Chapter 3: The Miraculous Longevity Peach (1)
The next day, Chen Hao found the suit he bought to participate in the student union election, put on a tie, dressed neatly, and carried a food box in one hand.
When he was about to go out, he glanced at Xiao Jin and said: "Xiao Jin, I came back late today, you are hungry and there are steamed buns in the house, which is the steamed bun you ate yesterday, take it yourself!"
"Whew!" Kim replied, wagging his tail.
Then Chen Hao went out of Funiu Village, took the bus to the county seat, and soon came to the county seat.
Although the Gaoling County Hotel is not the most luxurious hotel in Gaoling County, it is the most face-saving hotel in Gaoling County, because it is not a person with status, and it is impossible to hold a banquet in this hotel.
When Chen Hao came to the door of the hotel, he saw a huge banner that read, "Warmly celebrate the eighty-third birthday of Mr. Liu Dabing".
There is also a special place to receive gifts at the gate. Chen Hao naturally didn't want to take only one longevity box empty-handed, so Chen Hao took out the red envelope prepared in advance and walked to the door and handed it to the person who specially received the gift.
The man glanced at Chen Hao and didn't say anything, because there were all kinds of people who came to participate in the birthday, Liu Chuan's friends, fellow villagers, colleagues, subordinates, and relatives and friends in Old Man Liu's hometown, anyway, it was a mess, so as long as you paid the gift money, you could go in.
Chen Hao walked into the hotel and saw that the lobby was red and gorgeous, and the festive atmosphere was very strong.
Now there are a lot of people gathered in the lobby, brightly dressed, old-fashioned, all kinds of people, like Chen Hao, who are not conspicuous at all.
Chen Hao found an inconspicuous place to sit down and waited quietly.
When it was almost twelve o'clock, there was a round of warm applause in the hall, and I saw an old man with crane hair sitting in a wheelchair, under the impetus of a girl who was dressed sassily, had beautiful long hair, and a delicate face, slowly entered the hall.
"Welcome to the old man!"
The host sang loudly at the right time. Immediately, the applause in the hall became even more enthusiastic.
Under the introduction of the host, Liu Chuan's family history, Liu Chuan's growth history, and Liu Chuan's achievements were quickly broadcast.
"Next, everyone presents gifts to congratulate the old man on his birthday!"
When Chen Hao was about to fall asleep, when he heard this voice, he suddenly felt refreshed.
"Grandpa, I've been practicing calligraphy recently, and this is the Baishou post I wrote. ”
After the host's voice fell, the beautiful girl who was pushing Liu Dabing's wheelchair stepped forward, then took out a scroll and said playfully.
"Yes, yes. Lingling has also begun to transform into a lady, and her grandfather is very happy. ”
Liu Dabing took Liu Lingling's scroll, and his old face smiled.
Followed by Liu Chuan, a big developer, Liu Chuan is a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties, with a square face and thick eyebrows, and he gave the old man a gilded ancient Buddha, because the old man believes in Buddhism.
After Liu Chuan's send-off to the Buddha, Liu Chuan's business partners and some subordinates gave their own special birthday gifts. Some people give away things that are very valuable in order to attract attention.
"Alright, it's my turn!"
Chen Hao saw that the time was almost up, touched the longevity box in his hand, stood up and said loudly: "Chen Hao of Funiu Village, congratulations to Grandpa Liu on his birthday!"
As he spoke, Chen Hao walked on the red carpet with a longevity box in his hand, and was about to walk towards Old Man Liu with a faint smile.
"Grandpa Liu, on behalf of my father Zhou Chunsheng, I wish the old man a long life and a hundred years of happiness, such as longevity in the East China Sea than Nanshan. ”
Suddenly, a loud voice came from the entrance of the hotel, but I saw a man in a small suit walking in, he was Zhou Tianpeng.
I really don't know if it's a coincidence, or if it's a narrow road.
Zhou Tianpeng walked into the hall and saw Chen Hao at a glance, and immediately laughed coldly: "Yo, the hillbilly also came to celebrate Grandpa Liu's birthday, but I don't know what gift I can give, I shouldn't have picked two wild peaches on the mountain." ”
As Zhou Tianpeng said this, the hall was suddenly silent, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that these two people knew each other and were still opposed.
"Zhou Tianpeng!" Chen Hao's eyes flashed with anger, and he shook his palm vigorously.
But Chen Hao did not act excessively, but glanced at the colorful gift box held by Zhou Tianpeng in his hand with deep meaning, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Zhou Tianpeng, mine is a wild peach, could it be that you are a fairy peach, hum, you have a gorgeous appearance and pretend. ”
"Heh, you hillbilly really have a bit of knowledge, and I'm still a fairy peach. ”
"Grandpa Liu, on behalf of my father, I will send you a pair of fairy peaches, I wish you eternal happiness!"
Zhou Tianpeng was stunned for a moment, as if he was surprised to be guessed by Chen Hao, and then stepped forward, bowed to Old Man Liu, and opened the gift box in his hand.
"Wow, what a beautiful peach!"
"This fairy peach looks crystal jade, and at first glance, it is a high-grade jade carved by a famous artist. ”
"It's a big deal, it's a big deal!"
As Zhou Tianpeng opened the gift box, there was a burst of exclamations in the hall. Even if Chen Hao has hatred for Zhou Tianpeng like this, he has to sigh that Zhou Tianpeng's hand is really big.
"Hehe, your father has a heart!" Liu Dabing looked at the two longevity peaches, and a flash of joy flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, this longevity peach carving is exquisite, and it is carved with high-quality multi-colored jade, which is really rare. ”
Liu Chuan glanced at Yuxian Tao, nodded involuntarily, and spoke highly of it.
Listening to the admiration in the hall, as well as the words of Old Man Liu and Liu Chuan, the corners of Zhou Tianpeng's mouth rose slightly, his chest straightened, and his eyes eagerly looked at Liu Lingling who was standing next to Old Man Liu. The real purpose of his preparation of such a generous gift is to gain Liu Lingling's favor through this matter, but it is Liu Lingling's figure that keeps him awake all night.
"It's going to be grandstanding, and this girl hates this kind of person the most. ”
Seeing Zhou Tianpeng's eager gaze on her face unscrupulously, Liu Lingling suddenly snorted coldly and twisted her face to the side, she was afraid that she would not be able to help but beat this guy.
"Ahem. It seemed that he also felt that his gaze was inappropriate, Zhou Tianpeng coughed dryly, touched his nose, and suddenly saw Chen Hao standing next to him, with a bad smile on his face: "Hillbilly, don't you light up your gift and let the big guy open his eyes?"
Hearing this, everyone's eyes suddenly fell on Chen Hao, some gloating, some curious.
"Of course my gift will be taken out. And a hundred times stronger than you. ”
Chen Hao looked at Zhou Tianpeng with a wicked smile on his face, and wanted to punch him, but he knew in his heart that he couldn't do it, because he didn't have the capital to be arrogant now.
"Grandpa Liu, the gift I gave you is also a pair of fairy peaches, I wish you good health and longevity. ”
Chen Hao knelt on one knee and performed Chinese etiquette in front of Liu Dabing, then opened the gift box in his hand, and suddenly two shou peaches steamed with flour appeared in front of everyone.
