Since the opening of the Oriental Hotel, there had been business almost every day. Probably because of its location, service, and reputation, it was one of the top hotels in Harbor City. The morning of the 18th was full of sunshine, which dispelled the thick chill.

Today, Xiao Hongwei was holding a banquet here, so the hotel manager personally asked about the details. He wanted to leave a good impression so that he could at least have a conversation with him when they met in the future.

At the main entrance, there was already a bright banner.

“Happy 20th birthday, Xiao Hongwei and Lu Yuqing’s beloved daughter, Xiao rongyu!”

This was the custom of Northern Jiangsu. The age of 20 was a very important day, second only to marriage, funeral, and marriage.

At around 9 O ‘clock, a group of people appeared at the entrance of the hotel one after another. Some were old ladies in gray and white cotton-padded jackets, some were women carrying children, some were old men smoking cigarettes, and of course, there were also young people wearing thin leather jackets in the cold weather.

They shook hands and greeted each other from afar.

These were all Xiao Hongwei’s relatives. Although old Xiao and Lu Yuqing’s families were very well-to-do, some of their relatives were just very simple farmers. However, they were very enthusiastic. When they heard that their juniors or cousins were over 20 years old, they took a bus to the city very early.

In fact, rural people valued etiquette more, and their sense of family was deeper.

After 9:30, another group of relatives came.

Most of them drove over, and they looked like middle-aged couples with successful careers. Their children were dressed neatly, and the cigarettes they took out were all more than 20 Yuan, and some were even Zhonghua cigarettes.

In fact, it was very strange. They were all relatives, but the rich relatives would go to Xiao Hongwei’s house first, as if they were showing off.For those who were more average, everyone arrived at the hotel first.

This was also a very interesting reflection of the local society.

At around 10 O ‘clock, old Xiao’s family also came over. Because of the continuous visits from relatives, it took a long time.

Old Xiao was a big Shot in a small city like Harbor City, so even if some relatives waited for an hour, they wouldn’t be angry. Especially the hotel manager, who kept asking the waiters to serve tea.

sorry, sorry, we’re late, ” old Xiao apologized after he got out of the car.

“I’m fine, cousin. Where’s my niece?”

“It’s not too late, it’s only 10 O ‘clock.”

“Yeah, we just arrived.”

His relatives consoled him considerately. Xiao Hongwei took out Zhonghua cigarette from his pocket and started to smoke. At this time, Xiao rongyu’s grandmother, mother, and herself all got out of the car.

Grandma was wearing a red cotton-padded jacket with pearls embellished on the sleeves, which made her look very festive.

Her mother was wearing a coffee-colored woolen trench coat, which made her look even more luxurious.

Xiao rongyu was wearing a pink down jacket with a bit of light makeup on. Her exquisite oval face was as clear as Jade, and her curled eyelashes fluttered. Her mouth was pink and lustrous, and her signature ponytail swayed with her body, showing the liveliness and youth of a 20-year-old.

The relatives laughed and surrounded him.

“Second grandma, you’re celebrating your birthday,”

sister-in-law, your trench coat looks really nice.

little Yu ‘er is already 20 years old. You’ll always be so beautiful.

Next, Xiao Hongwei brought Xiao rongyu to greet their relatives.

Because she didn’t have much contact with some of her relatives, and because she was in school, she might not have seen them much. However, since they were attending the banquet, she had to greet them politely.

Xiao Yu ‘er had a sharp tongue and a sweet voice. In addition, her family was good. Many elders wanted to give her red packets, but Lu Yuqing quickly stopped them. It had been more than a month since the Spring Festival. How could she still accept red packets?

The older brothers in their 20s even responded in a daze when they saw how beautiful their sister was.

Before she could even finish her greetings, a large group of children had already followed behind her. They were all primary school students and kindergarten students. When they saw that their sister was beautiful, they all wrapped themselves around her legs and looked up at Xiao rongyu.

The hotel manager knew that Xiao Hongwei had arrived, so he quickly came out of the hall to greet him. He took out the 95th Supreme sword and said respectfully,”There’s quite a lot of people today.”

“Yes.”

Xiao Hongwei was a little dizzy from all the work, so he quickly asked,”Everything’s been arranged, right?”

“It’s done,”

“There won’t be any problems,” the hotel manager promised, patting his chest.

Xiao Hongwei was relieved and took the initiative to shake hands with the hotel manager.”Then I’ll leave it to you.”

“Oh, that’s right.”

Old Xiao took out another red packet from his pocket. “This is for the emcee, please help me pass on the message.”
