Chapter 852 Unusual
The Lord is back?
Is this the person who kept everyone waiting for almost two hours?
Chu Yunfeng's belated arrival instantly aroused the curiosity of everyone present, especially those of his generation, who also wanted to see if this person who had just "returned home" had three heads and six arms?

In the minds of the younger generation, this person is definitely a great person, even a fierce person, who dares to show off in front of the old man, and also specifically fights against the old man's most hated concept of unpunctuality.

Therefore, everyone faced Chu Yunfeng more with a spectator mentality, but in the eyes of the higher generation, Chu Yunfeng was a controversial person for them.

What upset them the most was Chu Yunfeng's mother. The large-scale resignation this time did not save any kindness, which made everyone "heavy loss".

And Chu Yunfeng's belated "high profile" made them even more dissatisfied, thinking that it was Xia Tong's instruction, and the purpose was to step on everyone again in this matter.

So many people were upset, but no one would express it directly in front of the old man, but no one would show more enthusiasm for him the moment they saw Chu Yunfeng.

"It's good to come back. Let's start the banquet then and notify Zhang Ma to serve the food."

The old man showed a happy smile when he saw Chu Yunfeng, which made Chu Zhao, who had been observing closely, feel a little incredible. The old man seemed to be very happy after being so late?
"Old man, Xiao Chu is back, so I will go back first and come back to chat with you another day."

President Hou quickly glanced around the hall as soon as he entered the door. It didn't matter if he didn't look at it. He almost suffocated at the first glance.

Tonight's family dinner is extraordinary. All the senior members of the Chu family are back. This is considered a very important family gathering.

A scale like this can usually only be seen during the Chinese New Year, so Chu Yunfeng came back so late, which naturally gave everyone a bad impression.

And the initiator of all this, President Hou himself, could already feel his heart beating uneasily. If this old man had any opinions about himself, he would probably just have to suffer.

So the most important thing now is to get out of the way quickly. President Hou is waiting for the old man to speak, so that he can rub oil on his feet immediately and not let more people know that he is the culprit for Chu Yunfeng's late return.

But President Hou made a miscalculation. After standing up, the old man said something else: "We've all come here, let's have a casual meal together."

Are you here?

Together?
potluck?

President Hou felt that his whole body was a little stiff, but he still nodded his head twice, and his heart beat faster involuntarily.

The most disturbing thing in my heart is that I don't know what the old man is thinking. Although I also sent a text message to the old man halfway, telling him about the situation in the back kitchen, I will come back later.

But the old man didn't give himself any reply, so this made President Hou feel very hopeless, and this was the real reason why he wanted to run away immediately.

"Lao Hou, please don't go out. Let's have two more drinks later."

Chu Dingtian knew that President Hou played a very important role in Chu Yunfeng's growth. Seeing that he was "shocked" by the old man's words, he immediately stepped forward and gave him a reassuring gesture.

Whoo~!

It’s okay if it’s okay, it’s okay if it’s okay!

President Hou finally showed a smile on his face, the pressure in front of the old man is really not ordinary.

"Feng'er, come here and let me introduce you. This is your second uncle Chu Zhao, this is your second aunt Lin Wanrong, and your sister Chu Luo."

The Chu Zhao family first appeared in front of Chu Yunfeng. When they formally faced Chu Yunfeng, Chu Zhao and Lin Wanrong both had faint smiles on their faces, while Chu Luo opened his curious eyes and carefully looked at the person in front of him. A cousin who is one year older than me.

After Chu Yunfeng entered the door, his eyes immediately searched for Mu Qing, and he gave her a reassuring look. He was relieved when he saw her smiling in response to him.

I originally planned to go over and comfort her first, but I didn't expect that my father would cut off her hair.

"Hello, second uncle, hello second aunt, hello Luoluo, I'm Chu Yunfeng, nice to meet you."

Chu Yunfeng has seen a lot of people in big events. When he said hello, he naturally showed a trace of his quiet and humble aura, and his behavior was very grand.

This immediately made Chu Zhao's eyes light up, and his evaluation of Chu Yunfeng was immediately higher.

Chu Zhao, who has met countless people, clearly felt the confident aura transmitted from Chu Yunfeng. He was very curious about how his nephew, who was one year younger than his daughter, had such calmness.
This inevitably made Chu Zhao and Chu Yunfeng shake hands with a little more intensity.

