Chapter 649: Our In-laws

“Yeah, I heard that Wei Zhiqian gets along well with the Tan family.” Someone nodded in agreement. “You see, they do have a good relationship with each other.”

Someone pondered for a moment and then mustered up his courage to greet Wei Zhiqian. He was thinking that he could greet Tan Wenzi first, and then he would be introduced to Wei Zhiqian.

However, no sooner had he walked over to them, he suddenly heard someone gasp. He looked over and saw Wei Mingwen and his wife walking together with an old couple. At that moment, Xiao Menghan was holding the old lady’s arm.

The four people were chatting and laughing.

“Aren’t they Mr. Wei and his wife?” Someone said in surprise, “Then, how about the old couple?”

Since Xiao Menghan was taking care of them so respectfully and carefully, they must be someone very important.

The old couple was busy with their daily interactions with the old men and old ladies from the Eight Great Clans. Therefore, although the people present were all middle-aged men, compared with the old couple, they were much younger, and that was the reason why they had never seen the old couple before.

However, looking at the Xiao Menghan and Wei Mingwen’s attitude towards the old couple, they knew they should show them respect when they talked about them.

Although the people present didn’t know the identity of the old couple, they all quietly approached Wei Zhiqian. They tried to get closer, which would enable them to hear their conversation, and then they would get some information about the old couple.

However, no sooner had these people begun to make a guess than they heard Wei Zhiqian address the old couple. “Grandpa, grandma.”

Tan Wenci, Xu Mingzhen, and Tan Jinqi all voiced out, “Old Mister, Old Madam.”

They also heard the little girl beside Wei Zhiqian say, “Grandfather, grandmother, uncle, auntie.”

Everyone was dumbfounded. Their minds went blank. They couldn’t believe what was going on.

Wei Zhiqian called them grandfather and grandmother. In other words, the old couple was the patriarch and matriarch of the Wei family!

They were Old Mister Wei and Old Madam Wei!

In fact, all the old misters and old ladies of the Eight Great Clans preferred staying at home most of the time. Even if they wanted to get together, they would only inform those who knew.

As per what Old Madam Wei said, in the past, for the sake of the honor of the clan, there were many times when they couldn’t do or say what they wanted to, and they were worried every day that something would go wrong.

Now, they were old, and they had become the elders of so many people. Therefore, they wanted the young generation to do what they wanted to do and say what they wanted to say. Don’t care about other people’s complaint.

They did not want to make trouble for others, so they only played with their friends.

“Old Mister, Old Madam!” Ming Yeqing and Ming Yuqian’s father, Ming Jing Shan walked out with his wife, Zhu Cailin. Behind them were Ming Yuqian and his wife, followed by Ming Yeqing.

Ming Yuqian’s wife was holding Ming Chengjing, her son, in her arms.

They began to chat with each other.

Ming Jingshan said to the old couple, “The Qin family and Qi family have just arrived. Yutong and her husband will take care of it.”

“Please come in.” After Ming Jingshan received the message from Butler Zhu that Old Mister Wei and Old Madam Wei were coming to the party in person, he was surprised. The invitation he sent to the old couple was just to show his politeness. He didn’t expect that they would come in person.

In the first place, Ming Jingshan even planned to cancel the invitation. It was just because both Ming Yeqing and Wei Zhiqian had a good relationship with Tan Mo. That was why he finally agree to send an invitation to the Wei family. He thought that only Wei Zhiqian would come. However, who would have known that the entire Wei family would come?

After all, only few people of the Chu family came here today, which was a family he had a much better relationship with.

Ming Jingshan felt a little bit confused. Logically speaking, even if the Wei family came, they shouldn’t have brought Old Mister Wei and Old Madam Wei here.

Ming Yeqing waved to Tan Mo, but she didn’t come over. After all, Wei Zhiqian was with her. He had better stay away from her.

Tan Mo was still being held by Wei Zhiqian’s hand. She couldn’t greet Ming Yeqing face to face. The only thing she could do was wave to Ming Yeqing with a smile.

Wei Zhiqian glanced at the two of them from the corner of his eye. It seemed that he had separated them.

“You made an appointment in advance to come together, right? Or is it such a coincidence that you just happen to meet at the door?” Ming Jingshan knew that the Wei family had a good relationship with the Tan family.

In Ming Jingshan’s opinion, the Tan family was really lucky, which he had even talked about with Zhu Cailin.

The Ming family and the Chu family had a family relationship. However, the Tan family had nothing to do with the Wei family in the first place. Only Xu Mingzhen and Li Xiangrong had a good relationship with each other.

However, Li Xiangrong never helped the Tan family with anything.

Because of Tan Mo, the Tan family had such a good relationship with the Wei family. They also got along well with Old Mister Wei and Old Madam Wei. In that case, they had got everything. Who would have known that the Tan family would be so lucky?

“We have an appointment with our in-laws,” Old Madam Wei said with a smile. When she said this, she straightened up her shoulders, confident, and even proud!

Old Madam Wei finally understood what her old friends’ expression meant when they mentioned their granddaughters-in-law. It was because they felt their lineages furthered. And that made them more confident. She had the same feeling now.

“In-laws?” Ming Jingshan and his wife were surprised, not to mention Ming Yuqian, who didn’t have much contact with the Tan family. He wasn’t as close to the Tan family as Ming Jingshan and his wife. Therefore, he was even more confused at the moment.

Old Madam Wei was just waiting for someone to ask her about it. Otherwise, why would she come here?

Old Mister Wei and Old Madam Wei stood there, which was a very eye-catching scene. Therefore, those who saw the Wei family earlier stood behind them. They knew it was not appropriate to chat with them now.

More and more people stood behind them, which soon formed a long queue. Those who were closer to the front all listened to the conversation carefully.

The Wei family’s in-laws?

Did they misunderstand what Old Madam Wei meant?

They saw Old Madam Wei take Zhu Cailin’s hand. She patted the back of her hand slightly and said with a smile on her face, “Didn’t Yeqing tell you guys about it?”

Ming Yeqing was speechless. He had promised Tan Mo to keep it a secret. And he kept his promise. At this moment, he was facing a dilemma.

Hearing what Old Madam Wei said, Ming Jingshan turned and looked at his son. “What? He has already known it?” he wondered. “How dare he hide the truth from us?”

Ming Yeqing didn’t reply.

“It’s my grandson, Zhiqian,” said Old Madam Wei with a happy smile. “He is going out with Momo”

Both Ming Jingshan and Zhu Cailin were speechless. They couldn’t hold back their astonishment, Due to their instinct, they turned back and looked at Wei Zhiqian immediately. “What a bastard!” they thought.

The truth was that it was all Wei Zhiqian’s fault that Tan Mo called him “uncle”. Everyone who knew Tan Mo had known about it.

The reason why Wei Zhiqian did this was that he was afraid that Tan Mo would be bullied by others.

Wei Zhiqian had to let everyone that knew about Tan Mo understand that he was the one who protected Tan Mo. And that was why he asked her to call him “uncle”.

When Wei Zhiqian thought about it, he had to admit that it was all his fault. After all, he was now going out with Tan Mo. Everybody would see him as a bastard. Even if he wasn’t her uncle, Tan Mo was way too younger than him.

“What? When did that happen?” Zhu Cailin turned around and asked..
