Chapter 142: The filial piety of rich people is really simple and crude!
There are three steps to earning face.
The car, the dinner, and the final surprise.
Because there were so many people, we chatted and ate at the same time, and the meal took a full two hours.
But everyone enjoyed it.
Although I felt uncomfortable seeing Xu Yun's family become rich.
But it’s also nice to be able to eat so much delicious seafood for free and drink such good wine.
Zhang Lei's eyes would always look towards his cousin Xu Yun's table from time to time.
There's no way, that table is too dazzling and I can't control my eyes.
There are one man and seven women, and each one is a top beauty with a good figure, good looks, and great temperament.
This configuration can be called a modern Wei Xiaobao!
Which ordinary man in the world would not be envious?
His wife noticed his furtive glance and was so angry that she pinched him several times under the waist.
But every time she pinched me, not long after, she would sneak a peek at her husband again.
In the end, she just didn't care.
Look at it, just look at it casually, you can just look at it anyway.
When you get home at night, you still ask me to go to bed with you!
You'll be in trouble then.
When the dinner was about to end, Yu Xuan saw that the time was almost up and stood up.
When everyone saw her stand up, they knew she had something to say.
Because everyone knows that the role she plays tonight is equivalent to the steward of this birthday party.
She arranged everything.
Yu Xuan smiled and said, "Dear guests, after dinner, our President Xu has prepared an after-dinner show and invites everyone to watch it."
"Program, what program?" Zhang Sujuan asked curiously.
There were surprises one after another tonight.
Yu Xuan smiled and explained: "Auntie, you will know in a moment. This is a surprise specially prepared for you by our President Xu. You will definitely like it."
"Okay, then I'll see what surprise my son has prepared for me."
Zhang Sujuan is filial to her son and is happy for his success today.
"Hmph, what kind of program can there be? It's just a band, singing and dancing."
Zhang Lei said to his wife in a disdainful voice: "Why are you being so mysterious?"
"That's better than having nothing." The woman was still angry because of what happened just now.
Zhang Lei: “…”
At first, everyone thought that this performance would be performed in a box or on the stage of a hotel banquet hall.
I was told that it was in another place and I needed to take a car to get there.
Those who have cars can drive themselves. For those who don’t have cars, Xu Yun said there are cars downstairs and they can choose one at will.
The cars are parked downstairs.
After everyone went downstairs, they were stunned when they saw the luxury cars in front of them.
So many luxury cars gathered together in this small parking lot in front of the hotel, the atmosphere is too strong.
The uncles and aunts saw that in addition to the three cars before, there were three more cars.
A Rolls-Royce, a Bentley GT, and a Porsche 911.
Judging from the license plates, it was obvious that these three cars were driven by the five women who had just arrived.
When Zhang Lei, Zhang Yufei and other young people saw the three cars, they couldn't take their eyes off them.
Because compared with the previous three cars, these three cars are much more appearance-oriented.
Especially the two coupes, their aesthetic tastes are right on their lips.
Yu Xuan continued to arrange people to get on the bus.
Most people consciously got into the two Mercedes-Benz cars, and no one thought of getting into other cars.
A small number of people drove there by themselves.
Yu Xuan has already told everyone the address.
When the two uncles and aunts saw the Rolls-Royce, they decisively gave up the Bentley that had just arrived and chose the latter.
Liang Yan personally served as the driver, and there were exactly five people.
There is no way around it, older people just like this car, it is also widely familiar and they want to experience it.
In this way, people without cars are basically the same.
The remaining three are enough.
Ning Qian got into her car first.
Seeing this, Zhang Yufei couldn't help but walk forward, opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.
Xu warned: "Be careful on the road and pay attention to safety."
"Well, I will."
Ning Qian smiled at him and drove away.
Song Xiaowei was not angry that her position was taken away. She stood quietly beside Xu Yun, waiting to be "assigned".
When Zhang Lei's wife saw Zhang Yufei driving away in the 911, she couldn't resist the temptation and looked at the Continental GT.
