Chapter Eighty-Seven: Spring Festival and Holidays
"Mr. Si, then I'll go." A middle-aged man dressed as a chef said very politely.
"Master Zheng, I'm sorry for you." Si Mingyu sent him out the door.
This is a descendant of Master Zheng of Shaanxi cuisine, and he specially invited him to his home to cook the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
For Chef Zheng, it only takes two hours to cook a meal with pre-treated ingredients, which not only does not affect his family's income for the festival but also has an income of 100,000 yuan, and the cost of ingredients is also calculated separately, and even the two apprentices who help the cook also have 10,000 yuan each, so he is really happy to come and return satisfied.
Si Mingyu, his aunt's family of three, uncle and aunt, grandma and grandfather all gathered at their aunt's house, wrapping dumplings while watching the Spring Festival Gala, this has to be done by yourself to make sense.
After eight o'clock, Si Mingyu's mobile phone never stopped.
People like Zhao Hui and Zhou Youlin who have a good relationship will send a blessing message as soon as possible, and people like Tang Yan and others who have a good relationship will call to say hello.
The executives in the company are definitely going to call, and the other employees can just send a message of congratulations in the group. In order to liven up the atmosphere, Si Mingyu sent tens of thousands of red envelopes in the company group, not that he didn't want to send more, but he was always interrupted by phone calls.
As for the brothers in the dormitory, they are not so particular, and they directly start various fancy shows in the group for the local New Year's photos, and the voices are one after another.
Several elders such as Gu Shuanghui and Wang Jianguo, Jiang Xueyi, Luo Jinghui and other companies must take the initiative to call to greet them, and even Chen Qicheng, Mr. Fu, Li Shijianing, etc. must also be taken care of.
In general, the more important the person, the closer to zero when greeting.
Si Mingyu and Zhang Ningxi rang the bell directly to listen to the video, and then the two found a quiet place to chat, and cousin Wang Xinyan still wanted to eavesdrop, but in a blink of an eye, they couldn't find it.
Zhang Ningxi's family knows about Si Mingyu, and after returning home, of course the parents have to ask if they have a boyfriend at school, even if the parents don't ask, the seven aunts and the eight aunts have to ask, so they just need to write a standard answer, who will send a copy.
Since the parents are open-minded and tell the truth about their daughters, and it is not an unsightly thing, there is no need to hide it. So Si Mingyu also said hello to his uncle and aunt in the video.
Some people will ask, are the two developing too fast?
Yes and no.
There are a lot of so-called love at first sight, and there are many examples of people who get married on the plane when they get on the plane, do you say they are happy? For Si Mingyu and Zhang Ningxi, as long as their personalities are compatible, everything else is not a problem, and they don't need to bother with any material basis that ordinary people want to consider.
High school classmates made an appointment for a party, and time was not an issue for college students returning from winter break, so it was easy to set it.
This means that you can only organize after graduation, and after a few years of work, many people will not be able to come back for the Spring Festival, and this kind of activity will gradually disappear.
The time is at night, the place is booked in a mid-range cafeteria, the place is large enough to solve the problem of difficult to adjust, and the fixed price also saves the trouble of more refunds and less compensation.
Both boys and girls have been carefully dressed up, and many people have taken off the clothes of Nike, Adidas, Levi's and other brands and changed into second- and third-tier brand clothing such as COACH and Tommy Hilfiger.
Girls with better family conditions even carry LV or GUCCI bags, and boys show CK, Tissot, and Longines on their wrists. After all, the entry price is higher than that of a big-name watch.
And even though it's a class reunion, there are also people who go to school in the local area and bring their boyfriends or girlfriends who haven't been back during the holidays.
That is, there is not much that everyone can show off when they are still in school, show their clothes, or how handsome their boyfriend is, and be the main force of a club in the school, and show how beautiful their girlfriend is. If you work on it, it's even more interesting to compare.
In order to keep a low profile, Si Mingyu didn't wear a watch, but there was no way to wear clothes, his clothes were all big brands, so he couldn't run to buy a set just to attend a class reunion.
So as soon as he came in, he became the center of everyone's attention.
Is it because of the designer clothes on you? It definitely has something to do with this, but it doesn't have much to do with it. Because most people at this age can't tell the difference between genuine and high-imitation, there are indeed some people who complain in their hearts: What is X, what is high-imitation, who doesn't know what conditions in your home.
The main thing is the change in the image in the past six months.
Everyone knows that fitness is good for plasticity, both men and women, but this is on the premise of using the right way and method. Personal trainers are not cheap, and even if you can look up information on the Internet on your own, at least you have to have equipment. Whether it's buying or going to the gym, you have to spend money and time, and the result is often only the minimum requirements.
How has Si Mingyu exercised in the past six months? It is Dong Yanjiang's tailor-made exercise method for him, which is the most scientific and effective. You must know that the purpose of following this exercise is to mobilize every musculoskeletal part of the body and be stronger than others, so as to survive.
For the purpose of survival or for the purpose of collecting money, it is self-evident which effect is better.
Moreover, even if he collects money, Branson's level of 10,000 yuan per class is by no means comparable to those fitness personal trainers.
Hardware is even more difficult with software. What has Si Mingyu learned in the past six months, and who have he come into contact with?
When other people are chasing stars, he is investing in celebrities, others are still complacent about being able to drive out, when he doesn't like to touch nearly 10 million supercars, others are calculating how to spend their pocket money this month, and when he is happy for his girlfriend, he can buy one in every color slogan.
Of course, the price of excellence means isolation.
Ordinary classmates think that you are too good, and chatting with you has a feeling of self-shame, so it is better to stay away. Classmates with a bad mentality think that talking to this pretending to be X doesn't it seem like I'm too snobbish, and I'll ignore you. The classmates who wanted to take advantage of this party to pretend were robbed of the limelight, so naturally they would not give a good look.
However, a few female classmates have thought about it, and now Si Mingyu's appearance and bearing are definitely far superior to those of second-tier stars. But considering that their aesthetics are still online, these female classmates with less than seven points should be left to others, after all, not every class is out of school, and the appearance of most ordinary people is seven points.
So everyone was very polite on the surface, but after the polite words were finished, there was no follow-up.
Si Mingyu didn't care about this, he studied hard in high school, even after class, he was brushing up on questions, and he didn't have much contact with his classmates, and he didn't participate in the party because he was a member of this class and didn't want to appear too unsocial.
