Zhao Tiezhu was directly greeted by Mr. Zhao and sat on his left hand side, while Zhao Ergou sat on Mr. Zhao's right hand. Now it was a little difficult for Manyu to sit, because sitting next to Zhao Tiezhu was Zhao Meifeng.
A total of nine seats were arranged at this table. Mr. Zhao, Zhao Tiezhu, Zhao Ergou, Ye Qingxia, Cao Ziyi, and the leaders of the other four branches were all filled up at once.
"Brother Tiezhu, let me go to the side." Manyu said obediently, and was about to walk to the side, but Zhao Tiezhu took Manyu's hand and said, "It's okay, brother is holding you."
"What the hell is this!" Zhao Meiqin, who was sitting opposite Zhao Tiezhu, said dissatisfiedly, "How can some random person sit at the main table?"
Zhao Tiezhu frowned. Since Mr. Zhao was here, he did not directly refute Zhao Meiqin in front of Mr. Zhao. Instead, he said, "Manyu is still a child, I am willing to hold him."
"Can you do it if you want to? What do you think our Zhao family is? A vegetable market? If anyone comes to me, I'm willing to do it, so why don't we still make a living without doing anything?" Zhao Meiqin said sternly.
Zhao Tiezhu really didn't want to endure it anymore, but just when it was about to explode, Zhao Tiezhu saw a trace of pride in Zhao Meiqin's eyes.
"I'm going to go, this old woman is trying to anger me!" Zhao Tiezhu reacted very quickly and immediately knew the sinister intentions of this old woman. She was planning to directly anger me in front of Mr. Zhao. If she did something by then
If something bad happens, Mr. Zhao can't help himself if he sees it in person.
Zhao Tiezhu's heart calmed down instantly, and then he looked at Mr. Zhao and asked, "Second Grandpa, I'll hold Manyu, is that okay?"
Mr. Zhao said, "Stop holding me, Laifu, and ask their parents to come over."
Laifu, who was standing next to Mr. Zhao at any time, nodded, ran to the side and moved a chair over, placing it next to Zhao Tiezhu. Zhao Meifeng stood up with a smile and moved a bit. Zhao Tiezhu glanced at Zhao Meifeng gratefully and couldn't help but sigh,
Why is there such a big gap between this person and others?
Manyu was sitting on a chair. Due to his height, he could only put his head above the table. Zhao Laifu brought a few cushions over and placed them under Manyu.
"Okay, let's serve." Mr. Zhao said calmly.
"Yes!" Zhao Laifu bowed and left.
"Meiqin, no matter what Tiezhu says, he is still a member of my main lineage. You should be more careful when speaking in the future." Mr. Zhao said lightly, without looking at Zhao Meiqin.
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Meiqin's expression changed. According to the seniority in the family, she is Mr. Zhao's cousin, so if Mr. Zhao is not a member of the main line, she is more noble than Mr. Zhao, and Mr. Zhao is the main lineage.
If she has a pulse, then she is more noble than her, but on weekdays, Mr. Zhao still fully respects Zhao Meiqin. What Zhao Meiqin didn't expect was that less than a few hours after Zhao Tiezhu came back, Mr. Zhao actually wanted to do something about Zhao Tiezhu.
I reprimanded myself! This is simply unbelievable!
"Brother! I'm teaching him the family rules of our Zhao family!" Zhao Meiqin didn't speak as harshly as Zhao Tiezhu did at this time, but became very gentle and graceful, "You also know that Tiezhu has been there since he was a child.
He doesn’t stay here, and if I don’t tell him a lot of things, he won’t understand.”
"Cousin, thank you very much. We will take care of Tiezhu's affairs, so you don't have to worry about it." Zhao Ergou smiled and finally spoke for Zhao Tiezhu, which made Zhao Tiezhu think that his father didn't care about him.
The lonely man felt relieved.
"Er Gou, I have to talk to you about this. You have been abroad for more than ten years, so I guess you have forgotten the rules in your family, and you were not a
In our family, we probably don’t pay much attention to family rules. As the saying goes, there is no rule without rules. You also need to learn more about the rules at home, so as not to be noticed by others when you go out and say that we in the Zhao family do not follow the rules.
,Brother, you said this, right?" Zhao Meiqin looked at Mr. Zhao and asked.
"There are rules." Mr. Zhao said calmly, "Er Gou has just come back. Don't be in a hurry. Learn them slowly. No one can learn them all in one day."
Zhao Meiqin snorted and wanted to say something else, but the food and so on had already been served.
"Eat, today is a happy day, let's eat more and drink more." Mr. Zhao said.
Everyone else fell silent, including other branch leaders who were still talking from time to time. This was enough to show that Mr. Zhao's power could still control a lot of people.
Cao Ziyi was sitting with Ye Qingxia. She looked at Zhao Tiezhu and smiled slightly. Zhao Tiezhu also shrugged. To be honest, this is the reason why he doesn't like big families. He eats with a group of people at home, then
There are really all kinds of sounds, including talking, singing, playing, and even farting. Anyway, they are all unrestrained. No one is afraid of anyone, and everyone has to give way to others. The group of people are harmonious and beautiful, and they eat together.
fragrant.
Zhao Tiezhu's heart became more and more determined at this time. If possible in the future, it would be better not to live in Zhao's house, but to live outside with his own family. That life would be so pleasant and beautiful.
After eating in silence for about five minutes, Mr. Zhao said, "Let's have a drink."
As soon as these words came out, everyone started to become active. Some people who had friendship with Zhao Ergou in the past came forward to toast Zhao Ergou. Some people who planned to get to know Zhao Ergou now also came to the main table.
This way.
Manyu sat obediently in her seat, eating the food that Zhao Tiezhu brought her. Zhao Tiezhu also ate leisurely. From the beginning to the end, those people were toasting to their father, and no one was toasting to herself.
Yes, Zhao Tiezhu is not stupid. He naturally knows the reason why everyone does not toast him. His father is still more likely to rise to the top, and he also knows a lot of people. He is in the Zhao family, so what does that mean? Really what?
It doesn’t count. At the main table, in terms of status, apart from Manyu, I might be the worst. No matter how I take the turn, I can’t get it!
Zhao Tiezhu was also happy that he didn't have to drink. Anyway, the food here was quite good. Drink less wine and eat more food.
When the toasts to Zhao Ergou over there were almost complete, someone finally came to Zhao Tiezhu for a drink. Note here, they came to Zhao Tiezhu for a drink, not to toast Zhao Tiezhu. There is a difference here.
Zhao Tiezhu naturally came to have a drink. Anyway, he had no foundation in the Zhao family. It would be a good thing to get to know a few more people.
The banquet lasted for about two hours and then ended. Mr. Zhao and several other old people were going back to sleep. Zhao Tiezhu naturally took Cao Ziyi back to his room, but before leaving, Zhao Tiezhu saw Zhao Meiqin's eyes.
There is a hint of viciousness in it, and I can't help but feel helpless, your son has not done anything to me yet, and you are so nakedly confronting me. Do you think I don't dare to hit the old man, or do you think you have a lot of power?
