Chapter 199: Call Me Xiao Liu
If Zhang's mother had been impressing Zhang Xinran with her filial piety, she really couldn't have saved Zhang Xinran from following her home in the end, but Zhang's mother always moved out of Zhang Minsheng's total hardships in order to climb up, which made Zhang Xinran angry.
Officialdom climbs up, if it relies on its own ability, it is indeed good. How can you sell your sons and daughters in exchange for such an opportunity?
"Mom, you don't need to say it, since my dad wants to climb up, let him marry Mayor Liu by himself, I have someone I like." ”
"You kid!"
Zhang Xinran's conversation with his mother broke up unhappily, but Zhang's mother did not leave, because the task assigned by the old man was to let her listen to the news and bring Zhang Xinran to the private room next to her, of course, it depends on whether Mayor Liu's son comes.
With the addition of Zhang's mother at the dinner, the situation became not so harmonious, and the young people who could have talked and laughed were all eating and drinking.
After about an hour, Zhang's mother's phone rang, and after she answered, she said hello and hung up.
"Xinran, let's go, your dad told us to come over. ”
"Don't go, don't go, go yourself. Zhang Xinran shook his head and waved his hand, unwilling to go with his mother.
"Child, you are making it difficult for your father, think about it, Mayor Liu is here, let you go over and you don't go, what will happen to your father's face? Can he still straighten up in front of his colleagues? Even if you don't want to go on a blind date, at least go through the motions, at least make your father's face look better. ”
As soon as Zhang's mother said this, Zhang Xinran looked at Wang Lung and asked for his opinion with her eyes. Wang Lung had the heart to say that he would not let Zhang Xinran go, but after all, it was Zhang Xinran's parents who made this request, and the relationship with the future father-in-law and mother-in-law was too stiff, and it was definitely not good.
"Why don't I go with you?" Wang Lung said after holding back for a while.
"Forget it, I'll go by myself, you wait for me here. "Since Zhang Xinran has decided to go, it is best not to let Wang Lung participate. First, Wang Lung has little effect, after all, it is still himself who makes the decision on this matter. Second, she is also thinking about Wang Lung, if Wang Lung also goes with him, it will inevitably make Zhang Minsheng ugly, and after she gets along with Wang Lung in the future, it will inevitably affect the relationship between the two parties.
"Well, that's right. Zhang's mother took Zhang Xinran's hand and walked towards the box inside. What she just said about going through the motions was actually just to coax Zhang Xinran to go in with her, of course she didn't want Zhang Xinran to be happy with a poor boy.
After Zhang Xinran entered, everyone lost interest in eating and drinking, and Wang Lung became a victim of gains and losses, and he had to look in the direction of the box every five seconds.
After a difficult hour, Zhang Minsheng and his party came out, and the people who walked in the middle were held by the stars around them, with a flattering smile on their faces, presumably this one in the middle was what Zhang Minsheng said Mayor Liu.
Zhang Xinran was dragged by her mother to walk at the end, and there was a well-dressed young man next to her, who said something to Zhang Xinran with a smile on his face, this is probably the son of Mayor Liu.
Zhang Xinran's eyes didn't meet him at all, he directly crossed him and looked at Wang Lung on the seat, the eyes of the two passed through the entire noisy hall, intertwined, and the mayor of Liu next to him was well recuperated, and he was also handsome, although he also looked at Wang Lung with Zhang Xinran's gaze, but he pretended not to see it.
Wang Lung saw that his opponent's rival was very strong, so he was in a hurry and stood up. Zhang Xinran saw Wang Lung stand up, hurriedly trotted a few steps, made an appointment with the crowd, came to Wang Lung, and held hands with him.
Zhang Xinran's actions made the face of Zhang's mother, who followed behind, change greatly, which introduced the object to Mayor Liu's son, and also held hands with other people in front of Mayor Liu, which was a disappointment to Mayor Liu, which was equivalent to a slap in the face.
"Gladly, let go. Mother Zhang shouted angrily in a low voice.
"Mom, Dad, I'm sorry, I can listen to you in everything, but I can't listen to you in this matter, I have to control my own happiness. Zhang Xinran was resolute.
Zhang Minmin's beard trembled with anger, and he tried his best to confront Mayor Liu, and wanted to introduce his daughter to the Liu family, but he didn't expect that his daughter slapped him in the face in public, and it was for such a penniless stinky boy.
Regarding Wang Lung's situation, Zhang Minsheng also inquired, after all, they are all from the same town. Wang Lung's mother died early, and his father was burned alive during the land acquisition in Wujia Village last year, so Wang Lung is also an orphan, and he is still an orphan without any relationship or background. Of course, if Wang Lung is rich, Zhang Minsheng can still look down on him, but what kind of money can a poor soldier who has been discharged and demobilized?
Letting her daughter be with such a person is simply a combination of a swan and a toad, which can make her colleagues laugh off their big teeth.
"Is it your kid who deceived my daughter?" Zhang Minsheng said viciously to Wang Long.
