Because of Ou Qingheng and Huang Zhanglin's investment, other investors who had been watching from the other side because of Li Haoran's solicitation also joined forces. Under their strong call, the filming of the film and television adaptation of this novel actually attracted an investment of hundreds of millions of yuan. , this is a big production. As long as the drama is filmed and promoted well, and then the most popular thing nowadays is the selling of sex, the male and female protagonists falling in love and killing each other, this movie will have no worries about whether it will be a hit or not. The key is that Ou Qing is there. With Heng sitting behind the scenes, the Li family no longer dared to intervene blatantly.
Mrs. Li and Mr. Li had different expressions when they heard that Yao Ting was able to win over Ou Qingheng and Huang Zhanglin to invest.
Mrs. Li was angry, while Mr. Li was thoughtful, as if he was weighing the commercial value of Yao Ting and Zhang Jiaqi, thinking about which of the two could help the Li family more.
But now that Yao Ting can win over Ou Qingheng and Huang Zhanglin, it can be seen that her relationship with Ou Qingheng's godbrother and godsister is definitely not false. In addition, she and Yao Yiyi are best friends. Although they are not She has a distinguished life experience, but she has the help of the Ou family behind her. If Haoran marries her, it will be of no harm to the Li family. As for Zhang Jiaqi, the Zhang family is also quite well-known, but they are still basically in Beijing, far away from T City. There is still a certain distance, and it will be clear immediately which one is more important.
"It seems that this girl still has some tricks up her sleeve." Mr. Li said meaningfully.
Mrs. Li felt a knot in her heart. She looked at Mr. Li and said, "Dad, what do you mean by this?"
Mr. Li also looked at her and said: "Daughter-in-law, I know you don't like this girl, but you also saw that when Haoran's company had problems, she didn't come crying to ask you to bypass Haoran, but He used the connections he knew to help Haoran open up another field. If Haoran's movie is successfully filmed, he can successfully enter the entertainment industry. Our Li family also intends to get a share of the entertainment industry. If Haoran successfully enters the entertainment industry, Entering this circle might as well be a good sign. Anyway, my choice of daughter-in-law is beneficial to the Li family. The one named Yao Ting has met Ou Qingheng and Yao Yiyi. She is also a famous best-selling author. The key is that Haoran also likes you. Just don’t object.”
Mrs. Li was anxious.
"Dad, that's not what you said at the beginning. She has no family background, her education is only a bachelor's degree, and her appearance is only delicate. She cannot be considered a beauty among beauties, and she is not worthy of Haoran at all." Mrs. Li said: " Besides, Jiaqi is passionate about Haoran and has been waiting for Haoran all these years. If you agree that Haoran and Yao Ting are together, what will Jiaqi do?"
She hand-picked Zhang Jiaqi, the one who could please her the most. As for Yao Ting, she was not good-looking, not someone who would please her elders, and had a straight temper, so she was totally unwilling.
"Daughter-in-law, you can't take some things at face value. I think Jiaqi's child is not as innocent as you think on the surface. She lives in Beijing all year round and doesn't have many opportunities to meet you. How do you know Is she the most suitable for Haoran?" Mr. Li reminded specifically.
Mrs. Li's eyes widened and she looked at the old man in disbelief.
"Dad, you were full of praise for Jiaqi before. The Zhang family is also very powerful in Beijing. If we play with their daughter like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to the Zhang family." Mrs. Li pondered for a moment, road.
Mr. Li asked the bodyguard behind him to go to the study to get something. The bodyguard followed the order. When he came downstairs, he respectfully presented the cowhide bag.
"Daughter-in-law, take a good look at what kind of future daughter-in-law you like." Mr. Li pointed at the cowhide bag and said.
Mrs. Li suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. She intuitively felt that there was some ugly truth in this cowhide bag that she didn't want to see.
"Dad, what is this?" Mrs. Li asked.
"Don't you know it just by looking at it?"
Mrs. Li finally picked up the cowhide bag and looked at it. When she saw the photos and a large pile of documents inside, her face became increasingly ugly.
"Dad, what's going on? How do you have these photos?" Mrs. Li still couldn't believe that her favorite daughter-in-law had been having affairs with so many men.
"I have been listening to you talking about how good Jiaqi is, so I asked someone to check her out to see if she is as good as you said. It just so happened that this information was sent to me yesterday. I saw It's quite interesting, I thought you might also be interested, so I showed it to you." Mr. Li raised the crutch in his hand and said casually.
