Chapter 8 Chinese New Year

Considering that all the guests came today, Zhang Wei euphemistically said that he was here to help, not the chef of the hotel.

But Liu Bin said: "Young man, you have such a good skill, it's a waste not to be a chef, so, how about I give you a monthly salary of 15,000, and then help you pay five insurances and one housing fund?"

Most of the people who do a big business will not give up easily, and the same is true for Liu Bin, in his opinion, this era is not without people who can stick to their hearts, but most people have to give in in front of sufficient interests, and he thinks that Zhang Wei is also such a person.

"Oh, Mr. Liu, how are you ...... Hey, Yonggui, when did you come here, and Weiwei, what are you doing here?" Liu Jianguo went to the next room to toast just now, and when he went back, he found that Liu Bin was gone, and when he saw that the car was still there, he was afraid that something would happen to Liu Bin after drinking too much, so he hurriedly came out to look for it.

Zhang Wei said: "Uncle Li, this Mr. Liu plans to let me go to his house to be a chef, but I am refusing." ”

"Ouch, I'm Mr. Liu. "Li Jianguo knows that Liu Bin is reckless, Zhang Wei is something that ordinary people can invite? Don't say that if you go to your house to be a chef, you just let someone go to you to be the general manager, and people may not be able to look down on it. I couldn't take care of it at the moment, and said in Liu Bin's ear: "Mr. Liu, you are rude." I can't say that there are a lot of people in the house just now, this is not an ordinary person, you know the Dafangshan project, it is his next, called Zhang Wei, and the middle-aged man next to him is his father Zhang Yonggui, the accountant of our village. ”

Liu Bin's pupils shrank when he heard this, as one of the few wealthy businessmen in the city, how could he not know that the Dafangshan project did not know that this investment was nearly ten times his net worth, and he invited someone to be a chef, which was not a bit rude.

Thinking of this, Liu Bin showed a wry smile on his face, and hurriedly said: "Oh, this is really an eye that doesn't know Mount Tai, it turns out that Boss Zhang, I hope Boss Zhang won't be surprised when it's rude." ”

Zhang Wei is not the kind of person who is cautious, so he said: "No, I am very happy that Mr. Liu likes my cooking." I'm sorry, but I have something to say to my father, so you guys are busy and we'll talk when you're free. ”

At this time, Zhang Wei just wanted to go home and experiment to see if cooking for a long time was helpful to improve the overall quality of his body, and he didn't care what others thought, so he took his father back to the old house.

Back at home, Zhang Yonggui said to Zhang Wei: "Weiwei, I just asked you for something to discuss with you. ”

"What's the matter?"

Zhang Yonggui said: "Last night the town held a meeting, after assigning the poverty alleviation task, the county secretary Zhao talked to me, which means that he wants me to be the mayor of the town, and the current mayor is old, and it is estimated that he will be transferred to the county to support the elderly, so I want to hear what you mean." ”

"Hehe, yes, I didn't expect that Dad, you have worked at the grassroots level all your life, and you are finally going to be promoted. Zhang Wei teased.

"Isn't the town still grassroots, I also understand, this is your light, tell me, what do you think?"

Zhang Wei thought for a moment and asked, "What did my mother say?"

"Your mother is mainly worried that after I sit in this position, there will be anything to do with the Dafangshan project in the future, and I am afraid that the above will use me to pressure you. ”

"Hey, there's no need for this concern, the contract is in black and white, and the project is top-down, and there are variables

Unlikely. Zhang Wei first dispelled his parents' concerns, and then said, "Dad, what do you think of yourself?"

Zhang Yonggui's old face turned red, hesitated for a moment, and whispered, "I want to try." ”

"Then try it, it's just a mayor, and you'll be fine with your skills. Zhang Wei encouraged his father.

"You kid put a high hat on me, I know a few pounds and taels myself, I just think this is a good opportunity, so I want to try it, if it's ......"

Zhang Yonggui didn't finish speaking, the mobile phone rang, picked it up and listened, it was the village party secretary who called, saying that he was half-drunk and why this person was gone, and asked him to hurry back to the wedding banquet, Zhang Yonggui agreed and asked Zhang Wei if he would go to the Li family's wedding banquet, Zhang Wei wanted to cook alone, so he lied, saying that he was a little tired and would not go, and rest at home for a while. Zhang Yonggui was not reluctant, and left the old mansion after an explanation.

As soon as his father left, Zhang Wei immediately ran to the kitchen and began to toss, an hour later, Zhang Wei made nearly ten time-consuming and laborious dishes, Zhang Wei immediately called the heart of the elf with hope, but unfortunately the result disappointed him, this time there was no improvement, the reason is that the interval between the two cooking is too close, there is a suspicion of relying on cooking to improve himself, so there is no effect.

Looking at a large table of fragrant dishes, Zhang Wei suddenly turned his grief and anger into appetite and began to eat wildly.

In the afternoon, Zhang Wei teased the two puppies for a while, called Zhang Shilan for a while, and finally made a call to Zhang Tianhe, not that he wanted to go back to Yanjing, but that three months had passed, and he was idle at home, so he wanted to ask if he could do a live broadcast. Regarding Zhang Wei's question, Zhang Tianhe said that he had no authority, and he wanted to ask the leader and would reply to Zhang Wei as soon as possible.

