When Gu Ning asked this question, the room instantly became quiet.
Everyone looked at each other.
Gu Xiangfang was the first to react, his eyes flashing.
He took the initiative to take a step forward, helped Gu Ning put on her clothes, and straightened her collar.
"Yes, the third uncle and the third aunt went to several places in the afternoon to buy it, right? The third uncle and the third aunt?"
After Gu Xiangfang took the initiative to answer.
Gu Jianshe reacted quickly and said hurriedly, "Yes, Ning Ning, put it on and see if you like it?"
But we can't let Ning Ning know about it.
This dress was delivered to my door by Zhou Zhiyuan.
If she knew, she would never accept it.
Gu Ning felt that something was not right, but looking at the family members who were smiling sincerely, she didn't think much about it.
Her attention was quickly diverted by the clothes on her body. She preferred bright red to pure white.
I have to say that this red coat really suits her liking.
Gu Ning's skin was smooth and fair, and her eyebrows were picturesque. The bright red color made her look as gorgeous as a peach and a plum, and she was breathtakingly beautiful.
At this moment, everyone was stunned.
Gu Xiangfang's eyes flashed with surprise, "Ning Ning, you are really suitable for wearing red."
Not only did the red not overwhelm her, but it actually seemed to complement each other.
She is incredibly bright and beautiful.
Gu Ning naturally also likes red, seeing everyone's reaction.
She knew it well, "Thank you, Mom and Dad, I like the clothes very much!"
She originally planned to wear old clothes from the past.
Gu Ning actually didn't attach much importance to this recognition banquet.
For her, these are all external things.
Her face is enough.
Beat everyone up!
Even though she is naked, she is extremely confident in her face!
However, she doesn't want it, which is different from her parents' concern.
She sees her parents' intentions in her eyes. What could be more important than getting her parents' love?
Hearing Gu Ning say he was satisfied, Gu Jianshe and the others breathed a sigh of relief. They had mixed feelings, it must be said, to a certain extent.
Zhou Zhiyuan understands Ning Ning better than they, who are relatives!
It's no exaggeration to say that this dress is tailor-made, not to mention that Ning Ning likes it.
"Okay Ningning, I've been running around all afternoon in the cold weather. Let's go and rest early. We have business tomorrow!"
Liu Shuzhen, a mother, began to urge her.
She was also afraid that after being in contact for a long time, Gu Ning would find out that they were lying.
Gu Ning was running around all afternoon and was indeed a little tired. She thought about it, took out nearly two thousand yuan from her body, and handed it to Liu Shuzhen, "Mom, you can keep this money at home for future use."
The clothes she is wearing are probably not cheap.
I guess they have spent all the money I gave to my parents before.
A thick pile of money, at least four digits.
"Ning Ning, where did you come from?"
Liu Shuzhen was a little shocked, "Our family is not short of money, so don't do anything illegal!"
In her eyes, except for illegal things like loan sharking, there is no other way to make money so quickly.
Gu Ning smiled and said a few words into Liu Shuzhen's ear.
Liu Shuzhen's eyes lit up, "Really?"
Gu Ning hummed, "Of course it's true."
With these words, Liu Shuzhen collected the money with confidence.
After Gu Ning entered, Gu Jianshe scratched his head and wanted to know what Gu Ning had said to Liu Shuzhen before.
However, Liu Shuzhen gave her a look and said, "This is our mother-in-law's secret. You will know it tomorrow!"
Liu Shuzhen is undoubtedly good-looking. She is obviously in her late thirties, but she looks like she is in her early thirties.
The fine lines at the corners of the eyes add a touch of gentleness and elegance.
This glance made Gu Jianshe's heart tighten and he was a little crazy, "Shu Zhen, you are so beautiful."
Once you say this.
Gu Xiangfang couldn't help but laugh, and quietly pulled Yangyang away.
They really had enough of the dog food from their uncle and aunt.
only.
When looking at the lights in Gu Ning's room.
Gu Xiangfang felt a little heavy. They had lied. They could hide it for a while, but could they hide it forever?
…
Late at night, An Jia should have fallen asleep.
At this time, the lights were brightly lit.
Because, with only a few hours left, the family recognition banquet that everyone in Anzhou City knows will begin.
Even at this moment.
Ding Shuli was still unwilling to give in.
Ding Shuli held on to her last bit of determination and knocked on the study door.
The people in the study seemed to be waiting for her.
