Someone else proposed a toast at the table, including Fu Jingyou.
Lu Yuanzheng just nodded with a smile and did not stop him.
Even if he didn't drive, Lu Yuanzheng was not able to drink any kind of wine in his position.
But the friendship is there.
For some things, just say take care of the children. You can do it in private, but you can't just agree to it at the dinner table.
Lu Yuanzheng couldn't say it clearly, so tacitly allowing Fu Jingyou to stop drinking for him could be regarded as sending a message to the outside world.
He already knew this, so there was no need to mention it further.
Lu Yuanzheng spoke in an airtight manner, and the uncle who stopped him from drinking always kept his cup full and stuffy.
Father and son are fighting in pairs, showing a clear attitude.
After a few rounds, the people at the table had a vague understanding, and then stopped talking appropriately, and then praised the Lu family's son-in-law for his good drinking ability.
The other young people at the table seemed a bit neglected.
But it doesn’t matter, they are all young and energetic young men, and they don’t like to pay attention to the twists and turns of official circles.
Ling Yuan, the son of Secretary Ling of the farm branch in the suburbs of northern Beijing, sat among the young men and turned his head frequently.
Xie Fei noticed the direction in which he turned back and gave him a gentle push.
I originally wanted to remind him to stop, but he seized the opportunity and muttered:
"Didn't Lu Xiaobao always follow you in the past? You didn't marry her, so why did you let a villager marry her?"
Ling Yuan secretly looked at the female guest's table.
The elders present, all men, rarely had a family when they were young.
More than ten years ago, the women and children in the family basically lived in the front and back alleys, and everyone was familiar with each other.
Lu Xiaobao has been beautiful since he was a child. After returning from a few years in the countryside, he seems to be even more beautiful.
Her eyelashes were as thick as small brushes, her lips were red, and the skin on her hands and face looked whiter than the steamed buns served in the restaurant.
It is unimaginable that she not only got married, but also gave birth to two children.
Xie Fei frowned slightly and scolded in a low voice:
“Don’t talk like that.”
Ling Yuan curled his lips, “If you really didn’t like her, you should have revealed it in the first place. In a word, you don’t care, I do! ”
They both grew up in Qianqian Hutong. If he married Lu Xiaobao, it would be better than taking advantage of an outsider.
Ling Yuan thought and glanced sideways at the young man next to the main seat.
Looks okay...
I just don’t know if he is as good a person as he appears on the inside?
Xie Fei's slender sword eyebrows suddenly lowered, and his clear cat eyes darkened.
They grew up together, and among the girls, Lu Xiaobao is the best-looking.
The one who comes out on top among the boys is Xie Fei.
Many people are more or less patriarchal, so the neighbors in the alley love to praise Xie Fei.
Excellent grades, good looks, blah blah blah.
In addition, Lu Xiaobao always liked to chase Xie Fei in the past, which made Xie Fei develop the temperament of a noble young master.
Others are happy to support Xie Fei, but not Ling Yuan.
He doesn't follow Jaffe's example.
The angrier Xie Fei becomes, the more Ling Yuan feels his eyes are lame.
Everyone knows the basics. Besides, Lu Xiaobao not only has a fairy face, he has also been outstanding since he was a child, right?
This time the college entrance examination is the only one among their group who went to a prestigious high school.
He couldn't even look down on such a capable person, so what else could he look down on?
Ling Yuan thought and glanced sideways at Xie Fei, "Your college entrance examination results were obtained by yourself, right?"
You don't look very smart, so why are you so suspicious? What’s the authenticity of it?
“Are you finished?”
Xie Fei frowned and slapped his chopsticks on the table.
There is a lot of movement here, and the elders on both sides of the table are paying attention. Unlike Xie Fei's gloomy expression, Lingyuan waved his hands and smiled heartily:
"Xie Fei and I were joking, it's okay!"
Elders They shook their heads, laughed and looked away.
Calm returned to the table, and Ling Yuan stopped talking to Xie Fei.
He can get angry even if he makes a joke, and his temper is more delicate than that of a girl. It's really boring.
Not only is it boring, it’s just as annoying as when I was a kid!
In the second half of the meal, someone at the men’s table started smoking.
Lu Miao excused herself to go to the toilet, said hello to Tang Mei, and took the two children outside to get some fresh air.
She tried to be as gentle as possible, but with two children, the goal was too big.
Lingyuan saw it at a glance.
Patting the other young man next to him, Lingyuan said, "Wait," and then stood up and left the private room.
Lu Miao took her children to get some fresh air at the entrance of the state-owned hotel on the first floor.
The elders gathered together and drank wine, so the meal was basically not going to be short.
It was already dark outside. I looked at my watch and saw that it had been more than two hours since I had eaten this meal.
If it wasn't hard to recommend, she would never come to this kind of dinner.
A bicycle with a flashlight in the basket drove past the entrance of Guoxing Hotel. When Xiao Mingyi saw it, he jumped with excitement:
"Mom, look at the bicycle, it has two, two wheels. "Mom, that's a bicycle!"
"Mom, what's a bicycle?"
Xiao Mingyi hugged her mother's thigh and raised her little face, her little head a little unable to turn.
Just as Lu Miao was about to explain, laughter suddenly came from behind him.
A tall young man with serious features squatted over, poked Mingyi’s face and said:
“The two-wheeled car just now is a bicycle.”
After saying that, he raised his head and looked at Lu Miao with a wide grin:
"It's been a long time since I saw Lu Xiaobao. You've become more and more beautiful as a girl."
This seems a bit frivolous in this day and age.
Lu Miao was completely unfamiliar with him. He couldn't help but hold Ming Xia tightly in his arms, and pulled Ming Yi back to a brightly lit area inside the state-owned hotel.
“Long time no see.”
Although Lu Miao said it’s been a long time, Lingyuan could see the strangeness in her eyes, and couldn’t help but feel hurt and said:
"No, I'm Lingyuan, the one who picked persimmons for you and broke your leg when you were a kid. You won't forget it, right??!"
Lu Miao tried hard to search through his memory, and found some scattered pieces. Snippet, he couldn’t help but soften a little, and said with a smile :
"You have changed so much that I didn't recognize you."
The thick eyebrows and big eyes in front of me are very Zhou Zheng, and the sunny and cheerful atmosphere all over his body, who can remember him like this? The stupid bald boy took the hook?
Still the kind with a long flowing nose.
Lu Miao was amused by the scene from her childhood.
Ling Yuan didn't care too much. Seeing that she remembered, he took the initiative to pick up Ming Yi and said:
"Sit down and talk?"
His expression was calm, It was obvious that he had something serious to say and had no other purpose.
Lu Miao nodded slightly, "Yeah."
I didn’t go anywhere else, just on the first floor of the hotel.
Lu Miao sat at the table with her child in her arms, and Lingyuan asked for a pot of hot tea.
After chatting casually about their respective majors, Lingyuan went straight to the topic and said:
"I speak more straightforwardly. Anyway, if you don't want to answer, it's okay."
< br>Lu Miao raised her slender brows.
Before she could express her position, Lingyuan had already asked:
"You are in the south. Did you voluntarily marry the comrade named Fu above?"
Lu Yuanzheng only introduced his son-in-law's surname. What? He didn't mention his name, so Ling Yuan naturally didn't know. (End of this chapter)
