How can ordinary people compare with Bai Ju's ability to mingle in the officialdom and flatter people from both sides?
No matter how unhappy he was with the Liu family's neglect, he was still respectful and polite to the old lady.
Supporting Mrs. Liu, he bent slightly and said politely:
"Old lady, shall we go back to the compound together?"
The old lady shook her head and said:
"As I get older, I prefer peace and quiet. When the meal is about to start later, I'll just go over and show up. According to my opinion, there shouldn't be a birthday banquet. I have to trouble you to come all the way here...
"
The old lady is also a good person, her speech is impeccable and her level is very high.
Bai Ju immediately said:
"Then let me help you go back to the ancestral hall..."
Xiao Li immediately stepped forward. He and Bai Ju helped Old Mrs. Liu walk towards the ancestral hall.
I followed them, looking around from time to time.
This is my second time coming to the ancestral hall. As soon as I entered the door, I noticed that it was different from before.
At the door, there are two kneeling stone sculptures.
One is Liu Baiyu, and the other one with his head lowered is Xiaoduo.
This old lady is so cruel, even Xiaoduo, she can treat her own son like this.
Even after death, he still has to kneel in the ancestral hall.
There is no security at the entrance of the ancestral hall, only a few servants standing there.
Bai Ju may have also seen Liu Baiyu. When he saw the stone sculpture, he couldn't help but be startled.
The old lady did not avoid people at all. She hit the statues of Liu Baiyu and Xiao Duo with a walking stick and said:
"This is the most embarrassing thing about our Liu family. We couldn't find a woman, but we chose someone else's wife. Another wild girl with no rules was born, and the ancestral temple was set on fire. When I think of this, my heart feels blocked.
, I can’t wait to tear this uneducated bastard to pieces!”
As she said this, she spit on Xiaoduo's statue.
What kind of person is Bai Ju? He knew very well that he should not ask more questions about this kind of thing, so he immediately said:
"Even if it's a big thing, it's not as important as your old lady's health. I don't want these unhappy people. The Liu family is getting better and better now. You can always enjoy peace and happiness..."
Only then did the old lady's gloomy mood change, and she said to Bai Ju:
"Director Bai, please go to the courtyard quickly. You don't need to accompany me, the old lady. I will burn incense for the ancestors of the Liu family in a while, and then go to the Buddhist hall to chant sutras. I don't know what's going on lately. I always feel uneasy.
rather……"
I sneered secretly in my heart, feeling uneasy.
After saying that, the old lady said to a follower beside her:
"You also go and tell the people outside that today's guests are all distinguished guests. Be polite when talking to them. I think they are used to being domineering in the village and have no rules when talking to anyone..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he greeted Bai Ju again, and a few of us left the ancestral hall.
As soon as he went out, the pleasant look on Bai Ju's face disappeared and was replaced by a cold and frosty look.
It seems that he is still very upset about the security action just now.
At this moment, the Liu Family Courtyard is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations.
At the entrance, it was even more lively.
The people of the Liu family were busy welcoming and sending guests off.
As soon as you enter the door, you will see that the spacious courtyard is already full of guests.
There are some large banquets placed on the lawn, which are prepared for the followers of leaders like Secretary Li.
The seats of the leaders are in the main courtyard.
Although it is outdoors, everything from the dining table to the tableware is extremely luxurious.
The banquet officially started at five o'clock in the afternoon.
After eating for a while, I saw Liu Yunxiu walking to the doorstep holding a wine glass.
He raised his wine glass high, smiled at everyone and said:
"Thank you to all the leaders and friends for taking time out of your busy schedule to come and attend my mother's birthday banquet. An isolated village at the foot of a mountain, a place where hospitality is not good, I hope you will forgive me. I would like to toast you all here first. In a moment, I
Mother will also come to toast you in person..."
After drinking one cup, everyone below also raised their cups to signal.
Secretary Li took a sip and then asked me in a low voice:
"Brother Niu, do you know why these people are willing to come to such a banquet?"
"Because the Liu family is rich and powerful?"
Secretary Li did not deny it and explained softly:
"That's just one. The second is that on this occasion, there are many big guys from the province. Being able to establish relationships with these big guys is the most important thing. Otherwise, who would come so far to drink from him?
?”
I looked at the seats of the leaders, and sure enough, they were mingling and toasting each other.
Just as he was talking, there was a loud noise from the door.
Everyone thought it was Mrs. Liu who had arrived, so they all turned their heads.
But when I looked around, I saw five or six people walking in at the gate.
The person walking in the front was wearing an exquisite high-end windbreaker, with his hands in his pockets.
Wearing brand-name high-heeled shoes, I walked in slowly.
The moment I saw this person, I felt very happy.
Aaron Cen!
This morning, I told her some of my thoughts.
I thought she wouldn't come, but she came anyway.
Upon seeing Cen Yalun, Liu Yunxiu immediately blinked quickly.
He seemed a little unbelievable that Cen Yalun would actually appear here.
