Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene became awkward again, Chen Jianguo quickly stepped forward to calm the atmosphere and let everyone control their emotions.
Chen Jianguo knew that Lu Jiang was very profitable now. Although he didn't know what kind of money Lu Jiang was making, he felt that he must be very powerful, so he didn't want to mess with him.
"Okay, okay, let's eat, and forget about my gifts," Chen Jianguo said.
It was meaningless for the group of people to say this, because Lu Jiang ignored them at all, so they had no choice but to sit back in their seats and start eating.
This New Year's Eve dinner was quite sumptuous, and Lu Jiang specially brought some of the more precious ingredients for Gao Miao to prepare and bring over, which added to the luxury of the New Year's Eve dinner.
When everyone saw this, they all took it for granted, thinking that since Lu Jiang was making money now, he should spend more money for his family.
No one cared about who bought these expensive things, no one even mentioned it, just Chen Jianguo deliberately said a few words.
"By the way, these abalone and lobsters are all specially made by Lu Jiang."
After Chen Jianguo said it, no one paid any attention to him.
Chen Jianguo could only look at everyone awkwardly, and then spoke to Lu Jiang cautiously.
"Lu Jiang, you see your factory is doing really well now. The factory is quite busy now, isn't it? Are you still recruiting workers?" Chen Jianguo asked.
When Lu Jiang heard Chen Jianguo ask about the factory, he already felt something was wrong, so he gave a very simple answer.
"Yes, the factory is adding workshops now, so it needs a lot of workers." Lu Jiang said straightforwardly.
When he heard that Lu Jiang needed workers, Chen Jianguo immediately became excited and gave Hu Qin a wink.
Hu Qin quickly and diligently smashed the vegetables for Lu Jiang and put them in his bowl, "Oh, Lu Jiang, you see your factory is doing so well. You are so awesome. How did you think of working in a factory?"
Hu Qin did not dare to make his request directly, but simply chatted.
However, Chen Jianqiang's family was not interested in this topic at all. Instead, they talked about how prosperous their construction site business was, suppressing Hu Qin's questioning voice.
"Brother and sister-in-law, business at our construction site is booming now. Making dozens of dollars a year is not a problem. Money is easy to make in the city now. What future do you think you two have in this rural area?"
Chen Jianqiang felt that he was a successful person, so he started educating others.
Chen Jianguo felt very uncomfortable when he heard these words. He felt that he, the eldest brother, had been silenced by his younger brother, and now he still had to listen to his lectures.
But Hu Qin only felt embarrassed, looking at what kind of life his younger siblings were living, and what kind of life he was living.
Next to them, Chen Yuan and Chen Tao were both envious of the life described by their second uncle.
"Second uncle, then take me to the city. I don't want to study in this town anymore. I want to go to the city." Chen Yuan said directly and noisily.
Chen Jianguo couldn't help but slap his chopsticks on the table, making everyone quiet down.
Then Chen Jianguo cleared his throat and said, "We specially invited Lu Jiang here today because we have something we want to tell Lu Jiang. Your aunt and I want to work in your factory."
Chen Jianguo felt that if he didn't say anything, he would have no chance to say it, so he simply said it.
Next to him, Chen Jianqiang looked at his elder brother a little unhappily and said, "Brother, isn't my work team recruiting people? You can just follow me. Why do you have to go to this guy's factory?"
Next to her, Hu Qin saw Lu Jiang's expression was not good, so she quickly interrupted and said: "I want to work in a factory, because the factory over Lu Jiang is more suitable for female workers, so..."
Hu Qin felt a little embarrassed when he said this, because Hu Qin scolded Lu Jiang in a very unpleasant way before. How could he have the nerve to say this now?
So at this time, everyone's attention turned to Lu Jiang.
Lu Jiangzhong just sat quietly. Seeing that everyone was silent, he slowly said: "I'm afraid it's not very convenient. Our factory doesn't have a job suitable for you two."
What Lu Jiang said was true, and he was not deliberately targeting Hu Qin and Chen Jianguo.
Because both of them are very young, they are not suitable to work in factories with high-intensity work.
Lu Jiang has already understood. Chen Jianguo and Hu Qin definitely don't want to do that kind of high-intensity work. They probably hope that Lu Jiang will find them a stable and leisurely job where they can make money, right?
Naturally, it was impossible for Lu Jiang to spoil them, so Lu Jiang said it very straightforwardly.
Chen Jianguo and Hu Qin were stunned when they heard these words, because they did not expect Lu Jiang to refuse so straightforwardly.
"Lu Jiang, why can't your uncle and I go to work at your place? Don't you have a lot of workers our age there?" Hu Qin asked reluctantly.
Lu Jiang said: "Although we have this type of work, which is good, they must be strictly selected and can only do it if they can adapt to the job."
Lu Jiang didn't want to say too much, because Lu Jiang didn't want them to work in his factory.
It had nothing to do with them originally. Everyone in the village could apply for jobs in the factory. It had been agreed long ago that their family was not allowed to go. This made Lu Jiang's attitude clear.
When she saw Lu Jiang speaking so decisively, Hu Qin had already restrained her temper from exploding, but her heart was full of anger.
Chen Jianguo's face was also very ugly. It was very embarrassing for him to ask a junior for such a thing at his age, but he was still rejected.
So the rest of the meal was not smooth, everyone had different ideas, and the meal tasted like chewing wax.
Lu Jiangda was not in the mood anymore, because the vegetables Hu Qin gave him were still in his bowl and had not been moved.
Lu Jiang stood up directly and said, "I'm going to burn incense for grandpa now, and it's time to go back."
Lu Jiang was able to have a peaceful meal here today without arguing with them, just because he wanted his grandpa to see a scene of family fun, and he didn't want his grandpa to feel the suffocating atmosphere during this Chinese New Year.
However, Lu Jiang's patience had reached its limit at this point, so he didn't want to say anything more to them.
Seeing Lu Jiang say something like that, he stood up and went to burn incense without caring about other people's attitudes, which made Hu Qin tremble with anger.
After the family had a simple meal, Lu Jiang had already finished offering incense and left.
At this time, Hu Qin couldn't stand it anymore, so she took the gift sent by Lu Jiang, chased after Lu Jiang and cursed.
"Lu Jiang, our Chen family raised you, why are you so ungrateful, not to mention the lousy gifts you gave us, and how dare you talk to us two like this!" Hu Qin yelled irrationally,
