Chapter 117: A Few Families Are Happy and a Few Are Sad
Today's Zhongshan City is no different from the past.
The streets are still full of people and vehicles.
For the vast majority of citizens, today is just an ordinary day, a break that should go to work, and a break that should be rested.
But for others, today is a rare day.
Yang Xue's father, Yang Wensheng, was arranging his shirt in front of the mirror, with a very upright look on his face.
"Husband, you're so handsome." Yang Xue's mother helped him fix the back collar of his shirt and the hem tucked into the trouser belt, and said with joy in her eyes.
Yang Wensheng showed a warm smile and said, "Has Xue'er set off over there?" ”
"I don't know, they are waiting for Zhang Qi to come back, saying that they are preparing some surprise for him." Mother Yang said with a smile, paused, and looked at him affectionately, "Husband, this opportunity is rare, you must take advantage of it." ”
Yang Wensheng nodded and said, "Got it." ”
"Then you repeat, I just told you what I just said." Mother Yang hugged her arms and asked for a long time.
Yang Wensheng said helplessly: "Toast the leaders more, especially Mayor Liu, so that he can have a good impression of me." ”
"It's so simple that you will still remember wrong," Yang Mu knocked him and said angrily, "It's not about toasting the leader more, it's about having more relations with the leader." It's the best relationship at the wine table, and your identity is not ordinary, the future father-in-law of Zhuang Yuanlang, those people still have to hold you hard? ”
"Alas, there is no one in the eight characters, it's a shame to pull the relationship like this." Yang Wensheng sighed.
"Hey, I said you, there is such a good opportunity, you don't take advantage of it, wait until next time I don't know when!" Mother Yang hated iron and said with hatred, "Our Xue'er is only a sophomore in high school next semester, even if she talks about marriage with Zhang Qi, she will at least have to wait until she graduates from high school, right?" Maybe you'll have to wait until you graduate from college! How many years have it been? Ah, look at what the hell you're doing now! Doing something is being pushed around, who knows that you are a little person? That Zhang Qi has such a good relationship with the mayor, if you don't take this opportunity, let alone have a relationship with those leaders, you won't even be able to see each other. ”
As soon as she said it, she became excited and chattered endlessly: "Even the leaders of the procuratorate in your own organ, few people recognize you, do you say that you live like this?" ”
Yang Wensheng became angry, and said with a calm face: "Who said that there are few people in my hospital who recognize me?" I handled my case well, and the deputy prosecutor general praised me at the meeting several times. ”
"Eh, yo yo, amazing, praise, how amazing!" Mother Yang said in a very unceremonious tone, "But have you been promoted?" Did you mention the treatment? Well? Is the year-end bonus more than others? Or do you have an extra apartment? No matter how beautiful your case is, what else is there besides a few words of verbal praise? Last time, there was a place for a sub-department, did you get it for being so able to handle cases? No, it was the nephew of the director of the office who got it. Do you think you can do that? ”
Yang Wensheng took a deep breath and said, "Don't say it, I know everything." ”
"Okay," Mother Yang sighed and said, "I also know what kind of character you are. It's really hard for you to do these things. But you also have to think about me and Cher, I live a careful life every day, and I am reluctant to buy even better cosmetics. I'm just going to do it myself, anyway, I'm old and yellow, and that's what it's like if I can't dress up. But what about Cher? You don't know the girls around her, all of them are good-looking, they are all famous brands. Cher hangs out with her friends and always asks others to pay, even if she doesn't have any ideas, but what her friends think. ”
"Her friends aren't that kind of people." Yang Wensheng had a calm face, lit a cigarette, and listened helplessly to his wife's nagging.
"How do you know? Knowing people and knowing their faces but not their hearts, what they think psychologically, can you know? Mother Yang said disdainfully, "Let's not talk about Qi Weiwei, let's just say that the dancer who used to have similar conditions as our Xue'er, her father is now also promoted and has become a deputy director." The dance is even more beautiful, and I heard that many leaders are very close to her. You're still the same, standing still, not knowing progress. ”
"You mean Qin Wu'er's father, Old Qin? He was promoted? Yang Wensheng thought it was incredible.
