After all, young people are the most likely to act impulsively, and after failing to get together with Xiao Shen, it is not impossible for Feng Lu to use Xiao Jin as a stand-in.

Old Man Xi's thinking was a little active at this time, and he couldn't help but make up the story between Feng Lu and the Xiao family brothers like a young man.

"Although I don't know much about Comrade Jiang and her lover, I also know that their cultural level is very high, so I naturally believe what you said, having parents like them is a blessing for the children of the family, and I also believe that under the cultivation of Comrade Jiang and his wife, their children will become the pillars of the country as you said."

Father Xiao said these words very sincerely.

When Old Man Xi heard this, his eyes flashed with satisfaction.

It's not that he's nosy, it's that he doesn't want to see a good family and a good child, because a move by the Xiao family that came out of nowhere was affected.

"You're a person who understands things, and it never hurts to see things through, no matter which one you are for." Listening to Old Man Xi's words, Father Xiao smiled and bowed: "What you said is true." ”

……

More than ten minutes later, Father Xiao said goodbye to Old Man Xi and returned to Xiao's house.

"You and the boss have something to hide from me."

Xiao's mother was sitting in the living room, and as soon as she saw Xiao's father enter the door, she immediately said something.

Instead of asking, she used a declarative tone.

"What do you mean by that?"

Standing in the center of the living room, Xiao's father stared at Xiao's mother.

"Not long after you went to Xi's house, the boss called and said that there was good news, but when he learned that you were not at home, he instantly perfunctory me, to say that there is nothing greasy here, I don't believe it."

Since it's good news, there's no reason not to let her know.

"You're thinking too much."

Xiao's father said lightly, and then went to the study, seeing this, Xiao's mother got up and followed.

"The boss asked you to call him back, you can call now." Xiao's mother followed up in the study, she closed the door casually, and looked at Xiao's father with a good eye, and Xiao's father didn't make this call in front of her, so she just stood and waited, and she wouldn't leave anyway.

"You ......"

Xiao's father had a big head for a while, and he didn't know what to do with Xiao's mother.

"Lao Xiao, you and I are already old husbands and wives, what do you need to hide from me with the boss?" Xiao's mother was obviously a little depressed, she said: "We are a family, can't we discuss and solve problems?" Could it be that you two think I'm going to be holding back? ”

Seeing that Xiao's mother was in a bad mood, Xiao's mother sighed, and he sat down on the chair behind the desk: "You can sit too." ”

Hearing this, Xiao's mother sat on the sofa nearby, she knew that Xiao's father was planning to tell her what he was hiding from her.

"You have to make sure that you don't get excited after listening to what I'm saying, and you can't do anything behind my back."

Xiao's father looked solemn, his eyes locked on Xiao's mother, and he said: "If you can't do it, it is very likely to cause changes in the eldest marriage, and at the same time it will affect another family, and it will also affect an excellent child." ”

"So serious?"

Xiao Mu's expression became serious.

Father Xiao nodded.

Xiao Mu: "Say it, I promise to listen to you." ”

"Are you sure?"

Father Xiao asked.

Xiao's mother glared: "You and I have been married for many years, can't you still believe me?" ”

"It's not that I don't believe you, it's that as soon as I say this, I'm afraid that you will forget all my words in impulse." Father Xiao said this, but he still told the matter between Xiao Jin and Feng Lu, after listening to what he said, Xiao's mother was directly stunned, and after a while, she came back to her senses, looked at Father Xiao fixedly and asked: "What is your interest is that the child Feng Lu had in his first marriage is the eldest of our family?" ”

Xiao's mother was shocked, and when she saw Xiao's father nodding, she said again: "Feng Lu was hit by the fact that our second child followed the Qin family girl to the countryside, and drank more wine for a while, and then lay on the same bed with the eldest of our family, and then she found out that she was pregnant, and married her first husband with the child in her belly, is this the case?" ”

Father Xiao said "um".

"How could she do that?"

Xiao's mother looked annoyed, she said: "She likes our second child, but she wants to sleep with our eldest child, since she is pregnant with our eldest child, why don't you make it clear to our family, but choose to marry another man with the child in her belly?" What does she think of our boss? ”

Father Xiao was silent.

