"Why did you come back so late?"

When Lu Xiyan returned home, it was almost time for a curfew. Yan Lei opened the door and Meng Fanxing was studying his homework in the study upstairs. He heard the movement downstairs and got down.

"Isn't this Tang Jin's case? It's a bit tricky. I have to pull me and analyze it with him." Lu Xiyan explained while taking off his coat.

"Have you eaten?"

"I've eaten, Tang Jin invited you." Lu Xiyan nodded, "How are you preparing for Haozi tomorrow? All the invitations have been sent out?"

"There are not many people here, we just don't know how many people will come to the Meng family." Meng Fanxing said with some concern.

"It's okay, the banquet hall of the New World Hotel is big. Even if there are three or four hundred people, they can still hold it." Lu Xiyan gently patted Meng Fanxing's arm and said.

"Before dinner, Uncle Xi called me and said that Sato had come to him, and this time it increased the price by two million."

"What did you say?"

"I said, there is no hurry. If you promise him now, I'm afraid he might be suspicious. Let's just dry it first and wait until Xiaohao and Mengyao get engaged."

"What did Uncle Xi say?"

"That's what he meant. Sato couldn't see any flaws, let alone the last batch of equipment tonight that has not been shipped." Meng Fanxing said.

"Jiang is still old, so we should leave it to Uncle Xi when we negotiate with the Japanese. He is far more experienced than us." Lu Xiyan said as he went upstairs.

"Um."

"By the way, Xiaohao is engaged tomorrow. Should we prepare a red envelope? My brother-in-law can't be too stingy." Lu Xiyan said

"How much do you think is appropriate?"

"With our wealth, we give less, and people feel stingy. If we give more, young people are uncontrollable and tend to spend money randomly. Otherwise, if Xiao Hao gets married, how about we give them a wedding house?"

"Wedding House, isn't the house they live in now very good?" Meng Fanxing disagreed when he heard this. Even his younger brother could not spoil it so much.

"I'm worried that my dad's temper is that Mengyao is married and can't get along with the old man. It's better to let the couple go out to live, what do you think?"

"Where is dad, I'm throwing it alone at home?"

"We are still there, just dad lives with us." Lu Xiyan said.

"If you are happy, dad may not agree." Meng Fanxing said, "Let's consider this later."

"Then you can give two thousand red envelopes, one thousand per person." Lu Xiyan said.

"Too many, one thousand, five hundred per person is enough." Meng Fanxing cut half of it in the waist.

"I said it was the ocean."

“I’m talking about fiat currency.”

Lu Xiyan smiled embarrassedly. He could not resist Meng Fanxing in this way. Young people are prone to learning bad things when they are rich, so it is not a bad thing to give them less.

...

"Haozi, congratulations, congratulations..."

"Thanks!"

Meng Hao was wearing a suit and bow, and stood at the door to greet the guests. The formerly better police colleagues and neighbors all came.

I didn't forget my relatives and poor friends just because I climbed up to the top.

There is no such thing in the family tradition of the Meng family.

"Brother Hao, sister-in-law Mengyao, congratulations!" Ma Xiaowu came over with a gift box.

"Xiao Wu, I'm here, please come." Meng Hao entered the Political Department. The first person he knew was Ma Xiaowu. Ma Xiaowu was running errands for him at that time.

They are doing well now. If Meng Hao hadn't solved the case of "Zhengzhuwen", he would have probably been on the ground.

The relatives of the Xi family also arrived one after another, but they were a little dissatisfied with Xi Hongwei finding a son-in-law in charge of a police officer.

He De, a young policeman in a judicial arrest room, could marry the daughter of textile king Xi Hongwei? This kid might have used some despicable means.

Such a voice has appeared since Xi Hongwei announced his engagement with his daughter Xi Mengyao and Meng Hao.

Xi Mengyao is a great beauty. There are many people who pursue her, and many of them are well-known people, rich young men or politicians.

Today's engagement banquet is destined to be too calm.

"Miss Mengyao, congratulations, this is your future husband, what is your name?" A young young man came over with several bodyguards.

"Meng Hao." Meng Hao's face changed slightly. Although Lu Xiyan reminded him when he was at home, he was still a little nervous when he encountered such a thing.

But today is his good day, and everyone comes to visit. Sometimes, he must show some kind of demeanor.

"Meng Hao, I haven't heard of it. Is there such a person on the beach?" Cheng Weigao laughed presumptuously.

"I am just an ordinary person. Young Master Cheng has never heard of it. It's normal." Meng Hao has calmed down. On this day, he must not act irresponsibly, mess up the matter, destroy his engagement banquet, and make his parents-in-law lose face.

"Is that so? The toad wants to eat swan meat, I'm gonna!"

"Cheng Weigao, what do you mean?" Xi Mengyao on the side was unhappy. Although Meng Hao was humble, kind and motivated, the most important thing was that he was wholeheartedly devoted to himself, and in her mind, he was still a hero.

In order to investigate the case of Cai Zhuwen, he went deep into the tiger's den and found out that the real murderer was almost assassinated and killed in the street. How could such a person be compared to Cheng Weigao who was waiting for death by relying on his father's elegance?

"Xi Mengyao, it's fine if you don't look down on me, but you actually like such a poor policeman who wants money but has no status. It seems that your Xi family is really at the end of the road!" Cheng Weigao said sarcastically.

