wen Ju'an interrupted: "Are you trying to say that I made these up? Brother Yicheng, you are so smart, you should understand that there is no need for me to do that. If you are really happy, I will not come. Destroy your happiness, but this Ye Xiaolang, she is really not suitable for you, you will not be happy with her."
"Because besides the fact that she cheated on you emotionally, her family is also more complicated than you imagined, brother Yicheng."
Qiao Yicheng asked stiffly: "What happened to her family?"
"In order to allow her parents to support her in college, Ye Xiaolang promised that her brother, wedding gifts, and house would all be borne by her. Brother Yicheng, if you marry her, this debt will fall to The betrothal gift may not be much on your head, you can just grit your teeth and give it, but the house is different. If her brother wants to buy a house in a good city, it will be a bottomless pit and it is not something you can afford."
Hearing this, Qiao Yicheng's face turned darker. Of course he knew how precious a house was. He didn't even dare to think about buying a house himself, so how could he be willing to buy a house for others.
And I'm afraid this is not just a matter of betrothal gifts and houses. Ye Xiaolang's family may have endless troubles in the future.
Thinking of this, Qiao Yicheng shuddered in her heart. She never thought that things would be like this.
If all this is true, will his marriage with Ye Xiaolang really continue?
In fact, he originally wanted to get the household registration certificate with Ye Xiaolang first before getting married, but the household registration book was controlled by Qiao Zuwang. Qiao Zuwang was not willing to give him the household registration book before seeing the benefits, so he could only marry Ye Xiaolang first. Lang held a banquet and then received the certificate.
"Brother Yicheng, everything I said is true. If you don't believe it, when you meet Ye Xiaolang's parents later, they will definitely tell you about it. Then you will know the truth."
The impact on Qiao Yicheng was really great. Ye Xiaolang said that he did not ask for a bride price, but in fact he also paid a bride price, and Ye Xiaolang also said that there would be no follow-up in the future.
But he didn't expect that all this might be a lie to him. He couldn't afford the gift and house for her brother's future marriage.
However, the matter has not yet been confirmed, and he still holds a glimmer of hope in his heart, thinking that it may not be true.
When he hesitated, Ye Xiaolang suddenly walked out of the banquet hall and looked at them with a smile.
"Issei, haven't you finished speaking yet?"
Wen Ju'an said first: "That's it, brother Yicheng, sister Xiaolang, I'll go in first."
After Wen Ju'an left, Ye Xiaolang looked at Qiao Yicheng, who looked unhappy, and asked, "Yicheng, what's wrong with you? Your face doesn't look good. Did she say something to you?"
Qiao Yicheng looked at the person on the pillow in front of him, and suddenly felt that she was so strange, and forced a smile in front of him.
"I'm fine. Have your parents arrived yet?"
Originally, he wanted to ask Zhou Chen to pick up Ye Xiaolang's parents, but how could Zhou Chen do such a thing? He immediately declined, saying that he had something important to do, but he also found a driver for Qiao Yicheng, Let the driver pick you up.
Ye Xiaolang saw Qiao Yicheng's changes, and she felt a little gloomy.
"It should be soon. Isn't it the person arranged by your brother-in-law Zhou Chen?"
While talking, he suddenly saw Zhou Chen walking out.
"Yicheng, the driver called me just now and said that he had sent your father-in-law and mother-in-law to the door of the hotel and asked you to pick them up."
Both Qiao Yicheng and Ye Xiaolang were shocked, "Okay, we'll go pick him up now."
Then the two people quickly arrived at the entrance of Jinling Hotel and saw an old couple standing at the entrance.
Seeing the old couple, Qiao Yicheng and Ye Xiaolang's expressions changed slightly.
Because this old couple was dusty and sloppily dressed. The man had a sloppy beard and the woman had messy hair. It was obvious at a glance that they had not been groomed.
You must know that today is their daughter's big day to get married. Even if they come from afar, they won't look like this. It feels like it is intentional.
"Dad, Mom, why are you here?"
Ye Xiaolang stepped forward to greet him, followed closely by Qiao Yicheng.
Father Ye coughed dryly and said, "I can't help it, the road is difficult, so I'm not late."
As he said that, he looked at Qiao Yicheng with a scrutinizing gaze: "You must be Qiao Yicheng."
"Uncle, auntie, hello, I'm Qiao Yicheng. I'd like to thank you for your hard work."
Qiao Yicheng felt uncomfortable, but it was hard to say anything. After all, these two were also elders. But when he thought of what Wen Ju'an had just said to him, he felt even worse.
"Dad, Mom, let's go in. 10% of their relatives have arrived and are waiting for you."
Ye Xiaolang greeted the two elders and walked into the Jinling Hotel. If it weren't for the marriage, the two elders must be present. Otherwise, she didn't want to contact them at all.
Since she started working, these two old men have always contacted her, either asking for money or asking her to buy something. Her salary is not enough, and she has to take care of them. She has had enough of this kind of life.
When Qiao Yicheng led Ye Xiaolang's parents into the banquet hall, the relatives and friends of the Qiao family all looked at the old couple in shock, their eyes unmistakable.
As for Qiao Zuwang, his face was even more ugly at the moment.
Although he was dissatisfied with his eldest son's disrespect for him, when his eldest son got married, he still gave him enough face, cleaned himself up, put on the best clothes, and acted the most decent way.
It turned out that the in-laws were doing well. Only two people showed up, and several tables of people were left waiting. The most important thing was that they looked so dusty and slovenly that they didn't look like they were attending their daughter's wedding banquet.
This is too disrespectful.
