In order to host the college entrance banquet, the family started preparing the night before.
There were four tables in total. Except for the neighbors in the courtyard, most of the others were friends of Zhang Guifang and Zhao Wenzhuo.
Zhao Wenzhuo and Zhang Guifang attached great importance to this banquet and specially invited a master chef to serve.
At 9 a.m., congratulators began to arrive one after another.
"Uncle Zhao, congratulations! Xiaoyu is the first college student in our college." Boss Feng held a piece of cloth in his hand and congratulated Zhang Guifang with a smile.
"Xiaoyu has brought glory to our hospital this time!"
"..."
The men were saying congratulations outside, while the women rushed to the kitchen to help.
"Guifang, you have a college student in your family, let's enjoy the blessings from now on!"
"Yes, yes, it's so enviable!"
"I've seen it a long time ago. The kids in our courtyard are the most promising ones in Xiaoyu. Let me tell you for sure. They are college students! They are sure to be cadres!"
"I would say you and your wife are better educated."
Ever since she received Zhang Yu's acceptance letter, Zhang Guifang's mouth has not closed.
"No, actually we haven't paid much attention to it. It's all Xiaoyu's own fault. The other children in our courtyard are not bad either. They are all top-notch."
Being so complimented by everyone, Zhang Guifang said modest words, but the corners of her mouth were almost raised to the sky.
"Hey! You are so humble when you say that. My brat, let alone college, can help me get through junior high school. I'm so grateful."
"Who says it's not the case? Even if we don't mention Xiaoyu, your Xiaoping and Xiaojun have already passed the technical secondary school. I don't know how you educate your children. They are all so promising."
As soon as these words came out, the kitchen was quiet for a moment. Everyone looked at each other and looked at Zhang Guifang again with a little more eagerness in their eyes.
"Guifang, please teach us. I don't want that brat in my family to be admitted to college. He just needs to be admitted to high school."
Zhang Guifang: "There is really no good way. You also know that Lao Zhao and I both have jobs and are very busy at ordinary times. Learning is purely a child's conscious decision."
As if she was afraid that everyone would not believe her, Zhang Guifang testified: "If I really had a way, I could make my eldest son stop going to school long ago."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent again.
Think about it, most families have historically relied on their eldest son to support them in old age, so many parents will unconsciously favor their eldest son.
If there is any good way, Zhang Guifang and his wife can leave their eldest son alone.
Everyone sighed, why are their children so obedient and so promising?
The atmosphere in the kitchen was a little dull for a while, but soon there was a new topic of conversation.
"Guifang, your Xiaoyu doesn't have a partner yet, right? I have a niece from my mother's side. She's pretty, hard-working and filial. How about I introduce her to you some other time?"
These words were like poking a hornet's nest. Everyone's eyes lit up and they spoke one after another.
"Guifang, if you want to find a partner for Xiaoyu, what do you think of my daughter? She is about the same age as Xiaoyu, and her appearance is not bad. As for temperament, my daughter has grown up under your nose. You usually
We can also see how we should let the two children go everywhere."
"Aunt Guifang, what do you think of my sister-in-law? Although she is two years older than Xiaoyu, my sister-in-law is a junior high school student and an intellectual. She can talk to Xiaoyu."
"Guifang..."
Everyone was talking to each other, but Zhang Guifang could hardly get a word in.
After a while, seeing that everyone was about to quarrel, Zhang Guifang was a little bit dumbfounded, and loudly refused: "I know everyone's good intentions, but Xiaoyu is still young, I'm afraid I have to wait for two years. Besides, free love is popular now, and young people have nothing to do with it.
It has to be left to the young people to decide."
Hearing this, everyone was a little disappointed.
However, they also knew in their hearts that Zhang Yu had a bright future and was no longer something ordinary girls could aspire to.
The girl who can match the other person is either a college student or her mother's family is capable.
However, everyone did not give up, and those who were flexible decided to target the other children of the Zhao family.
If you think about it carefully, the other children in the Zhao family are also pretty good.
Everyone has a job, and their jobs are very respectable.
Someone's eyes lit up and he said, "Guifang, your boss doesn't have a partner yet. Do you want me to introduce him to a partner?"
"Guifang, what do you think of my eldest son? He is not as good a match as Xiaoping..."
Seeing that everyone's eyes were becoming more and more eager, as if they were swallowing people up, Zhang Guifang subconsciously took a step back.
He explained with some embarrassment: "It depends on the children. I generally don't interfere in children's affairs. I just let them take care of themselves."
Just when Zhang Guifang was in trouble, Octopus pushed in and came to her rescue: "Sister-in-law, my uncle asked me to ask you how the food is being prepared. The guests will be here soon."
Zhang Guifang breathed a sigh of relief and quickly replied: "It will be ready soon, it will be ready soon. You can bring out the cold dishes and wine first."
"OK!"
Zhang Yu was about to pick it up, but a group of sisters-in-law pushed him aside.
When Zhang Yu was stunned, Aunt Zhao said with a smile: "Xiaoyu, go out quickly, we are here to do this, you don't need to interfere. You are the protagonist of today's college entrance banquet, you should be entertaining the guests outside."
"Yes, yes, go out quickly, everyone is waiting for you."
Zhang Yu was pushed out by a group of sisters-in-law.
As soon as he came out of the kitchen, he was pulled to the wine table by Zhao Wenzhuo.
"Let me introduce to you, this is my nephew and the protagonist of today's college entrance banquet." Zhao Wenzhuo smiled and patted Zhang Yu on the shoulder, with a proud look on his face.
"awesome!"
"Show me what college is like?"
"As expected of a college student, he looks very talented..."
Everyone first praised Zhang Yu.
Listening to everyone's compliments, even though Zhang Yu was quite thick-skinned, he still couldn't help but blush a little after being praised so openly.
After praising Zhang Yu, someone couldn't help but ask: "Old Zhao, how did you raise your child?"
Facts have proved that educating children in any era is a huge problem.
Zhao Wenzhuo, who was entertaining guests outside, could not escape Zhang Guifang's situation just now.
Being chased and asked how you educate your children?
However, Zhao Wenzhuo is much thicker-skinned than Zhang Guifang, mainly because the people joking in front of him are his old brothers for many years.
Zhao Wenzhuo said shamelessly and very proudly: "I basically have no control over the learning of these children. It all depends on their own initiative. However, these children are obedient and eager to learn, so they have achieved today's achievements."
His sullen look made the old brother from No. 1 Middle School feel itchy. Director Wu, who was worried about his sons' learning problems, couldn't help but stand up and punch Zhao Wenzhuo.
