Chapter 16: Family Feast (2)
There is no too much ornate decoration, and the whole hall looks faint and simple, and there is a hanging word on the right wall.
Ryoma spirit, under the vigorous pen style is a kind of anti-heaven killing in this, at a glance you know that there are so many years, the following payment is Hongrong, this villa Hongchen includes this time is the second time to come in, but even if this time I am prepared, but I am still shocked by the killing intention that comes to my face, and I hurriedly put my eyes away, afraid that I will fall into it, unconsciously, Hongchen is to his grandfather's heart once again rose to a new height, if the first time you enter to see it, it can be said that it is because you are still young and incapable, but now how to say it is also called one of the killing gods, but in front of this picture of words, I felt a little overwhelmed by the bloody meaning.
The appearance of Hongrong and others made the whole hall stand up, although Hongrong has withdrawn from the political arena, and also gave the position of the head of the family to Hongjiu, but everyone cannot deny that Hongrong is still the only spiritual pillar of the Hongjia family, and it is this old man who has transformed this family from an obscure small family into one of the few super families, and the hardships are unimaginable.
Hongrong sat on the main seat and said with a smile: Everyone sits, taking the opportunity of Xiao Chenzi coming back from country M, it can be regarded as letting the family come over to get together, old man, I don't have much idea now, I just want to see my children and grandchildren grow up healthily, and I am very happy to have time to come to see my old man. This passage from Hongrong's mouth is to make the whole banquet shrouded in a faint and sad atmosphere, Hongjiu coughed dryly, stood up, as the head of the family today, at this time must stand up, picked up the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile: The old man said yes, today Xiao Chenzi is coming back from country M, no matter what, it can be regarded as another reunion in the past ten years, this cup is for everyone here. As soon as Hongjiu spoke, everyone stood up at once, except for Hongrong, that is Hongjiu, and now Hongjiu is the head of the family, no matter what level, Hongjiu can also be said to be the most pinnacle man in the Hongjia.
And then everyone toasted each other, after all, this is the last family gathering has been seven or eight years, because even if they come back every year to pay New Year's greetings, they are absent because of various things, so everyone is very enthusiastic to greet, Hongchen looked around, he was looking for his little sister, he was very curious about his sister who had never met.
On the whole banquet, there are more than 20 people, some of them are relatively close to the side door, and some Hongchen doesn't know much about their names, looking at the toasts of these people who are called family members, for a moment I feel faintly sad, I have been abroad for a long time, and suddenly I stepped into this familiar and unfamiliar circle, I was a little overwhelmed, and the faces of the two people appeared in Hongchen's mind, and he muttered in a low voice: I don't know what those two guys are doing now, Ziyuan can't be taken by Chenxing's guy. "There is no movement in the whole banquet now, except for Hongchen, there is another person, if Ziyuan and Chenxing are here, they will definitely be surprised, because this person is Ziyuan's tablemate, Xi Murong, who is called the ice and snow beauty.
Xi Murong is not in a very good mood now, she was very unhappy when she was stimulated by Ziyuan and Yang Xue during self-study at night, and then within a few minutes of returning home, her father asked her to follow her brother Xi Jian to participate in the family party of the Hong family.
The Xi family can also be said to be a famous family in the capital, especially the old man of the Xi family can be said to have fought side by side with Hongrong, more or less relying on the trend of the Hong family, and has gradually climbed to a considerable position in the past few decades.
First, I also took the opportunity to let their fourth-generation juniors make friends with each other, and secondly, I also wanted to let my two little guys see the world.
Xi Jian does have this proud capital, can be invited to participate in the Hong family's family banquet, and can enter this villa, it has already made people think of a lot of things, not only an affirmation of the status of the Xi family, but also an affirmation that can reflect Xi Jian's own ability, in his early twenties, he is already a captain, and Xi Jian himself is required to be transferred to the field army to hone, it can be said that he is extremely calm, it can be said that he is the pillar of the Xi family, and there are successors.
Xi Jian is now talking with Hongyi and Hongkun very happily, after all, although everyone knows that the theme on the surface today is Hongchen, but after all, they don't know much about Hongchen, and they are abroad, relatively speaking, even if they have some skills, but compared to Hongkun and Hongyi, the two big hall masters of the TZ Party, there is not much deterrence and value.
Hongchen was also idle, tasting wine and eating alone. Hongfeng walked through the crowd with a wine glass and sat down next to Hongchen, Hongchen raised his eyebrows: Old man, what's wrong?" Hongfeng slapped Hongchen's head and scolded with a smile: Stinky boy, you still dare to tease Lao Tzu up, come, drink!
Hongchen smiled bitterly, picked up the wine glass in his hand and drank it all, and said half-loudly: Dad, Mom, why didn't you see her coming?
And my sister who has never met?" Hong Feng shook his head: Your mother is losing her temper with me again, let's go home with me after the meeting is over, after so many years, it has really hurt you as a child, your sister is still in the Tiankui faction, and it is estimated that there will be no ten years to come back. Hongchen shook his head and said: Dad, are the descendants of the big family all having to accept such a cruel ordeal, this world is always so contradictory, ridiculous. A trace of gloom flashed in Hong Feng's eyes, and he said helplessly: Life is like this, I don't know if you can see it so thoroughly now whether it is good or bad, there must be gains, there must be gains, there must be losses, fish and bear's paws cannot be both, although born in a noble family has the unimaginable wealth and background of ordinary people, but what he also bears is the heavy responsibility of whether he can continue the glory of this family, no matter how prominent the family was when it is facing extinction, the so-called relationship is vulnerable, and no one will help you. It seems to make Hongfeng recall the memories of the past, and sighed a little: Fortunately, I have an elder brother above, if it weren't for your uncle, I would really be ashamed of my father and grandfather, although I have been in business for many years, and it has reached a considerable scale, but these are useless for a family, but also a family in the capital of this cannibalism, those stinky money are simply floating clouds, the burden of my generation is all on the shoulders of your uncle, but your uncle has never been cold to me, the more he is like this, the more ashamed I am。 Hongchen smacked his lips, looked at his father, who had some silver threads on his sideburns, and opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, he knew his father's embarrassment, although the title of chairman of a DBJ International Group was so dazzling outside, but it was so inconspicuous in their political family, but Hongchen was a little strange why under this political influence, why did his father choose to abandon politics and enter business?
Just when Hongchen wanted to ask, Hongfeng was called by the old lady, and Hongchen had to keep silent.
Xi Murong, who was not far away, was in a very bad mood, although it was on such an occasion that could be said to be showing her face, but at this moment, all that lingered in her mind was Ziyuan's ancient face without waves, and several times Xi Jian thought that Xi Murong was pulling her out, but when she saw her sister's state, she also knew that even if she was called, it would be a bad atmosphere, so she went with her.
Xi Murong sent away some young people who were also from the foreign department, one was drinking stuffy wine, and her red cheeks were indescribably moving, which seemed to be under the influence of alcohol, which made Xi Murong's whole person look a little coquettish, with a hint of charm and indescribable temptation.
But everyone present knew that this beautiful girl was Xi Jian's sister, so even if she was itchy, she didn't dare to make an outrageous move, and this was on the territory of the Hong family, and she didn't look at the monk's face but also the Buddha's face.
Therefore, it was Xi Murong and Hongchen who saw a strange sight that were still sitting in place without moving at the banquet, but everyone tacitly continued to talk and drink with each other.
