Chapter 479 The Lou family is a guest!
Lin Xuemei’s husband is a deputy director of the Ministry of Commerce. The couple has a total of two sons and one daughter, and they live in a living area under the Ministry of Commerce.
After receiving the New Year's goods, Lin Xuemei rode back home in a happy mood. When she walked into the house with a big bag, Lin Xuemei's daughter immediately rushed forward and asked Lin Xuemei: "Mom! Why are you doing this today? Coming back so late?”
Faced with her daughter's inquiry, Lin Xuemei put the bag in her hand on the table and said to her daughter with a smile: "Jiajia! Look, this is the new year's gift from mom. There are five kilograms of pork in it. Mom will give it to you later." Cut some off and cook a bowl of chili-fried meat as a toothpaste for you and your two brothers.”
When Jiajia heard Lin Xuemei's words, she immediately reached out and opened the cloth bag placed on the table. When she saw the pork belly placed in the cloth bag, she urged Lin Xuemei happily: "Mom! I have heated up the Erhe Noodles steamed buns." Okay, my dad should be home by now, so you can go cook.”
Lin Xuemei heard her daughter's urging and complained to Jiajia angrily: "Jiajia! I just came home, you have to give me a breather!"
"Xuemei! Tomorrow is the New Year's Eve, why are you cooking meat tonight?" Lin Xuemei's husband opened the door and walked into the house. A strong smell of meat immediately filled the tip of his nose, making him endure it. He kept asking in the direction of the kitchen.
Lin Xuemei's eldest son, Zheng Chengcai, heard his father's inquiry and happily introduced to his father: "Dad! Today my mother's work unit distributed new year's goods, which is more than what you distributed last year. There are five kilograms of pork in total, three A pound of eggs, five pounds of white flour, two pounds of peanuts, and two pounds of melon seeds. Mom saw that we hadn’t eaten meat for a long time, so she cooked some to satisfy our cravings.”
Lin Xuemei's husband Zheng Zhonghua had a surprised expression on his face when he heard the situation introduced by his eldest son, because he knew that their Ministry of Commerce's New Year's goods this year only had two kilograms of pork and five kilograms of white flour, while the New Year's goods issued by Lin Xuemei's unit were obviously It is much more than what their unit gives out.
Thinking of the world where ministries and commissions distribute New Year's goods, Zheng Zhonghua asked Lin Xuemei curiously: "Xuemei! Didn't your unit's New Year's goods be distributed at the same time as ours? How come it was suddenly distributed in advance? And so many were distributed? ”
Lin Xuemei placed the freshly fried chili fried pork on the dining table and introduced to Zheng Zhonghua with a smile: "Old Zheng! This is not a new year's gift for our unit, but one distributed by our department."
When Zheng Zhonghua heard the situation introduced by Lin Xuemei, he asked Lin Xuemei in shock: "Xuemei! How come you have money to buy new year's goods?"
When Lin Xuemei heard Zheng Zhonghua ask about the source of the new year's goods, she happily replied: "Our department has a public fund specially used to receive guests. Since our director has never received guests, this money will be given to the province." When we came down, the director saw that we were working hard, so he arranged these New Year’s goods for everyone.”
At around six o'clock in the evening, Wu Aiguo's car stopped at the door of Lou's mansion. Lou Zhenhua, who was waiting in the house, heard the noise coming from outside the door. He immediately rushed out of the house and greeted Wu Pingshan and his son enthusiastically. He greeted: "Old Wu! Director Wu! Welcome to my home."
Wu Aiguo heard Lou Zhenhua's words and handed the invitation letter to Lou Zhenhua. He smiled and said to Lou Zhenhua: "Director Lou! Didn't you ask me on the phone this morning what the surprise was? The answer lies in the thing in my hand. In the invitation letter.”
When Lou Zhenhua saw the invitation letter Wu Aiguo handed him, he was still secretly wondering why Wu Aiguo gave him an invitation letter when he had nothing to do. Until he heard Wu Aiguo's words, he quickly took the invitation letter from Wu Aiguo and opened it. Looked at it carefully.
"Director Wu! Is this true? The Government Affairs Council really invited me to attend the New Year's Eve welcome dinner?" After reading the contents of the invitation, Lou Zhenhua became extremely jealous and asked in disbelief. Wu Aiguo confirmed the news.
Wu Aiguo heard Lou Zhenhua's inquiry and saw the other party's excited expression. He smiled and nodded, and replied: "Dr. Lou! Because of your contribution to our country's foreign exchange earning work during the six months in Xiangjiang, plus Mr. Ji specially entrusted me with the supplies you gave to the country free of charge, and gave you this invitation letter.”
Ever since he realized something was wrong, Lou Zhenhua immediately dismissed his family's servants, changed his past high-profile style, and lived a low-key life while finding a way out for the Lou family's future. Until one day Lou Zhenhua accidentally heard about Wu Aiguo from his daughter Lou Xiao'e, and he became interested in making friends with Wu Aiguo. Finally, he successfully met Wu Aiguo at a dinner party hosted by Li Huaide.
At first, Lou Zhenhua met Wu Aiguo with the mentality of getting to know one more friend and finding another way out. Under his intentional or unintentional contact, he eventually became good friends with Wu Aiguo's father, Wu Pingshan, who talked about everything.
Through Wu Pingshan's relationship, Lou Zhenhua became the private manager of Red Star Trading Company under Wu Aiguo's operation. He worked in Xiangjiang for half a year and created a large amount of foreign exchange for the country, from which he also received tens of millions of dollars in dividends.
As a businessman, Lou Zhenhua did not feel complacent because of his achievements in Xiangjiang, because he knew that if the Lou family wanted to live safely in Kyoto, they must be recognized by the upper class, and Wu Aiguo handed him this The invitation letter is proof that he has been recognized by the superiors.
Lou Zhenhua held the invitation letter excitedly and thanked Wu Aiguo with a grateful look on his face: "Director Wu! Thank you!"
At Lou Zhenhua's invitation, the Wu family and his son followed Lou Zhenhua into Lou's mansion.
"Brother Patriot! Are you here?" Lou Xiao'e saw Wu Aiguo walking into the hall from outside, and immediately stepped forward to greet Wu Aiguo happily.
Seeing Lou Xiao'e running towards him, Wu Aiguo smiled and greeted him: "Xiao'e! Long time no see!"
Lou Xiao'e heard Wu Aiguo's words and saw the invitation letter in Lou Zhenhua's hand. She asked Lou Zhenhua curiously: "Dad! What is that in your hand?"
Lou Zhenhua, who was in a happy mood, heard Lou Xiao'e's inquiry and said happily to Lou Xiao'e: "Xiao'e! This is an invitation to the welcome dinner held by the Government Affairs Council. This year, thanks to your patriotic brother, the Government Affairs Council also invited me to attend."
When Lou Xiaoe heard the situation introduced by Lou Zhenhua, her baby-fat face showed a shocked expression, and she quickly confirmed to Lou Zhenhua: "Dad! Is what you said true?"
Lou Zhenhua heard Lou Xiao'e's inquiry and replied happily: "Of course this is absolutely true!"
When Lou Xiao'e heard Lou Zhenhua's answer, she immediately took the invitation letter from Lou Zhenhua's hand and opened it to read.
When Lou Xiao'e saw the content on the invitation letter, she immediately ran towards the kitchen with the invitation letter and shouted happily: "Mom! Mom!"
Lou Zhenhua watched his daughter running towards the kitchen with the invitation letter, and greeted Wu Pingshan and Wu Aiguo with a smile: "Pingshan! Director Wu! Dinner is almost ready, let's take a seat quickly!"