"yes, you don't know that? Didn't Mayor Liu put on a celebration banquet some time ago? Zhang Qi took Wu'er to the banquet, and then the next day I heard that Lao Qin had been promoted. ”
When Mother Yang said this, there was a look of surprise on her face.
Yang Wensheng frowned and smoked a cigarette.
"Why can Zhang Qi take Wu'er to the banquet, can't he let our Xue'er be beautiful once? Xue'er is no worse than that Qin Wu'er, but she is young and hasn't developed much. Then Qin Wu'er's conditions are just like that. ”
Yang Wensheng said: "She is much more sensible than our daughter, she has a good temper, and she is in the same class as Zhang Qi, don't think too much." ”
"What do you mean I don't think too much?" Mother Yang was angry, "You forgot about the days when our daughter was lying on the hospital bed?" She was so painful for Zhang Qi, could Zhang Qi not be responsible? ”
"Didn't he cure Cher? Don't mention that, it's all in the past. Yang Wensheng showed a tired look.
"I can't let my daughter suffer for the rest of her life, Zhang Qi is indeed a good child, he will definitely be our son-in-law. Wensheng, you cheer me up a little, wrestle with Lao Qin, don't let his daughter snatch Zhang Qi away. ”
Yang Wensheng shook his head helplessly and muttered: "At the beginning, Zhang Qi's reputation was not obvious, and I didn't know who hated him all day long. ”
His words poked at the sore spot of Yang's mother.
She has always regretted very much that she didn't grasp it at that time. If at that time, she could foresee the present, she would definitely not put on such a look at Zhang Qi.
"Just talk too much!" She was about to vent her anger on her husband, but when she saw that he was wearing brand-new brand-name trousers, she stopped her feet, didn't kick them, and snorted, "Let's go, go to the banquet, don't put such a dead pig face on me." Let's give full play to the spirit of the protagonist this time and let those people know the relationship between our daughter and Zhang Qi. ”
Yang Wensheng stood up without saying a word, went out with her, and rushed to the municipal government guest house.
……
Qin Wu'er's home.
Qin Qiang and his wife also put on the most expensive clothes they could find in the closet, Qin's mother put on the precious set of wedding jewelry that she had never worn since she got married, and Qin Qiang put on a newly bought golden watch.
"Do you think it's appropriate for me to wear this watch?" Qin Qiang looked at the dazzling gold watch on his wrist, "What if others say that I am corrupt and bribery." After all, I'm also a leader, isn't it good to be so flamboyant? ”
"What's wrong with wearing a gold watch? It's not that our family has no money, for such an important occasion, if you don't order something to suppress the scene, can you do it? Qin's mother whispered, but her eyes kept staring at the pearl necklace on her chest reflected in the mirror.
"Wife, you're so beautiful." Qin Qiang looked at her beauty, as if he saw her who was so beautiful when he got married, and couldn't help but hug her.
Mother Qin snorted and said delicately: "I'm a yellow-faced woman, where is it beautiful." ”
"Eh, let me kiss you."
Qin Qiang kissed her on the cheek and said happily: "You are dressed so beautifully, are you ready to break into high society?" ”
"Look at what you said," Qin's mother blushed, "If you are the big leader, am I naturally the leader's wife?" Where do you need to break into the high society. ”
The reason why she is so well-groomed is entirely because her current status is not what it used to be. Her daughter, Qin Wu'er, is very favored in the circle of upper-class ladies, although Qin Wu'er didn't contact them much, but they often asked Qin's mother to give her gifts. Qin's mother's unit always drives a luxury car from time to time and sends someone to send snacks or small gifts.
This made Qin's mother's prestige in her unit rise, and now everyone who sees her is respectfully smiling and greeting.
has always accepted the love of others, and today has the opportunity, Mother Qin wants to thank those ladies in person and strive to integrate into them.
"You say, Zhang Qi was admitted to Beijing University or Huada, will he drift away from our daughter? When the time comes, will we lose a qiē? Mother Qin suddenly thought of this question and felt a little panicked.