Zhang Lei saw this and asked, "What are you doing?"
"I want to try it too." After saying that, he ran over and sat in the passenger seat.
Zhang Lei: “…”
He watched helplessly as his wife abandoned him and got into someone else's luxury car.
Xu Yun looked at Zhang Lei meaningfully and said, "If you want to experience the feeling of driving this car, you can..."
"I have my own car, so I don't need it." Zhang Lei really wanted to try driving a Bentley coupe, but he just couldn't bring himself to do it.
He rejected the idea hypocritically, then drove his car in frustration.
Before comparison, my Audi was considered a luxury car for an ordinary family.
After comparing it with real luxury cars, my car is just a broken Audi!
I feel embarrassed to follow others.
Seeing that the other party was not going, Su Mu smiled and prepared to drive.
Xu Yun called her and reminded her, "Go slowly on the road and be careful."
"Why, are you worried that your sister-in-law might get hurt?"
Xu Yun said aggrievedly: "I was worried that you would get hurt."
"You have a conscience."
Su Mu couldn't help but smile and said, "I'll be your driver for free today."
So she drove away with Zhang Lei's wife, and Zhang Lei followed in his broken Audi.
All of a sudden, most people had left.
Xu Yun looked at his mother, Song Xiaowei, Yu Xuan, and Chen Xin who were left, and said with a smile, "Let's go. We have just the right number of people in the car."
So Yu Xuan acted as the driver, Xu Yun sat in the passenger seat, Chen Xin, Song Xiaowei, and Zhang Sujuan sat in the back seat.
Driving the white Bentley, he sped towards his destination.
Song Xiaowei didn't even mention how nervous she was at the moment.
I was actually sitting in the same car with my aunt.
On the way, Zhang Sujuan took the initiative to chat with her and asked about some basic information and personal situation.
What is your age? Are you single? What do you like? And so on.
Song Xiaowei answered truthfully.
When asked about work, Zhang Sujuan had good intentions and asked, "What program do you host? I usually like to watch TV when I have nothing to do. I'll go see you."
"Um, Auntie."
Song Xiaowei said awkwardly: "I just joined the TV station and I am currently a host of a music radio station."
"It's okay, that's awesome too."
Zhang Sujuan smiled and said, "What time period do you broadcast? I can be your audience."
"FM 98.8, late night slot, from midnight to 2am."
"And me, I can do that, too."
Chen Xin laughed and said, "I code until late at night every day, which just fits my schedule.
Also, can I request a song then?"
"We have a hotline."
Song Xiaowei smiled and said, “But you can send it to me directly, so that you can jump the queue and I can help you post it.”
"Thank you."
After hearing Song Xiaowei's work arrangement, Xu Yun turned around and said, "You should work for a while first, mainly to get familiar with the work environment and adapt to it.
When you feel it's about time, I'll see if I can find someone to let you move."
"It's okay, take your time."
Song Xiaowei said confidently: "I believe that with my ability, I will appear on the big screen sooner or later, so that Auntie, you can see me."
"Yes, girls need to be confident."
Zhang Sujuan smiled and said, "Auntie is rooting for you, keep going!"
"Thank you, Auntie. I will try my best."
On the Porsche 911.
Zhang Yufei looked at the urban beauty Ning Qian beside her and said with some envy: "Ms. Ning, I really envy you for being able to drive such a good car at such a young age."
"It's okay. This is all because of Xu Yun."
Ning Qian smiled and replied: "Without him, I wouldn't be able to drive such a nice car."
"why would you say so?"
"Because he bought this car for me."
Zhang Yufei: “…”
This sports car was actually bought for her by her cousin!!!
Could it be that she...
Zhang Yufei thought of a possibility and asked tentatively, "Are you my cousin's girlfriend?"
"No." Ning Qian denied with a smile: "I'm just a receptionist in your brother's company. He bought me a car just to make it convenient for me to go to and from get off work."
