Chapter 627 Prepare for the wedding
As a man in his early thirties, this may be a normal thing to prepare for a family and start a business. As the saying goes, a man should get married as a woman should get married, so the news that he is going to get married not only did not cause similar surprises, but also received a lot of complaints.
Gao Jianbin is an orphan whose parents died. The villagers in the village treat him as their own children. The elders’ wishes are simple, just to see this day. He has been reluctant to get married, which has become the heart disease of many elderly people in the village. There is a traditional concept in the countryside. No matter how old you are, you cannot become a real adult without getting married.
Since it was held in Qingyuan Village, it was inevitable to bother his friends who had grown up together. Although these people lived in the village, no matter what the situation was, Gao Jianbin regarded them as his relatives and brothers.
After receiving the call, Zhang Wenliang even said lightly: "You should get married long ago. Look at me, even your children are running around the ground, and you should go to kindergarten next year! As the saying goes, it is better to be unfilial to have three no descendants. Your Gao family is the only one. Hurry up, have a child early after getting married, and the elderly can rest in peace even under the ground."
Gao Jianbin said, "What era is this? You still believe in this set of the theory of "Mencius". I think you were fooled by the ancients. It's also a big deal for Grandpa Zhang. What kind of Four Books and Five Classics are you doing? "
Zhang Wenliang said carelessly: "It is our duty to have children. If we don't want children, how can humans continue to reproduce? Okay, if you don't talk about these things with you, just say you want us to do something, right?"
Gao Jianbin smiled and said, "You are all married. Do you still use my new hand to teach you how to do it? For example, if you need to decorate your new house at home. Just be simple. I guess you can go back in just one week at most. Don't delay the renovation before it is finished." Zhang Wenliang said with a smile: "This is very simple. I asked the decoration team to stop other work first and do it for you within three days. You don't know how many days you stay at home. It's useless to clean up too well."
Gao Jianbin said: "We need to prepare more kitchens. This wedding banquet is divided into two parts. One is the place where the chefs in the hotel cook. The other is the place where the chefs in our village cook. All dishes are mainly based on the customs of our village. There are not enough people in the village to cook, so we go to the neighboring village to spend money to invite them. Those who come to attend the wedding banquet don't care about the delicacies, but they are like ordinary fried chicken stewed dishes. They definitely like them. They have to fry the chicken, fish and meat in advance. Since it is the main dish of the wedding banquet, there must be a lot of required quantity."
Zhang Wenliang said, "You have to tell me how many guests are here, so I can calculate what I need." Gao Jianbin thought for a while and said, "I have to set up fifty or sixty tables of large tables. However, in order to prevent accidents, I have to prepare according to the materials of one hundred tables. I asked Yueying and Jiaojiao to purchase, and then report a number to me."
Zhang Wenliang said in surprise: "Good guy, a hundred tables, a thousand benches alone, and plates, dishes, dishes, and chopsticks are even more amazing." Gao Jianbin said: "Ordinary white porcelain bowls are only seven or eight cents per, ordinary porcelain plates cost at most five yuan per, and a stool is only ten yuan per, which doesn't cost much. You drive a truck to the wholesale market to pull a cart. These are things that can be reused. When the wedding banquet is over, I will divide them from house to house. If I am just myself, I will never use them for several lifetimes."
Zhang Wenliang smiled and said, "Do we still buy the vegetables used for wedding banquets? The organic vegetables sent from Meixingqiao Town that year you left were for half a year for the whole village to eat, and the taste was really good."
Gao Jianbin said, "That's simple. If I call, I will naturally give it to you. You need to count the number and types of useful things in advance. It doesn't matter if there are too many. You must not eat enough. That would be too embarrassing. Please contact me as well as the best classmates in our class in high school and declare that you don't have to give me gifts. After all, I didn't go there when they got married, nor did I give me gifts. It's not a good effect to receive gifts at this time. If you are willing to come, find a place to sit down and eat something. If you don't come, don't force me."
Zhang Wenliang said hesitantly: "Do you still notify Donghai City?" Gao Jianbin knew who he was talking about, and thought about it and said: "I'll call Linlin later. She can just come by herself. I don't want to see anyone else."
Zhang Wenliang said, "Jianbin, according to the customs of our Qingyuan Village, you have to find an elder to visit Li Li's house before getting married. No one comes there, and you don't have people close to blood. This etiquette is a difficult time." Gao Jianbin said, "My father has an aunt. According to his seniority, I should call her the old lady. When I leave, I ask you to inquire about it. Have you forgotten this?"
Zhang Wenliang smiled and said, "I really can't remember if you don't mention it. I've found out about it. In Luoqing Town, Qinghua City, a county-level city in Qingtai City, your aunt and uncle are still alive, but they are almost ninety years old. They have two uncles and two aunts at home, and seven of your cousins, which are considered prosperous. Strictly speaking, your aunt's family conditions are very average, and I didn't point out that you are the former deputy secretary of the Haizhou Municipal Party Committee and the executive vice mayor. You will deal with this relationship when you go by yourself."
