Chapter 526: Simple Wedding
"Academician Zeng, don't worry! Our family also has a bread factory. As long as the project can be self-financing, we are confident to stick to it."
Xu Dong explained.
"Bread factory? What bread factory?"
"Coke Bakery Factory, have you ever heard of it?"
"Of course I've heard of it. The bread provided by your company for lunch at our workplace tastes pretty good."
Academician Zeng smiled.
Xu Dong then added: "Seaweed powder is one of the main raw materials of the bread factory. The two companies have an upstream and downstream relationship. I believe that with the support of the bread factory, a lot of costs should be reduced."
"That puts me at ease!"
Academician Zeng strongly agrees with this point.
He himself has been engaged in scientific research for decades and is very clear about the importance of marketization. Without marketization, no matter how advanced the technology is, it will be useless.
Next, the three of them talked about other topics.
However, it is not convenient after all during the Chinese New Year.
Before leaving, the two parties agreed to discuss it in detail a week later. Then the father and son left Academician Zeng's home, both of them looking relaxed.
Although there are twists and turns, fortunately the ending is satisfactory.
After seeing off the guests, Academician Zeng was about to go back to the house, but he didn't want to be stopped by the old lady.
"What's wrong?"
Mrs. Zeng pointed to the gifts on the table and asked:
"What to do with these things?"
Academician Zeng said angrily: "Why did you forget this? Why didn't you remind me just now?"
He never accepts gifts. .
This is also one of the reasons for poor interpersonal relationships.
"How to remind me? I just went out to use the restroom. When I came back, I just saw you sending people out. I didn't even think about it myself!"
Mrs. Zeng said angrily.
"Forget it." Academician Zeng waved his hand, "Hurry and take a look at what's inside. If it's not too valuable, just accept it!"
"Huh? Why did you change your gender?"
Academician Zeng said with a smile: "It's rare that I'm in a good mood today, so let's make an exception!"
His research field is about to usher in great development. He is so happy that he thinks it is a celebration in advance.
Mrs. Zeng felt a little confused, but the movements of her hands did not slow down, and the bag was quickly untied.
"It turns out to be rice. Why is it so heavy?"
After all, Academician Zeng is a member of the system.
Xu Dong discussed it with his father, and both father and son felt that it would be best to give him a practical gift when meeting for the first time without appearing too expensive.
After choosing and choosing, I finally chose rice.
Anyway, the days ahead are long, so don’t worry about not having a chance.
"Rice?"
Academician Zeng stepped forward and grabbed a handful of rice. Unexpectedly, it was still high-quality Northeast rice. It’s rare for someone to be thoughtful!
"Old man, do you want to accept it or not?"
"Take it, the boss and the others will come over tomorrow, just enough to cook a pot of rice. Our family hasn't had rice in almost five or six years, right?"
Mrs. Zeng said happily: "You finally have an idea. These two big bags weigh almost forty kilograms, which is enough for more than half a year."
A meal of rice is too luxurious and unrealistic, but if you eat two or three meals a week, you can still afford it.
If you save a little, you can eat it for a year without any problem.
"Okay, I'll leave the rice to you. I'm going back to work."
Academician Zeng smiled and waved his hand.
…
On the evening of the next day, Tan Aimin's family finally arrived, followed by Tan Aijia, the younger sister of the Tan family, who had come specially from Chuzhou.
Tomorrow is Tan Bangxiang's big day, and it will be too late if he doesn't come.
Tan Aifang made a hotel reservation early.
The reason why they don't live at home is because they can't live in it; on the other hand, they have temporarily lent the house to their eldest nephew as a wedding room.
In any case, getting married at home is more convenient and more decent than in a hotel.
As for after marriage, the couple plans to live in a hotel together.
Also saved money on rent!
In the evening, Pan's mother hosted a banquet for several relatives who came from afar. Xu Dong and his mother were also there. After all, one cannot ignore relatives.
This is not the first time for Tan Aijia to come to Yanjing. She has been here three times before, when Xu Jingyi got married and when the little lion and little tiger were born. She is no stranger to this place.
At the dinner table, Xu Ma is the absolute center of attention.
First, he is the oldest;
Secondly, he has a distinguished status. Even Tan Aijia, who is far away in Chuzhou, has heard of the name of Coke Bread Factory.
"Auntie, I saw your news on TV before. I told the child's father that this was Jingyi's grandma, but my family didn't believe it."
"Haha!" Xu Ma laughed heartily, "Next time your whole family comes over together, I'll treat you to dinner and let's get to know each other formally."
Tan Aifang echoed: "Yes, little sister, why doesn't your Lao Lin come every time?"
"He's busy with work and can't ask for leave from me."
“You don’t have time during the New Year?”
Xu Bin wondered.
"We were originally going to come together, but as a result, relatives came over temporarily, and we were delayed again."
"What a coincidence."
"Who says it isn't?"
Tan Aijia wrote lightly.
In fact, the fundamental reason is that her husband's family always makes slanderous remarks, and they just want her to follow the path of her eldest sister and get her cousins to work in the capital.
She is not stupid, and their family does not have children. Of course, good opportunities should be left to her own people. After all, no matter how close the two sisters are, they cannot withstand a few favors.
