Although he had guessed this outcome, Fan Jinyou was still very disappointed when it actually happened.
After all, Hou Kui is his cheap son whom he has raised for more than 20 years, so how can he be emotionless?
Not to mention a person, even a cat or dog will become very emotionally involved if you keep it for a long time.
Hou Kui betrayed this family for a woman.
Just like a dog he had raised for more than ten years and ran away with others after listening to other people's words, Fan Jinyou still felt chilled.
Fan Zhihua knew the news. It must have been He Chunfen, He Lixia, or Xu Jingtian. One of the three people had a phone call and heard the news.
I don’t know which Fan Jinyou it is, but in order of possibility, He Lixia is the biggest and Xu Jingtian is the smallest.
"Then let's do it next time." Chen Xueru also knew that Hou Kui and Xu Jingli had gone away together and there was no hope of calling them back.
Then he washed his hands, put on an apron, stood in front of the stove and said, "I know about Zhijun's situation. He has been in the hotel all day. It won't be long before he comes back from get off work. I will simply cook Just two dishes and we’ll have dinner.”
…
"During this period, you are all very busy and working very hard. Eat more, pick up the wine glasses, and let's have a drink with your mother."
After the dishes were served, Fan Jinyou spoke first.
There is a mother who loves to drink. She often drinks alcohol when eating at home, so her children have all become good drinkers.
The children are already adults in their twenties, and they like to drink well but not get drunk. Even if they are not drunk, Fan Jinyou and Chen Xueru will not care about their children.
"Mom, you've suffered a lot for us, so we'd like to toast you."
"Mom, we respect you."
As soon as the two sons opened their mouths, Fan Jinyou felt that the atmosphere had become strange. It was not the New Year, nor was it anyone's birthday, so he became awkward. Maybe the whole family was cooking at home, and the time for serious meals together had become too much.
few.
"Here, let's have a drink. Thank you, Lao Fan, and thank you two children. It's not hard, Mom."
The two sons were still too young and thought Chen Xueru was being modest. Only Fan Jinyou knew that Chen Xueru might be telling the truth. She was busy with business all day, and Chen Xueru enjoyed it.
The whole family is eating at home. Although the atmosphere is a little strange today, it is still much better than eating in a restaurant, even if it is your own restaurant.
When eating in a restaurant, there is always a feeling that it is just to fill the stomach, it is a work meal, and it is not leisurely enough.
"Xueru~"
"Chen Xueru~"
"Xueru, someone is calling you." Fan Jinyou heard a voice coming from the front yard.
"No," Chen Xueru listened carefully and said, "There is no sound. Who would come to the door during this meal time."
"Dad, there was no sound, and I didn't hear it either."
Because food has not been abundant for many years, the old rule passed down from generation to generation is that we do not visit each other during meal times. Even though food has become less valuable in recent years, the rule has not changed.
"Xueru, are you at home?"
As the sound got closer and louder, all four people heard it clearly. Fan Jinyou heard it more clearly. It was Xu Huizhen's voice.
"It's Xu Huizhen here." After saying that, Fan Jinyou and Chen Xueru got up together and went out to greet the guests. Before going out, they said again, "You two, go on to eat, and your mother and I will see what's going on.
"
"Manager Xu, I'm a rare visitor. Have you eaten yet? If not, we are still eating. Let's eat some together."
After exiting the door of the west wing, Xu Huizhen was seen walking into the courtyard, followed by Cai Quanwu, who was habitually silent.
The competition between the two became more and more fierce, and when Xu Huizhen met Chen Xueru, she would tease Chen Xueru about Hou Kui chasing Xu Jingli. When Chen Xueru faced Xu Huizhen, she was somewhat rude, visiting during meals, and inviting people to dinner.
This is normal courtesy.
No matter how Fan Jinyou listened, he could tell that Chen Xueru was accusing Xu Huizhen of not following the rules, because she had some urgent matter and came to the door during dinner.
"Lao Cai and I have eaten together and won't eat at your house anymore. I came here in such a hurry because I heard the news and came here to congratulate you."
You can always believe that Xu Hui is really shameless and will never be embarrassed because of her rudeness.
A woman who can open a tavern business among men is not that thin-skinned.
"Let's sit in the room first. What are you congratulating me for?" No matter what, there were always customers coming to the door. When hearing that the two of them were not eating, Chen Xueru still invited the two of them to sit in the main room.
"Of course, congratulations to you, Chen Xueru, Boss Chen. You have a successful career. You have bought a building and opened a hotel! I heard that the scale is quite large. It is all prepared according to the three-star rating from abroad."
Although the domestic hotel rating system has not yet started, as the country has increased communication with the outside world, many foreign opinions have spread.
Of course, Xu Huizhen came over aggressively, and she definitely didn't come here to congratulate her sincerely. You don't need to think about it to know that Xu Huizhen just didn't want Chen Xueru to be too proud and make Chen Xueru uncomfortable.
"Hey you, just because of this, I also want to congratulate you, Boss Xu. I heard that you also bought a building, which seems to be used to open a hotel."
"Come, have tea, Boss Xu, Lao Cai have tea."
After Fan Jinyou had done all the etiquette, he sat down with peace of mind.
Waiting to see Xu Huizhen's performance, what confidence do you have? Since the hotel is not as big as it is, I have already lost a lot and even approached the Fan family.
"Boss Chen is very well-informed. Chen Xueru, tell the truth. Did you open a hotel just because I knew I was going to open a hotel? You just wanted to outdo me."
Xu Huizhen showed up shirtless and asked Fan Jin if he had thought of it. His performance was not up to his usual level at all.
Fan Jinyou wondered whether Xu Hui really worked hard, leaving early and returning late, buying and selling. After several years, she finally made enough money and bought a hotel, hoping to overtake Xueru Restaurant.

Unexpectedly, Chen Xueru directly opened a larger hotel and smeared Xu Hui's Zhenqi Lake. On impulse, she ran over without any preparation.
"You say this, Xu Huizhen, before you question me, please tell me the reason why you want to open a hotel. Is it because the hotel is larger in scale and can provide food and accommodation? You want to surpass my Xueru Restaurant in the limelight.
Suppress me?"
Chen Xueru said calmly that she finally made some progress when facing Xu Huizhen.
"How is this possible? Restaurants and hotels, one is in charge of food and the other is in charge of accommodation. They are not in the same industry. Chen Xueru heard that your hotel is about to open, right?"
