"I'll go back to the house and change some clothes first." Yue Chengyu handed the newspaper hat on his head to Fang Tianfeng, went into the house, changed clothes, and came out. Then he took Fang Tianfeng to greet the construction workers, explained some things, and left.
Fang Tianfeng took a closer look at the house. The floor was all lifted, and even the water pipes and the like had to be replaced. The house was in a mess.
Fang Tianfeng was standing at the door, playing with his phone. Occasionally he would go in to take a look and help move some things.
Time passed quickly, and it was almost one o'clock in the afternoon.
The cell phone rang. It was Yue Chengyu who called, saying that he would be back in a few minutes and that he would be invited to have a meal with the decoration workers.
Just after the call ended, another call came, and it turned out to be my second aunt.
"Second aunt."
"Xiao Feng, you didn't come to your cousin's wedding? I'm leaving now, and I didn't see you. His parents are indeed nothing, but Tiande is a very kind kid. He helped me before. Why don't you come?
Great. Is there something important that we can’t do without?”
Fang Tianfeng was a little confused and asked: "Brother Tiande is getting married today? I don't know."
"No one called you? His parents are so unreliable!" The second aunt was a little unhappy.
"No one said anything." Fang Tianfeng was also a little depressed.
"That's not right. I received a call a while ago and told Shishi to go with you. Shishi said that she was free at noon on Sunday and wanted to go with you, so I didn't ask you. Shishi didn't go with you.
explain?"
"No."
"This damn girl!" the second aunt sighed.
Fang Tianfeng remembered that she was in a bad mood when she picked up Su Shishi yesterday. Before going to bed, she said she had done something wrong or something, which was probably referring to this incident. When her mother passed away, her second uncle and aunt did not come, so Su Shishi became very angry.
their home.
Fang Tianfeng also sighed and said: "I'm not busy now, so I'll go right away. Although my second uncle and my second aunt are too much, Brother Tiande saved me when I was a child. He got married, so I have to go."
"Then come quickly. The banquet is almost over. I have already left the hotel. I have something to do at home, so I won't wait for you."
"Okay. I'll go right away. Where is it?"
"Tianyue Hotel, the one on Huanghe Road. During the banquet, I heard that the bride's uncle has some connections with this hotel, and the manager even came to propose a toast."
Fang Tianfeng smiled in his heart, his second aunt was still the same, she would say whatever she heard.
"Oh, then I understand, thank you, second aunt." Fang Tianfeng remembered that the first time he met Shi Weicheng, he was at Tianyue Hotel, and Tianyue's boss Zhang Bowen also asked him to calculate the foundation pit.
"This kid, why are you thanking me? I'm dead."
"Well, goodbye, second aunt."
Fang Tianfeng contacted Su Shishi.
"Su Shishi! Do you know what you did wrong?"
"What's the matter? Shishi doesn't know. Does my brother want to spank Shishi?"
Fang Tianfeng shook his head and said, "Don't do this next time. Brother Tiande is different from his parents."
"So what? When Mom passed away, they didn't even say a word, so I just didn't go! Besides, since you don't know, it means they didn't even call you. What does that mean? They didn't call,
Your brother didn’t know how to inform you? I just can’t stand their family!”
"The matter of getting married is too complicated. I'm afraid my second aunt is doing the contacting with relatives. Brother Tiande doesn't know about it. Do you think I'm willing to attend the wedding? I can't even hide when others get married. I can throw away at most two hundred dollars and leave. But brother Tiande
We had a good relationship with me since I was a child, but when we grew up we stopped contacting each other, so we started to fall out, so I had to go."
"Okay, brother, I was wrong, but you said you would forgive me!"
"You. My classmate is back and I won't tell you anymore. If you do this again next time, I'll spank you!"
"How dare you!" Su Shishi then sent a selfie of herself making faces.
Fang Tianfeng put down his cell phone and said to Yue Chengyu who was going upstairs: "I have something urgent and I have to leave right away. I'll save you a meal." After saying that, he threw the newspaper hat to Yue Chengyu.
