Chapter 38: Reunion in England
The acquired restaurant is being renovated, and the family dinner has to be arranged in Yingshui Pond. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The decoration of the info restaurant is also followed up by Li Dazhi, and Li Haolong just provided a general idea.
The two beautiful girls who were a little overwhelmed were coerced by the two future mothers-in-law who still had the charm to sit together, while the men were unceremoniously pushed aside, and the beautiful name was that you drank and sat aside. During the banquet, they kept putting vegetables into the bowl of their future daughter-in-law, while they thought they were clever and asked all kinds of questions.
"Xiaoxue, what do your parents do?"
"Her mom and dad work in the government."
"I want you to talk more, drink with your father Uncle Wu, don't worry about women's affairs, unproductive children."
"Yes, Auntie, my parents work in the agency."
"Then why haven't I heard Xiaolong mention it, so let's go and visit."
"Oh, that's right, what do I say about my parents' work, it belongs to the secret agency, and it is inconvenient to mention it to the public."
"Oh, no wonder!" Li Yunliang listened to it heartily, and suddenly felt that it didn't seem right to say this, so he immediately said, "I mean, no wonder Xiaolong didn't say it last time he came back." ”
"The childish temperament of the state cadres is good, Ida, what do you do at home?" Liu Yun also waited for an opportunity to launch a spying.
"Me? I am from Wenzhou, and my family runs a small business. Ida grinned a little as she ate the food.
"Business, good business, the right door, adults also have topics. You say that this water is different, even the people raised are different, Jiangnan girls are water spirits, you see how handsome this child is, this skin. "Liu Yun is a shrewd woman who can speak well. But it sounds like she doesn't know Ada's family background, and it seems that her father didn't tell others the results of the investigation, so the mustard in Li Haolong's heart is completely gone. In fact, Li Haolong was quite worried, as long as something was wrong, let Ida know that he was being investigated, he felt that this little pepper could not go crazy on the spot.
"Yes, and girls nowadays really know how to dress up, you see this simple trick, it looks good without wearing gold and silver."
"Speaking of this, I remembered, come, Ada, take it, this is Auntie's gift to you." Liu Yun took out a somewhat exaggerated huge gold bracelet from her bag and put it directly on Ida's wrist, Zheng Haixia didn't expect Liu Yun to suddenly come with such a hand, she didn't discuss it before going abroad, she was a little stunned, this Aunt Liu is good at everything except love to fight, and it was also her idea to chase Li Haolong to send Han Shao to learn football together, but fortunately, it was just some careful thinking between women. However, Zheng Haixia quickly reacted, took off a jade bracelet on her wrist that had been worn for decades, and put it on Xiaoxue.
"Come, put this on, this is the heirloom of their old Li family, his grandmother gave it to me when I got married, and I originally wanted to give it to you when you got married, but...... cough, when to give it or not, you have to keep in mind that if you wear it, you will be the daughter-in-law of our Li family! ”
"Ahh This one...... I...... That one...... Hmm......" Xiaoxue turned her eyes to Li Haolong for help, and Li Haolong pretended to shrug his shoulders helplessly, which means that you put it on yourself, I can't help it.
"Don't look at him, as long as you want, that stinky boy dares not to marry you, I will beat him!"
In a burst of laughter from everyone, Xiao Xue's face was as red as a bloody crescent moon, and her head was lowered like a child who had made a mistake. Li Haolong, who has lived in the sports team for more than 10 years, does not have Han Shao's thoughts, and when he meets the right girl, his heart will naturally have a home, if you let Han Shao say that he will get married at this time, he will definitely not do it.
The lively family banquet was spent in such a harmonious atmosphere, and Li Haolong's original plan was to invite his father and his party to the club to observe in the afternoon, but Li Yunliang considered that his appearance would have a little impact on his son's hard-won prestige, so he resolutely rejected his son's kindness, but he couldn't resist his son's enthusiasm, and still agreed to meet with a few club executives in private to support his son.
In the afternoon, two prospective mothers-in-law and a prospective aunt were taken by two prospective daughters-in-law to visit Birmingham, while Li Yunliang and several others met with several executives led by Tom in a private club. Although Li Yunliang doesn't know English, his temperament of many years of ups and downs in the business world still conquered Tom and a few people, and Li Haolong's English himself is not too fluent, and the translation work is all handed over to Anfei, a capable female lawyer. The meeting was simple and casual, and there was no in-depth discussion of work, but a chat between the southeast and the northwest, and the meeting ended in the form of more than the content in Li Yunliang's thanks and please.
After only staying in Birmingham for one day and one night, Li Yunliang and his entourage returned to China the day before Christmas, and said that they had come to Christmas, but Li Haolong also knew that domestic affairs were very busy, and this time it was not because his mother begged his father for a long time to spare time, and before getting on the plane, Li Haoyue also deliberately pulled Li Haolong aside.
"Don't blame my dad for staring at it, this money seems to be a lot in the eyes of others, but our dad will definitely not rest assured, he is definitely not staring at this money, he is afraid that you will make a mistake in doing things for the first time, which will affect your self-confidence, don't look at him on the surface is quite calm, in fact, several times I went home and saw him still reading the report you sent back late."
"I know, sis, don't treat me like a child, okay? I already knew what Dad was thinking. ”
"Xiaolong, you have always been the little kid who followed me with snot in my eyes, but looking back, you have really grown up, your work in the UK is doing well, and you seem to have such a talent, your brother-in-law said so, I didn't believe it at first, but after carefully studying all your work, there are really some rules."
"No, I mainly listen to other people's opinions, especially Xiaoxue, who often reminds me." Li Haolong listened to the praise of the eldest sister who was like his mother, and scratched his head a little shyly.
"This Xiaoxue is good, my sister is also optimistic about her, she has a good temper, it suits you very well, and she is stronger than that Ida."
"Ida just has a stronger personality."
"Don't say it, it's really not a strong personality, this girl has a wild temperament and can't get it together, you look at Xiaohan's performance today, he can't hold her at all." It's still the eldest sister's poisonous eyes, think about it, it's true, how can Han Shao be Ida's opponent, a pure angry bag.
"Okay, I won't tell you more, I'm going to get on the plane, you remember my words, don't complain about Dad, work hard in the UK, listen more, watch more, think more and make decisions slowly, and Xiaoxue, you have to be good too."
"Well, we'll be fine, sister, you should give me a nephew soon, how old are you, I don't want you to rob my child to play when the time comes!"
"Phew, you still have to worry about my affairs, don't worry, it's going to be soon, I'm much easier this year, and I'm already planning."
Coming in a hurry, leaving in a hurry, and getting together with the whole family in Birmingham, Li Haolong can be regarded as a stable end this year.
