Chapter 125: Asking her to give way to Qiao Weiwei
Xie Qingyi's eyes widened, and she said angrily, "Shut up."
Jiang Qianhui ignored her completely and continued, "It just so happened that your father made his first fortune at that time, so you weren't sent to an orphanage. Later, your father's business grew bigger and bigger, and he also had a son. But the idea of favoring sons over daughters was ingrained in his bones, and you must have suffered a lot of grievances since you were a child."
You yourself lived under the shadow of son preference, yet now you expect others to live like your father, a truly horrible figure. You gave birth to two sons; you're so capable. Can't you shine your own light instead of blowing out others' candles? You've been soaked in the rain yourself, yet you still tear apart others' umbrellas.
Xie Qingyi was furious when Jiang Qianhui exposed her embarrassing secret in public. She was the wife of the Zhan family, and everyone only remembered her prominent status and that her father was once a steel tycoon in the country. Her Xie family was also once a prominent family, but the history before her father became rich was rarely mentioned. Now, however, Jiang Qianhui had exposed it in public.
The onlookers immediately erupted in uproar.
"I never imagined that Madam Zhan was so pitiful before. The feudal ideology of valuing sons over daughters is indeed quite torturous."
"Her own mother had five daughters before she had one son, and that son was also very difficult to conceive. It's truly a blessing from heaven that she had two sons. Since she has such great fortune, why is she criticizing others?"
"That's right, whether you have a boy or a girl is not something you can control, it's not like buying vegetables at the market."
"Mr. Jiang treats Mrs. Jiang so well, but Mr. Jiang himself doesn't even care. He deliberately said those things to disgust others. He has no morals at all."
Hearing the whispers around her, Xie Qingyi was absolutely furious.
When Yan Lan saw Xie Qingyi being humiliated, she tried her best to suppress her secret joy.
Xie Qingyi, this arrogant and domineering old woman, deserves to be humiliated in public one day as well.
She was too busy secretly laughing to stand up for Xie Qingyi.
Qiao Weiwei deliberately pretended to be righteous and said to Jiang Qianhui, "President Jiang, how could you talk about Madam Zhan's shameful past in public? How can Madam Zhan stand in high society like this? Even if you are protecting your own mother, you can't treat your mother-in-law like this."
Jiang Qianhui sneered, "Who are you? Today is my mother's birthday banquet, the wife of the president of the Jiang Group. Only those with invitations are allowed in. Which rich lady brought you in as her dog? Since you've followed me in, shut up. Do you want everyone to see that a dog has sneaked in with someone?"
Qiao Weiwei was furious; how dare they humiliate her like that?
Xie Qingyi was furious, but as if she suddenly remembered something, the anger on her face subsided considerably, replaced by smugness.
“Jiang Qianhui, how could Qiao Weiwei be a dog? From now on, you must treat her with utmost respect. After all, she is your great benefactor and the great benefactor of our Zhan family.”
Xie Qingyi's words immediately piqued everyone's interest. Who was that woman? What kind of important person was she?
He's supposed to be Jiang Qianhui's great benefactor, and the Zhan family's great benefactor, yet I haven't heard of anything happening to the Zhan family.
Upon hearing this, Yang Huirong immediately understood what Xie Qingyi meant. It seemed that she was planning to find this woman to be a surrogate. Not only did she want to find her to be a surrogate, but she also brought her along and even attended her birthday banquet openly. What did she mean by this? Was she here to show off to her?
Yang Huirong was very angry, but at this moment she did not want her daughter to lose face.
"Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend my birthday dinner. I've prepared delicious food and drinks for you all, and I hope you have a great time."
Yang Huirong didn't want to continue entangled with Xie Qingyi, after all, she knew that continuing the entanglement would not do her daughter any good.
Xie Qingyi saw that Yang Huirong wanted to change the subject, but she wouldn't let her.
“Speaking of the meritorious people of the Zhan family, it’s not just Qiao Weiwei who’s next to me, but also my eldest daughter-in-law Yan Lan. As soon as she married into our Zhan family, she gave birth to a grandson for me and helped our family prosper. She is the greatest contributor to our Zhan family.”
Xie Qingyi's words sparked a lot of speculation among the crowd. Could it be that Qiao Weiwei was also a contributor to the Zhan family's grandson?
At this moment, someone suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "It seems that President Zhan took this woman to the jade auction before."
"Is this woman President Zhan's secretary? Do they have some unusual relationship?"
"Miss Jiang has been married for two years but hasn't had a child yet. Is there something wrong with her health and she needs someone to take her place? This Qiao Weiwei is the perfect candidate."
"It's one thing to do the work for someone else, but to do it so blatantly is just too much. If you weren't born into a wealthy family, you really wouldn't be able to stand on your own two feet."
Seeing their daughter being criticized, Yang Huirong and Jiang Zhengguo couldn't sit still any longer, but Jiang Qianhui calmly stopped them.
She looked at Xie Qingyi and said with a calm smile, "Mother-in-law, have you mistaken the occasion? Today is my mother's birthday banquet. If you want to commend these two meritorious members of the Zhan family, I suggest you hold another commendation ceremony. You can choose the location, and I will cover the expenses."
Jiang Qianhui appeared composed and showed no signs of being hurt.
"Just now I was wondering if Qiao Weiwei had some kind of relationship with Zhan Yanxun? But Miss Jiang's attitude is so tolerant and generous."
"Yes, if this were Zhan Yanxun's mistress, they would be fighting right now. But looking at Miss Jiang's poise and calm demeanor, it shouldn't be like that."
Xie Qingyi was furious. How come Jiang Qianhui still seemed indifferent and unaffected at all?
Jiang Qianhui looked at the furious Xie Qingyi, her lips slightly curved, her eyes cool, and said politely, "Mother-in-law, you must be tired after talking for so long. Please take your Zhan family heroes and sit down to rest. We've arranged the main table for you."
Jiang Qianhui suddenly pretended to be troubled and said, "But you brought two meritorious members of the Zhan family, and only one seat has been arranged for you at the main table."
Jiang Qianhui looked at Qiao Weiwei and said, "Go to the back and do it. The people in front are all important and respected. It would be an insult to the guests at any table if someone like you, who has no reputation or status, were seated there. Just find a place to stand."
Those around her were amazed by Miss Jiang's powerful aura and her ability to handle things. Indeed, she had no status in high society, and it was an insult to sit at the same table with her.
Xie Qingyi said authoritatively, "Jiang Qianhui, she is someone I brought in, so naturally she will be staying with me. If there is a shortage of seats, you can simply not sit there; the host always gives way to the guest."