Hmm~?

Do you have good hands?

Who is Chu Zhao? Like Chu Dingtian, he is a person who has undergone special training. The strength in his hands is not ordinary.

After he increased the strength on his hands, he was surprised to find that what Chu Yunfeng gave him was so overwhelming that he almost couldn't handle it?

"What a boy, you're so energetic!"

After retaining his three-point strength, Chu Zhao had already clearly felt that Chu Yunfeng was feeling a little strenuous, so he let go of his hand and withdrew it back.

After relaxing his right hand, which had begun to feel sore and numb, Chu Zhao patted Chu Yunfeng's shoulder with his left hand and nodded with satisfaction.

"Oh~? It's not easy to get praise from your second uncle."

There was also a flash of surprise in Chu Dingtian's eyes, and he was also keenly aware of Chu Zhao's slightly trembling hands, so he felt a little inconceivable about his son's hand strength.

"It was my second uncle who let me go. It's my second uncle who is so powerful!"

Chu Yunfeng could clearly feel that Chu Zhao was holding back. Even his current "SS" physique was no match for him, which showed that this second uncle's strength was extraordinary.

Next, Chu Dingtian continued to take Chu Yunfeng to meet everyone in the family, but Chu Yunfeng found that except for his second uncle's family, everyone else had a vague sense of distance.

"It feels pretty good, Xia Tong gave birth to a good son, quite temperament!"

Lin Wanrong had a good impression of Chu Yunfeng's meeting, but she was more curious about why the old man tolerated Chu Yunfeng's lateness.

Chu Zhao nodded, seeing the other people's alienation towards Chu Yunfeng, he couldn't help shaking his head, he was very disdainful of these people's eyes, and understood why they did this.

Humph~!

A bunch of moths!
Xia Tong has endured it long enough for so many years. If it were him, he would have kicked these guys out long ago. Why would he wait until now?

Chu Zhao very much agrees with Xia Tong's actions, but in this hall, these people seem to be confused. If Xia Tong is doing business, you won't even have time to cry.

"Dad, this brother of mine doesn't seem to be simple?"

Luo Luo looked at the back of Chu Dingtian, with a playful smile on his lips, and felt a different flavor from Chu Yunfeng.

"You are knowledgeable, and my daughter is discerning. They are both young people. If you have nothing to do, you can hang out more."

Chu Dingtian and Lin Wanrong looked at each other, and both saw the gratified look in each other's eyes, feeling sincerely happy for their daughter's growth.

Not everyone present could see the difference in Chu Yunfeng, and those who were still wearing masks to draw a clear line with him had unknowingly highlighted the extraordinaryness of their own daughters.

The process of identifying people was finally over, and Chu Yunfeng couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He also had a deep understanding of his relatives. There were indeed quite a few of them.

There are four tables in the hall, and two tables in the two adjacent rooms, which shows from the side that the people of the Chu family are thriving.

"Feng'er, come and sit here with grandpa!"

The old man's words made everyone's eyes almost petrified again, envy, jealousy and all kinds of inexplicable flavors flashed in their eyes.

According to the usual gathering pattern, people of Chu Yunfeng's generation are in two rooms. This is where the younger generations gather, and the table in the hall is where the elders in the family sit.

Not to mention the old man's main table. People who don't have any status in the family should not worry about it. Only those who made some special contributions that year or won some big prizes would have the honor to sit there.

So every year at the gathering, everyone will discuss who will sit at that table this year and get a word or two of praise from the old man, which will make everyone envious.

As for Chu Yunfeng, who was late today, how could he let the old man personally "order" him and take the position that everyone coveted?
"Girl, come with grandma, let's go to that table to eat!"

Grandma's words immediately made many people's bodies turn to stone. It was enough for Chu Yunfeng to sit at the main table. How could even his girlfriend have such an honor?
Seeing the unstoppable doting in grandma's eyes, many people felt sour in their hearts.

Even though the old man was very dignified at home, if grandma lost her temper, even he would have to give in, so no one dared to have any objection to what grandma said.

"Are you okay? The delay today is indeed a bit long. I will make it up to you later."

Finally able to talk to Mu Qing together, Chu Yunfeng took Mu Qing's hand and squeezed it twice, with an apologetic look on his face.

"Then it's settled, I have the final say on this compensation!"

