Chapter 13: Climbing Relatives and Paying Nobles

After the inspection and donation ceremony, the principal of the No. 2 Middle School of Drinking Water County arranged a dinner to entertain the leaders at noon.

Because he knew the relationship between Zhou Liqi and Chairman Song, without waiting for Chairman Song and the leaders to say, Principal Xiao took the initiative to call Zhou Liqi and Li Jie to sit with him. Li Jie couldn't wait to participate in such a banquet, but these nobles today are something he usually can't reach if he wants to.

According to the instructions of Deputy County Magistrate Luo, the dinner was arranged in the drinking water house.

Drinking water is the most characteristic restaurant in the county of drinking water, which is different from the general luxury hotel, its characteristics are not modern luxury, but antique, unique style.

Luo Ming knew that a person like Song Jianye, who was used to living in the metropolis, would be more suitable to entertain here.

The restaurant is divided into several small houses, and the deputy county magistrate came, of course, arranged the best house.

Entering the small courtyard, I feel really extraordinary, the small courtyard is not big, but the decoration is red and willow green, a small guest room in the courtyard, two symmetrical wooden windows are carved with exquisite patterns. There are several calligraphy and paintings of celebrities hanging on the walls of the interior, and the whole arrangement is full of an ancient style.

The group sat separately according to the rules of officialdom, vacating four positions in the middle, Chairman Song and County Magistrate Luo sat in the middle, and Director Wang of the Education Bureau and Principal Xiao sat on both sides.

The meal was arranged by Principal Xiao a long time ago, so after a while, a few special dishes of drinking water were served on the table.

Although President Xiao is sitting in the east today, with two high-level leaders here, he doesn't have much right to speak. Song Jianye is a guest, so everything is arranged by Deputy County Magistrate Luo Ming.

According to etiquette, County Magistrate Luo first toasted Chairman Song. Then there was Director Wang and President Xiao. In the end, the others toasted Mr. Song together.

After the toast, Song Jianye first used the chopsticks to taste the dishes, and then everyone changed their chopsticks.

The dishes in Shuishuiju are really good, delicious and unique, but at this time, Song Jianye's mind is not on tasting dishes, he is thinking about another "dish" sitting opposite the seat.

He put down his chopsticks and was thinking about saying something to Zhou Liqi, but Li Jie, who was sitting next to Zhou Liqi, stood up.

Li Jie pulled out a chair and walked quickly to Song Jianye's seat, picked up the wine dispenser and poured a glass for Song Jianye and said: Uncle Song, the younger generation borrows flowers to offer Buddha, and I will give you a glass alone.

For the title of uncle, Song Jianye sounds a little unnatural, because the age gap between him and Li Jie is not that big.

In fact, Li Jie is clinging to his relatives, and it is definitely not okay to call him eldest brother, because the relationship has not yet reached that point. Mr. Song felt that he was not close enough, and he wanted everyone here to realize that he and Liqi and Chairman Song had a closer relationship that others did not have......

Song Jianye was about to get up, but was held down by Li Jie with one hand, "The juniors toast the elders, and the uncle doesn't have to stand." Li Jie said flatteringly. So Song Jianye didn't get up, but sat down and drank the glass of wine.

Putting down the wine glass, he looked at Zhou Liqi, and was colliding with Zhou Liqi's eyes, only to see that Zhou Liqi had blushed. Usually she is a little disgusted by her husband's behavior of liking to tie up leaders, but now Li Jie's behavior is not just to please him, but to climb power and attaching nobility nakedly!

But Song Jianye enjoyed this feeling very much.

There is no harm if there is no comparison, he wants Zhou Liqi to know how good he is, and how clumsy her husband Li Jie is compared to himself!

looked at the beautiful face that was white and red, and her face was like a peach blossom. He couldn't help but wonder if it was really a flower stuck in cow dung.

And in the face of the shy and a little pitiful Zhou Liqi, he felt a little pity and wanted to protect her.

He doesn't want the woman he likes to suffer a little bit of grievance.
