Chapter 120 We are very close
Chapter 120: We are very 'close'
The engagement ceremony has begun. The two families did not invite special witnesses. All witnesses were present. The ceremony was very simple. It was just that both men and women respected each other's parents with a cup of tea. Ding Fengjun and Xu Ting sat down. After drinking the tea, they each handed a red envelope, and then the name changed.
Li Wanfen and Xu Fengyuan also prepared a big red envelope. Listening to Ding Ningxue calling her parents shyly, they were a little excited. The son had grown up, and now he finally found a wife for them. This kind of joy was a sigh from the bottom of his heart as parents.
"Ningxue, I will leave this kid Shaodong to take care of you in the future. He is so irritable like a child. You have to be more considerate. If he dares to bully you, his mother will make the decision for you." Holding Ding Ningxue's hand, Li Wanfen had already spoken as a mother. From this moment on, Ding Ningxue is considered a member of the Xu family.
Ding Ningxue responded in a low voice and replied, "Mom, don't worry, I will take good care of Shaodong." Her eyes turned around. When she spoke, she glanced at Xu Shaodong. Looking at the man with a handsome temperament and standing beside her, she felt an indescribable happiness in her heart, but she just pursed her lips and showed a bright smile.
"Okay, I've said everything I should say. Shaodong, I'll hand Xiaoxue over to you. Come on, let's have a drink for our grandfather and grandson. Old Xu, you can have a banquet, don't let everyone go hungry!" Ding Fengjun also began to integrate into this new identity. Now the Ding family and the Xu family are relatives.
But at this time, the gate of the Xu family compound was opened again. With the escort of a large van, a black red flag drove in. There was no need to see who was sitting in the car. Seeing the license plate was already shocking on the spot. The country's No. 1 car would be sensational wherever it went.
No one expected that the Xu family's birthday party and engagement banquet would even be alarmed.
Five or six elite bodyguards appeared first, then surrounded the red flag, the car door opened, and a face that was familiar to everyone appeared. A gentle smile, deep in his eyes, a light filled with light. That expression and momentum was really unparalleled.
Ding Fengjun, Xu Ting, and several old men from the Politburo immediately strode forward. As the master, Xu Ting was the first to shake hands with the chairman and smiled: "Chairman, I didn't expect you to take the time to come. It's really a blessing for my Shaodong."
The chairman smiled and said, "Old Xu, this is your wrong thing. How can I miss your birthday party? It's just that there are too many things, it's a little late. I'll punish myself for three cups later. That's OK. By the way, I heard that today is your grandson's engagement banquet. I've been acquainted with Xu Shaodong for a long time. Come and let me see which kid it is."
Xu Shaodong and Ding Ningxue held hands and walked up together.
Although he was a federal superstar and had met with politicians from all countries more than 200 years ago, Xu Shaodong felt a little nervous when he was facing this old man. When the old man looked at him, he felt a strong pressure coming. This kind of aura of a superior person is definitely not something that ordinary people can bear.
"No, it's really good. Old Xu, you have a good grandson. I think his future and future are limitless. No wonder Xiaoxue fell in love with him. Even my boy didn't like it." The chairman held Xu Shaodong's hand and smiled gently.
A man who is so young can handle it calmly in front of him, and not to mention anything else, just this calm and steady attitude is already amazing. Even his grandson, who is growing up, is very unnatural every time he faces him. Some things cannot be compared with each other.
"Grandpa Chairman, you always make fun of me again. I am friends with Xiaole. Isn't our relationship now also very good?" But I didn't expect that Ding Ningxue had a good relationship with the chairman, which was something Xu Shaodong didn't know.
The chairman raised his head and said, "Little girl, don't I envy the Xu family? You are a flower in the capital. Shaodong is indeed a lucky person and can take on a great responsibility."
"Chairman, you really praise him so much, just afraid that he will become proud." Xu Ting immediately spoke and responded modestly.
"No, no, I know a lot about Shaodong. He sang the song "Starry Night", which is very good. The little guys at home all like his songs. Now young people who are familiar with him are rare. Come on, today I will have a few drinks with Shaodong, which is considered to celebrate his success."
Even the Chairman was here, and the atmosphere became even more lively. Everyone toasted it very hard, but they were having a lot of fun. Although it might not necessarily attract the Chairman's attention, it was also a very respectful thing to let Mr. Xu see it. However, being able to attend today's wedding banquet is a symbol of identity.
Although not everyone knows it, everyone knows it well that none of them is lower than the department level.
Of course, Xu Ting accompanied a few old men and the chairman at a table, Xu Shaodong and Ding Ningxue sat with their family, Li Wanfen and Xu Fengyuan sat on their side, constantly clinking glasses with the people who came to express their congratulations or toasts. Whether he knew him or not, today was finally a happy day and could not be refused.
