8. Family Dinner(2)

I ask for a collection and recommend it!

********

Cai Ming, who was sitting next to Daniel Zhang, immediately shouted loudly to the outside: "The waiter serves the food." ”

Cai Ming is now just a small clerk in the Municipal Planning Bureau, although he is good at dancing with long sleeves, he is only a unit-level cadre in the Planning Bureau, and it is rare for a veteran hotel in the city like Baiyun Hotel to come to eat here at his level.

To put it bluntly, even if he can usually come here to eat once or twice, he also comes with leaders or customers, like the waiters here in Baiyun Hotel, they can only come in if they have a door, where is his turn to shout five and six, but today his eldest brother is present, and he is the competent cadre of Baiyun Hotel, so he dares to have such a hard waist.

The Zhang family has held several family banquets here, plus Daniel Zhang is the leader in charge here, so the supervisor here has long carefully helped arrange the meals, and as soon as he greeted here, those meals were served like flowing water.

Wang Guang and Cai Qiang, two cousins, looked at the fragrant food on the dinner table, all of them were surging in their throats, after all, they were all half-grown teenagers, in the face of such a delicious meal, how could they resist the temptation, but the adults hadn't moved yet, where did the two of them dare to move for half a minute?

If he had changed to the original Li Yifan, it is estimated that he would have been like these two cousins a long time ago, looking at the food on the table and swallowing saliva, but now he is no longer the ignorant young man he used to be, and he doesn't know how many times the food is more than this, and he doesn't know how much he has eaten, so in the face of the current table of food, it is difficult to make him feel emotional.

Li Yifan's calmness was seen by her cousin Zhang Qian opposite, she was a little curious about this cousin, Li Yifan didn't study well before, and he still relied on his father to find someone to help him when he entered the first middle school, and after entering the first middle school, he was also unaware of everyone, so Zhang Qian looked down on his cousin very much.

But yesterday she heard that her cousin gave the son of Gao Zhishan, director of the Civil Affairs Bureau, two slaps, and today Li Yifan was different from the previous calm at such a banquet, which made her feel even more curious, what happened to this cousin? How could he suddenly change so much?

Zhang Qian's mouth moved, but in the end she still did not speak, and on the other side, under the hot slap of Wang Hu and Cai Ming, Daniel Zhang had already begun to drink with his two brothers-in-law.

A few concubines began to start a family routine, and the men began to fight for wine, and now the half-grown boy who no one paid attention to was happy, and began to sweep the food on the table like a storm.

After two years of training, Li Yifan, who knows the etiquette at the table very well, did not join the two cousins' war group early and began to devour the performance as he had done in the previous family banquets, but chewed slowly, ate very slowly and gently, and only put a few chopsticks on the dishes he was interested in, and generally stopped at a shallow taste, and did not have the embarrassing performance before.

And Li Yifeng's different performance today was also seen by Daniel Zhang, his nephew, how did he seem to be a little different today, and looking at his light and light expression, it seemed that he was really not pretending, which was very different from the Yifan in his previous impression.

"Yifan, you have a final exam tomorrow, right? How's the preparation? ”

For the news of the juniors in the family, Daniel Zhang is still very concerned, he was also completely on his own in the early years, became the first college student in Longtou Village to be admitted to university, and then through the identity of a college student, joined the civil service team, mixed with today's identity and status, so he knows the importance of good or bad academic performance to a teenager.

His own child is a daughter, although he studies well, so he is very relieved about his daughter, but among his nephews and nephews, so far he has seen that this nephew is still a little ambitious.

Wang Guang of the second sister's family, this child has not liked him since he was Daniel Zhang a child because of his appearance, and this child is not a learning material, and he is still messing around in the ordinary middle school of the third middle school, so Daniel Zhang is not very interested in Wang Guang.

Cai Qiang of Xiaomei's family, although the child is honest, but his studies are not too good, he will take the high school entrance exam next year, but Daniel Zhang is not very optimistic about him.

In this way, there is only this three superfluous of the eldest sister's family, although this child has not performed well in recent years, but in the early years, he was still quite spiritual, plus this child is also good-looking, and is still studying in the first middle school, so Daniel Zhang still has great expectations for Li Yifan.

In his opinion, the hope of this family's future will be pinned on Zhang Qian and Li Yifan.

This time, the matter of starting the end of the first high school and then classifying has been spread in the city, and many organ cadres whose children are studying in the first high school have been discussing this topic for some time, and they are very concerned about their children's future, and this year Li Yifan will also participate in this final exam, so Daniel Zhang unconsciously led the topic to this topic.

"Well, it's almost ready."

Li Yifan replied lightly, although there was no gritted teeth, but his calmness and calmness still made Daniel Zhang's eyes brighten, this child is different from before, a little less frizzy, a little more calm, as if he has grown up all of a sudden.

Li Yifan's academic performance has always been the object of his parents' shame to talk about it before, after all, although his grades are not as good as the tail of the crane, they are also in the middle and lower reaches.

So although parents are reluctant to mention it in front of their relatives, in fact, everyone knows that as the saying goes, hitting people is not a slap in the face, and everyone usually does not ask such embarrassing questions when they are at parties.

