Chapter 644: Show it to Grandma
This was a huge semi-buffet cocktail party. After all, you couldn't ask everyone to sit at a round table and drink and watch a show, and then line up to toast, right?
However, the Wang family members who came from the mainland actually sat in the front row with their relatives, eating and watching.
Who did Wang Quan and Miao Cui know? They only knew the relatives of the third and second wives. As for the relatives of the other wives, they had become familiar with them in the past two days, including Zheng Juan's family.
So they mainly chatted and watched shows.
Fu Qi was notified in advance and specially arranged for the artists to go to the old lady to toast after their performances. Apart from the in-laws, they only knew these artists, and the old lady didn't recognize any of the other high-ranking officials, wealthy people, and elites.
This made the Wang family very happy. The stars from TV and movies came to toast and say auspicious words.
Except for the Big Three, accompanied by Wang Yuanchao, who toasted Miao Cui and Wang Quan, everyone else can go find whoever you need, even Wang Yuanchao is fine, but don't disturb Old Wang's family from watching the performance, otherwise they will find it annoying.
Everyone knew very well what the main purpose of coming to celebrate the birthday today was, but no one knew that fashionable old lady.
Speaking of which, today is Miao Cui's birthday, and there are so many guests. It would be a shame to just watch those stars come to toast and disturb the real guests.
She still knows the importance of this.
Although many people did not have the opportunity to toast the old lady, Miao Cui still went on stage and raised a glass with everyone to accept everyone's congratulations.
Wang Quan couldn't hold it anymore. Miao Cui pulled him back for a long time, but he refused to go up with her. She said a lot of nice things to him and even said that today was her good day and she was the protagonist. He was speaking from the heart.
Wang Quan didn’t dare to go up, so how could the other brothers and sisters dare to go up?
Finally, it was Wang Yuanchao who accompanied his biological mother onto the stage.
Miao Cui's heart was also in turmoil, as it brought back all her memories of when she was a lady decades ago.
Fortunately, with his son by his side, he felt very confident. His demeanor and manners were also very decent. He was not at all like the ignorant and backward people in the mainland as everyone thought.
Such a fashionable and elegant old lady, is the mainland already so open?
The toasts were made soon after the show started and the performance on stage continued. After the stars’ performances, they came to the front of the stage to toast, which was their exclusive honor.
The main creative staff of The Bund all went on stage and first sang the theme song "The waves are running, the waves are flowing..." together and then began to perform a short stage play, which was a reproduction of a classic scene in the TV series.
Wang Xiao came between grandpa and grandma and said:
"Grandpa, grandma, that girl coming over, is she pretty?"
The old couple followed their grandson's gaze and saw a girl standing in a corner outside the stage. She looked around. She was pretty, and although she was dressed very formally, she still had a unique charm.
Miao Cui was very smart, and immediately whispered:
"Your partner?"
Wang Quan didn't say anything, but his ears moved and stood up like antennas.
Wang Xiao whispered:
"My dad wouldn't let me bring him home to kowtow to you two, saying he was worried it would be bad for Brother Wencheng and Brother Weidong. But I want to show it to you, Grandma and Grandpa."
Wang Quan felt very uncomfortable after hearing this. On the one hand, he couldn't help but want to have four generations living under one roof. On the other hand, nowadays, he still had to study more and learn skills. What if he got married too early and his life was wasted?
He was so conflicted that his mouth and eyebrows kept moving, and he really didn't know what to say.
Miao Cui, on the other hand, turned her head and looked at her second grandson, which made Wang Xiao feel uneasy. Then he heard the grandmother sigh and said:
“It really is the offspring of the Wang family.
However, your grandfather and I don’t know whether she is the daughter-in-law of Old Wang.
It depends on you and the girl.
What's the girl's name?"
Grandma asked about it, which means she doesn't object, right? Who has the final say in this family? Besides Dad, it's Grandma.
Of course, Dad Wang Yuanchao didn't object, he just didn't let us bring anyone here today.
So he said happily:
"Cherry Chung, the Zhong in Zhongshan, the Chu in Chuhe Hanjie, and the Hong in red. She is also an actress."
This introduction has a strong mainland flavor.
Miao Cui nodded and said:
"Then talk to her later and ask her to follow the group of people on the stage and come over to toast. Your grandfather and I will also be able to take a closer look at you."
Wang Xiao couldn't help but be stunned. She was really his own grandma! How caring!
Ah Hong is a movie actress. Unfortunately, her works have not been widely promoted in the mainland. She is not well-known enough and has no chance to perform on stage. But Wang Xiao thinks that the best way to show filial piety to the elderly is to bring his girlfriend home. So he wants to take the initiative to inform his grandparents of his feelings.
So he held up his grandmother's head and kissed her cheek hard, leaving her mouth full of powder.
Miao Cui smiled and patted her second grandson, saying:
"You kid, you ruined grandma's makeup! Go now."
Wang Xiao ran out on tiptoe.
Wang Quan couldn't help but said:
"The Yuan Chaos told him not to bring it, so why did you let him bring it over?"
Miao Cui said with a half-smile:
"Your Wang family has good genes. I feel that girl is more mature than Wang Xiao, so we need to get a closer look." Wang Quan grabbed his wife's hand and whispered proudly:
"It's better to have an older daughter-in-law, she can manage the household, be caring, and give birth to smart children."
