Chapter 1362: New Year's Tea Party
,
"That, Shao Ting's parents came today, we discussed it, Jia Ying and Shao Ting, the twenty-sixth of the month of the month of the engagement.
I think it's still arranged on Tan's side of the cuisine, there are so many people twice, it's too troublesome at home, so it's better to go to the restaurant to save worry. ”
At dinner, Qiaolian mentioned Jiaying's engagement.
Shao Ting went to pick up Jiaying from work in the afternoon, and he had already told Jiaying on the way, so Jiaying was not surprised.
"Well, my parents just look at the arrangement, and we don't need to prepare anything anyway."
The engaged woman is only responsible for the banquet, and some families have to prepare a set of clothes for the man, unlike the man who has to prepare the engagement, bride price, etc.
Jia Ying doesn't really care about any of this, as long as she can get engaged to Shao Ting smoothly.
Over there, Jiahe also said that there was no problem with the engagement banquet arranged in Tan's cuisine.
In fact, the Qu family has opened several restaurants, and this year, the Sichuan restaurant has also expanded, and the other two Jiahe are now also thinking about expanding their business.
However, this Tan family cuisine has always been famous for private banquets, with a variety of flavors and can suit different people.
Although the other restaurants are also good, they all have their own unique regionality, and it is good to change the taste to eat.
But this engagement banquet, I'm afraid that some people have different tastes and can't eat it, so in order to take care of everyone's taste, I choose Tan's cuisine.
"Yushu, you and Meilin will go to the store tomorrow to pick out two sets of men's clothes and come back.
You also know Shao Ting's size and figure, the quality of picking two sets of styles is good, no matter how much money it is, this will be counted in my account, and I will give the money when the time comes. ”
When getting engaged, the man generally has to buy clothes or make clothes for the woman, and most of the women will also prepare, which is the rule and cannot be left behind.
"Mom, look at what you said, my little sister is engaged, take two sets of clothes from me, and you still have to give money, isn't this a slap in the face?
No, the clothes are mine. Wan Ying laughed.
His mother-in-law is really interesting, how much money do you have for two sets of clothes? Her sister-in-law is engaged, and she still needs money, so let's go to the money.
"Don't, this is the rule, it's time for me and your dad to go out, so don't rob me. Anyway, it's all a family, and the meat is rotten in the pot. Qiao Lian laughed when she heard this.
The daughter-in-law is good, and Wanying also honors her a lot of money a year.
However, this filial piety is filial piety, the rules are the rules, and the clothes prepared for the man in the engagement can't let Wanying, the sister-in-law, come out.
As soon as Wanying heard this, she didn't say more, it's a big deal to find an opportunity to give more to her mother-in-law in the future, not on this little money.
The big guy talked and laughed and had dinner, Mei Lin and the others quickly picked up the table, washed the dishes, and cleaned up the kitchen, and Qiaolian wanted to help, and the daughters-in-law didn't let them.
The four daughters-in-law went to the kitchen to work together, and Qiaolian could only go back to the house to watch TV.
Waiting for Meilin and the others to clean up the kitchen, they all came into the house, and the family watched TV with laughter and laughter.
Sons, daughters-in-law, daughters, and grandchildren are all around, and the family is reunited and harmonious, not to mention how comfortable it is.
Although Jiaying is getting engaged, the Qu family doesn't need to prepare anything, so it's not very busy.
It's just that the Chinese New Year is approaching, and this year is another big family in the capital for the New Year, so I have to prepare some New Year's goods.
In the morning, Qiaolian arranged things at home, would go out for a walk, and buy some good things when she saw them.
In the blink of an eye, it was the twenty-third year of the lunar month, and Qiaolian told the children early in the morning to come back early to celebrate the new year.
As a result, as soon as the children left, they received a call here, saying that there was a New Year tea party today, and the old leader wanted to invite Zhong Hanxuan and his wife to participate.
