Chapter 101: The Dinner Party

As soon as Lu Tingshan sat down, someone brought tea, this tea is naturally not ordinary tea, the tea maker is an old man with white hair, sitting in a corner, his expression is focused, and it can even be called sacred.

And every time someone comes to serve tea, they will bow slightly to the old man, even Zhao Sihai and Zhao Wanxiong are no exception.

Obviously, this holy hand of the tea ceremony must have been a tea ceremony master in the past, and it is estimated that he also has a well-known name, but he is just in seclusion in the Zhao family and is expected by the world.

Zhao Wanxiong sat next to Lu Tingshan and nodded with a smile: "Thank you for being a guest in our mansion, my name is Zhao Wanxiong." ”

Lu Tingshan was about to praise the tea, but he didn't expect Zhao Wanxiong to come over to accompany the guests in person, and he was a little excited at the moment.

The people of the Zhao family rarely appear in public on weekdays, but Zhao Wanxiong's name of Zhigu is in full swing in the business world, and the people who heard it are like thunder, but I didn't expect this middle-aged man who is not amazing to be one of the two pillars of the Zhao family, Zhao Wanxiong, Lu Tingshan was a little flattered, and immediately stood up, bowed and said: "Don't be surnamed Lu, the name Tingshan, come from Tianhai, because he is friends with Zhao Bing, so he came to nag, it is really disturbing, Mr. Zhao's name is really like thunder, I have heard of it for a long time, I don't want to see it today, It's really a blessing for three lives! ”

Zhao Wanxiong smiled slightly, shook hands with Lu Tingshan, invited him to sit down, and said with a smile: "It turned out that the head of the Feilong Group has arrived, although the Feilong Group has not been established for too long, but over the years, it has made remarkable achievements, Mr. Lu is also a leader in the business world, and it is a blessing to meet Mr. Lu." ”

Lu Tingshan was stunned for a moment, and immediately became a little excited.

He never thought that Zhao Wanxiong actually knew about him, how could he not be excited, but where did he know about the contradictions within the Zhao family, otherwise, he would definitely not have such a happy mood now.

Zhao Wanxiong chatted for a while, and then left under the pretext.

The next one came Zhao Sihai, and as soon as the latter sat down, he introduced himself with a smile: "I am Zhao Bing's father, Zhao Sihai." ”

As soon as he heard this name, Lu Tingshan was a little distracted, and only after half a sound did a spirit come back to his senses, and his speech was a little incoherent: "You are Zhao Sihai?" ”

When Zhao Sihai made trouble in Yanjing City, Lu Tingshan was still a small staff member of the company, he really couldn't imagine that the most influential person in Yanjing was so approachable, how did he look at it, and he couldn't see anything special about Zhao Sihai, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this family is too deep, and there is no shelf, so people can't see the depth at a glance, which is like those second-rate families, half-through the water clanging, nothing to do outside, for fear that others will not know his superiority.

Zhao Sihai just chatted a few words and left.

Lu Tingshan was still in shock, thinking about it carefully, the old lady of the Zhao family had two sons and one daughter, and all of them were dragons and phoenixes.

The empress of the business world, Zhihu, can be described as the Zhao family's double master, who has supported the huge empire of the Zhao family, and a Zhao Sihai threatens many opponents, and does not dare to have a trace of disrespect for the Zhao family.

This is called both civil and military, two civil and one martial, which shocked the world inexplicably!

He was still shocked here, many guests had already sat down, and Lu Tingshan looked up, a little unbearable.

The few people in front of him, all of them are bigwigs in the business world, they can be described as real boss-level figures, these people are more or less related to the Zhao Empire, it is estimated that they can pull out one casually and stomp their feet, and they can make the business world shake up three points.

He naturally didn't understand that these **oss had never received much courtesy from Zhao Sihai and Zhao Wanxiong, but the two Zhao brothers came to talk to him one by one, and they were very polite, this is just a detail, and it is already enviable.

So Huh, Lu Tingshan began to be busy exchanging business cards with these people, and many people even vaguely expressed their willingness to have the opportunity to cooperate with Feilong Group, which made Lu Tingshan even more ecstatic.

He has been crawling around in the mall for decades, of course he knows what these people think, maybe they just want to get closer to the Zhao family through him and get greater support from the Zhao family, but does it matter?

Lu Tingshan felt that it was not important at all, everyone took what they needed, as long as there was an opportunity to take the Feilong Group to a higher level and go further, he would not let go of this opportunity.

As for other things, he couldn't care so much.

He couldn't help but be happy to socialize here, but Lu Jia was in a complicated mood at this time.

Where would Lu Jia understand how rare it is for her to enter the backyard of the Zhao family, and how precious this kind of opportunity is, it will make people jealous to death when she says it, although she has long expected to see Wang Ruoyu here, but when she really sees it, she is still very sad in her heart.

Judging from the position where Wang Ruoyu is standing now, he has already won the approval of the Zhao family, and sooner or later he will become Zhao Bing's main room, which makes Lu Jia feel sad in her heart, this mood is completely different from her father.

What's more, she also saw Zhao Xishui.

A Wang Ruoyu is enough to make her feel inferior, this Zhao Xishui is even better than half in temperament, a forty-year-old woman, but she has a look in her twenties, and her mature temperament even makes Wang Ruoyu slightly inferior by three points.

To greet the old lady, she didn't kneel down and kowtow, and the old lady didn't care, but because of Hu Shi's matter before, the old lady was obviously in a bad mood, just smiled, and asked her to sit down.

