Chapter 469: Invitation
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Jianguo and his wife announced to the public that they would hold an organic vegetable-tasting banquet in the Gu family.
As soon as this news was released, there was a heated discussion among the upper echelons of Sea City.
Although it could be said that there would be banquets in various names, it was really the first time to hold an organic vegetable banquet. Many people were talking about it.
Some people were surprised, some were disdainful, and some were indifferent.
The Gu family was a reputable family in Sea City. They rarely held banquets and cocktail parties. They were considered a relatively low-key family.
However, whenever the Gu family held a banquet or cocktail party, those who received the invitation would basically attend.
Gu Jianguo also sent out some invitations to the Gu family’s organic vegetable banquet.
These invited guests were all carefully selected by the couple.
“Gu Jianguo and his wife aren’t afraid of losing face!” Looking at the invitation letter in his hand, Huang Youlin said with a disdainful expression, “A rich young lady and the heir of a big company actually went to the countryside to farm. Hehe, they are really not afraid of humiliating themselves.”
Madam Huang, who was standing at the side, also had a disdainful expression. She said proudly, “Hehe, so what if the Gu family has a big business? Not only do they not have a son, but the designated heir of the family is also so disappointing. She has become the joke of the entire Hai Cheng.”
“I heard that Gu Qingming ran to the countryside to give birth. Calculating the time, the child should be half a year old. Gu Jianguo and his wife are really shameless to actually hold a banquet. If they want to hold a banquet, so be it. If they do it seriously, everyone will probably attend on account of the Gu family.”
“On the other hand, they set up a taste test for the vegetables that Gu Qingming had grown in the countryside, making it seem like everyone was fighting to buy their vegetables. They didn’t even take a look and see if anyone would buy them. If they didn’t buy them, it would be really embarrassing.”
Hearing Madam Huang’s words, Huang Youlin frowned slightly and said with some doubt, “But recently, there have been rumors in the circle that the Gu family’s vegetables taste amazing and are incomparably delicious. 1 heard that Ren Tianyi’s youngest son has anorexia. It was cured by the organic vegetables given out by the Gu family.”
Madam Huang said disapprovingly, “Hehe, that’s just what everyone says. They’re just flattering the Gu family. After all, it was too difficult to please the Gu family in the past. Now that they have this opportunity, those who want to curry favor with the Gu family are rushing to curry favor with them.
Moreover, in the entire upper-class world, who doesn’t know that the Ren family and the Gu family have a good relationship? How did the entire upper-class world know that the Gu family sent some vegetables to the Ren family? This was definitely spread by someone with ulterior motives. Their goal is to promote the vegetables Gu Qingming made so that everyone can buy them. I think the Gu family held this vegetable banquet to use their reputation to sell their vegetables.”
At this point, Madam Huang paused for a moment and revealed a mocking smile. “Hmph, the Gu family really put in a lot of effort to save Gu Qingming’s reputation.”
Huang Youlin frowned and threw the invitation letter in his hand to the side. He said coldly, “Then we won’t go to this banquet.”
Madam Huang rolled her eyes and said, “If we don’t go, we’ll probably offend the Gu family.”
Huang Youlin thought for a moment and said, “Hmph, it’s not a big banquet. How many people will go?”
Madam Huang thought for a moment and said, “Hubby, I think we should contact our business friends and ask..”