Wang Xiao quickly ran to Cherie Chung and waved to his anxious girlfriend, asking her to come over.
His cousins were all watching the show, so no one really cared if he slipped out. However, he didn't dare to stay with Cherie Chung in front of everyone and openly go against his father's request.
Zhong Chuhong followed Wang Xiao to the back of the stage and heard Wang Xiao say:
"My grandma wants to see you!"
The first sentence was such a heavy news, and Cherie Chung was shocked and said:
"Didn't you tell me to just stand over there and let the old man see me?"
Wang Xiao smiled and said:
"My grandma is happy today, which is rare. If she is happy, she will have a good impression of you. My parents will probably not have any objections in the future."
Zhong Chuhong was a little hesitant. She had never met Wang Xiao's parents... She was no longer a child. She really didn't know if she could cross the threshold of a wealthy family. She looked at her boyfriend with some emotion. He was indeed good to her, but she was still worried.
"If your father saw it..."
Wang Xiao slapped his head and said:
"Look, I haven't finished talking yet. My grandma has given you an idea. She wants you to follow the guests on the stage and toast together. They have finished their performance. Come on, hurry up and catch up."
"Ah?" Cherie Chung had to pick a glass of champagne from the waiter's tray next to her and followed the guests on the stage. In front of her was Jing Daiyin, who played A'di in "The Bund", a kind-hearted girl from a poor family who had never been to school. However, she became Xu Wenqiang's wife when he was at his lowest point, and was finally killed by the killer sent by Feng Jingyao.

Jing Daiyin clearly felt that someone was following her from behind. She turned her head slightly and saw that it was Cherie Chung.
Cherie Chung was a little embarrassed and could only explain in a low voice:
"Ah Xiao asked me to go with you to toast."
It was no secret in Hong Kong that Cherie Chung was dating the eldest son of the second wife of the Wang family. They had even been on TV! Now that they were going to toast together, Jing Daiyin must have done something good. She consciously took Cherie Chung's hand, smiled and whispered:
"It's because of your boyfriend's family.
Otherwise, small characters like us wouldn’t have the opportunity to perform at the Hong Kong Coliseum and even toast there.”
Zhong Chuhong could only smile and followed the main group, saying:
"I'm nervous as hell, too."
She had already noticed that her boyfriend had slipped back to the main seat in front of the stage and was looking at her.
She had no choice but to smile back, signaling the other party not to worry, she would catch up!
Jing Daiyin also saw the young master of the Wang family looking over here, so she comforted him:
"Look, Prince Wang is really nice to you. He probably wants to move up the social ladder."
When Chung Chu-hong heard this, she thought that bypassing her parents and following her grandmother's path would be the upper class path. So she felt that she couldn't lose face for her boyfriend, so she said to Jing Dai-yin in front of her:
"Thank you for your good wishes!"
Jing Daiyin smiled and said "Come on", and then she didn't say anything else. Chow Yun-fat and Zhao Yazhi, who were at the front, had already toasted Mrs. Wang and her husband and said a toast.
Everyone went to the middle first and lined up to toast the birthday couple, and then divided into left and right to toast the other guests of the Wang family.
Because there are many men in Lao Wang's family, Zhao Yazhi was warmly welcomed.
Not only men like it, Miao Cui also likes it. She grabbed Zhao Yazhi's hand and said to her husband with a smile:
"Isn't this girl pretty? She's prettier in person than on TV! Hey, come on, let's take a picture together!"
Xu Wenqiang and Feng Chengcheng are still worthy of taking a photo together as a couple.
As for the singing stars, Miao Cui was not interested.
Zhang Mingmin, whom Wang Quan is interested in, is still preparing backstage. He is standing at the back because he wants to wait for the three giants of Hong Kong to leave first. Otherwise, if he starts singing, it would be like slapping himself in the face in public.
Wang Yuanchao naturally noticed the excitement on his mother's side. The power of "The Bund" was so terrifying, but as long as his mother was happy, it was fine.
Just as he was about to see Shen Bi off, he noticed that Wang Xiao's girlfriend, Cherie Chung, was also being held by his mother!
Otherwise, how can we say that there is a tacit understanding between father and son? Wang Xiao unconsciously glanced in the direction of his father Wang Yuanchao, and his eyes met with Wang Yuanchao's, and then he quickly looked away, as if he had not looked at this side at all.
This little bastard, is he ignoring his words?
Wang Yuanchao didn't have time to teach his son a lesson at this moment, so he sent Hong Kong's God of Wealth Shen Bi to the door.
The gift Shen Bi gave to the old lady today was a golden Buddha weighing dozens of kilograms. Who would have thought that Wang Damo, who had to rely on HSBC for loans, would become the current Earl Wang? Not to mention, when he returned to Europe for vacation, Wang Yuanchao also visited him with Princess Anne.
It's a complete reversal!
Not to mention, the daughter of the President of the United States gave birth to three children for him.
There were really only four words in his mind: so horrible.
However, although Wang Yuanchao was now in a high position with a lot of power and money, he was still very polite to him and never gave him less than what he deserved. His account in the Swiss bank was also very full, which was a testimony to their friendship.
There were many guests present today, and after toasting the old lady, he, the God of Wealth of Hong Kong, could not monopolize Earl Wang forever, so after the Governor left, he also left.
Apart from Earl Wang, there is no one here who needs his protection, and it is others who protect him.
