Adventures of a middle-aged uncle

After Bai Haijie finished speaking, Bai Xiao immediately rolled his eyes and held back his words.

He Hao smiled and said, "It's not anymore."

Bai Haijie raised his eyebrows, pretending to be surprised, and said, "That's really a pity, since Xiaoxiao is here, then I won't accompany you, please come to the banquet hall to gather later." After speaking, he politely rushed to Xu Qingze Nod and leave.

Xu Qingze watched Bai Haijie leave and said to Bai Xiao, "Your second uncle and your father have quite good personalities."

Bai Xiao said helplessly: "Yeah, he and my father have been at odds, but he treats me well."

He Hao said to Bai Xiao a little dotingly: "In your family, you are the most lawless."

Bai Xiao smiled and said: "No, I am my grandpa's most beloved granddaughter, who dares to treat me badly, let's go to the front hall to have dinner quickly, I have arranged good seats for you, just eat and drink."

The banquet hall is a venue that can accommodate thousands of people.The residential property of Xiangyun Villa is specially prepared for the birthday of old master Bai.Because it is in Xiangyun Mountain Villa, the luxury of the venue is unnecessary. The whole venue is decorated in an antique style, and every table is equipped with high-quality Maotai wine and soft packs of Zhonghua cigarettes.

It wasn't until we entered the venue that we knew that this birthday banquet was open to anyone who knew it, and there was no limit on the number of people.However, some wealthy businessmen and important figures still sit relatively in the front, which is also a social circle that they naturally draw.

So you see in this world, everyone calls for equality.But once there is a society, it will naturally divide the social hierarchy and form social circles, and there is no good way to change the social hierarchy except for earth-shaking revolutions and wars.

What Bai Xiao said was indeed true. She placed us in a relatively remote corner of the banquet hall. There were only a few of us at the table, plus a little girl who didn't talk much. It was Bai Xiao's good friend Qian Yu. She secretly looked at the four of us. After a while, he didn't speak.Quietly giggling at the phone.

There were people coming and going in the banquet hall, and many people I met on the day of Zhou Jiaqi's exhibition, probably some wealthy businessmen, every time I go to this banquet or that exhibition, I want to join in the crowd, looking for excitement.They took turns toasting each other, which was very lively.

Xu Qingze quietly hid in the corner, tasting good red wine. He planned to have a luxurious light meal with his companions in peace, but Professor Xu's reputation was too loud, so someone with sharp eyes took him out of the corner. Lila came out to show off his cultural temperament, flattering Xu Qingze in all kinds of ways, Xu Qingze could only follow them to the bustle.

He Hao and I didn't know each other until the end, so we happily watched the jade plate full of delicacies.

Unexpectedly, God is not open, and I was caught by my boss who was observing the visitors one by one.

When He Guohua swung his arms and came to me, I happened to hold a chopstick of beef slices to my mouth, saw He Guohua holding a wine glass and said: "Hey, I said you have something to do at home, not just for this white Let's celebrate the old man's birthday."

This He Guohua is a big fat man with no real skills.However, he is the director, and I am only the deputy director, so it is inevitable to be overwhelmed by him everywhere.When I saw him, I could only laugh and say, "Wow, Mr. He was joking. It doesn't mean that my wife is sick. I heard that Mr. Bai has a doctor in charge who is good at treating this disease, so I just entrusted my relationship to join in the fun. "

Fatty He glanced at the comatose Ziyue, and said with a look of distaste that he couldn't hide: "You're not doing well, it's a big birthday, and you come here to seek medical treatment, and you bring a sick child with you. How unlucky it is!" Hearing my brother's persuasion, take her away quickly. It is more appropriate to discuss the matter of seeking medical treatment another day."

I thought to myself that Fatty He is meddling in his own business, and he doesn't say anything when he is always overwhelmed by people in the work unit. He has to worry about other people's family affairs. Give him a punch, why bother to be so useless.

I was just about to speak, but a thin young man at the next table came up and said: "You don't want to listen to what you said. Today, the old man Bai has already made it clear that he has a banquet, but all the people in Ruixiang City can do it." Come to join in the fun, eat such a meal, and be happy. Why can you come, and others can't."

I followed the voice and looked at the young man who was fighting for me.

