Section 25 Family Banquet
One sentence made Zhou Xue blush. Li Cong was about to explain something, but suddenly thought that the more he explained that he was fine, the more serious it would be, especially when explaining to the elderly at home, so he just smiled and said nothing. What, Zhou Xue looked up and saw Li Cong smiling, and couldn't help but think of the absurdity of that night. She had never played so crazy, and she did something she hadn't tried before, and her face became even redder. Li Cong's father also came here. Seeing that the situation was getting worse, he went out cheerfully.
"Hey, why are you smirking for nothing, why did you introduce me to your mother at night?" After a long time, Li Cong knew that Zhou Xue was smiling at Zhou Xue, and Zhou Xue was terrified by his laughter, and said angrily.
"Introduce as you want, it's okay, we can just have a flirt, the province's family always asks me to go on blind dates, and they won't be in a hurry when they see someone, besides, I brought you back, if There is no special relationship, can you, a girl from the city, come with me to such a small village." Li Cong's answer was very ambiguous, and he knew he was joking, but Zhou Xue didn't think so anymore.
It was time to get off work. Li Cong and Zhou Xue walked home one after the other. Li Cong was fine, but Zhou Xue's heart kept beating, as if he had been frightened by something. Li Cong wanted to comfort him a few times. That's right, but I think that the more I talk at this time, the more scared I am, let her be normal. On the way, I thought about where to go to order a new energy conversion machine. The two of them walked towards the same door with the same mind. go. As soon as you enter the door, good guy, this is not an ordinary family banquet. Why are all my aunts here? This is a family gathering. It seems that it is not a trivial matter for me to bring my daughter-in-law back. This time it will be a drill. Li Cong just wanted to introduce Zhou Xuelai to everyone, but was dragged by his younger sister Xiaohui. His mother looked at this girl Zhang, who was so handsome. After chatting for a few words, she laughed so hard that she couldn't see her eyes. Xue's social skills are not at an average level either.
"Mingzi, what's the matter with you? You have a bitter face." Li Cong found out that the whole family was unhappy with Li Ming.
"It's nothing, brother, I think it would be great if Xiaohua can have this scene when he comes to our house." It turns out that this kid thinks about others when he sees things, but today he can't fulfill his dream. Xiaohua called the old man and had to ask his brothers to kneel in the courtyard. The feeling of that day cannot be repeated.
"Don't worry, brother will definitely bring Xiaohua to your house within this year. Besides, don't you think about these things all day, can you do it? If you have no money or power, no matter how good the girl is, she will leave you. You have to have your own business, and you have nothing to think about how to build a building for our company." Li Cong patted his younger brother on the head and said, intending to continue to educate his younger brother, when the voice of the old man in the room could not be resisted Come over, "When dinner is ready, everyone goes into the house to eat." After hearing this, everyone in the yard began to enter the house to find their own seats. According to the rules in the countryside, men and women each have a seat. The men start with grandpa and go down in order, and the women start with grandma. , The difference is that Li Cong's mother pulled Zhou Xue to sit together. This action shows that this mother-in-law likes this daughter-in-law very much.
"Today, our whole family is here. Before we eat, let me say a few words. Liangzi opened a factory in our village. His father told me just now that I am going to submit a resignation report to the town. We should retire too. Now, I'll go to Liangzi's factory to be the head of the supervision department. You kids are also working in the factory. I'm going to be ugly. I don't show any respect when I do things. Liangzi's money is not a big wind I know that the salary he gave you is not low, and you have to tell your subordinates that they are worthy of that salary. I don’t want my salary. I will save it until the end of the year to see who does a good job in our family and reward them together. Give it to him, and our family will work together to make it bigger and stronger." The old man is worthy of being the secretary of the brigade for decades, and he can even say things like becoming bigger and stronger. Just as he was about to applaud, the old man went on to say: "After talking about the company's business, let's talk about our family's affairs. This is the first time for Miss Zhou to come to our house. Don't be restrained.
The people in the family are very kind. We will be a family in the future. If your mother is not here, if you have something to do, just tell your grandma, let’s have dinner together. "Now Li Cong stared. The old man said that if our family makes this factory bigger and stronger, wouldn't it turn this factory into a family business? But we can't spoil the old man's interest now, and we should slowly join new ones in the future. blood to attack the power of the Li family in the company.
"Liangzi, I heard that our factory has started to recruit people again. Relatives from ten miles and eight villages have come to look for them. Can you give our family some default places? We can't say that the president is my nephew. It would be impossible to arrange for someone in the factory, it would be embarrassing to say that.” Li Cong’s biggest headache is this. In the early stage, it can be said that it is the need for development, but now it is almost on the formal level. If it is still the case to recruit people , It will be quite detrimental to future management, but the eldest uncle just brought it up.
