Mixed in the last days as a salted fish

Chapter 377 Li Dajuan Urges Marriage

Yang Dengbang heard the words, and joked with a smile: "It's probably useless to let An An take over. After all, there is a gap in age between their father and son, but Guoji and Guoxuan have a little possibility."

"Grandpa, I can't do it. I'm not interested in being an official." Zhang Guoxuan waved his hands repeatedly.

Zhang Guoji followed with a wry smile and said, "Grandpa, you think too highly of both of us. You must know that since the establishment of the Federation, there has never been a consul in his 30s."

"Guo Ji, grandpa asks you, do you want to go into politics?"

Yang Dengbang asked seriously.

Zhang Guoji nodded.

"Then work hard, relying on the foundation laid by your father and your family's financial support, you still have a chance to sit in that position.

At that time, you and your father will be the first father-son consuls in the history of the Federation, which is also a good talk. "

Yang Dengbang took the opportunity to encourage.

Zhang Chongxin was overwhelmed immediately, and immediately stretched out his hand to pat the elder grandson's shoulder: "Don't feel pressured, it doesn't matter if you don't become a consul, as long as you can sit in the governor's position, grandpa will be very satisfied."

"Grandpa, it doesn't mean that you can become governor..." Zhang Guoji shook his head helplessly.

After the latest zoning adjustments, the Federation currently has a total of 280 nine governors. It seems that the number is quite large, but the local factions are complicated, and it is definitely not an easy task to get the upper hand.

"What are men afraid of? When your father took over from your grandfather, the conditions were far worse than they are now. Haven't you come to today? You remember, there is never the word retreat in the dictionary of our old Zhang family."

Zhang Chongxin slapped the dining table hard.

Seeing this, Li Dajuan quickly pulled his wife back: "Old man, why are you so excited? Our family doesn't lack anything. As long as Guoji and the others don't imitate bad habits, they can do whatever they want. Let's not care about it."

"Grandma is wise!"

These words reached the hearts of the four brothers.

"The kindness of a woman." Zhang Chongxin snorted coldly.

"I think you are old and confused." Li Dajuan immediately retorted, "The fourth child is actually the best example. If he had listened to you, he would have entered the factory as soon as he graduated and worked around the machine every day, and he would not have achieved what he is now. .”

"You are sophistry..."

Zhang Chongxin lacked confidence.

The fact is before his eyes, among his group of old buddies, there are only a handful of children who have become talents, and Zhou Hengming has the highest achievement, but compared with his own son, he is obviously inferior by more than one grade.

Li Dajuan quickly turned her attention to Yang Dengbang: "My father-in-law, you are a university professor and know more than us. Do you think what I said makes sense?"

"This is..."

Yang Dengbang considered it for a while, and said softly:

"Mother-in-law, you are right. Zhang Hao's achievements today are really inseparable from his trip around the world when he was young. The ancients said 'read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles', which is indeed very reasonable;

But Lao Zhang is right, after all, such an outstanding person as Zhang Hao is really rare. For ordinary people, they still have to keep their feet on the ground and take one step at a time. "

Zhang Chongxin quickly echoed: "Old Yang's words are reasonable, Guoji and the four of them are incomparable to his father, they should be taken care of, and we can't indulge them too much."

"Why can't it be compared? Zhang Hao's academic performance was not very good at the beginning. I remember that he only scored more than 500 points in the college entrance examination, and he just reached the second line."

Li Dajuan said unconvinced.

Yang Huaqing couldn't help being taken aback: "Mom? Are you serious? I thought Zhang Hao was a top student since he was a child?"

"He was very playful when he was a child, and it is already extraordinary to score more than 500 in the college entrance examination. How could he be a top student?" Li Dajuan laughed.

"If you ask me, what's so good about being a top student?" Kuang Wenhui waved her hand and couldn't help complaining, "Just like your father, he only knows how to study hard, but in the end he doesn't make as much money as other street vendors."

"Hey, what are you doing with me? Besides, reading is to enrich yourself and broaden your horizons, not to make money. Don't put the cart before the horse."

Yang Dengbang was not in a good mood.

Seeing that her parents were about to quarrel, Yang Huaqing quickly changed the topic: "Zhang Hao should be free, why don't we make a video call for him?"

"Mom, I'll call."

Zhang Guoxuan couldn’t wait to take out his mobile phone.

Soon, the call was connected.

"Dad, Dad, have you eaten yet?"

An'an and Kangkang shouted loudly.

Zhang Hao was changing his coat: "I haven't eaten yet. Dad is going to a banquet later, so he won't be hungry."

