Chapter 514 I will invite you to my next wedding
The chef at the steel mill is so popular, not to mention the director of the canteen.
"Oh? You know Director Chen?" Secretary Shi looked at his brother-in-law in surprise: "I remember that your factory and the steel mill didn't have much communication, right?"
My brother-in-law works in a garment factory, doing clerical work in an office. He usually never even leaves the workshop. How come he knows Director Chen from the steel rolling mill?
The brother-in-law shook his head and said very frankly: "How can I know Director Chen? He is very famous in the city. Even if our factory wants to go to the steel mill for a meal, we have to find a good relationship in advance."
"I know him, but he doesn't know me."
Secretary Shi has lived in Shitun Commune for many years and is unaware of some of the things going on in the city. Naturally, he does not know how famous the new director Chen of the steel rolling mill is. Almost all the directors and leaders of some large factories have had meals at the steel rolling mill.
Director Chen's craftsmanship was highly praised. It was only because Director Yang of the steel rolling mill had some skills that he could have done something, otherwise there would have been so many people trying to poach him.
Moreover, he had heard from his colleagues in the factory that the Russian bear had a team of technical support engineers who had stayed in the Red Star Steel Mill for a long time and finally did not want to leave. This fact alone was enough to make many factory directors drool with envy.
So famous?
Secretary Shi seemed to have heard different information from his brother-in-law, so he asked a few more questions out of curiosity.
You wouldn't know until you asked. After asking, Secretary Shi was shocked.
Be nice!
If he didn't have a cousin who was the director of a steel rolling mill, he would never have been able to invite Director Chen, such a great figure!
Great! Really great!
Although many of the relatives and friends present did not know Director Chen’s identity, some of them knew him to some extent.
After the banquet, if someone publicizes it, you will feel proud.
Thinking of this, Secretary Shi scratched his chin lightly and planned to give Director Chen an extra red envelope when he left, trying to leave a good impression on him and invite him to be the chef next time.
By the way, there is also my cousin. I have to go have a drink with him later.
Although the marriage did not take place, my cousin helped a lot, by finding a car and hiring a chef.
"Come on, don't lift your chopsticks, everyone, enjoy your meal!" Secretary Shi picked up the wine glass and happily took a big gulp.
"One go, one go!"
As more dishes were served on the table, the yard became more lively.
But the more lively the courtyard was, the more deserted the women outside seemed.
Hu Xiaoli's mother was squatting on the ground, cursing with her head down, as if to say, "Don't bother me."
There was nothing she could do. When her daughter found a good partner, she showed off a lot outside and invited many people to the banquet.
As a result, when the relatives and friends who came to the banquet arrived, they found that the banquet had already started in the courtyard, but the bride and her family were outside the courtyard.
No, what's going on?
The bride doesn't need to participate in the wedding? ? Isn't this too disrespectful to the woman?
After asking in detail, I found out that the marriage had broken down, and the man's side simply invited people to host the banquet and no longer cared about the woman's affairs.
Although this is very frustrating, it's just a wasted trip.
But some people are happy in their hearts.
Haha, I asked you to brag about your daughter marrying into a good family, so why aren’t you bragging about it now?
I bother!
Although I thought so in my heart, I certainly wouldn't dare say it out loud.
"Oh my, what's going on, Xiaoli's mom? We all came here to show you our strength, but you said we can't even get through the gate."
"Everything was fine before. Is it because Xiaoli's brother's job was not settled? Oh, you can't rush this matter. When Xiaoli and Shi Delu get married, Xiaoli will still have the final say in the family."
"What? It's not because of work, but because of the red envelope? I think the Shi family looks down on Xiaoli, otherwise they wouldn't even be willing to give her a red envelope of 60 yuan."
"That's right, you're already bullying Xiaoli before we even get married. What will happen after we get married?"
The relatives who had just arrived complained that the Shi family was not low-key and spoke for Hu Xiaoli, but in their hearts they were almost letting this girl live a good life.
But there were also a few people who spoke their mind and blamed Hu Xiaoli's mother for messing things up.
"Look at what happened. You've ruined a good marriage. Why didn't you ask the man for a red envelope earlier? Even if you can't ask for sixty, thirty or forty should be fine."
"I've said before that the Shi family is not stupid. If you ask for so many things, you'll definitely get annoyed by them. Now that the Shi family says they don't want to get married, the previous betrothal gifts and other things have to be returned. Oh, it will be difficult for Xiaoli to find a partner in the future. This matter will definitely spread in our area."
"Even if he can find a partner, will the next one be as generous as the Shi family? Shi Delu still works in the supply and marketing cooperative, what a good job."
"Oh, to save face for your parents, I brought my children to the feast, but I walked so far and couldn't even get a meal."
Whether it was those that happened later or those that came with the wedding car, they were all complaining about Hu Xiaoli and her mother being ignorant, one after another.
Especially after the banquet started, the aroma wafting from the courtyard made them drool.
Yeah!
I don’t know where the Shi family hired the chef from, but his skills are really good!
The bride, Hu Xiaoli, was already in a bad mood, and after hearing the complaints from her relatives, she felt so upset that she wanted to cry.
She had no opinion of her own since she was a child, and when discussing marriage, she listened to her family, who said that the more the Shi family gave her, the higher her status in the family would be in the future, and the more Shi Delu would respect her.
That's why Hu Xiaoli watched her mother ask Shi Delu for a red envelope as a wedding gift.
I originally thought that this time he would compromise like before, but I didn't expect that Shi Delu didn't want me anymore.
At most, the relatives didn’t get to eat at the table, but as the bride, it was the most embarrassing for her!
If Shi Delu really doesn't want me anymore, will I still be able to find a partner in the future?
Thinking about the aunts and sisters-in-law who often sit together and chat in the village, Hu Xiaoli can even imagine how they will portray her.
Even if you spend money to find a matchmaker in the future, the matchmaker may not help you.
Hu Xiaoli's mother was already very angry and was cursing at the Shi family.
Before the anger had subsided, I heard these relatives and friends blaming me again.
No, which side are you from?
Why did you start speaking for the Shi family?
What a bunch of heartless people they are. Their own daughter is about to get married, but they are complaining that they can't have an opportunity to attend the banquet and that they made a wasted trip.
Which is more important, the banquet or your own daughter?