Xiao's mother gritted her teeth: "The boss wanted to be transferred back then, it was related to Feng Lu's incident, right?" ”

Father Xiao: "I only heard the boss talk about it later. ”

Xiao's mother: "Then when did you two know that Feng Lusheng's first child was the eldest?" ”

"That's when she followed the boss to our door......" Without waiting for Xiao's father to finish speaking, Xiao's mother smiled angrily: "You two are capable, did she use the things of the year as a handle and ask the boss for money to block her mouth?" Tell me, how much did you two give her? ”

Father Xiao: "The money was indeed given to the Feng family's girl, but after Lao Feng knew about it, he asked for the money in his hand and personally sent it to the child's adoptive mother, but they didn't ask for it." ”

"No, who is the money now?"

Xiao Mu asked.

"Lao Feng saved it, saying that he was waiting for the child to be admitted to the university and handed it over directly to the child himself." After a pause, Xiao's father continued to say: "Today, I went to the old leader to ask the old leader to help inquire about the child's college entrance examination, and the boss called home, thinking that he wanted to tell me about it." ”

Xiao's mother didn't answer, but she said: "I heard someone in the compound talk before, saying that there is a young man who looks very similar to the boss of our family, I remember that I went home that day and told you about it, but you asked me not to listen to the wind and rain, and said that I like to think about it, now it's good, where is I thinking more, obviously what people say is the truth." ”

Father Xiao said in a deep voice: "Do you think it's good to spread the story of the boss and the Feng family's girl?" Do you think that the child's life experience is well known to everyone, and it is good for the boss, our family, and the child? ”

Hearing this, Xiao's mother was speechless for a while.

"The Feng family girl is not authentic, she is sorry for her first husband, but after the gay man knew the truth of the matter, he did not anger the child, and still regarded the child as his own child to raise, that is, the wife of the gay man who married later, and also taught the child as his own child, from a young age to now an adult, it can be seen that people are really good to the child.

So, when I heard about the kid, I agreed with the boss that I wouldn't tell you about it, lest you act impulsively behind our backs and make a mess of everything. ”

Father Xiao looked serious: "Do you know what that child's adoptive parents do?" One of them is a scientific research worker, the other is a well-known national athlete, and he was the top student in the national college entrance examination a few years ago, and now he is still a professor at Mizuki University. ”

After being silent for a while, Xiao's mother said, "Can't you recognize our eldest grandson?" ”

"The boss promised the kid that he would always maintain the current relationship."

Xiao Jin came to visit Xiao's father and Xiao's mother two days ago, and when chatting with Xiao's father alone, he told Xiao's father about the conversation between him and Mingrui in the hospital ward, and at that time, Xiao's father didn't say anything after listening to it.

"What's the relationship?"

Xiao Mu twisted her eyebrows, looking puzzled.

Father Xiao: "What that kid means is that the boss is in front of him, and he is just 'Uncle Xiao' in this life, and he is also indirectly telling us that he will not have anything to do with the Xiao family." ”

Xiao's mother was surprised: "The child knows? ”

Father Xiao nodded: "Yes." ”

Xiao's mother was puzzled: "Why didn't his adoptive parents hide it?" ”

"Some things can't be hidden, not to mention that the child is very smart, and lives in the same compound with the boss's family, and he doesn't look up to see him, just the appearance of the child and the boss, do you think he can't guess something?"

"I don't recognize us, it seems that he was raised by his adoptive parents!"

"What do you mean by that?"

Xiao's father's face was very unpleasant: "Let's say that Comrade Jiang and his wife are the child's adoptive parents, but our child is in his own heart, Comrade Jiang and his wife are his biological parents, this is not what you call familiar, it is Comrade Jiang and his wife who are really good to the child, and the child can experience this sincerity, and he regards Comrade Jiang and his wife as his own parents from the bottom of his heart." Besides, does blood really matter? In my opinion, nothing at all. ”

"Why doesn't it matter? If you are related by blood, then you are a family! ”

Xiao Mu retorted.

