Chapter 297: Birthday Gift
Zuo Jiang stood up and walked out, everyone's eyes were aimed at him, these eyes were very complicated, and the thoughts in his heart were varied, Zuo Jiang said that there was Moutai in the trunk of my car, and it was more than 20 years old, and he didn't say his father's car, which obviously expressed a meaning to everyone, the car is mine! If Zuo Zheng had Moutai in his car, everyone might not be so surprised, after all, he was the head of the first game, and Zuo Jiang was different, he was just a freshman in high school, even if a high-ranking official like Li Zhiguo, as the executive deputy mayor, did not have the habit of putting a box of Moutai in the car.
When Zuo Jiang walked to the door of the restaurant, he suddenly stopped, turned back to Li Xinrui, who was sitting at the table, and said, "Little sister, you can help me get some wine, I can't take it alone!" "Among the third generation of people, Zuo Jiang only calls Li Xinrui the little sister, and everyone here knows that Zuo Jiang is calling her, doesn't Li Shuxian not let her play with me, I prefer to shout in front of everyone, you can't say anything on such an occasion.
Li Xinrui couldn't help but look up at her mother Li Shuxian when she heard this, and saw that she was expressionless, so she hesitated for a moment and stood up and walked out with Zuo Jiang, and when she went outside, she whispered to Zuo Jiang and said: "Little brother, didn't I tell you everything, my mother won't let me play with you, but if you call me in front of her, my mother will be angry then!" ”
Zuo Jiang smiled and said: "Little sister, I'm not looking for you to come out to play, isn't this asking you to help me get wine, you see that the people in the house are older than me, I can't call them, only you are younger than me, I have to call you." I don't think your mother will be angry about such a thing as bringing wine to grandpa! Of course, Zuo Jiang couldn't say what was in his heart, but it was still necessary to explain, he didn't want to ruin the good relationship between him and his little cousin.
Li Xinrui also felt that this was the case when she heard this, so she put down her mind and came to Zuo Jiang's car in the courtyard with Zuo Jiang. Zuo Jiang opened the back door with the car key strip, pulled out the box of Moutai that had already drunk 1 bottle, opened the box and took the wine out. Li Xinrui looked at Zuo Jiang's car curiously and asked, "Little brother, what kind of car are you, why have I never seen it?" ”
Zuo Jiang took out the Moutai wine box and put it on the plane of the back warehouse, and said to Li Xinrui: "This is a Ford car, made in the United States, and the number of such cars in China is very small, so it's normal if you haven't seen it." ”
Li Xinrui said: "Little brother, so I bought this car in the United States, is it yours?" ”
Zuo Jiang smiled and said: "Of course, I bought it from the United States, and there is no car of this brand in China yet, although this car is not mine, it is almost the same as mine." ”
Li Xinrui couldn't help but feel a little confused when she heard this, it was not his or his, what was going on, so she asked: "Little brother, why do you say that, yes, no, no!" ”
Zuo Jiang said: "This car was bought for me by my sister, and now it is my special car, but this car is registered in my sister's Simon Construction China Corporation, so it is the same as mine." ”
"Your sister?" Li Xinrui's first thought was the two sisters of the eldest uncle and the second uncle's family, they didn't seem to be very friendly to Zuojiang's family, and besides, none of them had the strength to afford such a car, so she asked very suspiciously: "Which sister?" Is it your uncle or aunt's sister? ”
Zuo Jiang said: "No, it's my godsister, her name is Tao Fei, she is the president of Harry Potter Financial Investment Company in China, and she is in charge of the Harry Potter Hotel, Simon Construction China Corporation, and Harry Potter Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., which are invested by Harry Potter Financial Investment Company in China. ”
"Ahh These three long titles made Li Xinrui confused, but she remembered that Tao Fei was the person in charge of the American company in China, and she could buy such a good car for her godbrother, it must be very rich, and she wanted to ask Zuo Jiang how she recognized her godsister, but she was embarrassed to speak, so she had to pick up 4 bottles of Moutai and said: "Little brother, let's hurry up, otherwise grandpa they should be in a hurry!" ”
Zuo Jiang also picked up 4 bottles of wine and pushed them up the back door and walked into the house with Li Xinrui, and when they came to the restaurant and saw everyone looking at them, Zuo Jiang smiled and said: "Grandpa, I'll take 8 bottles first, and if it's not enough to drink in a while, I'll pick it up later!" ”
Li Dalun knew a little bit about Zuo Jiang, and when he heard it, he laughed and said, "You don't need to take it anymore, you kid, how can we drink 8 bottles!" ”
Zuo Jiang smiled and said: "Grandpa, I'll get it again after drinking, if you can't drink it, you can keep it and drink it slowly, I will cover all your wine in the future!" ”
When Grandma heard this, she said to Zuo Jiang with some reproach: "Xiao Jiang, that's not good, your grandfather's health is not good and he can't let him drink more, today is when everyone comes back, make an exception, control it in the future, drink at most once a week!" ”
Officials of their level like Aunt Li Shuxian, Aunt-in-law Li Chengliang and Second Uncle Li Yuguo, if they are asked to take out 8 bottles of Moutai for more than 20 years at a time, it is also very difficult to do it, not to mention that they are reluctant to spend this money, even if they are willing to buy it once, they can't buy so much, seeing Zuo Jiang took it out very casually, he was surprised and doubted whether this wine was real or fake, but this suspicion quickly disappeared after tasting it, this wine is absolutely real, there is no doubt.
