After everyone chatted together for a while, the servant came over and said:
"Sir, the meal is ready. Do you want to eat now?"
When Jiang Pengfei was sitting on the sofa and heard the title of servant, he felt that the Zhu family must be very rich. Even if you can afford to take care of a nanny, are you embarrassed to have people call you master?
"When the meal is ready, eat it. If you are not active in eating, you have a problem with your thinking!" Zhu Youliang slapped the table and stood up.
Jiang Pengfei followed the Zhu family, thinking that such a wealthy family would have guests prepare dozens of dishes.
As a result, when I walked to the restaurant and saw the dishes on the table, let alone dozens of dishes, there were not even ten dishes. There were only eight dishes in the sky.
Zhu Shijun was afraid that Jiang Pengfei would misunderstand, so he took the initiative to say after sitting down:
"Brother Pengfei, I am usually very frugal, so now that you are here, we can take advantage of it, otherwise it would only be four dishes!"
Zhu Youliang sat on the main seat at this time, turned to Jiang Pengfei on his left and sighed:
"People nowadays are always particular about appearances. In my opinion, all ostentation is a waste!"
"Well, when your father and I joined the queue to become educated youths, we were often hungry. Sometimes..."
Aunt Zhu Liang Yi was sitting on Zhu Youliang's right hand side. When she heard her husband started to sigh with emotion again, she quickly interrupted:
"Okay, stop talking about your past events and hurry up and eat. I'm already hungry even if I don't look at Pengfei!"
"Yes, eat!"
"Now that I'm getting older, I always want to miss the past. Especially when I see you today, I always think of the days when your dad and I jumped in line."
"Try this and see if it suits your taste!" Zhu Youliang put a dish into Jiang Pengfei's bowl.
One thing about the Zhu family that is different from other wealthy families is that you can talk casually at the dinner table. This is Zhu Youliang's rule. He feels that this can better promote the relationship between family members.
"Thank you, Uncle Zhu~" Jiang Pengfei picked up the chopsticks and ate quickly.
Liang Yi was also afraid that Jiang Pengfei would misunderstand, so he specifically said:
"Pengfei, all the vegetables we ate today, such as the eggs, pork, and chicken, were all raised by me and your uncle."
"We also grow vegetables ourselves, and we don't get much. If family members don't come over, we won't give him food!"
Liang Yi pointed to the braised chicken nuggets:
"Especially this chick, your Uncle Zhu treats it like a treasure. It's only because you are here that you are willing to order someone to kill one!"
Jiang Pengfei picked up a piece of chicken and put it in a bowl:
"Then I'm really in for a treat, I have to try it quickly~"
Seeing Jiang Pengfei's unpretentious look, Zhu Youliang sighed in his heart:
"I don't know what happened. It seems that this child's personality has changed. Before, he couldn't beat him with three sticks. He was spoiled by his old sister-in-law~"
"Pengfei, I remember you should be getting married. Why did you name Dai? Why didn't you bring him with you?"
At this time Liang Yi mentioned Jiang Pengfei's marriage situation.
Jiang Pengfei didn't hide it either:
"My name is Dai Yin. We divorced some time ago. We have a daughter, Jiang Nansun, who just entered college this year!"
When Liang Yi heard that she had just divorced, she felt a little embarrassed:
"Auntie didn't mean it!"
Jiang Pengfei smiled:
"It's okay. It's because we have no feelings for each other anymore, so it can be considered a peaceful breakup!"
Zhu Youliang ate less because he was old. He thought of his previous thoughts, put down his chopsticks and turned to Jiang Pengfei and asked:
"Xiao Jiang, what do you do now?"
Jiang Pengfei had nothing to be embarrassed about and told the truth:
"Uncle Zhu, I made some money from investing during this time!"
After hearing this, Zhu Youliang frowned and was a little dissatisfied, but he didn't say anything. Seeing that everyone had almost eaten, he looked at Jiang Pengfei and said:
"Pengfei, are you done eating? Do you want another bowl of rice?"
