Chapter 445: Not Very Familiar
Li Jingchu understood Jiang Ziqing's concerns, but Zhou Yong was ordering food, and if he interrupted him as a son, it would firstly show his lack of education, and secondly, it would make it seem like Jiang Changfeng couldn't afford the meal!
Jiang Ziqing also realized the problem. For a moment, she felt helpless and gradually lowered her head.
Li Jingchu held Jiang Ziqing's hand tightly, and the two looked at each other again.
The moment Zhou Yong closed the menu, he happened to see the expressions of Li Jingchu and Jiang Ziqing, which made him purse his lips.
"Director Jiang, I'll just order these dishes, and you can order the rest as you like..."
As he said this, Zhou Yong handed the menu to Jiang Changfeng.
"What would you like to eat?"
The Jiang family was casual. Jiang Changfeng glanced at the prices of the dishes ordered by Zhou Yong and his heart was bleeding.
Jiang Changfeng only ordered two dishes and handed the menu to others.
Xie Kun ordered one dish, and the others ordered a few dishes symbolically. For fifteen people, they ordered a total of sixteen dishes.
The waiter left the box with the order menu and a smile on his face. Jiang Changfeng and Zhou Yong started chatting casually.
Zhou Yong is knowledgeable and can keep up with whatever topic Jiang Changfeng talks about.
"If it were up to us, we would send Ziqing to study abroad, but Ziqing has something on her mind, so she doesn't want to go abroad..."
Jiang Changfeng’s meaning was very clear, Li Jingchu had ruined Jiang Ziqing’s future.
Since the mid-1980s, there has been a wave of people going abroad in China, and the trend has been intensifying to date.
How many people try every possible means to go abroad. Some even use their marriage as a bargaining chip to obtain the identity of a sea turtle. There are also a group of people who even go as far as sneaking abroad in order to go abroad.
Zhou Yong glanced at Jiang Ziqing calmly, "It's a good thing to be able to study abroad. When they return to China, they will be talents that all major companies will compete for. If possible, they can study abroad together, and I will pay for the expenses..."
Li Jingchu had no plans to go abroad, so Zhou Yong had no intention of sending his son abroad.
If Li Jingchu wanted to go abroad, it would just be a matter of a word from him.
Jiang Changfeng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Going abroad is not that simple, and every country has its own requirements for foreigners..."
Some countries require a certain amount of deposits in the bank to prove that you have been able to support yourself in the past and will not become a burden to that country.
However, some countries require relatives to live there for a long time or be invited by local citizens before applying for a visa.
In short, no matter which country you go to, it is not an easy thing, and it is very difficult to get a visa.
Zhou Yong smiled faintly: "As long as the children want to go abroad, I can naturally let them go."
Zhou Yong was not bragging when he said this, but it did not sound that way to his family members.
After hearing what Zhou Yong said, Xie Kun couldn't help but interrupt: "Could it be that you have relatives abroad?"
In Xie Kun's opinion, Zhou Yong's family are all from rural areas and it is impossible for them to have relatives abroad.
Before Zhou Yong could speak, Li Caiyun smiled and said, "You know what, my sister-in-law and my daughter are both abroad!"
Xie Kun didn't believe it: "I wonder which country or city they are in?"
Li Caiyun told the story calmly and Xie Kun immediately shut up.
Zhou Yong glanced at his wife and a smile appeared in his eyes.
Jiang Ziqing's mother, Xiao Pei, was surprised and asked, "Your eldest child is studying abroad?"
Xiao Pei heard from Jiang Ziqing that elder sister Li Jingchu studied medicine, but she didn't know that Zhou Kexin went abroad for further studies.
Li Caiyun nodded, a look of pride gradually emerging on her face, and told Xiao Pei about Zhou Kexin's general situation.
Jiang Changfeng listened to Li Caiyun's words and admired the couple from the bottom of his heart. It was not easy to cultivate three university students in the rural area.
There was a knock on the door and several waiters came in carrying dishes, interrupting the conversation between Li Caiyun and Xiao Pei.
The dishes were placed on the table one by one, and suddenly a cry of surprise came from the door: "Brother Zhou?"
Zhou Yong looked in the direction of the voice and met Wan Shengli's eyes.
The next second Wan Shengli laughed loudly and strode into the box in a military uniform.
"Brother Zhou, as I was walking by, I thought I was seeing things, so I turned back and realized it was really you..."
Zhou Yong didn't expect to meet Wan Shengli here. It could only be said that it was such a coincidence.
"Sister-in-law, you are here too?"
Li Caiyun smiled and nodded: "Are you here on a business trip? Or are you here with your family?"
Wan Shengli's face was full of smiles: "While on a business trip, I brought my family to visit my grandfather..."
Li Caiyun was very happy when she heard it: "Where is Yaya?"
Wan Rong is in the next box with Kong Qiaoyun and the Wan family!
Wan Shengli patted Li Jingchu on the shoulder and said, "Do you want to join your uncle in the army for a few years?"
He always wanted the brothers Li Jingchu and Li Jingen to join the army, but unfortunately they were not interested in it.
Li Jing rejected Wan Shengli's kindness at the dinner, which made the Jiang family look at each other.
"Brother Zhou, you guys go ahead and do your work. When you're done, come find us next door..."
Everyone at the table knew without hesitation that Zhou Yong and his wife were in trouble. Wan Shengli did have some foresight.
Zhou Yong and Li Caiyun agreed, Wan Shengli and the Jiang family nodded politely, and then he left.
After Wan Shengli left, the atmosphere in the box changed.
Why?
That was because of the sudden change in atmosphere caused by Wan Shengli wearing a military uniform.
Jiang Changfeng cleared his throat and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Brother Zhou has such a wide range of friends. He even knows the top leader of the provincial military region so well..."
Zhou Yong couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "It's not that we are very familiar with each other, we just know each other."
Jiang Changfeng didn't believe what he said, and neither did the other people in the Jiang family.
If it was really as Zhou Yong said, Wan Shengli would not have come in and greeted the couple, and Li Caiyun would not have asked about those things.
The most important thing is that Jiang Changfeng's working environment often interacts with people in the military, which gives him a good understanding of military figures.
Although Wan Shengli was not familiar with him, Jiang Changfeng had a certain understanding of Wan Shengli.
Jiang Changfeng was a smart man. Seeing that Zhou Yong was unwilling to talk more about Wan Shengli, he simply changed the subject.
After filling the glass with wine, Jiang Changfeng just picked up the glass when the door of the box was knocked again.
With a creaking sound——
A little head poked in, and after seeing Li Caiyun, Zhou Yong, and Li Jingchu, Wan Rong ran in with a smile.
"Father, I miss you so much..."
The little girl Wan Rong rushed to Zhou Yong as soon as she came in.
Zhou Yong held her on his lap, and Li Caiyun couldn't help but touch her little head.
In the past few years, Wan Rong would stay at the Li family for a while during the winter and summer vacations, so the couple had a certain affection for her.
Kong Qiaoyun followed at this time. She nodded to the Jiang family with an apologetic look on her face, and then said with a smile: "Brother Zhou, sister-in-law, I'm really sorry. This girl knew you were next door, and I couldn't stop her..."
As she turned around, Wan Rong sneaked over.
The mischievous Wan Rong hid in Zhou Yong's arms, obviously not wanting to go back with Kong Qiaoyun.
Zhou Yong smiled and said softly: "Let Yaya stay!"
