Chapter 497 The grace of a meal
Sure enough, you can't look at seniority.
This uncle is not very old either. He has just reached middle age and is not even bald yet.
My uncle's son is still very senior, so he should be called Cousin from Shen Guanglin.
How could it be possible to shout out!
As a person of the new era, it is impossible for Shen Guanglin to reach out to such a relative who is beyond his reach, and he is also someone who is so many generations older than himself.
Who would be happy to call someone grandpa when they have nothing to do?
This uncle and the young master of his family are both dressed in the same style, with metal-framed glasses, elegant and fair-skinned, and look like gentle scum, not people who grew up in the countryside.
The reason why they are said to be polite scum is because in this moment, the young man and his father had already peeked at Li Li several times.
The girl is too good-looking and there is really nothing I can do about it.
Wherever you go, you have to be seen. The same goes for sister Li Rong. She can attract the attention of the opposite sex wherever she goes, especially the middle-aged opposite sex. It is obvious that her body is no longer good, but her heart is still very beautiful. A typical example is Daqiang. son.
However, due to the Chinese New Year and relatives, Shen Guanglin could only pretend not to care, and distributed a cigarette to everyone, a red panda, the leader's favorite.
As for calling someone, that's impossible. You're not a relative of yours. You covet my wife, so why should I call you grandpa?
It was almost time to eat, and everyone gathered around the dinner table and chatted about home affairs.
"Mr. Shen, right? You teach at Beijing University?" My uncle asked, very dignified and like a leader.
My uncle sat at the end of the table, served tea and water, and didn't mention the issue of whether or not we were in need.
There is a powerful relative in the family, and everyone is fawning over him.
It can be seen that my uncle attaches great importance to this uncle.
This uncle's smoking posture is very handsome, and the watch on his wrist is also very bright. It is probably an imported watch.
A watch is a standard accessory for successful people in this era, and only Shen Guanglin does not have one.
It's not that he doesn't want to match, but he doesn't dare to match. Seven or eight watches have been taken away by his brother Zhang Guorong, including Patek Philippe, Rolex and Omega. His brother is the cousin, and Shen Guanglin is the younger brother.
"Yes, I worked as a small teacher at Jingcheng University." Shen Guanglin answered very modestly. He has always been proud of being a teacher at Jingcheng University.
Although Shen Guanglin has many identities, including the chief scientist of the Great Wall Group and a visiting professor at other schools, he feels that the one he is best at will always be a professor at Beijing University.
"It's great to be a teacher. You won't be timid when meeting all kinds of people. You became a professor at such a young age? Are you an associate or a full-time professor? Is it because your family background is better? What does your father do?"
This uncle asked a lot of questions, and he immediately got to the point, suspiciously and cautiously.
"We are all equal, why should we be timid? Even if you are not a teacher, you should not be timid when meeting people." Shen Guanglin looked very natural and answered evasively, because he knew this person on the way. If my uncle wants to ask for help, this is not the way to ask for help.
As for asking what Shen Guanglin's father does, Shen Guanglin did not answer.
He can't say that his father is a martyr, right? What about Xiangjiang's cousin Xiao Shen who is accompanying the child?
Seeing that Shen Guanglin didn't say who he was as a professor, my uncle didn't continue to ask questions, which was a favor to Xiao Shen.
He seemed to understand something.
How could he be a professor at such a young age? He was probably a lecturer staying at the school, maybe a staff member.
Those who teach in universities are not necessarily professors, it must be people from rural areas spreading rumors.
While we were talking, the food was served.
The banquet at noon today seemed a bit too formal. There were seven or eight hard dishes, and finally there were no undercooked dumplings.
Moreover, the women also had a separate table. My uncle's wife, the aunts, the younger aunts, and Li Li were not sitting at this table.
It can be seen that the young man brought by my uncle is still a little reluctant to give up. It seems that he has lost the opportunity to communicate and get to know each other, and he is very unwilling to do so.
Beautiful woman, who doesn't want to chat more.
Start with rice wine at noon.
After two glasses of warm wine, the atmosphere began to liven up.
"You don't know that our family, Guanglin, is amazing. As you know, the elementary and middle schools in our village, the most beautiful buildings, are sponsored by others."
My uncle was also afraid that his uncle would look down on Teacher Shen, so he made a special statement to show that he was really great.
My uncle was also afraid that Shen Guanglin didn't know that this uncle was a leader. Although he was only the leader of an enterprise or institution, he was still a leader and had to be respected.
In fact, there is no need for this at all. Shen Guanglin has no contact with his relatives, so he naturally doesn't care what they think.
Shen Guanglin didn't want to evaluate these leaders, but the leader wanted to evaluate Shen Guanglin.
