Chapter 146: Chinese New Year's Eve (Part I)!
Seeing that Shang Bin and Shang Jun had returned, Zheng Wentong got up and said goodbye to Shang Weimin.
"Uncle, when the spring begins next year, I will take my grandfather and grandmother to Yanjing to live for a few days, go to the square to watch the flag-raising, and visit the Forbidden City and the Great Wall. You are not in good health, you can get together with them in Yanjing when the time comes. Zheng Wentong was polite and detached.
Shang Weimin was very happy and patted the back of Zheng Wentong's hand, "Okay, your grandfather is an excellent soldier who was injured in the counterattack against Vietnam and made meritorious contributions." You take the two old people to see the flag-raising, it is a piece of your filial piety, if it is inconvenient, you can live on my side. ”
"No, no, it's more convenient to stay in a hotel now, so I won't trouble you. I'll see you next year when I have time! Zheng Wentong turned around and prepared to leave.
Shang Bin knew that Zheng Wentong was the main owner of the Maybach, and wanted to get close, "If you call me my uncle and father, then you have to call me my cousin, this is my business card." Next time you come to Yanjing, say hello to me, and I'll entertain you. ”
Zheng Wentong's expression was very turbulent, "I'm sorry, the secretary is not with me today, so I didn't bring a business card." Zheng Wentong didn't call his cousin, nor did he stretch out his hand, but just wrote "You are not qualified" on his face.
Zhao Hailong opened the door for Zheng Wentong, and the two of them left directly. Shang Bin saw that Zheng Wentong didn't even bother to say a polite sentence, and his face changed, "Who is this kid, so impolite?" ”
Shang Jun gloated there, "Others are not here to beg Dad to do something, why should they be polite to you?" ”
Shang Weimin looked at his unangry children, "He is your cousin Zhou Yuling's son Zheng Wentong, your aunt's own grandson." ”
"Every time I ask how your aunt is doing, you say it's okay. Now I know that you haven't been to your aunt's house for several years, and you don't even bother to make a New Year's call. ”
"What? If you start a broken company in Yanjing, earn three melons and two dates, buy a house and a car, and go to the golf club to swing two strokes if you have nothing to do, you think that you are among the celebrities, superior to others, and even your aunt looks down on you? ”
"Didn't you say last time that I would introduce Zheng Wentong to you? If you look at your performance today, are people willing to talk to you? ”
Shang Weimin felt regretful, when he was a child, his children were not around, he was busy with work, and his wife doted on the children, but the two children still relied on their parents to live when they became adults, and they achieved nothing.
Shang Bin was not convinced, "This is the New Year, why do you say such things, it's so disappointing." I'm pretty good here, at least I've called once or twice, and when Xiaojun saw the area code of Tongji, he didn't bother to answer it. ”
Shang Weimin saw that his son didn't forget to pull his sister behind his back at this time, and he was completely dead. "You think people are rude, and people think you are mud and can't hold up the wall. Zheng Wentong doesn't look down on you, a poor relative, so my cousin is too lazy to call, my old face is about to be lost by your brothers and sisters! ”
Shang Weimin knows that his children are completely unable to count on him, and the hope of the future of the Shang family lies in the third generation.
The preferred successor on his side is Yao Yuan, and Shang Weimin is also willing to help Yao Yuan again.
However, Shang Weimin also had a trace of thought in his heart, and when he saw Zheng Wentong sitting on a separate seat, he knew that Zheng Wentong's family had a deep grudge against Shang Bin and Shangjun's brother and sister.
Shang Weimin's side gave up the plan to mediate the conflict, and in the future, he would only contact Tongji through Yao Yuan, but he didn't know if Zheng Wentong, a little slippery head, was willing to bet on Yao Yuan.
On the morning of the 7th, Zheng Wentong flew from Yanjing to Jiangchu, and his cousin Zheng Wenbai drove to the airport to pick up Zheng Wentong, and the two brothers went home together for the New Year.