Today, the uncle was a little happy to be patted by the second aunt and the younger brother-in-law, so he asked about this topic for a while, and after the original words came out, he regretted it, but he didn't expect that Li Yifan's calmness and calmness surprised him very much.

A trace of gloom flashed on the faces of the second aunt and the second aunt, but they were quickly covered up by the two, while the younger aunt was full of disdain, but after being stabbed by the aunt, he also changed his face.

"Huh? …… haha, so confident, that's a good thing......"

The sister-in-law said that he usually looked at Li Yifan's father Li Liqiang, the eldest brother-in-law, very unhappy, because Cai Ming is from the city, and Li Liqiang is from Longtou Village.

In addition, he and his second aunt Wang Hu are very close, so the second aunt and his husband have thoughts about Li Liqiang, and he has long known about them, so when it is inconvenient for the second aunt and second aunt to come forward, he often says some excessive things to his father, which makes Li Yifan unhappy with him for a long time.

"Well, it's good to have confidence, but you can't underestimate the enemy, I heard that the difficulty of this exam is not low!"

Daniel Zhang saw his extraordinarily confident nephew, and couldn't help but remind him again.

"Uncle, don't worry, I'm ready."

Li Yifan still replied very calmly, Daniel Zhang was even more surprised when he heard this sentence, is this still the same Li Yifan who was often intimidated by his own majesty when he talked to himself before?

And his eyes were firm and full of confidence, and it didn't look like he was talking big.

"Yes, yes, Xiao Fan has worked hard this time, and he reviews until the second half of the night when he goes home every day, but I haven't seen him study so hard for a while......

Thinking of her son's changes in the past few days, Zhang Shu is very proud, the changes in her son, even if it is just a little bit of her pride, she has to talk to others.

"Really? Haha, that's good, that's good. ”

"yes? How about working so hard? Aren't you peeking at martial arts novels? Haha, I'm kidding......"

Cai Ming can't let go of the opportunity to hit Li Yifeng, he is really out of identity if he makes such a joke with a child like an adult.

Seeing his wife's strange gaze, as well as Daniel Zhang's slightly unhappy eyes, Cai Ming also realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he hurriedly said.

"Haha, Yifan, this final exam, if you do well in the test and can stay in the key class, my brother-in-law will reward you with a Giant bike."

In these years, Giant bicycles are not cheap, they cost 800 to 1,000 yuan for any one of them, and Cai Ming's monthly salary at this time was only more than 2,000 points, but the reason why he dared to say this was that he didn't believe that Li Yifan could pass the exam.

"Hehe, yes, it's good for Yifan to study, Xiao Cai, you just wait to pay for it when the time comes."

The second aunt said, and then the second aunt followed the second aunt's words.

"No, I remember when I was in elementary school, Yifan studied well, at that time it was often the top ten in the class, although in recent years, the grades are not very stable, but you don't underestimate the boys in high school, if you really study hard, the grades can come up quickly."

As soon as I heard the words of the second aunt and the two sons, it seemed that they were praising Li Yifan, but looking at the expressions of the two of them when they exchanged glances with each other, Li Yifan knew that this was called killing, and the meaning of the people was obvious, if you are held high now, you will fall harder at that time, and when the time comes, it will not only be his Li Yifan's face that will be lost in front of relatives and friends, but also the faces of Li Liqiang and Zhang Shu. Zhang Shu is the eldest sister, and she is also quick-tempered, and she is generally reluctant to think about these delicate intrigues, after all, she wants to maintain the unity between sisters and brothers.

And Li Liqiang is a wooden person, and he has not been very good at handling human affairs, so he didn't hear these ghost ways between his two brothers-in-law.

However, the uncle who has been in the officialdom for a long time, how can he not understand the meaning between these two brothers-in-law, and the tacit eyes exchanged between Cai Ming and Wang Hu, he can see it in his eyes.

Hum! Playing a game of red face and white face? Between relatives, how can this be?

"Xiaofan, if you do well in the exam this time and can stay in the key class, your uncle will reward you with a thousand yuan!"

Daniel Zhang spoke, his words can be said to be sincere, just now between the second aunt and the younger uncle, he can see in his eyes, so compared with the current uncle's sincere words, it is clear which is better and which is better.

"Don't worry, uncle, I'm sure I won't let you down. By the way, sister-in-law, you have that bike ready! Second uncle, if I do well in the exam, aren't you going to reward me with something? ”

Since you like to put me together so much, then I don't take advantage of the situation general?

"By the way, the reason why your family can have today is because of the eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law, so Wang Hu, you can't be stingy this time?"

Daniel Zhang said to Wang Hu with a smile, by the way, he also joined the army, for Wang Hu and Cai Ming who put pressure on children before the exam, he is really a little unaccustomed, there are grudges between adults, what is it to involve children?

Uncle Zhang Shan, who has not spoken much, also spoke at this time.

"That's right, second brother-in-law, your family and your eldest brother-in-law's family have partnered to open a restaurant, and they have been working together for some days, and they have made a lot of money.

Wang Hu didn't expect that the words were led to his head, and his face was a little red, but he quickly opened his mouth.

"That's good, if Xiao Fan does well in the exam this time and can stay in the key class, I will reward him with 2,000 yuan in cash."
