National Tide 1980.

Chapter 689 Good mood

In Beijing in early September, it was still very hot.

The so-called "autumn tiger" is this time of year.

Under the bright sun of this day, the temperature was already as high as 10 degrees regardless of the time being less than 30:33.

It won't take long for the sun to burn the backs of people's necks in the street.

Whether it is walking or cycling, it is the same greasy sweat on the forehead.

Even if you take a car, as long as there is no air-conditioning, no matter if it is a bus or a car, you will not be able to feel much better.

To put it bluntly, in such weather, it is best not to go out if you can not go out.

Only being able to rest under the shade is the greatest blessing.

But there are always exceptions to everything.

Couples like Nian Jing and Jiang Hui are different from others today.

In a happy mood, even the flowers, trees, street scenes, and pedestrians that they are used to seeing every day, the colors will appear much brighter.

The traffic lights on the street flicker, they are all so cute, like scenes in a dream.

Even the noisy ringtones of the endless stream of bicycles have become pleasant, just like beautiful music.

Although in order to go to the banquet, they have to pedal bicycles for more than half an hour under the sun.

But their movements of riding bicycles seemed so brisk, with smiles on the corners of their mouths all the time.

Nian Jing would even hold the handle with one hand, and push Jiang Hui's back with the other hand to help her.

"Aren't you tired of pushing me like this all the time?"

"Not tired. What's the matter, I can push you all the way to the Temple of Heaven!"

It can be seen from this that a person's life is not just a heart.

As long as you have a good mood, you can make a big difference in everything in the world.

When they arrived at the Temple of Heaven Park, the couple were in a better mood.

Because they really didn't expect the invitation sent by Ning Weimin to be so effective.

There is no ticket required to enter the park, and there is no cost to park the car.

Even the two gatekeepers at the gate of the park treated them with respect.

Not only are the sirs and ladies yelling, but they are also worried that they will go the wrong way and waste precious time.

He took the initiative to point out the direction of Beishenchu ​​for them.

Who can believe that this is a state-run unit?

Is it a person with an iron job?

Of course, the real VIP treatment is yet to come.

Compared with the messy public area of ​​Tiantan Park where tourists can be seen everywhere, the courtyard of Beishenchu ​​is a paradise isolated from the world.

Just now you were in a noisy place, but when you stepped into the vermilion gate, it was like stepping into another brand new world.

In this world there are no quarrels, no troubles, no vulgar words and manners.

Everyone has a smile on the corner of their mouth, polite and modest, with elegant demeanor.

Whether at the gate or in the courtyard, all the service staff in Chinese uniforms, regardless of their position, no matter what they are doing.

As long as you see customers approaching, you must nod and say hello.

Absolutely in line with the positioning of high-end, atmospheric, and high-end.

What's interesting is that there is a pavilion in the kitchen courtyard where the banquet is held, which corresponds to the sacrifice pavilion in the side yard, called Jingting.

The ground of the pavilion has been paved for the dragon chair covered with brocade satin.

There are two movable hangers next to the dragon chair, on which exquisitely made dragon robes and flag dresses are hung.

It can be used for male and female guests to put on clothes, hats or headdresses to pretend to be emperor's concubines.

At the same time, there is a special person holding a camera to take pictures.

As long as the customer is willing to wait in line and leave their contact address, they will receive a photo in the mail three days later.

There is no need to change the locks. This ingenious and interesting service has indeed attracted many young people who want to try it with great interest and enthusiasm.

Especially if it is free, it makes people flock to it even more, and it seems that the service here is really considerate and thoughtful.

In fact, Nian Jing also wanted to take a photo with Jiang Hui, which was very interesting.

However, he waited in line for 5 minutes, and he didn't see the long line of dozens of people move forward much.

Only then did I realize that changing clothes and taking pictures is really a hassle. It would be nice to be able to take pictures of a group of people in three to four minutes.

He also saw that Jiang Hui had little interest and was not as eager as him.

So he had no choice but to give up and follow Jiang Hui directly to the courtyard.

But I couldn't help but secretly stunned.

Because he discovered that Kodak's color film is still used here, not Fuji, let alone Lucky.

Then this photo will be developed and sent, and the cost will be [-] cents.

Just because the scene is so lively, after this banquet, I am afraid that I will throw hundreds of dollars in vain.

Ning Weimin is really rich and powerful!

It's even worse when you enter the house. There is no refrigerator, but you feel cool immediately at the door.

After walking in and taking a closer look, I realized that there are many brass ice basins in the Ganqing room.

It is the large ice cubes in these basins that emit cold air, allowing the coolness to permeate people's skin through thin clothes, driving away the heat without a trace.

In particular, the "tiger cart" and jasmine are also soaked in the ice water in the brass basin, exuding a fresh and pleasant floral and fruity aroma.

It makes people dissipate their irritability and feel refreshed and comfortable.

As for the decoration, it is even more amazing.

There are ancient paintings on the entire wall, magnificent algae wells, two-person-high vases, and large-sized palace lanterns of various shapes and colors.

Although from the point of view of fine craftsmanship and exquisite conception, this place may not be as exquisitely arranged as the two-story building for individual guests in the Altar Palace outside the North Gate.

But here wins in the majestic, solemn and dignified.

For example, in the first phase of the altar palace, the furnishing utensils are no larger than the height of one person.