"Goodbye Lei Feng!" Yue Chengyu said with a smile.
Fang Tianfeng went down half a floor and heard Yue Chengyu shouting: "Are you going to the class reunion or not? The beautiful girl Qiao Ting is waiting for you to renew your relationship!"
"talk later."
"I think you have a treacherous heart but no courage, and I despise you!"
"Get lost!" Fang Tianfeng laughed and scolded.
When Fang Tianfeng heard the word Qiao Ting, he felt irritable for no reason. He took a taxi downstairs and said something about Tianyue Hotel, then sat in the back seat in a daze.
Once I got out of my daze, I began to recall things from my childhood. My father grew up in a rural area not far from Yunhai City. During the Chinese New Year or summer vacation, he would take Fang Tianfeng back to his hometown to meet his grandparents.
One of the things he remembers most is that he accidentally fell into the fish pond while playing, and was finally rescued by his cousin Fang Tiande. Since then, Fang Tianfeng has been extremely grateful to his cousin.
Arriving at the entrance of Tianyue Hotel, the car stopped. Fang Tianfeng got out of the car immediately and was about to go in. Suddenly he remembered the gift and looked through his wallet. He only had two hundred yuan and dozens of yuan in change left. Two hundred yuan as a gift to others is enough, but giving
The savior was there, but Fang Tianfeng couldn't help him. He asked the person next to him and walked to the nearest bank.
After walking a few steps, he took out his mobile phone and called Zhang Bowen, the owner of Tianyue Hotel.
"Mr. Zhang, is it convenient for us to talk?"
"Convenient, you say."
"My cousin is getting married today, and we happened to have a banquet at your Tianyue Hotel. I thought to myself, since we have such a good relationship, you have to help my cousin get some discounts." Fang Tianfeng said with a smile.
"Is your cousin very close to you?"
"Saved my life back then."
"Ah? It's your benefactor. That's my benefactor, Zhang Bowen. I won't tell you, I'll give you whatever discount you say. Are you in the hotel now? I'll toast you with a drink."
"No, I haven't entered the hotel yet. I was going to the bank to withdraw money. I was in a hurry and didn't prepare any money."
"Master Fang, you are scolding me, Zhang Bowen, for bringing your money into my hotel! Why don't you stop following the money? Haven't they paid the bill yet? You don't have to give it, and the deposit will be sent back! He is in Tianyue
All expenses incurred are your share, but you don’t have to pay a penny.”
Fang Tianfeng was taken aback and said, "Mr. Zhang, you are too polite. This wedding banquet costs at least 20,000 to 30,000 yuan."
"Tianyue does not accept wedding banquets under 40,000 yuan. Master Fang, if you discovered the problem with the foundation pit in advance and asked a good construction team to do it earlier, you could help us recover such a huge loss. If I still charge your savior's money,
Am I, Zhang Bowen, still a human being? I can promise you other things, but this matter is absolutely non-negotiable."
Fang Tianfeng said: "After all, I am the follower, not you. If it is yours, how can I repay the favor? Otherwise, the money for the banquet belongs to me. When you ask me for help next time, I will deduct the money from it."
Zhang Bowen was silent for a while and said helplessly: "Okay, you are too polite. I will go back now. Since I am your benefactor, I have to follow your wishes."
"Well, if the red envelope is not thick enough, I won't let you in!"
"Haha, don't worry."
Fang Tianfeng put away his mobile phone and turned around to walk back. Since the money for the banquet was just for free, there was no need to withdraw the money.
Forty thousand yuan is not a small sum of money to Fang Tianfeng, but to repay the kindness of saving his life, forty thousand yuan is not much.
Back at the hotel, Fang Tianfeng went straight in. The person receiving the gifts looked at Fang Tianfeng in surprise, said nothing, and kept staring. He watched Fang Tianfeng walk to a table and sit down, and got to know the man's relatives and friends before taking it back.
look.