Because there is no distinction between day and night, the New Year’s Eve dinner this time is also a welcome banquet, which is held almost simultaneously with the local people, completely ignoring the time difference factor. This is also to create an atmosphere of national celebration.

"Dad, I want lucky money."

Kangkang snatched the phone from the second brother.

"What's the hurry, dad will send you a red envelope later." Zhang Hao said with a smile.

"Dad, you send the red envelope to the mobile phone of the elder brother or the second brother, not to the mother."

Kangkang quickly reminded.

Yang Huaqing immediately glared at her youngest son:

"Stinky boy, being a mother doesn't exist, right? If you don't learn well at a young age, you actually learned how to hide money?"

Zhang Hao nodded: "Don't worry, no one can take away the New Year's money that Dad gave you."

"Hey, long live Dad."

Kangkang said excitedly.

Yang Huaqing knocked his youngest son on the head, then took the mobile phone, projected the screen of the mobile phone onto the TV, and pointed the camera at the whole family at the same time.

Li Dajuan looked at her son who was getting thinner and couldn't help but asked with concern: "Son, why have you lost so much weight recently? Are you sick?"

"Mom, don't worry, I'm trying to lose weight, your son and I are in good health."

Zhang Hao explained casually.

"Why lose weight properly? Most people would like to gain some weight!" Li Dajuan nags.

"Mom, I now weigh 130 pounds, and the doctor said that my weight is just right."

Zhang Hao was helpless.

Zhang Chongxin turned his head to look at his wife, and tried to persuade him: "Old woman, don't forget that your son is now a consul, so you should pay attention to your personal image. Have you ever seen a consul who looks like a fat pig?"

"Okay, you're right, I won't talk about the head office, shall I?"

Li Dajuan said angrily.

Zhang Hao quickly smoothed things over and said: "Dad, my mother is also doing it for my own good. It's Chinese New Year today, both of you should say a few words less!"

"The older your father is, the more unreasonable he is. He argues with me every day at home." Li Dajuan said "grieved".

"Mom, please be considerate of my dad. He is stuck at home every day now, and he probably feels unhappy."

Zhang Hao explained to his father.

Kuang Wenhui quickly comforted her mother-in-law, and then asked her son-in-law, "Zhang Hao, where is our Haoxuan? Why didn't you see him?"

"Didn't brother-in-law call you?"

"I made a call in the afternoon and hung up without saying a few words. I don't know if I'm really that busy?"

Kuang Wenhui complained.

"Mom, Haoxuan is really busy recently. I helped him arrange several blind dates."

Zhang Hao quickly explained.

In fact, you don't need to ask, it's definitely not that my brother-in-law doesn't have time to make phone calls, but that he is disgusted by the family's urge to marry.

Kuang Wenhui's eyes lit up immediately, and she handed the granddaughter in her arms to her daughter, and asked impatiently, "How's the result? Is there anyone you like?"

"There's someone who sees each other right. The two have dated several times, but they just don't know if they can go further."

Zhang Hao replied.

"How old is the woman? What does she do?"

"The little girl's name is Dong Hui. She is three years younger than Haoxuan. She works in an oil company. She looks very pretty. Her parents are also middle-level cadres in the oil system. Her family background is quite good."

Kuang Wenhui said happily: "Family background doesn't matter, as long as he likes it, even if he finds a black man as his girlfriend, your father and I will also recognize it."

"Cough, Mom, don't worry, Haoxuan has changed a lot recently, and the blind date is not perfunctory. This is a good sign." Zhang Hao comforted.

"Yes, it seems that it is right to let him follow you."

Kuang Wenhui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Yang Huaqing immediately interjected: "Husband, if Haoxuan really likes her girl, what will he do with his next itinerary?"

"It's simple, he can choose to stay in Venezuela with his new girlfriend, or he can take her with him, it's like traveling together.

As for the woman's job, it's not a problem at all. After the inspection is over, I can help her arrange a new job, which will definitely not be worse than the current one. "

Zhang Hao expressed his thoughts.

Kuang Wenhui nodded again and again: "This arrangement is very thoughtful, nothing else is important, the most important thing is to catch other girls."

"Mom, I heard from Haoxuan that the two of them dated several times, and the woman took the initiative. I think as long as Haoxuan is willing, the success rate is quite high."

"Really? I'll call the brat right away and tell him to use more snacks and stop procrastinating."

Kuang Wenhui couldn't sit still immediately.

Seeing Assistant Wei's reminder, Zhang Hao raised his hand and glanced at his watch. The banquet time is almost here.

"Dad, Mom, Wife, the banquet here is about to start. I'll call you when the banquet is over."

"Well, go ahead!"

