"The only old friend of our family is your father, and he's been dead for decades! Why don't you go to the cemetery and dig him out to apologize to him?"
When Mr. Hai heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat and didn't dare to say anything.
Grandma Haitong calmed her heaving chest, lowered her head to drink a sip of water, took a deep breath, and said expressionlessly, "We were secretly happy when they remembered our friendship and were willing to lend us a hand. Now that you have offended them, they are no longer willing to talk about our friendship from decades ago. What can I do?"
Father Hai's face was full of bitterness: "Yes, it is us who did not teach our daughter well and formed her current personality. I also regret it..."
Because of the family planning policy, he only had one daughter.
Haitong has been cute and smart since she was born. She is a little girl and is very much loved by Mr. Ye.
At that time, Hai's father was also thinking that with the relationship with the Ye family, no matter what Hai Tong's future would be like, at least she would be able to find a good marriage.
The Hai family can only be considered a lower-tier family in Beijing, barely able to make it into the circle. The family runs some business and is considered wealthy outside.
In this circle, he is a nouveau riche with no roots.
It is said that it is difficult for Haitong to find someone in this circle. Even if she can find someone in this circle, he or she will be someone of similar level to them.
But Mr. Ye likes Haitong, and Hai's father thinks that his daughter's marriage in the future can at least be found in the upper class of his own...
So they spoiled their daughter and brought her up in pampering...until she became spoiled, willful, and self-righteous.
Father Hai has also seen it now.
Haitong thought that their family had a very high status in the Beijing circle, almost the same as the Ye family, or only slightly worse than the Ye family.
I have no idea about the real situation at home, nor do I know the exact location of my home in Beijing.
"But she has grown up. Even if I want to teach her, I can only do it slowly..." Father Hai looked at his old mother bitterly again.
"What's important now is that we didn't get the invitation from the Ye family and can't attend this birthday party. How will those contract parties... and those who have been helping us before think of us?"
When Grandma Haitong heard this, her expression finally relaxed a little. She looked at her son who was complaining to her and sighed barely perceptible.
"The Ye family is really angry this time. Besides, it's not Mr. Ye's birthday this time, but that person's birthday."
"Haitong has been making trouble for others several times before. Whether it's her own intention or the Ye family has other considerations, it's unlikely that they will invite us this time."
Father Hai was really anxious now: "But our two families have been in contact for decades, and with Dad's relationship..."
Grandma Haitong interrupted him in a strong voice: "Relationships can't last a lifetime!"
"!"
Father Hai's whole body was stiff and his face looked extremely ugly.
He shouldered the burden of the family and knew very well how important the Ye family's attitude was to their business.
The reason why their family has been able to do a thriving business in Beijing over the years is mostly due to Mr. Ye’s attitude.
Once they lose the support of the Ye family...Father Hai's already ugly face suddenly turned pale and anxious.
Haitong's grandmother waved her hands, calmed herself down and said to them, "I'll find your Aunt Li and ask her to take Haitong with her."
Father Hai originally thought that he was at the end of his rope, but he hadn't expected that there was a surprise waiting for him. His eyes immediately lit up, and he was about to speak: "Mom..."
