Chapter Thirty-Six: Such a Relative (Asking for Recommendations)
On the evening of the 8th, Dongping Hotel.
Dongping Hotel should be regarded as the most high-end hotel in the county, and the consumption level is definitely not low.
Today, the Li family set up a wine to entertain guests, but Li Dong's parents, who have always been thrifty, booked a banquet at Dongping Hotel.
According to Cao Fang's words, anything can be saved, and this kind of face-raising thing must not be saved.
At this time, Li Dongzheng and his mother stood at the door of the hotel to greet guests, and their faces were paralyzed after smiling all night.
Seeing another acquaintance coming, Li Dong hurriedly smiled and said, "Uncle Wang is good, Aunt Chen is good!"
These are all vendors in the vegetable market, and Li Dong knows almost all of them.
Most of the people who came to eat and drink this time were vendors in the market, and there were also some old customers who often bought vegetables and came to have a glass of wine when they heard the news, but there were few relatives.
Cao Fang and Li Chengyuan have few relatives, and Li Dong's grandmother's house is even more far away in Guizhou Province, and it takes two days to take the train, so it is too far to be notified.
"Yo, Dongzi is really promising! Jiang University is a famous university......
The two who had just arrived praised Li Dong as usual, Li Dong had heard these words no less than ten times tonight, but he still accepted everyone's praise with a smile.
As soon as the others went upstairs, Li Dong exhaled and said to Cao Fang: "Mom, there is no one left, let's go up if there is no one." ”
Cao Fang looked at her watch, it was almost half past seven, and almost everyone who should have come came.
Then he said, "Let's go up first, it's almost ......."
"Cao Fang, why are you here?"
Cao Fang paused, turned to look at the person who spoke, and his face suddenly drooped.
Li Dong also glanced back at this time, and when he saw the person coming, his face was darker than Cao Fang's.
"Big brother, what a coincidence, when did you go back to Dongping?" Cao Fang smiled reluctantly.
Li Chenghui held his briefcase, straightened his stomach, and said with his head held high: "I just came back in the morning, I invited someone to dinner, and I haven't said why you are here?"
"I ......"
Li Dong really can't get used to Li Chenghui's arrogant appearance, although this person is still his nominal uncle.
Seeing that his mother was speechless at this moment, Li Dong unceremoniously interjected: "Do we have to ask my uncle for dinner?"
Li Chenghui's face darkened suddenly, and he snorted heavily.
Seeing Li Chenghui's ugly face, Cao Fang was afraid that he would have a seizure on the spot, so he pulled Li Dong and said with a smile: "The child is not sensible, don't worry about him, big brother." ”
"What about your good son, the second one?"
Li Chenghui was a little unable to get off the stage by Li Dongding, so he pouted and asked about Li Chengyuan.
Cao Fang heard that Li Chenghui was also going to eat here, so she knew that she couldn't hide it, and when she saw Li Chenghui asking, she had to say, "Cheng Yuan is entertaining guests upstairs." ”
"Yo, you two still have money to go to the Dongping Hotel for dinner?
Li Chenghui touched his stomach, his glasses widened, and his expression that you even have money to eat here made Li Dong almost blow up his lungs.
Just as he was about to speak out, Cao Fang pulled Li Dong's shirt and reluctantly replied: "Where did we get rich, this is not Dongzi was admitted to university, and today I invite someone to eat and drink, I can't be too provincial." ”
"Got into college?"
Li Chenghui obviously didn't remember that Li Dong was taking the college entrance examination this year, but he took it for granted, and said with a straight face: "Why don't I know about the university entrance examination?
It's not that he wants to come for a drink, but it's one thing to notify him or not, and if he doesn't notify him, he doesn't take him seriously.
He is the boss of the Li family, Li Chengyuan didn't call him but didn't give him face!
Cao Fang didn't know what to say, after all, he didn't notify anyone, but it happened to happen.
Li Dong said mockingly: "How dare we inform the uncle, I'm afraid that we will be kicked out before we even get to your door." ”
"Hmph! I've been reading books for so many years and I'm still doing this! I'm not going to make a difference when I'm admitted to college! I don't care about you, just like your father, I expect him to teach anything good!"
Li Chenghui's face was gloomy, he was a face-saving person, and with so many people around, he was not easy to have a seizure.
"My dad sits upright and works hard to earn money to support his family, is there anything that is not to be seen?"
Hearing Li Chenghui talk about his father several times, Li Donghuo couldn't suppress the pressure, and the scenes in his memory flashed in his mind again and again.
As the saying goes, blood is thicker than water, and broken bones are still connected to tendons!
