Liu Feixu knew very well that as long as she said a word, Luo Lei would definitely stay and give her parents face.
Even if he only asks for it, Luo Lei will do his best to keep Liu Hongkai's career smooth.
But she didn't plan to do this. Her parents' snobbery made her feel very disappointed. Even if she didn't jump into the hole she dug herself, she would have to bury it herself.
Liu Feixu knew that Luo Lei had paid enough for her. She could not get the benefits on her own, but she had to ask her family to get the benefits as well.
Because so many sisters in the family have this view. As soon as this example started, Luo Lei had to stop doing anything all day long. Just these seven aunts and eight aunts and relatives, twenty-five hours a day were not enough for him.
Busy.
Sisters can all do this, Liu Feixu told herself in her heart, only she can do it, and she must do it better!
The two stood up and left the restaurant. Liu Hongkai stretched out his hand, but still couldn't say a word. He could only watch his daughter holding Luo Lei's arm and walking straight to the door.
Opening the door, standing outside was Secretary Lin of the province, two deputy secretaries, and the deputy governor, all of whom had higher official positions than Liu Hongkai.
"Oh, all the leaders are here, I'm so sorry! I am Luo Lei. I have been neglected here, so I have to trouble you all!" Luo Lei made a grateful expression on his face. In fact, among these people in front of him, he is the only one
Don't know anyone.
"You're welcome, Major General Luo. It's an honor for us that you can come to our Provincial Party Committee compound! As parents and officials, we are disappointed to meet you from afar. I hope General Luo won't be angry!" Secretary Lin has been in the job for more than thirty years.
As an official, he naturally thought of Luo Lei's unhappy experience at the Liu family, and quickly said: "Why don't you come to Qijia for dinner? Although it is a simple meal, my wife and I will definitely entertain you warmly!"
The governor hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Why don't you go to my house! I haven't started dinner there yet, and I don't have to go to work in the afternoon, so I can have two drinks with General Luo. I'll ask my lover to cook some more
It is a specialty dish. It is rare for General Luo to come to our Provincial Party Committee compound. As the governor of the province, it is necessary for me to join in the friendship of the landlord!"
Not to be outdone, several other leaders invited Luo Lei to their homes for dinner.
In the room, Liu Hongkai said with a wry smile: "You see, everyone treats Xiao Lei as a distinguished guest and rushes to invite him home! Only our family treats others as bugs and sneers at them, and you and I continue to ridicule him!"
"Old man, how about we talk to our daughter and let her say good things to us in front of Xiao Lei!" Mrs. Liu was already at the end of her rope.
"I'm worried what if this incident causes a rift between Xiao Lei and Xiao Fei?" This is what Liu Hongkai is most worried about. Originally, they looked down on Luo Lei, but now it seems that they are the ones who
The old Liu family has climbed a high branch, it’s only right that this family looks down on his daughter!
Luo Lei couldn't help but take something like this seriously! He was the youngest major general in the Republic, and he had a backer, so many girls were staring at him.
"No way, Xiao Fei has always been on Xiao Lei's side!" Mrs. Liu also started to call Xiao Lei shamelessly. Thinking about how she had been calling him young man before, her face became hot and said: "Xiao Lei to Xiao Fei
You shouldn’t have any objections, right?”
"A woman's opinion!" Liu Hongkai remembered that she had the bad idea and insisted on calling Mr. Chen, and he got angry and said: "I don't understand. You said that you have nothing to do and you have to learn what others do.
What's the business? You said you didn't make much money, but you learned how to be a businessman. Doesn't the family named Chen have some bad money? As for you talking about it all day long! Now it's better, the surname
Chen's family was killed miserably, and such a good son-in-law was angry and ran away. Are you satisfied?"
Mrs. Liu looked aggrieved, thinking that I was not the only one who made her son-in-law angry. You also said unpleasant things!
But she didn't dare to refute anything. After all, she was the one who called Chen Yufeng over.
In the end, Luo Lei decided to have dinner at the municipal party secretary's house. As for the food, why not just fry two of their specialty dishes from each house and send them to the secretary's house so that everyone can eat together!
In fact, what Luo Lei hated most was eating with these officials. The reason why he did this was just to show the Liu family and his wife.
Especially Liu Hongkai, I believe that tomorrow the whole provincial party committee will spread the news that he, surnamed Liu, has neglected his guests and is too high-minded to even look down on the youngest major general in the Republic!
After having enough wine and food, Luo Lei really couldn't bear the endless flattery of those people, so he found an excuse and left Secretary Lin's house with Liu Feixu.
"Xiao Lei, what are you going to do about my parents?" She asked cautiously while holding Luo Lei's arm.
"Haha, don't worry, I won't hold a grudge!" Luo Lei said with a smile: "No matter what, they are my father-in-law and mother-in-law, and I won't let you, Feifei, be caught in the middle and it's hard to be a good person! But what?
, I am indeed quite disappointed with them. Your father should just stay in the position of director of the Propaganda Department. Stop dreaming about promotion. Just focus on his lack of understanding of people. Being a big official is not necessarily a good thing!
