The man realized that he might have said the wrong thing, so he immediately took back his somewhat frivolous tone and said politely to Xiao Xiaofang:
"Sister-in-law, your son is really promising. Really, I remember when I met Gu Chen a few years ago, he had not graduated yet, but now he is the deputy director of Furong Branch."
After a pause, the man tried to calm down his shock, and then said slowly:
"Unexpectedly, in this short period of time, your son Gu Chen has already become a university leader?"
"It's all my fault that I don't recognize Taishan and am laughing in front of you."
After the words fell, before Xiao Xiaofang could speak, the man turned around and looked at Gu Chen, and quickly apologized to Gu Chen:
"Gu Chen, as a family member, you have given us a lot of respect. Please take more care of us in the future."
"Uncle, you are ridiculous." Although Gu Chen knew that the man was from this village, he was also the adopted son of Gu Jiahui from his hometown.
I also know that his reputation among his family is not very good, and he is the type who is careless.
But because I grew up in the city all year round, and my grandparents passed away early, I rarely go back to my hometown.
It's just that Xiaojia has little prejudice against the woman, the adopted son of a local.
"Sister-in-law, if there was no Gu Chen in their family, they would definitely be proud of their ancestors."
To say that he is a dragon or a phoenix among men, he may not have the ability to fly to the sky and escape from the earth.
Seeing that Du Hanglei also had a bitter look on his face at this moment, Gu Jianghe immediately understood.
Hearing this, an elder saw that the woman seemed to be questioning Gu Chen's ability, but he didn't look forward to it and said quickly:
In addition, Gu Chen's family is not an artistic family. Their ancestors are engaged in the cultural and art industry, so they are also insulted by the locals.
"So does your family."
"That position is just a false position. Although Gu Chen is a deputy director, he still often handles cases on the front line."
In the eyes of women, young people like Gu Chen, who are well-groomed and have outstanding abilities, are the most favored by leaders.
"Tell him honestly, that kid Gu Chen didn't achieve what he has achieved today because of me step by step."
When the group of people returned to the living room, Gu Jianghe had not finished frying the vegetables and was taking down the table and setting down the bowls and chopsticks.
Originally, Du Hang went back to his hometown a lot, and what he knew about Gu Chen was mostly through interactions between Gu Jianghe and his family when he was young.
But since everyone came and brought a bottle of bad wine, it was possible to agree.
Xiaojia sat down in an awkward atmosphere.
"Uh." Feeling that he was looking for trouble, Gu Jiahui was not embarrassed and looked at Gu Baichuan slowly.
"Ah? Haha, everywhere, there are a lot of wrinkles, and my hair is white." Du Hanglei didn't seem a little embarrassed after listening to the woman's compliment.
"Uncle, just call you Du Hang." Seeing that the woman was being polite to him, he also spoke with such compliments.
After the words fell, the man approached Gu Chen and asked loudly: "Gu Chen, does anyone have a partner? His partner's family background is complicated, right?"
"What's this? You guys are going to start dinner right away. You've made some home-cooked dishes. There are also people cooking outside your home. How about we go to your place for a party?"
"It's better for his brother to keep his mouth shut." Gu Baichuan said loudly with a helpless look on his face.
Glancing in the direction of Du Hang, the old man added, "That kid Gu Chen has been stupid since he was a kid."
The movement that has had the deepest impact is Jiangnan City. Although it is only a few hours away from the ancient town, many of the ancient buildings in Jiangnan City are slightly similar in style and characteristics to the ancient town.
After all, he had just called him Gu Chen, but now before he knew his identity, he immediately changed his name to Gu Ju, which seemed a bit off-putting.
That's why the old man never tried to embarrass me in front of everyone when I was driving my sports car home, but he also quickly resolved the embarrassment by saying:
Of course, women also mentioned a lot of specific details about their businesses, which further deepened Xiaojia's belief in women's careers in the industry.
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Seeing Gu Baichuan's refusal, the woman was so polite that she actually opened the door of the sports car, took out a bottle of bad wine from the outside, and walked back directly with Xiaojia.
The woman was also very sensible. When she saw Du Hang getting up to pour wine for the elders, the woman who deliberately sat next to Gu Chen immediately pushed Du Hang back to his seat and said with a smile:
But the woman didn't care about that. She asked Gu Chen to sit down and stood up on her own initiative. First, she had to pour wine for Du Hang.
After finishing speaking, the woman quickly glanced at Du Hang and said quickly: "Director Gu, please sit down quickly."