Besides, she could see it too.
The eldest brother-in-law is only good for face. The "Director Xu" in front of him is the real boss of the old Xu family. For the sake of the eldest brother-in-law, they may help their children.
As for the nephews, it's too far-fetched.
Tan Aifang hurriedly comforted: "Bangxiang's wife is already three months pregnant. You have to come over again in the middle of the year."
"Really? Ling Qian, you are pregnant?"
Ling Qian nodded shyly.
Tan's mother said happily: "It's true. It was just found out last week. The two of them have no experience. If it weren't for the eldest sister, I don't know how long it would have been delayed!"
"Sister-in-law, congratulations, you are going to be a grandmother."
"Bangxiang is not young anymore, this child comes at the right time."
Tan Miaomiao swallowed the meat in her mouth hard, and couldn't help but echoed: "And me, I'm going to be an aunt."
"Look at you, you don't look like an aunt at all, you just know how to eat."
Tan's mother looked at her daughter and suddenly became worried.
The youngest daughter is about to graduate from junior high school. Her academic performance is a mess. There is no hope for her to enter university. I don’t know if she can work in the bakery.
I heard from my son that Jingyi has a little cousin who joined the company at the age of 16. Now she is a department manager and has a bright future.
Well, I will talk to my husband about this later.
Xu Ma glanced at the little girl and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Being able to eat is a blessing. I like Miaomiao, especially her personality. She is very similar to our Lele."
Xu Dong nodded involuntarily.
Mom is right. This quirky look is indeed very similar to her little daughter, but the little girl is a little naive, while Lele is thick-skinned.
Tan's mother's eyes lit up and she immediately hit the snake with the stick:
"Aunt, if you like Miaomiao, why don't you let her stay in Yanjing?"
"How can this be possible? The child is not going to school?"
Xu Ma shook her head.
"She will graduate from junior high school in June. I will personally send her here. You are a capable person. Can you help the child find a way out?"
"Go out to work after graduating from junior high school?"
Mother Xu immediately thought of Da Jie.
Mother Tan smiled bitterly and said, "There is no way. The child's grades are at the bottom of the class. There is no hope for college. I am worried about her going to a technical school. Besides, she will go abroad after graduating from the technical school. We only have this one daughter. What if something happens to her..."
"Have you thought about it?"
"I have thought about it. We are parents with no ability. We are afraid of delaying the child."
Mother Tan nodded.
Mother Xu turned to look at the little girl: "Miao Miao, tell grandma, do you want to work?"
"Grandma, I want to work."
When Tan Miaomiao heard that she could come to the capital, she immediately nodded and agreed. She had heard from her eldest brother that the food at her aunt's house was particularly rich.
"Okay, let's try it here first."
Mother Tan was overjoyed: "Miao Miao, why don't you thank grandma?"
"Thank you grandma."
"Go back and study hard. Grandma won't accept you without a diploma."
Mother Xu joked.
"Grandma, don't worry, I will definitely get a diploma." Tan Miaomiao patted her chest and promised.
"Hahaha..."
Everyone was amused by this cute look.
...
The next morning, after breakfast.
The old Xu family, Xu Ting's family, including Da Jie, set off in a mighty manner. The bride's relatives were even fewer, so everyone just went to join in the fun.
In Jingzhiyuan Community, the bride and groom were welcoming relatives and friends at the door.
Because the bride was not a local, the bride-to-be reception was directly cancelled. Everything was kept as simple as possible, so there was no need to worry about gossip.
Because everyone did it this way.
As soon as the large group arrived, the house was suddenly crowded with people. Mother Xu pulled the bride into the bedroom. After all, she was three months pregnant, so it was better to be careful.
Seeing the distinguished guests coming, Ling's father and mother immediately came to greet them. They had heard from their daughter that the other party was a wealthy family, and it was indeed well-deserved.
Especially those children, they looked like they grew up in a honey pot, and ordinary families could not have such a body shape and complexion.
"Congratulations!"
Dad Xu bowed to the couple.
Tan Aimin took the initiative to introduce: "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, this is the great grandfather of Little Lion and Little Tiger."
"You are Mr. Xu, right? Our family's Ling Qian used to work in the bakery for more than six years. Thanks to you, our family has been able to survive these years."
"You are too polite, we can't do enough."
Dad Xu said modestly.
"Enough, too much! Ling Qian suddenly said she wanted to resign some time ago, and her mother and I were so scared that we almost rushed over from our hometown. You said how could this child not be sensible, such a good job, she just quit it."
Father Ling seemed very excited.
"You're worrying too much. Bangxiang is a hard-working and motivated kid. Even if Ling Qian doesn't work, he can still support her. You can rest assured."
"The son-in-law is really good."
Ling's mother nodded.
Although the son-in-law doesn't have a hukou in the capital, he has a good job and can earn tens of thousands of yuan a month, which is five or six times that of their daughter. What else is there to complain about?
Besides, the son-in-law has a good aunt.
With his aunt and uncle, he may get a hukou in the capital in two years. Such a rich son-in-law is hard to find even with a lantern.
