"Okay, then you can concentrate on driving." Ni Hong said with a smile.
The two hung up the phone. Ni Hong smiled and put away her phone. The young man in the driver's seat immediately flattered her, "Sister Hong, you are so good that you can make Miss Lu invite you. I heard that there were a lot of people crowded this time."
Everyone wanted to attend Miss Lu’s engagement party to get in touch with Leader Liao, but only a handful of them actually received the invitation.”
Ni Hong heard the man's words and said with some pride, "Don't even look at my relationship with Lu Qian. She and I have been best friends for many years. Can she not invite me?"
"So, Sister Hong, you are awesome." The young man continued to say flatteringly.
Ni Hong smiled and nodded. She liked this feeling of being flattered. Now that Liao Gufeng has taken a step further, she is especially willing to show off to others that she has a good relationship with Lu Qian. She is Lu Qian's best friend and deliberately creates a good impression on others.
I have the impression that their family has an extraordinary relationship with the Liao family.
As for Lu Qian's engagement this time, Ni Hong knew very well that it was a grand event in the circle. As the young man said just now, many people wanted to attend the engagement party to show off their identity and status.
, and at the same time, you can also get closer to Liao Gufeng.
This is actually an invisible circle barrier. Those who are at the same level as Liao Gufeng are naturally qualified to participate in this engagement party, while others with lower levels want to squeeze into Liao Gufeng's circle by attending this engagement party.
Because if you can participate, you will have the opportunity to gain connections. If you are not even qualified to go, then you will have no chance at all.
Ni Hong was naturally secretly proud of Lu Qian's invitation. She even showed off in her circle of friends, hoping that everyone would know that she had received an invitation to attend Lu Qian's engagement party.
Therefore, this time, Ni Hong rushed back to the capital from the southwest to attend Lu Qian's engagement party. Although the journey was a bit far, Ni Hong rushed back happily. She actually lived in the capital before, but her husband came from the capital two years ago.
When he took a temporary job in a city in southwest China, Ni Hong followed him there. Although the temporary job period was over, through the relationship between the two families, he stayed in the local office and served as the mayor of the municipal district. His future was bright.
Ni Hong and her husband are a well-matched couple, and the elders of the two families are considered to be above the middle level in the capital. Although they are not as prominent as Lu Qian's family, they are still better than those above, so Lu
Qian's father, Liao Gufeng, has now reached such a high status, so Ni Hong is so keen to have a relationship with Lu Qian. This time he attended Lu Qian's engagement party, and Ni Hong's husband was even more considerate than her and helped her book a flight.
, and also reminded her to carefully prepare gifts.
Not to mention that Ni Hong was still immersed in a complacent mood. On the other end of the phone, Lu Qian accelerated the accelerator after hanging up the phone. Her car happened to pass by the Mercedes-Benz G that Ni Hong was riding in.
Within a few minutes, Lu Qian arrived at the airport and immediately saw the Qiao Liang family waiting on the roadside.
Lu Qian hurriedly drove the car over and stopped close to the roadside. She got out of the car and apologized quickly, "Uncle and aunt, I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting. I was delayed by something, otherwise I would have arrived early."
Lu Qian said this to Qiao Liang's parents. She and Qiao Liang had no reason to be so outspoken, but towards Qiao Liang's parents, Lu Qian was very concerned about the feelings of her future father-in-law and mother-in-law, for fear of neglecting them.
Qiao Liang's mother liked Lu Qian no matter how much she liked her. She said to Lu Qian with a smile on her face, "Xiao Qian, I told Liang Zi not to pick you up at the airport. You can just go about your business. Why did you come here to pick her up?"
It’s a chance.”
Lu Qian smiled and said, "Auntie, coming to pick you up is the most important thing to me, and other things are not important."
Lu Qian's words made even Qiao Liang couldn't help but look at her, thinking that Lu Qian's mouth was as if it had been smeared with honey. Now she knew how to please her parents, but she would not be able to coax her parents in the future.
If you are a good person, you will probably have to give up your family status in the future. From now on, in the eyes of your parents, Lu Qian, the prospective daughter-in-law, will be ranked first, followed by his son.
When Qiao Liang's parents heard Lu Qian's words, they both laughed from ear to ear. The words of their daughter-in-law-to-be are always very popular.
"Uncle and aunt, please hurry up and get in the car. My mother has already booked a hotel. She is waiting for you at the hotel now. Let's go directly to the hotel." Lu Qian said and was about to help Qiao Liang's parents carry their luggage into the car.
"I'll do it." Qiao Liang took the initiative to lift the luggage and put it in the back of the car. They came to the capital for a short stay of two or three days, so they didn't have much luggage, just two sets of clothes and some simple daily necessities.
.
Lu Qian did not argue with Qiao Liang, but helped Qiao Liang's parents open the back door and let them get in the car.
Lu Qian has been really busy these past two days. It’s not that their family has many rules and regulations, but that Liao Gufeng’s current status has made what was originally just a simple engagement party more complicated. And Liao Gufeng is busy with work, and there are some things that Lu Qian can only do.