Gao Jianbin sighed and said, "I also feel guilty about my aunt's family. I have been busy with work for so many years and have never been to her. If it weren't for my aunt's support, my father wouldn't have had the chance to go to college, so I wouldn't have appeared. When I go back this time, I will make a special trip to Luoqing Town to compensate her family well. Isn't there a saying in my hometown? Isn't it a marriage for generations to come."
Gao Xuelin seemed particularly excited after receiving the call and said, "Brother, why haven't you called me for so long? I thought you forgot me!" Gao Jianbin smiled and said, "How is that possible? What's the point you and Fang Haiyang are now? Have you ever thought about getting married?"
Gao Xuelin said: "Haiyang is very busy now. Since he cooperated with the Commission for Discipline Inspection to investigate the leadership of the Management Committee two years ago, the Municipal Party Committee has removed several main leaders. Although he is still at the deputy department level, he serves as the director of the Management Committee. The Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government attach great importance to the Economic and Technological Development Zone. Sometimes I don't see him once a week. Either invite those investors to dinner or attend negotiation meetings. Anyway, we are all very young, and we will talk about it two years later. I am now the head of the Treasury Department and now I have become a deputy section-level cadre."
Gao Jianbin knew exactly what was going on. Zhang Guowen was the secretary of the municipal party committee. This situation was expected and said, "It's better to get married later, but your brother, I'm going to get married. You asked for leave from the unit in the past two days and went to Qingyuan Village to help me. I guess I won't be able to go back in a week." Gao Xuelin said in surprise: "What you said is true? That's great! I'll say hello to the leader immediately and go to Qingyuan Village tomorrow!"
However, when he said this, he paused for a moment, and Gao Xuelin said again: "Can Brother Jianming and his sister-in-law go with this matter? There are multiple people and multiple helpers, and it is not good to see if the family members have not come forward."
Gao Jianbin said lightly: "If you want, call him and his wife. He is doing well in the Investment Promotion Bureau, right?" Gao Xuelin smiled and said: "From the clerk of the street office, he was the head of the comprehensive department, and now he is a section-level cadre. With Secretary Zhang as his backing, he was very popular in front of the bureau leaders. The father-in-law of Brother Jianming originally did not agree with the marriage between the two, but his market continued to rise. He urged to get married last winter, for fear that Brother Jianming would not want the girl from the Liu family."
Gao Jianbin shook his head slightly, and there is an old saying that when a person becomes a pride, people are often so realistic. Although he himself has no intention to change all this, he has invisibly affected the life trajectory of many people.
After hanging up the phone, he called Guo Yongjian again. The two were classmates and former comrades-in-arms, so their relationship was naturally extraordinary. Guo Yongjian was very happy to receive his call and said, "I haven't contacted me for so long, why do I have time today?"
Gao Jianbin smiled and said, "I will go back to my hometown in Haizhou to get married in a few days. I will say hello to you first. Remember to have a wedding banquet at that time." Guo Yongjian laughed and said, "You are finally willing to let go of your single life and enter the siege of marriage. No problem, I will definitely go there at that time. I am still planning to call you in the past two days. It's time for the classmates in our class to have a party. Just take advantage of your opportunity to come back to give a notice. When you come to the provincial capital, you will tell me in advance. I will tell you that it's been a long time since we met."
Gao Jianbin was also a little moved when he heard the party. When he was in Haizhou, this group of classmates from the Provincial Party School helped him a lot and said, "It will take me four or five days to deal with other things in Kyoto. You will be able to inform everyone in a week and save me from sending invitations by myself. Do you know that the current real-powered leader in Qingtai City is our classmate?"
Guo Yongjian said, "What, do you have something to deal with? I can do it without anyone else, just tell me directly." Gao Jianbin smiled and said, "It's better to take charge of the county magistrate now. This is the law of the officialdom. If you want to take action, then the matter will be a big deal. I have a relative in Qinghua City, Qingtai City. I haven't heard of it for many years. I've only found it now. After returning to Haizhou, I'm going to take some time to go there. I know who is here and I'll borrow any help from him when I encounter something."
Guo Yongjian said: "This is too simple. After Secretary Ji Changrong was transferred, the new member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee Tan Jiaping belonged to the faction of Secretary Jin. Mayor Lu Chengde is our classmate. If you have any questions, please contact him first. If it really doesn't work, then ask Deputy Secretary Zhang Wenhua to say hello to Tan Jiaping. It's not that I brag, there are not many problems that can be difficult for us students in Nanjiang Province!"
Although what Guo Yongjian said was a bit big, it is indeed true. A training class for provincial and ministerial reserve cadres is a gathering of elites in the province. People who have come out of it have a great future. Through the development in recent years, the worst student is now at the department level, with several special talents, and has entered the ranks of vice-provincial and ministerial leaders, just like Guo Yongjian and Lu Chengde. The mayor is the top leader of the government and has influenced only second only to the secretary of the municipal party committee. If he can't even handle any trivial matters, he can kill him and cannot afford to lose this person.