At this time, more than ten tables had been opened in the backyard, and Lu Jia was brought to Qin Lin's side, she didn't want to go, but Qin Lin called her, and Zhao Bing took her, so she reluctantly sat next to Wang Ruoyu.

And at this table, there are some descendants of the Zhao family, which can only be regarded as the core figures of the Zhao family, she still doesn't know, so looking at the strange eyes around her, she is a little strange, and she really can't understand how these people have such strange expressions.

"Didn't you say you wanted to go back, why did you come again?"

Qin Lin didn't open which pot to mention, which made Lu Jia have an urge to turn his face.

In fact, Qin Lin also felt a lot of pressure sitting here, more or less, after a few days of understanding, she had already mastered the situation of the Zhao family, although she is now the granddaughter of the old lady, and she seems to be very favored, but she has never really felt that she is the Zhao family, Zhao Bing will not think so, how can she be so unconscious, in her opinion, she is just Zhao Bing's sister, and even deep down, she doesn't like this identity.

So, seeing Lu Jia, Qin Lin was very happy, and asked such a question that Lu Jia didn't like.

"My dad asked me to come." Lu Jia said a little unhappily: "I bumped into it at the airport, and I was dragged here." ”

"What about Uncle Lu?"

"She's outside." Lu Jia muttered.

She glanced at Wang Ruoyu beside her, who knew that she nodded slightly, her expression was very light, she was not happy or sad, and she couldn't see what she was thinking in her heart, which made Lu Jia a little apprehensive.

I don't know why, she is now very afraid of colliding with Wang Ruoyu, although she has made up her mind to improve herself and make herself better, but there must be a process, and she never thought that after her own efforts, she can beat Wang Ruoyu, maybe she doesn't know herself, she just regards Wang Ruoyu as a god-like existence, an object that cannot be surpassed, and even, deep in her heart, she still has a deep admiration for Wang Ruoyu, regards each other as an idol, and she herself has a faint inferiority, of course, She doesn't deeply reflect on these thoughts in her heart.

The sky gradually darkened, the door of the old mansion slowly closed, and all the guests in the outer courtyard dispersed, but there were still a few tables of VIPs in the middle courtyard.

Later, the guests in the middle courtyard, under the leadership of the two brothers of the Zhao family, also entered the backyard and sat down one after another.

These business tycoons who usually refuse to buy it when they see a big party official, but at this time, they are cautious, walking on thin ice, and all of them are low-key and humble.

There are more than ten tables of banquets in the courtyard, and the dishes are all home-cooked dishes, there is no abalone and lobster, but because there is a master to mix and personally take charge of the spoon, so the color and flavor are complete, and the fragrance is excellent.

The guests sit down separately and are also exquisite.

The bigwigs of the business world sat at a few tables, some special guests such as the Wang family, Qin Lin, Lu Jia and others sat at a table, some strange people in the middle courtyard sat in the corner, and the rest were the Zhao family, which was huge, more than 100 people.

The Zhao Sihai brothers accompanied these business people, the Zhao Bing brothers accompanied Lu Jia and others, and the Zhao family was accompanied by Wu Qiong.

Everyone may have their own calculations, or they may have conflicts or conflicts of interest with each other, but at this moment, they all behave amiably and beautifully, as if what happened in the backyard never happened.

This is naturally because there is an old lady in charge.

The old lady and Zhao Xishui finally sat at Zhao Bing's table, no one dared to move if he didn't move the chopsticks, the old lady stood up, and was a little trembling, raised his glass and smiled: "The old man has lived for so many years, today is ninety years old, witnessed the birth and development of the Chinese Empire, and I am very happy to be able to gather with you today, but I have never been much interested in birthday banquets, and I was in a bad mood a few years ago, so I was not allowed to put up any banquet for my children, but this year is different, my grandson Zhao Bing has not heard from him for many years, and he actually went home." , This is the first joy, I recognized my granddaughter Linlin, this is the second joy, thinking that Xiaobing can marry Ruoyu, this is the third joy, three joys, and many condolences from the children, I will obey their wishes, after all, they have this filial piety, if I have to block, it seems that I am not very good, so there is today's banquet, just the guests come thousands of miles to congratulate, I am really ashamed, so I prepare a little wine and coarse tea and light rice, I hope you eat and drink well, and I dare not nag you anymore, After a while, we will disperse early, and here, I would like to toast you a glass and express my gratitude. ”

None of the people present dared to sit, and the old lady was standing, so they all stood up, said a few words, and drank the wine in the cup together.

The old lady drank a glass of wine, but her face was flushed, she coughed nonstop, and finally wiped a handful on the corner of her mouth, frowned, and said to Zhao Xishui beside her: "Help me into the house." ”

After saying this, he stopped talking, and Zhao Xishui hurriedly said: "My father has encountered typhoid fever in the past few days, and he has been in poor health, so he will not accompany you, I will help him into the house to rest first, and everyone will eat and drink slowly." ”

When the old lady feasted, he actually fell ill, and it seemed that he was not lightly ill, as soon as he entered the house, everyone suddenly stared at each other, but no one dared to say anything.

Brother Zhao Sihai followed first, Zhao Bing and Zhao Bangguo followed, but when the old lady arrived at the door, he suddenly turned his head and waved his hand, so no one dared to follow up, but in the corner of the courtyard, an ordinary-looking old man ignored everyone and followed in.

"Come, on behalf of my father, I would like to toast everyone." Zhao Sihai picked up the cup.

"I'll give you a toast too." Then, Zhao Wanxiong also raised his cup and toasted.

As a result, the courtyard became lively again, but behind this excitement, many people were very worried.
