74. Chance encounters
Ning Xueqing really wanted to tell him that her Taobao store sold forty or fifty thousand yuan a day, and the net profit of one day was almost comparable to your son's commission for a month.
But Huo Bufan gently patted the back of her hand underneath, Ning Xueqing looked over, saw that he shook his head slightly, and signaled that there was no need to say more.
She knew that Huo Bufan didn't want to embarrass Uncle Hu too much.
After all, I'm here to ask for help, so why make the scene ugly.
She had no choice but to hold back the anger in her heart and stop talking.
And her silence made Hu Jianxin think that he was right, and he was even more proud.
Several members of the Ning family remained silent, watching him perform there alone.
Until Tangtang asked, "Dad, when can I eat, I'm hungry." ”
The embarrassing atmosphere, because the child's problem was alleviated, Deng Junmei looked at Hu Jianxin and asked, "Old Hu, what time does Zihang get off work?" ”
"It's time to get off work now." Hu Jianxin stretched out his wrist, looked at his watch, and then shook it twice, and said, "You see that this kid will waste money, he had a birthday a few days ago, and he had to buy me a watch, which cost more than 3,000." What to say that the poor play with the car, and the rich play with the watch, this is the style. If you want me to say, it's money to burn! ”
Deng Junmei's face was full of embarrassment when she heard this, and she didn't know how to answer.
Fortunately, Li Meilan saw that the Ning family was not very happy, and knew that it was enough to stop, so she said: "Okay, you can show a few words." What, Zihang estimates that it will take a while, since the child is hungry, let the waiter serve the food first. Let's wait a while, but we can't starve the children. ”
Hu Jianxin also nodded: "Yes, yes, yes, serve the food first, let the granddaughter eat first, these are the flowers of the future of the motherland!" ”
Both of them said so, and Deng Junmei was no longer polite, and called the waiter to serve the food first, so that Tangtang would cushion her stomach.
After the dish was served, Tangtang picked up the chopsticks and ate unceremoniously, only after two bites, he pouted and said, "It's not as delicious as Dad's cooking." ”
Huo Bufan smiled and touched her head and said, "Little gluttonous cat." ”
After waiting for about thirty minutes, even Hu Jianxin and Li Meilan were in a hurry, and Ning Guoxiang was even a little drooping.
He said that he would eat at 11:50, but now it is half past twelve, and there is no one in sight.
Hu Jianxin was also a little embarrassed, and was about to make a call to Hu Zihang when the box door opened.
Hu Zihang, who was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, walked in from the outside, and said with a smile as soon as he entered the door: "It's all here, I'm sorry, the company held a temporary meeting, and the boss personally presided over it, and the meeting was delayed." ”
Hu Jianxin looked happy when he heard this, and made a look of blame, and said, "The boss has a meeting for you, and he can't let you wait so long, and he won't see what time it is." ”
"There's no way, it's rare for the boss to come to the company, if he doesn't leave, who dares to go?" Hu Zihang looked confident, not polite at all, pulled out the chair and sat down, and said mysteriously: "Moreover, the boss is also eating here today." ”
"Huh? Do you want me and your mother to toast him? Hu Jianxin asked.
"Come on, what kind of person is that, a rich man with assets of more than one billion, he usually sees high-ranking officials and nobles, what's the matter with the two of you. Don't talk about you, even I'm not qualified. "Bearded Fairway.
Hu Jianxin sighed, and didn't say anything more.
Hu Zihang looked at Ning Xueqing again, and glanced at Huo Bufan by the way, but he didn't mean to say hello.
In the eyes of these neighbors, Li Shuheng is a dispensable little person, maybe Ning Xueqing will divorce him one day.
There is nothing to do with this kind of person, but Ning Xueqing, a famous beauty, is still very attractive despite being married and having a child.
Hu Zihang didn't care about Huo Bufan's existence at all, and said to Ning Xueqing with a smile: "Sister Qing, I haven't seen each other for so long, I miss me." What's the matter, let's have a drink later? ”
The tone was joking, but the words were somewhat disrespectful.
If it is placed in normal times, few people care, but today Li Shuheng is also there, what do you say about wanting to die, it is too indifferent to people.
But because they wanted to ask him for help, Ning Guoxiang and Deng Junmei couldn't talk.
Ning Xueqing frowned slightly, and without waiting for her to speak, Huo Bufan smiled first and said, "Zihang, right?" I've heard the name for a long time, and your sister-in-law is not very good at drinking, so I'll toast you for her when I go back. ”
"Then forget it, I'm still going to work in the afternoon, and I don't drink." Hu Zihang refused directly, which was very faceless.