Zhang Chongxin nodded.

Immediately afterwards, the four brothers of the Zhang family waved to the camera at the same time: "Daddy, goodbye!"

"Hang up, you guys continue to eat!"

Zhang Hao also waved his hand.

……

Zhang Guoxuan got up early the next morning, and today he was going to his girlfriend's house to pay New Year's greetings.

Li Dajuan helped prepare a bunch of gifts.

Looking at the dozen or so bags in front of him, Zhang Guoxuan couldn't help feeling a little headache: "Grandma, are these too many? It's not the first time I've come here."

During the summer vacation last year, at the kind invitation of his girlfriend, he accompanied her back home once.

"Don't talk nonsense, I told you to take it with you, and you take it with you. Chinese New Year is different from usual." Li Dajuan explained.

"Then it won't take so much?"

Li Dajuan secretly glanced at her wife who was watching the news, and sighed:

"Your grandfather is not in good health. Maybe one day he will be gone. Grandma hopes that you and Tongtong will get married early so that your grandfather can hold his great-grandson in his arms."

"Grandma, grandpa has always been in good health, and he will definitely live to be a hundred years old." Zhang Guoxuan felt a twinge in his heart.

Both he and his eldest brother were brought up by their grandparents, and the relationship with their grandparents is undoubtedly deeper than that of their parents.

Li Dajuan patted the second grandson's arm: "Okay, people's lives are fixed, you can't force it, if you are really filial, you can do as grandma says."

"But grandma..." Zhang Guoxuan showed embarrassment, "Tongtong and I are still in school, how can we get married and have children?"

"Why not? Grandma asked someone about it. You can get married and have children during college. If Tongtong is really pregnant, you can take a year off from school. At most, you can graduate a year later, and the impact will not be great."

Li Dajuan spoke eloquently.

Zhang Guoxuan struggled for a while, finally gritted his teeth and agreed: "Okay, I will look for an opportunity to discuss with Tongtong later, if she agrees, I will get married this summer at the earliest."

"Okay, I know Tongtong, as long as you propose, she will definitely be willing to marry into our family."

Li Dajuan seemed confident.

It's not because of her bragging, but because of their family background, they want money, power and power, and they are the top existence in the entire federation.

If it was another family, Tongtong, let alone marrying in, probably wouldn't even be able to get in.

Speaking of which, the old man was a little dissatisfied with Tongtong's family background at the beginning. If it weren't for his son's full support, his precious grandson might not be able to fulfill his wish.

Zhang Guoxuan couldn't help but sighed: "Brother is really, he is a sophomore, and he is not in a hurry to talk about a girlfriend at all, so he gave all the pressure to me."

"I heard from your grandfather that your eldest brother will be in politics in the future, and marriage should not be too free."

Li Dajuan raised her mouth casually.

"Hehe, it seems that I am right not to be in politics, otherwise I would not even have the right to choose a wife, and that would be a bit miserable." Zhang Guoxuan finally felt a little more balanced.

"Don't gloat. Although grandma hasn't read much, she can tell that in this world, no matter how much money you make, it is not as important as being an official. Being an official is the real iron rice bowl, which can last a lifetime."

Zhang Guoxuan was a little unconcerned, and he put his arms around grandma's shoulders: "It is enough to have my elder brother in politics, I am still more interested in business, if An'an or Kangkang chooses to be a soldier again, then our housekeeping and military business will be all Qi is alive and truly invincible."

"Being a soldier is hard and dangerous, so don't be a soldier." Li Dajuan shook her head again and again.

"Tsk tsk, why don't you find an officer to be your husband for Guoguo? This way you can have the best of both worlds."

Zhang Guoxuan joked with a smile.

Li Dajuan patted her precious grandson's arm away: "Stop talking nonsense, it's getting late, grab your things and go quickly! By the way, when you come back, don't forget to bring Tongtong back with you."

"Yes, guarantee to complete the task!"

Zhang Guo pretended to pay a military salute.

As soon as the words were finished, Yang Huaqing walked over with a cigarette: "Take this cigarette too, your father is not at home, no one smokes."

The tobacco is a special supply. It is said that it is purely handmade, and the quantity is very limited. Only a few people in the entire Federation are eligible to enjoy it.

As a consul, Zhang Hao only has one bag per month, and on average, it is less than one pack a day.

Zhang Guoxuan waved his hand: "Mom, should I leave this cigarette to my grandpa?"

As for grandpa, he quit seven or eight years ago.

"Your grandfather is getting old, smoking is bad for your health, I'm about to make him quit smoking!"

Yang Huaqing stuffed the cigarette gun into the opponent's hand.
