Chapter 43 Classmates Banquet
"Hello Aunt Tian!"
When I saw Liu Xiaoting's mother, I immediately greeted her politely.
Liu Xiaoting's mother is surnamed Tian. I didn't ask Liu Xiaoting about her specific name. I met Aunt Tian when I was in junior high school. She was dressed very ordinary but she showed a beautiful woman everywhere.
As the saying goes, a dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and the mouse’s son can dig holes.
Because Aunt Tian is a beauty, Liu Xiaoting inherited her mantle and even carried forward it. She has been a beauty since she was a child.
Moreover, both of them have good female character and are very friendly in dealing with people. Therefore, in junior high school, I always want to see Aunt Tian. From her, I can feel the maternal love in junior high school that I have never had before.
"Are you waiting for Xiaoting?" Aunt Tian was wearing work clothes. She was a civil servant in a certain unit. When she saw me standing downstairs, she knew that today was a gathering for our junior high school classmates. She said to me: "Xiaoting's child cannot drink, please help my aunt watch it."
I hurriedly said that I knew about my aunt and added that if someone wanted to toast Liu Xiaoting's wine, I would help her stop the wine.
Aunt Tian said that Xiao Chu was still sensible, and said that she was still working overtime at the unit today and came back temporarily to get something.
Aunt Tian pointed upstairs and asked me if I could go upstairs?
I said no, auntie, I just waited for Liu Xiaoting downstairs.
Aunt Tian said goodbye and hurried upstairs.
After a while, Liu Xiaoting went downstairs. She didn't dress up deliberately today. She was wearing similar clothes as usual, without a skirt. A pair of light blue jeans and light-colored casual clothes gave people a feeling of spirituality.
"You met my mother, what did you say?"
Liu Xiaoting walked towards the Garden Hotel, and I hurriedly followed along, and she asked casually.
I smiled and said, "What else can I say? I'll say hello to my mother-in-law, who praised me for being very handsome today."
"Get out of here, who is your mother-in-law? That's my mother." Liu Xiaoting pouted.
I laughed and said yes, that's your mother and my mother-in-law.
Liu Xiaoting stretched out her feet to kick me, but I avoided it with a smile. She said that when the classmates met later, I was not allowed to joke like this.
I said I know, which means that when we are together, I can say that you are my woman, right?
roll!
Liu Xiaoting punched me. This time I didn't dodge. She was fucked with a smile, but she didn't hit her hard. She smiled and looked at me with a smile, saying that I didn't expect you to clean up and look like a fool.
I stuck out my tongue and said I was handsome, and my mother-in-law said I was handsome.
In fact, Aunt Tian never said that, I just wanted to tease Liu Xiaoting.
We were joking all the way and walked towards the Garden Hotel. On the way, Zhang Dewu called me and asked us to wait for him.
After waiting on the roadside for a while, Zhang Dewu came with a girl from our junior high school. After meeting, hello to each other. The four of us smiled and continued moving forward.
Along the way, I gradually encountered more junior high school classmates. When we arrived at the Garden Hotel, there were already more than 20 people.
What makes me particularly warm is that none of these students who have studied in different places looked down on me. Instead, many of them took the initiative to chat with me, which was something I had never seen in junior high school.
In junior high school, I only have three good friends, one is Zhang Dewu, the other is Bi Fada, and Liu Xiaoting.
But today, I felt the friendship of other students, and I felt that Liu Xiaoting said that I was self-esteem was unnecessary. In fact, in real life, there were not as many philosophical characters written in online novels.
At least, at the age of seventeen or eighteen, it is a critical period for our progress in studying and progressing. The comparison mentality is not as serious as that of the people in society, and there is no scene where anyone will compete with each other.
"Welcome to students!"
As soon as we arrived at the door of the banquet hall of the Garden Hotel, a tall figure walked out from the door. He was wearing a rigorous suit and a layered hairstyle. He looked real and tender when he smiled.
This person is the convener of this alumni association and the study/committee of our junior high school class - Yang Qiang.
Yang Qiang is the youngest class in our junior high school class. He is more than one year younger than me. He has just turned fifteen this year. He went to elementary school at the age of five, but his academic performance is very excellent. He was the first in our class in junior high school. From the first year of junior high school to graduation, no one has surpassed him.
In our opinion, Yang Qiang is a top student, and his family is rich and not showing off. He seems very low-key in junior high school. But everyone knows that his family is rich, so many people actually have little relationship with Yang Qiang.
Take Zhang Dewu as an example. He is from Yang Qiang, who is from different worlds, so in junior high school, I didn’t talk much to Yang Qiang, and Zhang Dewu also had few contacts with him.
"Yang Qiang, you are still so young!"
Among the classmates, a girl said with a smile, which made Yang Qiang's face turn slightly red. He smiled and scratched his hair, saying that there was nothing he could do, I am a young man.
Suddenly, the students burst into laughter. It’s true that Yang Qiang is the kind of young man who is more popular among girls nowadays, so tender that he seems to be able to squeeze out water.
"Squad leader, long time no see."
Yang Qiang laughed with everyone, then walked to Liu Xiaoting, stretched out his delicate hand to hold it with Liu Xiaoting.
Liu Xiaoting said yes, I have never seen her after graduation. She stood with Yang Qiang, with a very perfect style, one as beautiful as a fairy, and the other being handsome and shy.
Yang Qiang looked at me again, he nodded and greeted me, and I nodded and smiled.
"Everyone walks to the banquet hall."
Yang Qiang arranged and asked us to go in first, and he would wait for other classmates who had not arrived yet at the door.
