Chapter 1731: The Proud Xiaozhuang and the Petty Zhou Chen

The weather was fine and the sky was clear.

Huang Ling had just finished shopping and was on her way back to the alley with her basket. As soon as she reached the entrance of the alley, she saw two conspicuous red banners hanging on the wall.

‘Congratulations to Zhuang Tuxi for being admitted to the Department of Journalism and Communication of Fudan University’

‘Congratulations to Zhuang Tunan for being admitted to the Department of Architecture of Tongji University’

The banners were so conspicuous that anyone passing by could see the two red banners.

Huang Ling looked at the banners with a happy face. It was a bit ostentatious, but it was also really cool.

When the neighbors saw Huang Ling, they all congratulated her.

"Huang Ling, congratulations to your Tunan and Tuxi for getting into college."

"Congratulations, two key universities. I heard that Tuxi even got the provincial top scorer. That's amazing. Huang Ling, you and your teacher Zhuang are so lucky."

"Your Tunan and Tuxi are both amazing. They have been different from other children since they were young."

"Sister Ling, congratulations, congratulations, two prestigious university students, it brings honor to the family."

"Huang Ling, when will you let teacher Zhuang share his educational experience with us neighbors? Two prestigious universities in our alley are amazing."

Huang Ling responded to the enthusiastic neighbors with a smile on her face.

"Thank you, thank you everyone, thank you everyone."

After finally getting rid of the neighbors who were congratulating her, Huang Ling returned home and saw the two admission letters on the table at first sight.

She picked up the two admission letters and read them carefully from beginning to end several times. She couldn't express her excitement in words. She couldn't help dancing and even had a romantic duet with Zhuang Chaoying who had been waiting for a long time.

Even if she had many disagreements and gaps with Zhuang Chaoying before, at this moment, these were not worth mentioning in the joy of both sons being admitted to prestigious universities. At this moment, their joy was shared.

Today was a joyous day, a day worth celebrating, so the two of them didn't plan to cook, but went directly to buy cold dishes and stewed dishes, and called the Lin and Wu families to have a dinner together in the yard to celebrate.

During the meal, Song Ying took Zhou Chen and Zhuang Tunan's admission letters and called Lin Dongzhe hard to let him see.

Lin Dongzhe was very depressed. It was a great thing for him that his two brothers were admitted to college. He was also happy from the bottom of his heart. However, he was often spurred by his own mother these days. Every time, he was taught a lesson by his two brothers. His ears were calloused.

Not only Song Ying was envious, but even Wu Jianguo and Zhang Amei, who had never paid much attention to their children's education, were also envious and jealous.

However, because Wu Shanshan was now in high school and her grades in No. 1 Middle School were also very good, the two of them still had a glimmer of hope.

Wu Jianguo didn't say much, but Zhang Amei shouted, "Shanshan, you will be a sophomore in high school after the summer vacation, and you will also take the college entrance examination the year after next. Learn more from Tunan and Tuxi, ask for advice, and take the key university in the future. And Xiaojun, you also have to study hard."

She didn't want Wu Shanshan to go to high school before, but now she has, and she is a face-saving person. Even if she doesn't like Wu Shanshan, she doesn't reject the idea of ​​Wu Shanshan going to college as before.

She also wanted to enjoy the high-profile scene of pulling banners.

The adults were chatting at one table, while Zhou Chen and his friends were not only eating, but also chatting at the table.

"Zhuang Tunan, Zhuang Tuxi, congratulations on getting into a famous university in Shanghai."

Wu Shanshan couldn't hide her envy. Getting into university has always been her goal, but she still needs to wait for another two years.

Zhang Min also congratulated her. She is now in a technical secondary school and has started dating, and is gradually drifting away from students like Zhou Chen.

Zhuang Tunan was very happy and responded politely.

"Shanshan, you have good grades too. You will definitely get into your favorite university in two years."

"I hope so. I will work hard."

Envy aside, Zhou Chen and Zhuang Tunan's success also made Wu Shanshan see a bright future. She made a decision in her heart that she would definitely get into a university in Shanghai in the future.

The success of Zhou Chen and Zhuang Tunan was a great encouragement to the students in the alley. If there were no college students in the alley, it would be fine. Everyone would play bad together.

But now there are two college students at once, and both are from famous universities, so the publicity effect is too sensational.

It is no exaggeration to say that because of this incident, a wave of learning has begun to rise in the alley.

After dinner, everyone went to Lin Dongzhe's house to watch TV again.

Because both sons were admitted to college, Huang Ling asked Zhou Chen to call Zhuang Hualin and ask Zhuang Hualin to arrange for Xiang Pengfei to come to Suzhou and live at home in the future.

This was something Zhou Chen agreed to Zhuang Hualin last year. Huang Ling did not object at that time, and now she will naturally not object. Both sons were admitted to college, and her mind was mostly solved. She brought three children here, and now there is one more Xiang Pengfei, she thinks it's nothing.

Zhuang Hualin received Zhou Chen's call and was very excited. First congratulated, and then said that Xiang Pengfei would be arranged to come to Suzhou soon.

…………

Zhuang Chaoying, who usually doesn't like to take a walk, always likes to go out for a walk these days. Once he goes, he stays for a long time, even putting down the work that he usually cares about most.

At dinner time that day, he announced a piece of news with a beaming smile.

"Tunan, Tuxi, your parents are very happy to know that you have been admitted to a key university. They have been praising you and saying that you have brought honor to the family and are good children of our Zhuang family."

Zhou Chen said in a very unpleasant way: "Didn't they always say that I was disrespectful to my elders, disobedient and unfilial, and unworthy of being a descendant of the Zhuang family?"

