Translator: 549690339

Since the opening of the Oriental Hotel, there had been business almost every day. Probably because of its location, service, and reputation, it was one of the top hotels in Harbor City. The morning of the 18th was full of sunshine, which dispelled the thick chill. 𝗳re𝗲𝚠e𝐛n𝗼v𝗲l.c𝐨𝐦

Today, Xiao Hongwei was holding a banquet here, so the hotel manager personally asked about the details. He wanted to leave a good impression so that he could at least have a conversation with him when they met in the future.

At the main entrance, there was already a bright banner.

“Happy 20th birthday, Xiao Hongwei and Lu Yuqing’s beloved daughter, Xiao rongyu!”

This was the custom of Northern Jiangsu. The age of 20 was a very important day, second only to marriage, funeral, and marriage.

At around 9 O ‘clock, a group of people appeared at the entrance of the hotel one after another. Some were old ladies in gray and white cotton-padded jackets, some were women carrying children, some were old men smoking cigarettes, and of course, there were also young people wearing thin leather jackets in the cold weather.

They shook hands and greeted each other from afar.

These were all Xiao Hongwei’s relatives. Although old Xiao and Lu Yuqing’s families were very well-to-do, some of their relatives were just very simple farmers. However, they were very enthusiastic. When they heard that their juniors or cousins were over 20 years old, they took a bus to the city very early.

In fact, rural people valued etiquette more, and their sense of family was deeper.

After 9:30, another group of relatives came.

Most of them drove over, and they looked like middle-aged couples with successful careers. Their children were dressed neatly, and the cigarettes they took out were all more than 20 Yuan, and some were even Zhonghua cigarettes.

In fact, it was very strange. They were all relatives, but the rich relatives would go to Xiao Hongwei’s house first, as if they were showing off.For those who were more average, everyone arrived at the hotel first.

This was also a very interesting reflection of the local society.

At around 10 O ‘clock, old Xiao’s family also came over. Because of the continuous visits from relatives, it took a long time.

Old Xiao was a big Shot in a small city like Harbor City, so even if some relatives waited for an hour, they wouldn’t be angry. Especially the hotel manager, who kept asking the waiters to serve tea.

sorry, sorry, we’re late, ” old Xiao apologized after he got out of the car.

“I’m fine, cousin. Where’s my niece?”

“It’s not too late, it’s only 10 O ‘clock.”

“Yeah, we just arrived.”

His relatives consoled him considerately. Xiao Hongwei took out Zhonghua cigarette from his pocket and started to smoke. At this time, Xiao rongyu’s grandmother, mother, and herself all got out of the car.

Grandma was wearing a red cotton-padded jacket with pearls embellished on the sleeves, which made her look very festive.

Her mother was wearing a coffee-colored woolen trench coat, which made her look even more luxurious.

Xiao rongyu was wearing a pink down jacket with a bit of light makeup on. Her exquisite oval face was as clear as Jade, and her curled eyelashes fluttered. Her mouth was pink and lustrous, and her signature ponytail swayed with her body, showing the liveliness and youth of a 20-year-old.

The relatives laughed and surrounded him.

“Second grandma, you’re celebrating your birthday,”

sister-in-law, your trench coat looks really nice.

little Yu ‘er is already 20 years old. You’ll always be so beautiful.

Next, Xiao Hongwei brought Xiao rongyu to greet their relatives.

Because she didn’t have much contact with some of her relatives, and because she was in school, she might not have seen them much. However, since they were attending the banquet, she had to greet them politely.

Xiao Yu ‘er had a sharp tongue and a sweet voice. In addition, her family was good. Many elders wanted to give her red packets, but Lu Yuqing quickly stopped them. It had been more than a month since the Spring Festival. How could she still accept red packets?

The older brothers in their 20s even responded in a daze when they saw how beautiful their sister was.

Before she could even finish her greetings, a large group of children had already followed behind her. They were all primary school students and kindergarten students. When they saw that their sister was beautiful, they all wrapped themselves around her legs and looked up at Xiao rongyu.

The hotel manager knew that Xiao Hongwei had arrived, so he quickly came out of the hall to greet him. He took out the 95th Supreme sword and said respectfully,”There’s quite a lot of people today.”

“Yes.”

Xiao Hongwei was a little dizzy from all the work, so he quickly asked,”Everything’s been arranged, right?”

“It’s done,”

“There won’t be any problems,” the hotel manager promised, patting his chest.

