Chapter 1386: Chapter 1386: Mother-in-law’s protection

Hearing this, the president nodded his head in satisfaction. “This is indeed the most important matter. Then, I won’t keep you guys here tonight. Let’s do it another day.”
Lin Wanwan was relieved and quickly nodded.
Before leaving, the president took out a brocade box from the drawer and stuffed it into Lin Wanwan’s hand. “This is a welcome gift.”
“Thank you, Grandpa.”
She accepted it without any pretense. The smile on the president’s lips deepened.
There were not many girls who were so patient and had a personality that suited his heart.
The Birthday Banquet was placed next to the banquet hall. From Afar, there were about ten tables.
Thanks to Lu Zhanbei, Lin Wanwan was fortunate enough to sit at the same table with the president. This table was basically filled with core members of the Fu family. Fu Zhaoning’s family was also present.
The president was a very amiable old man in private. He casually said a few words and announced the start of the banquet.
The head chef in charge of the birthday banquet was Ai Ying. It could be seen that she was very diligent. She made every dish like a work of art, and they all had an auspicious name.
“This mushroom-scented beef tastes good,”Fu Zhaoning praised. Then, she looked at the president in a flattering manner. “Uncle, your birthday banquet is almost up to the standards of the state banquet. We are really lucky today.”
The others echoed him one after another.
“Then, everyone, please eat more.”
Fu Zhaoning responded with a smile. His malicious gaze fell on Fu Wanyi, who was quietly eating.
“Uncle is getting old. Naturally, your birthday should be grand. But cousin, as the next candidate, you should take good care of your feathers. If you leave a reputation for being extravagant, it will definitely affect your future.”
Fu Wanyi didn’t say anything. The others didn’t say anything either.
This time, Fu Zhaoning was a little embarrassed.
She looked around and saw that no one was looking at her. It was as if they treated her like air. She secretly gritted her teeth, but she had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue.
“Sister, I’m concerned about you. As your future daughter-in-law, Lin Wanwan is dressed so luxuriously. If word gets out…”
Everyone subconsciously looked at Lin Wanwan.
It was indeed very luxurious.
The dress was decorated with all kinds of gemstones of different sizes. Under the light, they reflected a bright luster and were exceptionally dazzling.
Lin Wanwan put down the chopsticks in her hands and looked at Fu Zhaoning with a smile that was not a smile.
This woman was really endless!
“Aunty, do you think I’m dressed beautifully today?”
Fu Wanyi met her smiling gaze. “Pretty.”
“Do you like it then?”
“I do.”
“That’s right.”
When Lin Wanwan smiled, she always gave people a feeling that she was easy to bully. It formed a strong contrast with her sharp words.
“I’m dressed comfortably, and my mother-in-law likes it. It’s not like my husband can’t afford it. Why should I put myself through this? Only those women who don’t attract mother-in-law’s liking and whose husbands aren’t capable will not eat grapes and dislike sour grapes. This is called Naked Jealousy!”
Lin Wanwan’s words hit Fu Zhaoning’s sore spot.
She wanted to refute but didn’t know what to say. She could only put on a “I, as an elder, can’t be bothered with you”look and secretly glared at Xia Xin ‘Er.
Xia Xin ‘er looked at Lin Wanwan with a hint of jealousy in her eyes, “Miss Lin, what you said is wrong. A small family is different from a real aristocratic family. You think it’s nothing, but you don’t know that doing so will attract rumors and drag down your aunt.”
Fu zhaoning said hypocritically, “SIS, I really need to carefully consider the candidate for my daughter-in-law.”
If she didn’t live well, Fu Wanyi wouldn’t be able to get what she wanted!
