Chapter 32(1/2)
Song Chen wrote about the Epiphyllum Feast twice in "Divorce". This kind of large gathering has many characters, which is very suitable for writing group dramas, so it is also very suitable for writing small climaxes.
The first time he wrote in "Divorce" in "The Epiphyllum Feast", Song Chen took the wine bottle and smashed the head of the eldest son of the Li family while drunk. This set the tone, and through a chapter of conflict, Song Chen's perverted behavior was created.
The second ephemeral feast in "Divorce" was the dinner where he and Zhao Jindong got married. There were more stories happening there, which was one of the climaxes of "Divorce". Finally, it ended with the Eagle Awakening incident, pushing the marriage between Zhao Jindong and Song Chen directly into the abyss.
The Epiphyllum Epiphyllum is a dinner party. With experience and technical means, the masters of the flower room can accurately control the time when the Epiphyllum Epiphyllum is in full bloom. It is around nine o'clock, and the dinner party begins at seven o'clock.
This is a dinner party that is fighting for beauty. The powerful and noble families in City A were collectively dispatched. Women were not as relaxed as celebrities walking on the red carpet. They tried one set of evening dresses after another.
Mrs. Zhao lay on the mirror and asked Mrs. Chen to help her tie her waist. After a long time, Mrs. Chen could not pull the zipper of the red evening dress. Mrs. Zhao finally gave up completely, and when her stomach loosened, the evening dress was stretched open.
"Oh my god, I really can't wear it."
Mrs. Chen panted behind her and said, "In my opinion, the royal blue style is good, graceful and elegant."
"I can wear this red piece last year, but I can't wear it this year. I've been losing weight recently and haven't eaten much for dinner."
Mrs. Zhao took off the red evening dress in a disgusting manner. As soon as she took it off, she heard a knock on the door outside. It was Song Chen, who shouted outside: "Mom, can you come in?"
Mrs. Zhao put on her coat and covered her and said, "Come in."
Song Chen came in.
As soon as she came in, her eyes lit up.
Song Chen usually dresses up elites, combed his hair and suits, and was full of energy and imposing. On such a grand day today, he went the other way, his hair was laid down and his clothes were casual, with gray sweatshirts and trousers. He suddenly became much younger, like a freshman student.
"Uncle Yang's family is here, and Dad asked the driver to pick him up. He is almost here. He can't come back, so let's go to the door to pick him up."
Mrs. Zhao said: "You're just wearing this?"
Song Chen looked at his clothes: "Can't it work?"
"It's a bit too simple." The dinner was dressed more formally and respectful to the guests.
"I know, I'll change my suits by the evening."
Mrs. Zhao nodded: "The tuxedo I just customized for you is a pair with my second brother. Wearing Duden, you both are clothes racks. You and I will wait at the door first, and I will change my clothes and go there. If it's too late, you two will invite the Yang family members in first."
Song Chen went out to find Zhao Jindong. He still lacked experience in dealing with people, especially the guests he received today were either rich or noble. He was afraid of making mistakes, so he was more safe with Zhao Jindong.
Zhao Jindong was checking some drinks in the backyard. Hearing this, he gave the order to the people around him and went to the yard in front with Song Chen. After walking a few steps, he looked back at Song Chen and said, "You're wearing this?"
"I'll change it tonight." Song Chen said.
He just thought that he wouldn't go out today and wouldn't have to wear a suit or tie, so he would also change his image by the way... The softer image may also help Zhao Jindong get to know him again.
Song Chen just gives people the feeling that he is too noble and arrogant.
The reason why his marriage with Zhao Jindong was that Zhao Jindong, who got up from the bottom, was sensitive and strong. The one that suited him was actually the real little white flower. If this little white flower came from a good family background, it was the best for him. Just like the top scholar who came from a poor family in ancient opera scripts, the best partner was those gentle ladies with beauty and family background... rather than thorny roses.
This is a man's secret psychology, and as a man, he naturally understands it too.
Sure enough, Zhao Jindong looked at him several times.
Dressing up is the second face of a person. It is difficult for Song Chen, who has a new look, not to let him take a look at him.