"That's a lack of knowledge!" Xiao's father looked at Xiao's mother, and he said: "Some parents have several children, but none of the old children are reliable, what can you say?" ”

Xiao's mother: "I can only blame the parents, because they don't raise their children well." ”

"What you say is reasonable, but in the same way, as adoptive parents, if you teach children who are not of your own blood, your children will naturally be close to your adoptive parents and will not pursue the so-called blood kinship. In short, I have made it very clear to you right now, you don't want to mess everything up, just keep the status quo and don't do superfluous things. ”

"Our eldest grandson is the top student in the national college entrance examination!"

"Don't take a bite of our eldest grandson! Besides, the child is the top student in the college entrance examination, and it has anything to do with us? ”

“……”

"What have you done for that child? Did you care about dressing and eating, or did you care about his education, or when he was sick or bullied, he stayed by his side as a relative to help the child out? ”

"Didn't we know about that kid earlier!"

"Don't make excuses for yourself. Whether it's you or me, or the boss, we haven't done anything to that child, so don't think about saying something in front of people and children today, what we can do, and the only thing we can do is not to cause trouble to him. ”

"Okay, okay, don't preach, I understand what you mean!"

Obviously it is his grandson, but he can't recognize each other, Xiao's mother feels aggrieved, but he also knows very well - what Xiao's father said is reasonable.

In the past few days, Mingrui received the admission letter from Beijing Foreign University, and then it was the day before Jiang Li held a banquet for Mingrui to celebrate.

"Can't I go?"

Xiao Jin came to the compound where Xiao's father and mother lived after work, and at this moment, he was sitting in the living room, his brows furrowed slightly, looking at Xiao's father and Xiao's mother sitting opposite him: "Why?" ”

"Does that kid look like you?"

This is the voice of Father Xiao.

"It's just that the eyebrows and eyes are five or six points alike, but what does it matter?"

Xiao Jin was puzzled, he said: "Mingrui knows the relationship between me and him, Comrade Jiang should also know, and their family lives in the same compound as me, although it is not common in daily life, but there are many times they meet, others don't say anything gossip when they see it, Dad, I don't understand what scruples you have in your heart!" ”

"Your dad is worried that the kid looks too much like you, and if you appear in the hotel, it will attract the attention of others......"

Without waiting for Xiao Mu to finish speaking, Xiao Jin spoke: "What is this?" Obviously, after Xiao's mother's explanation, Xiao Jin understood the meaning of Xiao's father's words, he said: "There are many people in this world who look alike, is it because they look alike, that two people who can't be beaten by eight poles are related?" ”

Father Xiao was silent, and after a moment, he said: "It's that I've thought too much, since you are going tomorrow, have you ever thought about how much gift money you will take?" ”

Xiao Jin: "One hundred on the surface, but I will give another red envelope." ”

"Let's prepare another red envelope too?"

Xiao's mother looked at Xiao's father.

"That's it."

Father Xiao nodded.

At the same time, the Feng family.

"They didn't inform us, if we went...... Wouldn't it be too good? ”

Feng Wei was called by Mr. Feng, at this time the two fathers and sons were in the study, Mr. Feng said that Mingrui was admitted to university and was the top student in the national college entrance examination, and then said that Jiang Li set up a banquet in the hotel to celebrate Mingrui, and asked Feng Weiming to go to the hotel with him to say hello to Jiang Li.

However, Feng Wei felt that showing up without receiving an invitation was a bit difficult to get by, and it was not very suitable.

"Do you care about your face?"

Old Man Feng looked directly into Feng Wei's eyes: "I don't care about this old man, what do you care?" Besides, who knew we weren't invited? Don't forget, no matter what, the Feng family is the child's foreign family! ”

"But we haven't been in contact with anyone for more than ten years, and we haven't cared much about other people's children, so if we don't appear at other people's celebration banquets, we are bound to be gossiped about!"

Feng Wei voiced his scruples.

"Being said by others can you lose two taels of meat?" Old Man Feng disagreed: "It's so decided, don't go back tonight, push me to the hotel at noon tomorrow." ”

Old Man Feng made the final decision.