Under the leadership of the waiter, we came to the banquet hall of the class reunion. When we walked in, we saw five large round tables, decorated at the banquet site, and there was a rostrum. There was also a banner on the stage, with a letter to welcome the reunion of our junior high school class.
The on-site environment is very good. It seems that Yang Qiang has put his thoughts into it. I, Liu Xiaoting, Zhang Dewu and others, sat in front of the round table farthest from the rostrum.
Zhang Dewu picked up the melon seeds on the table and ate them. Looking at some exquisite cold dishes placed on the table, he said that it seemed that the table today would probably cost thousands.
Another boy at the same table said that he had come to this banquet hall with the adults, and it is said that the minimum fee for the venue was 10,000 yuan.
What a rich man!
All of us all exclaimed in our hearts. The minimum fee for the consignment fee is 10,000 yuan, and today's consumption is definitely higher.
After a while, Bi Fada came in wearing that decent set of clothes. He bought this set of clothes from Leng Yuanhang for 3,000 yuan. When he wore them, it really looked very suitable. The most important thing was to sit at our table, which was obviously more than the boys we were here.
I asked Bi Fada if he had paid back the money to Leng Yuanhang. Bi Fada said that after receiving my transfer that day, he immediately paid it back. Moreover, Bi Fada gave me 300 yuan in recent days, saying that he would wait for the remaining money for a while.
After more than ten minutes, junior high school classmates arrived one after another. There were originally 55 people in our class, but this time there were 5 people who could not come to study in other places, and there were exactly 50 people.
So, ten people at a table were not divided into men and women. They just got together with relatively good relationships, and everyone talked and laughed, but they didn't feel separated at all.
Liu Xiaoting sat on my left and whispered to me, saying, "You see, the classmates are very harmonious. If you ask you to come, you are not willing."
I laughed dryly and was about to say a few words when Yang Qiang, who was in a suit, walked to the rostrum. Everyone knew that he had something to say, and the whole venue suddenly became quiet.
Yang Qiang looked around the five tables of classmates. He said a few simple words, saying that we welcomed the students and said that we were lucky to know each other before, but now we all have a drink to commemorate the friendship and youth in junior high school.
Everyone raised their glasses, whether it was drinking or drinking, the men and women laughed and said that they wished friendship lasted forever.
Afterwards, Yang Qiang ordered the waiter to serve hot dishes. He did not sit at our table, but sat on the side of the sports committee member. He had the best relationship with the sports committee member in junior high school.
Before formally eating and drinking, Yang Qiang said that everyone must be polite, eat and drink well, and drink well in the afternoon, they will drink tea in the teahouse of the Garden Hotel. If they don’t drink tea, they can go to the bar of the hotel to drink. Anyway, he will treat him.
There was another noise from everyone. The sports committee member shouted "Long live Yang Qiang", and Zhang Dewuze laughed and said that Yang Qiang was sleeping, which attracted the students to laugh together.
The dining atmosphere was super good. We were talking and laughing at the table. Zhang Dewu raised his glass to drink beer and toasted everyone he met. He drank the two girls so much that their faces were red.
Originally, Zhang Dewu wanted to let Liu Xiaoting drink, but I promised Aunt Tian to help Liu Xiaoting block the wine. I didn't care whether Liu Xiaoting was willing or not, so I said I would help the squad leader drink.
Zhang Dewu swears me, and a few boys swear, and Bi Fada sat aside and smiled without saying a word.
"You kid, what does it have to do with the squad leader? Why should you help the squad leader block the wine?" Zhang Dewu asked me deliberately. His voice was quite loud, and the other students present also looked at us curiously.
I was a little embarrassed and thought to myself that Brother Wu, you are asking questions knowingly. Do you mean to embarrass me? Good boy, it will definitely not be free to come to the bar next time you drink.
"I'm with him and my classmates!"
Liu Xiaoting spoke for me, and she said roughly: "All of them here are my good classmates. Today I am unwell and can't drink. Zhang Dewu, you know, women always have a few days a month. What, you look like you don't believe it, so you go to the bathroom with me to check it out."
Zhang Dewu's face turned red in an instant. He didn't expect Liu Xiaoting to joke like this. The classmates were stunned first, and then laughed together. Yang Qiang was calling Brother Wu there, and if he had the affair, he would follow the class monitor to go to the women's bathroom to take a look.
Ha ha……
Everyone was even more happy. Zhang Dewu said in a vague way that you are so awesome. He drank a glass of wine to the end and never dared to drink with Liu Xiaoting again.
I thought to myself, Brother Wu, you should stop making trouble now, so I gave Liu Xiaoting a thumbs up.
The dining atmosphere became more and more lively, and the students began to toast everywhere, and Liu Xiaoting also took the drinks to the next table.
Zhang Dewu really wanted to drink Yang Qiang in love. He was walking around with a beer bottle, and soon he drank shakingly. I gave Bi Fada a wink and asked him to accompany Zhang Dewu and protect Brother Wu at the same time.
I didn't go there, but wanted to look at Liu Xiaoting. If she had drunk today, I would break the appointment with Aunt Tian.
Bang!
Zhang Dewu was not standing firmly and sat on the chair and fell to the ground. Bi Fada wanted to support him but he didn't have enough strength. I was about to go over and help him, but Zhang Dewu vomited alcohol and said nothing was wrong. He got up again and continued to drink for others.
Bi Fada gave me a helpless expression, and I shook my head. It seemed that Zhang Dewu would be drunk today.
Just as he was thinking, a laughing voice came from outside the door of the banquet hall: "Damn, you guys, you guys, don't wait for me to come, just start drinking!"
Hearing this laughter, the originally noisy banquet hall suddenly became silent, so quiet that it could be heard.
Chapter completed!
