Weekend. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Except for the eldest and second ladies who have already married, and the third son who stayed in the United States, all the members of the Zhang family are there, and even Zhang Yuanxi, who is the director of the Jiujiang Construction Bureau, has not gone out.
Zhang Leyi fell into the criticism of her father and second brother......
"Third sister, it's not that the second brother is greedy for power," Zhang Yuanxi said bitterly, "You said that Minister Song is dignified, young and promising, which point is not better than the underwear seller?" Even if you don't agree, you don't need to run away from home! What is this like? Where will our Zhang family's face be placed? ”
Zhang Leyi bowed her head and was silent.
Zhang Mouzhi said again: "Le Yi, since nothing has happened between you and the person surnamed Zhou, there is still room for redemption." Minister Song is impossible, and the second son of the Chen family is also studying in a prestigious school, and he is quite talented......"
"Dad, what do you say! I haven't seen that Chen Gongzi. Zhang Leyi began to resist.
Zhang's mother also helped to speak: "Yes, the marriage is a major event, and it cannot go against the wishes of the daughter." ”
Traditional marriage pays attention to the life of parents, but the Zhang family's thinking is more advanced, because they are a Christian family and are more influenced by Western concepts.
Zhang Deyi, who was holding the novel, suddenly raised her head and said, "Dad, I think Mr. Zhou is very good, and he is also a good match for the third sister." ”
"What does the little girl know?" Zhang Yuanxi scolded.
Zhang Deyi immediately retorted: "Second brother, you are authoritarian, everyone has the right to speak!" ”
The eldest son, Zhang Yuandong, also came to coax: "Yes, yes, yes, this family needs democracy." Only when everyone speaks freely and convinces the public with reason can the contradictions be truly resolved. ”
"It's none of your business!" Zhang Mouzhi shouted.
Zhang Yuandong shrugged his shoulders and said, "Dad, Jiujiang is really boring, when this design is finished, I am going to go to Shanghai or Nanjing." ”
Zhang Mouzhi frowned and said: "Our backers in Nanjing have fallen, and I am ready to give up the business in Nanjing." Nowadays, the government of the Republic of China does not change the soup, and without the support of the officials, it is difficult to do business. You, it's better to stay in Jiujiang honestly. ”
Zhang Yuandong said: "It's okay to stay in Jiujiang, then you pay to build a building, the kind that is hundreds of meters high, and I will help you do the design." ”
"What are you doing if you don't have anything to do with that high?" Zhang Mouzhi asked.
"I have a sense of accomplishment," Zhang Yuandong said, "Jiujiang is a broken place, there is no room for me to display my talents, and if I continue to nest here, my design career will die." ”
Mother Zhang blamed: "What is not dead, don't say these unlucky words." ”
Zhang Yuandong spread his hands heartlessly: "When I didn't say it, you should continue to teach the third sister, I am responsible for being the audience." ”
At this moment, the housekeeper hurriedly ran in: "Master, the man surnamed Zhou is here." Also ......"
Without waiting for the housekeeper to finish speaking, Zhang Mouzhi said sharply: "Boom away!" ”
"No, sir," the butler hurriedly said, "and Chairman Zhu came with him." ”
"Which Chairman Zhu?" Zhang Mouzhi asked.
The housekeeper said: "Zhu Peide, chairman of the Jiangxi Provincial Government." ”
"Why don't you make it clear?" Zhang Mouzhi was a little panicked, and hurriedly shouted, "Invite someone in...... No, I'm out to greet you personally! ”
On a hot day, Zhang Mouzhi deliberately put on a suit and tie, and then ran to the gate with his two sons.
It was still far away, and Zhang Mouzhi laughed loudly: "Oh, Chairman Zhu, please forgive me for being far away." Forgive sins, forgive sins! ”
Zhu Peide clenched his fists and smiled: "Boss Zhang is not polite, I also took the liberty to visit and disturb me." ”
"Don't dare to be, Chairman Zhu's arrival will make the humble house shine," Zhang Mouzhi lowered his body slightly and said with a smile, "Chairman Zhu, Mr. Zhou, please." ”
Zhou Hexuan smiled, did not speak, and silently followed behind Zhu Peide.
