Chapter 678 Another Annual Gathering

In the north, especially before the new millennium, the urbanization and modernization process did not develop so fast.So the taste of the year is relatively strong, and this is what we can experience when we were young.Take Anxi in this period as an example, basically the fifteenth year is not over, so it is not considered as the end of the year.Although the company has already started to work on the tenth day of the new year, this is just a buffer period for taking leave and getting into the state.There is basically no work to do at this stage, and each production factory is only doing pre-production maintenance and cleaning, and other preparations. The real production and work will not officially start until after the [-]th.

Seeing that the New Year is almost over, Jiang Chen still has one very important thing to do, that is, they have a dinner together once a year.This dinner is not only a platform for the brothers to communicate and celebrate each other, but also an important time for them to discuss the direction of work for the new year.There were many times last year, and Jiang Chen was always busy during the Chinese New Year, so this dinner party has never been held.So I waited until the year was almost over before starting late.Fatty's house was chosen as the place for this year's gathering. On the one hand, it was because his home was relatively spacious, and on the other hand, he was just married, so both he and Nicole wanted to invite everyone to dinner.But they overlooked one point, that is, neither of them knows how to cook, the fat man doesn't even know how to cook, and Nicole, a foreign daughter-in-law, hasn't learned much about French cuisine, so she can only make steak now. Foie gras mushroom soup or something.These are said to be a candlelight dinner for two people should be quite romantic, but a gathering of many people is a bit powerless.But fortunately, neither of these two people forgot about Jiang Chen, so even though it was said that these two people were the ones to treat guests, it was Jiang Chen who cooked the meal.

So, very early on, Jiang Chen and Wei Lingling came to Fatty's house to start preparations.Wei Lingling just came back not long ago. Although the whole family wanted to spend a few more days in the oasis, they had to be busy with work, so they had to come back.She also knew about this party, so she was very active and brought some local products she brought back from the oasis.

Jiang Chen originally thought that the husband and wife were the first to come, but he didn't expect that after arriving, everyone else came.There are Ma Jun and his wife, and two bachelors, Dongzi and Glasses.The glasses are still young, so there is no need to rush, but Dongzi, everyone, including Jiang Chen and Wei Lingling, did not miss introductions to him.But this kid didn't like any of them, so he hasn't succeeded in any of them until now.You must know that among the people they introduce, there are also beautiful, knowledgeable, insightful, and family backgrounds.But this stupid boy just couldn't find a suitable one, which caused his parents and Jiang Chen a lot of headaches.

Seeing Jiang Chen and his wife coming, everyone who was basking in the sun and chatting got up to say hello to Jiang Chen.Seeing this, Jiang Chen smiled and replied, "I said, why did you all come so early? I thought the two of us came early."

"Hehe, I have nothing to do at home, so I came early." Ma Jun said with a smile.

Jiang Chen handed the things in his hands to the fat man and said with a smile, "Your sister-in-law just came back from Oasis and brought you some cured beef and some other things. Bring them to the kitchen. I'll show you a little later."

"Haha, that's great." The fat man took the things in Jiang Chen's hands, and walked towards the kitchen in a hurry.Before Nicole could make a move, Ma Jun's daughter-in-law Fang Hui offered Jiang Chen and Wei Lingling a cup of tea.Everyone knows that it is inconvenient for Nicole to be pregnant now, so she didn't let her do more.Although the pregnancy of foreign girls is very different from ours, what they pay attention to is still to exercise more, and they don't care about us so much, but who let this come to us? In a few days, the fat man's mother and a large group The aunt and daughter-in-law are doing as the Romans do.

Because it's still early, there's no rush to cook now.So Wei Lingling and the others hid in the kitchen, picked and washed vegetables, and chatted in whispers, while Jiang Chen and the others sat in a glass room transformed from a balcony exposed to the outside of the fat man's house, smoking and drinking. Tea comes.

Dongzi filled Jiang Chen with water and said with a smile, "Brother Chen, tell us quickly how the chief met you."

Hearing this, the fat man was also interested and said: "Yes, Brother Chen, tell me quickly."

Hehe, Jiang Chen smiled slightly and said, "Actually, it's nothing. I've told you everything I need to say. He's just a kind old man. There's nothing special about him."

"What, let's talk again, let's talk, we haven't met the chief yet." Dongzi said dissatisfied.

"Whatever you talk about, it's over if you don't see it yourself." Jiang Chen said angrily.

"Look with your own eyes, you mean we have a chance to meet the chief?" Dongzi's eyes lit up and the three people on the side also listened.No matter what kind of thing it is, being interviewed by the leader is definitely an enviable thing, so several people showed great enthusiasm.

"As long as you work hard, you will definitely see it, and so will you." Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"You mean let us become advanced workers and then go to Beijing?" Ma Jun asked thoughtfully.

Jiang Chen shook his head and said, "Don't bother."

Everyone thought about it, and suddenly the glasses were surprised: "You mean that the old man is coming to our place for inspection."

Hearing what the glasses said, everyone became excited, and then looked at Jiang Chen expectantly.Seeing everyone's expressions, Jiang Chen nodded and said, "That's right, the chief said that we should work hard, and he will come to visit us at an appropriate time."

"Really!" Everyone suddenly boiled.In this age of advocating glory and advocating heroes, this is definitely exciting news.Now that it is finally confirmed by Jiang Chen, one can imagine how excited everyone will be at the moment.Before, they envied Jiang Chen, and were even proud of being Jiang Chen's brother.Now it's finally their turn, how can I make my mother unhappy.Even Ma Jun, who is usually more mature and calm, laughed from ear to ear, causing the three of them in the kitchen to roll their eyes frequently.

After calming down for a while, the fat man took the lead and said, "Brother Chen, when is the right time, it won't be so far away."

Seeing everyone's worried eyes, Jiang Chen shook his head and said, "Why, the chief must have made arrangements. It's just that you know that the chief is busy with work, so it's not just that you can come when you come. It depends on when you can come. Look at the arrangements. However, if our results can be more brilliant, then the resistance to the arrival of the head will be less, and the day will be closer."

"Don't worry, Brother Chen, we will definitely achieve better results this year and wait for his arrival." Dongzi clenched his fists and said confidently.

And the other people were also extremely excited. Although the glasses also showed a smile on the surface, Chong could see infinite entanglement and sadness in their eyes.
