Su Nian knew that if she got to know Chu Beichen's colleagues better, they would have more common ground in life. Furthermore, building good relationships with her husband's friends and colleagues had many benefits.
For example, when you have a quarrel with your husband and your husband complains to his friends, someone will speak up for you; moreover, friendships in the workplace are not so simple, and it is always good to have good relationships.
"You guys should eat more, since this is the first time we meet, and I don't know if you can eat spicy food or what you like to eat. I was lazy and prepared hot pot. You can eat whatever you like. Don't be polite." Things can be done imperfectly, but words must be said. This is the experience Su Nian summed up in his previous life.
"Sister-in-law, it's delicious. Your hot pot is so fresh. It's the first time I've eaten such delicious hot pot." Sun Dezhong said sincerely.
"Yeah, you know what, hot pot with beer is so delicious." Others also agreed.
Chu Beichen brought over middle-level managers. It wasn't because he was stingy, but a branch company plus the field staff had two to three thousand people. It would be impossible for him to invite them all.
Everyone was hungry, and after three rounds of drinks, they started introducing themselves.
When you first meet someone, the introductions are pretty formal, usually just your name, where you're from, and your position.
Su Nian listened very seriously, nodding from time to time. Her serious look, coupled with her pretty little face, stunned everyone.
Among the people at this table, Chen Qiao and Hu Feng are a family, while Qian Yu is the family member of another cadre.
Qian Yu and Chen Qiao both gave up their careers and came to this branch to support their husbands' work.
The fresh and spicy fish soup, with large pieces of beef and mutton, was a rare delicacy. It was quite cold, and everyone was sweating profusely while eating, and Su Nian was no exception. While enjoying the food, she did not forget to serve Chu Beichen the dishes.
"Sister-in-law, you are so considerate." Chu Beichen's single colleagues were extremely envious. "Sister-in-law, do you have any sisters who are as virtuous and beautiful as you? Please introduce them to us."
"There is only one girl in your sister-in-law's family, so stop imagining things." Chu Beichen has always been the one taking care of Su Nian at home, but now it is Chu Beichen who is intoxicated and enjoying the attentive service of his wife.
Next, the men began to discuss their recent work, tasks and the like.
Su Nian knew that men loved to discuss these things over the dinner table, expressing their opinions and insights. Usually, over a meal, one could understand a man's perspectives and what kind of person he was.
This is the Chinese drinking culture. People will express their true thoughts only after they have had enough food and drink.
Su Nian was also happy to listen to these, liked to hear Chu Beichen's views, liked to listen to their daily work and interesting things in life. She listened quietly, smiling from time to time, calm and elegant.
This made her feel closer to Chu Beichen.
Throughout the dinner, everyone kept praising the sister-in-law's cooking skills and praising Su Nian for her beauty, gentleness and virtue.
Chu Beichen, who was sitting in the main seat, didn't say much, but the smile on his face revealed that he was in a good mood.
Men are all a little vain in their hearts. Su Nian is Chu Beichen's treasure. What everyone said is actually what Chu Beichen usually thinks in his heart, but the feeling is different when hearing others say it!
After finishing the hot pot, Chu Beichen called everyone, took the barbecue grill and carried beer, and went up the stairs to the rooftop. Now that the weather has warmed up, it is perfect for outdoor barbecue!