Mu Qing also pinched Chu Yunfeng twice and responded. Being smart, she naturally understood the guilt expressed by Chu Yunfeng, but it did not mean that she would make trouble unreasonably.

"No problem, just follow your orders."

Chu Yunfeng knew that Mu Qing was trying to comfort him. The so-called compensation he asked for was probably just to accompany her shopping and eat snacks. How could he not let himself take care of her with such emotional intelligence?

"Xiao Hou, come here and sit down!"

President Hou, who was suddenly invited, was originally going to sit at the second table. He had a lot of friends and knew many people in the Chu family. Who would have thought that the old man would also let him sit at the main table?

"Hey, if the old man invites you, then I won't keep you."

The Chu family, who were having a lively chat with President Hou, saw that the old man had spoken. Although they were a little surprised, they quickly urged him to come over.

"Okay, let's have two more drinks later!"

After responding to the old man, President Hou naturally couldn't let people feel a little neglectful. "Drinking two more drinks" would make people feel that he was valued.

So after the old man took his seat at the main table, grandma sat next to him, followed by Mu Qing, Chu Yunfeng and President Hou.

Among the people present, looking at the five remaining seats on the main table, some people smiled and walked over, while others shook their heads and turned to the secondary table.

The people walking towards the main table were Chu Dingtian, Chu Zhao and the other three important figures of the Chu family. They were all the mainstays of the family, so they naturally had the courage to sit at the main table.

Seeing the two young figures on the main table, the eyes of the people on the other three tables were still a little confused, and they even had some amusement in their hearts.

When they first met Chu Yunfeng, everyone expressed regret for the incident that year, and at the same time expressed cordial concern for Chu Yunfeng's safe return.

Some people even enthusiastically talked to Chu Yunfeng about the embarrassing things that happened when he was a child, which were nothing more than bedwetting or naughty past, but it made Chu Yunfeng recall the dusty memories of his childhood.

So many years of wandering life have already trained Chu Yunfeng, and with his greatly improved emotional intelligence, he is naturally able to distinguish the sincere emotions in everyone's words.

But it seems that when people mention their childhood past, they tend to pay more attention and ask about it. After all, these are the regrets that they are missing.

It was at this moment that Chu Yunfeng finally found a trace of his childhood memories that had almost disappeared, and truly integrated himself into the environment of the Chu family.

However, Chu Yunfeng's sense of involvement did not resonate with others. Instead, they felt more of the old man's preference for him being able to sit at the main table.

And this kind of preference, especially in what he did tonight, made it impossible for everyone to feel recognized by the old man's attitude.

"Today is a very special day, and it is also my happiest day. My grandson who has been away for a long time is finally back. This is worthy of our celebration. Cheers!"

The old man's words were sonorous and forceful, and he picked up the wine glass with excitement and cheered up. Then he could hear the sound of chairs being moved, and the glass was raised high.

"Dad, drink less!"

Chu Dingtian was naturally more concerned about the old man's health. The doctor had already ordered him not to drink alcohol, but who could persuade an excited old man today?
"Say this to me again tomorrow, and you can leave it alone today!"

The old man was really in the mood, and immediately said something to Chu Dingtian, and Chu Zhao naturally knew the risks involved, and reminded him: "Brother is right, dad, you should drink less.

I'll pour you a drink, don't drink it full! "

"As I said before, don't ruin my fun today!"

The old man frowned and pouted, as if an old child was losing his temper, which also made Chu Zhao feel very troubled.

The old lady naturally had the right to speak. She didn't want the old man to ignore his health just for the sake of happiness. She sighed and said, "Feng'er came back today. I know you are happy, but you still have to pay attention to your health and drink less!"

"I know, I know!"

The old man pursed his lips and felt a little unmotivated. He had just had a drink and was enjoying himself, but was immediately interrupted. But facing his wife, what could he do?

Then his eyes lit up, and he stood up immediately and said, "Go and help me take out the wine Feng'er sent. Is it okay to drink it today?
The doctor said last time that you can drink a little more of the wine made by Feng'er. "

The old man patted his grandma on the shoulder, with a lively look on his face, as if he was showing off.

And everyone also received an important piece of information, the wine made by Chu Yunfeng?

Can it be certified by a doctor?
what's the situation?
The old man's following words made everyone begin to recognize and value this young man who had been somewhat alienated before.
