"Just ask, get up quickly. Dress up nicely."
"Oh."
An Xinhe didn't dare to neglect, she wanted to accompany her to the banquet, and the other party's status must be good, so she hurriedly got up and dressed.
It didn't take long for An Xinhe to become suspicious, because she saw that the master was choosing clothes for her by himself, even guarding the side while putting on makeup, and would give some advice from time to time.
"What is the identity of the other party? The master is so solemn."
With doubts, An Xinhe finally packed it up. Under the leather jacket, she could see the aura of a lady at a glance. The delicate and simple makeup was paired with a cloud bun, dignified and elegant, and embellished with emerald gold butterfly hairpins and pearl necklaces , so beautiful that people dare not look directly at it.
Standing in front of Li Quan, turning around in a circle, An Xinhe smiled sweetly: "Master, is this concubine dressed properly?"
"Sure! It's really good!" Li Quan hugged Xin He in his arms with satisfaction, "Take Xi He and prepare to go?"
"Xi He is going too?" An Xinhe asked in surprise.
This is too strange, even the youngest daughter has to be brought along, who in Bizhou City is qualified to have such a big face?
"Master, who is the other party? What made the master care so much?" After holding back for a long time, he couldn't help but ask in the end.
Li Quan smiled: "You have seen, when you were in Bixi Village, didn't the master have a dog leg? It was him."
"You son of a bitch! Pfft..."
An Xinhe laughed so hard that the branches trembled, she thought for a long time and said: "It seems to be called Liu Ga, right?"
"That's right, it's him."
"My lord, you are so strange. So many great lords invite you, but you don't go. A villager invites you so carefully, and makes my concubine dress so well. What is it for?"
"This question is on point! That bastard hasn't contacted me for a long time, and now he contacts me suddenly, and it's at the New Year's Eve banquet. He must want to take advantage of the master's face. The master is also his boss, of course at this time Give him a window of support."
Chapter 443: Small Peasant Thought
After all, the boss understands the younger brother, and Li Quan's analysis of him is surprisingly correct.Long before Li Quan and An Xinhe went out, Liu Ga's house had already welcomed guests.
In ancient times, there was no such thing as family planning, let alone any insurance measures, so if a family wants to treat guests and invite all relatives, it will involve many people.It is not a problem to sit at a dozen or so tables casually, and it is not enough for some big players to set up twenty or thirty tables.Poor families are very smart in their calculations. Those with thick skins will not receive bride price, and those with thin skins will think about how much they can get back their money.
In short, in this day and age, entertaining guests and setting up big banquets are all losing money.So no one treats guests lightly. Once an ordinary person is willing to spend the cost to treat guests, it proves that the other party must have something good to do, either get rich or get married, and there must be something to show off to everyone.
Everyone understands the truth, and no one likes to watch other people flaunt their might.It is conceivable that there will be a free meal, and no one will refuse such an opportunity.
Therefore, it is popular for petty bourgeois families to spend money to save face.
Liu Ga is now the security chief of Bixi Village, and Hu Xiaomiao is taking care of him, and his life is very nourishing.After marrying Chen Pei, it was like showing off a long time ago. I don't want to encounter natural disasters, and every household needs a period of time to recover.Now, all the families have recovered, and the time is ripe, so I want to take advantage of the spring breeze of the Chinese New Year to realize my long-standing dream.
Because when he was poor, he experienced this situation many times. Although he went to other places to eat free food, he always ate uncomfortably. The better the food, the better his life was, and he could still sneer behind his back , but when I got home, I felt uncomfortable for a while when I saw the desolation of my family.After holding my breath for so long, I finally survived until a good day. Whatever I say, I have to get the place back and make others feel uncomfortable when they go home.Although such an idea is a bit naive, it is in line with the psychology of most people.
But Liu Ga is smarter than others, knowing that spending money should not be too much, but the more face the better.So I thought of inviting the boss over to the town.
