At the banquet venue, Qin Yongmei and He Wanqinggang invited the two elders of the Qiao family to the main seat.
Qiao Nian wore a white low-slung dress and walked over gracefully accompanied by Xu Yingying.
Seeing Qiao Nian dressed up for the occasion, everyone present started talking.
"Is this the second young lady of the Qiao family? What a sign of whereabouts!" Someone praised.
"I heard that this girl is not only beautiful, but also has very good grades. She is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is a very talented woman!" someone complimented.
"But the eldest lady of the Qiao family is a bit hard to describe!" Someone whispered.
“…”
Jiang Yi looked at Qiao Nian's exquisite makeup, and for some reason, he thought of another pure and cold face.
Thinking that Qiao Qing might not remember him yet, she suddenly felt uneasy.
But after the experience of being beaten inexplicably last time, he didn't dare to act rashly again.
Jiang Huai lowered his head and looked at his son, "How are you getting along with Niannian recently? When can you settle this daughter-in-law for me?"
Jiang Yi pursed his lips and said nothing.
Qiao Nian felt more and more proud as she listened to the flattery and compliments from the people around her, but her face remained aloof.
She walked up to Qiao Zhizhuo and Meng Chunhua, bent down slightly and said, "Grandpa, grandma."
Qiao Zhizhuo smiled and nodded, then looked up at the crowd, "Why isn't the big girl here?"
"It should be here soon." He Wanqing said with some embarrassment: "Maybe there was some delay on the way. I'll call her."
"Brother and sister, Qingqing is already so old, how can she still find her way home?" Qin Yongmei said: "Besides, tonight is dad's birthday, what could be more important than this?"
As soon as Qin Yongmei finished speaking, Qiao Zhizhuo couldn't help but frown.
He Wanqing secretly thought it was bad. Just as he was about to signal Mu Jingheng in the field to call someone, he heard a report.
"I'm coming!"
"Huh? Why is she dressed like this?"
As the crowd moved out of the way, Qiao Qing held her trouser pocket in one hand and walked over in a cold and rusty voice, "Grandpa."
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on Qiao Qing, and they were immediately amazed.
I saw the girl in front of me with a high ponytail, clean and neat and full of infinite youthful vitality.
A small face without any makeup on her face is pure and cold, and her beauty seems to be otherworldly.
Every part of the exposed skin is so white that it seems to be glowing.
An extremely simple outfit also conveys the aura of a queen.
People can't help but think of a sentence, true nobility never lies in the gorgeous clothes, the noble temperament exuding in the bones cannot be packaged by others no matter what.
Qiao Nian, who was quite eye-catching just now, suddenly became vulgar when compared with Qiao Qing.
Moreover, Qiao Nian not only lost in temperament, but even her carefully made-up face was far less beautiful than Qiao Qing's bare face.
The surrounding voices praising Qiao Nian suddenly stopped after Qiao Qing appeared.
Qin Yongmei didn't need to see everyone's reactions to know that her daughter was being compared.
He couldn't help but curse under his breath, glanced at Qiao Zhizhuo, and said to Qiao Qing:
"Qingqing, look at you, today is your grandfather's birthday, such an important day, how can you dress so casually
This not only makes people feel that they don't pay attention to your grandfather's birthday banquet, but also seems that the Qiao family has treated you badly. Doesn't this damage your grandfather's reputation? "
Sure enough, as soon as Qin Yongmei finished speaking, Qiao Zhizhuo's face turned a little ugly.
He Wanqing immediately clenched his fingers and was thinking about how to solve it when he heard a male voice from the crowd...