Even if there is a gap between the brothers of the Li family, it will not let Li Dong, a junior, contradict Li Chenghui three times and twice.
Putting aside the dispute between the two brothers of the Li family before, after all, Li Dong's position must be on his father's side, and it cannot be said that it is completely objective and fair.
But Li Dong knows that Li Chenghui is not indifferent and old-fashioned on the surface, but a real cold-blooded animal.
To this day, he can't forget that Li Chengyuan was seriously ill and lying in the hospital, and Li Chenghui, the boss, didn't even look at it.
Not thousands of miles away, Li Chenghui's home is in Qingyang, less than two hours' drive from Dongping!
In the later stage when Li Chengyuan and Cao Fang were seriously ill, the family's savings were used up and the house was sold.
If Li Chenghui is a person looking for food in the soil, he Li Dong can not care about it, after all, it is not easy for anyone.
But he is a big boss of a construction company, and his net worth is not tens of millions, but millions must be there.
My nephew came to borrow money for my brother's medical treatment, and he didn't borrow much, only 20,000 or 30,000 yuan, and he wouldn't be a dime.
But Li Chenghui did it!
not only did it, but also did it thoroughly, and didn't even glance at the funeral of his younger brother and sister-in-law.
You must know that Li Chenghui is Li Chengyuan's only brother, Li Dong's grandparents have passed away a long time ago, so no matter how you say this kind of thing, you have to help your nephew.
But Li Chenghui didn't, and even none of his family came over to take a look!
So cold, so ruthless, I'm afraid no one will believe it.
Of course, there's a reason for that.
It is said that according to Li Dong's cousin, their family traveled abroad and had no time to come back, and this is the reason!
The younger brother and sister-in-law are seriously ill and dying, and the eldest brother is still in the mood to take the whole family abroad for a leisurely time, how cold-blooded!
If Li Chengyuan did something to be sorry for him, it would be fine, but Li Chengyuan really didn't have anything to say to him, the eldest brother.
It's ridiculous that this kind of person still expects Li Dong to treat him as a relative.
Li Chenghui's face was blue, and he was hit by his nephew several times, and this face was lost.
He didn't have anything to say to Li Dong, he knew that Li Dong was sharp-tongued, so he immediately pointed at Cao Fang and shouted: "This is the good son you taught? That's how you taught him, there is no tutor!"
"Who doesn't have a tutor knows who knows!"
Li Dong sneered, in his heart, Li Chenghui was not even as good as a stranger, he was not used to him!
"Bastard thing!"
Li Chenghui's face turned white with anger, and he pointed at Li Dong and scolded.
“……”
When Li Chengyuan rushed over after receiving the news, Li Dongdu almost had to fight Li Chenghui.
If it weren't for Cao Fang pulling on the side, it would have been possible to beat Li Chenghui with Li Dong's temper.
It wasn't until Li Chengyuan came that Li Dong forced his anger and closed his mouth, Li Chenghui didn't care, his father's face always had to be taken into account.
Li Chengyuan hurriedly compensated Li Chenghui, who had a gloomy face, and then turned his head and reprimanded Li Dong fiercely: "Isn't it okay to compensate your uncle, can you endure it?"
Li Dong held his neck and kept silent, being able to ignore Li Chenghui was already the limit of what he could do, and he would not apologize to Li Chenghui if he was killed.
Li Chengyuan knew that his son was stubborn, and he didn't deal with Li Chenghui since he was a child, and now was not the time to preach, so he turned to Li Chenghui and smiled: "Big brother, Dongzi is not sensible, I will definitely clean him up when I go back." ”
After all, today is a happy wine, Li Chengyuan was afraid that Li Chenghui would not give up, and explained: "I didn't inform my eldest brother of the wine, I originally thought that you were busy in Qingyang, and it would be troublesome to come back, so I didn't tell you." ”
"Now you just go back to Dongping, and the banquet hasn't started yet, big brother, go up and have two drinks." ”
"it! I'm missing your two glasses of wine!"
Li Chenghui didn't give Li Chengyuan a good face, and when Li Chengyuan finished speaking, he scolded with a dark face, turned around and entered the private room of the hotel.
Li Chengyuan's face was a little embarrassed, and Li Dong said disapprovingly when he saw this: "Why bother with him, we won't eat without him!"
After that, he pulled Cao Fang upstairs, anyway, he didn't like his father's attitude towards Li Chenghui, people don't treat you as a relative, you will only be hurt more if you treat him as a relative.
Li Chengyuan sighed, shook his head and did not explain.
How can you say that Li Chenghui is also his eldest brother, he is such a brother, can he really not recognize it?
