Chapter 236 Breaking the pot

Chapter 236 Breaking the pot

Bei'an.

After Feng Yu and Feng Xue returned home, they never went out.

The relatives came over to take a look, and Jiang Hua and Chen Huiru also came.

My uncle and his family had returned from Miramar a long time ago.

Asked about Jiang Ning's schedule.

Uncle Zhang Yuedong asked Feng Yu: "When will Jiang Ning come back?"

Feng Yu said: "I'm not sure either. He's going to Australia. If everything is fine at home, he probably won't come back for the time being."

Zhang Yuedong didn't ask any more questions and just chatted for a while.

My uncle Chen Xuefeng said we should book a table for dinner in the evening and have a gathering.

No one objected, so Feng Yu couldn't object either.

So Chen Xuefeng called and booked a table at the New Town Hotel.

We sat and chatted for a while, then saw the relatives off.

Jiang Hua and Chen Huiru didn't leave, Jiang Ziwen was still playing with his sister!

He had just learned to walk and couldn't walk as steadily as his sister. The brother and sister were having a good time, but Jiang Ziwen was too naughty. He stopped playing after a while and wanted to snatch the cardboard from his sister's hand. Jiang Tiantian pushed him.

Jiang Ziwen fell backwards.

First the butt hit the ground, then the head.

There was a soft thud.

"Wow……"

Jiang Ziwen just howled at the top of his lungs.

Chen Huiru hurried over and pulled it up.

Feng Yu was also busy educating her daughter: "Play well with your brother, and don't push him down again..."

The little guy didn't understand, so he called out, "Mom."

Chen Huiru also taught her son: "Play with your sister, play your own games, why do you want to steal your sister's things!"

After coaxing for a while, Jiang Ziwen finally stopped crying.

The two little guys played together again.

Feng Yucai asked Jiang Hua: "Brother, does uncle want to talk to Jiang Ning about something?"

Jiang Hua said: "It's probably about Zhang Yulong."

Feng Yu asked: "What happened to Zhang Yulong?"

Chen Huiru continued, "He never leaves the house and lies at home playing games every day. His uncle and aunt are worried sick. They probably want Jiang Ning to find him a job."

Feng Yu said, "Why bother looking for Jiang Ning? Tell Uncle Yang that you can come to the farm to work, right?"

Jiang Hua said: "He won't do it."

Feng Yu couldn't understand: "Then what does he want to do?"

Jiang Hua said: "I don't want to do anything. I feel like that kid is going to be useless. After coming back from the Demon Country, it seems like he has completely lost confidence in life. He lies at home playing games all day, doesn't interact with people, and doesn't want to go to work. It feels like he's escaping from reality."

"This is really..."

Feng Yu didn't know what words to use to describe it.

Chen Huiru also said something: "Brother Gang from my uncle's family has returned home."

Feng Yu said "oh". She had been married for more than two years and had only heard of this cousin from Jiang Ning's aunt's family but never seen him in person. She was somewhat curious and asked, "When did he come back? Is he going to Xijiang again?"

Chen Huiru said: "He came back last month. I heard he won't go there anymore. He's introducing people to other people everywhere!"

Feng Yu asked: "How old are you?"

Chen Huiru said: "It seems to be thirty-four."

Jiang Hua said: "Thirty-three, three years older than me."

Feng Yu said: "It's not that big, so it should be easy to find a house. There are many women in their twenties who are still unmarried."

Chen Huiru said, "It's not that easy. Those who have few problems are not picky. They get married after working for one or two years after graduating from college. Those who wait until they are 26 or 27 at most, or 28 or 29 and still haven't married are basically all picky and unwilling to compromise, or have problems. Such people will look for someone with a regular job, and they won't look down on anyone without a stable job."

Feng Yujue's words were too absolute.

But I didn’t argue with Chen Huiru.

After sitting for a while, Jiang Hua and Chen Huiru also left with their son.

It's a rare occasion for the little guy to have a playmate, so now he's alone again.

I was a little unhappy: "Mom, brother."

Feng Yu touched his daughter's head and said, "Be good, sweetie. You will see your brother soon."

Feng Xue used sign language to indicate that she didn't really want to go to dinner.

Feng Yu said, "Sister, you are now a member of this family. You and Jiang Ning will have children in the future. You can't stay away from relatives forever. You have to learn to adapt slowly. I'm not afraid of what people say, so what are you afraid of?"

Feng Xue nodded reluctantly and gestured twice.

Feng Yu said, "You can do whatever you want when you go there. Jiang Ning definitely doesn't want you to be like this."

Feng Xue lowered his head and didn't gesture.

She always felt that her going there would make Feng Yu embarrassed.

But Feng Yu doesn't think so. She doesn't care what others say.

Just live your own life well and don't care about other people's gossip.

"Youyou, mom, youyou."

The little guy has developed a habit of not staying indoors.

I just want to run outside.

The two of them had no choice but to take the little guy out for a walk.

In midsummer May, the garden area is already lush and green.

The little guy walked in front and the other two followed behind.

I played for half an hour before going back to the house to sleep.

