I burn big seats in the countryside

Chapter 27

Qi Taobo has been thinking about one thing in his heart, and after a while, he will check his phone for any reply messages.

It's already 10:30 in the morning, and there is no news yet.

Qi Taobo turned on the phone again, and looked at the chat records between Duan Hui and his driver.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Qi Taobo sent a good morning emoji package, and then asked:
'Dude, today is my son's first birthday banquet, I went to see Boss Duan the day before yesterday, does he have any plans for today? '

Qi Taobo asked this because he wanted to know whether Duan Hui would come. He wanted to call to inform him, but such a reminder would make people disgusted.

In particular, Boss Duan was a very strange person, he was not sure of Boss Duan's temperament, so Qi Taobo didn't dare to act recklessly.

I can only find Boss Duan's driver, and ask the driver if Boss Duan will come, he should know something.

After waiting for nearly an hour, Boss Duan's driver replied:
'No news, just tell me to rest today. '

Seeing this reply, Qi Taobo sighed, he was disappointed, he did not expect such a reply.

It seems that Boss Duan won't come, and Boss Duan can't drive. Since the driver is asked to rest today, it is specified that he won't come. Qi Taobo said politely after seeing the message:

'Brother, if you are not busy, come and have fun. '

This is just a polite remark, Boss Duan and the driver replied:
"Brother, if Boss Duan uses the car, it's not good for me to leave. I wish your son a happy birthday." '

After the last few words, Qi Taobo completely gave up and was a little disappointed, but he still smiled and continued to greet other guests warmly.

The fellow guests who came, as soon as they entered the yard, smelled the smell of meat wafting from the kitchen, and they all said:
"Where did Boss Qi hire such a good cook? The taste is really delicious."

Qi Taobo smiled and said:
"This is the chef I have worked so hard to hire. It is very difficult."

Because Qi Taobo and Boss Duan were talking about finding a cook with great difficulty, and these people who came here were also business people in their circle, so they had to speak the same words, otherwise it would be embarrassing to talk differently later.

At this time, another cooperating manufacturer asked:

"I heard that you have been following up on Boss Duan's list this year, how is it?"

After Qi Taobo chatted with Boss Duan’s driver, he felt that he would definitely not come. Now when he was still disappointed because of this incident, he couldn’t think of which pots the cooperating manufacturers really didn’t open and which pots, so he asked about the cooperation. Qi Taobo was a little embarrassed, but he still smiled and said:
"Oh, it didn't work, it's not that we are still working hard."

Hearing this, the colleagues next to him also knew that Qi Taobo was cooperating with Boss Duan, but how could Qi Taobo be successful? Just taking advantage of this moment, he wanted to see his reality. There was no play, so he quickly asked:

"Then your child is one year old today, and you didn't invite him?"

In this way, the manufacturer just asked which pot should not be opened and which pot should be lifted. Now this question is to sprinkle salt on the wound, which is very heartbreaking.

For a face-saving person like Qi Taobo, what should I say, Boss Duan's reputation in the circle is among the top, and his status is quite high.

If you want to directly say that Boss Duan won't come, it's too embarrassing, and you look like a rookie. If you say it, it's slapping yourself in the face. There are more people here today.

Qi Taobo still smiled slightly and said:

"Oh, please pass."

Then when I saw my daughter-in-law approaching, she was like a savior, so I was afraid that this group of people would continue to ask questions, so I hurriedly shouted:
"Li Jing, come here and meet some big brothers."

Seeing Qi Taobo change the subject, the people who asked the question were also secretly happy in their hearts. He changed the subject in such a hurry, so don't think about it, he must have not been invited, how could Boss Duan come, so he can feel at ease , he did not climb the high branch of Boss Duan.

Hearing Qi Taobo's shout, Li Jing smiled, with red lips and white teeth, a very gentle smile, and responded:

"Oh, here we come."

Following Qi Taobo's call, several people looked at Li Jing who was coming. She was of medium build, she was wearing high heels, she was very graceful, her long hair was naturally rolled up, her face was soft, and she was wearing a long skirt, making her complexion very fair , the makeup is also very decent, which makes people's eyes bright. Several people laughed and said in unison:
"Haha, Boss Qi is so lucky to have such a beautiful wife."

Qi Taobo saw that today's daughter-in-law is indeed beautiful, but in front of the big brothers and their daughter-in-law, he smiled embarrassedly and said:
"It's okay, not as beautiful as my sister-in-laws."

