Mi Na had also been to the Jiang family’s banquet last time. At that time, she was surprised by the Jiang family’s wealth. Their house was not the typical Western-style villa, but a Chinese-style garden that looked really expensive. The pavilions were very complete. Ignoring the cost of the land, just building such a garden would cost an amount that she could not even imagine.
Not only was the Bai family inferior, but even the Si family that she had looked up to before was far inferior. This was also the reason why Mi Na was jealous of Jiang An.
As the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, she didn’t lack anything. She could have anyone she wanted as her boyfriend, but she had to seduce Si Cheng.
Previously, she even caused a divorce. If it were her, she would definitely not do this. It was fine even if Si Cheng had an affair. Rich men were all like this. As the wife of the family, she could just pretend not to see it. Why did she have to make things so embarra.s.sing?
Mi Na was thinking about what she would do if she married Si Cheng. She would definitely do better than Jiang An.
She knew that Si Cheng was no longer the heir of the Si family, but this made her like him even more.
Because there was no difference between the two of them according to their status, there was no resistance for Si Cheng to marry her.
During this period of time, Mi Na had been trying to get close to Si Cheng. She used her family’s power and the Bai family’s name to help Si Cheng solve some small problems.
She thought that she had already done what a virtuous wife should do. Si Cheng would definitely look at her in a different light.
Si Cheng had indeed changed his opinion, but he had changed it from Mi Na being an unimportant person to a woman who threw herself at him.
Even if the Si family had gone bankrupt, the pride in Si Cheng’s heart was still there. He felt that he could make a comeback one day and shock everyone who looked down on him.
Therefore, his standards for his future wife became higher and higher. If he married a woman from an ordinary family, it meant that he had really accepted his fate.
In the past, his wife was the successor of the Jiang family. Now, even if she was not the successor of the corporation, she still had to be the daughter of a big family. Moreover, she had to be proficient in the four arts — music, chess, reading, drawing, and so on. She had to be even more knowledgeable than Bai Ting.
Mi Na’s family background was only slightly better than ordinary people. She didn’t even have any connections to the wealthy. Si Cheng wouldn’t take her seriously.
Not only Si Cheng, but even Zheng Wen thought so too. Every time Mina came to deliver something, she would not look good.
Mina was still immersed in the fantasy of marrying Si Cheng and treating Jiang An as her greatest enemy in her life. She felt that she had to avenge Si Cheng.
Mi Xue did not know that her aunt was thinking about this. The world of children was very simple. Moreover, Mi Xue had grown up by her mother’s side and had not experienced the doting of her grandparents, so she was a very upright and kind girl.
Zou Ya said that Jiang Yu didn’t have a father and wanted a lively birthday banquet, so she volunteered to attend.
Moreover, she was also looking forward to the banquet. After all, not every child would hold a birthday party before their coming-of-age ceremony. Moreover, it was a child who did not attend kindergarten.
When the car arrived at the Jiang residence, the servants welcomed them at the door. After all, these were all children coming to attend the banquet. They had to be extra mindful of safety.
This wasn’t an official banquet. Li Mei and Jiang Hai represented the entire Jiang family, so they chose not to attend to prevent any misunderstandings.
Among the children who came to visit, there were also adults in the family who followed them, but most of them still sent butlers or servants. After all, this was not an adult’s banquet, so it was better to let the children play freely.
Mi Na was undoubtedly the most exquisitely dressed. Not only had she done her hair and put on a full face of makeup, but she was also wearing a very grand gown. Those who did not know better would think that she was the one who had received the invitation.
Mi Xue did not quite understand her aunt’s actions, but she knew that she was a junior, so she did not say anything.
After entering, Mi Xue quickly went to look for Zou Ya. He was chatting with his cla.s.smates and introducing people to Jiang Yu and Jiang Yi. After all, they didn’t know these people.
Seeing Mi Xue come over, Zou Ya quickly let Jiang Yu and Jiang Yi out and said, “These are the people who invited you today. The older brother, Jiang Yi, and the younger sister, Jiang Yu. They are twins.”
Mi Xue handed the gifts over and said, “Happy birthday.”
The two of them politely accepted it and invited everyone to eat cookies. Jiang Yu said proudly, “My mother made this herself.”
The children surrounded her and tasted it. Then, they praised her mother’s culinary skills. When Jiang An was in the Tan family, she always cooked. Later on, when Tan Si liked to eat snacks, she had to learn with all her might. Her culinary skills were comparable to the people in the bakery.
At this moment, Mi Na walked over and picked up a biscuit.. “Is the Jiang family already so poor that they can send people away with just a biscuit?”
