Xia Ruofei couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Elder Song to suddenly ask this question. Vertex updates are the fastest

To be precise, Xia Ruofei didn't expect Song Lao to gossip so much.

And there is only one possibility that this news can reach Song Lao's ears, that is, Song Lao's eldest son, Song Zhengping, the parent official of Xiangnan Province told him.

At this moment, Xia Ruofei was a little speechless, one of you is a respected leader of the older generation, and the other is a political star and a feudal official, even if it is a chat between father and son, shouldn't you talk about some major national affairs? What is there to talk about this kind of gossip between juniors?

However, Xia Ruofei's loss of consciousness was only for that moment, and Song Lao was still smiling and waiting for him to answer! Naturally, he couldn't be too rude.

So Xia Ruofei quickly organized the wording in his mind, and then said: "Grandpa Song, I did accompany Song Wei to Xiangnan Province after the Spring Festival, but it was not as you imagined...... There is no ...... between me and Song Wei."

Song Lao laughed, stretched out his finger and pointed at Xia Ruofei and said, "You, you! I didn't say what you have to do with Song Wei! You are in such a hurry to explain, but you seem to want to cover it up!"

Xia Ruofei couldn't help but feel embarrassed, and Song Lao smiled and said: "Ruofei! If this is a young man like you in the early years, even if you have three wives and four concubines, it is not an uncommon thing, and now the policy is not allowed, but aren't you also married yet?"

Xia Ruofei was a little stunned, and he didn't know what Old Song meant by saying this.

Without waiting for Xia Ruofei to answer, Song Lao said with a smile: "Young men and women admire each other, this is nothing, but you must not play with the feelings ......of girls!

Xia Ruofei hurriedly said, "Don't worry, how could I play with Song Wei's feelings...... That's not right! Grandpa Song, you're talking to me! The relationship between me and Song Wei is innocent, and we are not together at all!"

Song Lao laughed and said: "It's okay to be together, or not together, I'm just giving you a reminder, it's inevitable that people will nag when they get old!"

Xia Ruofei said: "I know, Grandpa Song, I will remember your teachings!"

Xia Ruofei is not a person who doesn't know what to do, he naturally knows that Song Lao is really thinking about him.

And to be honest, it can be heard from what Song Lao said just now, in fact, his attitude towards this aspect has been very tolerant, and he even spoiled some of his three wives and four concubines.

This is also related to the fact that Song Lao experienced that era. Of course, Song Lao naturally had nothing to say to Xia Ruofei.

Song Lao's grandchildren are almost not by his side, even if they are in the capital, they are all in awe of him, if they can't come, they won't come, such as Song Rui.

But Xia Ruofei was able to maintain a normal heart in front of him, and he was not as careful as Song Rui and the others, which was very rare among the younger generation, and Song Lao naturally liked him quite a lot.

Song Lao smiled and said, "I can't talk about teachings, it's just chatting." ”

Xia Ruofei talked with Song Lao for a while, and Director Lu came over and said, "Chief, dinner is ready, don't you think?"

Hearing this, Song Lao stood up and said, "Okay! Then let's go eat first!"

Although Song Lao is already in his old age, he is still walking like a tiger, walking on the road, he is the first to walk in front, Xia Ruofei and Director Lu followed.

Director Lu looked at the young man next to him with some envy, who was a little too young, and had dinner with the chief, this is not an honor that everyone has, and Song Rui and others in the Song family's family have such treatment.

Of course, Song Rui may not think that this is a great honor, as soon as Song Lao sits there, there is an invisible majesty, which makes him unable to eat a meal.

Song Lao heard that Xia Ruofei would come over today, and he was obviously in a much better mood, and specially asked the staff to add a few dishes at night, which is a great favor in Director Lu's opinion!

The group arrived at the dining room set up in the backyard wing, and the staff had already served all the prepared meals on the table.

"Come on, come on, sit casually!" Song Lao said with a smile, "Xiao Lu, you can also sit down and eat!"

Director Lu smiled and said, "Thank you, chief!"

As a staff member next to Song Lao, it is also a common thing to eat at the same table with the chief, so it is impossible for Song Lao and Xia Ruofei to sit and eat, and he is a dignified ministerial-level cadre waiting on the side, right?

After Song Lao sat down, Xia Ruofei and Director Lu sat down on either side of him.