After thinking about it for a while, I could only reluctantly go back to the kitchen, get a set of bowls, chopsticks and cups, smiled at the woman and said:
So the small family gathered again and prepared to go back to their respective homes.
After all, there have been many geniuses in the ancient town, and Xiaojia has long been accustomed to seeing those kind of people being the best among them.
When Gu Chen saw this, he also smiled slightly: "It's just like what he imagined.
After all, I was still vague about what a woman was. It must have been my younger brother Gu Jiahui who wanted to invite her over for dinner, but she actually agreed.
"Uncle, is that bad?" Faced with the woman's coldness, Gu Chen seemed a bit uncomfortable.
But now it seems that my idea seems to be too sophisticated, and instead it is ridiculed by outsiders in the village.
What's annoying is that the so-called negative teaching material back then turned out to be prosperous in the past two years and even bought a sports car.
"Hey, we are all our own people, you know." Even though Du Hang said that, the woman still thought.
"How can he understand how powerful Gu Chen is when he's such a young person here?"
One is from a prominent family, and the other is a demon king who knows his origins, so Xiaojia naturally prefers Gu Chen.
The woman who understood the situation immediately understood Gu Chen's position, and then came to Gu Jianghe, poured wine for Gu Jianghe, and said with a smile: "Brother, we are here to drink, you have to drink some, right?"
"Gu Chen still needs to communicate with colleagues outside the office on the phone. After all, he is a leader. Although he is in his hometown, there is no work that requires phone communication, so he can drink."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "As expected of the director's mother, her words are not pleasing to the ears." At that time, someone in the crowd knew who it was and said it, and Xiaojia immediately agreed.
In Xiaojia's mind, she naturally thinks that the woman is engaged in some business that is popular.
Originally I wanted to make some insinuations and find out why Du Hang was able to achieve the position of deputy director of the branch in a short period of time. Did his other half's parents play a key role?
"You guys are having a family dinner, so you went ahead and cooked some big dishes. It's quite sumptuous."
"Yes, your son is a bad boy after drinking." Seeing this, Gu Jianghe also agreed.
"Uh, yes, you don't have that plan." Faced with the old man's complaints, the woman obviously didn't know why she came to Taiwan.
Du Hanglei could also see how disgusted the old man was by the woman back then.
"By the way, you still have cooking at home, you have to go back first."
The man smiled slightly and said in a complimentary manner: "Your leaders should be very fond of you, otherwise you would be the deputy director of the branch at such a young age."
"I heard that before joining the company, he handled many small and important cases, and went abroad for missions a few times. Even the leaders outside the capital admired the kid."
"Excuse me? You have heard of my craftsmanship. It is quite remarkable. It is really your honor to have a taste of my craftsmanship today."
Growing up, he was not the devil in the eyes of the family. He was used as a negative teaching material by many people to educate their children. His image of being tough and bad was completely opposite to that of Gu Chen.
As for Gu Chen's excellence, Xiaojia would be too impressed.
Coupled with what some of the family members saw and heard in Jiangnan City, the family members had no idea about Gu Chen's work.
"Yes, yes, what you always said is that you are short-sighted." Listening to the old man's words, the woman instantly felt less ashamed.
Although Gu Chen had long been accustomed to it, having dinner together in his hometown still didn't feel free and easy.
"He said that it is abnormal for such an outstanding child to be a small leader? That just shows that the current leaders of Jiangnan City are following a certain pattern in hiring people, and only those who are capable are chosen."
Gu Baichuan secretly said bad things about him, Gu Jiahui, was he passing the blame on to his sister-in-law?
That situation is extremely rare. As a person who often works hard in society, he naturally has no understanding of the so-called background.
Gu Jianghe immediately glanced at his younger brother Gu Jiahui.
…
"Oh, you're welcome, your family just made bad food."
So the woman also wanted to know what the family background of Gu Chen's other half was?
And the leaders don’t have any sons, so maybe they all hope to recruit a slow-tempered son-in-law like Gu Chen.
"His adoptive father is so thoughtful. Now that his adoptive father is young, if he is truly filial, he should think less about his adoptive father's old age."
…
That led to some elders outside the village not wanting to come up and wanted to come out and say a few words.
Originally, it was because the woman was driving a sports car that she deliberately made the roar of the sports car known to everyone.
The moment Du Hanglei spoke, Xiaojia immediately understood what Gu Jiahui meant.
But in a very short period of time, he could reach the position of deputy director of the branch. Gu Chen must be in a low position because of his other half's parents, otherwise such a situation would be almost possible.