In the evening, before Zhang Yonggui was ready to go back to his home in the town, he came to the old house again, followed by Zhang Yonggui and Li Jianguo, Li Xin and Li Xin's daughter-in-law Xu Lingling, the Li family came to express their gratitude, and also gave Zhang Wei a big red envelope, which contained 3,000 yuan.

Zhang Wei didn't accept this money, but Zhang Wei's father Zhang Yonggui finally persuaded Zhang Wei to accept it, this is not a problem of money, but that you have helped others, and people thank you according to the rules of the countryside, and it is inappropriate for you not to accept it, so Zhang Wei also accepted it. Li Xin's family just got married, and there are still a lot of things at home, so the Li family of three didn't sit for long before saying goodbye and leaving, Zhang Yonggui waited for the Li family to leave, and told Zhang Wei to go back to the town for a trip to his home tomorrow, seeing that the New Year is coming, the house needs to be cleaned, and a lot of things have to be purchased, all of which are things, and he has to go to the county in the past two days, so he hopes that Zhang Wei will go home to help Li Juan do some work.

The next day was the New Year, Zhang Wei closed the water and electricity gates of the old house, locked the doors and windows, and drove back to the town with the remaining meat, vegetables and two puppies.

When she got home, Li Juan saw that Zhang Wei had two dogs and complained a little, but Zhang Wei had already brought the dogs back, and Li Juan also nagged a few words, and then teased the two puppies to play. In the next few days, Zhang Wei didn't wait for Zhang Tianhe's call, he had nothing to do every day, except for going abroad a few times to go shopping, and stayed at home the rest of the time, the only difference is that Li Juan doesn't have to cook now, this matter was contracted by Zhang Wei, so the lunch and dinner of the Zhang family these days are much richer.

A week passed in a flash, and during this period, Zhang Shilan, Xu Yanan, Liu Nan, and several dormitories

Friends have called, either chatting, such as Zhang Shilan and Liu Nan, or asking where Zhang Wei is for the New Year and when he will return to Yanjing, such as Xu Yanan and Liu Tianqing.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhang Wei went back to the village with his parents in the morning, one to visit his grandfather's grave, the second to go to his uncle's house to see his grandmother, and the third to paste couplets and blessing characters to the old mansion.

After doing these two things, Zhang Wei's family returned to town and began to prepare for tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve. In Zhang Wei's hometown, dumplings must be eaten on Chinese New Year's Eve, and couplets are pasted in the evening and firecrackers are set off, so the family of three comes home to rest for a while, and begins to mix noodles and stuffing, in previous years, the job of adjusting the stuffing was done by Zhang Yonggui, but after the old two tasted Zhang Wei's craftsmanship, they unanimously decided that this year's dumpling filling was adjusted by Zhang Wei, and Zhang Yonggui and Li Juan came to start.

After dinner, the family sat in the living room early, waiting to watch the Spring Festival Gala, whether this party looks good or not is another matter, but a variety show can become a convention for the New Year, which is also not bad. As in previous years, the Spring Festival Gala was once again disappointing, Zhang Wei was almost on his mobile phone with Zhang Shilan and a few friends in the game of grabbing red envelopes, except for a few language programs, Zhang Wei didn't watch much of the other programs at all.

When the bell rang at zero o'clock, Zhang Wei's WeChat, text messages, and phone calls did not stop, and the mobile phone kept ringing. Now the state does not let it go, saying that there is pollution, so now there is almost no cannon sound on Chinese New Year's Eve, except for a few sporadic people who dare to commit crimes against the wind, there is silence around, there is no big difference from usual, the only difference is that the lights of the town are bright, as for the taste of the year, what is it? Even the New Year's Eve and firecrackers are gone, so what is the atmosphere of the New Year.

After the Spring Festival Gala ended, Zhang Wei's family of three went to bed, and they didn't plan to keep the New Year.

Early in the morning of the first day of the new year, Zhang Wei's family filled the carriage with gifts, and drove back to the village, now Zhang Wei's grandmother is alive, and she lives in the uncle's house in the county at the end of the year. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and Zhang Yonggui's brothers want to take their families to kowtow to the old lady, so they went back to the village early in the morning and came to Zhang Yongcai's house.

As soon as they entered the gate, Zhang Wei's uncle and sister-in-law warmly greeted them and welcomed Zhang Wei's family to their home.

"Big brother, haven't they come yet?" Zhang Yonggui asked when he entered the house and found that only his own family had come.

"No, it's estimated to be ninety o'clock, our sister-in-law, you don't know yet, it's very inky when you go out. Zhang Yongcai replied while pouring water, and after finishing speaking, he said to his daughter-in-law: "Cuifen, you go and tell Xiaojie to get up, what time is it, his second uncle's family can't afford to come, and he is not polite at all." ”

Xiaojie, whose name is Zhang Zhijie, is Zhang Wei's cousin, who just entered his freshman year this year, studied averagely, and did not get into any 985 and 211, so he found a private college in Chang'an to study computer management and application. I heard that I arrived at home yesterday afternoon, so Zhang Wei's family didn't see anyone when they came yesterday morning.

Zhang Wei's sister-in-law heard that Zhang Yongcai was unhappy, so she hurriedly went into the house to tell Zhang Zhijie to get up, and Zhang Wei's family accompanied the old lady to chat in the hall.

As soon as we chatted for a few words, I heard an impatient voice coming from the room, "Oh, it's not annoying, it's finally a holiday, what's wrong with sleeping?"