Just after she knocked, a voice came from the study room, "Come in -"
This shocked Ding Shuli. She always felt that the old man seemed to know that she was coming.
Ding Shuli pinched the corners of her cotton-padded coat, stepped on three-centimeter high heels, and walked in.
The high heels made a squeaking sound on the floor.
In this silent night, it is particularly obvious.
And outside the door.
An Mingzhi looked at his sister An Jiao with some worry, "Tell me, can grandpa listen to mom's advice? Can he cancel the wedding?"
An Jiao was a little lost in thought. After a while, she asked, "Brother, what did you say?"
"Jiaojiao, what's wrong with you? You've been acting strange since this afternoon."
An Mingzhi was a little strange. He raised his hand and touched An Jiao's forehead, "Are you sick?"
An Jiao suddenly took a step back, distanced herself from An Mingzhi, and said in a panic, "Brother, I'm fine, I'm going back to the room first!"
After knowing the truth, she didn't want to see her mother or her brother again.
An Mingzhi felt a little strange that his sister had always relied on him and was so evasive.
However, this was no longer the time for him to be weird, because there were more important things waiting for her.
He put his ear against the red painted wooden door of the study and listened quietly.
In the study room.
"You're here -"
An Lao was half leaning on the rocking chair with his eyes closed tightly. He was covered with a blanket and a half-open book was placed on top of the blanket.
The moment Ding Shuli came in, he put the book upside down on his lap, opened his eyes, and looked at the other person quietly.
Under his gaze, nothing seemed to be hidden.
Ding Shuli stepped on her high-heeled shoes for a moment. She subconsciously relaxed her strength and tried to calm herself down.
She took a deep breath and said, "Dad, can we cancel the marriage recognition party tomorrow?"
Whether it was Gu Ning or Gu Yao, she didn't want them to break the current peace in the An family's house.
Finally, the second bedroom was gone, and the eldest bedroom dominated the An family.
Mr. An put down his book, picked up the teacup, and took a sip gently, "No--"
There was no hesitation in his tone.
Even though I knew that my father-in-law had this attitude, it still made me sad when I heard it with my own ears.
She has been the daughter-in-law of the An family for almost twenty years, and she is worse than a bastard living outside.
The more Ding Shuli thought about it, the more she resented it. She clenched her hands tightly, "Dad, if the recognition banquet is held normally and Gu Ning and Gu Yao come back, then--"
She closed her eyes, her heart tightened, and she took out her final trump card.
"Then I will take Mingzhi and Jiaojiao back to Ding's house, and from now on they will take my last name of Ding!"
She has run out of tricks.
During this period of time, she had not thought about sabotaging the wedding.
However, all the strategies were invisibly resolved.
She didn't believe it if Mr. An didn't take action.
Now, she really has no choice.
Then he took a pair of children and left Anjia as a threat.
Because this is the best card in her hand.
It is also the lifeblood of Anjia.
But, Ding Shuli was disappointed.
Mr. An was so quiet that he put down his teacup, which rested on the table with a crisp sound.
He sat upright in the rocking chair and quietly looked at his daughter-in-law, who had been widowed for many years.
His tone was calm, "Are you threatening me?"
Those eyes made Ding Shuli's scalp tighten.
However, the arrow had to be fired when it was on the string. She had no choice but to reach this point.
Now that she has played this card, she will continue on.
Ding Shuli pinched her palms to encourage herself and looked up at Mr. An.
"Dad, I am not threatening you, I am discussing with you. Have you ever thought about what Mingzhi and Jiaojiao will do if Gu Yao and Gu Ning come back? Mingzhi is the eldest grandson of the An family!"
"Even if you don't do it for our mother's sake, you do it for the sake of your dead son.
You can’t let my man die with his eyes open in the underground, right?”
Bullying their mother-in-law!
Isn't that just letting her man die underground with his eyes open?
This is really heartbreaking.
Who is the man Ding Shuli?
That was Mr. An's biological son, the biological son who died young.
It was an indescribable pain in An Lao's heart.
Mr. An knew that his daughter-in-law had evil intentions, but he never expected that she could be so shameless.
Change his name and threaten him with death.
An Lao was so angry that he swung the teacup off the coffee table. The teacup fell to the ground and shattered into pieces with a snap.
"Ding Shuli, please figure out who you are talking to!"
"Even if the boss is here, he is not qualified to stop me from welcoming Pingle and Gu Ning and others home!"
"He is not qualified, and you are even less qualified!"