Song Lao turned his head and said to the service staff: "Xiao Qi, go and open the bottle of Drunken Eight Immortals that Ruofei gave me last time, I want to drink two cups today!"

"Yes, chief!" Xiao Qi said, and hurriedly went to prepare the liquor.

Song Lao said with a smile: "Ruofei's ability is really great! Not to mention anything else, this liquor operated by your company is really to my taste!"

Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Grandpa Song, if you like to drink, I'll send you some later!"

"No, no, I don't like to drink!" Song Lao waved his hand and said, "It's you here today, I'm happy, that's why I only drink two glasses, usually I follow the health doctor's instructions, and I hardly drink alcohol!"

Director Lu hurriedly said: "The chief is very self-disciplined in this regard!"

Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "In fact, moderate drinking for the elderly is still good for the body, relieving menstruation and invigorating blood! Of course, liquor is strong, in fact, the most suitable for you is wine, drinking a small glass every day is definitely good for the body!"

Song Lao smiled and said, "Then I'll drink some wine in the future! What you little divine doctor said is still very authoritative! With your Shang Fang Sword, there is no reason for the health care doctors to object......"

Xia Ruofei almost couldn't hold back his laughter, which shows that the old man is still a good wine!

He couldn't help but smile and said: "Grandpa Song, I have acquired two wineries in Australia, and planted a batch of new grapes, and the time should be about to be harvested, when this batch of wine is brewed, I will send you a few boxes, you can keep it and drink it slowly!"

"Okay, good!" Song Lao said, "Your kid is giving you all good things, and the Australian red wine is not far off!"

"You've won the prize!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.

The staff quickly opened the drunken Eight Immortals wine, and smelled the rich aroma of the wine, Song Lao couldn't help but sniff and said, "Pour it for us!"

Xiao Qi hurriedly poured wine for Song Lao, and when it was Xia Ruofei's turn, he waved his hand, took the wine bottle and poured wine for Director Lu personally, and then poured himself another glass.

"The first glass of wine, welcome Ruofei to the capital!" Song Lao picked up the wine glass and said, "You will have to come to Beijing often in the future, I heard that you bought a house in Liuhai Hutong? Then you can come and live for a while if you have nothing to do! You can also talk to this old man ...... me."

Although Song Lao's status is respected, his children are either released as officials or have their own homes in the capital, and as for the grandchildren, unless it is a New Year's festival or when he celebrates his birthday, he rarely comes to the door at other times.

So, from this point of view, in fact, this is a lonely old man.

Xia Ruofei held the wine glass and said, "Definitely, as long as you don't bother me!"

"Someone chats with me and plays chess, I'm too late to be happy!" Song Lao laughed, "How can I be annoyed by you! Come on, come on, cheers!"

"Cheers!"

Everyone raised their heads and drank the first glass of wine in one gulp, Xia Ruofei immediately got up and poured wine for Song Lao and Director Lu.

Song Lao didn't stop him, he just smiled and reached out and tapped the table.

"Try my chef's skills!" Song Lao said, "This roast duck is said to be on par with the cheap one, and I don't know if it's Xiaolin's bragging, haha......"

He usually eats relatively lightly, but today Xia Ruofei came, Song Lao also took care of Xia Ruofei's taste, and specially instructed the kitchen to add a few meat dishes, including authentic Beijing roast duck.

Director Lu also said with a smile: "It is said that chef Xiaolin once worked in a cheap shop, and his roast duck skills usually don't have much opportunity to show, and the chief eats very lightly!"

"Really?" Xia Ruofei said, "Then I have to taste it......"

After speaking, he picked up a piece of lotus leaf cake, then sandwiched the roast duck, dipped it in the sweet noodle sauce, then picked up the green onion strips and concocted it in the same way, and finally rolled up the lotus leaf cake, directly took it with his hand and stuffed it into his mouth, and took a big bite.

There is a hint of sweetness in the fresh aroma, and the roast duck in the cheap shop is roasted in a smoldering oven, compared with the hanging oven roast duck in Quanjude, the roast duck made by this process has a more delicate and delicious taste.

Xia Ruofei gave a thumbs up as soon as he tasted it, and said, "It's delicious!"

Song Lao said with relief: "Haha! Xiao Lu, go back and praise Chef Xiaolin, his skills have been recognized by Doctor Xia!"