Zhong Hanxuan came to the capital this time without publicity, except for going to the Shen family to meet Shen Sanjiang and meeting with some old subordinates and friends, he actually didn't want to alarm the leaders above.
But after all, his identity is here, how can he hide it? Especially at the Jiasheng wedding, I saw a lot of acquaintances, and some people knew that Zhong Hanxuan was coming, so they had to report to their superiors.
The leader knew that Zhong Hanxuan was in the capital, just in time for a tea party to be held before the year, and of course he would invite Zhong Hanxuan and his wife.
When Qiao Lian heard it, this is a good thing, but there is one thing, Zhong Hanxuan and his wife are not young, and they need someone to accompany them.
Qiaolian and Qu Weiyang are here, and they don't like to toss, so after thinking about it, they simply let Jiakang and Jiaxiang accompany them.
So at about two o'clock in the afternoon, the leader sent a car to pick it up, Jiakang and Jiaxiang helped Zhong Hanxuan and Feng Cuiying to get into the car, and the group sat in the car and went straight to the venue.
At the Spring Festival tea party, there were some old cadres and old leaders, many of whom were familiar with Zhong Hanxuan, and the highest leader also gave Zhong Hanxuan a special opinion.
chatted with Zhong Hanxuan for a long time, asking Zhong Hanxuan's body, current life, etc.
Zhong Hanxuan briefly talked about his recent situation, and he had to mention the care of the Qu family for him and so on.
The old leader was very happy, and specially called Jiakang to ask and praise a few words.
During the New Year, all units will leave work early, and Jiasheng, Wanying, Xinyue and others will all arrive home at about 3 o'clock in the afternoon.
At home, Qiaolian led people to make dumplings, and everyone hurried to help when they came back.
"Mom, where is my eldest brother and the fifth? Grandpa Zhong and Grandma Zhong are not at home, what are they doing? ”
Jiahe had something to do today, so I went to the unit, and when I came back, I didn't see the eldest brother and the fifth brother, so I felt strange.
Didn't my mother say that I would come back early today, and the family would be reunited?
"Oh, your eldest brother and the fifth brother went out with your Grandpa Zhong and Grandma Zhong.
There is a tea party today, the old leader invites you Grandpa Zhong to go, I don't worry, so I let your eldest brother and the fifth brother accompany you. Qiaolian didn't hide it, and told the children directly.
"Mom, you're talking about the tea party that takes place every year, right? Well-known people from all walks of life in the capital, and some old cadres and leaders participated?
Oh, that's a big deal. When Jiahe and Jiasheng heard this, they were envious.
It is not easy to go to a tea party, and ordinary people will never want to have such an opportunity in their lifetime.
"Well, it should be, I don't know, anyway, someone came to pick it up."
Qiao Lian didn't know much about this, anyway, the other party called, and someone was specially sent to pick it up, looking full of grandeur.
"My eldest brother and fifth brother have opened their eyes this time, waiting for them to come back, but I have to ask carefully."
Jiahe is very happy, although his brother said that he was going as an escort, it is also amazing, and he must ask carefully when he comes back.
"Don't talk about that, it's important to come over and make dumplings quickly, the family eats more, we have to hurry up, didn't you see Xue Qing and Xue Yu helping?"
Wanying didn't care about those, and directly shouted Jiahe to wash her hands and make dumplings. When Jiahe and Jiasheng heard this, they hurriedly went to wash their hands and make dumplings together.
Everyone worked together, and before half past five, the dumplings were all wrapped, so they went to the pot to cook.
The dumplings here had just been cooked, and there was movement outside, Jiakang Jiaxiang helped Zhong Hanxuan and his wife, came in from the outside, and followed a few staff members when they turned around.
When Jiahe and the others saw it, they hurriedly greeted it and helped Zhong Hanxuan and his wife into the house to rest.
Those staff sent Zhong Hanxuan and his wife back, and the task was completed, so they said goodbye and left.