"Then Xiao Shen is very good. I went to see it when I passed by just now. The school in your village is really well built. For the rural areas around Jinling, it is pretty good." The uncle said to Shen Guanglin. The work was affirmed.
In fact, the hardware conditions of this school are not bad, they are very good!
After the construction of the school was completed, before enrollment even started, the Jinling Municipal Government and the Education Bureau had already put up the sign of a standardized school.
The hardware conditions are not standard yet, but they are just pretty good here.
"Look, this school is built like the Jinling Hotel. This is all the credit of our family Guanglin. It's a pity that my two girls are older. Otherwise, it would be such a blessing to send them back to school again. "My uncle is indeed very knowledgeable and knows that the school is well-constructed.
However, my uncle's father and son are not willing to admit that a poor teacher has such great energy. He should not have such great energy when he has such a good-looking partner.
"You don't know, my dad's company is connecting with a charity foundation in Xiangjiang. Do you know about charity? It's a great philanthropist in ancient times. They are also donating money to build a school. If your village doesn't build a school, you can let them help you. , there will be big stars from Hong Kong coming to cut the ribbon when it opens.”
Young people finally have a chance to perform.
It seems that what he means is that if their village does not build this school, they can get a better school from the big boss of Xiangjiang. It is a pity that they should not build this school.
"What a coincidence, I actually heard about the behavior of this big boss in Xiangjiang. Is his surname Shao?"
Shen Guang and Lin Xin said that the world is really small, and Mr. Shao’s foundation has brought all its charities to Jinling.
"Yes, yes, The Legend of the Condor Heroes was produced by his film company, as well as Shanghai Tang. His company has too much money to spend. Any TV series can earn more than our total income in Jinling City." There’s more.”
This kind of thing is a bit disgusting and simply outrageous.
Shen Guanglin didn't want to argue, but he didn't want to agree either, which would make him look particularly stupid.
The young master's performance continues:
"Your school was built early. If it had been built a year or two later, people from Xiangjiang would have built the school, and it would have been much better than yours. The designers were specially invited from abroad, which is amazing."
Shen Guanglin really didn't want to talk to him, but he couldn't help but he kept talking, and what he said was so annoying.
"Young people, you still don't know enough. This charity foundation will not donate to build the entire school. They will only donate to build one building in the school, and the goal of the donation is to focus on the university. Secondary schools are also high schools. Junior high schools and elementary schools are not within the scope of their donations."
Shen Guanglin's words directly extinguished the young man's enthusiasm for talking.
The young man looked at his uncle, who nodded, it was true.
"The Xiangjiang Charitable Foundation did not donate an entire school, but what they donated to build was not one building, but two buildings. One of them is called Yifu Building and the other is called Shen Building. It seems that they have your last name. It has something to do with it being heavy."
Finally, there is someone who can tell the truth. Shen Guanglin paid for the construction of Shen Tower, but he hid his merits and fame deeply and did not tell them, waiting for future generations to discover them.
Then, the formal meal began.
The salted duck on the table today tasted good, just like the taste of his mother when he was a child. Shen Guanglin ate one piece after another.
The next wine they drank was the Maotai that Shen Guanglin brought over. This wine was delicious and had a soy sauce aroma, which was no worse than rice wine.
We exchanged wine and toasts, but we didn't feel bad about seeing each other late. Instead, we had a few words and didn't agree with each other.
"Uncle, didn't you say that Hua Zi's cousin is going to be promoted? When the ribbon-cutting ceremony was held for the school built by Guanglin, our district chief and mayor were both here. It was up to him to make peace, pass a message, make a favor, etc. Isn’t it convenient?”
This uncle is very positive, and his desire to please his uncle is clearly visible on his face. Maybe this is his survival wisdom.
That’s what it means!
However, if you have relatives, you don’t have to show off like this.
"I am an ordinary teacher far away in the capital. How can I help? Uncle, you don't need to praise me like this." In fact, Shen Guanglin was a little unhappy. He was not close to them either, so why did he talk like this.
"Guang Lin, how do you think your uncle treats you?" My uncle may have drunk a little too much, and his voice started to rise.
Shen Guanglin was stunned. You didn't take the wrong medicine, right? I just ate a few meals from you. You didn't need to take any responsibility, so you thought you raised me up.
"It's good. I've been eating at your house for three days."
What Shen Guanglin emphasized was three days of food. He couldn't say no! After all, after eating someone else's food, you couldn't say no to someone's face.
How does it come about? A big D person can explain it.
"Then my uncle is asking you to do a favor, should you not do it?".
"People can only do what they can. I can't do things that they can't do and things that they shouldn't do." Shen Guanglin insisted that he didn't want to agree to his uncle's request. Is he really drunk too much, or was he just using alcohol? I really want to say something.
Chapter completed!