Xia Ruofei was ridiculed by Song Lao, but he was not embarrassed, but said with a smile: "There is a specialization in the art industry, no matter how powerful the divine doctor is, it is impossible to compare his cooking skills with the chef!"

"That's right!" said Song Lao with a smile.

Everyone chatted while eating, although they didn't drink much, but the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Song Lao asked, "By the way, I heard that you and Xiao Rui are going to do some business together?"

Xia Ruofei picked up a wet towel and wiped his mouth, and said: "Yes, not only Song Rui, but also Zhao Yongjun and Brother Zhao, as well as Liu Jian, Xu Zixuan and others, are usually good friends, everyone wants to do something together!"

When Xia Ruofei mentioned those names, Director Lu whispered in Song Lao's ear to introduce their identities and backgrounds.

After all, except for Zhao Yongjun, the rest of Song Lao must not have heard their names much, let alone sit down with their parents.

After hearing this, Song Lao nodded slightly and said: "It is worth encouraging to do something, but remember not to go crooked under the banner of the older generation!"

Xia Ruofei hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, we are doing business in an upright manner, and we never thought about taking any shortcuts!"

Old Song glanced at Xia Ruofei with a smile and asked, "Even if you meet the juniors of the old Liu family, it's the same?"

Xia Ruofei couldn't help but sneer for a while, and said in his heart, You always have too detailed a grasp of the situation, right? You even know this......

In fact, this matter involved Song Rui, the grandson of Song Lao, and Xia Ruofei, the young man he was most optimistic about, so he would pay more attention and specifically ask Director Lu to understand the situation.

This also shows Xia Ruofei's status in Song Lao's mind.

Fortunately, Xia Ruofei really didn't plan to make any small moves, so naturally he had a clear conscience.

So he said without hesitation: "Of course, we all register companies and apply for bidding through formal procedures, and no matter who the opponent is, we will not make a mistake." ”

In fact, everyone has a tacit understanding on this matter, whether it is Liu Haofan's side or Xia Ruofei's side, everyone's strength can be said to be equal, if you really want to dredge up the relationship and engage in illegal operations, I'm afraid no one will be able to please you.

Song Lao said with a pleasant face: "I am naturally relieved of you! It's just that Song Rui and the others are a little unsupportive. Since you are doing things together, you have the responsibility to urge and remind them, not only for the matter of taking land, but also in the future, if there is a situation of abusing power for personal gain, this board will hit you!"

Xia Ruofei hurriedly said: "Please rest assured! I will definitely fulfill my responsibility! Grandpa Song, to be honest, I don't lack this amount of money now, even if Brother Zhao or Song Rui want to use the power of the family elders to make profits, I will definitely not agree!"

Song Lao said with relief: "With your words, I am relieved...... Xiao Rui has never let me worry about this kid, but after becoming friends with you, he has improved a lot!"

Director Lu also smiled and said: "Chief, if Comrade Fei is so good, he will naturally infect and influence his friends!"

"That makes sense!" Song Lao said with a smile, "Come on, come on, I'll respect Ruofei for a cup! Thank you for helping me discipline that grandson who doesn't let me worry......

Xia Ruofei hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare!

After speaking, he picked up his wine glass, and after gently clinking glasses with Song Lao, he immediately did it as a respect.

In fact, Xia Ruofei still has a trace of weak-hearted Song Rui pursuing Zhuo Yiyi, obviously moving his true feelings, this matter is strictly not in the interests of the Song family, Xia Ruofei not only did not stop it, but also gave a lot of help openly and secretly.

I don't know if Old Song will blame me when he learns about this in the future...... Xia Ruofei thought with some apprehension in his heart.

After being full of wine and food, Song Lao took Xia Ruofei back to the hall in the backyard, and the staff had already set up the tea set and prepared the mountain spring water for the tea.

The tea is the best red robe sent by Xia Ruofei, and the water is specially opened from Yuquan Mountain, which is the most suitable for making tea.

Xia Ruofei naturally took on the task of making tea.

He skillfully cleans the tea utensils, pours the tea leaves, and makes the tea like a flowing cloud, full of pleasing beauty to the eye.

After a while, the fragrant tea soup was divided into several small tea cups, Xia Ruofei put the tea cup in front of Song Lao, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Song, try my craftsmanship!"
