298 Old Man Yang's enthusiasm
298 Old Man Yang's enthusiasm
Xu Mo said casually: "Give your grandfather's birthday gift." ”
"What?" Xu Nuanyang couldn't help but be stunned, then looked at the things in Xu Mo's hand a few times, and said with a strange expression, "Xu Mo, what you sent...... It's really special......"
The two walked inside while talking, Zhang Zhixing followed behind with his female companion with great interest, Wang Hui stood at the door for a few seconds, and then walked in with a gloomy face.
Walking into the lobby of the villa, I saw that it had been arranged into a spacious banquet hall, with about ten round tables, each table was basically full, looking lively but not crowded.
Xu Mo thought that there would be many people on the old man's 100th birthday, but he didn't expect it to be like this, which was a bit unexpected.
seemed to have guessed Xu Mo's doubts, Xu Nuanyang next to him whispered: "At noon, I just invited some important people, most of whom were named by my grandfather himself, and there was another one in the evening, which was hosted by my uncle and chartered a big restaurant in the city." ”
Xu Mo nodded slightly, and then raised his eyebrows, because he found that everyone in the living room stopped talking and turned his head to look at him.
The reason why everyone turned their heads was not him, but because a person at the main table inside had just stood up and walked over with a smile on his face - and that person was today's old birthday star, Xu Nuanyang's grandfather.
The birthday banquet is about to start, and before, Yang Jingtian had personally greeted a few people, all of whom were old men, but now he got up again to greet him, but a strange young man came in at the door, which made everyone present secretly surprised.
"Mr. Xu. Welcome, welcome, ......."
Yang Jingtian walked in front of Xu Mo with a polite attitude that others thought was incredible. Greet with a smile. And everyone can see that his appearance is not pretentious at all, it is completely from the heart.
Xu Mo felt the astonishment cast by more than a hundred pairs of eyes, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said politely to Yang Jingtian: "The old man is too polite, how are you doing lately?"
"Good, good...... Hehe......" Yang Jingtian nodded with a smile, originally wanting to step forward and pull Xu Mo's hand. But seeing that Xu Mo's hands were not empty, he frowned slightly and glanced at a waiter next to him, "Why don't you help Mr. Xu take the things?"
The waiter was startled, and hurriedly walked up to pick up the food box in Xu Mo's hand, Xu Mo smiled and said, "No, these are all going to be used in a while, I'll just help the old man get it to the table." ”
"Oh?" Yang Jingtian was slightly stunned, looked carefully at the things in Xu Mo's hand, and smiled. "Okay, Mr. Xu, please come in. There's just one seat over there. ”
Saying that, he turned around and led Xu Mo inside, and it seemed that he wanted Xu Mo to sit at the main table inside.
And hearing his words, the people sitting at the main table inside couldn't help but look strange for a while, and what did they say in their hearts, 'There is just one seat', it is clear that you asked to keep it from the beginning, and it turned out that it was reserved for this person?!
I didn't expect the old man to be so enthusiastic, Xu Mo sighed helplessly, didn't say much, followed the other party inside, and when he passed the table near the main table, Xu Nuanyang turned around and sat in, Xu Mo glanced at it, and saw that Xu Bing was also at that table, and the Yunjin book he had seen that day was also there, and there were many middle-aged people, a few of whom were seen in the hospital, Yang Jingtian's children.
When Xu Mo's eyes swept over a table in the corner, he also saw a person waving to him, it turned out to be Yang Rongkang, his table was full of young men and women, Xu Mo didn't know him, but they seemed to be a little excited, looking at Xu Mo whispering.
And among the people at the main table, Xu Mo actually saw two familiar faces: one was Qin Jiuzhen, and the other was Wei Qiuhua, director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
Seeing the two of them, Xu Mo greeted, "Old Mr. Qin, Director Wei." ”
Qin Jiuzhen was a little surprised and said, "Xu Mo, I didn't expect you to come too." ”
Wei Qiuhua smiled and said, "Hehe, Xu Mo, you have several pennants in our bureau, when will you come to get them back?"
Yang Jingtian said unexpectedly: "Oh, it turns out that Xiao Qin and Xiao Wei also know Mr. Xu?"
His name is Qin Jiuzhen and Wei Qiuhua 'Xiao Qin' and 'Xiao Wei', which naturally has no problem in terms of age and seniority of both parties, but he is called Xu Mo 'Mr. Xu', which makes people feel awkward when they are put together.
Xu Mo was a little embarrassed and said, "For some reason, I was fortunate enough to know Director Wei and Mr. Qin. ”
"Hehe, since you know each other, it's easy to do, I'm still worried that you won't be used to it if you are strangers Mr. Xu. Yang Jingtian smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, please sit down, don't stand and talk." ”
Xu Mo looked at a table of people, except for the younger Wei Qiuhua, almost all of them were more than half a hundred old people, and all of them didn't look simple, they were looking at him with surprise and scrutiny at the moment, he was a little uncomfortable and said, "This...... I'm afraid it's not right for me to sit here, right?"
Yang Jingtian said: "What's inappropriate? You are the most qualified person to sit here, you're welcome, sit down." ”
Hey, hey...... Old man, your words are a little offended!!
Xu Mo was secretly speechless, noticing that the faces of many people sitting there seemed to be a little unnatural, he knew that the old man might have said this unintentionally, and he had no other meaning, but it was really easy for people to misunderstand......
Seeing the old man's resolute attitude, Xu Mo couldn't refuse anymore, so he could only nod and walk to the edge of the empty seat, then put the food box in his left hand on the ground, and put the wine jar in his right hand on the table, but then he was slightly stunned, because he saw that there was also a wine jar on the opposite side of the table, which had not yet been opened, and it was larger than his wine jar......
Xu Mo retracted his gaze, patted the food box beside him, and said to Yang Jingtian: "The old man has a big birthday, the younger generation has prepared some light gifts, here is a set of medicinal dishes that I personally cooked, if the old man doesn't dislike it, just try it." ”
His words made Yang Jingtian and the others stunned, it was the first time they had seen this person who had brought vegetables to pay homage to his birthday, only Qin Jiuzhen was stunned for a moment, and a trace of brilliance flashed in his eyes.
Yang Jingtian smiled: "Mr. Xu is really troubled...... In that case, I'm not welcome the old man. ”
As he spoke, he turned to the waiter next to him and said, "Come here, remove these dishes from the table!"
Several waiters removed the appetizers on the table with strange expressions, while Xu Mo had already opened the food box and began to serve food outside.
After the food box was opened, the eyes of the people in front of them lit up, because they smelled a strong aroma of vegetables, and it was very special, and there was no fragrance of vegetables in their memories that could match this taste.
Xu Mo kept serving food from the food box, and after a while, the table was almost full, a total of seven dishes, and all kinds of dishes.