And Beishenchu's feeder grapes hang a whole rack in one room.

In particular, "Hundred Flowers Stamping Lanterns" placed in the main hall's shrine, visually brings great shock to people.

The two-meter-high lamp head is a large flower basket carved from mahogany, and the whole flower basket is carved with blooming magnolias, chrysanthemums, plum blossoms, begonias and other flowers.

The lamp is inlaid with a painted glass screen, and six small magnolia lamps are installed on the flower basket.

Part of the lamp post is embossed with traditional patterns, and the lower end is carved with four lions playing hydrangea, and the sharp claws of the lions form the base of the lamp.

After all the lights are on, it is dazzling and exquisite.

Worthy of being made by the apprentice of the famous palace lantern craftsman "Qiu Deng Han", it is the last treasure of the Jingcheng Art Red Lantern Factory.

Now that the capital is full of people looking for it, I am afraid that apart from the banquet hall of Beishenchu, there is no other traditional large lantern with such style and artistic beauty.

Even if you want to spend a lot of money to buy it, no one can do it, because the old artists have left the factory.

That is to say, Ning Weimin completely saved a factory, so the Palace Lantern Factory was willing to give it to him at a price of 2 yuan.

It can be said that this is the best in the world.

Of course, taking into account the space required for the volume of the lantern and the problem of style matching.

I'm afraid this thing is only here, that's the case.

What is a match made in heaven?

This is!
What was even more unexpected was that in front of the "Hundred Flowers Stamping the Lantern", outside the gate of the Shenku, Ning Weimin was actually in a suit, standing here personally to greet the guests.

Everyone he met was warm and courteous.

Although it cannot be said that they are treated equally, they will never neglect.

It has to be said that in fact, everyone has a conscious judgment on their own status.

If Ning Weimin is too polite to people with lower status, it will be fake, which will make people panic.

Conversely, if people with higher status did not receive higher treatment, Ning Weimin would not be happy to find that he was no different from ordinary people.

If you really want to satisfy everyone, you have to see people order dishes, and properly grasp the scale of them.

So from this aspect, Ning Weimin is simply a person who can conjure magic with his mouth.

No matter how ordinary things are, after he talks about them eloquently, they become more vivid.

Often he only needs a few words of greeting, plus an action to express the distance of the relationship.

Or smile, or shake hands, or nod, or bend over, or hug, or pat the shoulder...

He can make any visitor feel like a spring breeze and happily go to his seat.

This is his ability, his skill.

Even for this reason, almost everyone had to talk about Ning Weimin's demeanor after taking their seats.

If someone who doesn't know anyone hears these words, he will probably regard Ning Weimin himself as a celebrity who is loved by the people.

"Oh! It's finally here! Both of you are distinguished guests."

The same is true of Ning Weimin's opening remarks to Nian Jing and Jiang Hui.

As soon as they met, he took the initiative to reach out to shake hands with Nian Jing, and at the same time smiled at Jiang Hui.

"To be honest, I'm very happy that the two of you can come together today. It seems that there is no barrier between us, and we won't be divided, misunderstood, and embarrassed each other because of others. Right?"

Jiang Hui understood the subtext in the words immediately.

She blushed a little embarrassedly, then nodded.

"Yeah, that's what I thought too. Thank you for having us."

"Where is the word? Chief Nian is the one who helped me a lot. In any case, I should thank you two."

However, Nian Jing didn't quite understand. He didn't know that Jiang Hui and Ning Weimin had been in close contact, and a story almost happened.

I just thought that Ning Weimin was implying that his relationship with Jiang Hao and Huo Xin had become tense.

He patted his chest and pretended to be righteous.

Say others are others, they are them.

Whether you are a true friend or not depends on how you deal with each other, whether you hit it off or not.

Afterwards, the chatterbox started, and he kept complimenting Ning Weimin, saying that this banquet hall is definitely a big deal, and it can make other palace restaurants have fun at the same time...

But no matter what, Ning Weimin looked nonchalant, as if nothing had happened.

Really got everything back to normal.

Even Jiang Hui, who came here anxiously, had some doubts, whether he was worried too much, or there was a problem with his memory.

Trying to seduce Ning Weimin at Li Zhong's house could it be that he drank too much that day and had a dream.

Actually, that never happened at all.

How could she be so active at that time?

Frankly speaking, Jiang Hui actually asked her husband to bring her this time, not because she was greedy for the joy of this feast.

The main reason is that he did not expect that Nian Jing would get so close to Ning Weimin without warning.

She was very worried that Ning Weimin had a special purpose in dealing with Nianjing.

He also doesn't think that repairing the toilet is really worth Ning Weimin's gratitude to Nian Jing for this.

And with her current family situation, it is absolutely impossible for her to hope that her marriage will suffer another twists and turns.

So she wanted to use perfunctory as an excuse, why not hurry up and see what Ning Weimin was going to do.

What a person does must be good for himself, right?

As a result, there was no need to discuss this meeting in detail.

Ning Weimin's calm eyes and sincerity in dealing with people made Jiang Huian feel at ease.

I don't know why, but this feeling is very subtle anyway.

She was sure that Ning Weimin had no ill intentions towards her.

And definitely not the kind of person who would use such dirty things as an excuse to do despicable things.

For this reason, she was even a little fortunate that the target of the original design was Ning Weimin, not others.
