Power and Wealth - 1952
villa.
Living room on the first floor.
I just said that a pie fell in the sky, but the sky really fell down a pie, and all the elders and younger generations in the Fang family’s living room were stunned!
“Ouch!”
“Scare me!”
“This…Is this really falling?”
“How did it fall? Where did the pie come from?”
“Hey, why is this pie so familiar? Didn’t I bake it at noon? In the end, there was one piece left after I finished it. Isn’t it kept in the kitchen?”
“Auntie, is it really the one you branded?”
“Yeah, the pleats are the kind I’m used to pinching, and I can’t go wrong.”
The few female relatives of Fang’s family started talking all of a sudden, which was really unexpected.
This is indeed the pie baked by the third wife of the Fang family. When Dong Xuebin came in the old man’s house in the afternoon, he smelled the leek filling pie. He also saw the leftover plate on the table with leek leaves, so When Fang’s second wife said this, Dong Xuebin immediately thought of it.
There are so many people in Fang’s family eating here at noon today. It’s definitely impossible to cook less. That’s not plausible. Although it has always advocated diligence and frugality, it also advocates that leftovers leftovers are left for four hours after being left for four hours. Eating is unhealthy, but in a family as big as the Fang family, it’s rare for the juniors and elders to get together to have a meal with the old man. This is also the national conditions and traditional thinking that cannot be helped. You can’t let everyone eat enough, it must be more. It’s a waste at most to make the extra, but if you don’t eat enough, that’s the most basic question of politeness. Anyway, Dong Xuebin is out for dinner or socializing. It’s never possible to have leftovers on the table. The remaining half are all. It was normal, so Dong Xuebin snapped his fingers and stopped the time and walked quickly to the kitchen to look for it. It really made him find a piece of pie, which was quite large, so he took it and put it in the air. , Here comes a “pie in the sky” scene.
The effect seems to be great!
Look, everyone is shocked!
There are a few juniors who are still pulling their necks and staring at the empty ceiling, but they haven’t seen anything for a long time. I can’t figure it out!
“By the way, I remember!” the little girl who played cards with Dong Xuebin all afternoon called.
“What’s wrong, Xiaomei? What do you think of?” A younger brother looked at him.
The little girl named Xiaomei immediately pointed to Dong Xuebin and said, “Brother Dong will do magic! I saw it on the Internet! Just the previous month! What an investment party!”
Obviously she didn’t know she watched it alone.
Another junior patted his forehead, “I remember too!”
The Xie family and Fang family are dead enemies, and similarly, the mutual concern is greater.
The other elders who didn’t know the situation suddenly realized when they heard it. It turned out to be magic. Although I don’t understand why that pie suddenly appeared here from the kitchen, I don’t understand how Dong Xuebin knew the second wife’s daughter-in-law. If you are in a hurry, you can choke on this. What is the pie in the sky and then came such a hand, but if they can really understand, then what kind of magic is this called?
Dong Xuebin smiled and said diligently: “What kind of magic, haha, this is not a magic. The second aunt said that a pie fell from the sky, but a piece of pie fell from the sky. What is this? This is fate, this It’s God’s arrangement. It’s a happy event. God can’t stand it anymore. I have to help Xiaoling and Xiaoran arrange their marriage. What a fate is that they are destined to be a couple. Can’t run away!” Dong Xuebin held the pie on the plate and shook it in front of everyone. He spoke impassionedly, and he was particularly excited and happy. That feeling was similar to the MLM-marketing group that had been particularly rampant in the past few years. -Weavers are talking.
The second sister-in-law did not say anything.
Everyone ignored him.
It’s fate, you big-father, it’s clearly your kid who cheated!
At this time, Father Fang slowly walked into the living room, looking at Dong Xuebin, he suddenly laughed, and the more he laughed, the louder he said, “Hahahahaha…”
The boss of the Fang family was slightly startled, “Dad.”
Dong Xuebin smiled and said, “Grandpa Fang, do you think this is the case?”
Father Fang smiled and looked at him, “Xie Lao’s grandson-in-law is indeed a well-deserved reputation!”
“You have praised you.” Dong Xuebin said modestly: “Which name is well-known? Where do I have a name, and those who are famous are notorious, haha.”
The second sister-in-law of the Fang family snorted, saying that you still know your own reputation is not good.
Dong Xuebin, the god of plague, many people have heard of the name of the grandson-in-law of the Xie family. They are all in the same level of circles. What can be hidden? There are some notorious things about Dong Xuebin. Everyone has heard of it. Besides, their Fang family also has a woman known as Fang Wenping, who is known as a female bastard. Dong Xuebin and their fifth child are two gangsters and bastards who are equally famous in this field. They are basically the masters of hiding.