Mrs. Li's face felt as if someone had slapped her hard several times, and her face was burning.
However, she still didn't want to believe it. She said, "Dad, these photos can't be composite, right? Jiaqi has always behaved well in front of us and is very filial to you. I think she will definitely be the daughter-in-law of the Li family." She is the most suitable candidate, there must be someone trying to harm her."
"If you don't believe it, you can have someone check it."
Mrs. Li clutched the photo in her hand tightly, with raging anger boiling in her heart.
"Dad, I think this is a misunderstanding. I will ask Jiaqi personally. However, in a wealthy marriage, both parties can have fun before they get married. It's not a big deal for Jiaqi to go out with a few people." Mrs. Li He still explained for Zhang Jiaqi stiffly.
"Daughter-in-law, I didn't expect you to be so big-hearted. Even at the risk of Haoran being cheated on her in the future, you still wanted Haoran to marry her. This is the first time I've seen you be so generous." Mr. Li said with an incomprehensible emotion.
"Dad, that's not what I meant. What I meant was..."
"Anyway, the evidence is here. It's up to you to do whatever you want. I don't really mind what the man and woman did before marriage. As long as they are not caught by the media after marriage, it's fine. As for you, the mother, it's up to you. It depends on how much you love your son." After saying that, Mr. Li stood up, looked at Mrs. Li again, and said, "I'm sleepy, so I'll go up and rest first. You should go to bed early too."
After Mr. Li went upstairs, Mrs. Li sat blankly on the chair, not knowing what she was thinking.
She didn't know how long she sat there before she called Zhang Jiaqi.
"Jia Qi, are you free tomorrow? Auntie wants to see something from you." After getting through, Mrs. Li said.
"If you have time, what time would you like to meet, aunt? I'm having a party with friends in T City right now, so I won't go back tonight. Let's meet directly at the place designated by aunt tomorrow."
Mrs. Li's face darkened and she said, "Okay, I will send you the address and time of the meeting later."
"Okay, aunt, please go to bed early, good night."
"Good night."
After hanging up the phone, Mrs. Li's face was gloomy, and she stared at the heroine in the photo. She couldn't bear that the girl she liked was so unbearable, cuddling with different men.
The woman she was looking for for Li Haoran had nothing more than four conditions: first, a clean body; second, a good family background; third, a good temperament; fourth, good appearance.
She thought Zhang Jiaqi was the perfect daughter-in-law in her mind, but she didn't expect that when the truth was revealed, her face felt as if she had been slapped hard, and it hurt so much.
She felt that she had been humiliated in front of the old man, and she couldn't bear this anymore.
Because of the embarrassment, I liked Zhang Jiaqi a little less, and even suspected that Zhang Jiaqi's previous filial piety to her was all disguised and had no sincerity at all.
The next day, Mrs. Li and Zhang Jiaqi arrived at their appointed place as promised.
Zhang Jiaqi put down her bag and said with a gentle smile: "Auntie, I heard that the chefs in this restaurant cook very authentic food. Have you ordered?"
Mrs. Li pushed the menu over and said, "You order it, and we'll chat while we eat."
Zhang Jiaqi clearly felt Mrs. Li's coldness, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes. She didn't understand how Mrs. Li became like this, but she could only wait and see.
Zhang Jiaqi ordered several dishes, all of which were Mrs. Li's favorite cuisines.
"Auntie, is there anything else you like to eat? Just order it." Zhang Jiaqi pushed the menu back to Mrs. Li and said.
"No, these few dishes are enough for us. I don't have much appetite today." Mrs. Li said calmly.
Zhang Jiaqi handed the menu to the waiter, then asked the waiter to bring out the dishes as much as possible, and then looked at Mrs. Li carefully.
"Aunt, did I do something wrong?" Zhang Jiaqi pondered for a moment and spoke.
Mrs. Li pretended not to know and said, "Why do you say that?"
"Intuition, I feel like you are a little cold towards me today." Zhang Jiaqi said: "Auntie, if I have done something wrong, you can point it out and I will change it. I will treat you as my biological mother. You If you are a little colder, I will feel particularly uncomfortable."
Mrs. Li looked at her, sighed quietly, took out the cowhide bag from her bag, and pushed it in front of her.
"Jia Qi, take a look at it. After reading it, I hope you can give me an explanation." Mrs. Li said.
