Zhang Fengxia could tell that the whole family was very satisfied with Awei. His grandfather, in particular, looked at him with a beaming smile, his expression full of admiration, believing that Awei had great potential for future growth.
In contrast, Lu Feng sat there eating silently, like a glutton. Zhang Fengxia couldn't eat anymore, so she reached down and secretly pinched him.
"Holy crap!"
Lu Feng exclaimed, his breath coming in a sharp gasp. This "Holy crap" instantly lowered the overall quality of the household by several notches.
Ah Wei sat to the side and chuckled to himself. This guy dared to argue with him? He felt ashamed to sit with someone like this now.
"Xiao Zhang, what's wrong?" Zhang Fengxia's mother asked with concern.
"It's alright, thank you, Auntie. My surname is Lu!" Lu Feng said somewhat awkwardly.
"Cough cough cough!" My cousin, sitting next to me, coughed with his head down, his face full of smiles.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, Xiao Lu. Please enjoy your meal. Don't worry, there's plenty of food. Please forgive any shortcomings in our hospitality," Fengxia's mother said politely.
But everyone could tell that what they were really saying was, "Eat quickly, and then leave."
"It's alright, everything's fine," Lu Feng said politely.
Zhang Fengxia turned her head to the side and stared intently at Lu Feng. Although she was smiling, the smile was really frightening!
"Little Liu..."
"Auntie, my surname is Lu!" Lu Feng quickly corrected.
"I'm sorry, I'm getting old." Fengxia's mother apologized verbally, but Lu Feng could tell that she was doing it on purpose. Her admiration for Awei was undisguised, and she naturally didn't have any good feelings towards Lu Feng!
What does your family do?
“My family is of average means. My parents are from the village and mainly farm. They have now moved to the city. As for myself, I only have a primary school education…”
"Pfft! Cough cough!" My cousin couldn't help but laugh out loud, and quickly said, "Sorry, I'm stuck, you can continue."
Looking at everyone, Lu Feng continued, "Now I run my own company, and it's doing fairly well. That's about it."
The old man asked Zhang Fengxia, "Is he...the owner of Jia...Jiamei Foods?"
“Yes, that’s him. He’s quite capable too. He’s already let go of Jiaming Foods and is now running another cross-border company, which is probably the largest private enterprise in Shenzhen now.” Seeing that he wouldn’t say it, Zhang Fengxia had to speak for him herself.
"Running a business, huh?" my cousin said from the side. "I've heard too many bosses in Shenzhen mention the title of 'largest private enterprise.' These days, business people aren't honest. I'm not saying this Brother Zhang isn't honest..."
“My surname is Lu!” Lu Feng turned his head and looked at him.
"Sorry, sorry!" the cousin apologized, but he still had a smile on his face. After all, he could tell that his aunt didn't like this person, so he was trying to find a way to get rid of him.
Seeing Zhang Fengxia's murderous glare, Lu Feng knew he couldn't let things continue like this, or she might kill him. He put down his chopsticks and said, "The private market is indeed quite chaotic right now, but Jiafeng Electronics is a solid company. It currently owns several brands, such as Weipuda TVs, Jinbao VCDs, Jiaxun pagers, and more..."
“Brother Lu, this is a family reunion dinner, not a business meeting. There’s no need for this.” His cousin interrupted Lu Feng.
“They were just stating their situation. Is it wrong to have money?” Zhang Fengxia couldn’t help but argue.
“Fengxia, look at the streets of Shenzhen. There are plenty of rich people driving nice cars. It’s not like the 60s or 70s anymore. Being rich doesn’t necessarily mean people will respect you.” My cousin was practically calling them nouveau riche.
"Alright, alright, let's not argue about this anymore." The old man quickly calmed things down and said, "Turn on the TV and see if there are any performances today."
"I'd like to toast you!" Ah Wei took the opportunity to raise his glass, stood up and said, "I have always admired seniors like you. In your time, under such difficult circumstances, you still maintained your heroic spirit and pride. I am truly impressed."
Zhang Fengxia went to turn on the TV, and upon hearing this conversation at the dinner table, she muttered "idiot" under her breath and turned on the TV.
"Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs, a perfect Mid-Autumn Festival gift, top-notch in China, call..."
"Sanzhu Oral Liquid treats illnesses and strengthens the body; it makes the elderly healthy and children eat well..."
"Oh, right, I also bought you three tubers of oral liquid. It's really popular right now." Awei quickly stood up and said, "I'll go get them!"
Lu Feng turned to look at the TV. The advertisements for Sanzhu Oral Liquid were everywhere, which made him realize that 1994 was the first year of health products, and the last few months of that year were the most frenzied months.