Fifteen and sixteen and a half years old, tall and handsome.The clothes are very simple, even a little shabby, with a pale blue shirt and a pair of trousers dangling on the calf. It is obvious that the trousers cannot keep up with the boy's overgrown height.Especially the preaching of the young man is not like a 21st century teenager.Just like He Hao's residence, it is a good youth from the 80s and 90s.

Thinking of this, I glanced at He Hao's position next to me, and found that he was gone at some point.I hurriedly looked around but didn't see He Hao's figure.Where did he go, a daze disappeared.

Fatty He is a down-to-earth master who orders food when he sees people.He originally came here to curry favor and join in the fun through the back door, but he is also a modest official, so how could he be educated by a little boy.

In order to maintain his dignity, Fatty He didn't have the same knowledge as a little boy, but just said: "The adults don't care about that kid, he's uneducated." After speaking, he couldn't stop the contempt in his eyes.

I couldn't help but said: "Mr. He, I feel sorry for what you said. The child is telling the truth. Mr. Bai has a big heart and can accommodate everyone. Since there is no limit to opening a banquet, it is already a blessing. How could you care about my little misfortune?"

Fatty He intends to cause trouble for others, and it is because he has lost a deputy in his work unit, and no one can do things for him.If you really turned against me, it would not be easy to end, and it would be even more self-defeating, so he shook his hands and said, "You can do it yourself, I have already reported this vacation to you with the bureau, so it will be counted as annual leave."

I really want to swear in my heart, did you report it? If only you didn't catch my pigtails, it would be fine, and report my annual leave.If I hadn't accepted the director's favor, you would have reported it.Still pretending to be a wolf with a big tail here.

Fatty He swung his arms and left again. Before leaving, he poked his eyes at the young man who spoke out.

I politely said to the boy: "Little brother is really eloquent, I don't know your name."

The young man raised his head and said arrogantly: "Fang Yuanxiu, just now I really can't understand that old man with frowning eyebrows acting like a monster, so I just said a few words, it's really offensive."

How can I speak at such a young age like a private school youth who walked out of the old age,

"Little brother, did you notice the tall man sitting next to me just now?"

Fang Yuanxiu noticed my gaze and said: "Just now I saw that brother hurried to the front, why didn't you notice."

I looked in the direction of Fang Yuanxiu's finger, but there was no sign of He Hao, so I had to ask Fang Yuanxiu to sit beside me and casually chatted with him.

Fang Yuanxiu also sat down next to me without politeness and said, "That is Mrs. Ling." I nodded quickly, "Yes, my wife is sick."

Fang Yuanxiu said with a noncommittal smile, "You really believe that Bai Ziguan can cure your wife's illness."

As soon as I said this, I was stunned. What Xu Qingze said quickly in my mind that the elders of the Tujia clan made the last remnants of the Qiang people to surrender to the imperial court. Could it be that this little brother is the heir of the Tujia clan.

Thinking of this, I not only thumped in my heart, not only respected Fang Yuanxiu in front of me, but seeing that he was not very old, why did he just call the elder of the Bai family by his name.

I really dare not neglect, but I don't know how to open this mouth.

"It seems that this little brother has a good way to heal." The one who said this was none other than Xu Qingze who had just been dragged to act as a front.

I quickly sat aside and made room for Xu Qingze.Sitting just opposite to Fang Yuanxiu, the two stared at each other for a moment.

After a while, Fang Yuanxiu said, "No, but I believe Bai Ziguan didn't either."

Xu Qingze said again: "The little brother knows how he got this disease, so why not tell me about it."

Fang Yuanxiu raised his eyes and stared at Xu Qingze. Although Xu Qingze still looked calm, the provocation in his eyes was ready to come out.

Could it be that these two people are on the fence, this is the first time they met, so it's not possible.What's more, Xu Qingze is a dignified visiting professor of Xiangda University, fighting with 15 and 16-year-old little hairy kids.But the two stared at each other, making me feel a little uncomfortable.

Fang Yuanxiu cleared his throat and said, "Look at this madam, she's sleepy, as if she's been drained of energy, showing withered glory. The Twelve Meridian Water in her body is being consumed little by little. If she doesn't return within seventy-seven forty-nine hours Tian Guben regained his soul, but he really could only perish with both energy and blood."

