Chapter 264: A congratulatory gift and an apology gift(2/2)
Before the banquet started, Chao Shengguo, the boss of the Chao family, gave a speech of thanks. Mr. Chao said a few words of thanks to the guests, and he went first as a courtesy, and the banquet officially started.
The three couples from the Chao family took their seats, sitting on the left hand side of the old man, arranged from oldest to youngest. Because they recognized a new little golden grandson, there were eleven people in total, which was also an overcrowded table.
The Chao family's dinner was a five-star VIP meal, with nine bowls of main dishes and a variety of side dishes, which was extremely rich.
The significance of a banquet lies in the meaning of representation. Most of the people attending the banquet are drunkards who are not interested in drinking, but in making friends with powerful people, developing partners, and expanding connections. Therefore, it is easy to ignore the meal.
The Chao Family Birthday Banquet has rich dishes and is a favorite among foodies with a big heart and a fat heart. People who are in foodie mode don’t care about external affairs, while those who are preoccupied will not feel anything special because they don’t focus on eating.
When the banquet started, Zhao Zongze was still in a daze, mechanically picking up the chopsticks to serve the wine glass. Because his mind was absent, he accidentally touched the plate while picking up the food and dropped one of his chopsticks.
There was a ding sound, and the chopsticks were placed across the plate.
The people at the table all looked at the young man brought by the Wang family, and then at Mr. Wang and Mrs. Wang, with a bit of ridicule in their eyes. How could the Wang family's girl be allowed to bring such an unworthy young man to the banquet?
Being disrespectful at a banquet is a very shameful thing. When everyone looked at her, Mrs. Wang's whole face burned. She wanted to warn her prospective grandson-in-law with her eyes, but because her granddaughter Wang Yuxuan was sitting next to her, she couldn't see through the person.
arrive.
After losing his chopsticks, Zhao Zongze came out of his daze. Suddenly he realized that he had made a mistake that he shouldn't have made. His body and mind were surrounded by shame. His face was as stiff as his fingers, and he hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry for disturbing everyone.
I always feel as if I have met the Chao family’s little righteous grandson somewhere, and I keep thinking about it, so I am not concentrating, so I am rude."
"It's okay." The four people at the same table expressed their tolerance lightly, and the mockery in their eyes decreased instead of increasing. They lost their composure and used the little girl as an excuse. This is not a matter of cultivation, but a matter of character.
With such keen observation skills, I noticed that the four guests at the same table had contemptuous eyes, and I felt more and more uncomfortable. I also complained about my parents. Don't my parents know what kind of family the Chao family is? They had to bring their granddaughter and granddaughter's boyfriend with them.
Disgrace your own family.
Zhao Zongze explained his gaffe, pretended to be calm, picked up the chopsticks, wiped them clean with a napkin, picked up the dishes gracefully, and started eating.
When her family showed up to congratulate her, Wang Yuxuan was also absent-minded and didn't pay much attention to her boyfriend. She didn't pay attention to him until she heard Zhao Zongze speak. Seeing that he had settled things on his own, she didn't say anything caring.
The prospective grandson-in-law settled the matter on his own, and Mrs. Wang's expression softened, and she no longer bothered to think about how to accumulate connections for the prospective grandson-in-law.
Le Jiaqi sat among the rich people. She was accepted by the rich people because she was brought by Mr. Wu, so the people at the table occasionally talked to her. If it weren't for the person who brought her to the banquet, everyone would usually talk to her.
When she was a female secretary temporarily hired by a rich man to replace his wife.
The nephews and daughters-in-law of Chao Xingyundai's natal family accompanied Mrs. He and others, and the atmosphere was harmonious. Grandma He was always accompanied at the table and was never left alone. Yan Xing personally took care of his great-grandma, helping with the dishes, pouring red wine, etc.
Liu Xiangyang and He Mingtao sat at the same table and ate very happily. After eating for a while, they carefully whispered to He Xiaoba: "He Xiaoba, let me tell you, the shameless stepmother of Xiao Xingxing's father's family is
My stepson is here too."
"Hey, really?" He Xiaoer and He Xiaosan also heard it and asked quietly.
"Of course it's true, do you want to clean it up?"
"Don't make bad ideas, this is Mr. Chao's birthday party." He Xiaoer was afraid that Brother Liu would cause trouble, so he warned him first.
"I didn't say tonight. That broken shoe and the oil bottle are getting married on New Year's Day. My family has received an invitation, and it will be that day before we start to fix it. I don't dare to mess with the little beauty. If I dare to cause trouble, she will be beaten to death.
mine."
"Let's talk to Xiao Longbao about that." He Xiaoba's eyes rolled. If Xiao Longbao agreed, they wouldn't mind giving him a big "gift".
"Uh-huh."
Liu Xiangyang, He Xiaoer and He Xiaosan also agreed and put the matter down.
About ten minutes after the banquet started, Uncle Hu and the waiters at the door also went to the side hall to eat, and the people who had eaten were waiting in the hall.
The banquet is indispensable for toasting. Mr. Chao took his children and grandchildren to toast and thank the guests.
The order of honor is first and then is the lowest. The first table is Mrs. He. Everyone stands up to receive the toast from the host.
There are dozens of tables, and the host can't possibly drink a full cup, so he can just take a sip if he wants to.
Chao Yubo and Chao Yufu protected their precious girl in the middle and went to toast with the elders. Little classmate Le Xiao was not underage to drink, so she held a cup to show off. Even if she didn't go, no one would say anything wrong about her. She is a little doctor with wonderful rejuvenation skills. Who can
Are you sure you won't ask her to see a doctor in the future?
Therefore, when the Chao family came to toast, everyone was more polite than the host, and was particularly warm and friendly to the little girl.
