"Second Aunt, thank you so much today! I was just busy with the Jade Sheep matter and didn't even have a chance to introduce you. Last time when Second Uncle had an accident, didn't I give you a list of people to contact? Those were provided by Mr. Yu XiaoYu himself. It's rare that everyone has met each other, don't you think it's time to thank him?" Gu Mian stopped Second Aunt from sneaking away.
Er Biao's face stiffened for a moment, then turned to look at Gu Mian and Yu Xiao. Her heart was ignited with anger by Gu Mian's words.
Thank you?
Pffft!
But all they got was a list, and nothing else to show for it. If she hadn't exerted herself to the point of almost running her legs off, Gu Rong and Peng Jun would still be stuck in the police station for who knows how many days.
This Gu Miao also has the nerve to let her come and apologize, as if she had forgotten how she refused at first and didn't care about anything except giving a list.
Second Aunt secretly rolled her eyes and thought that Gu Mei was really shameless, she hadn't even noticed before!
In her heart, she was not satisfied, but Aunt Er's face did not dare to show it. She wasn't blind, after all. Gu Mian had obviously set up a big trap for people to jump into, just because that Yu Xiao had appeared, and Qiu Yan's family had spent 800,000 yuan buying a jade sheep. This Yu Xiao was probably also someone you couldn't afford to offend.
Qiu Yantang's sister and her family are not people you can afford to offend, so she is even less someone you can afford to offend!
So Second Aunt could only force out a faint smile, suppressing the urge to scold Gu Meiyan severely, and said to Yu Xiao: "Mr. Yu, I really want to thank you for what happened last time."
"So you're Miss Gu's second aunt!" Yu Xiao looked at her with a hint of curiosity.
Gu Mian and her second aunt have been at odds, he had noticed it since the last time something happened at the restaurant. Today's events he didn't know all about, but he understood the general idea. Cai Cheng spent 800,000 to buy Gu Mian's Jade Sheep, this second aunt is indeed not to be underestimated.
Second Aunt nodded awkwardly, unsure of what to say. She then went to the August 1st Chinese restaurant.
Yu Xiao didn't say much to Er Shu either, and soon withdrew his gaze. After all, this involved Gu Mei's family affairs, and he was too embarrassed to ask more questions.
At this time, someone came to find Erniang and asked her to hurry up and entertain the guests. Erniang finally seized this opportunity and pulled Erbo away in a flash.
Gu Meng looked at Er Shu's fleeing back, which was like being chased by a turtle, and couldn't help but laugh out loud. If Yu Xiao wasn't standing next to her, she would have burst into three loud guffaws.
She had been bullied by her auntie for a long time, and now that the other party was willing to come to her door and let her clean up, how could she waste the other's sincerity?
"Today was really thanks to you, making me a fox pretending to be a tiger. I told you last time, don't call me Miss Gu, just call me Gu Mian." Gu Mian said with a smile to Yu Xiao.
Gu Mian's mother and grandfather knew that Gu Mian and Yu Xiao might have something to say, so the two of them tactfully went a little further away. Before leaving, her mother also took a few glances at Yu Xiao, with some small scrutiny in her eyes.
"It was me who forgot, I'll definitely pay attention next time. But being called a tiger by you is also an honor for me." Yu Xiao smiled and said.
"To be honest, I didn't think they would buy the Jade Sheep so decisively. I was just trying to provoke them a bit. That Mr. Cai seems to be your friend, did my actions put you in an awkward position?" Gu Mian looked at Yu Xiao with a hint of apology.
Just now she was only concerned with her own pleasure, and didn't think so much. Now thinking back, what she did seems to be a bit improper, but Yu Xiao's actions are also worth considering, as his words were all helping her speak, and there is suspicion that he hinted at the Cai family buying her jade sheep.
"I didn't do anything, I just bragged about that Han Dynasty jade sheep and Cai Cheng's son. Besides, antiques are worth whatever price you want to pay for them anyway. That Han Dynasty jade sheep is a good thing, looking at the way they spoil their kids, buying whatever they want, it doesn't seem like they're short of money either. Now he spent 800,000 yuan to buy it back, who knows, maybe in a year or two its value will double. Hehe, let's just wait and see." Yu Xiao laughed slyly.
Gu Menghan's face was covered in sweat, how could she have forgotten that Qin Sheng was such a sinister and cunning person? As one of Qin Sheng's good friends, Yu Xiao wouldn't be off somewhere being incompetent.
"By the way, I heard from Qin Sheng that you're going to join him on an inspection team for a private organization?" Yu Xiao's tone changed as she brought up Qin Sheng.
"Your message is really fast, I agreed, but there are still some things that haven't been done here, and their departure time hasn't been fixed yet." Gu Mian shrugged his shoulders, showing his helplessness at being unable to depart for a long time.
