Being stared at by dozens of pairs of eyes is actually nothing to Ye Wanqing, but the owners of these dozens of pairs of eyes are descendants of the Gu family, and most of them are people who stand at the top of the upper class pyramid.
These people were used to seeing the treacherous situation in the shopping mall, and their eyes were as sharp as hawks, as if they were entities, which made Ye Wanqing's skin ache.
She regretted letting Gu Jinyuan carry her downstairs, but at this time, she couldn't let Gu Jinyuan put her down.
With no other choice, Ye Wanqing could only force herself to show a professional fake smile.
She has specially practiced it, and the curve of the raised corners of her lips is quite perfect. It will not be too flattering, and it can also convey the false message that she is easy to get along with to the maximum extent.
After going downstairs, Gu Jinyuan took Ye Wanqing to the dining table and sat down.
The dining table in the Gu family's old house is very long, imitating the long oval table used for foreign palace banquets in the Middle Ages. The table is several meters long, with an empty center and carefully cultivated flowers.
The chair was upholstered in red leather, and the frame was made of inch-long gold edging. Ye Wanqing didn't know if the frame was made of pure gold, but her attention was completely attracted by the sterling silver tableware placed in front of her.
The bowls, plates, and chopsticks all have very exquisite carving patterns, and the workmanship is so exquisite that even a layman like Ye Wanqing who doesn't know anything about it can vaguely feel the expensiveness of this set of tableware.
However, she controlled her expression very well and did not make a fuss or show too much surprise.
She is Mrs. Gu now, how can people see that she is actually a country bumpkin whose imagination has been limited by poverty?
"Jin Yuan, dad hasn't come yet, how can you let her sit down first?"
Someone raised a question, and Ye Wanqing wanted to turn her head to see who it was. Gu Jinyuan leaned over and stuffed the lace-edged napkin into the collar of her dress in a considerate and gentlemanly manner, and raised his hand to help her arrange it.
His movements were gentle and his eyes were focused. His fingertips accidentally touched her chest. She suddenly felt her scalp numb, but she still endured it and nodded with a smile: "Thank you!"
"My wife's feet hurt and she can't stand."
Gu Jinyuan said forcefully, pulled out the chair and sat down next to Ye Wanqing, followed the same pattern, stuffing the napkin into the collar of his clothes, as if he were at home, without caring about the eyes of others.
Since that person dared to raise doubts, he naturally would not give up just because of Gu Jinyuan's words. He sneered coldly: "Since you can't stand, what do you need this leg for? Why don't you use it and never stand again for the rest of your life?" !”
Ye Wanqing: "..."
Brother, are you manic? My legs will be destroyed if I disagree with you. Gu Jinyuan deserves a beating for what he says. If you don't like it, just beat him. Why are you taking offense at me?
Ye Wanqing's lips twitched and she subconsciously closed her legs.
Gu Jinyuan ignored the man and brought a fruit plate on the table to Ye Wanqing: "There is still a little time before the official banquet begins. Let's eat some fruit first to cushion our stomach."
The fruit plate is not just cut into pieces and mixed with salad dressing. Instead, it is carved with various fruits and peels, and is arranged on a stand to look like a dragon and a phoenix.
The exquisite carving skills made Ye Wanqing have the urge to take out her mobile phone to take a photo and post it on her WeChat Moments with the text "Holy shit".
She really can't imagine the happiness of rich people!
"I'm not hungry yet."
Ye Wanqing refused with a smile. The fruit plate was so beautiful that she felt she would be full just by looking at it.
Gu Jinyuan did not cooperate with her reserved performance. He raised his hand to pick off the 'crest' and fed it to her mouth. He could not refuse and said, "Eating more fruits is good for your health."
Everything was in her mouth, and Ye Wanqing had no reason to spit it out. She took a bite, and the sweet taste of milky fragrance bloomed on her taste buds. It was the top milky strawberry.
The taste was so good that Ye Wanqing couldn't help but squint her eyes and let out her enjoyment.
It’s so delicious!
As a mother, whenever she encounters something good, the first thing she thinks of is her child.
So after Ye Wanqing sighed in her heart, she immediately turned to ask Jin Yuan: "Where are Mumu and Linlin?"
Lin Lin will definitely be very happy after eating such a delicious fruit plate.
Just after he asked, before Gu Jinyuan could answer, Ye Chenlin's excited voice came from the door: "Mommy!"
Following the sound, Ye Chenlin and Gu Zhenmu walked in one after another. They were both wearing white shirts and black suits. They had specially styled hair styles. They were very handsome young gentlemen.
There were many people in the hall, but they all spontaneously made way for them. Ye Chenlin didn't know how to describe timidity, so he ran to Ye Wanqing's side.
Although he and Gu Zhenmu were dressed exactly the same, their personalities were so different that everyone immediately distinguished him.
"Is this the child living outside? He looks too similar."
"What's the use of just looking alike? You don't have any etiquette at all, but you know what it's like to shout and yell? What a pity!"
Some people were whispering to each other, but their voices were not deliberately lowered, enough for Ye Wanqing to hear clearly.
They didn't care about Ye Wanqing's feelings at all, they intended to humiliate Ye Wanqing and also test how much Gu Jinyuan valued Ye Wanqing.
Ye Wanqing didn't care about their humiliation, but she couldn't bear their pointing fingers at Ye Chenlin.
She wiped the non-existent strawberry juice on the corners of her lips with a napkin, smiled at the corners of her lips, and looked across the crowd at the two people who had just spoken.
They were a man and a woman. The man was in a suit and leather shoes and looked to be in his early twenties. The woman was wearing a light blue tube top dress and was only about 20 years old. They looked like a father and daughter, with exactly the same arrogant expressions. After noticing Ye Wanqing's eyes revealed unabashed disdain.
"I was born poor and didn't receive much good education, but I also know a truth. People who gossip behind people's backs were called women with long tongues in ancient times. After death, they will go to hell and have their tongues removed. The Gu family The etiquette is so strict, haven't you learned such simple and easy-to-understand principles?"
After Ye Wanqing finished speaking, she picked a piece of fruit gracefully and handed it to Ye Chenlin.
In terms of support, with Gu Jinyuan here, she is not afraid of anyone. In terms of eloquence, sorry, she has been ranked among the top ten debaters in the college debate competitions in two cities, and one year she debated with opponents from the legal profession. .
She is a person who can suffer any grievance. Once a child is involved, she turns into a hedgehog and pricks anyone who dares to touch her!
The expressions of the two people changed, as if they didn't expect Ye Wanqing to dare to be so confident and confrontational.
Just as he was about to speak again, Gu Zhenmu walked to Ye Chenlin and sat down beside him. He raised his eyes and looked at the two people calmly: "Second uncle, cousin, how is brother Lin Lin? It's something that dad should worry about and it has nothing to do with you. .”
Gu Zhenmu's character is 100%25 the true version of Gu Jinyuan's, and he can make people furious as soon as he opens his mouth.
After all, the middle-aged man had more experience and could barely keep his composure, but the woman couldn't bear it anymore and pointed at Gu Zhenmu angrily: "What do you mean it has nothing to do with us? Gu Zhenmu, this is what you and your elders are doing The way you speak?"
