Chapter 296 Goodbye Meng Family
Chapter 296 Goodbye Meng Family
Ouyang Kong and Meng Ke's second child was born as everyone expected. Although she was not the niece Ouyang Qian wanted, he was also very happy.
Last time, Yangyang’s full moon banquet was missed because Meng Ke and Ouyang Kong were away on a military expedition. This time, the child’s parents were here, and Ouyang Qian was preparing to hold an unprecedented grand banquet.
One can imagine how extravagant a banquet like this would be if it was personally supervised by the young master of a top family.
Small families are not even qualified to be invited, and the noble families are proud to receive an invitation.
Meng Ke was in a dilemma. The banquet was too high-end and her nominal father thought the etiquette was too complicated and didn't want to go.
"I'll let Tiedan go in my place. He's your brother, and an elder brother is like a father. It doesn't matter if he goes or I go."
Meng Ke frowned: "Dad died and they said the eldest brother is like a father, but you are still alive and well."
"No matter! I'm not going anyway!"
Meng Ke was unhappy: "When the baby grows up, I will tell him that grandpa doesn't like him and even refuses to attend his full moon banquet."
"Hey! What's the way you talk, girl? Who said I hate my grandson?"
"Just one word, are you going or not?!"
"Go! I won't give you the chance to slander me!"
There were other friends as well, but Meng Ke thought it was too troublesome to invite them one by one, so she just invited everyone in.
When Gu Shuili saw this group, he was the first to speak: What is this for?
Meng Ke replied: "My son's uncle is holding a full-moon banquet for him. Who of you has time to come? I'll send the invitation to the group. Anyone who has time can come and pick it up."
I don’t know how many people have time, but Meng saw that there were 42 people in the group, so he uploaded 42 invitations.
As a result, Li Yilan shouted in the group: There are not enough invitations, send some more.
Meng Ke was puzzled: There are 42 people in the group including me. I sent 42 photos, so there should be one more.
Before Meng Ke checked the status of the invitations, Li Yilan tagged He Facai in the group: What does it mean that you received twenty invitations?
He Facai: There's nothing I can do! The invitation to the full moon banquet has been sold for 10 million yuan per accompanying guest. Faced with such a huge amount of money, I can't help but be tempted.
Meng Ke rubbed his forehead and wondered how he could have forgotten about this money-grubber who was always good at making trouble.
Meng Ke: Spit out the invitation letter immediately, otherwise I will invalidate all the invitation letters you have received.
He Facai: No! Do you know how poor we are now? We're just starting out, so we have to be frugal. Don't worry! All the money from the sales is public money.
Meng Ke: You are not allowed to sell my son’s full moon party invitation!!!
Three exclamation marks show how angry Meng Ke is.
But it was obvious that someone missed the point. Gu Shuili asked Meng Ke curiously: Are you poor?
Before Meng Ke could say anything, He Fa Cai started crying poor: "Yeah! You don't know how much money it costs to develop planets. Now that we're in debt, of course we have to increase revenue and cut costs, don't you think?"
When Li Yu saw this, he couldn't help himself and quickly sent a message: I will lend you the money you owe without interest.
He Facai's eyes lit up and he said to Mengke: Why didn't you introduce such a rich friend to me earlier?
Then he tagged Li Yu and said: We owe hundreds of billions. How much can you help us solve?
Li Yu was quite generous: All of them can be solved without any problem, but you have to give me an invitation to the party first.
He Facai likes generous friends the most, so he immediately sent an invitation.
Wang Datong has returned to his home planet to take up his post. Without special circumstances, he will not be eligible to apply to enter the main planet, so he asked in the group: Where is the banquet venue?
Meng Ke: Dongxing.
Dongxing is the base camp of the Ouyang family. As long as the Ouyang family agrees, you can enter. Anyone who gets an invitation letter is equivalent to getting an admission ticket to Dongxing.
Meng Kecui He Fa Cai: Release the remaining invitations quickly.
He Fa Cai reluctantly kept two and gave away all the others.
Alas! No one can understand the pain of not being able to make money.
