Chapter 101: Blame the Whole Family

Gu Jingyan obviously didn't want the old lady to know that he was slashed, perhaps because he was afraid that the old lady would worry.

"Did you not eat well again?" The old lady frowned, "Your face has become smaller. Have you felt better these two days?"

"Much better. I can go back to the company in two days."

"Don't worry, the most important thing is to keep healthy," the old lady looked at the coffee cup in his hand and frowned, "Drinking coffee when your stomach is uncomfortable?"

Gu Jingyan immediately threw the blame to Qiao Ruoxing, "This is hers."

"Ruoxing can't drink it either. It's afternoon now. It will affect your sleep at night."

Qiao Ruoxing took the blame while cursing in her heart, "I know, grandma, I won't drink it next time."

The old lady was very satisfied. Seeing a pile of clothes on the sofa, she asked, "Are you going out?"

Qiao Ruoxing didn't know how to respond now.

The old lady already knew that Gu Jingyan was "sick". If she knew at this time that he had to go to a jewelry exhibition and leave someone else's "sick" precious grandson alone at home, even if she didn't say it, she would be a little dissatisfied in her heart.

She was just trying to find an excuse to get away with it when she heard Gu Jingyan say, "She's making a lot of noise at home. There's a jewelry exhibition tonight. Send her there so I can have some peace and quiet."

The old lady was surprised, "Is it Shiyun's jewelry exhibition?"

Mo Shiyun, the organizer of this jewelry exhibition, is also Mo Mingxuan's aunt.

Gu Jingyan nodded.

The old lady smiled and said, "It's on the way, let Ruoxing go with me."

Gu Jingyan was stunned, "You want to go too?"

"Shiyun said she has a good piece of jade, and invited Taoist Xuanji from Sanqing Temple to consecrate it. I just happened to have nothing to do, so I went to take a look."

The old lady liked jade and was very superstitious. She had a good relationship with Taoist Xuanji, and the renovation of Sanqing Temple was donated by the Gu family.

Even when she and Gu Jingyan got married, the old lady went to the Taoist temple to calculate their horoscopes, saying that they were a perfect match made in heaven.

Qiao Ruoxing always felt that the Taoist Xuanji was a bit of a charlatan, but this matter was originally a matter of belief, there was no need to say it out loud to upset the old lady.

Gu Jingyan frowned and said, "Didn't Mingxuan say there was some jade, wasn't it a night-shining pearl?"

"It was her friend's, I forgot, we'll know when we go and see."

Gu Jingyan pursed his lips and said, "I'll go with you."

The old lady glanced at him, "Ruoxing is alone and you think it's noisy, there are so many people there, won't your ears break?"

Gu Jingyan said calmly, "You'll get used to it after listening more, you can't drive her out, right?"

Qiao Ruoxing's mouth twitched.

Dog man, no matter what he said, he was right!

————

Mo Mingxuan's grandfather had four children, the first three were sons, and the youngest was a daughter.

The Mo family doted on this youngest daughter especially when they had a daughter in their old age.

Mo Shiyun herself was also very capable, graduated from a prestigious school, had a successful career, and was a daughter of a famous family. If there was anything that was not perfect, it was her marriage.

I heard that she divorced her ex-husband after a few years of marriage. She has a daughter. Although she has had many boyfriends, she has never remarried. I heard that she found a boyfriend who is more than ten years younger than her two years ago. Although she was opposed by many parties, she finally got the marriage certificate this year.

Maybe because she didn't reach an agreement with her family, the wedding has not been held yet.

Qiao Ruoxing was very envious when she heard it. It's different to have money. You can find a boyfriend who is 30 years old at the age of 50.

I heard that it was a private jewelry exhibition and the venue would not be too big. As a result, when she arrived at the scene, Qiao Ruoxing knew what arrogance meant.

The venue rented for the jewelry exhibition was very large. It was decorated magnificently in a few days. Nearly a hundred people were hired for security personnel alone. More than half of the socialites in Jiangcheng came to participate. There were luxury cars at the door. It could have held a car show.

Uncle Qin parked the car, and several people got off the car and went to the exhibition center.

The old lady was famous. Since her retirement, she rarely attended various activities, so when she arrived, she instantly became the center of the audience.

Many ladies came to greet her. The old lady was old, but she was not confused at all. She could call most of the people who greeted her by name. Even if she didn't know them, she would respond very politely.

The old lady was very popular in Jiangcheng, and Qiao Ruoxing also benefited from it.

"Why is grandma here?"

Gu Jingyang looked at the people not far away and frowned, "Mom, didn't grandma tell you that she was coming? She even brought that woman with her."

Zhong Meilan stared at those people with a cold face and said nothing for a long time before saying, "Go over and say hello to grandma."

Gu Jingyang pouted, "Grandma is partial to my eldest brother and that woman. I don't want to go to such lengths."

"Your grandma is partial to her because of your eldest brother. You are her granddaughter. How can she not love you? Go quickly and don't let people laugh at you."

Gu Jingyang went over reluctantly.

"Grandma."

The old lady turned her head and found that it was her eldest granddaughter. Her eyes immediately became loving. "You are here too."

"I came with my mother. We must come to support Aunt Shiyun's exhibition."

Zhong Meilan said, "Mom, didn't you say you didn't want to come before? Why did you change your mind?"

Old lady Gu appeared with her granddaughter-in-law, instead of choosing to attend with her eldest daughter-in-law, who was rumored to be her favorite, so the wives naturally had some concerns.

Zhong Meilan has such a high status in the wives' circle, largely relying on her outstanding son and the prestige of old lady Gu in the circle over the years. Her family's strength is average.

This is somewhat similar to Qiao Ruoxing, both of whom were born in a humble family and married into a wealthy family.

Just now, the group of wives were still asking why the old lady didn't come. Zhong Meilan told everyone that the old lady was not feeling well, but in the blink of an eye, she came by herself and brought her grandchildren and granddaughters-in-law. It was really a slap in her face. Now she can only try to make up for it and save face.

The old lady and Gu Jingyan are worthy of being grandma and grandson. They skillfully put the blame on Qiao Ruoxing, "Ruoxing insisted on coming, and I couldn't resist, so I came with them to see."

Qiao Ruoxing...

You are really my good grandmother!

Zhong Meilan glanced at Qiao Ruoxing with a bad face, and said in a deep tone, "I thought Jingyan was not feeling well, so I didn't call them. You kid, why didn't you tell me that you wanted to come?"

The implication is that your husband is not feeling well, and you still bring him out to play, is that decent?

Of course Qiao Ruoxing put the blame on Gu Jingyan, "Mom, Jingyan said he was bored at home and insisted on coming out. I couldn't do anything."

Gu Jingyan...

Zhong Meilan knew she was lying, but since Gu Jingyan didn't say anything to expose her, she didn't say much. She just said lovingly, "Since you're here, take good care of Jingyan."

"Got it, Mom."

Zhong Meilan turned her gaze to the old lady, and said respectfully, "Mom, Shiyun is in front, I'll take you there."

The old lady responded, turned her head and told her grandson, "Take Ruoxing around. If she likes something, buy it."

Zhong Meilan paused, glanced at Qiao Ruoxing coldly, and then helped the old lady leave.
