Chapter Seventy-One: Family Dinner
In the afternoon of the same day, because he wanted to meet Chen Feng's family and relatives, Zhang Xiaoran naturally attached great importance to it, and deliberately put on a set of off-the-shoulder dresses hand-sewn by famous Yanjing designers.
This dress is usually worn by Zhang Xiaoran when attending extremely important balls or gatherings of high-end people.
Although it is said to be an off-the-shoulder dress, it is not as exaggerated and gorgeous as some evening dresses, the dress only exposes Zhang Xiaoran's small half of the snow-white shoulders, the neckline is only to Zhang Xiaoran's collarbone, and the middle end of the gift is a waist design, and the hem is a pleated skirt pattern that just covers Zhang Xiaoran's knees.
"Wow, Xiaoran, you're so beautiful." Even Chen Feng, after seeing Zhang Xiaoran's dress for the first time, he couldn't help but sigh: "If you want to go to dinner with my family like this, I estimate that the family will definitely oppose the two of us at that time." ”
"Huh?" Hearing Chen Feng's words, Zhang Xiaoran said nervously: "It's not good to show your shoulders, or I'll change my body, you wait for me." ”
As he spoke, Zhang Xiaoran turned around and was about to enter the community again.
"Wait." Chen Feng blocked Zhang Xiaoran and explained: "The problem is not with you, it's me." You're dressed so beautifully, I'm afraid my family will say I'm not worthy of you. ”
"Cut, you scared me, besides, you didn't deserve me in the first place." Hearing Chen Feng's words, Zhang Xiaoran breathed a sigh of relief, and then made a joke to Chen Feng coquettishly.
"Okay, you're a beauty, so shouldn't our big beauty go with me to my mother-in-law's house." Chen Feng joked while pulling Zhang Xiaoran into the taxi that was already waiting at the entrance of the community.
……
Although Zhang Xiaoran has participated in many high-end celebrity dinners and dances in Yanjing, and Chen Feng also told Zhang Xiaoran in advance that he would have dinner with his family tonight, Zhang Xiaoran was still very nervous along the way.
In fact, Zhang Xiaoran also knew that this kind of family meal together was not comparable to the dinner and dance party he attended, but he didn't know why Zhang Xiaoran was nervous in his heart.
Along the way, Chen Feng kept comforting Zhang Xiaoran, and even deliberately told a few jokes in order to liven up the atmosphere, but the effect could basically be said to be zero, and Zhang Xiaoran was still full of apprehension and uneasiness.
At about seven o'clock in the evening, Chen Feng took Zhang Xiaoran's hand and came to the booked private room, pushed open the door, and only Chen Zhanping and Wu Fanghua were in the room.
Chen Feng greeted his parents in advance, and when he saw Zhang Xiaoran coming, the second elder was not surprised, but his mother Wu Fanghua was very happy, stood up from her seat and strode over, and said with a very appreciative face: "Xiaofeng, this is what you said about Zhang Xiaoran, right?" Xiaoran is really beautiful, compared to my son, my son can't even look at it. ”
Chen Feng rolled his eyes helplessly, and smiled at Zhang Xiaoran: "Look, you still don't believe what I just said, do you believe it?" ”
"Stinky boy, what bad things are you saying about your mother." Gently slapped Chen Feng, Wu Fanghua asked with a smile.
"No, no, no...... How dare I say bad things about my mother. Chen Feng pretended to be very scared and hurriedly waved his hand and said.
Zhang Xiaoran, who was still nervous, was also a lot more relaxed by Wu Fanghua and Chen Feng's trouble, and greeted Wu Fanghua first with a red face, and then greeted Chen Zhanping.
At this time, Wu Fanghua also seemed to see that Zhang Xiaoran was still a little apprehensive in his heart, smiled and took Zhang Xiaoran's hand and asked him to sit down next to him, and then said: "Xiaoran, don't worry, today is an ordinary dinner, we are all in favor of you and Chen Feng making friends, today is Chen Feng's elders to meet, it's okay." ”
Zhang Xiaoran, who was already a lot more relaxed in his heart, listened to Wu Fanghua's words, and his heart suddenly relaxed completely.
As for Chen Feng, because Zhang Xiaoran was pulled by his mother to talk about his daily routine, he could only find a seat by himself and sit down silently.
Ignoring Chen Feng, Wu Fanghua continued to hold Zhang Xiaoran's hand, looked at the other party and asked, "Xiaoran, you and Chen Feng should be in the same grade, right?" What are the results of this year's college entrance examination? Satisfied? ”
Zhang Xiaoran glanced at Chen Feng, pursed his lips and smiled: "It was originally better than Chen Feng, but I made rapid progress in the last semester, and this time I scored 723 points." ”
"Look, this score is ...... than my son" Wu Fanghua subconsciously wanted to say that this score was higher than Chen Feng, but after thinking about it, he found that his son had a full score in the exam, so he changed his words and said: "Look at it, Xiaoran is beautiful, and her academic performance is so good, and then look at my Xiaofeng, I don't know how many good deeds I have done in my previous life to find such a good girlfriend." ”
Listening to Wu Fanghua's words, Chen Feng understood, even if Zhang Xiaoran told his mother that he scored zero in the test, it is estimated that Wu Fanghua would be thinking of an excuse to come Chen Feng pulled into the water, this feels obvious, that is, his mother Wu Fanghua likes Zhang Xiaoran more than himself.