In the end, except for those who were on a mission and didn't see the message, everyone else in the group said they would be there.
Meng Ke was a little happy. She didn't expect that she was so popular.
Tiedan heard Meng Ke's boasting and couldn't help but criticize her: "They are all doing this for the sake of the Ouyang family, not you! Don't be so self-indulgent."
Meng Ke's face fell on the spot, and she felt that she couldn't keep this cheap guy anymore.
The banquet was held as scheduled. Meng Ke didn't expect to receive a gift from the Mechanical Kingdom. She thought it was sent by Duoduo's friend, but it turned out that the other party's signature was the owner of the flower and bird market, and the robot who sent the gift was also very familiar, it was Yuanyuan.
Meng Ke enthusiastically took Yuanyuan's hand and led them to the front row to sit down, then asked someone to prepare a top-notch meal for it that was edible for robots. Yuanyuan was as happy as a child, and he started to sell out his master with a lot of chatter.
What about the master being a fanboy of Meng Ke, being too shy to come, and now being empathetic with him? All of it came out at once.
Meng Ke felt that the child might be beaten when he returned home, and she was a little worried.
So when Yuanyuan went back, Mengke prepared a lot of gifts for him and his master, and Yuanyuan jumped onto the roller coaster.
Meng Ke doesn’t have many friends, but he has many senior brothers, sisters, and uncles. After seeing them off, Meng Ke turned around and looked at the Meng family members waiting on the side.
To be honest, she really didn't know how to face this family.
He Facai took it upon himself to send the invitation to the Meng family. Meng Ke only found out about it after the banquet started. She couldn't kick the person out, but it was impossible for her to welcome him.
She could not forgive Meng Dongcheng for the harm he had done to her.
The head of the Meng family brought the four brothers Meng Shifeng over to say hello. Meng did not offend their face and both sides were polite to each other.
Meng Shifeng knew what his uncle had done and did not show any affection towards Meng Ke. However, Meng Shihe and the other two did not know what exactly had happened and just thought it was a family conflict.
Being able to attend the banquet this time, they thought the conflict was resolved, so they all looked at Meng Ke happily. Meng Shijin had grown up, and his lively personality was very likable. Meng Shiqi already looked like a teenager, and he happily held Meng Ke's hand and acted coquettishly. They were the closest before.
Meng Ke smoothed down the ahoge on his head and asked, "Xiaoqi, what are your plans for the future?"
"I want to apply to military school like my second brother, but my dad won't let me!"
Meng Shiqi pouted. When he was a child, he wanted to apply to military school and his father was very happy. But when he grew up, his father just didn't allow it. Meng Shiqi felt aggrieved when he thought about it.
Meng Ke realized after a moment's thought that this was because she was worried that after joining the army, she would be suppressed by her and her husband's families. Rather than being unable to make a name for herself and being excluded, it would be better for her to stay in the family business and make a difference.
Meng Shiqi looked at Meng Ke with admiration, truly treating her as her cousin. Meng Ke's heart softened, and she said, "Children have their own futures. Master Meng doesn't need to worry too much."
This means that the grudges of the previous generation will not be held accountable to the next generation. After hearing this, the head of the Meng family secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
This trip was not in vain. The head of the Meng family was very happy and left with his people.
From beginning to end, Meng Dongcheng didn't step forward to say a word, which was just right. If Meng Dongcheng were here, Meng Ke would definitely not be soft-hearted, and would not have a good attitude towards other people in the Meng family.
Turning around, she saw a man sneaking over. Meng Ke laughed, "What's up? Liang Fei, you came to the banquet today and you're planning to take some of the Ouyang family's food away."
Liang Fei rolled his eyes: "You are the originator of stealing vegetables, how dare you laugh at me."
"Then what were you looking around for?"
"My uncle asked me to introduce my cousin to you. I'm just here to give you a heads-up."
"Why? Is there something wrong with your cousin too?"
"That's not the case. He's the most promising one in our family. Why? You want to take a lover? I'll let him come over."
"What do you mean by taking a lover?"
Ouyang Kong came over and heard this, ha! The small Liang family dared to give his wife a man, it was really good!
