I have to say, Zhong Xiaoe's image is quite stunning, exuding an air of aristocracy from head to toe.
It's no wonder that in the TV drama, Zhong Xiaoe's image remains at the level of being 'out of touch with reality'.
Chen Hai Subconsciously glanced at the dining table and found only six or seven dishes, none of which were rare delicacies, before he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
His upbringing instilled in him a subconscious aversion to extravagance.
He Zhou's expression is completely different from Chen Hai, his eyes are sharper than ordinary people. Almost at the first glance of these dishes, his eyes slightly narrowed, these dishes are not rare delicacies, but they are definitely not cheap.
To give an example, it's like the emperor eating boiled cabbage. If you really compare this "boiled cabbage" with the "boiled cabbage" made by the common people, it is undoubtedly an insult to the imperial court chef.
It's easy to make delicious dishes with rare and precious ingredients, but it takes a very high level of skill to make delicious dishes with simple and common ingredients.
And the dishes in front of us are obviously the case. Just the carving of the carrot alone is breathtaking.
The exquisite dishes are so overwhelming that I don't know where to start.
"Hey, by the way, Liangping, tell me honestly, how did you meet Xiao Ai?" He Zhou took a bite of food, dipped it in some sauce, and leisurely asked when he had a moment.
He Zhou is quite curious about the secrets within. After all, the disparity between their backgrounds is like night and day, so logically, they shouldn't have any intersection at all.
In the context of feudal society, it's like a noble lady, the apple of someone's eye, and an ordinary young man from a remote town, one in the sky and one on the ground.
Hou Liangping and Zhong Xiao Xiao Ai glanced at each other, affectionately, then averted their eyes as if they understood each other's thoughts, filling the entire room with a strong sense of sweetness.
Hou Liangping scratched his head somewhat sheepishly, "Actually, our marriage is decided by our elders. Of course, it just so happens that we also have feelings for each other."
Seeing the couple's confusion, Hou Liangping wiped his mouth with a tissue and explained, "Actually, our marriage is arranged by our elders."
During the turbulent times ten years ago, Xiao Ai's grandfather was sent down to our town. At that time, my second aunt's husband was the principal of the town's primary school, and he used his little power to transfer Xiao Ai's grandfather to work as a boiler room worker at the school..."
After hearing this, He Zhou was stunned.
Sure enough, this is the son of destiny!
It's simply terrifying!
The story is so cliché that it's no wonder Hou Liangping's uncle-in-law could become the Director of the County Education Bureau. Perhaps there is a bit of "returning a favor for a favor" from the the Zhong Family after their resurgence.
In times of trouble, the repayment from the the Zhong Family is certainly more than just this.
Coincidentally, Hou Liangping's second uncle has no children of his own and treats Hou Liangping as his own. As a result, this stroke of luck has fallen onto Hou Liangping. This is simply a life of effortless success!
Qi Tongwei has spent a lot of effort, getting shot three times and sacrificing his life to earn the title of "Anti-drug Hero," while on the other hand, he kneels and cries at Liang Lu's grave to climb up by any means necessary. It's like the Virgin Mary coming down to earth, covered in holy light!
The more I hear, the more uncomfortable I feel.
Chen Hai didn't feel anything, because he was already a second-generation red, an official's second generation, and had always had an easy time, never experiencing the hardships of society or being beaten down by it.
Chen Hai just calmly said, "No wonder Xiao Ai hasn't visited me during my years at university."
This is the truth.
Of course, it is also very likely that Zhong Xiaoe has eyes higher than the top, does not put ordinary people in his eyes, and does not know how to communicate with The other party on an equal footing.
To be honest, the impression of Zhong Xiaoe from this meeting is not really good. Because He Zhou vaguely sensed that Zhong Xiaoe always seemed to show a bit of disdain towards him unintentionally.
Although very subtle, He Zhou's insight is so shrewd!
This kind of gaze, he really doesn't like.
Because it always reminds him of Liang Lu, that foolish and arrogant woman!
However, upon careful consideration, it's not entirely incomprehensible.
There are several people present, and He Zhou has the lowest background. He is a child from the mountains, and his family cannot provide him with any help, only leaving him with countless obstacles.
If it weren't for Gao Yuliang as his backer, it's very likely that He Zhou wouldn't have become the captain of the city criminal police team at the age of 22, with the rank of Zhenke. If it weren't for this, Zhong Xiaoe might not even bother inviting him to today's gathering, and even if he did, he would probably just ignore him directly.
Hou Liangping is also a perceptive person, feeling a bit uncomfortable in his heart.
Qi Tongwei is the white moonlight in his heart, seen as someone he always wants to surpass.
The result was that Zhong Xiaoe was so indifferent, so dismissive of his idol, which made him feel a little bit of pain in his heart.
"Come on, senior brother, I'll toast to you!"
Hou Liangping stood up and raised his glass.
His other hand subtly touched Zhong Xiaoe, his eyes carrying a hint of warning and a hint of supplication.
It's like a small man who maintains a strong sense of masculinity in front of his brothers, saves face for his wife, and can accept kneeling and scrubbing the washboard at home.
Zhong Xiaoe has long been taught by his parents that no matter what, he must save face for men outside and not hurt their self-esteem. Therefore, his expression only stiffened for a moment, and he quickly smiled and said, "You're right. Liangping has often told me that Tongwei and Chen Hai are his best brothers."
She smiled and nodded at He Zhou, then her gaze lingered on Chen Hai for a moment before slowly moving away.
With the power of the the Zhong Family in the capital, it is natural for Chen Yanshi, who has retired and leisurely settled in Handong and Jingzhou, to possess such a formidable network of relationships.
Even just for the sake of this network of relationships, the the Zhong Family must take Chen Hai, this prominent second generation figure, seriously.
The the Chen Family naturally does not compare to the glory of the the Zhong Family, nor their high status and power. However, several outstanding talents have emerged in the descendants of Chen Yanshi's old comrades.
Officialdom often means Thirty Years in Hedong, thirty years on the west bank of the river, without evergreen trees. Who knows what the future will look like?
"Speaking of which, I still have an excuse, work is more important than anything else."
He Zhou patted Chen Hai on the shoulder and asked in confusion, "Why don't you have a girlfriend yet, Chen Hai?"
Chen Hai is a bit of a blockhead when it comes to matters of the heart, as He Zhou understands it. Otherwise, which one of "The Three Heroes of Handong" hasn't been pursued by the girls from Handong University?
I haven't been confessed to ten or eight times, so I'm embarrassed to call myself The proud son of heaven.
