Rebirth in officialdom and rising to the top

Chapter 469 Appreciation Banquet

eight pm.

Qincheng Tianxia Hotel.

In the private room of Qingyun Hall.

Chen Wangyang was holding a glass of white wine and delivering a toast with great emotion:

"Thank you to all the respected leaders, elders, and friends for coming to this thank-you banquet hosted by Joey and me. Thank you for your continued care and help for Joey and me. I, Chen Wangyang, will bear this in mind. I will never repay anything in return, but I will do it first." Respectfully!"

As he spoke, Chen Wangyang raised his neck and drank a large glass of white wine in his hand!

Then Chen Wangyang poured a second glass of white wine:

"This second cup is to express my sincere apology to everyone on behalf of Joey and I. I believe everyone knows by now that due to some special reasons, Joey and I did not inform everyone today. I secretly filed a marriage certificate, so I punish myself with three drinks today!"

As he spoke, Chen Wangyang raised his neck again and drank all the white wine in the glass, and then drank the second and third glasses without stopping!

Joy Zhong, who was sitting next to him, had no intention of persuading him to drink slower. She just smiled with her lips pursed. It was obvious that she was not worried at all about Chen Wangyang's drinking...

However, Chen Wangyang's bold move did not arouse everyone's applause. Ma Yuncong was the first to jump out and shouted angrily:

"Who here doesn't know that you, Brother Yang, can never get drunk after a thousand drinks? For you, Brother Yang, to be fined with alcohol means that you have no sincerity at all! Is that right, everyone?"

Grandma Ren Guihua, the oldest and most mature grandmother at the scene, was actually the first person to respond to Ma Yuncong:

"The boy from the Ma family is right. Wang Yang, you brat, you kept such a big thing like your marriage in the dark even as a grandma like me. It's so damn tight! You want to get rid of us after just a few glasses of wine? There's no way. !”

Grandma had spoken, and Chen Wangyang immediately turned into a bitter face:

Well, he can't survive now. No matter how awesome he is, he won't dare to argue with his grandma...

Zhong Joey on the side saw that his lover was deflated, and he quickly took the arm of Ren Guihua who looked angry and started to act coquettishly:

"Grandma, please don't be angry with Wang Yang. It's all because of my mental illness that he did this. If you want to blame, just blame me!"

Ren Guihua's angry look was just an act. As soon as Zhong Joey, the granddaughter-in-law, acted coquettishly, she couldn't pretend anymore. She patted Zhong Joey's hand and said with a comforting smile:

"Oh, my granddaughter-in-law is still sweet-tongued and can talk. Grandma is not angry, she is not angry!"

With that said, Ren Guihua took off an old-looking jade bracelet from her wrist and put it on Zhong Joey's wrist without any explanation:

"Joy, even though this jade bracelet looks inconspicuous, it is a family heirloom passed down by the old Chen family ancestors, and it is genuine Hetian jade!"

As soon as he heard that it was a family heirloom, Zhong Joey subconsciously wanted to refuse, but before he could say the rejection, he was interrupted by Ren Guihua:

"Wear it, don't take it off! If you accept it, grandma will promise you not to cause trouble to that brat Wang Yang!"

Ren Guihua, who had fought horse bandits and reactionaries with two guns in her early years, had an irresistible majesty about her. Zhong Joey was instantly convinced:

"Okay then, thank you grandma!"

With that said, Joey Zhong took off a crystal clear, green emerald ring from his right index finger, took Ren Guihua's right hand and put it on Ren Guihua:

"Grandma, this is a meeting gift I gave you. You are not allowed to pick it off~ Otherwise you just don't like me!"

Ren Guihua has also seen the world, and she can tell at a glance that the value of this emerald ring is at least hundreds of times that of her jade bracelet!

According to Ren Guihua's temper, it was impossible for her to accept it, but Zhong Joey's words forced her to accept it. In the end, she could only shake her head helplessly, patted the back of Zhong Joey's hand, and said lovingly:

"Okay, okay, grandma accepted my granddaughter-in-law's meeting gift, but this gift is too expensive. You are not allowed to give it to grandma again in the future!"

But Joey Zhong smiled and played a word game with Ren Guihua in a naughty way:

"Okay, I promise I won't send you wrenches again in the future!"

How could Ren Guihua not hear that Zhong Joey meant to say goodbye without giving him a thumb ring?

But she couldn't bear to continue to embarrass her lovely grandson-in-law, so in the end she had no choice but to shake her head:

"You, I think, are just like that brat Wang Yang, you are careless!"

Joey Zhong didn't say anything, just laughed.

At this time, Chen Wangyang’s mother Yang Caixia also came out to join in the fun, pretending to be aggrieved and said:

"Mom, since it is a family heirloom, shouldn't it be passed down from generation to generation? Why did you skip me, your daughter-in-law?"

Ren Guihua knew that her eldest daughter-in-law was joking, and she laughed when she heard this:

"Anyway, I've already given the bracelet to Joey. If you, an old woman, are so kind, just leave it to Joey!"

As soon as Zhong Joey heard this, he quickly pulled down the bracelet, but before he could pull it off, Yang Caixia held him down:

"Joy, what are you doing? Auntie, I was just joking!"

Saying that, Yang Caixia took out a ring box from her bag and forced it into Zhong Joey's hand:

"This is a gold ring that your uncle and I spent half a year's salary on when we first got married. Auntie, I have never been willing to wear it. Although it's not worth much, it's my sincere wish, Joey. If you don't mind, just accept it. Get off!"

In fact, with the current financial resources of the Chen family, Yang Caixia could buy a more expensive gift for Joey Zhong. However, she knew that Joey was the daughter of the richest man in Qin Province. What kind of expensive gift had she not seen before?

Even if the Chen family spends all their money, the gifts they buy will probably be junk that Joey usually doesn't like. Instead of doing that, they might as well give some commemorative gifts to the Chen family!

As the saying goes, sending goose feathers thousands of miles away is more important than courtesy!

Sure enough, when Joey Zhong heard about the origin of this ring, she immediately became very happy. At that time, she took off the Cartier diamond ring on her right middle finger and replaced it with the gold ring given to her by Yang Caixia:

"Thank you...thank you, Mom! I like it very much!"

After saying this, Joey Zhong's eyes turned red, obviously thinking of her mother who had died many years ago...

When Joey Zhong called her "Mom", Yang Caixia almost shed tears. Knowing that Joey Zhong had lacked maternal care since childhood, she hugged him into her arms, patted Joey Zhong on the back and comforted her softly. stand up……

Seeing the sad and heartwarming scene in front of him, Zhong Zihua also had sore eyes and wiped away tears. Seeing this, Chen Xianxian quickly took a glass of wine and touched it with him, smiling and saying:

"Father-in-law, my worthless son deceived your daughter into my household registration book without even saying hello or paying for the bride price. Are you not angry at all?"