"Brother Xu, your son is very happy today. You should be happy. I haven't seen you for so long, so we have to have a good drink today." Xu Shaodong recognized the person who was approaching at this moment, but he did not expect that the deputy governor who was far away in Southeast Province also came today.
Yes, he was Lian Jiujin, the deputy governor who was determined to move closer to the Xu family.
In fact, he did not receive an invitation today, but Huang Baizhi, secretary of the Southeast Provincial Party Committee, is a disciple of Mr. Xu. Lian Jiujin recently defected. In order to comfort the newly defected person, this banquet specially brought him. In addition to calming his heart, the provincial standing committee members who were swaying around knew that only by following his footsteps would there be better room for development.
Lian Jiujin had met Xu Fengyuan several times, so he had to have a good relationship with him now. The gap with Chief Xu was too big, but it was the same for a good relationship with Xu Fengyuan. If he could attend this banquet today, he knew that after he went back, his identity would be greatly improved, and he might be able to become a member of the Standing Committee.
The visitor was a guest. Xu Fengyuan immediately responded with a smile, raised his glass and said, "It's Lao Lian, I really want to thank you today. Come here so far to celebrate the old man's birthday. Come on, I'll give you a cup."
"Where, where, Brother Xu, are you kind of polite. Of course, we as juniors must follow Mr. Xu's flag closely. We have to ask you to take care of us in the future?"
"That's certain, come on, I'll do this." Anyway, these things are just good-looking and nice. As for whether they need care, they have to see whether this person is useful to the Xu family. The Xu family has a great influence, but not all cats and dogs need to win over.
After being intimate with Xu Fengyuan, he looked at Xu Shaodong again. Xu Fengyuan quickly introduced: "Shaodong, this is Uncle Lian that I often mention to you. In the future, if he is in the southeast, no one dares to bully you."
This is very nice, but Lian Jiujin knows his weight. The Xu family has a yellow and white branch in Southeast Province. Do you need him to help?
"Uncle Lian, I'm so lucky. Although I have never met you, I have longed for you for a long time. Mr. Ling has taken care of me, and I'm afraid he hasn't told you!"
After saying this, Lian Jiujin became interested and asked, "Is that so? My boy is called Promotion. Could it be that Mr. Xu knows him?"
Not only did I know each other, but I kicked a soft bag and slapped him a few times in the face, which should be unforgettable.
"I know, I know, we are all friends. Even Uncle might as well go back and ask him. I have had 'intimate contact' with him." It was very close to slap in the face!
Lian Jiujin didn't know the details, and said happily: "My kid doesn't have other skills, but he has many friends. If Mr. Xu has any needs, just say it, and he will definitely help you with it properly, and you don't need to be polite."
Xu Shaodong held back his laughter and said, "Then I will really trouble Uncle Lian from now on."
I really convinced this person. I still feel so good now, but I don’t know that this flattering and flattering look is a bit disgusting, but most people in the officialdom are like this.
Lian Jiujin left happily, and Xu Fengyuan had time to ask about the doubts in his heart.
"Shaodong, when did you meet Lian Jiujin's son? I heard that kid is not a good person, he specializes in stealing chickens and dogs." The question was very rude, and Ding Ningxue was still listening together. Li Wanfen hurriedly glared at him and signaled him to pay attention to his words.
Xu Shaodong smiled and said, "I'm saying it's so close. I slapped him seven or eight times. Do you think you are close? Dad, you should say that I know he is not a good bird."
Ding Ningxue smiled suddenly, thinking about the person's excitement just now, but she didn't know that her son was beaten up, and she thought he was really close?
When Li Wanfen saw Ding Ningxue smiling, she thought she was laughing at the two of them. She immediately reminded her not to be so rude, "Hey, you two, speak civilly, don't be so rude in front of Ningxue. They are girls' homes, can't accept it?"
Ding Ningxue immediately explained: "Mom, it's okay. I just laughed at the man just now. It's not because Shaodong spoke rudely. I have always lived in the military camp. I have seen too many rude people. I have been used to it for a long time and I don't mind it."
Xu Fengyuan immediately smiled happily and said, "That's right. Ningxue is now a member of the Xu family. He wants to adapt to the life of the Xu family. As a man, why are he called a man if he is not rude? That's not a sissy anymore. I don't want Shaodong to become that kind of man, otherwise wouldn't he lose the face of me, the old man."
"You are so shameless, you are still ashamed. Okay, don't be so angry after saying a few words. Ningxue, don't be as knowledgeable as their father and father. Let's eat food." Li Wanfen didn't give her husband face. Even in front of her daughter-in-law, she had no scruples, or they had accepted Ding Ningxue and regarded her as her family.