Because it was already one o'clock in the afternoon, many tables were empty, but people from their hometown in the countryside wanted to go back together, so they didn't leave.
The old and middle-aged people in the village drank a lot of wine, and many of them shouted and talked loudly, with their faces red and ears red.
Most of the places chosen by Fang Tianfeng were young people from the Fang family, including children from the third uncle, aunt and second aunt's family, as well as children from the village.
Because of the bad relationship between his mother and his second uncle and second aunt, and because his grandparents had passed away, Fang Tianfeng had not returned to the village for several years and was a bit unfamiliar with his relatives. However, after all, he had met many times when he was a child and recognized each other.
The eldest sister of my aunt's family was holding her child and said enthusiastically: "Xiao Feng, I haven't seen you for several years, how are you?"
"Well, everything is fine. My aunt and uncle are fine too."
"Well, look, they are drinking there."
"Where's my brother-in-law?"
"Just left, he still has something to do."
Fang Tianfeng looked at his aunt's daughter and said with a smile: "What's your name? She's so beautiful."
The eldest sister immediately shook her legs, rocking the child up and down, and then said: "Lily, call me uncle. Be good and call me uncle."
The two-year-old child was afraid of strangers. He glanced at Fang Tianfeng shyly, called uncle in a low voice, and then turned away from Fang Tianfeng, making everyone present laugh.
Fang Tianfeng sighed in his heart, he didn't expect to have a niece. He deliberately walked over to tease her, and then took the opportunity to send a little energy into her body, which was regarded as compensation for his incompetent uncle.
Although the child was ignorant, he still felt particularly comfortable after being touched by this uncle, so he smiled at Fang Tianfeng.
The eldest sister immediately laughed and said: "Lily smiled! Lily smiled!"
The little girl immediately followed her mother and started giggling.
There were children at this table and no one drank. After Fang Tianfeng returned to his seat, he poured a glass of juice.
The third uncle's cousin asked with a smile: "Brother, what are you doing now?"
Fang Tianfeng originally wanted to say that he was in a software company, but he remembered that he had resigned a long time ago. He was about to say that he would look at a villa, but in front of his relatives, he was a little embarrassed to say it, so he had to smile awkwardly and said, "I just resigned and am looking for a job."
The cousin looked at Fang Tianfeng's clothes again, showed a knowing look, and smiled.
Fang Tianfeng asked casually: "What are you doing now?"
The cousin immediately said: "I follow Brother Tiande and deliver goods at Jinxin Aquatic Products Company. At the best time, I can earn 10,000 yuan a month, but it is a bit tiring."
Fang Tianfeng noticed that his cousin couldn't hide his pride and said with a smile: "It's pretty good."
The cousin continued: "When the banquet is over, you can ask Brother Tiande, and maybe he can arrange you to work at Jinxin Aquatic Products Company. The boss of the company is the bride's uncle. He thinks highly of Brother Tiande and will probably let Brother Tiande take care of him in the future.
Breeding department. Our family members will definitely not be wronged if we go there. You see, that is the company’s CEO.”
The cousin turned his head and gestured with his chin, saying, "That's the one talking to Brother Tiande, did you see that?"
Fang Tianfeng took a look and said, "I saw it." A very ordinary middle-aged man.
The cousin said proudly: "Although Mr. Jin is just an ordinary person, he is actually a multi-millionaire. Everyone at the banquet gave him face. Someone just drank too much and wanted to tease his new sister-in-law. Mr. Jin just said a word and that person shut up.
Mouth, and then ran away in despair. This Tianyue Hotel is famous, right? Our company supplies it! Mr. Jin has a very good relationship with Tianyue's boss. If Tianyue's boss hadn't been very busy, he would have definitely come to have a drink today.
"
Fang Tianfeng was a little surprised that Zhang Bowen was not busy. However, Fang Tianfeng felt that although his cousin liked to show off, he was not a bad person and even took the initiative to introduce him to jobs, so he did not reveal that Mr. Jin was his cousin's boss after all.