Zhuang Chaoying's smile froze, and then he glared at Zhou Chen with dissatisfaction.

"What's wrong with you, kid? We are all family, why are you still holding grudges? Besides, what you did before was already very bad, and I still have to talk about you..."

Seeing that he was about to start the education mode again, Huang Ling was afraid that the father and son would fight again, so she hurriedly persuaded them.

"Okay, Chaoying, get to the point, get to the point."

After being interrupted by Huang Ling, Zhuang Chaoying snorted twice, but was not angry, and changed the subject.

"My parents said that Tunan and Tuxi were admitted to key universities, which brought honor to the family. As parents, they should also congratulate the two children, so they said they would hold a family dinner this Sunday and go to a restaurant to celebrate. Pengfei happened to be able to arrive in Suzhou before Sunday, so they could also welcome Pengfei."

As soon as he said this, Huang Ling and others looked at him with astonishment. It was no wonder that they were shocked, because they had never eaten a family dinner hosted by the old couple in so many years.

Huang Ling asked for confirmation: "Is it true? Are my parents so generous?"

This book was recently updated in ##六x-on:x-on:九x-on:x-on:x-on:书x-on:x-on:吧!! Update!

"Hey, A Ling, what you said is true. My parents have never been stingy, but they have always been used to saving. This is a big event. As parents, it is reasonable for them to hold a family dinner to celebrate."

Zhuang Chaoying had a proud attitude, especially in front of his wife and children.

He thought, you always said that grandma and dad were partial, but now you see, grandma and dad are not partial at all, they still care about our family, and now they stand up when they encounter such a big thing.

Zhou Chen and his friends just smiled falsely, and did not expose that it was the first time in so many years that they spent the money of the two old people, as if it was so glorious and great. However, it was rare to have a meal with them, so they did not say anything and let Zhuang Chaoying be complacent.

Huang Ling suddenly asked: "Chaoying, when the grandparents and daddy invite us, can we invite Song Ying and Lin Gongdongzhe? Song Ying was very caring and helped our family a lot before Tunan and Tuxi took the college entrance examination. Tunan and his family also contributed to their admission to college. We must bring them."

Zhuang Chaoying waved his hand and said, "No problem. We must invite Lin Gong and Song Ying to have a good time."

The Zhuang family's reputation in their area is not good. He is eager to use this opportunity to fight for face and let Lin Wufeng and Song Ying see that his parents are also sensible, generous, and impartial grandparents.

The day of the banquet came in a blink of an eye. Xiang Pengfei arrived the day before and stayed with his father temporarily at the home of the third brother Zhuang Ganmei. In order to save travel expenses, Zhuang Hualin did not come this time.

The old couple of the Zhuang family, plus the family of four of the third child Zhuang Ganmei, Xiang Pengfei and his son, Zhou Chen's family of five, and the Lin family of three, a total of sixteen people, just enough to sit at two tables.

The restaurant was booked in a noodle restaurant near the cotton mill. It was not easy to spend the money of Zhuang's father and grandmother, so don't expect them to treat you to a good restaurant.

But even so, when so many people went to the restaurant together, Zhuang's father and grandmother looked quite serious, and they didn't look very happy.

Even Zhuang Ganmei and his wife didn't smile. In their minds, the money of the two old people was their money. Now they were going to treat so many people to a meal, just like digging out their flesh and blood.

When ordering dishes, Zhou Chen spoke only after everyone else at their table had ordered.

"Give me two servings of beef noodles. Do you have any braised or cold dishes? Give us a few too."

"Yes, we have cold dishes and braised dishes. How many do you want?"

"Fa Fa Fa, eight..."

Just as Zhou Chen was about to speak, Zhuang Chaoying was startled and interrupted him: "Sorry, no, we don't need cold dishes. Just give him one serving of beef noodles."

After saying that, he kept winking at Zhou Chen, his face not looking good.

Zhou Chen looked innocent: "One portion of noodles is not enough. I am growing up now, one bowl is not enough. Besides, it is my father who is treating us today. If you don't let me order, people who don't know will think that my father can't afford it. Isn't this embarrassing for my father, right, father?"

When these words came out, the people at both tables, including the waiters, were a little confused. Zhuang Chaoying was even more furious: "Tuxi, you, today is a big day, don't go too far."

Zhou Chen didn't look at him, but looked at Zhuang's father, and asked with a smile: "Dad, this is the first time I have eaten a meal you paid for since I grew up. Isn't today our graduation banquet? Can't we order whatever we want to eat?"

Zhuang's father was immediately put there, with an ugly expression. If he was at home, he could still lose his temper, but in the restaurant, he could only suffer in silence.

"Order, Boss. Today is my grandson's graduation banquet. Order whatever you want."

"Father, I'm not polite then."

Waiting for this sentence, Zhou Chen smiled slightly and said to the waiter: "Four cold dishes and four stir-fried dishes, serve to both tables. Do you have stir-fried dishes?"

"Yes, yes."

When Granny Zhuang at another table heard this, she panicked and shouted: "No, we don't need it for our table. We order it ourselves."

Zhou Chen said with a smile: "Grandma, don't be so polite, I'll help you order, comrade, just do as I say, you can go and order the staple food for them."

Pushing away the hand pulling his pants under the table, Zhou Chen didn't even look at Zhuang Tunan next to him.

You can say he is petty, vindictive, or revengeful. Anyway, today's meal is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He is planning to trick the old couple. There is no point in being polite to them.

Treat them in their own way!

If they are unhappy, I am happy!
