Chapter 42: Cheng's father and son
42. Parents and Sons
The birthday of Mr. Cheng Fu is a big event in Ning Province. Zhang Xuan paid attention to it. The Lin family and the Cheng family seemed to have a good relationship. He saw Lin Qinghan's three aunts talking intimately with the women of the Cheng family.
When Lin Qinghan's aunt saw Zhang Xuan, she wanted to swallow him alive.
From time to time, people come up to talk to Lin Qinghan, mostly talking about some business matters.
Zhang Xuan stood aside, like a wooden stake, and did not talk to others.
Gradually, it was approaching noon, and Zhang Xuan discovered that fewer and fewer people were in the Cheng family manor. He understood that those who were not qualified came to give gifts, wrote a name and left, and those who were truly qualified to serve the table would stay here.
As for the owner of the Cheng family, Mr. Cheng Fu, he has never appeared.
As there are fewer and fewer people, the factions are becoming more and more obvious. When the relationship is good, they stand together in groups. For example, Wang Wei is with Cheng Guang, and Lin Chuan also has his circle of friends. Only Lin Qinghan has no one around him except those who come to discuss business cooperation.
Zhang Xuan looked at the woman beside him. She was so lonely and seemed lonely, but in fact she was a good way to protect herself.
The sun slowly moved along the west side, and the weather gradually became hotter. When it was 11:30 noon, there were already few people in the manor.
"The old man is here!"
I don’t know who shouted first, and everyone standing in the manor looked at the main house located in the center of the manor at this time.
An old man wearing Tang Dynasty costume, gray hair and a stubborn figure walked into the main house with a slow step.
"Everyone, the old man is here, let's go to the banquet." A middle-aged woman from the Cheng family said loudly.
The people who were still chatting all rushed to the main house. Although they didn't run away, they were very fast and wanted to be the first to appear in front of Mr. Cheng and leave a good impression on Mr. Cheng.
"We'll go in too?" Zhang Xuan looked at Lin Qinghan and asked.
"Wait for someone." Lin Qinghan stood there, not seemingly in a hurry at all.
Seeing that everyone in the manor entered the main house, a pink electric car slowly drove over from the door of the manor. Compared with the luxury cars all over the yard, the electric car seemed out of place.
The moment Zhang Xuan saw the driver of this electric car, he felt a sense of intimacy. For nothing else, it was because the other party's outfit was exactly the same as he usually had, with a white vest, beach pants, and flip-flops.
The Saofan electric bike stopped slowly, and the young man riding the bike carefully parked the bike, then waved his hand to greet Lin Qinghan.
"Hello! Is this your man?" The young man spoke very straightforwardly, not as polite as the rest of the people.
Lin Qinghan nodded, "My husband."
"Damn, are you married?" The young man looked surprised and then gave Zhang Xuan a thumbs up, "Brother, you're so awesome, you've got the iceberg president! Do you know that the people chasing her are almost intensifying the company?"
Zhang Xuan smiled. The young man gave him a good feeling. He said whatever he had. He looked at the young man. The other man had long and messy hair. The front curtain covered his eyebrows without any modification. He looked very sloppy. But if you look closely, you will find that this is a very handsome man with fair skin and delicate facial features. Even those popular young men cannot compare with him in terms of appearance.
"Let's go, you're here, it's time for us to go in." Lin Qinghan turned around, walked towards the main house, and her long skirt fluttered. "Cheng Qing, as the eldest grandson of the Cheng family, you don't care about your grandfather every time, it's no wonder you are bullied."
"Tsk!" The young man glanced at his mouth disdainfully, "Whatever they love is, it's not my business. I'm here today, just want to get back what should belong to me. Qinghan, do you really don't regret standing in the same team with me?"
Lin Qinghan didn't say anything, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She walked into the main room. Her yellow back looked like a banished immortal.
The main house has been decorated into a banquet hall. Looking around, there are 100 square meters and four tables. The one sitting on the main seat of the banquet table in the most easternmost direction is Mr. Cheng Fucheng.
Sitting on both sides of Chengfu are his three proud disciples, and the rest of the people on the table are either rich or noble. Being able to attend Chengfu's birthday banquet is itself a symbol of identity.
Zhang Xuan glanced around and found out that the Lin family alone sat alone at a table.
Lin Jianyu, and Lin Singhan's three aunts, their children, all sat at the table.
"Qinghan, Xiao Zhang, come and sit down!" Lin Jianyu waved his hand loudly when he saw Zhang Xuan and the others, without looking restrained at all. However, no one on the other guests on the table dared to speak loudly like Lin Jianyu, which made Zhang Xuan think about the relationship between the Lin family and the Cheng family.
Regarding this Chengfu, five minutes after Zhang Xuan entered the Chengfu's manor, Zhang Xuan received all the news from Chengfu on his mobile phone, and also understood the purpose of Lin Qinghan's visit this time, or the purpose of the Lin family.
The Cheng family and the Lin family are also considered family friends. Although Lin Zhengnan cannot compare with Chengfu in terms of identity and status, there are not many differences between Chengfu in terms of connections.
In the Cheng family, there is a rule that the Cheng family is not allowed to touch politics and business, but every five years, Cheng Fu will select the best juniors in his family, study under his own disciples, and do business, politics, and military, and choose as they choose.
This is the best opportunity and the only opportunity for the younger generation of the Cheng family. Once it can be selected by the Cheng box, it represents your future.
The method of selecting people in Chengfu is also very interesting, just looking at gift giving. Chengfu once said that in this world, some things are not valuable, but only because the right holder likes them, they become treasured. Chengfu once explicitly stated that at his birthday party, whoever can give the most precious birthday gift can be selected by him. No matter whether you borrowed or bought this birthday gift, as long as it was taken by legal means, he would not ask the source.
This rule has been around for many years. Every time, Chengfu just looks at these precious birthday gifts and will not accept them. His words are, "If you can take them out, it proves your social means and interpersonal relationships."
Today's birthday party is another five years, and the younger generations of the Cheng family are ready to go.
Zhang Xuan sat at the table with the Lin family calmly, ignored the hostile eyes of Lin Qinghan and second aunts, picked up chopsticks, and picked up a pot sticker for Lin Qinghan, "I didn't eat in the morning, eat something quickly."