“…… Okay. After a moment's hesitation, Feng Wei nodded, and then he asked, "But Lulu, do you want to say something?" ”

"What to tell her?"

Old Man Feng's face was dark, and he glanced at his eldest son: "Or do you want to find something to do, so that the family can have a good celebration banquet because of your sister?" ”

"Dad, what did you think of me as?!" Feng Wei felt wronged, he said: "I just think that Lulu is the biological mother of that child......

Before the words were spoken, they were truncated by Old Man Feng: "What about the biological mother?" What did she do back then, what should a biological mother do? Since she chose to leave her child behind, she is no longer qualified to claim to be a mother. ”

Feng Wei: "......" has nothing to say.

"Doing embarrassing things again and again, treating Comrade Luo Yanqing as the wronged leader, where did she get her face to appear in front of the man she hurt again?"

As soon as he talked about Feng Lu, Old Man Feng became angry, and he wanted to slap himself in the face, how could he raise such a despicable and shameless daughter!

"Dad! Lulu is not doing it right, she is also your daughter, her sister, as a family, we can't be like others......"

Feng Wei's words were interrupted by Old Man Feng again: "Why did I say two sentences about that evil girl?" I don't know the checkpoint, I can't act with my brain, and with my temperament, if I had known that she was this virtue, I shouldn't have asked your mother to leave her behind! ”

"Lulu can do wrong things again and again, after all, it's because we didn't teach her well."

After listening to Feng Wei's words, Old Man Feng looked at him quietly for a moment, and then waved his hand to drive people away: "Okay, you go out, I'll be alone for a quiet meeting." ”

"Dad, all the things Lulu did are in the past, there's really no need to mention it as soon as she talks about it!" Walking to the door of the study, Feng Wei turned his head to look at Old Man Feng: "In this way, you can be a little less angry, and it will not be harmful to your body." ”

Old Man Feng didn't answer, his eyelids drooped, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The next day, it was past eleven o'clock at noon.

Jiang Li's hotel for the banquet was not chosen at random, well, to be precise, he didn't choose it at all, and he was directly set in his own hotel.

Why?

It is because Jiang Li did not forget the promise to the old lady, that is, her grandmother, and regained the glory of Yujia Restaurant at the right time.

With the advent of reform and opening up, the restaurants belonging to Yu's family in Beicheng and several other big cities returned to Jiang Li's hands one after another, Jiang Li began to rebuild, showing Yu's family recipes and inheritance in the form of a big hotel.

After all, you have to keep up with the times!

Under Jiang Li's careful operation, the hotel rebuilt from Yujia Restaurant was fortunate to be among the first batch of five-star hotels in the country, and has an extremely good reputation.

"Godfather...... Why did you guys get here? At the door of the hotel, Jiang Guoan and Ming Rui accompanied Jiang Li to receive visitors, suddenly a jeep was driving over, and slowly stopped, and saw that the people who got down from the car were Luo Yanqing and Director Song, Jiang Li was a little surprised, but the smile on his face became very bright in an instant.

"Today is a good day for Rui Rui, can Yan Qing and I not attend?"

Director Song's eyes were full of smiles, and he patted Mingrui's shoulder: "Good job, give your parents a long face!" ”

Ming Rui stood beside Jiang Li, and he just smiled.

"Godfather, you go in first and sit down, we still have to continue to receive visitors here." Jiang Li said, looking at Jiang Guoan, and the next moment, Jiang Guoan led Director Song into the lobby.

"Dad."

Ming Rui called Luo Yanqing at this time.

"Hmm." Luo Yanqing responded, and then, he said, "Very powerful! ”

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Your father is praising you!" ”

Ming Rui was a little embarrassed: "My dad praised me on the day the scores came out." ”

"Happy, aren't you?"

Jiang Li asked.

Ming Rui understood what Jiang Li meant, and he nodded "um".

He was naturally happy to be praised by his father.