Zhang Yufei: (⊙o⊙)…
A company receptionist, her cousin bought her a sports car worth more than one million!
The reason is just to make it easier for her to commute to work!
What a crazy thing my cousin did!
What a divine treatment!
My cousin is too rich.
She suddenly wanted to work at her cousin's company!
The same story is happening on the Continental GT on the other side.
The more Zhang Lei's wife looked at the car, the more she liked it. She hoped that Zhang Lei could buy a car like this in the future.
She asked curiously, "Miss Su, how much is your car?"
"I'm not sure, probably around 300 million."
so expensive.
With the salary she and Zhang Lei earn, they can never afford it in this lifetime!
“This car is great.”
Zhang Lei's wife sighed: "I wish I could have one too."
"Isn't it simple?"
Su Mu smiled and replied, "Just ask Xu Yun to buy one for you and your husband."
"Millions, not tens of dollars. Miss Su, stop joking."
Zhang Lei's wife said awkwardly: "No one's money comes from the wind. Even the most generous person would not give away a car worth millions of dollars at once."
"No way?"
Su Mu asked in confusion: "He bought this car for me."
"what?"
Zhang Lei's wife was surprised when she heard this: "You said that this car was bought for you by your cousin Xu?"
"You can't say he bought it for me."
Su Mu explained: "It should be said that he bought it and then gave it to me to open."
“……”Zhang Lei’s wife.
That’s exaggerated, okay!!!
You buy a car worth millions and instead of driving it yourself, you give it to someone else?
If the two of them didn't have a special relationship, no ordinary person could do this.
Zhang Lei's wife seemed to have thought of a possibility and asked tentatively, "Miss Su, are you cousin Xu's girlfriend?"
Su Mu denied: "No, just ordinary friends."
"..."
Zhang Lei’s wife’s spiritual world was shocked!
Turns out they were just ordinary friends.
This unscientific!
How about when I get home in the evening, I talk to my husband and ask him to buy one for our family?
If outsiders can buy it, then my family and he are cousins after all, so it should be possible too.
It’s a pity that my husband and I were suspicious of her before.
I didn’t expect that he is really rich!
Soon, all six cars arrived at the viewing location - Return Impression.
After two days of preparation, the stage in the center of the water has been completely completed.
All staff and security personnel are in place.
Zhang Lei and others who arrived at the scene were a little confused when they saw the stage surrounded by many people.
Isn’t this the performance venue for Return Impression?
A few days ago, the whole county was talking about the fact that there would be a grand and unprecedented fireworks show at Guilai Impression tonight.
If they weren't going to attend Zhang Sujuan's birthday party tonight, they would have come to join in the fun a long time ago.
Could it be that the surprise that Xu Yun arranged for his mother, the performance that everyone was going to watch, was this one today?
A bit disappointed!
I thought it was some unique performance, but it turned out to be just a county show.
But they arrived so late that they couldn't squeeze in at all, and there was no good seat to watch.
But the next second, Yu Xuan came back after leaving for a while.
Several government workers were also brought along.
Yu Xuan said to everyone, "Everyone follow the government staff and go in through the special passage. There are the best viewing spots arranged for everyone."
Everyone: "..."
Wow, I actually have this privilege!!!
In an instant, everyone's understanding of Xu Yun changed drastically!
So, under the envious sunshine of the people around them, they easily passed through the crowded crowd and went straight to the front row of the core area, each with a chair.
Especially the two uncles.
When they saw the row of people sitting in front of them, they were shocked.
As a state-owned enterprise, and two people from a government department, they can still be recognized at a glance. They are the first, second and third in command in the county.
There are also some top leaders of important units.
It was incredible that I and others could sit behind them.
A leader in my uncle's unit accidentally turned around and saw my uncle behind him, and was a little surprised.
He took the initiative and greeted with a smile: "Chief Zhang, you are here too?"
"Bureau Li."
My uncle laughed and shouted, "I didn't expect to see you here."
"It's a coincidence."
