Chapter 672 Warrior Widow
Tianxiang Tower is right on the main street, less than three minutes' walk from Qin Yao's house.
Seeing that everyone was almost here, the restaurant staff started serving food.
Everyone sat down to the table one after another, the men were outside, and the women were sitting in the hall. Everyone was eating and drinking, and they were full of praise for the banquet hosted by Qin Yao's family.
There were eight kinds of meat and vegetables, and the banquet was ordered from Tianxiang Restaurant. It seemed like it cost a lot of money.
This is just a housewarming party. The host doesn't accept gifts, so he can treat everyone to such a meal generously.
Coupled with the egg cakes and pastries during the day, after this housewarming banquet, the Qin Yao family left a good image in the hearts of the neighbors as generous, hospitable, easy to get along with, and well-off.
During the banquet, Mrs. Qiu looked outside several times. After looking for a long time, she saw no trace of the Qi family. She had a small talk with Mrs. Yu, Mrs. Wang and others, and everyone clicked their tongues and shook their heads.
It's such a great official power. Mrs. Wang brought her grandson to the banquet, but the Qi family didn't even send a steward to send congratulations.
As the hosts, Qin Yao and Liu Ji greeted the guests inside and outside. Now that everyone was seated, the couple had a chance to meet.
Qin Yao also noticed the murmurings of Mrs. Qiu and others, and asked Liu Ji: "Didn't you send an invitation to the next door?"
Liu Jike didn't want to carry this big pot, and hurriedly explained: "I sent it. Awang sent it to me personally yesterday afternoon."
Although he said the day before yesterday that he would not invite the Qi family, he was just saying it out of anger.
Qin Yao frowned slightly, "They didn't send anyone? Not even a word of congratulations?"
Liu Ji nodded. He had been standing at the door for a whole day, knowing who was coming and who was not. "Everyone in the city, except the Qi family, came to congratulate him."
"Madam, what's going on with the Qi family? We haven't offended them, have we?" Liu Ji, who had always been self-reliant, couldn't figure it out.
Even if there is a huge hatred between neighbors, there is no need to make it so tense if you can't see each other when you look up.
"Forget it, whether love comes or not, stay away from the whole family when you see her in the future." Qin Yao waved her hand, signaling Liu Ji to skip this topic. She was starving to death, and she didn't have time to taste the delicious food on the table. .
Liu Ji chuckled and immediately forgot about the Qi family. He picked up a chopstick of drunken shrimp that he thought was particularly delicious and put it into Qin Yao's bowl. "Madam, eat this, it's delicious."
As he said that, he continued to look for the vegetables she might like to eat, and put them all into Qin Yao's bowl. He didn't stop until they were piled high into a hill.
Anyway, the people sitting at their table were either Mr. Ding and his wife, Liu Fei and the stewards from Fulong Trading Company. They all knew the situation well and were not afraid of embarrassment.
Mrs. Xiao glanced at Liu Ji secretly, then turned to face Master Ding and reminded him angrily: "Look at me."
Mr. Ding looked up blankly: "Huh?"
"By the way, where are Xiang'er and Shi'er?" Master Ding asked doubtfully as he didn't see his daughter and son.
Mrs. Xiao asked for trouble. She gently pinched the soft flesh of Mr. Ding's waist with her hands under the table, and raised her chin to the children's table: "Aren't we sitting over there with a few kids?"
Mr. Ding almost couldn't help shouting, but he held it back when he saw his wife's sinister smile.
He muttered: "Why are you sitting at the same table with children when you are already engaged?"
While secretly breathing in the air-conditioning, his desire for survival exploded, and he was busy picking up food for his wife, which was very coaxing.
This scene happened to fall into Liu Ji's eyes, and he almost burst into laughter.
Hahaha, finally he is not the only one who is afraid of women!
"By the way, ma'am." Liu Ji poked Qin Yao's arm with the tail of his chopsticks, "I just heard what you said about Mr. Wang Jin in the inner hall. Did we know that Wang Jin?"
Qin Yao glanced at him and said, "Your ears are very bright. You can hear from such a distance."
Liu Ji said smugly: "That's not a good idea. It's convenient for my wife to be here whenever you call me."
"Young poor man!" Qin Yao was so disgusted by him that she shook her arms, then nodded and said, "You heard me right, Mrs. Wang's son is the Wang Jin we know."
Liu Ji was startled and subconsciously raised his hand to point at Wang Chengyang, who was sandwiched between the older men and younger men at the children's table, "Is his son that old?"
Qin Yao shook her head: "It's his nephew, not his son, his eldest brother's child. Several of Wang Jin's marriages were ruined because of this child, because this child is in Wang Jin's name, and you have to give him such a big gift if you marry him. The child becomes an aunt.”
No, since the child is in Wang Jin's name, she is the mother.
"What's wrong? Are the kid's parents gone?" Liu Ji's gossip soul burned brightly.
As long as one of the parents is still alive, the children will not follow their uncle.
Qin Yao: "My father died in the battle, and my mother committed suicide by throwing herself into a well after giving birth to the child."
Liu Ji was even more shocked, "Is this a posthumous child?"
Qin Yao reminded him to keep his voice down and said softly: "Both the old man of the Wang family and the eldest son of the Wang family died in the battle, at dawn before dawn."
Liu Ji did not expect that the old lady of the Wang family and her grandson were also widows of warriors. He admired these people from the bottom of his heart who dared to go to the battlefield to fight.
but!
Except Wang Jin!
Although Wang Jin later made Qin Yao a lot of money, Liu Ji still held a grudge.
He had not forgotten at all that he had thrown them to thirty dead soldiers that day.
What a coincidence, we meet on a narrow road!
Qin Yao saw through the little ninety-nine in his heart at a glance, and warned: "Don't give me any trouble. The life of an orphan and a widowed mother is not easy."
Liu Jiqie said, he doesn't bully other people's orphans and widowed mothers.
Besides, he is not that kind of person.
Every wrong has its perpetrator, and he only wants Wang Jin!
It was getting dark, and the guests gradually dispersed.
Old Madam Wang was held by Old Lady Qiu and others to chat and was not allowed to leave, saying that they wanted to find a diligent girl for Wang Jin.
This really touched Old Madam Wang's heart, and she was waiting for them to introduce her with a smile.
As they chatted, they became the last wave of guests to leave.
Yin Le took a large piece of egg cake wrapped in oil paper and handed it to Wang Chengyang, "Young Master, take it home to eat."
She had just heard about the child's life experience, which was very pitiful.
And she, in fact, can have the life she has now, which can be regarded as borrowing the light of Lord Wang Jin.
If Lord Wang Jin had not gone to Kaiyang County to investigate the case and asked County Magistrate Song to execute Lady Pan, the brothel owner who persecuted innocent women, she would not have reunited with her master, and would not have such a good life as today.
Wang Chengyang looked at Yin Le who showed goodwill to him strangely, and did not immediately take the cake she handed over.
Yin Le looked at the child's alert look and smiled gently, "My name is Yin Le. Madam Qin is my master. Your uncle has been kind to me. This is a small token of my gratitude. If your family needs any hard work in the future, just come to me and don't tire your grandmother."
"I can chop wood and carry water!"
Yin Le raised his arm proudly and squeezed his biceps.
Wang Chengyang then took the oil paper bag she handed over and bowed politely, "Thank you."
"Why are you wearing a mask?" Children are always curious.
