771: I can’t say they are very similar, I can only say they are exactly the same
Yu Xiaoye looked at the fish, stunned:
this--
Who could have imagined that the fish he had sold himself would come back to him after all this time?!
And Zhou Ziheng was also present.
She understood why Zhou Ziheng had just glared at her—
Also, why did this fish appear on Jiang Shang’s dinner table?
Could it be that the Jiang family’s nanny also joined the team grabbing the fish?
However, thinking about the fact that Jiang Shang seemed to work in the public security system, Yu Xiaoye had a bad feeling in his heart.
Recalling what Shao Xia had told her, she said that the boss had nepotism with the police, and that the boss's daughter-in-law and the police's family were sisters.
It can’t be—
Yu Xiaoye pretended to glance casually at Jiang Shang's wife Bai Jiawen——
Could this Bai Jiawen be the younger sister of Ban Ye’s daughter-in-law?
So, the big backer behind Ban Ye is this Jiang Shang in front of him?
Oh my god, is it such a coincidence?
Yu Xiaoye never thought that he would accidentally run into his "business partner"?
Isn't this walking straight into a wolf's den?
Yu Xiaoye glanced at Jiang Shang in uniform again. He originally thought that this man always smiled and looked quite friendly, but now he looked at him again, and he inexplicably had a greedy and treacherous temperament.
How could Zhou Ziheng be such a close friend of such a person?
However, people will change. They may have a very close relationship when they are young and do not have so many evil intentions, but once they enter the big dye vat of society, they may learn to be bad.
Or perhaps, Jiang Shang was not an upright person to begin with, but he just didn't have the opportunity to use his tricks. Now that he has some power, he can no longer hide his greed and becomes even more greedy.
Yu Xiaoye suddenly became alert and felt it necessary to remind Zhou Ziheng that he should be careful when dealing with people who abuse their power to make a fortune, otherwise he might be dragged into trouble one day.
While Yu Xiaoye's mind was spinning rapidly, others were still exclaiming in amazement at the big fish on the table.
Huang Weiliang remembered what Jiang Shang had just said about the tens of thousands of catties of fish that suddenly appeared in the capital, and asked:
"Old Jiang, these aren't the fish you were talking about, are they?"
Jiang Shang smiled and nodded:
"Sit down and try the fish."
In addition to the fish, there was also a plate of neatly arranged prawns. The prawns were unprecedentedly large, each weighing almost two taels. More than a dozen prawns filled the entire plate.
In addition to these two dishes, there was a whole braised pork elbow, a plate of four-happiness meatballs, a pot of rich and delicious chicken soup, a freshly sliced roast duck, a large bowl of braised lamb, and a few lighter side dishes.
In short, chicken, duck, fish and meat are all here.
In addition to the sumptuous dishes, there were also two bottles of top-quality wine, one Wuliangye and one Moutai, and two bottles of very rare red wine.
Yu Xiaoye thought that there would be no such petty bourgeois things in this era, but it turned out that she was just too inexperienced.
Just by looking at this table full of food, you can tell how prosperous Jiang Shang's life was.
These food and wine are definitely worth Jiang Shang’s monthly salary.
One can imagine how lucrative Jiang Shang's side income was.
Huang Weiliang reminded jokingly:
"Lao Jiang, take it easy. If you keep eating like this, you'll go bankrupt in just a few meals."
The implication is that being too greedy will lead to trouble.
Jiang Shang and his wife naturally understood the hidden meaning of Huang Weiliang's words. Jiang Shang's wife defended Jiang Shang:
"We don't eat like this every day. We usually just have radishes and cabbages with our rice. How can we be so extravagant? Today, you're all here, so Jiang Shang is happy. He asked me to bring out the best in the house to treat you. Okay, please sit down. You've seen this wine and meat before, so it's nothing special. The main thing is that I want you to try this fish and shrimp. You've definitely never eaten this before. Come and sit down and try it."
Several people found their own seats and sat down.
Yu Xiaoye sat silently beside Zhou Ziheng, not daring to express any opinion about the fish and shrimp.
He took every precaution and thought he had gotten off the car safely, thinking he could completely hide it from Zhou Ziheng. However, he didn't expect that after all the twists and turns, he would run into trouble because of a meal.
I guess Zhou Ziheng has already learned about the batch of fish from Jiang Shang. This time, I'm afraid Zhou Ziheng will not continue to pretend to be ignorant.
Forget it, if the enemy comes, we will fight him with our own strength, and if the water comes, we will block it with earth. Just confess and you will get the upper hand...
Jiang Shang's wife Bai Jiawen saw that Yu Xiaoye had been silent and just staring at the big fish. She guessed that it was from the countryside and had never seen such a good thing. She was particularly caring and said to her:
"Xiao Yu, you haven't seen such a big fish in the Great Northern Wilderness, right?"
"——" Yu Xiaoye could only nod, "Yes, I have never seen such a big one, it's really huge!"
Bai Jiawen considerately picked up a piece of fish for Yu Xiaoye:
"Come and try it. It's tender and has few bones. Do you think it suits your taste?"
Yu Xiaoye pretended to be very interested and picked up the fish in the bowl and put it into his mouth, forcing a smile:
“It tastes good—”
Zhou Ziheng suddenly said:
"Is it different from the fish we ate in the Great Northern Wilderness?"
Yu Xiaoye: "——"
The two looked at each other, and Zhou Ziheng continued:
"I heard that tens of thousands of kilograms of this kind of fish have entered the market recently."
"Wow——" Yu Xiaoye exclaimed without any emotion.
“I don’t know who has that much ability.”
"——" Why does this sound so sarcastic?
Yu Xiaoye didn't dare to confront Zhou Ziheng on the table, so he could only poke Zhou Ziheng secretly under the table:
If you have something to say, can you please go home and talk about it? Stop being so sarcastic.
The couple communicated tacitly. At the dinner table, Jiang Shang had already opened a bottle of Wuliangye and started pouring wine for others.
Jiang Shang's wife also opened a bottle of red wine and poured wine for the wives.
When it was Yu Xiaoye's turn, Yu Xiaoye was about to say that he couldn't drink, but Zhou Ziheng had already turned the wine glass in front of Yu Xiaoye upside down:
"My wife doesn't drink."
Bai Jiawen smiled and said:
"Oh, you're so strict and domineering in controlling your wife—Xiao Yu, you can't let a man bully you."
Yu Xiaoye pretended to smile gently:
"Sister Bai, I really don't know how to drink."
Bai Jiawen was about to say something when Jiang Shang came to Yu Xiaoye's rescue:
"If you can't drink, just drink soda. Don't make things difficult for me."
Jiang Shang called the nanny and brought a bottle of orange soda to Yu Xiaoye.
Yu Xiaoye poured himself a glass of soda.
It's not that she can't drink, it's that she doesn't dare to drink, because Zhou Ziheng will definitely confront her soon, and she must deal with it soberly. If she gets drunk and talks nonsense, she must not scare him again, and must stay sober.
The drinks were poured and everyone raised their glasses.
Huang Weiliang said:
"Let me start by saying that this first glass of wine should be toasted to Hengzi and his sister-in-law. We were unable to make it back for their wedding before, so this glass of wine today should be considered as a wedding wine for both of you."
"Yes, this is your wedding wine. I wish you a long and happy marriage and a son soon!"
