Chapter 662 Heating Sake
Li Dong quickly put aside the matter of Hu Xiuzhu and the two of them.
March 5th is the day of Cao Feng's wedding. Although Cao Feng and the others are not prepared to make a fuss, and Li Dong is not prepared to make too much publicity, they can't be hasty.
In particular, the wedding was still held in Pingchuan, because the Cao family felt that the Li Dong family had a face.
No matter how low-key you are at this time, you can't even refuse to invite guests, or you will lose face to the Li family.
Li Dong didn't plan to invite people from the shopping mall to join him, but some people still wanted to invite them.
Qin Yuhan's family, Li Dong personally sent the invitation to the door.
After delivering the Qin family's invitation here, Shen Qian also clamored to come over there. Although Li Dong had a headache, he didn't dare to refuse.
Besides them, the other is Wang Jie.
Cao Feng doesn't have many friends in Pingchuan, and he has been with Wang Jie and the others for more than half a year. These people must be invited.
Li Dong specially gave Tang Kuan and the others a two-day vacation, and told them to come to participate.
Then there were some friends and former colleagues of Lin Meng, plus relatives and family members on both sides, and finally made a total of eight tables.
When Li Dong drove home, Cao Fang was busy at home.
Seeing Li Dong came back, Cao Fang hurriedly said: "Dongzi, come here, I have something to tell you."
Li Dong walked over, Cao Fang lowered her voice and said, "Dongzi, do you want to invite more people tomorrow?"
Li Dong asked a little strangely: "What's the matter? Uncle and the others are dissatisfied?"
Cao Fang shook her head and said: "Your uncle and the others are quite satisfied, the key is the Lin family. Although Lin Meng's parents didn't say it clearly, when they met today, Lin Meng's mother specifically mentioned that our family is such a big scene. As a result, there were only eight tables for marriage, which was too shabby.
He also said that on their side, even if the family is too poor to open the pot, at least twenty or thirty tables will be set up for marriage.
At that time, your uncle was somewhat unable to step down from the stage, and I felt very uncomfortable.
After all, Ah Feng got married in Pingchuan, and he was looking at our family.
I know Ah Feng, he is sincere, although he has no great ability,
But after all, he is my nephew, your cousin.
Those relatives and friends from my hometown can't even come from thousands of miles away. There are so many scenes in Pingchuan, it's our family's face.
Dongzi, how about adding a few more tables? "
Seeing his mother looking at him expectantly, Li Dong immediately understood what she meant.
After all, he is his own nephew, or his only nephew, so my mother probably feels dissatisfied.
From everyone's point of view, Li Dong is so capable. When his cousin got married, he didn't dare to say that he would set up hundreds of tables to support the scene. There would always be dozens of tables.
But now there are less than ten tables, it is indeed too shabby.
Seeing this, Li Dong said helplessly: "Mom, since the Lin family is not satisfied, then you can just prepare a few more tables. People are not easy, people from your restaurant, people from Dongping, and I will invite some more It is not difficult to gather twenty tables when people come.
In fact, I'm not reluctant to spend money, and it doesn't cost a lot of money.
I was thinking that my cousin and sister-in-law are down-to-earth people and doing a good job, so don't make too much trouble, and they won't be able to deal with themselves in the future.
I didn't expect that now everyone thinks I'm stingy, and you say I'm wronged or not.
Come on, while I still have time, I'll make a few phone calls, isn't it human? If it doesn't work, I'll call all the people from far away, and there are hundreds of tables. "
In fact, Li Dong was really helpless, and this matter made people complain instead.
He didn't say some things, originally he was thinking about letting Cao Feng keep a low profile so that he could make arrangements for himself in the future.
Yuanfang knows that there are not many people who have a relationship with Cao Feng and himself. When the stock market is over, he will arrange a position for Cao Feng.
It's all right now, everyone wants to make more noise.
There was a lot of movement, and the relationship between myself and Cao Feng probably couldn't be hidden.
