Tang Zheng reacted and patted him on the back: "I'm not wronged."

Xiao Beiqi was stunned for a moment, and Tang Zheng explained with a smile: "Really, I am very satisfied to be with you, and to be recognized by the head of the Ming family."

"But they..."

Tang Zheng interrupted him: "They are just jealous of our good life, so let them be jealous. It doesn't matter if they say a few harsh words. As long as we don't take it to heart, it's fine."

Normally, if someone said such harsh words, Tang Zheng would definitely fight back. Why did she choose to remain silent this time? Because she knew that once she refuted, more people would blame her.

Accusing her of being of low status, accusing her of being impolite, accusing her of being disrespectful to elders, and even saying that it was wrong for her to take a breath.

What others think of her is their business. She should just live her own life well.

"Are you really not angry?"

Xiao Beiqi held Tang Zheng's face with his rough hands to confirm again and again.

Tang Zheng shook his head: "I'm not angry."

Xiao Beiqi: "Not aggrieved?"

Tang Zheng: "I don't feel wronged."

Xiao Beiqi: "Let's eat then."

Tang Zheng pulled Xiao Beiqi downstairs. Mu Ran and Lao Jin were sitting awkwardly at the dinner table, staring at each other.

They thought the two were having a quarrel, but when they saw them coming down hand in hand, Mu Ran and Lao Jin both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why isn't Leng Mo here?"

Tang Zheng then remembered that there was one person missing at the dinner table.

Xiao Beiqi looked at his watch and said, "It will be soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open and Leng Mo came in from outside pushing a huge cart.

Tang Zheng was so happy when he saw this: "These are all the gifts I received!"

Xiao Beiqi said, "Let's open it after dinner."

Tang Zheng nodded and invited Leng Mo to eat.

Leng Mo sat down and suddenly laughed.

"what happened?"

Given Leng Mo's personality, he usually has a serious face, so if he could laugh out loud, something must have happened.

Leng Mo said, "You packed up the food for Mr. Ming Ba's table, and the others at the table were very dissatisfied. Someone said something to Mr. Ming Ba, and the two of them started arguing and then fighting."

Tang Zheng was immediately happy when he heard this: "And then?"

"The head of the Ming family knew about this matter. It means that Master Ba is old, so he should hand over the work to the young people and enjoy his retirement at home."

Tang Zheng asked Xiao Beiqi curiously: "What does that Eighth Grandpa usually do?"

Xiao Beiqi: "Managed several factories and three companies."

Tang Zheng was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Mr. Ming Ba had such a skill.

Tang Zheng suddenly remembered something: "Um, is Mingliang, the man Wei Xiaoxiao is going to marry, the grandson of Master Ming Ba?"

Leng Mo nodded: "Yes, apart from Captain Xiao, the one who has the best chance of inheriting the Ming family's assets is the grandson of Master Ming Ba."

He only said there was an opportunity, not the ability. If you want to know where the opportunity came from, of course it was because Mr. Ming Ba had the ability.

But he didn't expect that because of a meal, Mr. Ming Ba would lose all his power. He must be regretting it now.

Ever since the head of the Ming family established his empire, the Ming family has never been divided, so everything about the Ming family is still decided by the head of the Ming family.

Over the past few decades, although Mr. Ming Ba has not devoted his life to the Ming family's business, his contributions have outweighed his faults. He must be unwilling to accept such a result in the end.

"Let's eat first."

Tang Zheng said as he picked up a piece of braised pork ribs for Xiao Beiqi: "Eat more. You've lost weight in two months."

Mu Ran took a bite of the dish and said with emotion, "This is my first time eating at a banquet hosted by the richest man in Beijing. It tastes really good. Life is good for the rich."

Tang Zheng took a bite of the dish, then said, "Then you guys work hard, we'll have such a feast often."

Everyone started to eat, and no one complained that the food was packed up by Tang Zheng in plastic.

Halfway through the meal, a car horn suddenly sounded outside. Leng Mo got up to open the door. As soon as the door opened, Wei Xiaoxiao rushed in with an angry look on her face.

"Sister, even if you want to make things difficult for me, you can't target my father-in-law, right?"

Tang Zheng blinked his eyes, and it took him a long time to react: "You haven't even married yet, and you turned against me for someone else?"

"Xiaoxiao, how can you talk like that!"

At this time, Ms. Wei came in hurriedly from outside.

Her eyes fell on the huge dining table, and her expression looked unhappy as she looked at the food she had packed up.

She forced a smile on her face and said to Xiao Beiqi: "Well, son-in-law, this is just a misunderstanding, don't take it to heart."

Xiao Beiqi looked normal, but he asked Tang Zheng curiously, "Isn't my mother-in-law in the countryside?"

Tang Zheng nodded: "Yes."

Xiao Beiqi: "Then why does this guy call me son-in-law?"

Ms. Wei was instantly embarrassed: "Son-in-law, Canyang is my biological daughter, so of course you are my son-in-law. You can't be unaware of this."

Xiao Beiqi: "I really don't know."

Just as Ms. Wei was about to speak, Xiao Beiqi asked, "What's the matter with you?"

Ms. Wei opened her mouth, looking embarrassed.

After saying so much, how could Xiao Beiqi not know why she and Wei Xiaoxiao came here?

Wei Xiaoxiao stamped her feet in anger: "Sister, this is how you entertain your relatives. We have been here for such a long time, and we haven't even sipped a mouthful of water. What kind of attitude is this, brother-in-law!"

Tang Zheng took a sip of water, then said, "Don't try to get close to me. I don't owe you anything, and I'm not familiar with you."

Wei Xiaoxiao was so angry that she hugged Ms. Wei's arm and shook it hard: "Mom, look, this is your biological daughter, she is worse than a stranger!"

Ms. Wei glared at Wei Xiaoxiao fiercely. What was the purpose of their visit? Have they forgotten it so quickly?

Wei Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered and lowered her head in panic.

Xiao Beiqi didn't even glance at the mother and daughter. He lowered his head and carefully picked out the fish bones for Tang Zheng.

Something flashed in Ms. Wei's eyes, and then she said, "Hey, Canyang, tell me what you want to eat, and I'll call the hotel to have it delivered. Why are you packing up other people's leftovers? How unhygienic is that?"

Tang Zheng glanced at Ms. Wei and said, "As long as you have enough to eat, it's fine. What's the point of talking about whether it's clean or not? I couldn't walk steadily at first, and I was almost eaten by wild wolves in the ravines. Now that I can eat and drink, there's no need to ask for so much."

Even though Tang Zheng said so much, Ms. Wei deliberately did not mention the past.

"Well, then you can do it. How can you let your son-in-law eat these? I will call the hotel and ask them to send a table of fresh meals."

"Don't say these useless things. If there is nothing else, I won't send it."

Ms. Wei finally couldn't hold back her smile: "Well, you and Mr. Ming Ba are blood relatives after all. He said something he shouldn't have said, and it was his fault. But the head of the Ming family asked him to hand over his work and go home to retire, which is a bit serious..."

Before she finished speaking, Xiao Beiqi interrupted her directly: "Since you think it's serious, you should go and tell the head of the Ming family."