Zhu Peide glanced at Zhang Yuandong and Zhang Yuanxi, and asked as he walked: "These are the two sons?" ”
Zhang Mouzhi said: "It is the dog Far East and Far West, they both graduated from Cambridge University in England. ”
"It turned out to be a high-achieving student who returned from studying abroad," Zhu Peide said, "Now Jiangxi is in ruins, and there is a shortage of talents like the two sons, but we must contribute to the construction of our hometown." ”
"That's for sure," Zhang Mouzhi said with a smile, and then said to his son, "Far East, Far West, don't come and meet Chairman Zhu soon!" ”
Zhang Yuandong said in a lazy tone: "Chairman Zhu is good. ”
Zhang Yuanxi was extremely enthusiastic and said excitedly: "Xiaguan has seen Chairman Zhu!" ”
Zhu Peide asked, "Where do you serve?" ”
Zhang Yuanxi replied: "Xi is the director of the Jiujiang Construction Bureau. ”
"Well, work hard, and you will make great achievements in the future." Zhu Peide encouraged.
Everyone came to the living room, and Zhang's mother served iced sour plum soup.
Zhu Peide took a sip and said approvingly: "Mrs. Zhang's good craftsmanship, this sour plum soup is delicious and relieving the heat." ”
Mother Zhang smiled: "A little drink is not enough to worry about." If Chairman Zhu likes it, I will ask someone to send some to the house. ”
"No," Zhu Peide said and looked at the woman in the room, and finally looked at Zhang Leyi, "This son-in-law is the third lady, she is really gentle and virtuous, and she has a good eye!" ”
Zhou Hexuan smiled and secretly winked at Zhang Leyi.
Zhu Peide said again: "Boss Zhang, I am here to be a matchmaker today. Mingcheng and Ling Yan are in love, I hope to be old this month, I don't know what Boss Zhang wants? ”
Zhang Mouzhi smiled a little embarrassed, but he really couldn't refuse.
This is the chairman of the Jiangxi Provincial Government, the red man in front of Chang Kaishen, and he still has the army in his hands, how dare he say half a word?
And Zhang Leyi was also present, if Zhang Mouzhi refused, but his daughter agreed in the opposite tone, it would be not to give Zhu Peide face.
"Chairman Zhu personally acted as a matchmaker, which was the honor of the little girl, and she was flattered." Zhang Mouzhi had to grit his teeth and agree.
Zhang Leyi was ecstatic, if it weren't for the presence of outsiders, it is estimated that she would have thrown herself into Zhou Hexuan's arms to celebrate.
Zhu Peide laughed: "Then the matter is decided." On the wedding day of the two couples, I will definitely attend the wedding in person. Even if there is a delay and you can't come forward, you have to send someone to send a congratulatory gift. ”
After the Zhang family's efforts to stay, Zhu Peide had a light meal before leaving, and patted Zhou Hexuan on the shoulder as he left.
Zhang Mouzhi kept sending Zhu Peide out of the gate, and waited for the other party to disappear before turning around and saying to Zhou Hexuan angrily: "You have a big face, and you actually invited the provincial chairman." ”
Zhou Hexuan smiled and said, "Commander-in-Chief Chang is not in Jiujiang, otherwise I will definitely ask him to be a matchmaker." ”
"Don't be ashamed!" Zhang Mouzhi obviously didn't believe it.
Zhang Yuanxi asked, "Does Mr. Zhou know Commander-in-Chief Chang?" ”
Zhou Hexuan smiled: "After chatting a few words." He said that I could choose the officials below the head of the Central Committee, but unfortunately I didn't like to be an official, so I refused. ”
"You should have a bottom line for bragging." The more Zhang Mouzhi looked at Zhou Hexuan, the more angry he became.
Zhou Hexuan said helplessly: "Whether my uncle believes it or not, I'm telling the truth anyway." ”
"I believe it," Zhang Yuanxi enthusiastically leaned next to Zhou Hexuan and asked, "Mr. Zhou, are you very familiar with Chairman Zhu?" ”
"It's okay," Zhou Hexuan said, "Second brother, if you are aiming at officialdom, I can accompany you to Nanjing, and it would be good to get to know a few more big officials." ”
Zhang Yuanxi said happily: "Then please ask my brother-in-law." ”
Listening to the conversation between the two, Zhang Mouzhi stood next to him, rolling his eyes in anger.
If the Zhang family could marry Song Ziwen at the beginning, now Zhu Peide has to look at the face of the Zhang family, this transaction is a big loss!
