“Even Momo, who has been staying in the Old Mansion since she was a child, is half considered a member of the Wei family and has now become Zhiqian’s fiancée, she still only comes to pay New Year’s greetings on the first day of the Lunar New Year.” Old Madam said coldly, “She has never come to have New Year’s Eve dinner with us on the eve of the Lunar New Year.”
“Great-grandma, doesn’t everyone have different thoughts? Keqing is filial and not so pretentious. She just thought that it would be nice to come to our house on the eve of the Lunar New Year.” Wei Keli said.
“As far as I know, Ms. Yuan is the only daughter in the family. She doesn’t have any brothers or sisters, right?” Old Madam said, “The relationship between Ms. Yuan and the Tan Mansion has long been broken, and they won’t be spending the New Year together. You left your parents alone at home for the New Year, yet you came to show filial piety to our family. You’re really filial.”
Yuan Keqing knew that this Old Madam would not treat her well if she went there.
It was inevitable that she would have to mock or even humiliate her.
Therefore, Yuan Keqing was already prepared and had already predicted what the Old Madam would say.
She had already prepared her script.
When she heard the Old Madam’s words, Yuan Keqing was still able to maintain her smiling face. Even her smile did not stiffen.
“My father and mother will go to My grandpa and Granny’s place for the New Year.” Yuan Keqing said.
There were quite a few relatives in the Yuan Family.
Unlike the Tan Mansion, Tan Wenci’s relatives were scattered all over the world.
Tan Wenci’s parents had passed away long ago.
He had an elder brother and an elder sister.
Both of them emigrated to other countries long ago.
The three siblings did not have a close relationship and did not usually get in touch with each other.
They did not even get together during the holidays.
However, Yuan Keqing was rather envious of the Tan Mansion.
There had no poor relatives taking advantage of them and no top-notch relatives to compare to.
Unlike the Yuan Family.
Yuan Zhengwen was the most promising person.
It turned out that when Yuan Zhengwen was working under Tan Wenci, the relatives of the Yuan Family always asked Yuan Zhengwen to arrange jobs for them in Tanyue.
But Yuan Zhengwen himself had to rely on Tan Wenci, so how could he have the authority to arrange jobs for his relatives?
Later on, Yuan Zhengwen opened his own company and could make decisions. The relatives of the Yuan family all rushed over and insisted that Yuan Zhengwen arrange jobs for them.
However, Yuan Zhengwen was also a selfish person.
Look at how mediocre those people were. They could not help him at all.
Would they not just freeload in his company?
How could Yuan Zhengwen agree?
Thus, he got entangled with the relatives of the Yuan Family. There were a lot of stupid things going on all the time.
Yuan Keqing hated the bunch of relatives of the Yuan Family.
In the past, when they ate together during the Spring Festival, she had to restrain herself.
It was not easy to not have to celebrate the Spring Festival with them today. Even if she came to the old mansion and was met with cold remarks, Yuan Keqing would still be happier.
Besides, the Wei family was not on the same level as those poor relatives of the Yuan Family.
“After all, you and Keli are not married yet. If you come to celebrate the New Year, people might gossip about you.” Old Mister said in a low voice, “Keli, send Ms. Yuan back.”
“Grandpa, Granny.” Li Xiangrong said, “It’s already dinner time. It will take a long time for Keli to send Keli back and return. We can’t have the whole family wait for a junior like him.”
“Why don’t we let Keqing stay?” Li Xiangrong chimed in.
Wei Keli had received a huge investment from the Yuan Family.
Li Xiangrong also found Yuan Keqing pleasing to the eye recently.
“Then we won’t wait for him.” Old Madam said coldly, “It’s his fault for not thinking twice before bringing Yuan Keqing here.”