Director Li smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Xu, who organized this performance, is a relative of yours."
“……”Uncle.
What does Director Li mean by this?
Mr. Xu?
Could it be that this performance was organized by Xu Yun, not the county?
If this performance was really organized by Xu Yun with his own money, and he was able to invite all the main leaders of the county, that would be such an honor.
This is not something that can be solved with money alone.
The uncle was so shocked that he turned around and looked at his elder brother.
The eldest brother was in a similar mood as him at the moment.
Not only is Xu Yun rich, but he also has strong connections within the system!
In fact, they were overthinking this.
The main leaders of these counties were able to come because, firstly, the performance itself was rare and large-scale, and they wanted to see it;
Second, this performance is part of intangible cultural heritage, and the county can promote it as a political achievement.
Third, for such a large event, they are watching on site, so if any accidents occur, people can control the development of the situation in the first time.
You know, the fire brigade on duty not far away is guarding and ready to take action at any time!
The protagonist of the incident, Xu Yun, arrived at the scene and brought his mother and other women to a specific viewing platform.
This is a makeshift structure.
The viewing position is better than the first row for county leaders.
There is no one else here, only they can come.
As the time came, the county leaders began to speak, and then the host began to introduce the performance.
Only then did everyone understand.
This is not a fireworks show at all, but a skill show called iron flower making.
Performers take turns using flower sticks to hit iron liquid with a temperature of over a thousand degrees onto the shed, forming iron flowers more than ten meters high. The scene is spectacular, thrilling and exciting.
But we have only heard about it and seen it on TV, but have never experienced it in person.
Finally, the host said: “Tonight’s performance and event are fully sponsored by a young man named Xu Yun.
Thank him, and wish Auntie a happy birthday, good health, and all the best! ”
Listening to the host's words, Zhang Sujuan turned to look at her son in surprise and felt a little moved.
"Did you really pay for this iron flower?"
"Correct."
Xu Yun nodded and put his arm around his mother's shoulders. He was even taller than her.
He smiled and said, "Don't you want to see the iron flowers? Today is your birthday, I will let you see them all at once! Don't blink."
As soon as his words fell.
On the dark underwater stage, the first iron flower bloomed in the dark night with dazzling golden molten iron like fireworks.
Very beautiful.
Then came the second one, the third one...
More and more masters joined in. With the performances of 88 masters, the sky was filled with golden iron flowers blooming continuously in the night sky.
The masters under the iron flowers move in and out freely with their bare chests, without any fear of getting burned.
It gives people a strong visual impact and the scene is shocking.
Except Zhang Sujuan and Xu Yun.
Su Mu, Li Jinshu, Liang Yan and seven others standing on both sides were stunned by the scene before them.
In the past, everyone had only seen iron flower performances on TV, but now after seeing it with their own eyes, the shock it brings is something that cannot be achieved by visualizing it.
If you have never actually seen a iron flower performance, you won’t know why it is called one of the national intangible cultural heritages.
The relatives in the audience were shocked by the iron flower performance and also by Xu Yun's generosity.
In order to give my mother a birthday surprise, I actually invited so many iron flower making masters to perform for her.
By the way, the people of the whole county were invited to watch such a shocking scene.
The filial piety of rich people is really simple and crude!
Apart from relatives, the other people who came to watch, although they didn't know who Xu Yun was, could feel his strength.
A simple and crude kind of filial piety bought with money.
Everyone wants to have such filial piety, and everyone wants to be Xu Yun, but no one can be Xu Yun.
At least Zhang Lei has become seriously autistic at this moment.
The person whom I once looked down upon has now become someone I cannot reach!
He saw the gap between himself and the other person, a gap that could never be made up in a lifetime.
If they meet again, his previous sense of superiority will have left him, replaced by a deep sense of powerlessness.
When he thought about what he said in the supermarket garage this morning and the words of comfort the other party said, he felt so ashamed and angry.
At that time, he must have looked at himself like a clown.
