I Really Don't Want to be Reborn - Chapter 394

[394.Chapter 387 Enter the village quietly, don’t shoot people]
Since its opening, the Oriental Hotel has been in business almost every day, probably because of its location, service, and word-of-mouth. The sun was plentiful, dispelling a thick chill.
Xiao Hongwei was holding a banquet here today. The hotel manager personally asked about the details, trying to make a good impression, so that we can talk to each other when we meet again in the future.
At the main entrance, a dazzling banner has been drawn.
“Happy 20th birthday to Xiao Rongyu, daughter of Xiao Hongwei and Lu Yuqing!”
This is the custom in northern Jiangsu. Turning 20 is a very important day, second only to weddings and funerals.
Around 9:00, a group of people appeared one after another at the entrance of the hotel, some were old ladies wearing gray and white padded jackets, some were women with children in their arms, some uncles were smoking dry cigarettes, and of course some were wearing thin leather jackets in cold weather young people.
One by one, they shook hands and greeted each other from afar, and called each other affectionately.
These are all relatives of Xiao Hongwei’s family. Although Lao Xiao and Lu Yuqing’s family is very good, some relatives are just simple farmers, but they are very enthusiastic. I heard that the juniors or cousins are over 20 years old, and they came to the city early by car. up.
In fact, rural people pay more attention to etiquette and have a deeper sense of family.
After 9:30, another group of relatives came over.
Most of this part came by car, and each of them seemed to be a middle-aged couple with a successful career, and their children were neatly dressed. The cigarettes they took out were all more than 20 yuan, and there were even a lot of Chinese.
In fact, it is very strange to say that everyone is obviously relatives, but the rich relatives will go to Xiao Hongwei’s house to sit first, as if to show their faces; those who are more ordinary, everyone has a tacit understanding to come first to the hotel.
This is also an interesting manifestation of the social rural view.
Around 10 o’clock, Lao Xiao’s family also came over, because relatives kept coming to the door, and it was delayed for a long time.
Lao Xiao is considered a figure in the small city of Hong Kong, so some relatives will not be angry if they wait for an hour, especially the hotel manager is very good at being a man, and keeps asking the waiter to bring tea and water.
Lao Xiao apologized one by one after getting off the car: “Sorry, sorry, we are late.”
“It’s okay, cousin, where’s the eldest niece?”
“It’s not too late, it’s only 10 o’clock.”
“That’s right, we I have just arrived.”
······ The
relatives were very considerate and comforted, Xiao Hongwei took out Zhonghua from his pocket and started to smoke while exchanging greetings, at this time, Xiao Rongyu’s grandma, mother and herself Get out of the car.
Grandma is wearing a bright red cotton-padded jacket, with pearls dotted on the sleeves, which looks very festive;
mother is wearing a brown woolen trench coat, which is even more luxurious;
Xiao Rongyu is wearing a pink down jacket, with light makeup on, and a delicate oval face Crystal clear as jade, her curled eyelashes are flickering, her mouth is pink and shiny, and her iconic ponytail, which sways from side to side as her body sways, shows the vivacity and youth of a 20-year-old.
Relatives gathered around with a smile.
“Second Grandma, your old man is going to celebrate his birthday.”
“Sister-in-law, your windbreaker style is so beautiful.”
“Xiao Yu’er is already 20 years old, and she will always be so beautiful. ”
·······
After coming down, Xiao Hongwei took Xiao Rongyu to greet relatives.
Because some relatives don’t have much contact with her, and because she goes to school, she may not have met a few times, but since she is attending the banquet, she must be called politely.
Xiao Yu’er has a sharp tongue, a sweet voice, and a good family. Many elders still want to give red envelopes. Lu Yuqing hurriedly stopped them. It’s been more than a month since the Spring Festival, so how can I receive red envelopes.
Brothers of the same generation in their 20s, when they saw how beautiful their younger sister was, they responded shyly.
Before the hello was finished, Xiao Rongyu was already followed by a bunch of little kids, all elementary school students and kindergarten teams, they saw that her sister was beautiful, and they all wrapped around her thighs, looking up at Xiao Rongyu with her small face . The hotel manager knew that Xiao Hongwei was coming, so he hurried out of the lobby to greet him. He deliberately took out the Jianye 95 Supreme, and said respectfully
and enthusiastically, “There are quite a lot of people today.
”
He asked shortly: “Everything is arranged.”
