Zhou Qihuai is planning to do something big tonight.
So he went to find the political commissar to discuss inviting the officers in the army to dinner in the evening.
Since he personally invited them, the officers in the army had to give him face and naturally agreed happily.
Zhou Qihuai spent some money and asked the kitchen staff to prepare some decent dishes.
The dishes don’t need to be many, but they must be presentable and not look shabby to others.
By evening, officers came to the house one after another.
In this day and age, don’t worry about whether it’s grand or not. As long as there is meat, vegetables and wine, it’s considered a good treat.
Not to mention, Zhou Qihuai is a very generous person. He is not stingy at all when it comes to treating people and is willing to spend money.
Today we have not only meat, but also mutton and Moutai liquor.
There is also plenty of shrimp and crabs to eat.
This scale is comparable to a state banquet!
Although the officers had enough food and clothing, they could not eat good food.
Nowadays, people would basically spend every penny in half.
It’s worth the trip for them to be able to eat mutton and drink Maotai!
At the dinner table, Zhou Qihuai was chatting and laughing, not at all nervous.
Even when facing people of the same rank as the political commissar, he remained neither humble nor overbearing.
Even the political commissar had some respect for Zhou Qihuai.
It can be seen that the Zhou family behind Zhou Qihuai is of some importance.
"My dear brothers, I'm new here, so please bear with me if I'm not very tactful."
Zhou Qihuai filled the glasses for several people, lowered his posture, toasted them with a glass of wine, and drank it all himself.
This immediately brought everyone closer together.
Several officers picked up their glasses and drank every drop of wine in them.
After the political commissar drank a glass of wine, he started talking more.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect Comrade Zhou to have such a mature and steady side! Young and promising, young and promising!"
It really subverted the political commissar's imagination. Zhou Qihuai's clothes were so inappropriate and colorful that he looked very frivolous.
Unexpectedly, he was quite steady and sophisticated in his behavior, and it was obvious that he had experienced this kind of situation many times.
As expected, he comes from a big family!
Zhou Qihuai sat next to his sister and replied politely with a smile.
At the same time, he did not forget to pick up the dishes that his sister liked.
In today's situation, Jiang Mengning doesn't need to deal with interpersonal relationships at all.
She sat alone, eating her favorite dishes, enjoying her brother's service, and became the proud little princess she was before she traveled through time.
With this tsundere look, it's obvious that he's a spoiled brat.
Jiang Mengning's image in the compound before was deeply rooted in people's hearts.
So much so that now, no one dares to mess with her.
Even the political commissar was a little afraid of her.
Sometimes I really feel sorry for Lao Huo. Although he married a woman who is as beautiful as a fairy, she is very delicate and likes to make trouble. Most people don’t have such luck!
Thinking of this, I drank two more glasses.
This wine is quite delicious.
Zhou Qihuai knew what his sister liked to eat, so the dishes he arranged today were basically based on her preferences.
My sister likes to eat high-protein food, so I made shrimps and he peeled the shrimps for her himself.
It was obvious that the man's fingers had never touched water, but he didn't mind the oil stains in the dishes. He peeled the shrimps and put them into the sister's bowl one by one.
Sometimes my sister would complain about the food she couldn’t finish, but my brother didn’t complain and would eat it all.
"I don't want to eat this, I want to eat that. Please help me peel the crab. I only want to eat the meat inside..."
She asks for a lot, and most people can't stand it.
Zhou Qihuai, however, was able to accurately understand her preferences and serve her.
He didn't look impatient at all, which made the others smack their lips in amazement.
She is indeed as delicate as her reputation says. She is really hard to please. It's a good thing that she is my cousin, otherwise, most people would have quit long ago.
I have to say, Lao Huo really suffered a lot!
1Since they had come to this topic, he naturally had to get to the point.
"Although Meng Ning was raised in our care, she's not pretentious at all. She's lively and enthusiastic, generous and lovely, and especially loves to help others."
"I remember when she was little, she often helped old ladies cross the street. By the way, I haven't been back for a long time. Meng Ning is in the compound. She may not be able to adapt to life here for a while. I hope she didn't cause any trouble to you!"
How can one respond to this?
Jiang Mengning is always helpful! She even likes to help old ladies cross the street!
The officers looked at each other, and were too embarrassed to talk about Jiang Mengning's previous actions.
They were really afraid of this delicate girl, and they subconsciously glanced at her before speaking.
Jiang Mengning sat upright, and just a casual glance from her eyes was enough to shock people.
Several officers quickly looked away, trying to cover up their mistake.
"Ahem, comrade Jiang is truly kindhearted and...helpful. She has an excellent reputation in the compound. She hasn't caused us any trouble, absolutely no trouble at all."
One of the officers took a sip of his drink and mustered up the courage to speak.
The political commissar also cleared his throat and began to speak against his conscience: "Haha, Comrade Jiang...she is really good. She is eloquent and can act. She is the most representative talented woman of our new era! It is an honor for our small mountain village that such a talented woman can appear. Now, everyone in the department has to give her a thumbs up when they mention Comrade Jiang! Hahahaha..."
The political commissar's smiling face was a little stiff.