Jiang Pengfei shook his head and stretched out his hand to pat his belly:
"Uncle Zhu, your food is so good. I have to pick up some when I leave. Look at the support you gave me. I even loosened my belt twice!"
"Hahaha!"
"Okay, I'll bring you some when the time comes, but I'll tell you in advance that there won't be too much. Uncle won't be able to part with more~"
Zhu Youliang made a joke and then stood up again:
"You have to do some exercise after eating. If you take a walk after dinner, you can live ninety-nine years. Shijun and Pengfei will take a walk with me!"
Jiang Pengfei and Zhu Shijun accompanied Zhu Youliang for a walk after dinner. They walked a few laps in the garden of the manor and then sat on a chair outside to rest.
For the sake of his old friend Jiang's father, Zhu Youliang decided to help Jiang Pengfei even though he was dissatisfied with him now:
"Pengfei, why don't you come to my uncle's company to do something, and I'll ask your brother Shijie to help you arrange it!"
He always thought that Jiang Pengfei was lying when he said he made money from investment. He had heard some things about Jiang Pengfei before, and his evaluation of him was not very good, saying that he was a prodigal son.
The reason why he was so enthusiastic about being able to visit him today was simply because Zhu Yongliang was nostalgic as he was getting older and remembered his good brother Jiang Father who died young. If it weren't for the half piece of cornstarch given by Jiang's father that winter, he would have died that winter.
At this time, Zhu Shijun also said:
"That's right, Brother Pengfei, why don't you just come and help me and become my vice president!"
Jiang Pengfei didn't say he disagreed or agreed, but talked about another thing:
"I don't plan to invest now. I am very optimistic about domestic housing prices and plan to buy a house!"
Zhu Youliang sighed inwardly when he heard this. He was still lying at this point. Forget about love, what he just said was worthy of his father.
Then he became soft-hearted again, thought for a while and made a decision. He looked at Zhu Shijun aside and said:
"I remember that Xiaoye from Jingyan Group seems to be in real estate. Ask him later and see if he can get some houses at the lowest price for your brother Pengfei."
Zhu Youliang's subtext was to symbolically ask Jiang Pengfei to pay some money, and his family would pay the difference.
Zhu Shijun also understood what his father meant and glanced at Jiang Pengfei:
"I know dad, I'll call Mr. Ye later and ask!"
Jiang Pengfei also understood what Zhu Youliang meant and quickly waved his hand to refuse:
"Uncle Zhu, don't bother, I want to..."
"That's it!" Zhu Youliang interrupted Jiang Pengfei.
He was a little unhappy, but the city was relatively deep but he didn't show it.
Jiang Pengfei noticed Zhu Youliang's expression and quickly explained:
"Uncle Zhu, I want to buy too many houses, and I'm afraid that Mr. Ye will be in trouble!"
Zhu Youliang looked at Jiang Pengfei and said nothing. He was too lazy to talk to him now. He was giving his father face by not kicking him out.
Zhu Shijun's eyes showed a bit of contempt and he said casually:
"Brother Pengfei, don't worry. Back then, the old man helped Mr. Ye of Jingyan Group with just a few houses."
"One building!" Jiang Pengfei stretched out a finger and said.
"Okay, brother Pengfei, you don't have to pay, just treat me as..." Zhu Shijun didn't hear clearly. When he saw Jiang Pengfei raising a finger, he thought it was a set!
Zhu Youliang interrupted his son's words, stared at Jiang Pengfei expressionlessly and asked:
"My old man didn't hear clearly just now. Pengfei, when you stretched out your finger, you meant one building, not one set or ten sets?"
Zhu Shijun also reacted, looking at Jiang Pengfei with deep and complicated feelings, thinking: "This is too embarrassing, I can't afford to give him a house!"