Qi Taobo took the daughters-in-law who came over and introduced them one by one, and also introduced the wives and children of the big brother
On Duan Hui's side, when he got up in the morning, he planned to relearn editing lessons with his son in the morning, then go swimming in the afternoon, and then come back to learn Go.

But my son who is in high school doesn't listen to his arrangements, and insists on arranging his own time. It's the weekend and he just wants to relax.

But Duan Hui believes that learning to swim is Fang Song, and learning Go is also relaxing. Duan Hui and his wife quarreled every time they came and went.

But let the son manage his own time on weekends, and the parents have no right to interfere.

But Duan Hui believes that after high school, other interests besides studies should be followed up, so that after university, you can choose a major you like and major in it, so that you can reduce trial and error.

The two had different ideas, and it didn't make sense, so they just stopped talking, and they were about to quarrel, and Duan Hui went out.

The driver took Duan Hui around the city twice, and the upset Duan Hui said:

"You said Xiao Miao, where should we go?"

At this time, the driver thought of the birthday banquet that Qi Taobo reminded him in the morning, and gave him the address. Qi Taobo usually gave him a lot of benefits, just to help him at critical times.

It's not just the opportunity to come today, I have eaten so many meals with Qi Taobo, so it's time to repay this buddy.

When I was cleaning up the office trash, I also saw the invitation card in the trash can, so I just wanted to help.

The driver said:

"I cleaned up your office and saw an invitation card, which said it was held in Xintai Village today."

After hearing the driver's words, Duan Hui remembered that Qi Taobo invited him to his son's banquet. Duan Hui didn't read the content of the invitation at all, and just threw it away. Now that the driver reminded him, he suddenly remembered.

That kid and Duan Hui said that the chef tastes better than the five-star hotel, hehe, it's really nonsense.

It's ridiculous to compare cats and dogs with star hotels. Duan Hui has eaten countless delicacies. He has eaten many private dishes from famous chefs. He is very picky about food.

Anyway, I quarreled with my wife, and I don't really want to go home now, so I just go for a walk and relax.

Duan Hui said to the driver:
"Well, there is no place to go anyway, so let's go there and look around. By the way, can you find a place?"

When the driver heard Boss Duan's answer, he said:
"I can navigate a phone map."

"Well, let's go."

In the courtyard of Qi Taobo's house, almost all the people came.The 3 tables in front are still empty, only a few colleagues are sitting sporadically.

More than half of the guests who came have been seated one after another.

On the kitchen side, there are many children around, no matter what the parents call, they can't go there.

The children around here, the aunt who helped the cook grabbed a handful of cashew nuts and gave them to the children, all eating cashew nuts happily.

There was a child standing there, staring at the dishes in Yunxi's pot, with his mouth open, smelling the aroma of beef tenderloin fried in the pot, the saliva could not help but trickle out from his small mouth.

Seeing the drooling child, the aunt who helped the cook hurriedly said:

"Yeah, little ancestor, stand up and don't drip your saliva into it."

The aunt standing beside said with a smile:

"Hahahaha, it's a good thing I didn't drip my saliva into it, otherwise I'll let the kid eat that dish by himself."

This is the child's grandma. After speaking, she took her little grandson to the front to find a seat.

The aunt who helped the cook saw that her grandson and several children were still surrounding the kitchen, so she said:

"Qiangqiang, take the children and sit in the front. Don't stand by the table where the dishes are laid out, drip your saliva into it, and wait to be beaten."

Hearing the preaching from the family, they all continued to stand where they were, and the child's rebellious heart was very strange. If you don't let me do something, I just want to try it.

The child also smelled the fragrance, and said unconvinced:

"We want to have a taste of the dishes in my sister's pot. I don't believe grandma won't steal the food with such a delicious taste."

As soon as the words came out, the bright eyes of the children looked at the aunt who was helping the cook, and seeing the questioning eyes of the children, they also smiled and said:
"Haha, you little devils, you saw me stealing it somewhere."

The aunt who was questioned smiled and covered herself up. She probably just ate a piece of sheep bone and was seen. The soft and rotten sheep bone looked so soft that she wanted to eat it, and the bone fell off as soon as she sucked it. I couldn’t hold it back. When I was stacking vegetables, I took one and ate it.

The embarrassing aunt who asked, then defended and said with a smile:
"I was trying to see if it was cooked, not stealing it."

The children continued to argue with her and said:

"Well, then, you can also bring us some dishes from your sister's pot, and we will taste them for you to see if they are cooked."
