When Su Miaomiao was chatting with a group of female relatives of the Gui family, Gui Mengjun also walked down from the second floor with her father.
Everyone stood up. Gui Mengjun walked over first and softly introduced to Miaomiao: "This is my father. Dad, this is Su Miaomiao from the Su family in Longcheng, my girlfriend."
"Hello, uncle!" Su Miaomiao bent down slightly and greeted the other party politely.
Mr. Gui looked at Miao Miao, nodded slightly, and extended his palm first with the same great attention to etiquette: "Hello, you are welcome to be a guest at home."
When Su Miaomiao saw the other person extending his hand, he took the initiative to shake his hand: "Thank you for your hospitality, uncle!"
"It's pretty good." When Mr. Gui spoke, he had a strong Burmese-Vietnamese accent. He also looked kind in appearance, not at all like a patriarch who has been in charge of a powerful family for many years: "Everyone, please sit down."
"Take a seat." Gui Mengjun greeted everyone with a smile.
After hearing this, everyone walked to the dining table politely and sat down according to their seating order.
According to the population size of the Gui family, there were actually not many people present today. There were more than a dozen people in total. In addition to Mr. Gui, there were also brothers and sisters of Gui Mengjun. Those who got married also brought their children and partners.
To be honest, Su Miaomiao was still a little nervous before coming to the dinner party today, but this kind of nervousness actually has little to do with her family background, because Miaomiao has not been a girl without self-confidence since she was a child.
He is not a rich man, but he is definitely not a child of a small family.
His father is an army officer, his family is prosperous, he owns property, and there are many famous figures among his relatives and friends. When Gou Liuzi's father was in his glory, he was also a figure who could speak up in the Chinese Corps in the First District.
Therefore, Su Miaomiao's inner nervousness mainly comes from meeting the man's family. She is afraid that people will make her ask questions. This is quite embarrassing for the third sister who has a straightforward personality.
.
However, what makes Su Miaomiao more gratified is that the relatives in Guimengjun's family seem to be very well-educated. Although most of the chats during the banquet were too polite and made people feel a bit hypocritical, after all,
This is also the first time that both parties have met. If they are too familiar and casual, it will appear abnormal.
At the dinner table, Gui Mengjun's father didn't move his chopsticks much because he had diabetes and rarely ate much at night. However, he did not ignore Miaomiao and took the initiative to ask about Miaomiao's family situation.
"Then your father is retired now?" Gui's father asked with a smile.
"Yes." Su Miaomiao replied softly: "Now, my two younger brothers are in charge of everything at home, and I also help out."
"Two younger brothers? I've met them, right?"
"Yes, you should have met Tianyu and Tianbei. They have been to Hanoi before." Su Miaomiao replied.
When Gui's father heard their names, he immediately smiled and praised: "Su Tianyu, this kid is amazing! I heard that General Fu in the Chinese District praised him!"
"Haha, yes." Gui Mengjun interjected: "As for the matter on Island No. 7, General Fu met him once. Later, when it came to the information, I even helped him with a word. General Fu
The praise given to him is also very special, saying that he has eight hundred minds."
Gui's father put his hands in with a smile, turned to look at the third sister and said: "Actually, your emotional relationship with the Chinese District is not the same as ours. After all, you are of the same ancestry and have the same origin. In fact, it is beneficial to have more contact.
These words sounded very abrupt, and based on Third Sister’s experience and political acumen at this period, she did not understand the meaning of Gui’s father’s words at all. She only smiled and echoed: “Yes, yes, it’s just that in Longcheng,
It's hard for us to reach people back home."
"Don't worry, in the future you and Meng Jun will do business in this area together, and you will inevitably have to have more contact with people over there." Gui's father replied with a double entendre.
Listening to the conversation, Su Miaomiao felt that he had ulterior motives, but she still didn't quite understand.
"I have prepared some gifts for your father." Gui's father continued: "When you leave later, you can take them with you and give them to your father for me."
"This... this is so embarrassing." Su Miaomiao was stunned for a moment and replied: "I want to thank you on behalf of my father, uncle!"
"When you are free, I will ask Meng Jun to invite your parents and family to come and sit together." Gui's father replied tactfully.
"Okay, okay."
"Okay, you guys can eat and chat, I'm going to rest." Gui's father slowly stood up: "Otherwise, I won't be able to sleep for a while."
The Gui family's dinner ended in less than an hour. For Su Miaomiao personally, the meal was far easier than she thought, because in her expectation, the image of Gui's father should be like that
He is a serious business boss who is hard to get in touch with, but when we sit down and chat, he seems to be quite easy-going.
After the dinner, Gui Mengjun and his relatives sent Miaomiao and Dabai back to the hotel.
Standing downstairs, Gui Mengjun asked enthusiastically: "Don't you invite me to come up and sit for a while? Two hours is enough!"
"What are you thinking?!" Su Miaomiao playfully clasped her fists and replied, "Goodbye, Mr. Gui!"
"Haha, okay, go to bed early!"
"Bye!" Su Miaomiao walked into the hotel with Dabai.
After a meal, the winner in life is my brother Bai. The most he has done in his life is to go back to the hotel with his girlfriend.
…
late at night.
Gui Mengjun returned home and saw his father in the study on the second floor.
The two drank tea and were silent for a while before Gui's father frowned and asked, "Have you decided?"
"Yes, it's decided and cannot be changed." Gui Mengjun raised his head and responded.
Father Gui put his hands in his hands: "If you go by my ideas, I don't agree with you marrying a girl from the Su family. I think you should focus on local industry, but now that the family affairs have been handed over to you,
If it’s done, then I won’t say any more.”
"Yeah." Gui Mengjun nodded slowly.
"Marrying Su Miaomiao, playing in luxury casinos, the future benefits are indeed immeasurable." Gui's father looked at his son and reminded him softly: "But the risks are also very high, you should be cautious."
Gui Mengjun glanced at his father: "When I marry her, I don't just do it outside the stadium, but I also have a lot of personal emotions."
When Gui's father heard this, he said nothing more: "Pay attention to uniting local relations."
"We should be united, but there is nothing we can do if we cannot unite." Gui Mengjun picked up the teacup and replied very decisively: "No matter what kind of partner, what kind of friend, it is impossible to always agree with your ideas.
That's unrealistic, Dad."
"As long as you know what's going on."
…
In the hotel, Dabai sent a text message to Su Tianyu: "I'm ready to return!"