He thought Song Chen's appearance was really deceptive, and his flamboyant personality had a white face. Now that his hair was laid down and his bangs were parted, this was a hairstyle that tests his appearance. Maybe he was a traitor, but if his face was beautiful enough, this hairstyle would make people look soft and bright.
Song Chen obviously can withstand any hairstyle.
It is not the first time Mr. Yang has come to the Zhao family, but his wife and daughter have come to the first time. Yang Hui sat in the car and looked out the window and said, "I heard that the Zhao family manor is so grand, but I didn't expect it to be so big."
The manor that combines Chinese and Western styles is meticulously carved everywhere, and the scenery is clearly taken care of by spending a lot of money. Through the window, the big villa deep in the manor is vaguely seen, with the white marble appearance hidden among flowers and trees. Even Yang Hui, who is used to seeing the mansion, also had her eyes lit up.
"If you like it, let's have a good chat with the boss of the Zhao family today. If you get married, why don't you live here every day?" said Mrs. Yang.
"What are you saying? Is it a lifelong event for a house?"
"That's it." Yang Hui said.
Mr. Yang smiled and said, "But we still have to have a good chat with Xinzhi. You played together when you were a child. This child is capable and looks tall and handsome."
"I don't care about my face, the most important thing is to chat with me," said Yang Hui.
But Yang Hui, who had just finished speaking, couldn't take his eyes off her face, the moment she saw Zhao Jindong and Song Chen.
He was tall and handsome, one was more handsome than the other, but the other was taller and taller, and the other was thinner. He stood side by side and reminded her of a word called Zhilan Yushu.
"Uncle Yang." Zhao Jindong held Mr. Yang's hand stretched out, and nodded at Mrs. Yang and Yang Hui and her daughter behind him.
"The last time I met you in Nancheng was a year ago. I heard from your father that you are getting more and more prosperous now." Mr. Yang patted Zhao Jindong's shoulder and looked behind him again. Song Chen nodded obediently and said, "Hello uncle and aunt, hello sister Yang."
"Xiao Chen?" Mrs. Yang said and laughed: "I almost didn't recognize it!"
She had met Song Chen once. When Zhao Jindong got married and Song Chen, she also attended their wedding. At that time, Song Chen was completely different from the young man who looked like a student in front of her.
At that time, Song Chen was wearing a black suit, with flamboyant eyebrows and handsomeness.
Mrs. Zhao got off after putting on her clothes and walked quickly in her high heels: "You guys are here so fast."
When the hostess came out, they had nothing to do. Zhao Jindong was responsible for entertaining Mr. Yang, and Song Chen followed behind him. After they sat down in the living room, he went upstairs.
After a short while, Zhao Jindong and Mr. Yang began to talk about work, such as the policies that just came out in September, and the housing market fluctuations, he couldn't understand them.
It was a mess outside, and he was a little excited and couldn't continue writing the novel. Meng Shi happened to send a video over. The two of them chatted for a few words. Meng Shi said: "I have found a bunch of beautiful girls and handsome guys. Do I want to bring handsome guys?"
"Why don't you bring it? You bring it all."
"Will your dick beat me?"
He was really hesitant because Song Chen especially liked to hook up with handsome guys in front of Zhao Jindong. This time, Song Chen called him to bring more handsome guys and beautiful girls over, and he was worried that Song Chen was trying to anger Zhao Laoer.
"With me here, he dare not."
"Okay, but I don't know a few of these people. If they hook up with people at dinner, I'm not responsible." Some little internet celebrities are very enthusiastic, but they don't come just for the banquet.
After hanging up the video, Song Chen browsed his Moments and found Zhou Yunyun.
Zhou Yunyun and Song Chen are mortal enemies, but they all pay close attention to each other in the circle of friends.
Zhou Yunyun still posted beautiful photos on his Moments, but this time he only showed his side face, the key point was that he was wearing a bright evening dress, revealing his beautiful back.
I have to say that Zhou Yunyun also has capital, with a bulge in front and a bulge in back, and the height of P looks 1.7 meters.