"This can only deceive the public, those who should know already do. In Shaanxi, a new archaeological site and tomb group have been discovered, and many people are watching with interest. Apart from the official investigation team, there are also private teams, as long as they don't steal artifacts like grave robbers or cause destruction without considering the consequences, generally speaking, as long as they bribe the right people, no one will bother them."
Yu Xiao's eyes flickered slightly, and she leaned in close to Gu Mei, lowering her voice: "Who knows, maybe we'll run into each other again sometime."
"Are you from the official inspection team?" Gu Mei looked at Yu Xiao in surprise.
Yu Xiao shook her head: "I'm not an expert in cultural relic appraisal, have you forgotten what I was doing when we first met?"
Gu Xiang suddenly realized that if Yu Xiao left, he would probably go to retrieve some cultural relics again.
However, this also made her a bit curious. Yu Xiao often carried out the task of retrieving cultural relics, and he would occasionally take some antiques to let her appraise them.
Could it be that the things Yu Xiao helped determine were actually part of the recovered cultural relics, but she secretly hid them away and kept them for herself?
But looking at Yu Xiao's appearance, he doesn't seem to be the kind of person who would embezzle money. If someone were to find out, he would definitely be the first one suspected, and I believe Yu Xiao wouldn't be so careless.
"Alright, it's getting late and I should get going. If I run into another acquaintance later, I'll probably be forced to drink again. I've already had a whole night of being forced to drink tonight, so that's not happening today." Yu Xiao rubbed her forehead and said to Gu Mian: "Let's plan to hang out together some other time."
"You go ahead if you have something to attend to." Gu Mian nodded.
Yu Xiao didn't say much, and with a wave of his hand, he went over to Cai Cheng, exchanged a greeting, and then left the wedding scene.
Just now, I've been busy for a while and chatted with Yu Xiao for a bit. I missed the ceremony of Gu Mei's wedding, but she didn't think it was a pity. She sat down and casually ate something, planning to leave with her mom and grandfather after the newlyweds came to toast.
Peng Jun and Qiu Yan started from the first table in front, toasting one by one, when they arrived at Gu Mian's table, almost everyone had finished eating.
Looking at Qiu Yan's beaming face, Gu Mei guessed that she probably still didn't know that her wealthy cousin had spent 800,000 yuan to buy the jade sheep for her, otherwise she wouldn't have smiled so brightly at her.
Er Biao also followed behind Peng Jun and Qiu Yan, she first glanced around Gu Mian with a hint of vigilance, and only relaxed a bit after finding no sign of Yu Xiao, but this time she learned her lesson and didn't go up to Gu Mian to say some irrelevant things.
Gu Mei originally wanted to take advantage of Er Niang's provocative behavior today, and thought about adding fuel to the fire when the newcomers toasted, but considering it was Peng Jun and Qiu Yan's big happy day, she didn't want to stir up trouble, so she gave up on that idea.
However, she wanted to let others off easy, but they might not be willing to let her off easy.
Qiu Yan came over to toast with a happy smile on her face, when she saw Gu Mian, she smiled and said some words of welcome, telling Gu Mian to eat well and have fun, then she started saying piercing words.
"Gu Mian, I'm really glad you could make it today. Fortunately, you're not married yet, so I still have the chance to give you a big red envelope later on. This restaurant is pretty good, although it's a bit pricey. But life is only once, and if you need anything in the future, just contact me and I'll get my cousin to hook you up with a discount - she knows the boss here really well." Qiu Yan said insincerely, patting Gu Mian's hand.
Gu Mei had already known about the last-minute cancellation of her wedding from her big-mouthed aunt, and it was clear that not everyone could climb high like her cousin. If she didn't carefully weigh her own worth, the result would be being kicked away by others.
Peng Jun is not particularly wealthy, but he is willing to work hard and is devoted to her, making him a good husband; at the very least, he would never dare to back out of their wedding.
Thinking of this, Qiu Yan's smile on her face became even more radiant, and the look in her eyes towards Gu Mian was increasingly pitiful.
Gu Meng looked at Qiu Yan's gaze filled with boundless sympathy and almost threw up the overnight rice.
How about it, she thought of letting things slide, but someone wanted to catch up and find fault?
"Then I'll thank you first, by the way, your cousin is really generous, for the sake of the child, she spent twice the price to buy my jade sheep, but I didn't ask for too much, considering Auntie also likes that child, so I just rounded it off to 800,000. Ah, you two chose a great day for your wedding, if I hadn't come today, my jade sheep wouldn't have been able to sell at such a high price, you both are my lucky stars, I'll give you another big gift later." Gu Xiang said with a smile, holding onto Qiu Yan's hand.
"8 million?" Qiu Yan was somewhat stunned and couldn't understand what Gu Mei was saying.
"Yes, it's 800,000! And I mustn't forget to thank Auntie Er as well. If not for her, my little thing wouldn't have sold out so quickly." Gu Mian said with utmost sincerity to Qiu Yan.
Hmph, if you want to make her yield, you must first be prepared to be rejected to death!