Grandfather Li Dalun's table has his mother Li Shuyuan to take care of, Zuojiang and their table Li Zhengyang is the largest, he is in charge, they only have Uncle Li Zhiguo's son Li Zhengyang, second uncle Li Yuguo's son Li Mingyang, daughter Li Jing's husband Xie Xuebo, aunt Li Shuxian's son Li Xiaoyu and Zuojiang 5 people drink liquor, the rest are either drinking beer or drinks, and finally Li Dongmei can't help but ask for a glass of Moutai.
After the dishes were served, Wu's mother also sat at Li Dalun's table, she looked at the children on the table as if she saw her own children, the wrinkles on her face smiled, Zuo Jiang glanced at the kitchen, and saw that the two chefs did not come out, they must have eaten in the kitchen, so she picked up a bottle of Moutai wine and walked into the kitchen.
Sure enough, just like Zuo Jiang thought, the two chefs were standing on the ground around the board while drinking and eating, Zuo Jiang glanced at the wine bottle next to him, it was Fenjiu, obviously it was given to them by Grandma Wu. When a chef saw Zuo Jiang walking in, he hurriedly put down his chopsticks and asked, "What else do you need?" ”
Zuo Jiang smiled and raised the Moutai in his hand to them and said: "The two masters have worked hard, my grandfather asked me to send you a bottle of Moutai to comfort you, this is more than 20 years of cellaring!" As he spoke, he handed the wine in his hand to the older chef.
Generally speaking, chefs are good wine, the more famous the chef is for good wine, the more he has a soft spot for good wine, as soon as he heard Zuo Jiang say that it was Moutai that had been cellared for more than 20 years, his eyes lit up, but he still pushed back and said: "How embarrassing is this, it is appropriate to serve the leader!" ”
Zuo Jiang stuffed the wine into his hand and said, "What's so embarrassing about this, what my grandfather gave you is a piece of his old man's heart, and you have nothing to blame, take it and drink it!" With that, he turned around and walked out of the kitchen.
According to the tradition of birthday celebrations, after the banquet is the juniors to the old birthday gift to the birthday gift, Li Zhengyang for the grandfather's birthday gift painstaking, the last ruthless spent more than 8,000 yuan to buy a white jade carved old birthday star, this time to Tongjiang, they have been despised by their Li Shuyuan family pressed the limelight, the heart is full of strength to find the field back, the banquet just began when he was in a hurry to offer the birthday gift, as soon as the table opened the cup he stood up, said to Li Dalun: "Grandpa, tomorrow is your old man's seventieth birthday, Grandson wishes you the old man love and happiness such as the East China Sea, and longevity than Nanshan! This is a birthday gift that your grandson bought for you! Saying that, he took out the gift box prepared in advance and opened it, and signaled to everyone for a week, everyone saw that the kind white jade old birthday star not only let out an exclamation of amazement, but Li Zhengyang was very proud to send the birthday gift to Li Dalun's hands.
Li Dalun was naturally very happy to take it, and the left and right were auspicious. Li Shuxian finally found an opportunity, and she said to Li Zhengyang seemingly casually: "Zhengyang! Your eldest grandson is really a caring person! I think this white jade old birthday star is worth at least 18,000! ”
Li Zhengyang not only said a little proudly: "Grandpa's seventieth birthday, I am worth it as much as I spend as a grandson, as long as grandpa likes it!" ”
Next, the juniors at this table of Zuojiang presented their birthday gifts one by one, except for Li Jing and Li Dongmei who participated in the work and had more expensive birthday gifts, several other people were in school, just to express their hearts, and finally when it was Zuojiang's turn, he stood up and said: "I wish grandpa good health and a long life!" As he spoke, he took out the brocade box full of Rolex starry watches, stepped forward and handed it to Li Dalun with both hands and said, "Grandpa, this is a watch I brought back from the United States, you will definitely like it!" ”
Those few people were disdainful when they heard that Zuo Jiang was sending a watch, although the watch is a valuable product, it is the best Shanghai brand watch in China, and it is only 120 yuan. As soon as Li Dalun opened the brocade box, everyone was immediately attracted by the glittering watch, and Li Zhengyang was also very curious to come up, when he saw the logo on the watch and the diamond on the dial, he was stunned!
Li Shuxian saw that Li Zhengyang felt something was wrong, and stabbed him with his hand and said, "Zhengyang, what's wrong with you?" ”
Li Zhengyang muttered: "This is a Rolex starry all-gold diamond watch!" I saw it in the Century Watch City in Shanghai, and the price was more than 300,000 yuan! ”
"Ahh The audience was shocked!