The scene was slightly cold, Deng Junmei came out of the round in time and said, "What, it's already twelve o'clock, I guess I'm hungry." Let the waiter serve the food first, Lao Hu, let our Lao Ning accompany you for two drinks? ”
"My dad has been very mouthy recently, and he bought him a box of Moutai some time ago, and now he doesn't touch the Niulanshan that he drinks from Moutai every day." Hu Zihang said with a smile.
Although I don't know if he said it on purpose, since he said it, Deng Junmei had no choice but to say: "That...... Then take Moutai. ”
"Don't listen to this kid's nonsense, he's not an outsider, whatever Moutai you drink, just take Niulanshan. I haven't drunk with Lao Ning for a long time, just two whole drinks. Hu Jianxin said.
Ning Guoxiang was originally very unhappy by Hu Jianxin's fiddling just now, and now he was stimulated by Hu Zihang's Moutai, where can he put it down, and immediately said: "Don't drink Niulanshan, if you say it's okay to drink Moutai, then drink Moutai, it's not that we can't afford to drink it." Waiter, bring me two bottles of Moutai! ”
The waiter answered the door and said, "I'm sorry, there is no Moutai sold in the store, and the best thing is to drive for fifteen years, can you?" ”
"Even Moutai didn't open any restaurants!" Ning Guoxiang said unhappily, then stood up and said, "Then I'll go out and buy it!" ”
"Don't, Lao Ning, Zihang just said casually, you are still serious. Besides, if you invite you to dinner, how can you still be allowed to take wine? Hu Jianxin said.
Hu Zihang also stood up and said, "Then I'll buy it." ”
"Invite you to dinner, what wine will you buy?" Ning Guoxiang's eyes swept to Huo Bufan, who was sitting there, and suddenly became angry, everyone was like this, why are you still acting like no one? Can't you hear people look down on you?
He pointed at Huo Bufan and said angrily: "What are you doing sitting there, go out and buy wine!" Like a fool, you don't know what to do if you don't say it, do you? ”
Huo Bufan gently patted Ning Xueqing, who had an unsightly face, on the shoulder, then stood up and said, "Then wait a minute, I'll go out for a while." ”
Looking at the back of him leaving, Ning Xueqing regretted coming to eat this meal today.
If I knew it would be like this, I might as well not have agreed to it in the first place.
In this way, Ning Guoxiang and Deng Junmei were unhappy, and Hu Jianxin and Li Meilan were also a little embarrassed.
The only thing that can be considered normal is Hu Zihang.
He didn't care if Huo Bufan would be unhappy at all, and he didn't even pay much attention to Ning Guoxiang and Deng Junmei's reactions.
With the opening of the economic conditions between each other, coupled with his good earning ability and self-confidence, he has long stopped taking his former neighbors seriously.
Calling you uncle, that's polite, if you don't call you, you can only watch.
What's more, today it was Ning Guoxiang who begged him for help, and Hu Zihang had to be even more upright.
In a sense, this is a very typical villain's ambition, and it is a very common phenomenon in this society.
On the other side, Huo Bufan went out and was about to walk outside the hotel, but he heard someone shouting: "Yo, Brother Li." ”
He turned his head to look, but saw Fang Changsheng coming over happily.
"What a coincidence, you're here for dinner too? With whom? Do you want a piece? Fang Changsheng asked.
Huo Bufan glanced at the few people who were waiting for him not far away, and those people were the same as Hu Zihang, they were all suits and leather shoes, but the clothes were of a higher grade.
It stands to reason that Fang Changsheng is plastering at a construction site, and he shouldn't eat with such a person.
However, this is a private matter, and Huo Bufan has no intention of asking, so he said: "It's not convenient to be with your family, so let's wait until we have a chance to talk about it later." ”
"Family, forget it." Fang Changsheng said with a smile: "But since I saw it, I have to say hello when I turn around." So, I'll settle a few friends and then I'll be over. By the way, are you going to the toilet or are you going? ”
"No, my family wants to drink Moutai, but the restaurant doesn't sell it, I want to go out and see if there is a specialty store." Huo Bufan replied.
"Say it earlier!" Fang Changsheng slapped his thigh, beckoned to the back, and shouted, "Xiao Qi, bring a box of wine!" ”
The bespectacled, sven-looking young man hurriedly moved a case of wine under his feet.
"Help Brother Li move him to the box, is six bottles enough? Not enough to get another box, I brought more today. Fang Changsheng said.
Huo Bufan was even more surprised, although this package did not look very luxurious, he could see at a glance that this was a very popular Feitian Moutai in the market, with an average price of more than two thousand, and it was not something that anyone could buy casually.
