Chapter 721: The Wedding Banquet
Hou Jinzhi was a little tempted. She said, let my dad come and see it, too. Hou Jinzhi didn't expect that when he returned to the grocery store at home in Xicheng, he was busy at night, so he mentioned to his father Hou Hongzhong that Gu Dong of Cigarette Monopoly Co., Ltd. arranged for Liu Cashier to take her to Yin Street to play and tell her.
When he heard that Gu Junshui was a matchmaker and planned to introduce Qin Caixing, the new general manager of his company, to his daughter, Hou Hongzhong did not agree, saying Mr. Qin, I know, I met him last time I bought goods, and he is quite good, but he is older, and it is estimated that he is more than 20 years older than you, no.
Hou Jinzhi was silent. Speaking from her heart, she is willing, because she is such a big girl, it is impossible to live with her father all the time, and it is very tiring to plate this shop every day, if she gets married, I don't care, I want to be relaxed.
Another point, she looked at the five-element house that emitted a five-color luster where Qin Caixing lived, and she was very envious; In addition, there is a stop at Yinjiekouzi, where you can see the river, fields and mountains, and the scenery is pleasant.
Hou Jinzhi is a filial daughter, she experienced a car accident from the yang world to the underworld, and the car accident was completely caused by her father, and it can be said that her father killed her. But she doesn't hate her father, she is still so filial. At present, her father raised objections to her marriage, but she did not rebel, but she still followed her father and worked in the grocery store.
The next day, Cashier Liu made a special trip to ask Hou Hongzhong's grocery store in Xicheng, and asked Hou Jinzhi how she was after dealing with a group of customers. Hou Jinzhi shook his head slightly, then walked out of the counter and whispered to her, my father disagrees. Cashier Liu said "oh" and left.
On the third day, Hou Hongzhong drove a truck to Gu Junshui Company to enter the cigarette, and when paying, the payer issued a ticket, but returned the 100,000 Pu coins paid by Hou Hongzhong to him, saying that we Gu Dong said, this car of cigarette money will not be collected, and it will be given to you.
Hou Hongzhong secretly thought: This must be Gu Dong's relatives for President Qin and gave me this car of goods as a dowry. He has always loved money, and he is also a little tempted. But let's talk about face, how can it be done? Since your company doesn't charge money, I'll return it. A gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, and I casually get a car of cigarettes from your company, isn't it a gentleman who loves money and has no way to take it?
There is a way, there is a way. Suddenly, he heard someone talking behind him, turned around and saw that Gu Junshui, a big man with a thick body, walked towards him from the side of the cigarette storage warehouse, and smiled.
Hou Hongzhong greeted him respectfully and said, Gu Dong, you have a way, please tell me the way.
Don't talk about it here, you go to my office, and Gu will talk to you. Gu Junshui said calmly.
Hou Hongzhong followed Gu Junshui through a stone road, walked out of the courtyard gate, in front of which was a European-style structure building, built by the ghost clan of Pu Zhuya, with a round spire on the top of the building, pointing straight to the sky, as if receiving information from heaven, looking solemn and mysterious.
Entered Gu Junshui's office, of course, it was the thing he talked about, Hou Hongzhong was prepared, he was not good at rejecting directly, he only said tactfully, my daughter has reached the age of talking about marriage, I am a little worried now, once he gets married, I am the only one in the grocery store, I am too busy, and there is a shortage of manpower.
This is easy to do, draw someone from our company to help you do business. Gu Junshui said so.
Hou Hongzhong didn't believe others because the person he invited to help with the business last time avoided him and stole money, but it was not appropriate to say it, so he had to euphemistically say that if I find a person with good moral character to help me do business, I will pay a higher salary.
Alright! That's it. Gu Junshui's speech was crisp and neat.
At noon that day, Gu Junshui invited me and Cashier Liu to accompany Hou Hongzhong to scoop a meal in a restaurant on Yin Street, and the atmosphere at the table was lively.
When toasting, Gu Junshui still looked at me and made a joke seriously, Mr. Qin, you can call Master Hou a father-in-law in front of us! I started to drink a few glasses of wine, and I became bolder, so I took the cup and clinked glasses to Hou Hongzhong, saying that you recognize me as a son-in-law, so I drank the wine and shouted again.
Mr. Gu's media, how can Hou not recognize it? Hou Hongzhong said with wide eyes.
As soon as the words fell, I drank down the glass of wine I was holding. Then shout Dad, if the next time I marry and have a happy event, we will be the host, and invite our company leaders and employees in the underworld to drink wedding wine with you and my friends.
Everyone laughed and cheered in unison, and they all said that I said it well! After that, Cashier Liu proposed to take Hou Hongzhong to the mouth of Yin Street to see the Wuxing house that would be used as the wedding house for Hou Jinzhi and me, and the natural scenery there. After Hou Hongzhong read it, he was very satisfied.
Soon, Gu Junshui looked through the imperial calendar to help me choose a good day and auspicious day, and set up a team to welcome relatives, beating gongs and drums, and welcoming the suona to marry Hou Hongzhong's daughter, Hou Jinzhi, entered the Yin Street Entrance, and my five-element house that had been used as a cave house to complete the marriage.
The wedding banquet was held in a hotel on Yin Street, and when I toasted with Hou Jinzhi, we toasted a special guest, Hou Jinzhi's brother Hou Dabao. Hou Jinzhi was surprised for a while, her face sank, and she gently spit out a questioning sentence in her mouth, brother, are you here too? Hou Dabao didn't know if he heard it, he didn't answer, he just looked at me and said, brother-in-law, congratulations to the two of you, tie the knot, spend a full moon, and be happy for thousands of years!
