There were more and more people, and Qiao Yue was busy greeting the invited guests.

Li Qian also ran between the lobby and the kitchen, arranging for staff to deliver coffee and snacks.

The store gradually became lively.

Ji Beichen and Qiao Yue were chatting with Grandpa Ji and his grandpa when their uncle, aunt and their family arrived.

And my cousin whom I haven’t seen for a long time.

Qiao Yue said to Ji Beichen, "You stay with the two elderly people, and I'll greet my cousin and them."

Ji Beichen nodded.

Qiao Yue walked towards her uncle's family and said hello with a smile, "Welcome, come in and sit down."

The uncle looked very happy for Qiao Yue and said with a smile: "Yue Yue, congratulations! You are really promising. You have opened a store. I wish you a prosperous business!"

"Thank you, uncle, for your kind words." Qiao Yue replied.

The cousin standing next to her with a big belly also congratulated Qiao Yue.

My aunt's expression looked normal, she was smiling without saying a word.

Qiao Yue knew who her aunt was and knew that she would not be truly happy for her, so she didn't care.

Qiao Yue quickly found a place for her pregnant cousin to sit down.

"Isn't my cousin-in-law here today?" Qiao Yue asked casually.

The cousin was stunned for a moment, and the smile on her face froze.

My aunt rushed to answer, "Well, your cousin-in-law is very busy. He takes care of such a big business at home. He doesn't have time to come. We will just act as representatives."

The cousin smiled awkwardly and said nothing.

Qiao Yue suddenly understood something in her heart when she saw the mother and daughter singing together.

I'm afraid this cousin-in-law is not busy with business, but is busy with other things.

Moreover, my cousin is pregnant now, but she doesn't look good at all. She has gained a lot of weight, her face is yellow, and she even looks a little weak. I guess she is not living a very good life in her husband's family.

My aunt said this deliberately to save face. She has liked to compare her daughter with Qiao Yue since she was a child.

Now that Qiao Yue has a good career and is her own boss, her aunt is definitely not convinced that her daughter is living a mediocre life in her husband's family.

Qiao Yue asked someone to bring two cups of coffee and some small cakes to her uncle and the others. She also told the clerk to make a milkshake for her cousin. Pregnant women cannot drink coffee.

After giving the instructions, Qiao Yue was called away by Li Qian and went busy.

When my aunt saw Qiao Yue walking away, she stopped pretending, and the smile on her face suddenly disappeared.

She looked at the coffee shop and found that the store was very large and well decorated, and it was in the city center, so the location was very good.

The more she watched, the more angry she became. She didn't expect Qiao Yue to open a store in such a good place without saying anything.

The aunt opened her mouth and said to her daughter Shen Yuanyuan, "Look at her, she has opened a store. Originally, she was not as good as you in everything, but now she is so powerful that she even outshines you."

Shen Yuanyuan: "Mom, can you please stop talking about this? Yueyue has opened a store, and I'm happy for her too."

The uncle also spoke for his daughter, "Yes, what are you talking about on this big day?"

My aunt rolled her eyes: "It's someone else's happy event. It's none of my business. I can't laugh at it."

The uncle didn't want to continue listening to his wife's nagging, so he got up and walked to the next table to chat with Ji Beichen and the others.

The aunt became even more angry when she saw it, and said to Shen Yuanyuan, "Look at your dad and your grandpa, they all know how to look at each other. They thought Qiao Yue was going to be successful, so they hurriedly went to curry favor with her. Your grandpa, today You don’t come with us anymore, but with my grandson-in-law’s family, in his eyes, you are no longer a granddaughter!”

"Mom," Shen Yuanyuan said helplessly, "Dad and grandpa are not that interesting. They just don't want to hear your nagging."

"You still think I'm nagging you?" said my aunt, "I didn't do it for you, your husband, no one shows up today, and your husband's family is not good to you. If your husband's family doesn't like you, what will happen to you in the future? You can’t even get it, your grandfather’s house and money were all given to that Qiao Yue!”

Shen Yuanyuan complained aggrievedly, "It was you who said good things about my husband in the first place, so I married him, and now you are scolding me, Mom, you said everything!"

The aunt paused for a moment and then said, "I... I'm not trying to think of a solution for you. That's why I asked you to coax your grandfather. You can't get the money from your husband's family, so you have to hold on to your mother's family's money." !”

Shen Yuanyuan snorted: "Your idea is to make me greedy for grandpa's house and pension money?"

Aunt: "What's the point?! You are grandpa's granddaughter. This money should be yours. That Qiao Yue is just the granddaughter!"

Shen Yuanyuan curled her lips, "I'm not greedy anyway. If you have the ability, go ahead and be greedy. I'm really happy for Yueyue to open a store."

Auntie: "You are stupid, you are happy for others, huh, let's see how long her store can stay open."

Shen Yuanyuan didn't want to listen to her mother's nagging anymore, so she stood up instead of sitting with her.

My aunt's face turned pale with anger and she cursed in a low voice, "Father and daughter are dead, they can't get enough of each other!"

Shen Yuanyuan walked to the front desk, where Qiao Yue was talking to the employees.

Seeing her cousin coming, Qiao Yue quickly pulled out a chair for her to sit down.

"There are many people today and it's busy. Don't touch you." Qiao Yue said to her cousin.

"It's okay, you're so delicate." The cousin took out a red envelope from her bag and gave it to Qiao Yue.

Qiao Yue immediately refused, "No, you don't need to give me a red envelope."

"This is what you should do. You accept it." The cousin stuffed the red envelope directly into Qiao Yue's pocket.

The cousin was pregnant, and it was not easy for Qiao Yue to push her around, so she had to accept it and thank her.

"Although I don't have much money, I am very happy for you," my cousin seemed to be feeling a little emotional, "Imagine that when we were children, we played in the sand together. Now that we have grown up, I am pregnant and ready to be a mother, and you are also married. Your career is also doing well, I’m happy for you.”

Listening to her cousin's low tone, Qiao Yue asked one more question, "How are you doing lately, are you okay?"

My cousin was silent for a few seconds, then forced a smile and said, "It's good. It's a good day today. Don't say anything else."

Just as Qiao Yue was about to continue asking, her aunt came over and interrupted the sisters' conversation.

The aunt held the coffee cup and said, "Yueyue, this coffee of yours is quite delicious. Can you give me another cup?"

Qiao Yue smiled and nodded, "Of course, I'll ask someone to do it for you."

After saying that, she left. She didn't want to talk to her aunt anymore. She was very annoying.

My cousin looked at her mother and asked, "Don't you look down on this coffee shop? Why are you still drinking cup after cup?"

Aunt: "You're stupid. If you don't drink, you won't drink. Don't take advantage of the bastard."

Cousin: "Let me remind you, you can't sleep if you drink too much coffee."

Aunt: "I'll drink even if I can't sleep!"

Cousin: "Whatever you want."

After saying that, he walked to find his father and grandfather.

Qiao Yue brought another cup of jasmine latte to her aunt. Just when her aunt was about to pull her to continue chatting, Qiao Yue saw an important guest appear at the door, so she took the opportunity to leave her aunt's "devil's clutches".

Qiao Yue smiled and walked out of the door to greet this special guest, Mrs. Wang.
