Gu Yanqing said that he would return to Xia city in three days.

This was their original plan.

Coming to Hong Kong city was just to participate in a family gathering.

According to Gu Yanqing, there wouldn’t be any changes if she just came for a meal. It would be considered a vacation.

And indeed, in these three days, Gu Yanqing took her to all the streets and alleys of Hong Kong city.

He even went to the food street next to the University of Hong Kong city.

It really was like a vacation.

Gu Yanqing was too busy on weekdays.

Except for the occasional business trip abroad with Song Beibei, there was no way to spend the rest of his time traveling with her.

Even when they went abroad together, Gu Yanqing spent most of his time working.

Song Beibei spent most of her time alone in the hotel.

Song Beibei had a lot of fun these three days.

She followed Gu Yanqing to the streets and alleys and bought a lot of things

She brought gifts for Feifei, Zhong Junjie, and Huanzi.

The two of them left early and returned late, so they didn’t have any grudges with the Xiao family.

The next day, she saw Gu Yanqing’s biological sister, Xiao Mianjun.

It was just a quick glance from the corridor.

She wore professional attire, her makeup was exquisite, and her hair was tied up meticulously. It was simple but neat.

She only took one look at Song Beibei before she went up the stairs.

Song Beibei was slightly stunned.

Gu Yanqing’s sister’s aura was cold and powerful.

It was as if she was labeled as a strong woman.

At that time, Gu Yanqing was also beside her.

Xiao Mianjun didn’t even make a sound and went upstairs without calling him brother.

Song Beibei secretly went to see Gu Yanqing.

It was her first time meeting her own younger sister, so the atmosphere was a little awkward.

However, Gu Yanqing didn’t seem to care. He rubbed Song Beibei’s head. “What do you want to gossip about? ”

“Gu Yanqing, I think your younger sister really looks a little like you? ”

“How does she look like you? ”

“Her arrogant look is carved from the same mold. ”

Song Beibei felt that her status in this family was worrisome.

There was a father-in-law with an unclear attitude, a mother-in-law who obviously didn’t like her, and a sister-in-law who didn’t put her in her eyes at all.

She simply didn’t want to live with them in the future.

On the afternoon of the third day, she didn’t go out again.

Because at night, it was the clan gathering.

It was held in the Hexi Garden.

Starting from the afternoon, some people arrived one after another.

They were from the other bloodlines of the Xiao family.

More and more people gathered at the ground floor.

The brothers and sisters of the Xiao Family who rarely met were also gathered together.

Song Beibei followed Gu Yanqing down and made a round of gestures.

Those people were quite enthusiastic.

They were also enthusiastic about Gu Yanqing.

The Xiao family was huge. Gu Yanqing had a large number of cousins.

Many of them looked at her curiously.

Song Beibei followed behind Gu Yanqing. She felt a little like a peacock in the zoo.

Everyone always looked at her as if they were sizing her up.

Although most of them were just curious and wouldn’t feel uncomfortable, they felt a little uncomfortable.

After a while, Xiao Peishan sent someone to look for Gu Yanqing.

He said that he would personally go to the airport to pick up his uncle, Xiao Zhenping.

Xiao Zhenping was the most senior figure in the Xiao family. He was already eighty years old today and was Xiao Peishan’s big brother.

Xiao Peishan also went to the airport personally.

Thus, Gu Yanqing sent Song Beibei to the room upstairs

He asked her to wait for him to come back.

Song Beibei stayed in the room for a while.

She felt that with so many guests downstairs, it would not be good for her to stay in the room alone.

Moreover, the people of the Xiao family were very busy now.

Therefore, she also planned to go downstairs.

Her mother-in-law had a very bad impression of her. If she did not show a little hospitality in such a busy situation, she was really afraid that it would be difficult to get along with her in the future.

Therefore, she went downstairs alone.

She asked the housekeeper if there was anything she could help with.

The housekeeper did not dare to assign tasks to this first young mistress who had just arrived.

So he said, “Madam is in the storeroom. I don’t think there are enough people. Young mistress can go over there and help Madam. ”

Although Song Beibei did not want to meet Mu Lan face to face,

but when she thought that this person was Gu Yanqing’s mother, Song Beibei mustered up her courage.

Even if they did not live together in the future, they would still have to get along.

Song Beibei asked for the address and went to the storeroom.

Actually, it was just a room on the lower floor.

As expected, she saw Mrs. Xiao there.

It turned out that this storeroom was filled with all kinds of gifts from the people who came to visit today.

Mrs. Xiao was taking notes and counting.

All big families had this kind of rule.

In the future, there would be opportunities to ask for gifts back. It was part of the ways of the world.

Besides Mrs. Xiao, there were only two people inside.

One opened all kinds of gifts and showed them to Mrs. Xiao.

The other recorded the name of the giver and the gifts in a book.

Song Beibei was about to go in when she heard someone say, “Mrs. Xiao, this seems to be a gift from Young Madam this time. ”

Song Beibei was supposed to enter.

Hearing this voice, she stopped at the door.

Her back was pressed against the wall outside.

Suddenly, she felt an inexplicable nervousness.

Someone inside had already taken out the gift from the box. “Madam, what a beautiful jade carving. ”

As he spoke, he showed the jade carving to Mu Lan.

The person beside her seemed to know a little about jade. “The color of this jade is extremely beautiful. It should be an ancient jade. It’s very beautiful. Young Madam must have put in a lot of effort. ”

Song Beibei was very nervous.

However, she was a little secretly happy in her heart.

Mrs. Xiao should know what she was thinking, right.

She secretly leaned on the door and leaned over to take a peek.

What she saw was Mrs. Xiao’s furrowed brows.

She was holding a jade carving and a magnifying glass in her hand, as if she was carefully appraising it.

Song Beibei pursed her lips and sucked on it.

For a moment, it was as if she had been examined by Gu Yanqing when she was a child.

However, after a while, Mrs. Xiao suddenly sneered.

“Jade is good jade. It’s a Hetian jade from the warring states period. It’s just that the carving work is too rough. There are a few serious mistakes and cracks in several places. It’s definitely not a masterpiece. “If my guess is correct, it was carved by a jade lover himself, and he destroyed a piece of top-grade unpolished jade. This thing wouldn’t have much value on the market. ”

The two people next to him were surprised.

One of them asked, “this young lady is also a descendant of a famous family. Why would she use a worthless thing to mess with Madam? Madam is a jade expert. ”

Mu Lan’s face was still cold and indifferent. “that girl has no manners to begin with. ”

Mu Lan’s expression was rather displeased. She looked at the jade statue and frowned again. “This year is my natal year. I’m a horse, and she gave me a snake statue. Isn’t she trying to anger me? ”

Another person seemed to have come to a realization. “Isn’t that so? The old saying here is that snakes trip horses. People who are horses are most afraid of snakes. The last time great immortal fan read Madam’s fortune, he said that if he saw a snake, it would be a bad omen. ”

Another person said, “then Madam, what should we do with this jade statue? ”

Mu Lan casually said, “throw it away. Throw it away now. Throw it far away. Don’t let me see it again. ”

The person who took the jade carving said, “okay, Madam. Today is the day old man sun came to the kitchen to collect the rubbish. I just happened to see it. I threw this jade carving into his garbage truck and told him to take it away from Hexi Garden. I’m sure Madam will never see this eyesore again. ”

Song Beibei already heard the sound of people walking out from inside.

Song Beibei covered her mouth and held back her tears. She quickly hid behind a big box at the side

She did not get discovered.