There was even a moment when Chen Feng had the illusion that it seemed that the tragedy of having no one to take care of after returning home from school during the May Day holiday would be staged again today.
Shaking his head helplessly, Chen Feng once again took out his mobile phone and flipped through the novel.
The family of three chatted with Zhang Xiaoran for a while, and the door of the private room was pushed open again, and the first to arrive was the grandfather and uncle's family.
Usually the uncle and the sister-in-law's family are very close, because of this relationship, even the uncle himself went to his uncle's company some time ago to become the financial director.
Compared with the income of the previous job, the uncle's monthly salary has not been said, and even the content of the work is much easier, because of this, the aunt knows that Liu Shou's family looks down on Chen Zhanping's family very much, and naturally the aunt also looks down on Chen Feng's family.
But what they didn't expect was that at noon today, Chen Zhanping actually called and said that Chen Feng had taken the college entrance examination top score, and he had a full score, because of this incident, even if the eldest aunt looked at Chen Feng's family unpleasantly, she would not be too obvious.
No, as soon as she entered the box, the eldest aunt said with a hypocritical smile on her face: "Sister Fanghua, I didn't see it, Chen Feng really won glory for our family." ”
"The child worked hard to revise during this time, but this result really didn't surprise us." Wu Fanghua is honest, but said with a simple smile.
"Then this college entrance examination champion should have a lot of money, right?" The eldest aunt nodded first, and then her eyes flashed with a gleam and asked.
"It's not clear yet, but today we just learned about it."
"I've heard that last year's college entrance examination champion province, the Education Bureau, and the school had a series of awards, and it seems that there are almost more than 100,000, and this time Xiaofeng will definitely have more rewards than this for a full score, and it is conservatively estimated that there will be about 200,000 yuan, which can be the top brother and sister-in-law, how many years of your salary." The eldest aunt said with envy in her eyes.
Looking at the greedy look in the eldest aunt's eyes, Chen Feng felt a little disgusted in his heart, if it was a simple force, Chen Feng could understand it, but in order to get closer to the sister-in-law's family, the eldest aunt could be said to be obedient to her.
Because of this, the eldest aunt almost never had contact with Chen Feng's family before, but today when she heard that she won the top prize in the college entrance examination and had a monetary reward, she seemed to be a different person when she spoke.
This kind of relative, in Chen Feng's eyes, don't do it!
As she spoke, the eldest aunt's eyes turned to Zhang Xiaoran between Wu Fanghua and Chen Feng, and when she saw the girl who was not ordinary in dress or temperament, the eldest aunt was stunned for a moment and then asked in surprise: "Who is this?" ”
"Hello Auntie, I'm Chen Feng's girlfriend Zhang Xiaoran." After communicating with Chen Feng's family for a long time just now, the tension in Zhang Xiaoran's heart was also relieved a lot, and this time when he saw Chen Feng's aunt's question, he stood up and introduced himself.
Seeing such a beautiful girl introducing herself generously, and she was also Chen Feng's girlfriend, the eldest aunt was completely dumbfounded.
I remember that Chen Feng was still the bottom of the whole school at the last family gathering, and he couldn't even get into college, but this time, not only did he get the top prize in the province, but he also got a girlfriend, this girl named Zhang Xiaoran is still so beautiful, judging from the way she dresses, the family is definitely not ordinary, and for a while, the sister-in-law's heart kept sighing why Chen Feng's luck was so good.
More jealousy, of course!
At this time, the eldest aunt's youngest son also glanced at Zhang Xiaoran, and said in a crisp voice: "Mom, Brother Chen Feng's girlfriend is so beautiful, I also want to find one like this." ”
"Go aside." Seeing her son say this, the eldest aunt first scolded her son, and then said: "Stinky boy, you dare to talk about girlfriends at your age, you first learn from your brother Chen Feng how to improve your grades, you see that one exam in the third year of high school can bring hundreds of thousands of income to the family, you, don't say half of Chen Feng, even if it's one-third." ”
Pouting his lips, the eldest aunt's youngest son said in a dissatisfied tone: "Mom is so fickle, last time she said that I would be able to get half of Sister Xiaofei's exam, but this time it will become one-third of Brother Chen Feng's." ”
"Haha......"
Hearing the words of the eldest aunt and youngest son, Chen Feng's grandparents, who were already sitting on the upper seat, couldn't help laughing.
As for Chen Zhanping and Wu Fanghua, they echoed on the side, but the eldest aunt's family had a slightly embarrassed look.
"Come on, Xiaofeng, this time you really fight for your grandparents, our family hasn't produced a champion yet, I didn't expect it to be a perfect champion as soon as it came out." Chen Feng's grandfather saw that everyone was joking, so he took out a thick red envelope and handed it to Chen Feng and said: "Xiaofeng, you fight for our old Chen family, you take this red envelope, and when you go to college, you can use it as your pocket money." ”
Chen Feng was about to refuse, but his grandfather immediately put on a stern expression and said, "Accept it quickly, otherwise grandpa will be unhappy." ”
"Xiaofeng, you can take what Grandpa gave you." The grandmother on the side also smiled and agreed.
In desperation, Chen Feng had no choice but to accept the red envelope, and after the eldest aunt saw it, she muttered with a little nonchalant: "Dad, the red envelope you gave Xiaofeng is so big, you are not so good to my son." ”
Grandpa smiled indifferently and said, "As long as it is the champion of our old Zhang family, I will give so much to each of them." ”
It's just that when these words were spoken, the eldest aunt's face looked even more displeased.