After waking up, I took the little one to the orchard to play for a while.

After five o'clock, I went back to the house, changed clothes, and then went to the hotel for dinner.

Feng Yu drove the car and Feng Xue sat in the back seat with the little one.

When he arrived at the hotel, Liu Jinliang knew that the proprietress was coming and was waiting downstairs.

The hotel business is so good that there is a long queue for parking at meal times.

I was afraid that the car wouldn’t be able to park when the boss’s wife came, so I waited downstairs early.

When he saw Feng Yu's car coming, he led a young man to meet them.

Feng Yu was also worried about parking. The roadside was full of cars and there was definitely no parking space.

When he saw Liu Jinliang coming, he rolled down the car window.

After a few words, Liu Jinliang said, "Teacher Feng, there is no place to park in front. You get out of the car and go upstairs. I will have someone drive the car to the hotel parking space in the back."

This feeling is good.

Feng Yu said thank you and got out of the car with Feng Xue.

Following Liu Jinliang upstairs, the young man drove the car to the back.

When we got to the box, the others hadn't arrived yet.

Feng Yu put down her bag and said, "Hotel business is very good!"

Liu Jinliang smiled and said, "It's all thanks to Mr. Jiang."

Feng Yu also laughed: "What good fortune does he have? He doesn't care about the hotel. You guys did a good job."

Liu Jinliang was not trying to flatter, but was speaking from his heart. In fact, sometimes one is not afraid of the boss not taking care of things, but is afraid of the boss taking care of everything and not delegating power, which results in a mess. It would be strange if the people below have no initiative and can get things done.

The hotel business is so good, partly due to everyone’s hard work.

The decisive factor was that Boss Jiang completely delegated power and was even willing to share the money.

But I can't tell this to the boss lady.

After chatting for a few minutes, I prepared to go to the kitchen to inquire about the preparation of the dishes.

The boss's wife has been away for nearly half a year and I didn't even spend the Spring Festival at home.

It's a rare opportunity to have a meal in a hotel, so we have to have some snacks.

Feng Yu added: "Don't let anyone pay for it after this, put it on Jiang Ning's account."

Liu Jinliang said: "Captain Chen has instructed that no one else should pay the bill. Teacher Feng, you see..."

Feng Yu said, "Don't let my uncle pay the bill, you can put it on Jiang Ning's account!"

Liu Jinliang could only nod and didn't know what to say.

After a while, Jiang Hua and Chen Huiru arrived. After chatting for a while, relatives also came one after another.

Feng Yu and Feng Xue finally met their cousin from their uncle's family whom they had never met before.

He is in his thirties, about 1.80 meters tall and thin, with long hair.

Like an artist.

Only the two of them had never met each other, so Aunt Jiang Ning introduced them to each other.

There were thirteen people in the family, big and small, sitting comfortably at the table for fifteen.

The two little ones sat in the dining cart. Jiang Tiantian took a piece of shrimp chips and ate quietly.

No noise or fuss.

Jiang Ziwen was different. He leaned over the table and tried to grab the cup.

Jiang Hua and Chen Huiru kept trying to stop him, making it difficult for him to sit still.

Feng Yu sat next to Wang Xia and asked, "Aunt, where is Zhang Yulong?"

Wang Xia said: "Then grandpa can't be invited, he won't come."

Feng Yu smiled and asked, "How can we eat alone if he doesn't come?"

Wang Xia said: "I order takeout every meal and never leave the house."

Feng Yu really wanted to ask, where does one get the money to order takeout every day if he doesn’t work?

He swallowed the words back and decided not to ask.

After chatting for a while, the food started to be served.

There were more than a dozen dishes in total, and they were served very quickly.

Liu Jinliang came in and greeted everyone before everyone started eating.

No wine was served, so we just ate.

While eating and chatting, he would occasionally ask Feng Yu about his experiences in Europe, America and Australia.

After chatting for a while, the topic turned to children.

Whenever talking about children, starting a family and building a career is an unavoidable topic.

Speaking of finding a partner for Chen Gang.

Aunt Zhang Yuzhen asked Feng Yu: "Do you know anyone who is 28 or 29 years old and not married yet? Can you introduce her to Chen Gang?"

Feng Yu thought for a moment and said, "Let me ask around. There are a few unmarried female teachers in the school. I don't know if this will work."

Zhang Yuzhen said, "I don't think so. Chen Gang doesn't even have a job. How can someone with a job be interested in Chen Gang? It would be best if he doesn't have a job. There's still a small chance. For someone with a job, I think it's useless to ask."

"Ah this..."

Feng Yu said: "Except for teachers at school, I don't really know anyone older who is not married."

Zhang Yuzhen was worried: "I'm already over 30 years old. What can I do?"

Feng Yu comforted him casually: "Thirty-three is not too old, we can still find it."

Zhang Yuzhen still held on to some fantasy: "Why don't you ask your school teacher to see if it's possible?"

Feng Yu nodded: "Then I'll ask later."

In fact, I am not optimistic at all.

She knows better than anyone what kind of people the school teachers are.

People like her got married early.