"
Liu Feixu nodded and said: "This is indeed Dad's weakness. In this aspect, he is far behind even our Municipal Party Committee Secretary Pang Shengchang! I heard that Secretary Pang saw that you are not an ordinary person a year ago, right?"
"Haha, Uncle Pang's judgment of people is indeed very accurate!" Luo Lei said with a smile: "He can successfully become the secretary of the municipal committee, and I have contributed a lot! Look, in five years at most, he will be
He will be transferred to the central government, and after five years he will be sent out to become a feudal official, a gold-plated secretary of the provincial party committee, etc., and then he will be returned to the central government and entrusted with important positions!"
This method of promotion is not uncommon in China. Many leaders of the central government have been promoted in this way. Especially in the following years, their positions were changed almost every year until they reached the top.
Liu Feixu couldn't help but look back at her home and thought to herself, Dad, a great opportunity is in front of you, but you don't know how to seize it. It's too late to say anything now, so you can take care of yourself in the future!
"Then where are we going now? Back to Huadu?" she asked again.
Luo Lei shook his head and said, "Let's find a hotel! After all, we are here to meet our parents, not to make enemies. Anyway, your parents nod and agree. Let's get a room to rest and wait for them to call us!"
Liu Feixu nodded, and the two of them walked straight out of the municipal party committee compound without driving the military vehicle parked in front of Liu's house.
In the evening, at Liu Hongkai's urging, Mrs. Liu shamelessly dialed her daughter's phone number.
The two of them stared at each other fearfully at home all afternoon, expecting their daughter to call her, but Liu Feixu didn't do so.
"Daughter, is Xiaolei still angry?" This was Mrs. Liu's first sentence.
As expected, her mother was becoming more and more snobbish. In the past, she would never have said such a thing. Liu Feixu answered the question unreasonably: "Let's have a meal together!"
"Huh?" Mrs. Liu didn't react for a moment, and she was happy and said, "Why don't you come over to eat at home? It's more casual at home..."
"Forget it, being casual at home is a bit harsh! If you don't want the atmosphere to be awkward, you'd better find a hotel to avoid everyone sitting in the restaurant and thinking about what happened at noon!" Liu Feixu said.
"Yes, yes, Xiaofei, you are so thoughtful. Look at my brain, it's getting more and more confused! Then go to the XX Hotel, your father and I will be there soon!" Mrs. Liu happily hung up the phone, knowing that she could
Sitting together to eat means that there is room for relaxation.
Liu Hongkai asked hurriedly: "What did my daughter say? Seeing that you are happy, should we go to the hotel for dinner as a family?"
They had become a family so quickly, and now Liu Hongkai was afraid that Luo Lei would use what happened at noon as an excuse to cut off contact with his precious daughter.
"Yes, let's change clothes quickly! Don't let Xiao Lei wait for us, that would be too rude!" Mrs. Liu said with a smile.
"Okay, let's hide it in the wine belt in the basement for a while. I'll have a few more drinks with Xiao Lei. He has a good drinking capacity!" Liu Hong rushed to the bedroom in a gust of wind.
XX Hotel, the most luxurious private room, the table in front of the couple was filled with sumptuous dishes.
There was a humble expression on the two people's faces. Compared with that at noon, it can be described as a world of difference.
The waiter opened the door, and Luo Lei walked in with his arms around Liu Feixu's waist.
The couple stood up together, and Liu Hongkai greeted him enthusiastically: "Xiao Lei and Xiao Fei, you are here, sit down quickly! I'm just waiting for you two. I don't know what kind of food Xiao Lei likes. I
Just let them serve all the signature dishes!”
What a harmonious meal this would be if there wasn't that incident at noon!
Luo Lei smiled and said: "Uncle and aunt, if we can finish all the dishes here, isn't it a waste of money?"
"How can you say it's a waste? It's your first time here, Xiao Lei, so you should be treated warmly!" Liu Hongkai didn't mention anything about what happened at noon, and emphasized "the first time". This was a disguised way of telling Luo Lei.
Okay.
How could Luo Lei not know Liu Hongkai's purpose? He smiled and said, "Uncle, you are so polite! In fact, I have always been uneasy, fearing that you and my aunt would not approve of my continued relationship with Feifei!"
Liu Hongkai quickly waved his hand and said sternly: "How is that possible! Xiao Lei, you are so good, our family Xiao Fei is so lucky to find a boyfriend like you. We must treat Xiao Fei better in the future, otherwise
As my father-in-law, I won’t agree!”
"Yes, even my mother-in-law wouldn't agree!" Mrs. Liu said with a smile.
Although this was a bit cheeky, it was still a way to continue showing goodwill.
Even if the incident at noon has passed, if you don’t mention it and I don’t mention it, no one will mention it. There is no need to make it so clear who is right and who is wrong.
Liu Feixu's pretty face turned red, what the hell, you guys changed your attitude too fast, didn't you? I saw Luo Lei looking bitter and resentful a few hours ago, but now he's already his father-in-law and mother-in-law!
