Chapter 1193: Birthday Banquet
Since the death of the old man, the hundred schools have basically been scattered. Although it is said that there is indeed no outstanding person to inherit political resources because of Baijia, Baiqian is inevitably lost because of her daughter's background and the fact that people are going to tea and cool.
And most of the assets of the hundred families, because the old man appointed Bai Qian to inherit. So 80% of Baijia's assets are still in the hands of Baiqian, but people's hearts are not something that can be said clearly from simple interests.
For example, now that the hundred families have been divided, most of the hundred families that have been separated, as well as those who used to always take benefits from the hundred families.
Although I still want to take benefits from Baijia. But the people who care about it feel that the family property has been less for them before, so they are resentful.
Although the room close to Baiqian is driven by interests, there has been a great change in my heart. Not to mention those who are a little more distant, it is appropriate to use them on them.
Now half of the hundred houses have fallen and become crooked-necked trees, so they are still bouncing around the trees, not only adding to the burden on the fallen trees. And always be ready to wait until the tree is completely down, so that you can leave.
"Brother Hai hasn't seen you for a long time, I heard that your business in Changxi has jumped to a new level this year. ”
"It's just a small improvement, and there's still a lot of room for improvement. ”
"Brother Chuan, how is the stock market recently. I heard that you have made a lot of money recently, can you bring your little brother? ”
"The stock market has been really good lately, so I'll find a place to talk about it later. ”
"Xiang Hai is also here, if you are too busy over there to run this trip, your uncle just has a birthday without so much trouble. ”
"It's not troublesome, I just came to Beijing for a meeting, and I won't delay my work. ”
The 100 villas at night are very lively, not to mention those relatives who are close to the family. It's just that hundreds of people can make a few tables.
Bai Qian's father, Bai Qiansong, is the eldest, and there is a younger brother and a younger sister below. The younger brother Bai Changsong is now the deputy head of the organization of the province of Chaun Sai, because of his personal ability and the sudden death of the old man Bai.
Although he has no possibility of going further, because of the convenience of his position. It seems that after the death of the hundred old men, the political resources of the hundred schools of thought that decayed in an instant were actually the ones who benefited the most.
Now 60 this year, he already realizes that he can't go any further. So I haven't tossed much in the past few years, but I want to carefully train my sons, but unfortunately both sons are in business and don't want to enter politics.
So while waiting for retirement to move up the ladder by half a level, he began to train his grandson. Compared with the aggressiveness of previous years, Baichang pine has looked a lot more modest in recent years.
And Bai Qian, the second uncle, has two sons and a daughter at home, both sons are married, and they also have children, and they also brought them over this time. Coupled with a daughter who is not married, their family alone almost needs to open a table.
In addition to this second uncle, Bai Qian also has an aunt Bai Chunlan, his aunt is a son and a daughter, and her son is also married. Plus Bai Qiansong's other cousins or something's family. Just looking at hundreds of families, it is definitely a big family, but it is a pity that the hearts of one family are not aligned now.
"Hey, this is An'er's fiancée, she's so beautiful. "The men were talking about business, and the women were talking about the family.
Bai'an, who is 35 years old this year, even if he is very unwilling. But I still decided to get married, and recently I was picking a date to get married.
The fiancée's name is Su Jingrou, who is only 28 years old this year, and she is not from Yanjing. However, her father's career is very good, and he has been transferred to Beijing to work for four years, and his performance has made him very satisfied. Therefore, this time the level of preparation for the release has been directly upgraded by one level, and the threshold of stepping into the main hall is not to mention, starting to dominate the party, and if you do well, the ministerial level is not a luxury.
However, this is a lady who is beyond the reach of ordinary people, and in front of the decaying hundred schools, in fact, it still feels that Su Jingrou is climbing.
After all, the hundred families were the number one families in Yanjing before, and the old man Bai was a deputy state-level existence at the beginning, and he was once in charge of the central and critical departments.
Although the old man has arrived, the highest position in the hundred families is now only the second uncle of Bai Qian, the deputy minister of Changxi Province. And now he is in the stage of waiting for retirement, and he doesn't look as good as Su Jingrou's father, a cadre who still has room for growth.
But the old man has just passed away a few years ago, and the rapid decline of the hundred families has made the hundred families feel very depressed. But the remnants of the old man can still take care of them, so for the eldest grandson of the hundred families to marry such a daughter of a small family who is at least two grades lower than the hundred families, the hundred families have different thoughts.
"Not only is she beautiful, but she is still a talented woman, but she came back from studying abroad, and she is also a doctor. I'm now a teacher at a university. ”
A group of women chatted together, but whether it was the woman's side or the group of men chatting not far away. Except for Bai Qian, who was sitting not far away and chatting briefly with her second uncle and aunt.
Although today is the birthday of Baiqian's father Bai Changsong, the big house of Baijia feels like it is not the protagonist. Especially what kind of cosmetics did Bai Qian get after retiring from the mobile high-rise.
makes this feeling more obvious today, for example, although the woman's side is discussing Bai'an's fiancée Su Jingrou. But with that kind of commenting tone, anyone could feel their contempt for Su Jingrou.
Not to mention the man's side, Bai Qian's second uncle Bai Changsong's two sons, Bai Hai and Bai Chuan are the absolute protagonists. Even Aunt Baiqian's son Xi Xianghai has a high status in the crowd.
After all, Xi Xianghai, who is just 32 years old this year, is already the deputy mayor of a prefecture-level city, although he is not yet a standing ranking. But it is already very good to have such an achievement at this age, and with the recent examination of Xi Xianghai, he is likely to further become the executive deputy mayor, and he is definitely a rising star.