Finding a diamond man can only be said to be an accident.

Those who have not married until they are 28 or 29 are all neither good nor bad. They are very picky, with high aspirations but a fragile life. They look down on those with poor conditions, and those with good conditions also look down on them.

The older you get, the harder it is to find one.

Women are picky about men.

Men are also picky about women. They also dislike women who have too many things to do, too many problems, and whose values ​​are not very correct. Many things cannot be forced. The more you want, the less you will get. Taking a step back will open up a wider world.

Halfway through the meal, Chen Xuefeng went out.

Prepare to settle the bill.

Zhang Yuedong also followed out.

When I asked at the checkout counter, the cashier said it was on the boss's account.

Chen Xuefeng was stunned: "Who told you to put it on your boss's account?"

The cashier said, "Mr. Liu said that Teacher Feng told him to do so."

Chen Xuefeng was quite embarrassed: "Didn't I tell you not to let others pay the bill?"

The cashier was also in a dilemma: "Mr. Liu said that Mr. Feng asked us to put the money on hold, so we can't do anything about it!"

Chen Xuefeng looked at Zhang Yuedong: "What should we do?"

Zhang Yuedong said, "Feng Yu has already said so. What else can we do? Just consider it as Jiang Ning's treat."

Chen Xuefeng felt uncomfortable all over: "What happened? If I had known, I would have settled the bill when I came in."

Zhang Yuedong said, "You are treating us here, and Jiang Ning is not here, so how can Feng Yu let you pay the bill?"

There was nothing I could do but go back to the box.

We ate for half an hour and chatted for another half an hour.

When it was almost dark, after having eaten and tea, they went downstairs and went home.

Chen Xuefeng, his wife and son got in the car.

Zhang Yuzhen asked: "How much did you spend?"

Chen Xuefeng said: "I don't know."

Zhang Yuzhen was surprised: "Don't know?"

Chen Xuefeng said: "Feng Yurang asked Jiang Ning to pay the bill, but I didn't pay it."

"Ah this..."

Zhang Yuzhen asked, "We agreed that you would treat us, why did you put Jiang Ning on the bill?"

Chen Xuefeng also felt that this matter was not handled properly: "I was careless. If I had known, I would have settled the bill when I went in."

Zhang Yuzhen nags at him: "What are you thinking? You agreed to treat us, but you come here to eat for free. How can you be so embarrassed? I told you to go somewhere else and not come to New Town Hotel, but you refused to listen."

Chen Xuefeng said nothing and started the car.

Chen Gang listened for a long time and asked, "Why can't you come to New Town Hotel?"

Zhang Yuzhen said, "New Town Hotel belongs to Jiang Ning. How can Feng Yu let your father pay for the meal here?"

Chen Gang was surprised: "Isn't New Town Hotel owned by the Wang family? How come it became Jiang Ning's?"

Chen Xuefeng said: "The Wang family fell a long time ago, the hotel was confiscated, and the county gave it to Jiang Ning to pay off the debt."

Chen Gang was even more confused: "To pay off a debt?"

Chen Xuefeng said: "The county owed the farm a lot of money, and couldn't pay it back, so they gave the hotel to Jiang Ning to pay off the debt. A while ago, they also mortgaged the office building to the farm, and the county rented it back, paying the farm three million yuan in rent a year."

Chen Gang couldn't understand: "Why would you mortgage the office building to the farm?"

Chen Xuefeng said: "The county wants to get rid of its debt burden. If it has no money, it can only use the office building to repay the debt."

Zhang Yuzhen said: "Go to the farm and work hard, don't run around anymore."

Chen Gang said: "Let's take a look first."

Chen Xuefeng got angry when he heard this: "What are you looking at when you're in your thirties? You make 6,000 yuan a month driving a car on a farm, and you only get 5,000 yuan. At the end of the year, you get a year-end bonus of 20 months' salary, which is more than 100,000 yuan a year. Where can you earn such a high salary nowadays?"

Chen Gang said: "I don't want to be a driver anyway."

Chen Xuefeng said: "Then go down and catch rabbits."

Chen Gang said: "Don't want to do it?"

Chen Xuefeng asked: "Then what do you want to do?"

Chen Gang said: "I don't want to do anything. I think Zhang Yulong is living a good life now."

Chen Xuefeng was furious. He cursed while driving, "You bastard, how could I give birth to a thing like you? Jiang Ning is six years younger than you. Look at him. He didn't even go to college. He made billions of dollars in his twenties and got married early. He didn't let your second aunt worry about anything. Look at you, you coward. What sin did your mother and I commit in our previous lives?"

Zhang Yuzhen also scolded her son: "You are in your thirties, why are you not motivated at all?"

Chen Gang threw away his anger and said, "If you think I am not capable enough, then strangle me to death and raise another one!"

Chen Xuefeng was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, and he really wanted to stop the car and kick him out.

Zhang Yuzhen was also very angry and kept nagging.

Chen Gang pretended not to hear and turned his head to look out the window, not knowing what he was thinking.

When I got home, I went upstairs without waiting for my parents.

He went into the bedroom, closed the door, and never came out.
