"It's not that I'm outdated, it's that you're exaggerating." Xu Xiangqian shook his head. "I can accept that the other party's conditions are worse than mine, but I can't accept that they're so much worse."

"Why can't you accept it? Do you still need to marry someone else? Besides, since they are all inferior, what difference does it make whether they are much worse?" Li Xu asked.

"This isn't a matter of marriage, but happiness. Children from ordinary families rarely have the same values ​​as those from wealthy families. Second cousin, what you said before is so fitting here. You said the front door, and he said the hip joint. How can two people like that be happy together?"

"Whether he is happy or not is like drinking water, only he knows whether it is hot or cold. As long as he likes it, he will feel happy even if his ideas are different. If he doesn't like it, he will not feel happy even if the other person is the child of the world's richest man." Li Xu argued.

Xu Xiangqian thought about it, then mused, "I still think a marriage without consistent values ​​won't last long. Even if you feel happy, it will only be short-lived."

"That's right. Even if you share the same ideals, a marriage isn't guaranteed to last." Li Xu suddenly laughed, then waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about something else. Cousin, did you get the car import permit that Qian Jin promised you?"

"I got it."

"Did he ask you why you didn't go home with us for the New Year?"

"What do you mean by 'at that time'? He came to ask me before the Chinese New Year even started." Xu Xiangqian complained, "You don't know, since the Chinese New Year, he has brought people to my house every day to wish me a happy new year. It almost annoyed me to death."

Hearing this, the Li brothers couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Li Xu then whispered, "I'll take you back for the New Year this year." He then raised his voice and said, "Cousin, let's gather the hotel security personnel and have them go with Pang Dong and his wife to find a chef. If you go to Hong Kong to buy a car for your cousin's wife, you can also buy Pang Dong's car as well. We can buy the rest of the cars later."

Whether it is because he will become the top tycoon in Hong Kong next year or because Li Ju is getting married next year, in a word, Xu Xiangqian will definitely appear in Tang County next year.

If you want to put on a show, you have to do it in full. You have to let the two families get to know each other in advance, so that when they meet, outsiders won't have the impression that they are not familiar with each other.

The local government can provide one-stop service for hotel construction, but they will not take care of the hotel's employment.

Therefore, the hotel owner has to find the hotel chef himself.

Li Xu wanted to find a few culinary masters to support the hotel, but such people are rare in Shenzhen at present. So far, he has only heard of the name of one culinary master, and the other party works in a public institution.

There is no other choice but to look for a master chef elsewhere.

Li Xu didn't want to run around, so he decided to hand over this important task to Pang Dong, the future head of the hotel.

As for the hotel's security personnel, they were recruited to protect Pang Dong and his wife on the road.

Xu Xiangqian's eyes suddenly widened, and then an expression of extreme excitement appeared on his face.

Fortunately, he hadn't lost his mind yet. He knew there was a bodyguard standing nearby. He forced himself to lower his voice and asked, "Second cousin, you didn't lie to me, did you?"

"I'm not lying to you. Come back with us this year, and I'll have bodyguards stay in Wuhan."

After receiving a positive answer, Xu Xiangqian was so happy that his back teeth showed. "Great, great, I can finally meet my uncle and aunt. Tell me what they like so I can prepare gifts for them."

"For them, everything is the same. You just need to prepare whatever you want."

Xu Xiangqian was stunned. "Is this true?"

Li Xu was a little amused and said, "Of course it's true. Do you think I would be reluctant to let you spend that little money for the gift?"

Li Jiakang and his wife like to see their children being filial, their grandchildren being around, their family being harmonious, and their family business being prosperous. They have no pursuit of material things.

Xu Xiangqian thought about it carefully and found that it was true. The cost of buying gifts was not a big deal for any of the four people present.

He scratched his cheek and said helplessly, "Okay, I'll think about it."

There is a classic saying that goes, I may not receive, but you cannot not give.

The problem Xu Xiangqian is facing now is very similar to this one. Li Jiakang and his wife may not care about the gifts, but he cannot just give them a gift casually.

It's a matter of attitude.

Seeing him like this, Li Ping was amused. "Cousin, it's only the beginning of the year. You don't have to be so anxious. There's plenty of time for you to think about it."

"Cousin, I would say you don't have to feel embarrassed at all. Just buy them two big gold bracelets each and praise them for their good housekeeping and parenting skills." Li Chen followed.

"No, no, it would seem that I'm insincere." Xu Xiangqian shook his head like a rattle.

At this moment, a bright idea suddenly flashed through his mind. He quickly stopped shaking his head and said excitedly, "Cousin, cousin, how is the preparation for our sister's dowry going?"

Li Ping and the others were stunned, not knowing why he suddenly asked about this. "Not ready yet, what's wrong?"

Xu Xiangqian did not answer, but continued to ask, "Can you tell me what dowry you plan to prepare for her?"

Although Li Xu was confused, he still answered, "Company shares, cars, houses, bodyguards, a fleet of cars, cash, and some miscellaneous items."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiangqian suddenly became even more excited, "Second cousin, are you sure you've told me everything important?"
