Chapter 341 I Can’t Go Beyond My Big Brother
As expected, everyone was shocked. The only sound in the whole hall was Chen Ying's "ba ba" sound, and no one else was saying a word.
It was a long time after Chen Ying finished speaking that exclamations began to emanate one after another. “Oh my god, a female factory manager is so amazing!”
"This is the first time I've seen a woman as a factory manager!"
"That's right, I've never heard of it before, and he's so young."
The people sitting at one table turned their heads to look at Wen Tang, while those sitting at other tables leaned over to look at Wen Tang. They all looked at her carefully, sizing her up and down, and couldn't believe that a factory director could be a woman, and so young at that.
Even Shen Pengfei couldn't help but ask, "Did you make that Jiebao soap?"
Wen Tang nodded slightly, but then said, "I did it with a friend."
Shen Pengfei couldn't help but ask, "Do you have a factory in Hai City that also produces this?"
At that time, the county sent Director Wang to communicate with Wen Tang and asked her to merge the factory with the county. Wen Tang disagreed and said it should be merged with Hai City.
This is also the reason why the county did not provide more support later.
But Shen Pengfei had a hunch that the factory that Wen Tang worked in Hai City was definitely not just a place that made soap, otherwise she would have moved her job long ago.
As expected, Wen Tang said, "No, I'm making beauty products in Haishi."
"Beauty makeup?" Every profession has its own expertise, and Shen Pengfei doesn't really understand this.
"Well, it's used to make up people, like those in art troupes and drama troupes who need to perform on stage."
"Of course, Haishi is a big city, and many people wear lipstick and whitening cream to look better in their daily lives. We produce these."
"Of course, we are only producing lipsticks now. Things like whitening creams and eyebrow pencils will take more time and require a little bit of research to bring them out."
Shen Pengfei didn't know much about these things, but Wen Tang's words were clear and his expression showed that he was very confident. Shen Pengfei still praised him, "You young people are better than your predecessors, and each generation is stronger than the previous one. Very good!"
Wen Tang was proud in his heart, but humble on the outside, "Secretary, you are too kind!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Pengfei waved his hand in a friendly manner, "Why call me secretary? It's too distant."
“In the future…” Shen Pengfei raised his hand and pointed at Gu Shuhe on the table. Chen Ying quickly reminded him in a low voice, “Shuhe!”
Shen Pengfei smiled and continued, "If Xiao He marries us, we will be formal in-laws. You can just call me uncle."
Wen Tang still looked calm and unperturbed, "Okay, Uncle Shen!"
Shen Pengfei didn’t say anything else, but called everyone to “Eat, eat, while the food is hot.”
"Listen to the words, pick some food for Xiaohe."
"Pour some wine for you...Brother and Uncle Gu!"
Then he called out to everyone, "Everyone, eat your food!"
He greeted Gu Juyuan and others at the main table.
The aunt and sister-in-law of the Shen family each sat at two tables to accompany Gu Jinfeng, Gu Jin and others.
Because of the good start, the meal was a great success, with both the host and the guests enjoying the food and the drink.
Jiang Ruoruo was still unhappy, and because she was unhappy, she ran out after eating a few bites.
Because his eldest brother was getting married, Shen Tingyu had become a waiter.
He was serving dishes outside. By now, most of the dishes had been served and no new dishes had come out. He had some free time and was squatting at the kitchen door to eat something secretly.
I'm hungry.
He would take a few bites whenever he had time.
Because he was squatting at the kitchen door, Shen Tingyu saw Jiang Ruoruo as soon as she appeared in the yard.
Seeing this, Shen Tingyu naturally went forward to ask, "Ruoruo, why did you come out so soon?"
“Are you full?”
"There are still two dishes to be served!"
Jiang Ruoruo saw him squatting at the kitchen door and became even angrier. "What are you doing here?"
"Serve the dishes," Shen Tingyu said and laughed, "There are quite a lot of people, so my mom asked me to help serve the dishes."
"Are you a waiter?" Jiang Ruoruo didn't look very good.
Shen Tingyu was a little happy, "Yes, they all went to the banquet, I didn't go, I stayed here to help."
"Ruoruo, we will be booking it in a few days. How are you going to book it?"
His question hit the nail on the head for Jiang Ruoruo, who immediately crossed her arms and asked, "How do I order?"
“Shen Tingyu, I’ve been waiting for you for so many years, you can’t let me be worse than others, right?”
Shen Tingyu immediately shook his head, "That's definitely not possible!"
"Don't worry, you definitely have everything that others have."
"So what did your sister-in-law buy for her engagement?" Jiang Ruoruo couldn't help but ask.
"It's something everyone has when they're engaged!"
"New clothes, new fabrics, bed sheets, quilt covers and so on. I saw them when I bought them the other day."
"How many are there?"
"Six new outfits!"
“It seems like there are six other things as well!”
"Then is it okay for me to have eight items?" Jiang Ruoruo glanced at him and asked.
Shen Tingyu heard it and said, "Not so good. My sister-in-law just ordered it. If you want two more than my sister-in-law, let alone others, my brother will definitely not agree."
"I can't go over my eldest brother either. My dad won't agree."
"Why not?"
"Then who let her be in the front?"
"In other families, the younger ones ask for more things than the older ones, and there are many who ask for more betrothal gifts."
"Then do you still want to compete with the one behind?"
Shen Tingyu frowned when he heard this, "No, there's only less than a month between you and your sister-in-law, how can there be any time difference?"
"One day short is still a day short!"
"I've been waiting for you for so many years, and you didn't say a word." Jiang Ruoruo's eyes turned red when she said this.
Shen Tingyu felt distressed, but...
"Ruoruo, these two things cannot be confused."
"How can we mix them up then?"
"Like your eldest brother's girlfriend, because your eldest brother liked her, your family raised the rule of other families' two or three sets of new clothes to six sets, and hired a tractor to go to the countryside to pick up people, can this be confused?"
"No, why did your eldest brother agree to her six sets, but you didn't agree to my eight sets?"
"... Well, you said it yourself. Others only have two or three new sets of clothes. Six sets is not a small number!"
"If you still want to buy it, I can buy it for you later. If you insist on getting engaged..."
Before Shen Tingyu finished his words, Jiang Ruoruo looked at him disappointedly and turned back into the house.
Shen Tingyu suddenly felt that the remaining meatballs in his hand were no longer fragrant.
Looking at Jiang Ruoruo's back as she left angrily, Shen Tingyu wanted to catch up with her and talk to her again, but he was afraid that others would talk about them behind their backs.
I can only suppress this matter for now.
Jiang Ruoruo didn't come out again until the end of the dinner. When it was time to introduce relatives (which was also the part of giving red envelopes), Jiang Ruoruo followed her mother to the main hall.
The Shen family only has a few real relatives: two uncles, an aunt, an uncle, and a sister-in-law.
The others are relatives from various distances, and some of Shen Pengfei’s fairly good friends outside.
Originally, these people didn't need to be given red envelopes.
But they wanted to curry favor with Shen Pengfei, so they took the initiative to sit in the recognition seat and rushed to give money.
Jiang Ruoruo’s father is also among these people!