Although it doesn't matter much to Li Dong if you can't hide it, it still has a lot of influence on Cao Feng.
Once he enters the distance with the identity of Li Dong's cousin, then Cao Feng must be prepared to be viewed by colored glasses.
It's hard to say whether my cousin can survive, anyway, the path I arranged for Cao Feng will be broken in the end.
But Li Dong turned his head and thought, this is also human nature.
After all, marriage is a major event, so everyone naturally wants to be more lively and save face.
In fact, Cao Feng is not really satisfied with the route he arranged for Cao Feng.
That being the case, let’s have fun as long as it’s lively. Some people may pursue a down-to-earth life, and a mediocre future may be more suitable for Cao Feng.
...
In the afternoon, Li Dong made a lot of phone calls. Although he is getting married tomorrow, he is a bit anxious to invite guests today.
However, Li Dong called to invite him personally, which was enough face.
Except for those who were too busy to leave, almost all the people Li Dong called and invited promised to come tomorrow.
After a busy afternoon, I finally got these things done.
Li Dong just breathed a sigh of relief when the doorbell rang.
He stepped forward to open the door, and saw Cao Feng standing outside the door, sweating profusely.
Seeing this, Li Dong smiled and said, "Cousin, you're only getting married tomorrow. Seeing that you're nervous, why didn't you decorate the new house?"
"The layout over there is almost done. Wang Jie and Tang Kuan are working on it, and some friends of Xiaomeng are also helping. I'm here to invite you."
"Please?"
"Isn't Jiangbei here to buy warming wine before the wedding? I greeted my aunt and uncle before, and I forgot to say hello on your side. It just so happens that the new house is almost decorated, let's have some drinks together in a few nights."
Cao Feng smiled naively, but the smile was unnatural.
Li Dong knew what he meant at a glance, it's not that he forgot to mention it, he came here specially to entertain guests and block people.
He was probably afraid that Li Dong would not go, so he didn't call.
Li Dong was a little helpless, sometimes it wasn't because he didn't care about it, and he was not unfamiliar with something that could be resolved.
In the eyes of everyone, Li Dong is a big shot.
But big people are generally withdrawn and independent, and if there is a little more to add, they are probably what others think of as cold-blooded.
Obviously, Li Dong is also indifferent in the eyes of many people.
Although Cao Feng is his cousin, he really doesn't know much about his cousin, he only knows that he is very powerful.
Cao Feng didn't understand other things, but he had experienced the stock market from beginning to end.
In half a year, my cousin made more than one billion yuan in an understatement.
If this number is spread, it will definitely scare many people to death.
The more Cao Feng knew about Li Dong, the more he felt that his cousin was really amazing!
In addition, Li Dong didn't have much contact with everyone, so he seemed a bit aloof and indifferent, so Cao Feng, the housewarming wine, came to invite him specially.
After all, Li Dong is the most important person on the man's side. If he doesn't come, the others may have other ideas.
Although I really want to tell my cousin that he thinks too much, but Li Dong is really too lazy to explain, the explanation is meaningless, everyone can understand it if they can understand it, and forget it if they can't understand it.
Seeing Cao Feng's expectant face, Li Dong nodded and said, "I'll change clothes, and I'll go with you later."
Cao Feng breathed a sigh of relief: "Alright then, I'll wait for you. Anyway, there's no rush, it's still early."
"My parents have gone?"
"Well, the housewarming wine was invited at Dongfang Yuzhuang. My aunt and uncle have both gone."
"Don't let me know when you leave." Li Dong smiled, and then shouted to grandma on the balcony: "Grandma, cousin, don't you want to go to the housewarming wine at night?"
Grandma Li Dong leaned on the rocking chair and said calmly: "I'm not going, don't call me at the wedding banquet, I'm so happy."
Li Dong was speechless, and Cao Feng said helplessly, "Forget it, grandma can rest at home."
Grandma Li Dong has a habit of never attending wedding banquets, whether they are outsiders or family members.