Thank you Jiyan! After saying that, I drank all the wine that was stretched out in front of Hou Dabao, and told him, congratulations to my brother and sister-in-law.
Hou Dabao also finished drinking the glass of wine, but just looked at Hou Jinzhi who was wearing a bridal corsage, and seemed to have something to say to each other, but they didn't say anything. Of course I know what their brother and sister are thinking.
Hou Dabao wanted to say, sister, I heard that you were killed in a car accident in your hometown in Dongtuguo, but I didn't know that after you became a ghost, you came to Macau and married Qin Caishen, what an accident! This is joy in sorrow, joy with sorrow, sorrow and joy, and I really can't tell whether this is joy or sorrow.
Hou Jinzhi wanted to say, brother, I died in a car accident in my hometown in Dongtuguo, did you also suffer an accident in Macau? Why do you say that, I'm a ghost clan member now, if you don't die, how can you go to the ghost clan wedding banquet that I held with your old sister?
Hou Jinzhi didn't know, on the night of the candles in the cave room where I was having fun with her, after a burst of joy on the marriage bed, I told her that on the eve of the wedding banquet, I used the spiritual power of the consciousness that I had cultivated in the meditation of Guanzi to temporarily ingest Brother Dabao's spirit into the netherworld, and told him about my wedding with you, so that his spirit appeared at today's wedding banquet.
I also emphasized, Jin Zhi, your big brother Bao is just a spirit body, and the spirit body is here, it does not mean that he is suffering and dying, his physical body is still alive in the yang world, but his spirit body has left the physical body, and he will be groggy all day today, and he can't keep his spirits up. However, after he has eaten the wedding feast, I will use my Divine Power to send his spirit back to its original body, so there will be no problem at all.
I mean! Why is Brother Dabao here? It turned out that you invited it. When Hou Jinzhi said this, his tightly knit brows were loosened, and a smile bloomed on his face.
There is another thing, I didn't tell my newlywed mother, when her brother Hou Dabao was leaving, he approached me and whispered, brother-in-law, I have one thing I want to ask you, last time a gambling friend asked me, I didn't have much face, I went to Hongfa Casino to gamble, but without your secret help, I lost 4 million Pu coins that night, miserable! Brother-in-law, next time you gamble, can you secretly help me as before, so that I can get my capital back?
I glared and whispered in a bad voice, didn't I tell you? Tell you not to gamble, people ask you, can't you find a reason or lie and excuse yourself?
Brother-in-law, next time you bet on you to help me secretly, I won the capital back, and then I will wash my hands in the golden basin, if I want to gamble in the future, lose again, and lose my family, I am embarrassed to come to you, brother-in-law, you think about it! Hou Dabao said it quite pitifully, and looked at me expectantly.
I heard him call him so affectionately, he used to call me Qin Caishen, but now because I am married to his sister, he calls me brother-in-law, he and I are the brother of the inner man who can't be changed, although I am a ghost in the underworld, he is a man in the yang world, but I can help him, in this relationship, I can't help it.
At that moment, Hou Jinzhi heard that I had cultivated an amazing Yigen divine power, and said that she suddenly remembered something and asked me to help her. Asked what was the matter, she said that before her death, there was a female classmate named Qian Fufang in Qianzhuang, not far from her home, who was admitted to Zhongyuan University, but her family was poor and had no money to go to school.
But I always wanted to help her, my father didn't die at that time, and he also opened a grocery store in Yangjian, and his business was good and he made some money. I said to my father, Dad, I still want to repeat the study for a year, and I need a repeat fee of 4,000 yuan, and my father promised to support me, saying that you will repeat the year this year, if you are not admitted to university, don't think that I will give you money to repeat next year. I said yes.
In fact, I am tired of reading, I can't read it, sometimes I read a book and read a few pages and my hair is dizzy, it seems that I am not the material for reading, I have self-knowledge. I borrowed money mainly to help Qian Fufang in an emergency and pay for her tuition and fees for college.
When Qian Fufang got my loan, she was about to make an IOU for me to hold in her hand, she looked up and said, Jin Zhi, you are my best friend, ordinary people will not lend me money, I borrowed this money from you, I can't pay it back for the time being, I may have to wait until I graduate from college and join the job, and then slowly pay it back to you. In order to thank you, I am willing to calculate the interest of 4,000 yuan, the annualized rate of one penny, okay?
I said, don't stop, your family is so poor, just pay me back the capital slowly or all at once. She said, thank you so much, you're such a nice person.
So, she typed an IOU of 4,000 yuan to me, and I put it in my eyes. Unexpectedly, it rained heavily that day, I didn't bring an umbrella on the way, my body was very wet, I changed my clothes when I got home, I forgot the IOU, who knew that when I remembered, my mother who has always been diligent had washed the dirty clothes I piled up in the room, and then looked for the clothes and turned out of the clothes to see, the IOU had become crumbs, like mud-like powder, there was no way to identify.
I immediately went to the money village in the neighboring village to make it clear to Qian Fufang, and I was embarrassed to ask her to give me another IOU, she listened to my explanation, and said with a smile, Jin Zhi, I have such a good relationship with you, you lend me 4,000 yuan to go to school, and when I graduate and work, I will be rich, if you don't return the IOU, I will also pay you back, you can rest assured! I'm not that kind of person.
Listening to her say this, I took a reassuring pill, and when I saw Qian Fufang's broad face and big ears, her face was fair, she had both the delicate air of a girl and the atmosphere of a boy, and she looked frank and swaying, and I was relieved.
