Chapter 289 A Wife Is Your Husband
From beginning to end, his wife never brought this topic to him, which made Chu Jianghe extremely relieved.
It seemed that his wife had unconditional trust in him. How could he, Chu Jianghe, not be moved.
In the evening, Zhao Shizong arranged dinner at the Four Seasons Hotel, with Zhang Li and the others accompanying them, and they sat down around the large round table.
The dishes were very sumptuous, and the table was full. The most eye-catching thing on the table were the large crabs on the big plate in the middle. One of them was probably half a catty in weight.
As soon as he sat down, Zhao Shizong chuckled and said: "I know that my brothers and sisters are from the north and may not be used to the food here. I specially asked the chef to find Huaiyang cuisine. I will make sure to eat more later."
This was Liu Yunfang's first time to eat in such a magnificent restaurant. The best place she had been to before was Lao Mo in the capital.
But with my man by my side and everyone here being acquaintances, eating in a place like this is not so restrictive.
Liu Yunfang smiled and said politely: "Let Brother Zhao worry about it."
Chu Jianghe was also very satisfied with Zhao Shizong's intentions. He didn't know whether the Four Seasons Hotel already had a Huaiyang cuisine chef or if he had specially found one from outside.
My daughter-in-law is just pregnant, and Huaiyang cuisine, which is suitable for both north and south, is really suitable.
"Hahaha, the main thing today is to help you two. Try it and see if it suits your taste." After Zhao Shizong finished speaking, he said to Chu Jianghe: "I know you don't like to drink foreign wine, brother Chu, so let's drink some rice wine today. How about it?"
Chujianghe is indispensable. Baijiu has been popular for a much shorter time than rice wine.
What do you mean by rice wine? Ordinary rice wine is not delicious, but good rice wine is not cheap.
It's just that in later generations, white wine has become the mainstream. This high-end rice wine has lost favor among people, and the price has gradually become unsaleable.
However, truly high-end rice wine is still expensive.
Considering Zhao Shizong's status, the rice wine he got would definitely not be inferior.
Lao Wu volunteered to open the wine jar on the table, and after just one sniff, he exclaimed: "Good wine!"
When he was in the capital, he often went to high-end banquets and was no stranger to high-end rice wine. He could tell it was top quality just by smelling it with his nose.
Lao Wu himself was good at this. Seeing the good wine at this moment suddenly aroused the greed in his stomach. If he hadn't been surrounded by such a person, he really wanted to drink a big bowl right now.
Zhao Shizong chuckled and said, "The 30-year-old flower withered."
These flower pots were his father's collection. Hearing that Chu Jianghe was going to be washed away by the wind and dust today, his father let him take two pots.
Seriously speaking, he was the one who took advantage of Chu Jianghe. If it weren't for this nobleman of the Zhao family, he wouldn't have this good fortune.
Today's banquet was originally for Chu Jianghe and his wife, and there were no other outsiders, so they all enjoyed themselves very much.
Halfway through the meal, Zhao Shizong saw that it was almost time, and then ordered someone to bring his gift and give it to Liu Yunfang.
"Brother and sister, this is a little thought from me, just think of it as a greeting gift."
Liu Yunfang didn't want to accept it at first, but she couldn't shirk it, and Chu Jianghe said it was okay, so she accepted it.
The gift is a brocade box. When you open it, you will see a longevity lock made of gold. It looks quite exquisite.
"Haha, I know you have a child, and I don't know what gift to give. After much deliberation, this is the only thing I can get. This longevity lock was made by the best master in Hong Kong Island. The thing itself is not worth much. As for the money, the most important thing is to have Master Cai consecrate it."
Zhao Shizong is not stingy. He put a lot of effort into this gift. The longevity lock is easy to find. Just buy it from a gold shop and choose the most expensive one.
However, it was not easy to invite Master Cai. Even he himself could not speak in front of Master Cai. There was really nothing he could do. That is, he asked his father to come forward, and the other party reluctantly agreed.
When giving gifts, you have to give them what they like and let the other person understand that what you are giving is more precious.
Although Liu Yunfang didn't know who Master Cai was, she knew that it was made of gold. To her, this was a great gift.
During the confinement period in the countryside, relatives only gave eggs or something like that. How could such a precious thing be given?
There was a pregnant woman next to her, namely Zheng Yueyue. Seeing this exquisite longevity lock, she also wanted to prepare one for her child, and blurted out: "I wonder which Master Cai I invited?"
Zhao Shizong glanced at her and said a name with a little pride.
It's just a longevity lock, even if it's made of gold, it's just a drop in the bucket for him. The most important thing is that Master Cai can't be invited by just anyone.
Zheng Yueyue was stunned for a moment when she heard the name.
She has been in Hong Kong Island for a long time, and she is not clear about Master Cai's reputation, and her heart is full of bitterness. Also, Master Zhao's handiwork must not be underestimated.
Master Cai is the royal master of those wealthy nobles. It is not easy to invite him.
Zheng Yueyue glanced at Liu Yunfang, who was holding the longevity lock and looked clueless, feeling nothing but envy in her heart.
Alas, people are really more popular than people.
Seeing Zhang Li still eating and drinking carelessly, Zheng Yueyue's heart suddenly became hot and she kicked him hard under the table.
Zhang Zhang, who was rough-skinned and fleshy, didn't react much after being kicked. He glanced at Zheng Yueyue suspiciously and felt a little confused. He didn't know what made this girl crazy.
Zheng Yueyue also knew that she was a nameless fire. A wife was valued only by her husband. She was just jealous and envious of Liu Yunfang's good fortune, but she knew clearly in her heart how she could be envious.
With Zhang Li's kind of virtue, he has no hope in this life.
This is life.
The remaining people were not clear about Master Cai's deeds, so Zheng Yueyue reacted slightly more strongly.
Chu Jianghe has also heard the name of Master Cai. He seems to be Li Jiacheng's royal Feng Shui master, and his strength is evident.
Seeing Zheng Yueyue's reaction, Liu Yunfang understood the value of this thing no matter how slow she was, with a troubled expression on her face: "Brother Zhao, isn't this appropriate?"
Zhao Shizong waved his hand nonchalantly: "What's the point of taking back what you sent out?"
Chu Jianghe also knew that this was Zhao Shizong's wish. Although the theory of metaphysics was illusory, the intention was always good, so how could he refuse.
"Since it is Brother Zhao's heart, then you can accept it."
Even my own man said this. Besides, this thing is for the children, not for myself.
Liu Yunfang stopped insisting, accepted the thing, and said sincerely, "Thank you, Brother Zhao."
She put the things away and picked up the juice on the table: "Brother Zhao, I want to toast you."
Zhao Shizong laughed heartily, picked up his wine glass, touched it with Liu Yunfang, and drank it all in one gulp.
The guests enjoyed the meal thoroughly, and it was not until about eleven o'clock in the evening that the two flowerbeds were divided by several people, and the banquet broke up.
Zhao Shizong made an appointment with Chu Jianghe to go to HSBC Bank tomorrow, and he then took his leave.
It seemed that his wife had unconditional trust in him. How could he, Chu Jianghe, not be moved.
In the evening, Zhao Shizong arranged dinner at the Four Seasons Hotel, with Zhang Li and the others accompanying them, and they sat down around the large round table.
