Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Secretary Gao waved his hand and said, "I'll sit next to Master He. Old Liu, go and do your thing." Xu Damao tactfully gave up his seat. Secretary Gao smiled and nodded and said, "You should be the son of Master Xu from the Propaganda Department. You look a lot like your father."

Xu Damao nodded with a smile, and quickly poured Secretary Gao a cup of tea, saying, "Secretary Gao, you have a good eye. My father is Xu Lide, and I have now come to our steel mill." Secretary Gao nodded with a smile and said, "You are really young and promising. Young people should make contributions to our country."

Xu Damao nodded, took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it for Secretary Gao, acting like a bootlicker. Secretary Gao was very happy. He usually served the factory director like this. Now that someone was serving him like this, how could he not be happy?

Xu Damao was very good at flattering people, and soon he made Secretary Gao laugh. He turned around and saw Liu Haizhong was still there, and waved his hand and said, "Old Liu, you go ahead and do your work. Master He and the others will sit at the same table. You guys should go to the main table. I won't get involved."

What else could Liu Haizhong do after seeing this? He could only sigh and leave. He felt a little jealous and resentful. He originally wanted to establish a relationship with Secretary Gao so that he could also become an official in the steel mill. But don't underestimate the profession of secretary. He can be said to be the director's boss and the object of flattery by the workshop directors.

But seeing the three people chatting so happily, Liu Haizhong couldn't say anything. He could only sigh and go downstairs to greet other guests. Zhao Tianshan's face was green. He was very dissatisfied with his son-in-law. Who were the people who came to congratulate his son-in-law? Aren't they just some factory workers? He looked down on Liu Guangqi in his heart, but he didn't know what kind of drug this kid had given his daughter? He was so desperate that he would not marry anyone else?

Yang Ruihua and Wu Cuihua felt a headache when they saw Jia Zhangshi. Jia Zhangshi was a very shameless person. Before the meal even started, she grabbed the melon seeds on the table and started to eat them. If you want to eat melon seeds, just eat them. Why are you making such a big noise? There was a pile of melon seed shells under Jia Zhangshi's feet, which made Yang Ruihua, who always loved cleanliness, frown.

She looked at Jia Dongxu and his wife at the next table, rolled her eyes and said, "Ms. Jia Zhang, why don't you sit at the same table with your son and daughter-in-law?" Wu Cuihua smiled and nodded and said, "Yes, this family should sit at the same table." The two had a simple plan in mind. They wanted to trick Jia Zhang to sit at the next table. They also wanted to eat more food.

While eating melon seeds, Jia Zhang said, "No, I won't go. I'm fine sitting here. Besides, it doesn't matter which table I sit at!" Thinking of his wife's advice, Yang Ruihua still said with a stiff upper lip, "Most of the people at the table next to us are men, with your daughter-in-law being the only woman. They will definitely drink when school starts, and will not have time to eat. You can eat more food if you sit at that table."

Wu Cuihua nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, yes, you should go quickly." Jia Zhang ate some melon seeds and shook her head, saying, "No, no, I won't go. It's good for me to sit here, and we sisters can chat. If I go to the seat next to me, who will I chat with? Not with a bunch of men like you."

What else did Yang Ruihua want to say? Ma Yucheng's apprentices came to the table with dishes. "Let's start the feast. The first dish is cold-mixed shredded vegetables, the second dish is stir-fried cabbage. The third dish is stewed chicken with mushrooms, the fourth dish is braised pork elbow. The fifth dish is yellow croaker, the sixth dish is stir-fried mushrooms..." The banquet at Old Liu's house was quite good. This was a banquet that Liu Haizhong emptied out his family fortune to hold for his eldest son.

Dishes were served one after another, and the people at the table didn't know what politeness was, they just picked up their chopsticks and started eating. For a while, everyone at the table stopped chatting, even the men who were drinking put down their glasses and started eating. He Yuzhu picked up a piece of mushroom, put it in his mouth, chewed it, nodded and said, "Not bad, you are worthy of being the apprentice taught by the senior brother!"

Secretary Gao said curiously, "Oh, the chef cooking today is your nephew, Master He!" He Yuzhu nodded and said, "Yes, he is my nephew, the eldest disciple of my senior brother." Secretary Gao also picked up a piece of food and started eating, nodded and said, "Although it is not as delicious as Master He's dishes, it is not bad."

Thinking that the branch factory was still short of a chef, Secretary Gao asked after thinking for a while, "Master He, we are still short of a head chef in the Yanjing branch. Can you ask if your nephew wants to work there?" He Yuzhu thought for a while and said, "Well, I have to discuss this with my nephew and my brothers. I can't give you a direct answer."

Secretary Gao nodded and said, "I understand. I know some things about the chef industry. But you have to do it as soon as possible. The branch factory is short of a chef, and Director Yang is having a headache recently." He Yuzhu nodded and said, "I will try my best to arrange it as soon as possible, don't worry."

The three men ate and drank at the same time, and the atmosphere was very pleasant. Qin Huairu, who was standing next to them, was naturally very happy. She was very proud that her man could actually chat with the secretary of Director Yang. Looking at the wine glasses on the table, Qin Huairu also happily drank a few glasses of wine.

Liu Guangqi's matchmaker was found by his father-in-law Zhao Tianshan, who is a subordinate of Zhao Tianshan. He is in his thirties, and his determined eyes show that he has served in the army. The witness's high-pitched voice came out, and he said to the people in the audience with a smile, "Dear friends and relatives who came to congratulate, everyone please be quiet for a while. I am Gao Dashan, the witness of this wedding. Today is an auspicious day and time. Let us welcome Liu Guangqi and Zhao Erya, the newlyweds, to make a shining appearance."

Following the high-pitched and loud voice of the marriage seeker, Liu Guangqi and his wife walked out hand in hand. He Yuzhu looked at Liu Guangqi's wife Zhao Erya, who looked very ordinary. Perhaps because of doting, Zhao Erya was also a fat girl. Xu Damao curled his lips and said, "How could Liu Guangqi be so blind to marry such a fat girl, and not be afraid of being crushed to death at night."
