“Swish!”
Everyone turned their gazes to Rong Yong’s table.
She said it in front of everyone, which might embarrass those family members in Rong Sheng’s branch.
But they couldn’t stop it. For it was Wang Sibei, the patriarch’s wife who was scolding others. She had authority over them.
And the other side was the branch of Rong Sheng and the sixth master, which was relatively too down-to-earth, even far away from the core of the family. If the other side was Rong Fan, a major who was the second master’s branch, or Rong Jin, a rich businessman who was the third Lord’s branch, would she speak that way?
Obviously, she couldn’t do the same thing in that case. However, Rong Sheng’s strength was poor, and he dared to debate with Wang Sibei in such a public place, which was beyond her control.
In fact, other people on the scene did not sympathize with Rong Sheng, and even thought that they should be reprimanded.
Even Rong Zhenxing, the patriarch, was silent and didn’t spare a glance at Rong Sheng, which showed his attitude.
After the shock just then, everyone was curious about the arrival of Zi Yan instead of being shocked. They were all waiting for something important to happen.
A few people whispered, “Why didn’t they inform the patriarch in advance that they would bring someone? No wonder they are being scolded.”
“Yes, it’s their fault. But I’m not concerned about it now. I wonder who that lovely girl beside Zi Yan is.”
“…”
Under everyone’s gaze, Rong Sheng’s face changed slightly.
Zi Yan’s chopsticks stopped, and Zhang Han took an indifferent look at Wang Sibei.
Rong Sheng laid down his chopsticks directly and looked at Wang Sibei with anger.
Rong Sheng looked at Mengmeng and said, “Come on, Mengmeng should eat more dumplings. These dumplings are really delicious. I especially order them for you, and I never invite others to eat it.”
“Thank you, grandpa.” Mengmeng said thanks as she slowly ate the dumplings.
“Haha, what a lovely girl.” Jia Wei smiled, then looked at Zhang Han and Zi Yan to say, “Han and Yan, you should eat more, too.”
“Okay, thank you.” Zi Yan replied with a smile.
Her smile stunned many people present.
Wang Sibei was even more dissatisfied. She snorted and slapped her chopsticks on the table.
The bang made the restaurant more quiet.
“Sheng and Yong.” Wang Sibei gave them a meaningful smile, “You brought them home for the new year, and as their elders, how could you not obey the rules? We are still sitting here. If you look down on us, you can go back to your room for dinner instead of staying here.”
“Jia Wei, you are Yong’s wife. Why don’t you care about him?”
“Besides…”
This time, without waiting for her to continue, Rong Jiaxin could not help standing up, frowning and saying, “Wang Sibei, stop talking like that. What authority do you have? If you want to say something, just say it. If you can’t, just shut up. If you keep telling nonsense, don’t blame me for being rude!”
“Bang!”
The whole restaurant fell into silence.
Those who were not familiar with Rong Jiaxin were very surprised. “Why is she not afraid of Wang Sibei at all?”
Wang Sibei’s face was red with anger. She was so furious that she jumped up from her seat. When she was about to say something, Rong Zhenxing, the patriarch, said, “That’s enough. The New Year’s Eve dinner is almost over. If you want to go back to have a rest, just do it. The annual meeting tomorrow is what all of you should consider!”
Hearing Rong Zhenxing’s words, Wang Sibei stopped talking although she was still angry. She no longer looked at Rong Jiaxin.
Wang Sibei knew that the family members of Rong Jiaxin’s husband were all powerful and influential, both in business circles and martial art circles, so she dared not to provoke her, not to mention that Wang Ming was sitting near Rong Jiaxin.
Rong Changjiang often praised the Wang family when he heard that Wang Ming had advanced to the stage of Martial Arts Grand Master, and Rong Jiaxin had advanced to the stage of Heaven-stage Master.
So even if she was dissatisfied, she could only close her mouth when faced with Rong Jiaxin.