Although Li Quan never revealed his real identity, Liu Ga had guessed it long ago, but he just kept silent.The reason for not contacting Li Quan is that there is such a relationship in the middle. I feel that this layer of identity needs to be revealed by the boss himself. If I talk too much by myself, it will be somewhat unsightly. I also worry about what the boss will think about it.
But now that things have come to an end, Liu Ga thinks it's worth inviting Li Quan over, thinking that with the boss' temperament, he won't think too much about it, right?
Liu Ga's idea was very simple, if the boss could come over, it would be enough to serve some simple food.Mr. Li is a golden Buddha statue. Wouldn't it be more honorable to invite Mr. Li out than to put on big fish and meat?
Liu Ga's wishful thinking was very loud, he wanted face but didn't want to spend money.But who knew that he was disturbed by his wife at the critical moment!He didn't know that Li Quan would come, so he could only upgrade the food prepared by two grades overnight. He made up all the chicken, duck and fish, and kept the drinks and snacks, hoping to save face.
However, when he invited him, he had already boasted that Mr. Li was coming, and now no matter how many good things he put on, he would not give him face.
The first thing everyone says when they enter the door is "Liu Ga, is Master Li here?"
After welcoming guests for a day, Liu Ga's face was filled with embarrassment.At the beginning, I even responded with a bluff: "I haven't come yet."
Later, he directly responded to the other party, "Master Li has something to do, so he may not be able to come."
The guests didn't point out, and each snickered, and when they got to the table, they sat together and laughed a lot.
"Hey, you still said to come and see Mr. Li! It seems that we came early!"
"Master Li was also invited by Liu Ga? Let's just say he's bragging!"
"Hehe, maybe! Look at this table full of big fish and big meat. The life of orphans and widows in the Liu family is really living well!"
"Is it okay? It's probably to attract Mr. Li to come over with a swollen face to pretend to be fat."
"That's right, but he doesn't even think about it. Who is Mr. Li? I don't think any of his family's servants will take a second look at the dishes on this table, right?"
"Haha q day is cheap for us!"
……
……
All kinds of gossip emerged endlessly, and some of them would reach Liu Ga's ears more or less.
Thinking about it, I feel angry, and with nowhere to vent, I glared fiercely at Chen Pei beside me.
Liu Ga wanted others to envy and hate him. He didn't want to spend a lot of money, and he was bored and uncomfortable all the time.
And not only Liu Ga felt uncomfortable, but also the father-in-law's family who came to help.
man!Strange to say.
Master Chen used to want Peipei to marry a good family and live a lifetime without worrying about food and clothing.
Now Chen Pei's life is indeed better, he has no worries about food and clothing, although men are sometimes fierce, but most of the time they are still very good.This was supposed to be something that made people happy, but old man Chen suddenly couldn't be happy now.
Look at the more than a dozen tables of big fish and meat in Liu's house, how much does it cost?Just to save face?
"Hey! I'm talking about my in-laws. Look at so many good things and use them to treat guests. What a waste? It's a good thing that Liu Ga has money, but it can't be so bad, right?" Old man Chen pretended to be sad and looked at Liu Ga's mother. Said.
Liu Ga's mother kept her hands on her hands, sitting on the final preparations, and replied lightly: "It's okay. Liu Ga was underestimated before, and he was holding back his anger. Pay a little money to let him vent his frustration. That's good too."
The words of Liu Ga's mother made old man Chen choke.
"Spend a little money? Is it just a little for such a big emotional battle? How much money does Liu Ga have?"
The poor family is Abby, but there is nothing wrong with saying that people are so angry.
Everyone is from Bixi Village, so they all know the basics.Old man Chen knew very well what happened to Mrs. Liu Ga.He never thought of marrying his daughter into their family.
It's good now, not to mention that I have raised a daughter with the Liu family for nothing, and they eat big fish and meat every day, and I follow my son, and I don't even have a fennel bean every meal.If I want to drink some wine, I have to secretly count on my daughter to give me some.
It's okay if I don't give it, my daughter can have spare money to support her natal family, this, this, this...
"Isn't he just a security chief? My son works as an errand for the Bizhou Prison Division! Why is there such a big gap?"