Xiao Hongwei was relieved and took the initiative to shake hands with the hotel manager.”Then I’ll leave it to you.”

“Oh, that’s right.”

Old Xiao took out another red packet from his pocket. “This is for the emcee, please help me pass on the message.”

The hotel manager took the red packet and was puzzled.Didn’t you guys invite the emcee? it’s not like the hotel invited him, so how am I supposed to pass on the message?

However, Xiao Hongwei did not have time to explain, because at around 10:30, his and Lu Yuqing’s colleagues came over.

They were all big shots, at least in Hong Kong.

All kinds of bureau chief and director titles were flying around. Old Xiao hurriedly left his relatives and greeted the uncles and aunties with Xiao rongyu.

The relatives did not feel neglected. Instead, they were a little envious, because one could tell how well a person was doing from the friends they made.

Old Chen and Liang meijuan also came over. Their units were close to each other, so the two of them had arranged to walk over.

“What took you guys so long to appear?”

“I’ve been talking so much that my throat has gone hoarse,” Xiao Hongwei said hurriedly.

“Uncle Chen, aunt Liang.”

Xiao Yu ‘er also came over to greet him.

“My daughter ~”

Liang meijuan didn’t know what to say and reached out to hug Xiao rongyu. Xiao Yu ‘er also obediently leaned her head on Liang meijuan’s shoulder.

They all knew that Chen hansheng would be absent from the banquet.

But Xiao Hongwei didn’t know that. He looked back and said,”Where’s han Sheng? where did that kid go to play?”

“He … He …”

Liang meijuan stammered, not knowing how to explain.

Fortunately, Xiao Hongwei was just asking casually. He did not believe that Chen hansheng would be absent today. He turned to Chen Zhaojun and said, old Chen, I’m going to take care of my relatives. Please help me to comfort my colleagues in the unit. Little Yu ‘er, you follow daddy. There are still some elders here that I need to get to know.

After Xiao Hongwei left with his daughter, Liang meijuan looked at her husband. what should we do? the dog still won’t answer my phone. Let’s put down the gift and go back.

“What nonsense are you spouting?”

Chen Zhaojun interrupted his wife,”If the son runs away, can the parents still run after him?”

Elder Chen took out his social cigarette and started to help Xiao Hongwei greet the guests.

If one were to ask where Chen hansheng had learned his social skills, half of it was due to his independent personality, and the other half was due to old Chen’s influence.

He saw Chen Zhaojun “infiltrate” the inner circle without a change in his expression. When he met guests, he first introduced their identities, and then talked about some interesting news in gang city.When he met Xiao Hongwei’s relatives in the countryside, he would talk about this year’s harvest.When he met his wealthy relatives, old Chen would talk to them about the changes in the market economic system.

Old Chen had been practicing calligraphy for many years. His self-restraint and bearing were very good. In addition, his unit was not bad, so everyone gave him some face when he greeted them.

Just like that, they stood under the sun at 11 O ‘clock. The hotel manager said that it was about time, and the banquet officially began at 12 O’ clock. Xiao Hongwei then called for everyone to enter the main hall.

“Hurry up, my daughter. You’re the star today.”

Old Xiao saw Xiao Yu ‘er standing at the door, her eyes fixed on the South.

“I know.”

Xiao rongyu responded in silence. There was no red xiali in her sight, only a gray bus that was slowly driving in.

This bus was very inconspicuous and had a ” su A ” Jian ‘mo license plate.

In the car, the content of the discussion was all about the life of college students.

we’re moving to a new dormitory this semester. I’ve been having insomnia in the new dormitory. I didn’t expect to sleep so comfortably in Harbor City.

“It’s already my second year in the blink of an eye. Time really flies.”

“Xiaomeng, how many marks did you get on the CET-4 last December?”

A dark-skinned boy also asked his companion, “”How many points did you get in the fourth grade?”

“Around 100 points,”

“In short, everyone’s numbers are in the three digits, so the difference isn’t that big,” a voice replied with a sneer.

“How can a level 4 with more than 100 points be the same as a level 4 with more than 500 points?”

The dark-skinned boy said in dissatisfaction, “”I didn’t do well in the listening test, but I barely passed the fourth level.”

awesome. I can’t get many marks in English listening even with headphones on. I might as well rely on my senses.

The boy who had scored more than 100 marks for the CET-4 suddenly stood up. He was wearing a formal suit and leather shoes. He looked out of the window and said, ” we’ve already arrived at the hotel. Everyone, be careful. Enter the village quietly. Don’t shoot.