Uncle Zheng Xingmin bought Zheng Wenbai a top-of-the-line Passat, which was low-key but very comfortable to drive. Zhao Hailong made a cameo as a driver, and Zheng Wentong and Zheng Wenbai sat in the back row and chatted.
"You kid will tell me when he falls in love, if I don't go to Yanjing, I guess I will have to be kept in the dark by you." Zheng Wentong half-truthfully joked with his cousin.
Zheng Wenbai was a little embarrassed, "We weren't going to make it public, because of the Slope Public Welfare Foundation, I have dealt with Uncle Yao a few times, and I only know that he has a daughter, but I have never seen him." ”
"Later, I went to their unit to run errands, and an eldest sister in their unit received me. When she heard that I was single, she said that she would introduce me to someone, I thought it was a joke, but later the eldest sister really introduced Wen Na to me, and the second time I went back to their unit, it became Wen Na to receive me. ”
"Wen Na knows that the eldest sister has the intention of matching the two of us, so I don't mind, the two of us should know each other. Later, after adding WeChat, the two of us chatted and found that our interests and hobbies were quite consistent, and we were very comfortable with each other, and then she took the initiative to confess to me. ”
"After she became my girlfriend, I found out that Wen Na was actually Uncle Yao Yuan's daughter." Zheng Wenbai briefly talked about the love process between him and his girlfriend.
"Fate is coming, and you can't stop it. Why did you suddenly go to her unit to do something? Zheng Wentong asked without moving.
"There is a publicity activity in our department, which needs to connect with different agencies and units in the city, and all of them are our new staff members who enter the department to run, so I will randomly report to a farther unit, and I just reported to the Wenna unit." Zheng Wenbai replied.
Zheng Wenbai has no reason to lie to Zheng Wentong in this matter, so it is indeed a coincidence that he and Yao Wenna know each other.
If Yao Yuan really had plans to marry the Zheng family, he should bring his daughter over when the Slope Public Welfare Foundation was established.
Or when Yao Yuan went to Zheng Wentong's house to drink his nephew Zheng Baocheng's full moon wine, Yao Yuan would also make it clear to his uncle, and let the two young people take a look at each other first.
After all, it has now passed the era of the words of the matchmaker of the parents, if Zheng Wenbai did not fall in love with Yao Wenna, then this family business would still not be successful.
Cousin Zheng Wenbai has great ideas in major matters and will not be swayed by the opinions of his uncle and aunt. Looking at it this way, Zheng Wenbai and Yao Wenna's love is indeed a coincidence, not human intervention?
Zheng Wentong had to be cautious, and while his personal assets were growing rapidly, he had a natural distrust of the new members of his circle of relatives and friends.
Although sister-in-law Liu Yuping's parents are a bit snobbish, small problems can be tolerated.
The parents-in-law of the most important eldest brother really love their son-in-law and grandson, and this is enough.
Sister-in-law Liu Yuping knows the roots, is filial to her in-laws, and loves her son.
Although he and his eldest brother Zheng Wensong have blushed, the life of the younger couple is quite happy. There is no need to change a sister-in-law and add to the blockage of your parents' life in their later years.
Zheng Wentong and Bai Xiaolu have reached the point of talking about marriage, so he will be more cautious about the marriage of his cousin Zheng Wenbai and cousin Zhou Hongyu.
Family relationships are often one with one at the expense. This is why it is said that marriage is a matter between two families, not between two people.
When you are in love, the two of you don't have to care about anything, and it's no problem to love until you are old.
But when you get married, you have to consider the other party's family, can you get along with your future parents-in-law, and do your father-in-law and mother-in-law treat you?
A marriage that is not blessed by parents is not necessarily unhappy, but it is destined to have regrets.
If Zheng Wenbai and Yao Wenna get married, and Yao Yuan goes back to work in the city, in case he is arrested that day, then the impact may not only be Zheng Wenbai, but may also involve slope investment.
If Slope Investment goes bankrupt, Slope Investment's investment projects in Jiangchu City will be yellow, and the careers of Yao Yuan and Zheng Wenbai will also be affected.

