Chapter 281 - 281 Su Meng’s Embarrassment
Those people’s voices weren’t soft, so Su Meng and Wei Xue both heard it. Wei Xue looked at Su Meng proudly, thinking that she had finally won a round.
Su Meng didn’t care about the opinions of the people around her. She looked at Grandfather Wei and said slowly, “Grandpa, I wanted to send it to you off secretly after the birthday banquet, but now that so many people are curious, I’ll go and look for you. Please wait for a moment.
“Sister-in-law, are you going to prepare now? It’s fine if you don’t, Grandpa won’t blame you. If you insist on doing so, I can go over and help you.” Wei Xue said gloatingly.
She said that she would help Su Meng, but she didn’t even lift her butt. It seemed like she didn’t intend to move at all.
!!
Su Meng looked at Wei Xue and suddenly laughed. Then, without saying a word, she turned around and walked back to where she was at. She picked up her coat from the chair and took out a red sealed bag the size of her palm.
Everyone looked at Su Meng curiously, wanting to see what she was holding. However, when they saw that it was just a small bag, they instantly lost interest.
The bag was so small and thin that there was nothing valuable in it.
They did not expect Su Meng, as the Young Madam of the Wei family, to be so stingy. She did not even prepare a decent gift. It was too embarrassing.
Seeing this situation, the happiest person was Wei Xue. In her opinion, Su Meng was just trying anything in a hurry. She couldn’t find a gift from Wei Ting, so she simply took something as a gift.
Someone in the crowd said, “Miss Su, I know it’s impolite to say this, but I still want to ask, what’s in your bag? I wonder if we can take a look?”
The one who spoke was a young man who looked to be in his twenties. After he finished speaking, he even exchanged a glance with Wei Xue.
Su Meng immediately understood. It seemed like this person was with Wei Xue. There were some things that Wei Xue couldn’t say personally, so he was helping her.
Therefore, she smiled and replied, “I can do anything. However, this is a gift for Grandpa. It’s up to Grandpa whether he wants to show it to you or not.”
Su Meng came back and handed the bag to Grandfather Wei. ” Grandpa, happy birthday. I was in a hurry and couldn’t prepare a better gift, so I can only ask you to accept it. ”
Su Meng spoke humbly, as if the things inside were really worthless.
Grandfather Wei took it. From the feel of it, he also thought it was a small object.
However, he didn’t care about the value of the gift. He only cared about the thought, so he said with a smile, “As long as it’s a gift, I’ll like it. It’s all about the heart. There’s no such thing as a heart being noble or lowly.”
As he spoke, he slowly opened the sealed bag and took out the things inside.
When he took out the item, everyone present couldn’t help but take a deep breath, and then their faces showed disdain. Some people even laughed out loud.
Wei Xue looked at the things in Grandfather Wei’s hands and was so happy that she couldn’t hold them anymore. She asked with a smile, “Sister-in-law, if you have any difficulties, just tell me. I can also help you prepare a gift. Even if there’s no gift, Grandpa won’t say anything. But you can’t be so perfunctory with Grandpa.”
Su Meng didn’t say anything and didn’t look at her, so she continued, “Is it because you don’t have money? But that’s not right. Brother Wei Ting should give you pocket money every month. The children of the Wei family always have a lot of pocket money.”
“Unless Brother Wei Ting doesn’t want to give you money? But it doesn’t seem like it. He even personally prepared a gift for you this time.”
A girl not far from Wei Xue suddenly spoke up, “Isn’t that simple? Your sister-in-law must have spent all the pocket money your brother gave her, so she didn’t have the money to prepare a gift.”
Wei Xue bit her lip and pretended to speak up for Su Meng. ‘That’s impossible. My sister-in-law is not that kind of person. She… She may be a spendthrift, but she’ll never drop the ball at the critical moment.”
The girl sneered, “Isn’t this a critical moment? Isn’t this considered a failure? Elder Wei doted on her for nothing. I feel sorry for you.”