On such a big occasion, according to his understanding of the female supporting role in his writing, she must be a lie. He was still looking forward to it and wanted to see what tricks she would play.
The dinner started in the evening. Except for Mr. Yang and his family who came from afar, the others were all natives in City A and they only came in the evening. Mrs. Zhao called Zhao Xinzhi and asked him to come back after lunch. As a result, before he came back, Zhao Baotao and Zhao Qi had already returned first.
After Zhao Qi said hello to Mr. Yang, he went upstairs. Zhao Baotao sat for a while and went upstairs. After going up, he didn't come down again. He didn't have to think about it and went to find Song Chen.
Zhao Baotao was still carrying a paper bag in his hand, and he didn't know what rare things he brought to Song Chen.
Zhao Jindong looked coldly and waited for Zhao Yun to come back and took Mr. Yang to the tea room to chat. Zhao Jindong then got out and went upstairs. As soon as he walked to the door, he heard Zhao Qi's laughter.
Listening to the sound, Zhao Baotao is also inside.
Zhao Baotao discovered another new thing, a gift box. With a light press, the box opened like a flower, one petal after another, and there were three layers inside and outside. Each layer had a different color. Because it was a flower, Song Chen liked it, so he brought it over. Since he brought the gift box, it was not easy to be empty inside, so he bought Song Chen a green-skinned walnut.
Betting on green skin is a way to play walnuts in Wenhua. The walnuts are wrapped in green skin and they cannot tell the quality. Everyone relies on gambling and will be self-confessed after peeling them off. The three brothers just gambled, but Zhao Qi lost the bet and then laughed.
Zhao Jindong stood at the door for a while, but didn't go in. He turned around and was about to leave when he saw Mrs. Zhao.
Mrs. Zhao wrapped her shawl and came up a few steps, knocked on the door, pushed the door in and said, "There are guests coming from home, but why are they still shriveling in the room? They are rude and come out."
Song Chen saw Zhao Jindong outside the door.
The three of them came out of the room, and Song Chen took a few quick steps and walked with him. Zhao Jindong turned his head and looked at him.
During lunch, Zhao Xinzhi finally came back after three or four urgings. Mrs. Zhao specially arranged for him to sit with Yang Hui.
Zhao Xinzhi seemed to be quite resistant to this meal and said less than usual. Fortunately, with Zhao Baotao and Zhao Qi, both of them were very good at speaking, especially Zhao Baotao, who was the most eloquent.
"I heard that Sister Yang Hui is a postdoctoral fellow." He said: "Is it a holiday now or..."
"I just graduated." Yang Hui said, "I haven't started work yet. My dad wants me to work at our company, but I want to teach at university."
"Girl, teach well." Mrs. Zhao smiled and looked at Zhao Baotao: "You have the nerve to call Huihui Sister, she is half a year younger than you."
"Is that right?" Zhao Baotao said with a smile: "When I heard that she is a postdoctoral fellow, I thought she was older than me."
"My Huihui often skips grades when she is studying." Mrs. Yang said proudly.
"These children in our family are okay," Zhao Yungang said: "None of the others are for studying."
"Xinzhi also studied in a university in the UK," said Mrs. Zhao.
"Is that right?" Yang Hui looked at Zhao Xinzhi: "Which school?"
"My eldest brother is Cambridge." Zhao Qi said.
Mrs. Zhao glanced at him.
"That's not the same school as me, I studied Oxford." Yang Hui said, "But I've been to Cambridge a few times. I like the scenery of your school, and I have also taken a boat trip to the Kang River with my classmates. The Bridge of Sighs and Claire Bridge are really beautiful."
Song Chen thought to himself, are the Kanghe and Bridges she mentioned in Xu Zhimo's "Farewell to Kangqiao"?
As expected, different family and educational backgrounds come from, and the difference in knowledge is big.
He must have more experience around the world if he has the opportunity in the future.
"Then you and my elder brother should have something to talk about." Zhao Baotao said with a smile.
Yang Hui looked at him with a smile, took a sip of red wine and didn't say anything, looked at Zhao Baotao's hand, not wearing a ring.