At this time, Jiang Li moved his gaze to Luo Yanqing: "Why don't you go inside and rest?" ”

"No, you don't." Luo Yanqing shook his head, and he said, "As a father, I should be here to accompany you to receive visitors. ”

Jiang Li: "Don't delay your work, right?" ”

Luo Yanqing: "It's okay. ”

"Grandpa Xi, you're here, please come in!" Seeing the old man Xi and Xi Guobang and his wife, as well as Xi Jingyu and Xi Chenyu getting down from a small car, Jiang Li hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"We're not late, are we?"

Old Man Xi asked with a smile.

"It's not too late, it's not too late."

Jiang Li said with a smile, seeing Jiang Guoan coming over, without waiting for her to speak, Jiang Guoan took two quick steps, and led Old Man Xi and his party to the banquet hall on the second floor with a smile on his face.

Because many guests have already arrived, Brother Jiang's husband and wife, Jiang Guosheng (Jiang Second Brother), and Jiang Boya are all upstairs to help Jiang Li greet guests.

"You're here, please come in!"

"Congratulations!"

Xiao Jin brought her daughter Xiao Tong and youngest son Xiao Xuan to come over with Xiao's father and mother.

Ming Rui called "Uncle Xiao", and then, Jiang Yilin led Xiao Jin and his party to the banquet hall on the second floor.

Just now, Jiang Yihong, Jiang Yilin, Jiang Yikai, and Jiang Yihao came down from the second floor and went to the door of the hotel to help lead the guests up to the second floor.

Speaking of which, there are several banquet halls on the second floor, which are not small in area, and can set up many tables and banquets.

Originally, Jiang Li set up a banquet to celebrate Mingrui this time, and only with people who were close to him, and invited Mingrui's substitute teachers of various subjects to gather, who knows, many people heard the news and came to say goodbye.

Fortunately, the hotel is its own house, and the kitchen is well stocked with ingredients, so you don't have to worry about too many guests and not enough banquets.

"Congratulations!"

This is the voice of Old Man Feng, and with him is not only Feng Wei, but also Fang Su.

Jiang Li looked natural and greeted the three of them with a smile.

Although it was unexpected that the Feng family would come, but the people had already appeared in front of them, there was no reason to refuse them, not to mention that the Feng family was Mingrui's foreign family after all, Jiang Li would not be careful not to wait to see the Feng family come to say goodbye.

gave an introduction to Ming Rui, but Ming Rui's expression was faint, and he politely greeted the three of them politely.

He didn't call Old Man Feng's grandfather, nor did he call Uncle Feng Wei, and similarly, he didn't call Fang Su's grandmother, but simply greeted "Hello" and "Thank you".

"Not happy?" After Jiang Yihao took the three of them away, Jiang Li saw Ming Rui's face tense, standing beside her without saying a word, and couldn't help but ask.

"Nope."

Ming Rui shook his head.

Luo Yanqing didn't say anything, but his eyes fell on Ming Rui.

Jiang Li: "The person who came is a guest, besides, no matter what, they have a certain relationship with you in blood, not to mention that they are here to say good news to us, you can't be unhappy, understand?" ”

"Hmm."

Ming Rui nodded.

"If only you could understand."

Jiang Li's eyes showed relief, she said: "If you participate in work in the future, it means that you have integrated into society, which means that you will meet all kinds of people, and it is possible to deal with these people. ”

Luo Yanqing: "It's right to listen to your mother." ”

Mingrui: "I'm listening. ”

"Oops! We're late! ”

Wu Yue's family came by taxi, as soon as she saw Jiang Li, Wu Yue was embarrassed, she smiled and said: "It's all my fault for my father, who was obviously ready to go out, but he was called by a neighbor to help, and when he was done, the time was a little tight!" ”

Jiang Li smiled and said, "It's not too late at all! ”

"It's good that you're not late."

Wu Yue smiled, and said hello to Jiang Li and Luo Yanqing with her lover, and when her eyes fell on Ming Rui, Wu Yue said: "The young man is very powerful!" ”

Ming Rui smiled: "Thank you!" ”

"Thanks for what? You are really amazing, Auntie praises you for not bringing any moisture! ”

Then catch the insects...