Fang Wenping doesn’t say anything. It’s the people of their family. Everyone looks at it every day. The fifth child can even be sent to prison by his own husband. Even the people from the Fang family’s faction say that double rules are double rules. As for the matter, Father Fang sometimes has a headache for this little daughter. Now that he meets Dong Xuebin, who is as notorious as Fang Wenping, the Fang family can be regarded as a profound insight this time.
Seeing is better than hearing!
This is indeed the case!
Then everyone almost understood that Dong Xuebin, a son-in-law of the Xie family and still a junior, why the Xie family would be so relieved to hand over such an important task of raising a marriage to him. First, it was Dong Xuebin’s surname and handling affairs. Secondly, it is Dong Xuebin’s skill and ability to do things. The grandson-in-law of the Xie family… really has two brushes as rumored.
Father Fang waved, “Stop talking, let’s have dinner.”
“Hey, dad, sit here.” The sister-in-law of the Fang family went to pull the chair away.
The second sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law supported the old man, but the old man Fang waved his hand and walked over and sat down in good health and spirit. Father Fang belongs to the oldest type of central-central-leader-director in the system. There are not many people who are still working in the front line at his age. But after all, the old man is the leader of the state-affair-court. If he does not have this The body has long since retired. The political-government-bureau-standing-committee at their level no longer has a strict retirement age, unlike the strict regulations on the retirement age for department-level and ministerial-level cadres. When you reach the age, you must retire before you reach the next level, but you can do it physically. Theoretically, if the old man resigns to another post after the change of term, the old man will work until he has no physical problems. There is nothing in a hundred years old that is not in compliance with the regulations. Of course, no one will do it, for example.
As soon as Father Fang came to the table, the eldest, second and third and the others all sat down one by one, and no one greeted Dong Xuebin, and then the juniors lined up and sat firmly.
At this moment, I can see how thick Dong Xuebin’s face is. Even if no one greets him, he leaned over with a cheerful expression. Seeing that there were not enough chairs, he grabbed a chair from the side and squeezed it out of the two juniors. In the meantime, I squeezed in and sat down, “Oh, the dinner is too rich, it’s just a big appetite, eh, Grandpa Fang, me…Is it right for me to eat here with you?” said After finishing, I stood up pretendingly, “I don’t think of myself as an outsider. Look at you, I will come over after smelling the fragrance, hey, or I won’t eat anymore?” He stood up, but Dong Xuebin didn’t move at all and didn’t leave the range of the chair.
Stop eating?
You are sitting here, numb!
Are you the way you are not going to eat?
The Fang family admired Dong Xuebin’s mouth. It really was a smallpox. If Dong Xuebin commits a crime as soon as he comes, they will be easy to handle it. Boom, what else do they have to say? But now Dong Xuebin is still pretending to be polite with a smile on his face. This makes the Fang family very confused. Hit him and pretend he doesn’t understand. Be polite with him. He still dares to climb up the pole. I have never seen such a person.
Father Fang pressed his hand and said, “Sit down, Xiao Dong, and eat together, but I don’t know if you are used to eating our dishes, ha ha.”
Dong Xuebin sat down again and hurriedly said, “You are too polite. You must be used to eating. If you smell it, it will fragrant. I will try this first.” Said: “It’s delicious, hey, it’s really delicious, no wonder our family is so healthy. It’s strange that we eat so well every day and our body is not good.”
The second sister-in-law was frustrated and whispered: “Who is with your family?”
People in Beijing are more polite and enthusiastic in speaking and doing things, and this aspect is also reflected in the language. For example, when buying green onions, you may directly ask the boss in other places “how do you sell green onions”, but many people in Beijing are still used to asking “how do we sell green onions?” This is a language style influenced by regional culture. Dong Xuebin’s words actually mean this, but many people in the Fang family listen to it so awkwardly that they can’t stand the enthusiasm of Dong Xuebin.
Dong Xuebin heard what she said and smiled: “Second aunt, why isn’t it our family? You see, can you tell me? Xiaoling and Xiaoran are about to get engaged and married, and we will all be one family from now on. It’s human.”
The second sister-in-law is about to turn her face, “Who agreed?”
Dong Xuebin wondered: “Our family agreed. What you just said, you can still represent our whole family, saying that as long as there is a pie in the sky, Xiaoran and Xiaoling will be engaged anytime, right? This is not everyone. Do you look at it, the stuffing really fell off.”
Second sister-in-law: “…”
The Fang family also didn’t speak.
This was really squeezed by the second wife. What she just said was angry, and she was also red-eyed and anxious, so she yelled to Dong Xuebin in a nonchalant manner, who thought this girl really made a pie in the sky. Ah, what do you mean by this, she doesn’t know how to answer. (To be continued.)
