"Today is your eighty-fifth birthday, such an important day, how can I not come? The older generation is our most precious asset and deserves our respect. " The big man said.
The entire audience was full of smiles.
Kang Ying could be considered to have experienced the power of the old man this time. To be able to attract important figures to personally pay them a visit during New Year's Eve celebrations was not something that an ordinary person could enjoy.
The one behind Grandpa Murong was Shi Tao, and Shi Lang had followed him at some point in time.
Grandpa Murong and the big shot walked towards the inner courtyard.
Since the arrival of the distinguished guest, the guests had all spoken softly and elegantly with lowered voices. However, all of them had a look of pride on their faces.
Luo Muxin couldn't help but feel envious when she saw this scene.
It seemed that Grandpa Murong was indeed a treasure of the Shi Family. As long as he was healthy, his position in the Shi Family would be as steady as Mt. Tai.
Furthermore, Shi Tao's position had skyrocketed in these few years. If the old man could hold on for a few more years, his Shi Family would be able to smoothly transition …
Luo Muxin looked at Shi Jiangyuan, who was busy entering and exiting the university. Compared to Shi Jiangyuan on the university campus, Shi Jiangyuan was a lot calmer and seemed to be more useful.
Luo Muxin was secretly unresigned.
The expression on Wu Xin's face was indifferent. She had always done things based on her own heart, with a little bit of strength in her heart. She had never been one to hold back. The reason why she was able to be promoted was actually because she was diligently working and had received the appreciation of her superior.
Therefore, her support for the guests was not particularly cold, and she had never been a person who clung to her will.
The feast finally started. Kang Ying was invited to the main seat of the inner courtyard. Of course, she wasn't together with Grandpa Murong, but was sitting at the same table with Shi Jiangyuan and the others.
In this situation, Shi Lang was naturally obedient and didn't dare to make any mistakes.
Halfway through the banquet, the great being stood up and left. Although he did not eat all the way to the end, just the fact that he was here to celebrate made people feel that he had a deep friendship with Shi Family, much less personally attend the birthday banquet.
Grandpa Murong was in a good mood. His face was flushed red. After sending the big figures out, he then greeted everyone. There was no need to be polite. He let go of his meal and drank more wine to eat more dishes.
Since Grandpa Murong said so, everyone was very supportive of him.
On the other hand, Shi Jiangyuan thought that since his grandfather was getting older and had fewer and fewer chances of holding birthday feasts, he felt sad in his heart and felt that he should treat his grandfather better.
Kang Ying, on the other hand, once again experienced a life that was different from her previous life from an ordinary person's point of view.
If she chose Shi Jiangyuan, she would choose this life. In the eyes of the world, she was Cinderella who had married into a rich family.
Fortunately, she and Shi Jiangyuan were acquainted. If the Shi Jiangyuan that she just met was like this and let her know that the other person's background was illustrious, then it was possible that she and Shi Jiangyuan would never have a chance again.
Kang Ying appeared beside Shi Jiangyuan and sat at the main table. Naturally, she attracted everyone's attention.
After some questioning, it didn't take long before everyone seemed to know Kang Ying's identity, and the way they looked at her changed slightly.
The birthday feast ended and the guests dispersed. The lively scene quickly became a memory. Grandpa Murong was satisfied, but he was quite open-minded as he smiled and said:
"All of you come to celebrate. While it might seem very lively, after the guests leave, the ones remaining in the room will be us. That's why you all are the most precious."
Grandpa Murong was indeed transparent. Kang Ying felt a great shock within her heart when she heard this, and Shi Jiangyuan also seemed to be deep in thought. Only Shi Lang and his wife sneered.
They felt that the old tutor owed them for not transferring them back, not to mention the fact that an important figure was present today. The old tutor hadn't said a word about transferring them back to the capital, which made them even more unhappy.
In their minds, as long as the lordmaster took advantage of this opportunity to speak, how could the great characters not agree? Then their lives would have changed again, and they wouldn't have to suffer as much as they did in a small place.
Therefore, Shi Lang and his wife revealed discontented expressions after the birthday feast. They always had a stinky face.
Seeing this, Kang Ying felt more and more that Shi Lang was just a spoiled child and was still too immature. Luckily there was someone with a fortitude like Shi Tao at home holding him back, otherwise, his Shi Family would have been dragged into the water by Shi Lang long ago.
However, Kang Ying wasn't particularly worried about Shi Lang because in her previous life, until she was reborn, Shi Tao had always been sitting in that important position with a status as steady as a rock. Therefore, Shi Lang didn't cause any big waves.
Kang Ying initially wanted to help clean up the chores after the birthday banquet, but Cui Huixian refused. She said that since they were professionals, they would clean up the mess and had no choice but to give up the opportunity to show off.
Because she drank too much soup and water, she felt a little anxious and wanted to go to the bathroom.
But the bathroom in the front yard was taken over by someone, so Shi Jiangyuan told her to go to the backyard.
Kang Ying was still having a difficult time. From her point of view, the backyard was a private and secret place that she could not barge into.
Shi Jiangyuan, on the other hand, looked indifferent, "I'll take you in, just to the bathroom in my room."
Since Shi Jiangyuan had said so, Kang Ying could not continue anymore. Otherwise, she would look out of place.
However, she rejected the idea of letting Shi Jiangyuan take her there and went there alone.
Shi Jiangyuan had brought her to visit before, so she thought she knew how to walk this path.
After all, the courtyard structures were similar. There were corridors on both sides of the courtyard and rooms on the other side.
However, when Kang Ying passed through a Moon's Passage and walked between a row of bamboo forests, she mistook the direction she was heading towards and continued forward, oblivious to her surroundings.
After Kang Ying walked through the bamboo forest, she saw a light coming out from a room hidden in the bamboo bushes in front of her.
Kang Ying thought back to the general location and felt that it should be Shi Jiangyuan's yard. She touched along the light and heard someone's voice coming from the lighted room.
"Why are you so different? I am also your son. Before your mother died, you were very good to me. Now that your mother is dead, are you thinking of something else? So you got impatient when you saw me? "You want to send me away?"
Shi Lang's voice came from inside the room.
"Bastard, is this what you should say?" What followed was Grandpa Murong's angry voice.
Kang Ying jumped in fright as she realized that she had walked into the wrong place. Could it be that this is Grandpa Murong's yard?
"Hmph, belittling me like this is to pave the way for Big Bro. Even if you say that Big Bro can endure it, after ten years, watching my mom walk in, and following my mom's thoughts.
I admire him so much. He was calm and collected, so I got your favor. "