Rong Zhenxing’s younger brother, Rong Zhenmao, a traffic chief, also said, “It’s New Year’s day today. Don’t worry too much about etiquette, sister-in-law. My brother is right. What matters now is tomorrow’s annual meeting.”
“Yes, mom.” At this time, Rong Zhenxing’s son also looked at Wang Sibei and said, “Be happy. If you are serious, you will lose the game. Don’t pay attention to the unimportant things.”
“Hum!” Wang Sibei, stood up and said with a cold snort, “You’re right. The New Year’s Eve dinner is over. I’ll go back to apply a mask.”
“Let’s go.” Rong Zhenxing, the patriarch, also stood up.
Around them, some of the elders stood up to leave.
Rong Fan, the major of the second master’s branch, and Rong Jin, the rich businessman of the third master’s branch, all got up and left. Almost 80% of the elders went back to their own “small family” to celebrate the new year.
There were a large number of young people, about twenty, who didn’t want to stand up at all and said, “I haven’t had enough.”
The group walked out of the restaurant while talking. When they left, they all looked at Zhang Han’s side.
In fact, those elders were also curious about Zi Yan. After all, she was a big star. And the little child seemed to be her and Zhang Han’s child, but they didn’t know the specific situation.
But they didn’t dared to ask about it because they might provoke Wang Sibei.
After all, she could persuade the patriarch since she was his wife. Therefore, no one went to greet Zhang Han, Zhang Li and Zi Yan.
That kind of atmosphere also made Mengmeng feel strange. Although she didn’t know what had happened, she knew that their family didn’t seem to be welcomed.
Mengmeng looked up at Zhang Han and asked in a low voice, “PaPa, they dislike us, right?” Zhang Han’s face changed slightly, and he pondered for two seconds. He calmly looked at the direction of Wang Sibei and then turned his gaze to Mengmeng. With a soft expression, he reached out to touch her little head and said, “Perhaps. Dad told you that not all people would like us. What should we do to those people?”
“Hmmm…” Mengmeng thought about it, and then said with a little grievance, “I don’t know. Why don’t they like us?”
“No matter what the reason is, we just don’t care about their ideas, because their ideas are worthless,” Zhang Han replied.
Zhang Han’s acting style was to protect and care about the people he should protect and care about, not just to be a good person. And he never thought he was a good person.
In such a large Cultivation World, no one could be called a “good person.” Everyone had their definitions of what was good or bad. Zhang Han also had a standard and was teaching his own rules to Mengmeng step by step.
After hearing those words, Zi Yan pursed her lips but said nothing. After contacting the martial arts world, Zi Yan’s views on education had also changed.
“Hey, whatever they do, let’s just enjoy the dishes,” said Zhang Li with a snort.
“Yes, why should we cause trouble during the Spring Festival?” Wang Ya echoed.
Although her first marriage was not perfect, after living in the Wang family, she felt that all people were peaceful and friendly.
“In fact, I wanted to tell them Han’s identity just now, but at that time, Wang Sibei’s attitude was not very good. I didn’t think it was necessary to tell the truth to her. When I become a director, I will speak with facts.” Rong Yong shook his head.
“What’s the matter? Just say it and scare them to death,” Rong Sheng said more broadly.
He didn’t care about anyone’s attitude.
“All right, all right.” Rong Jiaxin reluctantly shook her head and said, “Stop saying say that. Let’s enjoy the dishes and go out to see the fireworks after dinner.”
“Fireworks?” Mengmeng’s eyes were lit up with interest.
She remembered that in her Xanadu, fireworks were very, very beautiful.
“Yes, there will be some fireworks in our house later,” Rong Sheng said with a smile.
“PaPa, MaMa, I’m full.” Mengmeng laid down her chopsticks after hearing those words.
“How can Mengmeng eat so little? You have to eat more now because you’re growing up,” said Jia Wei with a smile.
“I can’t eat too much at night. I’ll get fat,” said Mengmeng seriously.
Everyone at the table was amused.
With such a cute girl present, the atmosphere would always be active.