"Don't mention this matter. Liangzi knows what to do. Whoever enters the factory to work in the future must follow the normal channels. I will set the rules for Liangzi. From now on, all the children in your family will be Liangzi's cousins. If you go directly like this, those at home The relatives of the Seventh Aunt and the Eighth Uncle all let me go through the normal procedures. If you get in, you have to rely on your ability. Getting fired is not the person who lost you." Li Congzheng wanted to explain to his uncle, but he didn't expect the old man to block the road directly. Li Cong, his grandfather's labor force, still feels a little guilty.
"Hehe, Dad, this matter is also my nephew who bothers me too much, but your old man said so, and I asked him to go through the normal procedures when recruiting people." Uncle also saw the authority of the old man, or Don't continue to entangle, everyone at this table had the idea of inserting a few people into it, but I didn't expect the old man to block everyone's way, and the meal was not as happy as it was at the beginning. However, Li Cong still ate with a sullen head. It is better not to start at this time, or he will not be able to plug this hole in the future.
A dinner table that was originally very lively was so cold, Li Cong was about to slip away, but his mother waved his hand, and the commander at home called, and if he didn't go there, he would be shot. "Liangliang, go out for a walk with mom, mom eats a bit too much." Li Cong hadn't taken a walk with his mom for a long time, but he had a bad premonition, and they walked slowly towards the entrance of the village after leaving the door.
"Liangliang, Mom heard what your grandpa said just now, but what he said earlier is that children from your aunt and uncle's family can go in directly. What about children from your uncle's family and your aunt's family? Do you have to have one too?" Remuneration, besides, Mom won’t be leaving tomorrow. I know you haven’t appointed the personnel director yet, so I will. Mom was in the personnel department of the bureau when she didn’t retire. She knows all about these things. You heard what I said. Is it?" Li Cong's mother really said something that Li Cong could not refuse, seeing Li Cong listening absent-mindedly, she stretched out her hand and pinched Li Cong's ear, it turned out that Li Cong's old grasping of Li Cong's ear was inherited from here .
"Oh, my dear mother, you can check it out. I didn't say no. In fact, the elder brothers of my uncle's family are pretty good, and they came back from the army. I'm planning to set up a security department. Just recruit, it’s okay, I’ll leave this matter to the future Minister of Personnel, how is your mother? Is your son obedient?” There is no brave man under violence, let alone his own mother who beat someone, Li Cong directly chose I gave in, but added another sentence, "But it has to be the same as the rules here. I don't take care of other relatives who are out of reach, unless they are really talented."
"Don't worry about that. Mom is not an ignorant person. Mom appointed you to choose one. How long have you been with this Zhou Xue? I think she's pretty good, and you should settle down well. You're a big man now. , your father and I both expect to have grandchildren, busy work is important, but the family can’t ignore it.” My mother was entrusted by the family to talk about this matter, how should I explain it? If you say that you and Zhou Xue If it doesn't matter, I'm afraid my mother won't believe it. Even if she believes it, she will find other girls to introduce to herself. Wouldn't it be more troublesome then.
"Well, I know Mom, I will know what to do. You can go to see uncle tomorrow. I will go with you and visit grandma by the way. I haven't seen her for a long time." Li Cong To put it bluntly, the man who looked like a filial son was a filial son.
"Well, okay, Mom knows you are filial, Mom thought I had to tell you about your uncle's affairs for a long time, and I have prepared so many things to tell you for nothing, and there is another thing, our whole family comes here to live. You can’t all be crowded at Grandpa’s house anymore, you should get a house wherever it’s convenient, and you should start a family.” My mother really tricked me into asking her to get married, it seems that Zhou Xue’s impression of her mother is not ordinary. It's so good, I really hired an almighty secretary, the two of them were shopping slowly outside, and discussions started in the room.
"Father, how can you say that? You have met my brother and nephew. I can't say that Liangliang was here just now. It's easy for our own family members to talk after they enter the factory. You see, don't you put these people in your family now?" Are the roads all blocked? How can we hold our heads up in front of our relatives in the future?" The eldest uncle looked bitter, needless to say, he was boasting in front of relatives, so it's hard to explain it now, Li Cong The grandfather lit his own cigarette unhurriedly, and after he exhaled, he said, "I've decided on this matter. The factory is owned by Liangzi. If you ask me to show him, I have to do my duty. Have you ever thought about it? It’s all relatives of your own family, how does he manage it? Now you say that you should be expelled. If you really expelled your nephew, what do you think? How will Liangzi see you in the future?”.
The old man's awareness is really not so high. Everyone wanted to talk to the old man after dinner so that this matter can be settled, but they didn't expect the old man to say that, and they were a little unhappy, but this is the case in this family, the old man Li Cong's authority is the greatest, and no one said anything, but Li Cong understood that after the family banquet, the distance between his family and him began to distance, because he had a factory and so much money, and he was no longer the same as before. Li Cong, now even the family members refuse to do something, they start to alienate themselves, it seems that the theme of this family banquet deviates from their imagination, grandparents and parents are to see the new daughter-in-law, And these relatives came for the work of their relatives, what a headache.