Qian did it on her father's behalf. Like some important people, in addition to Liao Gufeng making phone calls in person, Lu Qian also had to visit and invite in person. This also showed respect for the other party.
After a few people got in the car, Lu Qian started the car and said, "Uncle and aunt, after lunch, I'll see if you want to take a lunch break. If not, I will accompany you around. There are still interesting places in Beijing."
Quite a few.”
"No need, you are busy with your business, we can just take a walk and see for ourselves." Qiao Liang's father said with a smile.
"Uncle, it's okay. I've mostly finished what I should be busy with. I have no other plans for the afternoon, so I can play with you for a while." Lu Qian smiled and said, "My dad asked me to say sorry to you. He
I really can’t leave, and I can’t come over for lunch together, so let me explain to you.”
"It's okay, it's okay. Your dad's work is important. We are not outsiders, so there is no need to be so outsider." Qiao Liang's father said hurriedly. He knew that Lu Qian's father must be very busy. He has many things to do every day.
They were talking and laughing all the way. After arriving at the hotel in the city, Lu Qian's mother was already waiting at the door of the hotel. When she saw Qiao Liang's family arriving, Lu Qian's mother enthusiastically greeted Qiao Liang's parents and led a few people into the hotel.
She has already booked a room.
Qiao Liang's parents were obviously a little cautious, because the hotel booked by Lu Qian's mother looked very high-end at first sight. Qiao Liang's parents, who had stayed in rural areas all their lives, were not used to such a place and were quite at a loss. After entering the elevator, Qiao Liang's mother said:
He even said to Lu Qian's mother, "My mother-in-law, it's really costing you money. We can just stay wherever we want. We don't need to stay in such a good hotel."
Lu Qian's mother smiled and said, "You already said that we are in-laws, so why are we so open to the outside world?"
Before Lu Qian's mother could say anything, Qiao Liang interrupted, "Mom, Aunt Lu has made arrangements, so we can live in peace."
When Qiao Liang's mother saw that her son had spoken, she said nothing more.
Qiao Liang knew that the hotel arranged by Lu Qian's parents for her family also represented their reputation to a certain extent, so it was impossible for the hotel arrangement to be bad. Furthermore, it was also a sign of respect for her parents. If her parents kept talking about what they wanted,
Changing to an ordinary hotel would be very difficult.
After arriving at the hotel room, we simply settled down. Lu Qian's mother took a few of them to have lunch. The place to eat was in the Chinese restaurant downstairs of the hotel. There was no need to go elsewhere. Lu Qian's mother had already reserved a private room.
Liao Gufeng couldn't come over at noon, and Lu Qian's mother even apologized for drinking on her behalf. She was very considerate and did not neglect Qiao Liang's parents at all.
After lunch, Lu Qian's mother was going to make arrangements to receive people from her parents' family in the afternoon. After explaining it to Qiao Liang's parents, she asked Lu Qian to take Qiao Liang's parents to have some fun and then left first.
Qiao Liang asked her parents if they wanted to take a lunch break. However, Qiao Liang's parents, who came to the capital for the first time, didn't feel tired at all and directly suggested going out for a walk.
In one afternoon, Lu Qian took Qiao Liang's parents to two or three places of interest in the capital. Qiao Liang's parents were as happy as children, saying that they had fulfilled their long-cherished wish and finally came to the capital in this life.
The time in the afternoon was tight, and Qiao Liang's parents had no time to make arrangements for climbing the Great Wall. Lu Qian smiled and said, "Uncle and aunt, we will climb the Great Wall tomorrow, but I have something to do tomorrow morning, so I will find someone to be your tour guide."
"Xiao Qian, you should be busy as you please, don't worry about us." Qiao Liang's mother waved her hands indifferently. She originally told Lu Qian not to accompany them in the afternoon, but Lu Qian ran with them all afternoon.
"Honey, why don't we go on a night tour of the Great Wall? I heard that the Great Wall is very beautiful at night." Qiao Liang's father suddenly said to Qiao Liang's mother.
"Okay." Qiao Liang's mother agreed without thinking.
Lu Qian looked embarrassed when she heard this, because she had already made arrangements for the evening. Her father would be free around eight o'clock, and she wanted to take Qiao Liang to visit an old friend.
Qiao Liang noticed Lu Qian's expression and asked, "Is it inconvenient for you here?"
Lu Qian hesitated for a moment and said, "My dad said he would take you to visit an old friend tonight."
"That's it..." Qiao Liang was stunned for a moment and understood what Lu Qian meant. He couldn't even accompany his parents at night, let alone go on a night tour of the Great Wall with them.
Qiao Liang's father was also a quick-thinking man. He understood it at a glance and immediately said with a smile, "You two young men go do your work and don't worry about us. We two old men will go to climb the Great Wall by ourselves. Without you, we
You can play more freely."
"Uncle, this is not good, you are not familiar with the capital..." Lu Qian started to speak, but before she finished speaking, Qiao Liang's father interrupted with a smile, "It doesn't matter, even though we don't know the big characters
There are only a few, but the basic road signs are still understandable. Besides, it’s possible for two of us to get lost, and it’s not like it was a few decades ago, where we didn’t even have a phone.”