"It's like you, even your parents know who you are. If this old man of yours adopted you from the orphanage, you might still be alone now.
Glancing at the red sports car parked in the parking lot inside the ancestral hall, the old man added: "If you don't have money to buy a sports car, you might as well renovate your own building for your adoptive father."
Touching his long beard, the old man added: "You must always judge that kid Gu Chen with the way he sees people and things."
On the other hand, Gu Chen is the deputy director of the Furong Branch of the Jiangnan City Public Security Bureau and a leader in the police force.
Although many people may be envious of a woman's current achievements on the surface, they actually despise her on the inside.
Seeing that the situation was too embarrassing, Gu Baichuan quickly came over to smooth things over and said:
Therefore, the culture of many surrounding cities is not inextricably linked to the culture of the ancient town.
Seeing this, Gu Chen quickly sealed the mouth of the cup with his palm and said in agreement: "Uncle, you have to drive later, so you can drink."
"Director, why don't you go back to your hometown for a drink? If you have something to do, why don't you stay one night before leaving?" The woman seemed willing to give up and offered to pour Gu Chen a drink.
Seeing the woman putting down the bad wine on the table, Gu Jianghe used the skill of placing the dishes and chopsticks to get close to Gu Baichuan's ear and asked loudly: "Why am I here?"
As a result, the elderly man outside the village was surprised that he was trying to save face for the woman, making the scene extremely embarrassing.
Putting those two people together, there is no comparison at all.
Although that ancient town is now a town-level city, its administrative unit back then was the government office, where the government office was located and managed several surrounding counties.
"Zhengbao, the bad boy is getting together with his brother and sister-in-law. There are a few bottles of bad wine outside your car, Zhengbao, and he is going to give them to your dad. If you don't like them, how about you bring a bottle over and let us all get together?
"
"He should be more filial to his adoptive father." Gu Baichuan was still speaking, and the old man with a beard just interrupted and said:
That's why even though women don't have money now, it's hard for them to get a reputation.
In the woman's view, Du Hang was able to be quickly promoted from a freshly graduated police academy student to deputy director of the branch in an extremely short period of time.
"Does he know? How much effort has his father, Xiao Xiaofang, put in for him? From the time he was a child, he has always been very knowledgeable and has made your foreign friends crazy."
After all, no matter how weak a young person is, how weak can he be? Women naturally have no own standards of judgment.
That's why Xiaojia came with the mentality of Si Gua to enjoy the silence.
But after all, they are all from the same village, so they agreed reluctantly, so they could only reluctantly agree: "Haha, this... what is this? Of course it's Dongshi. Anyway, Dongshi is missing a pair of chopsticks. If so, how about coming over to eat together?"
In Xiaojia's opinion, Gu Chen's excellence was due to the good genes inherited from his ancestors, so it was natural for Gu Chen to be the deputy director of the branch. In Xiaojia's opinion, it was natural.
Rather, it is said that the adopted son of Xiao Xiaofang, an honest man, is an academically talented young man who often causes trouble in the local area.
"So after all, Gu Chen is not a public servant of the people. He serves the people and his position is low. This only shows that I can serve the people well."
Of course, part of the reason is that since she was a child, she thought that by driving a sports car home, she would be able to gain favor from others.
As for the elders in my hometown, most of them are just acquaintances and familiar faces, but I can't name them specifically, so I always call them uncle when I meet them.
But at that time, he was still waiting for Gu Chen to speak. Du Hanglei, who was sitting on the other side, immediately came over to smooth things over and said:
The people there are relatively simple and advocating culture, so there are also many talented people.
Seeing that Du Hanglei had no intention of stepping on the stairs for him, the woman naturally couldn't resist his kindness, and she quickly chatted and laughed with Gu Baichuan:
"Gu bureau, let you do things like pouring wine, and he will fail."
"Brother, it's been a long time since I've seen you. You're still so young." When she saw Gu Jianghe, the woman said politely.
Gu Chen was able to obtain such a position today because of the merits of the other half of his parents.
Seeing the woman retreating with Xiaojia, my heart skipped a beat and I was not at a loss.
Originally, Gu Jiahui tried to be polite and told Xiaojia that he was going back for dinner. However, unexpectedly, the woman shamelessly said jokingly:
When he heard the woman address Gu Chen's position in this way, Gu Jianghe finally understood that she wanted to come over to exchange feelings before knowing that his son was the deputy director of Furong Branch in Jiangnan City.
He even pretended to be a gangster in front of Gu Chen.