Gao Jianbin laughed and said, "It's not as serious as you said. I just want to give my relatives some compensation and help. Lao Lu is a man with deep background and great energy. His wrists and scheming are also outstanding among his classmates. There will be no problem finding him to come forward."
His ears started to hurt when he called. Gao Jianbin put down his cell phone and just as he thought of walking around the yard for two rounds, the doorbell rang. He looked at the monitor. It turned out that it was Zhang Wenhua and Zhang Jinxuan and his daughter. He hurried to the front yard to open the door.
After bringing the two of them to the living room, Zhang Wenhua smiled and said, "I heard that you went to hold a single farewell ceremony with Xu Yang and the others last night?" Gao Jianbin's face was still unchanged and his heart was still beating. He replied, "It's true that I'm not very familiar with these Kyoto circles. They were all arranged by Brother Fu and Brother Shao."
Zhang Wenhua said with relief: "It seems that you have completely integrated with them, otherwise you would not have received such high-standard treatment." After saying this, he changed his mind and said: "I also heard that you and Tan Sufei from Tan's family had a fierce conflict in the reception hall, splashing her tea on her face. Yu Hongzhe was also present and was slapped by Tan Sufei. It is rumored that this conflict was secretly provoked by him. Tell me the truth, what is the truth? It is related to your sister's lifelong happiness."
Gao Jianbin did not hide the slightest, and told the father and daughter in detail about the incident that happened last night. Zhang Wenhua had not expressed his opinion yet. Zhang Jinxuan said furiously: "It's so shameless that he deserves to be slapped in the face. He is so shameless. He openly messing around with that kind of slutty girl, putting the Zhang family and me in what situation? Tan Sufei is the eldest lady of the Tan family. Although she is not a good reputation in the Kyoto circle, she is said to have a very indecent private life, but he follows such a person, servile like a slave. In the end, not only did he not take any advantage, but also lost his face in public. Why did I get blind at the beginning and actually fall in love with such a person!"
Zhang Wenhua said calmly: "Jinxuan, you don't have to be angry about someone like Yu Hongzhe. Anyway, there will be no chance to continue dating between you and him in the future. Otherwise, you go shopping with your sister-in-law. I have something different from your brother Jianbin."
Zhang Jinxuan didn't catch a cold about the officialdom, so she called Li Li very happily. After knowing their exact location, she left the Gao family. The driver of the Zhang family was waiting outside, and it was very convenient to go wherever she wanted.
After her daughter left, Zhang Wenhua lit a cigarette and said seriously: "I am here to say to you this time. The elders of the Tan family greeted me this morning, hoping that the incident that happened in the noble manor would end here and not continue to expand. The Tan family promised not to cause trouble for you, and you should not find a follow-up account. Although Tan Sufei was wrong, if you splashed tea on her face, it would be offset."
Gao Jianbin said: "Of course there is no problem here. I can't afford to provoke a big family like the Tan family. However, this woman, Su Fei, will not be so simple and just give up. I can tell from her words and deeds."
Zhang Wenhua said: "You are all very sensitive in identities and the destructive power caused is also very strong. If a fierce collision occurs between several families because of this small matter, it will have an impact on a stable and harmonious situation. The senior management will never allow such a situation to occur. If Tan Sufei uses the family's relationship network to retaliate against you in private, it will violate the rules of the game. Then we can become famous and work together to put pressure on the Tan family. All you need to do is wait and endure. If the other party does not take action, you must not take action first."
Gao Jianbin nodded and said, "Don't worry, Secretary Zhang, I'm not interested in fighting with that kind of woman."
Zhang Wenhua said again: "You are the secretary of the municipal party committee and mayor of Linghe City. You are in a period of rapid change. You cannot stay outside for a long time. In addition, you have to go back to your hometown in Haizhou to hold a wedding, so after several leaders nodded, the specific date of the wedding banquet is scheduled for noon tomorrow." Gao Jianbin said in surprise: "This is too fast, I have not prepared anything!"
Zhang Wenhua smiled and said, "No need to make too much trouble. Xu Yang and the others will come to help you tomorrow morning, and they are also the driver of the convoy. In addition, Wang Xiangmin also came here, with enough manpower. The wedding process is also very simple, especially some old leaders, who are in poor health and have strict restrictions on eating. When toasting, they can just express it. Most of them take this opportunity to meet you, and by the way, they can chat with old comrades and friends. Besides, when they are old, they need to rest more, and the time is controlled to be about two hours. Shenghua, the national hotel, has long said hello, and you don't need to be careful."
Then he said earnestly: "Jianbin, the ability of so many leaders to attend your wedding banquet is enough to show the recognition and appreciation of the senior management for you, and it is also a kind of heavy trust and expectation. Many leaders who are leading cadres dare not even dream of it. With them as backing you, you don't need to have any concerns. You can use all your wisdom and hard work to use the implementation of the national western development strategy to completely change the economic outlook of Linghe City and let the people live a prosperous and happy life. This is the greatest reward for the leaders. Do you understand what I said?"