When Uncle Li Dong and the others got married, his grandmother refused to attend.
According to the old man, she has experienced too many bizarre things in her life, and she has too much evil spirit, which usually has little influence, but the blessing is too heavy during the wedding banquet, which is easy to form a hedge.
Specifically, of course, this is not what it means, anyway, it probably means this.
The family members are also used to it now, so Li Dong is not used to it, so he asked casually, otherwise everyone would not ask this at all, and it would be useless to ask.
Not caring about his supernatural grandma anymore, Li Dong followed Cao Feng to Dongfang Yuzhuang after changing his clothes.
...
There are not too many people for the warm house wine in the evening.
That's Li Dong's family and Cao's family, plus Wang Jie and others.
Lin Meng is no longer working in the hotel today, and Li Dong sent the Lin family to the hotel to settle down two days ago.
Li Dong's uncle and parents were busy at night, so they ate very quickly, and they left the banquet in a short time.
In the end, only Li Dong was left eating at the table. Everyone drank for a few rounds. Wang Jie joked: "Dongzi, now that my cousin is married, you are the only one left. When can I drink your housewarming wine?"
"What's the rush? You think I'm like you. I'm a father in my early twenties, a grandfather in my forties, and a grandpa in my sixties."
Wang Jie's face was full of black lines, and he couldn't laugh or cry for a long time: "Are you sure that my son and grandson will also have babies at the age of twenty?"
"According to your temperament, the possibility is very high."
"Get out! What is my temper? I have a better temper than you."
Wang Jie cursed with a smile, and then said to Cao Feng: "Cousin, later on you and your cousin sister-in-law will give birth to a big fat boy, then this guy will be envious, let's see if he is in a hurry."
Cao Feng smiled stupidly and didn't speak.
Seeing this, Li Dong smiled and said: "I want to give birth to a son earlier, cousin, work harder, and try to let me hold a nephew next year. In my life, I have never been an elder for anyone. I finally recognized a godson. Others Dad is still like a baby, he doesn't even touch it, and when his cousin is born, he will be my nephew, so you don't object to touching my cousin?"
Cao Feng laughed immediately and said, "I don't object, I don't object, you can touch it vigorously."
Wang Jie next to him also answered with a smile: "I haven't been an elder in this life, it's like you were an elder in your previous life."
Li Dong laughed with the strength of wine and said: "Don't say it, I really did it in my previous life. But it's a pity that I haven't met each other, so I actually like children in this life."
Wang Jie and Cao Feng thought he was joking, but they didn't take it seriously.
But only Li Dong knew that he was not joking.
In his previous life, he was in his early thirties. Although he was not married, Li Nanming and Li Qing were married.
But at that time, the two sides broke up, and almost never communicated with each other. In addition, Li Dong on Cao Feng's side had never dealt with each other in his previous life, so he naturally didn't have the opportunity to be an elder.
It is not a lie for Li Dong to say that he likes children, sometimes he really envies those who have children.
It's a pity that in his past and present lives, he never had the opportunity to hug his own child.
The reason why Li Dong was willing to take in Tian Xiaoyu and Xiao Shitou probably had something to do with this.
Of course, there is no need to explain these to everyone.
Seeing Cao Feng's happy face, Li Dong smashed his mouth, shouldn't it be time for him to solve the major issues in life?
My wife and children are hot on the kang, sometimes I think about it and I am actually quite happy.
But thinking about his love life again, Li Dong sighed lightly, it was a mess, let's talk about the marriage.
This night, Li Dong drank a lot.
When he went back, it was Wang Jie who sent him home. Li Dong suddenly asked when he was about to enter the door: "Do you still think about Chen Yue now? Have you ever regretted it?"
Wang Jie was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "The past is over, you, a bachelor, don't understand, when you really get married and have children, you will feel that there is nothing you can't let go of."
"Yeah?"
Li Dong murmured, and then he didn't speak again. Li Dong didn't sleep well that night.
