Mr. Zhao Dingkai held the upper position, and below him were a group of middle-aged uncles. Wang Zhanshan handed two cigarettes to Zhao Qinghong, and the matchmaker's work was completed.
"Xue Ming, this is my old comrade Pei Zhengming, your name is Uncle Pei." Zhao Qinghong handed two packs of cigarettes to Xue Ming.
"Hello, Uncle Pei!" Xue Ming bowed lightly and handed out the cigarette with both hands. Lao Pei was the leader of the task force that handled the Zhao Xue case. He did his duty first and then later.
"What a waste of money, uncle. I usually can't bear to smoke such good cigarettes." Pei Zhengming laughed.
Laughter also sounded in the room. Double Happiness cigarettes, which cost [-] cents a pack, are indeed the best cigarettes nowadays. Ordinary people buy cut tobacco and smoke dry cigarettes.
Zhao Qinghong took Xue Ming and continued to introduce, "This is your uncle Ma Baoguo. Old Ma works in the provincial court."
"Hello Uncle Ma, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to support me." Xue Ming respectfully offered two packs of cigarettes.
The people in the room were all friends of Zhao Dingkai and Zhao Qinghong, and Xue Ming was confused after the introduction.
The one with the smallest position turned out to be Principal Liu of No. [-] Middle School in the provincial capital. The others were either cadres in government agencies or leaders of state-owned enterprises.
If these people jump up and stamp their feet together, they can make the provincial capital tremble. Their energy is too great.
Xue Ming gave the Zhao family a valuable betrothal gift, and the Zhao family gave him equally valuable connections. Sometimes connections are more valuable than property.
The guests chatted happily while eating melon seeds, and Xue Ming secretly recorded their positions in a small notebook.
At this time, Zhao Dingkai, who was not energetic enough, had gone back to the bedroom to rest, while Zhao Qinghong stayed to entertain the guests.
"Xiao Xue, my daughter and Xiaoxue are good friends. I heard that you want to challenge the eighth-level workers to match Xiaoxue's outstanding people's teacher." Meng Bo, the director of the sewing machine factory asked.
Level [-] workers is a gimmicky topic. Everyone quieted down and listened. Xue Ming smiled lightly and said, "I have this idea, but I haven't put it into action yet."
"If you have this idea, find a way to come to our sewing machine factory. Only factories that produce valuable and high-end industrial products will have eighth-level workers." Meng Bo straightened his back and said.
"Children, you can carefully consider your uncle Meng's words. It seems that there has never been an eighth-level worker in the light bulb factory. Comrade Lao Huo, what I said is right." Zhao Qinghong asked Xue Ming's factory director Huo Ran.
"Although I don't want to admit it, it's a fact. There are only two fifth-level workers in the No. [-] Light Bulb Factory. Lao Meng, it's a bit unkind of you to poach in front of me." Huo Ran winked at Meng Bo.
"I'm sorry, Lao Huo, I was just joking, you can't take it seriously." Meng Bo directly smoothed things over.
Laughter rang out again in the room, and everyone here wanted to recruit Xue Ming to their own units.
First, because Xue Ming's financial strength is far ahead, no one will dislike his subordinate being a rich man. If you need money urgently in the future, you can borrow money from Xue Ming.
What's more important is that Xue Ming is about to become the son-in-law of the Zhao family. As long as Mr. Zhao, the giant Buddha, is in the Zhao family, he will continue to be strong.
Xue Ming listened quietly to their bragging, but he didn't expect that a modest betrothal gift would catch the eye of the big bosses, and the engagement party turned into a poaching convention.
Pei Zhengming, who was sitting next to Xue Ming, whispered, "Old Zhao, I remember that Xue Ming helped us catch enemy agents a few years ago. Why don't we let this kid resign and come to our unit to serve the people."
Xue Ming was a little confused because he had never considered entering the public security system. He scratched his head and whispered, "Uncle Pei, I am used to being free. I may not be able to adapt to the police."
"Let's talk about it later. Our unit is not short of manpower now." Zhao Qinghong suddenly felt that this was feasible and could consider transferring his prospective son-in-law to the Public Security Bureau.
The backyard of the Zhao family was also very lively. A group of women from Zhongqingshan gathered around to watch Zhao Xue's betrothal gifts, eager to take two of them home.
The two mothers, Liu Yue'e and Qin Fengru, sat together and chatted, but their eyes did not leave the bride price, for fear that someone would steal it secretly.
"Sister Liu, the betrothal gift given by my child is a bit heavy. I don't even know how to repay the gift." Qin Fengru said in a low voice.
"Sister Qin, don't say that. In fact, I also think that these items combined are not as good as a hair of Xiaoxue. My Xue Ming can marry Xiaoxue because of his good deeds in his previous life." Liu Yue'e kept saying New Year greetings.
When her son prepared these betrothal gifts, she was so scared that she couldn't sleep for two days and two nights. Fortunately, Zhao Xue was not a person who was greedy for money. No matter how much the betrothal gifts were, they would just be transferred from the left hand to the right hand.
Qin Fengru was elated, "Xue Ming is no worse than Xiaoxue. Don't worry, Sister Liu, these betrothal gifts will belong to the two children in the future. I will let Xiaoxue take them all over."
The two mothers boasted about each other's business, and Zhao Shufen kept complimenting them. The scene was full of laughter.
An hour later, the women were still watching the betrothal gift. Zhao Shufen's daughter-in-law, Wang Xiaona, held the silk and satin in her hands and said, "My good cousin, please give me two feet of silk and satin. I want to make a cotton-padded jacket for my mother."
Here, Zhao Shufen rolled her eyes and said to herself, this damn girl is using me to cover her up again. I haven’t worn any clothes made by you since you got married.
The betrothal gift belonged to Zhao Xue, and the elders were not happy to speak. Liu Yuee sat quietly and wanted to see how her daughter-in-law would handle it.
"My good sister, this is a betrothal gift. I can't decide. Why don't you go ahead and ask Xue Ming what he wants? If he agrees, I'll have no objection." Zhao Xue showed a professional smile.
"Brother-in-law doesn't know me, so he will definitely not agree. My good sister, just give me three feet." Wang Xiaona continued to stalk me.
Other relatives also watched helplessly. If Zhao Xue gave the cloth to Wang Xiaona, they would ask for it. They are all relatives and cannot be partial.
"No!" Zhao Xue refused directly, "Mom, aunt, help me put the things away."
Liu Yue'e and Qin Fengru immediately stood up to help. Zhao Shufen could only secretly cry out that it was a pity. She didn't dare to think about gold, silver and jewelry, and she couldn't even get three feet of cloth.
Qin Fengru went to the front and called her two sons to move things together. All the betrothal gifts were moved to Zhao Xue's boudoir, and the grain and meat were moved directly into the kitchen.
Zhao Xue finally put her heart into her stomach, locked the door behind her and smiled playfully, "You just daydream. This is a gift from my husband. I won't give you anything."
Gold, silver jewelry and antiques are all locked in boxes. Now that the country is promoting the spirit of hardship and simplicity, it is not appropriate to go out wearing jewelry.
After packing her things, she opened her small treasury and took out all her savings to count exactly [-] yuan. This was the salary she had saved as a teacher.
There was a knock on the door outside the house, "Xiaoxue, are you there? Uncle Zhao asked me to come over and chat with you."
"Here!" Zhao Xue hurriedly opened the door and invited Xue Ming into the house. She handed all her savings to Xue Ming, "From now on, you will be the head of our family. Is this my savings? Please keep it safe for me?"
"Uh? What kind of drama is this?" Xue Ming was amused by her serious look.