The scalding tea splashed on my face, and the broken glass pricked me, but I didn't care about the hatred and pain in my heart.
Ding Shuli's face turned pale. She stood up and shouted hoarsely, "All of us can't compare to your Anpingle, right?"
Mr. An raised his eyelids and uttered one word, "Yes!"
"Well, since the dead can't stop you, then I, the living one, can do it.
We can only take Mingzhi and An Jiao away, this An family cannot accommodate the orphans and widowers of our eldest family!"
Ding Shuli gritted her teeth.
Apart from this method, she had no other option.
I thought that Anlao, who always valued his children and grandchildren, would retain them.
But I didn't expect it.
Mr. An raised his head and looked at her coldly, "Okay, if you want to leave, leave now, preferably overnight! Never go back to An's house again!"
This time.
Ding Shuli was dumbfounded.
Completely dumbfounded.
The whole person froze. She never expected that she would play her last trump card.
An Lao actually let them go!
Ding Shuli really wanted to say, just leave.
Say it.
However, her throat seemed to be stuck with glue and she couldn't pronounce it.
After all, she couldn't bear to part with the prosperity and wealth of An family!
An Mingzhi, who had been eavesdropping outside, finally couldn't bear it anymore. He broke in through the door and rushed in.
At that moment, the people in the tense room immediately looked over.
In particular, Mr. An's face was extremely cold.
An Mingzhi took a step forward and said bravely, "Grandpa, don't listen to my mother's nonsense. The An family is our home. We will not leave and cannot leave. Jiaojiao and I will always be the descendants of the An family and your descendants."
——”
After a pause, he took a deep breath and said again:
"When Gu Ning and Gu Yao return to the An family, they are the An family and my brothers and sisters. I will treat them as my biological sisters and biological brothers."
After saying this long paragraph.
An Mingzhi stood quietly aside.
Ding Shuli, who was standing next to her, looked shocked. She raised her hand and slapped An Mingzhi.
"Mingzhi, are you crazy?"
He actually regards these two bitches Gu Ning and Gu Yao as his biological sisters. What about Gu Yangyang?
Do you want to treat him as your biological brother?
Will you give them everything Anjia has in the future?
"I think you are crazy."
An Lao, who had been sitting in the rocking chair, stood up and clamped Ding Shuli's wrist.
He sneered, "A child can see clearly better than you."
"You are worse than a child!"
The arm that was clamped was aching.
What hurts even more is the son's betrayal and the father-in-law's accusation.
Ding Shuli couldn't stay any longer, so she covered her face and prepared to leave.
Mr. An, however, stared at her back and said in a calm tone, "There's nothing going to happen at the recognition banquet tomorrow. Ding Shuli, get out of the An family."
This is to drive this daughter-in-law away!
Ding Shuli froze and left the study like a puppet on strings.
She knew there was nothing she could do to save her!
Putting them all together, in An Lao's eyes, might not be as good as a single hair on Gu Ning's head.
And after Ding Shuli left.
Mr. An looked at his beaten grandson. He felt distressed and a little complicated.
"You are more conscious than your mother. As for today, I hope you will keep your word——"
An Mingzhi covered his face. The exposed outer edge was a little red and swollen. He lowered his head and suppressed the expression in his eyes.
He whispered, "Grandpa, I know you want to see Gu Ning and I get along in harmony. Don't worry, I will."
With these words, Mr. An hummed, "You are also my grandchildren, and I, An Zhiguo, will not treat you badly."
After a pause, he glanced at him and said, "Mingzhi, a man has his ambitions in all directions. He must not let a woman's vision delay his future."
An Mingzhi wanted to laugh, but he held it back and said respectfully:
"Grandpa, I know, I will also advise you from my mother's side."
"Well, you go down!" He paused and watched his grandson leave.
An Lao said again, "I will not pursue the matters you participated in before, but in the future, I don't want you to fall behind!"
An Mingzhi felt cold all over. He seemed to have the illusion that everything they did could not be hidden from Mr. An's eyes.
An Mingzhi took a deep breath and said, "No, Grandpa."
"Tomorrow, I will maintain order at the marriage recognition banquet and let you see my changes."
Now that Gu Ning and Gu Yao are going to return to Anjia, he will definitely gain Anlao's heart before them.
…
Recognition banquet.
The entire Anjia area was bustling with traffic and bustling, with big shots from the upper class circles of Anzhou City coming and going.