"Young Master Cheng, if you are here to congratulate me and Mengyao, I welcome you, but if you are here to make trouble today, please leave." Meng Hao stretched out his hand in a humble and arrogant manner.

"Of course I'm here to congratulate you. I once liked Mengyao. How could I not congratulate you when she was overjoyed?" Cheng Wei smiled arrogantly and took out a red envelope from the suit pocket.

"Meng Hao is right? Come up and get the red envelope."

Meng Hao's face changed slightly. Cheng Weigao would never be so kind-hearted. Standing so far, letting himself go over to get the red envelope, was clearly taking the opportunity to humiliate him.

However, if he doesn't walk over, he will be called a petty person and has no measure.

After thinking about it, Meng Hao still stepped forward and was about to reach out to take it, but Cheng Weigao suddenly relaxed his hand and the red envelope fell directly to the ground.

Meng Hao's face changed drastically. If he had not been injured, with his hand, he could catch the fallen red envelope with just a slight grab, but his current body would not allow him to do so.

I could only watch the red envelope fall to the ground.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't know what was going on just now, my hands numbed. Groom, don't you mind picking it up by yourself, right?" Cheng Weigao apologized, but there was an uncontrollable pride on his face.

No one came up quickly for the fun of watching the fun. Even Xi Mengyao's face changed. Didn't he just agree to Cheng Weigao's pursuit? This person was so despicable and humiliated his fiancé at his engagement banquet.

She was about to stand up and relieve Meng Hao, but Lu Xiyan walked in separately from the onlookers, bent down and picked up the red envelope on the ground, and smiled: "My brother-in-law is engaged today. Thank you for your congratulations. I wonder how much gift Mr. Cheng gave me. I'm very curious?"

As he said that, Lu Xiyan opened the red envelope.

"Hey, it seems like it's empty." In front of everyone's red envelope, there was no gift in it, just an empty red envelope.

This time, the eyes of the people around him surrendered to Cheng Weigao, and the young master Cheng's face turned pale in an instant.

"you……"

"Young Master Cheng, since you are sincerely here to congratulate me, you actually gave me an empty red envelope. What does it mean?" Lu Xiyan's eyes sharpened, "I still want to bully my brother-in-law, but I still want to cheat food and drink. Your Cheng family has fallen to this point?"

Cheng Weigao's face turned red and white, embarrassing, and embarrassing, and he thought that embarrassing Meng Hao and making him lose his ugly face could be considered revenge on Xi Mengyao's rejection of his pursuit, but unexpectedly, he was the one who was embarrassed in the end.

"Did Mr. Cheng forget to put gifts in the red envelope? It doesn't matter, it's not too late to let it go now." Lu Xiyan suddenly changed his tone, looking like he was ready to calm down.

"Yes, I forgot to let it go just now."

"So that's the case. With Mr. Cheng's identity and status in Shanghai, the gift is no less than 10,000 French coins, right?" Lu Xiyan said.

"Ten thousand French currency?" Cheng Weigao's mouthful of blood rushed straight into his throat.

"If it's less, how about 30,000?" Lu Xiyan said in surprise. Everyone understood that this was a disguised blackmailing Cheng Weigao. This Meng Hao's brother-in-law was really insidious.

"Thirty thousand!"

"It's still too little, so this courtesy is too high. We can't bear it. It's 50,000 yuan, so it can't be more." Lu Xiyan said one by one, without giving Cheng Weigao a chance to speak.

Cheng Weigao rolled his eyes. Fifty thousand French dollars were just a gift for engagement. The old man knew that it would break his legs.

"Young Master Cheng Weigao, please remember the gift of 50,000 French currency!" Lu Xiyan did not give the other party any chance, and directly asked the accountant who recorded the gift of 50,000 yuan to record it.

If you don't give it, hehe, I'm going to go to him.

When Cheng Weigao heard this, his eyes suddenly turned dark and he fainted. The bodyguards who followed him were frightened and quickly helped his young master.

"Ma Xiaowu."

"Sir." Ma Xiaowu walked over respectfully.

"Take good care of Mr. Cheng, don't let someone bump into him." Lu Xiyan ordered.

"Don't worry, our brothers are here, and we will never let anyone hurt Mr. Cheng." Ma Xiaowu smiled and waved his hand. The brothers who came to congratulate the Political Department surrounded Cheng Weigao and his bodyguards.

If you don’t pay this, you may not be able to leave.

So cruel.

If such a thing happened, I believe no one dared to make trouble again.

50,000 French dollars, someone paid for the engagement banquet tonight. The money saved was all for Meng Hao and Xi Mengyao. How great.

"Brother-in-law, thank you." Meng Hao's eyes turned red. If Lu Xiyan hadn't saved the situation, he would have really made a big ugly today.

"Family, I'm apart, where is your sister?" Lu Xiyan smiled slightly. He had just arrived and couldn't stand it anymore, so he took action in anger.

"Here are helping to greet the guests inside." Meng Hao said.

"Dr. Lu..."

"If you don't work hours, just like a mouse, you can call your brother-in-law or Brother Anzi." Lu Xiyan corrected.

"Brother-in-law, is that Cheng Weigao's red envelope really empty?" Xi Mengyao asked curiously.

"Hehe, what are you guessing?" Lu Xiyan laughed. Although Cheng Weigao is a playboy who is only good at sensuality, he is not stupid. How could he give an empty red envelope? In fact, there is money in the red envelope, but only ten yuan in the fiat currency.

But where did the money go?