Xu Qingze: "The little brother really has a pair of eyes. It seems that he is the noble person that Mr. Bai wants to invite."

Fang Yuanxiu snorted coldly with his nose and then said: "I just came here shamelessly, how can I be a distinguished guest invited by the Bai family."

After saying this, it made me amused, how can I say that I am shameless, this child is really interesting, like my girl who opens her eyes every day is a Korean fresh meat, and when she closes her eyes, she is American imperialism.

"Oh." Xu Qingze shook the liquid in the glass twice but did not speak.

I do have a lot of questions I want to ask this young and mature child: "That little brother, I have one more thing to ask. Since you have seen the root cause of my lover's illness, and you know that Mr. Bai may be helpless about it, then you Is there any good tricks for me to give me some pointers." Before I knew it, I started to use honorifics to Fang Yuanxiu.

Fang Yuanxiu frowned and said, "Only by finding out the people behind the scenes can we really crack it."

Xu Qingze smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's not so easy to find out the people behind the scenes."

Fang Yuanxiu put two peanuts into his mouth: "It's none of my business." After saying that, he smiled politely at me and grabbed a handful of chocolate fudge on the table, walked out of the hall, and muttered before leaving: "This free meal is good."

I looked at Fang Yuanxiu's back and said to Xu Qingze: "Should I stop him and hold him back to meet Master Bai. There should be some secret signal from the five major families."

Xu Qingze ignored me and asked, "Where is He Hao?"

"I don't know where I went..." As soon as I finished speaking, I saw He Hao appearing from behind me and said, "I just saw Grandma Lin's granddaughter Zhu Er, and she disappeared after I chased him. That Is the boy also a member of the five major families?"

"It should be, judging from his tone, even if he is not, he is an informed person." I speculated.

At this moment, the place where rich people gathered was bustling, and the person at the door was Zhou Jiaqi who hadn't seen him for a few days.

Zhou Jiaqi entered the hall in bright clothes, looked around casually, and naturally saw us, but her gaze only stayed for a few seconds, and she sat down to drink and socialize where she should go.

What is the relationship between Zhou Jiaqi and the Bai family? It must not be as simple as living next door.Since Zhou Jiaqi also came to Master Bai's birthday party this time, it is very possible for us to find out the connection between them.

After eating and drinking for a while, Master Bai finally walked to the booth under the attention of everyone. He took the microphone and said:

"Today is my Bai Ziguan's 80th birthday. In the past, I spent my birthdays with my family. This year, I took advantage of my family's birthday celebrations to get together with old friends, old subordinates, and old acquaintances. Because I am afraid that there will not be many days like this in the future. The fact that everyone is able to gather together today shows that I have not worked in vain for most of my life, and I can make good friends like you. Of course, there are also some strangers, maybe we have never met before. But today It is also our fate that you can come to my Bai family, and everyone is willing to appreciate it, which is the best blessing of my Bai Ziguan. Well, let's not talk nonsense, I hope you can eat to your heart's content."

Bai Ziguan made a short speech, then hurriedly stepped off the stage and left.Zhou Jiaqi is still communicating happily with the people around her, seemingly without any fluctuations on the surface.

Then the one who came to the stage to add to the fun was a famous new generation singer, Hyun A. It seems that Mr. Bai put a lot of thought into this birthday banquet, and even invited celebrities.Although the Bai family has only been in Ruixiang City for more than ten years, they did not expect that their financial resources and strength should not be underestimated.Originally, this Hyuna became popular after participating in the singing talent show "I speak for myself" ten years ago.

Her voice is clear, and she follows the oxygen-type Mori girl route all the year round, and most of her fans are between 20 and 30 years old.I don't know who the Bai family invited such a singer to sing a birthday song for the old man. Although the song she sang was very nice and obvious, it obviously didn't match the live effect.As for the effect of the scene, most of the people who came were elderly senior officials. They didn't have the enthusiasm of young people for singers, so they just booed and shouted well, and didn't pay much attention to the singers.

The author has something to say:

The past two days in Qingdao have been cloudy and rainy. Although my mood is rarely affected by the weather, there are few people who are particularly happy in the rainy weather! But I am very happy today!It's cold, keep warm
