Chapter 853: Stunned
When I went to the printing house to see the layout of the brochure and add the illustrations, it was already getting dark.
Coming out of the printing house, Xiao Bing lowered his head and said, "Brother Zhong, why don't you leave after dinner at my house?" ”
Zhong Yi wanted to visit the Xiao family by the way, but he happily responded: "Okay, then I'll bother." ”
"What's the bother, it's just a meal." Xiao Bingyan smiled, and immediately led the way with the tiger's little hand.
Constantly meeting acquaintances along the way, Xiao Bing kept calling this aunt, that uncle, or even Mrs. and the like, and it could be seen that Xiao Bing was very likable in the town.
In the meantime, it is inevitable that some people will secretly criticize Zhong Yipin.
Obviously, these people all regard Zhong Yi as the new aunt of the Xiao family.
Zhong Yi is majestic in the city, but no one in Shiqi Town knows him.
Soon, the three of them came to a white-walled compound at the west end of the town.
The Xiao family is the richest man in Yin County, and the house is naturally very large and has a large population.
Seeing the eldest lady coming back with a young man, the servants and old mothers of the Xiao family also thought that it was the new aunt who came to the door, and they came forward to greet him, calling him uncle.
Xiao Bing didn't explain, just looked at it with a smile.
Zhong Yi felt a little embarrassed, but he didn't bother to explain, because a few maids and old mothers misunderstood that he couldn't change anything.
But in the face of Xiao Xianen, that is, Xiao Bing's father, Zhong Yi felt that it was necessary to make his words clear, otherwise, he might cause some trouble in the future.
……
"Second Master Xiao!" Seeing Xiao Xianen in the living room, Zhong Yi shook slightly.
Xiao Xianen was about forty years old, combed his hair parted, and wore a Mao suit, looking very young.
From Xiao Xianen's dress, he knows that he is an enlightened intellectual, otherwise he would not have sent Xiao Bing to college, and he would not have been able to cultivate a girl like Xiao Bing.
Speaking from the heart, Xiao Bing is not the same as those eldest ladies who don't go out of the door and don't step out of the second door.
Hearing Zhong Yi's title, Xiao Xianen's brows frowned slightly, and he asked, "What do you call me?" ”
Zhong Yi shook it again and said, "Second Master Xiao! ”
This title is exquisite, if Zhong Yi meets Xiao Bing as a friend, then he is a junior, and he will be called uncle, but now Zhong Yi is called Xiao Erye, which is an official title on the official field.
Xiao Xianen immediately glanced back at his daughter, and Xiao Bing's eyes showed a slight gloom.
Turning his face again, Xiao Xianen already had no good face when he faced Zhong Yi, and replied casually: "It turned out that Mayor Zhong came to the cold house, fortunately." ”
Those foolish men and women in the town didn't recognize Zhong Yi, but Xiao Xianen did.
Zhong Yi had just arrived in Yinjiang on the first day, Xiao Xianen already knew him, because he also had a banquet in the Chen Mansion that day, although their Xiao family was the first household in Yinxian County, but there was obviously no way to be tough with a local snake like Chen Jinmu, so he could only pinch his nose to eat that day, and then witnessed Zhong Yi's demeanor.
Before this, Xiao Xianen admired Zhong Yi a lot, and felt that this young mayor was quite courageous, and as soon as he came, he eradicated Chen Jinmu, the head snake, and uprooted the underworld forces in Yinjiang.
But now, Xiao Thanksgiving no longer has a good impression of Zhong Yi.
Zhong Yi could feel the alienation in Xiao Xianen's tone, and he was speechless for a moment.
Xiao Bing still said: "Dad, Brother Zhong came to check the printing of the brochure." ”
"Please rest assured Mayor Zhong about this." Xiao Xianen said, "Our Xiao family has always been based on integrity, since we promised the city government to print it within two days, we will definitely print it." ”
Zhong Yi said: "I have no doubt about the integrity of the Xiao family. ”
Xiao Xianen nodded, and said: "It's getting late, and the old man won't keep Mayor Zhong, Bing'er, you can send Mayor Zhong for your father." ”
Zhong Yi was even more embarrassed, he originally came to have dinner, but he was ordered to be evicted.
"Dad!" Xiao Bing also felt that he couldn't go, and said coquettishly, "Can't you let Brother Zhong eat before leaving?" ”
Xiao Xianen couldn't help but pick up the teacup, and said in a light but unquestionable tone: "Send off!" ”
Zhong Yi no longer had the face to leave, and quickly got up to say goodbye.
Sending Zhong Yi away, Xiao Bing complained as soon as he returned to the living room: "Dad, how can you treat Brother Zhong like this?" ”
"Silly girl." Xiao Xianen glanced at Xiao Bing lovingly and said, "Dad is not doing this for you?" ”
"For me?" Xiao Bing said angrily, "If it's really for me, you can go and invite Brother Zhong back for dinner now." ”
"It's not going to work." Xiao Xianen shook his head and said, "Not only will I not invite him back for dinner, but our Xiao family in Yinxian County will never invite him to come to the door, and you will not have anything to do with him again." ”
"Why?" Xiao Bing stomped his feet and didn't follow, "I don't, I don't!" ”
Xiao Xianen only shook his head and sighed, but secretly said in his heart, silly girl, your father is from here, can you still see that you already like this surnamed Zhong in your heart?
But the one surnamed Zhong is about to get married!
How can the daughter of my Xiao family in Yinxian County be an aunt's wife?
So, while you're not deep yet, forget about him!
……
On the way back to the city hall.
Yang Feng asked Zhong Yi while driving, "Mayor, why didn't you eat at Xiao's house?" ”
Zhong Yi was worried in his heart, and said angrily at the moment: "Why should I eat at Xiao's house?" ”
Yang Feng was not afraid of Zhong Yi, and laughed in a low voice: "You said that you left without eating, how disappointed should Captain Xiao be in her heart?" ”
Zhong Yi said: "What nonsense are you talking about?" ”
"I'm not talking nonsense." Yang Feng said with a smile, "Who can't see Captain Xiao's thoughts?" ”
Zhong Yi didn't bother to pay attention to Yang Feng anymore, just looked out the window in amazement, but Xiao Bing's flower-like beauty jumped out of front of him, but after a while, it was replaced by Zhang Manyi's pretty face.
Yang Feng said again: "Mayor, what do you have to worry about about this? ”
After a slight pause, he said: "Miss Man Yi likes you, and Captain Xiao likes you too, so you can marry the two of them together, but I heard that Chief Sun has two aunts." ”
The commander Sun in Yang Feng's mouth is Sun Liren, the commander of the new 38th Division.
This is actually nonsense, Sun Liren only has one wife and one aunt.
But Zhong Yi didn't bother to tell Yang Feng, because this hun didn't know the difference between a wife and a concubine.
To tell the truth, it is not new for senior generals of the national army in this era to marry their aunts, like the Sichuan warlord Yang Sen and the Lu warlord Zhang Zongchang, and they don't even know how many aunts they have, Zhang Zongchang even got the nickname of the three unknown generals, and he doesn't know how much money he has, how many soldiers he has, and how many aunts he has.
But Zhong Yi is different from them after all, and Xiao Bing will never be his aunt's wife.
If Zhong Yi really dared to come to the door to propose marriage, the Xiao family in Yinxian County would definitely turn his face against him.
