The entertainment tycoon of the Republic of China

The maids led the wives to the small living room on the second floor, served good tea and pastries, and led the servants they brought to the next room to rest temporarily.

"The decoration of this Wen's house is really beautiful. It's completely different from those outside. It's almost all foreigners." There was a bit of stinginess, and it seemed that he was always trying to speak out, "I don't know what the sisters' homes are like, anyway, I have learned a lot today."

Mrs. An originally wanted to chat and get in touch with the wives around her, but after she finished speaking with a smile, she didn't get the support of the other three people in the room.

——They are all the wives of prestigious families. Although their family background is indeed inferior to that of Wen's family, how can they come to a family gathering for a small gathering? Before the owner comes, they just bluff and look like they have never seen the world ?

Mrs. An originally wanted to show her homely skills and control the right to speak, but unexpectedly she was self-defeating. Seeing that no one responded to her after she finished speaking, she smiled awkwardly, not knowing what she said was wrong.

In fact, it's no wonder that Mrs. An didn't understand that she was not in this circle in the first place.

Mrs. An's family was originally a small-scale coal seller, and the whole family was not worth five thousand silver dollars. On weekdays, they only came into contact with the neighbors and neighbors, so they could not reach the bottom line of socializing with the Wen family.

Until a few months ago, Master An’s cousin who was doing big business in Suzhou passed away due to illness. His wife died early and his only daughter was still studying abroad. Become a phoenix and become rich all of a sudden.

The rest of the wives have heard about Mrs. An's family, and they don't think much of his family's nouveau riche, and they are unwilling to talk to her. They don't even understand why Mrs. Wen invited Mrs. An today.

The only one who understood Mrs. Wen's thoughts was Mrs. Yu, who knew the undercurrents in the small living room like the back of her hand. She smiled gracefully, and instead of helping Mrs. An, she looked at the eldest maid of the Wen family by the door.

"Xilian, where is your wife?"

"Madam has a little matter, I'll be here soon, please calm down a few ladies, and have some snacks first, they are freshly prepared by the cook this morning."

Xi Lian clasped her hands on her waist, took two steps forward with a smile, and explained naturally and generously.

The guest has arrived but the host has disappeared. This is not the way of hospitality. However, the wives knew that Mrs. Wen was amazing, so they didn't say anything. They all nodded and said it was nothing. Only Mrs. An showed a little dissatisfaction on her face.

Although she has never been to such an occasion before, she still understands the basic rules. Why is Mrs. Wen so late, is she looking down on her?Now she is also a respectable wife of a rich family, she must not be underestimated by Mrs. Wen!

In fact, the reason why Mrs. Wen was late had nothing to do with Mrs. An. It was not a big deal to be late for such a small gathering. It was just that Mrs. An had ghosts in her heart, and she was so sensitive and suspicious when she knew that her fortune was not in the right place.

"A western cook came to our house a few days ago and he can make a new drink called hot chocolate tea. I asked the little girls to bring some for the wives. Let's try it first." Xi Lian didn't seem to notice Mrs. An's expression greeted her warmly.

……

In the small living room, the attention of the visiting wives was attracted by the new drink, and Mrs. An finally stopped paying attention to the fact that Mrs. Wen did not show up for the time being. At this time, Mrs. Wen was still perseveringly making love to her eldest son. "Struggle".

In the large study room on the first floor, in front of the display cabinet, Mrs. Wen was holding a two-meter-long soft cowhide whip in her hand, with one hand on her hip, as if she didn't want to go out unless the person in front of her gave an explanation.

"Rui'er, what were you thinking about those girls who showed you a few days ago? The family member of one of them is the guest here today, so I can decide my attitude if you give me an accurate answer."

Just now people came to report that several guests had already arrived in the small living room on the second floor. Mrs. Wen was in a hurry to go there, but finally blocked the eldest son.

"It's up to you." Wen Rui, who was blocked by his mother, still had that indifferent expression.

He still had something to do in the barracks, so he hurried home to pick up his things, but he was stopped by Mrs. Wen just as he entered the door.

"What are you talking about?" Mrs. Wen was angry. "Are you marrying a wife or me? You don't like it yourself. Get married and have a grandson with me?"

"..."

As expected of the heroine of the Wen family's powerful female middle school, she spoke differently.

Wen Rui was obviously choked by his mother's words, and his cold face showed a rare speechlessness. Wen Heng was not there, and no one could help him divert his attention. He knew that if he didn't give Mrs. Wen an explanation today, he probably wouldn't be able to get out. The door is closed.

"Mother, I haven't met those young ladies, and I don't know them well. If you really want to choose one of them to be my wife, it's better for you to make the decision after knowing it than me choosing blindly." .”

"..."

Mrs. Wen looked at the eldest son who was finally willing to talk more, and felt a sense of absurdity in her heart. Although Ruier spoke seriously and her logic seemed to be fine, why did she always feel that something was wrong?

"Rui'er, tell me the truth, you have never met a girl you like in all these years since you were young? At least tell me what kind of girl you like, so I can look for it accordingly."

Mrs. Wen originally thought that the second son liked men, and marriage would be more difficult, but according to the people who followed him yesterday, he obviously already had a goal, so he didn't have to worry about it; The look of not being interested in anything made Mrs. Wen grind her teeth in worry.

"..."

After Madam Wen asked these words, she stared at the elder son's face without moving, and suddenly noticed that the other's eyes moved slightly when she heard the girl she had a crush on.

There is no mother who knows a child, Mrs. Wen is so keen, she immediately realized that she had asked a question.

"Really? No, how could I not know that you have a familiar girl beside you? Could it be that I met you when you were studying abroad?" Mrs. Wen's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked.

"What kind of girl is she, what's her name? Where is her home? You didn't say it earlier, if it's suitable, my mother will help you propose a marriage, and you still have to work hard to find something." Mrs. Wen eagerly placed a long call, full of expectations Looking at Wen Rui anxiously, he planned to wait for the eldest son's answer.

However, Wen Rui came back to his senses from the past memories, and after realizing the flaws he had inadvertently exposed just now, his eyes darkened, and in the end he only shook his head slightly.

"Ruier?"

"Not suitable."

"What do you mean?"

"Married."

"..."

Mrs. Wen was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly realized that Wen Rui was not in a good mood at the moment. She opened her mouth, not knowing how to comfort her precocious son who never made people worry too much.

No wonder Rui'er has never been very concerned about the matter of getting married...

"Rui'er, you have to tell your mother what kind of girl you are?"

"She's a..." Wen Rui seemed to think for a long time, how to describe the person in his memory, but finally he only uttered four words, "Suzhou girl."
