Chapter 1565 Food Poisoning
Cheng Ying's eyes lit up when he heard this. Once this information was exposed, he would make a fortune!
"Are you serious about what you said? Is it all true?" Cheng Ying asked uncertainly.
Xu Jing raised his hand and swore, "Of course it's true. If even one word is false, I will be struck by lightning. Do you think Chu Man is some high and mighty eldest daughter of the Chu family? She has long been dirty and has been forced by others!"
Cheng Ying smiled so much that her lips almost opened wide. "Okay, okay, you can only give me the exclusive information and not tell anyone else! I will give you some money."
The engagement party scene.
The engagement party was successfully completed.
The guests all looked happy.
Although the Meng family is only a third-rate wealthy family, their marriage to the Pei family and becoming relatives of high-ranking officials will surely ensure smooth development in the future.
At the engagement party, many partners came to discuss cooperation with the Meng family.
Mother Meng was very happy and kept saying, "Jiayin is the lucky star of our family!"
But he is not a lucky star. Ever since Meng Zhidong met Pei Jiayin, he has become much more lively. He is no longer like before when he avoided women because of Shu Wen, nor is he like his marriage with Li Xiang, which was like a body without a soul.
In fact, Meng Zhidong had never figured out what he wanted. Since he met Pei Jiayin, he knew what he wanted.
I also understand that loving someone means you can't live without her.
Meng Xuanze and Meng Shubeiguo were also very happy. The brother and sister looked at Pei Jiayin and laughed from time to time, and then gathered together to talk in a low voice.
"Brother, I like my new mother, what about you?" Meng Shu Beiguo asked.
Meng Xuanze raised his eyebrows and said nothing, but an uncontrollable smile appeared at the corners of his lips.
He also likes his new mother very much.
Not delicate or pretentious, unlike Li Xiang who says one thing in front of others and another behind their backs.
They don't have high demands on their new mothers, and their biological mothers don't give them much maternal love and care. As long as the new mothers don't hate them, they don't hate their new mothers either.
Living in peace with each other is their greatest wish for the future.
Naturally, Mr. and Mrs. Shu were also very satisfied with Pei Jiayin.
He also gave Pei Jiayin a generous gift.
From a selfish point of view, they do not want Meng Zhidong to remarry so that he can focus on his two children.
Moreover, everything in the Shu family is now managed by Meng Zhidong. They want to pass everything in the Shu family to their two children in the future.
If Meng Zhidong remarries, it means he will have his own children.
That way there would be one more person to share the Meng family's property, and the two children's benefits from the Meng family would be taken away by someone else.
The night before Meng Zhidong and Pei Jiayin got engaged, the Shu and Meng families sat together for a family meeting.
Pei Jiayin was also present.
The Shu family’s parents’ meaning was very clear, they wanted to protect the interests of their two children.
He acted like a villain first and then a gentleman, and put the ugly words first, and immediately mentioned that Meng Zhidong and Pei Jiayin's children should not be deprived of the benefits they have obtained.
Because when the Meng family recognized Meng Xuanze, the two families signed an agreement that everything in the Meng family in the future would belong to Meng Xuanze.
At that time, Meng Zhidong had no plans to remarry or have more children, so he signed the contract.
The two elders of the Shu family thought that they would anger Pei Jiayin, because no woman was willing to be told before getting married that even if she had children in the future, she would not get the Meng family's property.
Li Xiang divorced Meng Zhidong because he could not get any benefits from the Meng family.
Of course, Meng's mother wanted to give all the Meng family's property to Pei Jiayin, but there was an agreement on this matter after all, and the two elders of the Shu family were unwilling to give in, so she couldn't get a say.
He is my grandson, and I cherish him dearly.
She was caught in the middle and was in a difficult position.
Pei Jiayin smiled. She was with Meng Zhidong not because she was attracted by the Meng family's background. She, Pei Jiayin, wanted to find a better and more outstanding man, and there were many men with good family backgrounds.
"My own child, I will earn an inheritance for him myself! Your inheritance is yours! I don't care!"
Pei Jiayin would not compete with the two children for the family property.
The two children's life experiences are pitiful enough.
She could also understand the Shu family's elders' painstaking efforts, they were just worried that their two children would suffer at home, and with the family property at their disposal, they would be more confident.
Seeing how magnanimous and considerate Pei Jiayin was, the Shu family's elders felt a little guilty.
After all, they are selfish.
Shu Wen gave birth to the child herself and Meng Zhidong was completely unaware of it. However, they used this incident to threaten Meng Zhidong's lifelong happiness, which was indeed a bit unkind.
Fortunately, Meng Zhidong met a good woman, otherwise he would have been alone for the rest of his life.
Therefore, the Shu family elders gave Pei Jiayin a generous gift for the engagement ceremony, and they did not feel sorry for the money at all.
Pei Jiayin was also happy.
Since she decided to be with Meng Zhidong, she naturally didn't want to have a bad relationship with the grandparents of her two children.
Although I don’t have the confidence to be a perfect stepmother, at least the family should be harmonious and there shouldn’t be conflicts and quarrels every other day.
She hates the trivialities of family life the most.
The banquet was coming to an end. Pei Jiayin saw that Ji Yunxi had not eaten much and asked, "What's wrong? Is the food not to your liking?"
"I always feel that the taste is weird!" Ji Yunxi was afraid that Pei Jiayin would think she was picky, so she quickly said, "It may be because of the pregnancy, my taste has become a little picky!"
Ji Yunxi only ate one shrimp during the whole meal and then nothing else.
Chu Manke picked up a piece of fried pork chop for her, "Nonsense, it's delicious! Even if you don't have an appetite, you still have a baby in your belly!"
Pei Jiayin took a bite of vegetables.
She hadn't eaten in the morning and had been busy all morning, so she was very hungry.
“I don’t think it tastes weird!”
They chose Michelin chefs to cook the food themselves, and the ingredients they use are the best and most high-end.
Even the water used for cooking is high-quality bottled water, not tap water.
Enning took a bite, but didn't notice anything wrong.
At this time, Meng's mother came over to entertain them.
She couldn't help but show some concern for Pei Jiayin. Knowing that Pei Jiayin's feet were rubbed by high heels, she handed her a tube of ointment.
"The effect is very good. It doesn't hurt after applying it." said Meng's mother.
"Thank you, Mom!" Pei Jiayin took the ointment, got up and went to the bathroom to apply it.
Enning pulled Meng Mu to sit next to him and pointed at the empty seat not far away, "Did you arrange this on purpose? Look, you've pissed people off!"
When Mother Meng saw that Nie Fan and Jiang Yimo were gone, she smiled and said, "I mean well."
En Ning couldn't help laughing, "Are you interested in Jiang Yimo from our company?"
Mother Meng nodded, "The girl is good, pretty and talented! They are a good match!"
En Ning didn't think so. "Our Yimo has a stubborn temper! I'm afraid she won't let you get what you want! She pursued Brother Zhidong before, so how could she be willing to be the future wife of Brother Zhidong's brother-in-law! Isn't this embarrassing for her?"
"Whether it succeeds or not is their business, but whether we can bring them together or not is my business!" Meng's mother laughed.
The elderly are retired and have a lot of free time, so they can't help but want to act as matchmakers and bring together couples.
At this time, someone held his stomach uncomfortably and rushed to the bathroom.
Immediately, someone else covered his stomach, one, two, three... more and more people felt uncomfortable.
Soon, the direction of the restroom was crowded with people, each with a painful expression.
Mother Meng stood up suddenly, her face changed drastically, "What happened?"
Someone woke up and shouted, "There's something wrong with the food! We have food poisoning!"