On the other hand, Bai'an in the crowd, except for some people who can't interject when they can't chat with people in Baichuan. Few people spoke to him, even though it was his father's birthday, and this was Bai'an's home.
"I'm out and pick up someone. He glanced at his younger brother who was already a little annoyed between his eyebrows not far away, but he didn't dare to send it out. Looking at his father, who was smiling beside him, he was obviously stiff, but he had to smile.
Bai Qian suddenly felt that she had taken the initiative to step down from the position of mobile boss and sell the original shares of mobile before.
From a rational point of view, she didn't do anything wrong, after all, she understood the truth of her guilt. Before, she had to go to the top to stabilize the situation of the hundred families, but now that the hundred families have stabilized, she is still greedy for that position, and the final outcome will definitely not be too good.
Because with the rapid development of mobile, with the current power of Baijia, they are not qualified to keep that fat cake at all. The tone was snatched away and divided, it is better to get rid of it in advance in exchange for the interests that you can control, so that you can still leave some favors. So giving up that position was the right choice.
The choice is correct, but not many people understand. When she chose to resign before, Baijia almost exploded, and now she has no dazzling position. Her own room seemed to decline instantly, making her father and younger brother seem so aggrieved at this time, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.
"The guests are almost here, have you invited other friends?" Bai Chunlan looked at her niece and couldn't help asking.
Although there are a lot of guests here today, most of them are relatives. Because Bai Qiansong didn't want to celebrate his birthday before, many people took the initiative to congratulate him, and it was unreasonable not to hold a birthday banquet.
But it was determined in advance that it was a family dinner. In fact, the choice of this family banquet is also a helpless move, after all, after the death of the old man, the status of the hundred families in Yanjing plummeted.
With the current status of the hundred schools, those families who were as brilliant as the hundred schools and are still brilliant now are probably not likely to come to congratulate, or even whether to send a junior over. And those who are not as good as their own families come to congratulate, and they feel like they are slapping themselves in the face.
So after thinking about it, Bai Qiansong felt that it was good to hold a family banquet, so that those big families who claimed to be family banquets that Bai Qiansong wanted to come, even if he didn't come, he wouldn't be too embarrassed, and he had a fig leaf.
"Well, a friend of mine. Bai Qian nodded and walked outside.
This action attracted the attention of many people, although Baijia Dafang seemed to be a notch lower in an instant after Bai Qian took the initiative to give up that position.
But Bai Qian's prestige in the Bai family has not disappeared, especially the funds that Bai Qian is holding in her hands now make them very red.
It's just a pity that it's not good to go to real estate to make money with so much money, even if you go to find a relationship to contract a few mines. I have to do what cosmetics do, which makes many people prepare to see jokes with a sneer in their hearts.
At the same time, he is also waiting for an opportunity to wait until Baiqian completely fails. Baijia is once again in the battle for assets to see if he will take a sip of soup.
"What is Sister Baiqian going to do?" One of the women in the group couldn't help but ask when they saw Baiqian leaving, and it was Bairui, the daughter of Baiqian's second uncle, who spoke.
Speaking of Bairui, I have to say that Baijia's genes are indeed excellent, no matter what the ability is, at least the appearance is that the height of the man is good, the appearance is handsome, and the woman's face is delicate and tall.
For example, Bairui inherited his father's height and his mother's appearance, and although she is not outstanding among women, she is very conspicuous.
Coupled with a delicate face and a figure that is much more domineering than ordinary women, she is an absolute school flower on campus and an absolute goddess in society. Coupled with the family background, this is a proper white rich beauty.
So even if the hundred families are declining now, and her father Bai Changsong has no hope of waiting for retirement. But there is still no shortage of people who come to seek relatives, and there are still some excellent children in families with good family backgrounds.
Therefore, although she is inferior to Bai Qian in temperament, her status in the family and even in Yanjing is not as good as Bai Qian. But Bairui doesn't feel that she is worse than Baiqian, at least she guesses that she is 28 years old in terms of age, and Baiqian has already started to run four. In the past few years, not to mention asking for marriage, it is estimated that Bai Qian herself hates to marry.
"It looks like there's a guest coming. Someone couldn't help but speak, obviously hearing the conversation between Bai Chunlan and Bai Qian just now.
"Let Sister Baiqian pick it up in person, it must be the young talent of that family. ”
"Not necessarily, after all, this is a family dinner. Someone chuckled.
Immediately, the expressions on many people's faces instantly became wonderful, after all, this Bai Qiansong, the nominal head of hundreds of families, everyone knows why the birthday banquet is a family banquet.
"If you don't want to stay here and no one invites you to come, you can get out. Bai'an, who had always been gloomy, finally couldn't help it.
"Shut up. Bai Qiansong roared angrily and waited for his son.
He was also very depressed at this time, and even felt that the decision to hold this birthday party was simply the most wrong idea. But in front of these outsiders, he must maintain the face of his big house.
Although he actually agrees with what his son said in his heart, let these people get out of here.
"Don't be angry, boss, Bai'an is still young. Bai Changsong hurriedly comforted his eldest brother.
"That's it, that's it, it's your birthday party, don't be angry. But I don't want you to talk less, it's not just a guest who came today, it's also a relative, how can you speak?" Bai Chunlan also comforted her eldest brother next to her, and scolded Bai An at the same time.
On the surface, it seems that the relationship between the hundreds of families in the previous life is very good, but what it is actually like can be seen from the smiles or mocking expressions on the faces of everyone present.
"Let's talk, then. Bai'an's face was red and hot, and he turned and walked into the house, he didn't want to stay here for a moment.
"Stop. Bai Qiansong roared again, his son didn't let him worry at all.
People in their thirties are still so willful, today is your Lao Tzu's birthday party, even if you feel aggrieved, who can you show your face on the spot?