Qiao Yicheng naturally saw his father's expression. He laughed and said, "Dad, these are Xiao Lang's parents, uncle and aunt, this is my father."
"Hello, in-laws, hello." Ye Xiaolang's parents greeted each other, but they looked casual and not festive at all.
Qiao Zuwang was very unhappy and replied in a stiff tone: "Hello, in-laws, is the road in Jinling so congested?"
Father Ye chuckled and said, "It's a bit congested. After all, it's a big city. It's my first time here, so it's so unfamiliar."
"Really? There will be more in-laws in the future." Qiao Zu looked at him.
Second aunt Wei Shufang pushed Qiao Zuwang, winked at him, and signaled that today was a wedding banquet, so don't cause trouble, and then asked Qiao Zuwang to sit down.
Next, Father Ye and Mother Ye took out some of their local specialties and gave them to Qiao Yicheng. They were some vegetables, chicken, duck and the like, which made Qiao Zuwang's face look even worse.
If a relative comes to visit, it is polite and normal to bring these things with you.
But this time Father Ye and Mother Ye were just returning gifts, so they ended up bringing these things? How much does it cost in total?
Then they took out the wedding gifts for the two of them, which turned out to be two pillowcases, which really shocked everyone.
Even Zhou Chen was stunned. These two pillowcases looked like they were bought at a roadside stall. They were so rustic and pink. You can just buy a bright red one.
Are you sure you're not here to have fun?
Qiao Zuwang was so angry that he was sarcastic, and his face was extremely dark. If there were not relatives and friends present, he would probably get angry on the spot.
Qiao Yicheng's face was also ugly. He was really embarrassed now. Thinking about what Wen Ju'an just said to him, he felt even more uncomfortable. He didn't even defend Ye's father and Ye's mother, and was worried.
Just as the banquet was about to start, I saw Father Ye and Mother Ye muttering in a low voice, and then Father Ye stood up.
"Yicheng, I have something to tell you first. Let's go out and talk first."
When Qiao Yicheng heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but think of what Wen Ju'an just mentioned. Could it be that Father Ye and Mother Ye really wanted to say it?
So he patiently walked outside with Father Ye.
Sure enough, Ye's father mentioned the bride price, his son's marriage, and buying a house.
The more Qiao Yicheng listened, the uglier his face became, and the anger in his heart was about to burst out uncontrollably.
"Yi Cheng, this is what Xiao Lang promised us. Since you want to marry Xiao Lang, it naturally has something to do with you. Look at this. This is the letter of guarantee written by Xiao Lang back then. There are also Her signature and fingerprints are here."
Qiao Yicheng looked at the envelope with a livid face, took out the guarantee letter inside, and took a closer look. It was exactly what Ye's father said.
Father Ye continued: "We are going to have housing reform soon. We can't afford so much money to buy it. If we can't buy a new house, her brother won't be able to get married. So, Xiao Lang doesn't care. Who cares? Who cares?" Let that be her biological brother."
Qiao Yicheng lowered his head and silently put the guarantee letter back into the envelope.
Seeing that Qiao Yicheng didn't speak, Father Ye thought he didn't believe it and immediately said, "If you don't believe it, I'll call her out now and let her tell you face to face."
Qiao Yicheng raised his head, with an unclear expression, and suddenly said: "Okay, then uncle, please call her out."
If Wen Ju'an hadn't shown him the messages and what he said in advance, after hearing what Ye's father said, he might have settled down and agreed to Ye's father's request in order to continue the wedding.
But the depression that had been building up since just now, coupled with the fact that he thought of everything Wen Ju'an had done for him, compared with Ye Xiaolang's family, suddenly caused an imbalance in his heart.
Father Ye was stunned when he heard what Qiao Yicheng said. He originally thought that Qiao Yicheng would agree directly. After all, this is not a glorious thing. An intellectual like Qiao Yicheng who has a good work unit definitely doesn't want to lose face.
But he didn't expect Qiao Yicheng to be so decisive.
But he responded quickly, "Okay, you wait, I will call Xiao Lang now."
Then he walked into the banquet hall. Ye Xiaolang was looking at the door worriedly. When she saw her father walking over and Qiao Yicheng not coming back, she immediately felt something was wrong.
"Xiao Lang, come out first and tell you and Yicheng what I have to say."
Ye Xiaolang asked nervously: "Dad, is there anything you can't say after the banquet?"
Father Ye said with a strong attitude: "No, we have to tell you now. Come out quickly and make it clear to Yicheng."
With that said, he forcefully pulled Ye Xiaolang out. He didn't care how embarrassing it would be for his daughter.
Father Ye's behavior made the originally joyful banquet hall suddenly noisy. Everyone looked at the door in surprise, wondering what was going on.
Qiao Zuwang even angrily slapped the wine glass on the table, looked in the direction of Ye Mu, and shouted loudly: "What is this thing called?"
Wei Shufang quickly comforted: "Brother-in-law, don't cause trouble, you are just talking."
"What are you talking about? There's something you can't say face to face, and you run to the side to say it. Could it be that you feel that the betrothal gift given by our family is not enough, and you want to take this opportunity to blackmail our family again?"
Qiao Zuwang, who was unhappy, also started to mess around. He didn't even care that Ye Mu was still on the table and started to spray.
Mother Ye's face instantly became very embarrassed, and she stood up suddenly: "I'll go out and see them."
Her leaving made Qiao Zuwang feel this way even more. If not, why didn't you refute her and hide instead?
Not only Qiao Zuwang, but other relatives and friends also felt that something was wrong, and now the wedding banquet might have changed.
If he hadn't been too scrupulous, someone might have gone to the corner to eavesdrop.