Now that it has been determined that Zheng Wenbai and Yao Wenna are in love independently, they have not gone on a blind date, and there is no human factor.
So for Zheng Wentong, he only needs to observe and judge whether Yao Yuan is reliable, and then he can decide whether he wants to intervene in the investment project of Dongshan Machinery Factory.
This project may not be profitable if it is operated by others, but Zheng Wentong still has room for profit when it is operated. If Yao Yuan is really a potential stock, then he has to take precautions.
Zhao Hailong drove the Zheng Wentong brothers to the Yutan Hotel, where the Zheng family had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and the mother Zhou Yuling and the aunt Liu Fang did not have to work, saving worry and effort.
When the Zheng Wentong brothers entered the hotel, the manager Wang Zhongbing saw Zheng Wentong at a glance, with a smile on his face, "Mr. Zheng, your family is in the plum blossom hall on the third floor, and I will take you over." ”
Wang Zhongbing instructed the waiter, "Let the kitchen prepare hot dishes for the plum blossom hall." ”
Zheng Wentong saw that the Yutan Hotel was full of people, and the hall was almost full, "The business of the hotel is still so good." ”
"Now young people are reluctant to cook at home, so there are more and more families who go to hotels to schedule Chinese New Year's Eve dinners, and it may also be a trend in the future." Wang Zhongbing smiled.
"As long as the economic development is getting better and better, and the living conditions are getting higher and higher, then going to the hotel for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner will become a trend, after all, the couples of the 80s and 90s are too few who are good at cooking." Zheng Wentong concluded.
"Who's to say it isn't? Mr. Zheng, I'm here to discuss something with you, my brother Wang Zhongxun is also back for the New Year, and he is still on the highway back. My brother asked me to entertain Mr. Zheng first, and when he comes back, if it is convenient for you, you can take some time to meet and chat. Wang Zhongbing said cautiously.
Zheng Wentong thought for a while, "Your brother went back to our company last time, and it happened that I happened to be on a business trip at that time, so I just didn't meet him." ”
"Today's Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone still has to spend the holiday at home, I will stay at home for two days during the Spring Festival, if he comes back late, you are also welcome to come to our house to sit."
Zheng Wentong and Zheng Wenbai entered the Plum Blossom Hall, and Zheng Wentong had already heard his cousin Lin Miao's cheers, "Here, here, finally ready to eat!" ”
Grandma smiled kindly, "Okay, good, good, just rush back." Hurry up and sit down, the family should sit together and have a lively Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. ”
Lin Miao deliberately made a mistake, "Brother Wen Tong will definitely not work if he doesn't come back, today's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner said that he will pay for it." ”
Zheng Hualan joked with Lin Miao, "Don't worry, the elders are here today, and they will definitely not let you, the Moonlight Clan, pay the bill." ”
Lin Miao complained to Zheng Hualan, "Auntie, you really can't blame me, you have been persuading me to study hard, I worked hard in school, and my salary was three thousand and a half after graduation." ”
"I earn my own money and spend it myself, and I can't take it home with me. For example, those colleagues and friends who need to gnaw on the old or borrow money online, I think I am already good. ”
Lin Dong laughed at his sister Lin Miao's cheekiness, "How can anyone boast about himself, you don't gnaw at the old, but you gnaw at the brother." How many times a month do you send me shopping links, are you embarrassed to say? ”
Lin Miao said pitifully, "Brother, you really can't blame me, after all, you programmers have high salaries, so you should be targeted to alleviate poverty." Don't worry, when you find a sister-in-law, I will immediately cut off menopausal economic contacts with you and will not create family conflicts for you. ”
Aunt Liu Fang also liked this eccentric niece very much, and gave her an idea, "How much is your brother's money, why don't you hug Wentong's thighs and pluck the hair, it is estimated that you can change a house in our county." ”
Zheng Wentong was particularly funny, and stretched out his hand in front of Liu Fang, "Auntie, why don't you pull out two roots now, and I'll find you to change two houses tomorrow." ”
Zheng Wentong's words made the whole family smile, and the air was filled with a happy holiday atmosphere.