"Dad, it's not a lie, we're in free love. Zhang Xinran knew that Wang Lung was stupid, and helped him defend himself.
"Shut up, you get back to me, don't be embarrassed here. Zhang Minsheng was even more angry when he saw that his daughter was still helping outsiders speak.
Wang Lung himself was scolded, but he could endure it, but the person who was scolded was his own woman, and he couldn't bear it for a moment, and when he couldn't help but prepare to do it, he was pulled by Wu Ziyu from behind.
Wu Ziyu stood up and looked at Zhang Minsheng, "Zhang Xinran is an adult, I think she can have her own choice." ”
"Which green onion are you!" Zhang Minsheng is usually a stable person, but today he was really angry with his daughter.
Wu Ziyu was scolded by Zhang Minsheng, but he was not annoyed, although Zhang Minsheng is the head of a town, Wu Ziyu cannot be compared with it at all, but in Wu Ziyu's eyes, he is just a person.
In the eyes of Wu Ziyu, who has obtained the inheritance of the secret method and walked towards the path of cultivation, except for Taoist friends, the rest are mortals, and it is completely unnecessary to be angry with mortals, of course, if this mortal must have to provoke himself, Wu Ziyu does not mind giving him a good time and ending his journey to the world in this life.
It was probably Wu Ziyu's unfathomable profundity that caused Mayor Liu to take a second look, when did this small county town of Shidao have such a young man?
Mayor Liu's qi cultivation kung fu is much stronger than Zhang Minsheng's, he looked at Wu Ziyu carefully, and felt more and more that this young man was a little unfathomable.
How to say it, Mayor Liu can achieve his current position, he naturally has a vision, he can see that some young people will pretend to be old in order to get the favor of their elders, but they don't pay attention to the flaws in the subtleties, but the young man in front of him is really light and light, and he doesn't take Zhang Minsheng's words seriously.
Zhang Minsheng is not a nobody in Shidao, although the official position of the party secretary of a town is not large, but Chishan Town is close to Shidao, the geographical position is superior, and it is far more popular than ordinary bureau-level cadres in the county.
Zhang Minsheng's family is not short of money, it is easy to make friends with money, Zhang Minsheng is also a well-known No. 1 person in Shidao, he can't kill people with officials, and he can kill people with money.
But in the face of such a figure, the young man was unmoved, as if he was just a small person.
Mayor Liu took a closer look at Wu Ziyu, but after watching it for a long time, he couldn't recognize who this young man was. In the one-third acre of Shidao, almost all the relatives who may be able to use will be reconnoitred, after all, Shidao is just a small place.
Mayor Liu didn't see Wu Ziyu's details, and looked at the three girls sitting next to him, the three girls sitting around him were very beautiful, they were too beautiful, in the boundary of Shidao, the beauty of these three girls could be used as a beauty business card of Shidao, and this appearance was a couple.
These three beauties are all beautiful and fragrant, and they are attracted by men who have no parts, but these three beauties revolve around a young man, and obviously the identity of this young man is not simple.
Wait, wait, Mayor Liu suddenly seemed to remember something, one of the women, Mayor Liu felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
Mayor Liu racked his brains before he remembered that the beautiful woman sitting on the right hand of this young man had met once in the capital.
That time Mayor Liu went to Beijing to participate in the National Top 100 Counties Commendation Conference, and one day, he was pulled by his top boss and his old leader to a private club, and met with some wealthy families in Beijing, and it was in this meeting that he met Zhang Wenjing.
This wealthy family happens to be the Zhang family in the capital. The Zhang family in the capital is considered to be a family that has passed the gas in the capital, but it does not mean that the Zhang family does not want to revitalize, but now many people have already found the mountain to protect themselves, or this wealthy family, or that family, these families are all huge energy, and it is difficult to attract their own power for a declining family like the Zhang family.
Therefore, the Zhang family can only find another way, the provincial and municipal levels can not recruit the younger brother, can only retreat to the second, in the county level to recruit the younger brother, these national top 100 counties are very important resources.
The younger brother at the county level, the big family can't look down on it at all, but for the Zhang family, which is in urgent need of revitalization, although the investment has grown, there is no shortage of high-performance stocks, which need to be wooed.
The Zhang family's means of winning over the younger brother is to show kindness, because the Zhang family specially asked Zhang Wenjing, the grandson of the Zhang family and a talented woman who is still in school, to play a piano for everyone to show their attention.
It was at that time that Mayor Liu remembered Zhang Wenjing.
But after all, it was seen from a distance before, but now it is a close look, and the more you look at it, the more it looks, Mayor Liu tried to ask Zhang Wenjing, "Dare to ask if this young lady is from the capital?"
Zhang Wenjing looked at Mayor Liu's cautious appearance, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it, but she still nodded, "Yes, I'm from Beijing." ”
Mayor Liu was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Is Miss surnamed Zhang?"
Zhang Wenjing nodded and asked, "Are you?"
Mayor Liu was overjoyed and nodded, "I heard your 'Moonlight March' last time in Zhang Yuan, oh, you can call me Xiao Liu." ”