“Okay.” The
hotel manager patted his chest to assure: “There will be no problem.”
Xiao Hongwei was relieved, and shook hands with the hotel manager: “Then I’ll leave it to you.”
“That’s right.”
Lao Xiao took out another red envelope from his pocket: “This is for the master of ceremonies, please convey it to me.”
Holding the red envelope, the hotel manager was very puzzled: It wasn’t you who invited me. The master of ceremonies, and the hotel did not invite me, how can I convey it?
But Xiao Hongwei didn’t have time to explain, because around 10:30, he and Lu Yuqing’s colleagues came over.
These are all “big shots”, at least in Hong Kong City.
The titles of various directors and directors were flying all over the sky, Lao Xiao hurriedly left his relatives behind, and took Xiao Rongyu to greet this group of uncles and aunts.
Relatives will not feel left out, but envious, because you can tell from the friends you make with how well a person is doing.
Lao Chen and Liang Meijuan also came over. Their work unit was close, and they made an appointment to walk here.
“Why did you show up?”
Xiao Hongwei hurriedly said, “My voice is hoarse.”
“Uncle Chen, Aunt Liang.”
Xiao Yuer also came over to say hello.
“Girl~”
Liang Meijuan didn’t know what to say, she stretched out her arms to hug Xiao Rongyu, Xiao Yu’er obediently leaned her head on Liang Meijuan’s shoulder.
They all knew that Chen Hansheng would be absent from the banquet.
But Xiao Hongwei didn’t know, he even looked back: “Where is Han Sheng, where did this kid go to play?”
“He, he…”
Liang Meijuan didn’t know how to explain.
Fortunately, Xiao Hongwei just asked a casual question. He absolutely did not believe that Chen Hansheng would be absent today. He turned to Chen Zhaojun and said, “Old Chen, I am going to take care of my relatives. Please help me comfort my colleagues in the unit, Xiao Yuer.” You follow Dad, there are still some elders here who need to know.”
After Xiao Hongwei left with his daughter, Liang Meijuan looked at her husband: “What should I do, the dog is not answering the phone now, why don’t we put down the gift money and go back… ”
What nonsense are you talking about?”
Chen Zhaojun interrupted his wife directly: “The son ran away, can the parents run away?”
Lao Chen took out his social cigarette and began to help Xiao Hongwei greet the guests.
If it is said where Chen Hansheng learned his social and social skills, half of it was brought about by his independent personality, and the other half was influenced by Lao Chen’s side.
I saw Chen Zhaojun “infiltrating” calmly. When he met a guest, he would introduce his identity first, and then talk about some anecdotes in the Hong Kong city; when he met Xiao Hongwei’s relatives in the countryside, he would talk about this year’s harvest; For the richer relatives, Lao Chen talked to them about the changes in the market economic system.
Old Chen has practiced handwriting for many years, and he has a good self-cultivation and bearing. In addition, the unit is good, so everyone will give him some face when he greets him.
Standing in the sun until 11 o’clock, the hotel manager said that it was almost time, and the banquet officially started at 12 o’clock, Xiao Hongwei called everyone to enter the main hall.
“Hurry up, girl, you are the protagonist today.”
Lao Xiao saw Xiao Yu’er standing at the door, keeping his eyes on the south.
“Understood.”
Xiao Rongyu silently responded, there was no red Xiali in sight, only a gray bus slowly driving in.
This bus is very inconspicuous, with a Jianye license plate of “Su A”.
In the carriage, the discussion was all about the life of college students.
“We changed dormitories this semester, and I have been suffering from insomnia in the new dormitory. I didn’t expect to sleep comfortably in Hong Kong City.”
“It’s a sophomore in a blink of an eye. Time flies.
” How much do you score in the CET-4 exam?” A dark-
skinned
boy also asked his companions: “How much do you score in CET-4?”
“More than 100 points.”
A voice replied with a smile : “In short, everyone is in three digits, but the gap is not that big.” ”
Can the fourth level with more than 100 points be the same as the fourth level with more than 500 points?”
Fortunately, I barely passed CET-4.”
“Awesome, I can’t get a few points in English listening with headphones on, so it’s better to rely on my senses.”
The boy who got more than 100 points in CET-4 suddenly stood up. He looked out of the window and said, “We’ve already arrived at the hotel. Be careful, everyone. Enter the village quietly. Don’t shoot anyone.” (
