Chapter 641: Huge Disparity in the Number of Guests
When Lu Jiaxin came back, Lu An immediately said when he saw him: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, I saw the cars in your garage, can you make me happy?"
He wanted to drive these cars to have fun, but the housekeeper didn't agree, so he had no choice but to ask his sister-in-law.
Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "Yes, but you can only drive on small roads, not on the main roads. Mainland driver's licenses are not recognized here. If you get on the main road and are caught by the police, you will have to live in the police station for a few days. If it is passed back, you But he became famous.”
Lu An himself is a police officer. He will be arrested by the Hong Kong police. Even if he goes back without leaving a record, he will be ridiculed: "Don't worry, little sister, I will drive next to you and I will be back after a short drive."
Lu Ping was also itchy, but he was firm enough not to follow.
Lu Jiaxin smiled and asked Sister Lu and the others to sit down: "Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work along the way."
Sister-in-law Lu didn't feel hard at all and said with a smile: "Jiaxin, thanks to you, I even got on the plane."
This is my first time to fly in a long life. I was very scared before I got on the plane. The windows were closed and I couldn't see outside. When I took off, I felt almost like riding in a car. When I reached high altitude, I opened the window and saw the white clouds all around, which gave me a different feeling.
Lu Jiaxin knows that the main reason why many people don't fly now is that it is too expensive. Who is willing to take away one or two months of salary by flying? "I will fly often in the future."
After hearing this, Mrs. Lu settled the matter and said, "Jiaxin, your father is in the hospital. I want to visit him."
Lu Jiaxin did not refuse: "It's getting late today, and it will be dark by the time we get to the hospital. He will finish his rehabilitation training tomorrow morning, and we will go to the hotel together to familiarize ourselves with the venue."
When Mrs. Lu and Lu Shan came over this time, they didn't spend the night in Pengcheng like Lu Jiaxin did. They got off the plane and went directly to the port.
Lu Ping was worried, and told Lu Jiaxin that he wanted to rush back to the hospital now: "Sister-in-law, my uncle may be scared in the hospital alone."
Most of the doctors and nurses at Sanatorium & Hospital speak Cantonese or English, and few speak Mandarin. He does not speak Cantonese, but he has worked hard to learn English well and can communicate with doctors and nurses in English.
Lu Jiaxin felt that he was worrying too much: "Don't worry, the hospital will send people to keep watch overnight. If anything happens, they will call me as soon as possible."
Dinner is a seafood feast. Not to mention eating, there were many things on the table that they had never heard of or seen. Lu An praised while eating: "Sister-in-law, where did you buy these ingredients?"
Lu Jiaxin couldn't answer this question: "Most of them are bought by the chef at the market. They choose the freshest ingredients. A few of them are given by friends."
Like Feng Qinglei and Zong Shimeng, if they get any good ingredients, they will ask her if they want it, and if they want it, they will send a copy. Of course, Lu Jiaxin would also give them things when there were contacts between friends.
After dinner, Lu Ping told Lu Jiaxin that he was going to the hospital to keep watch. Lu Jiaxin naturally wanted to help such a filial child.
Lu An also asked to go, but Lu Jiaxin refused: "The hospital stipulates that only one family member can accompany you at night. If you are worried, wait until dawn and go there!"
"good."
I know that Lu Hongjun is more conservative. After Lu Hongjun arrived, even if he stayed in the hospital, Nie Zhan went home and did not stay overnight at Lu's house. There are only a few days until the engagement, and once they are engaged, they can live together in a legitimate manner.
Lu Jiaxin had the habit of taking a walk to digest food after eating, and today was no exception. Lu An didn't go, saying he wanted to go swimming with Lu Shan after rest.
The moonlight fell on the garden like water, covering the flowers in the garden with a silver veil. Lu Jiaxin and Sister Lu were walking slowly on the path.
Sister-in-law Lu asked: "Jiaxin, how many guests did the Nie family invite this time?"
Lu Jiaxin knew what she meant: "The Nie family invited twenty tables, and I invited five tables. Because I didn't want to make it too grand for the engagement, so the Nie family only invited close relatives and friends. If it was a wedding, the Nie family would Probably fifty tables or more.”
There are twenty tables in the Nie family, and they only have five tables here, a ratio of 4:1. If you get married, wouldn't it be 10:1? This is too big a difference.
Sister-in-law Lu knew her temperament and asked tactfully: "Jiaxin, who are the people invited to the five tables here?"
Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "Some of my friends and company executives."
Not all senior executives will invite them, at least they must be at the general manager level and above. Susan, Xu Yue, Liang Weibo and Tian Pengyu were all invited, but not the others.
Sister-in-law Lu said with some regret: "If it were held in Sijiu City, we could have twenty tables."
Lu Jiaxin doesn't care about the twenty tables in Sijiu City at all. It seems obvious that these guests are mainly friends and old friends of the Lu family and Lu Hongjun. The Lu family will not talk about it, but they have seen through it over the years; most of Lu Hongjun’s friends and old acquaintances are not known to each other.
She didn't want to keep talking about this, so she changed the subject, "Sister-in-law, it's rare to come over. I'll take you to Hong Kong City for a walk after the engagement party."
"good."
Sister-in-law Lu and Lu An both took a week's leave. Excluding the two days of going back and forth, they could stay in Hong Kong City for five days. It’s not easy to come to Hong Kong City. I definitely want to go shopping and buy some things before going back. If she comes back to Hong Kong City without buying something, her colleagues and friends will say she is a fool.
After breakfast the next day, Lu Jiaxin took a rest before taking Sister Lu and the others to the hospital. When Lu Jiaxin came back last night, Lu An didn't see the car in the villa. When I see his car, I like it and touch it with my hands: "Sister-in-law, your car is so beautiful."
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "This car is not only beautiful, but also bulletproof."
Lu An's expression changed immediately, with a vigilant look in his eyes: "Bulletproof, what's going on? Aunt, someone wants to harm you?"
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said: "No. It's just that I was almost kidnapped before, so I ordered this bulletproof car. Lu An, you can only look at this car but not drive it."
Lu Jiaguang and the others knew about this, but the younger generation didn't know. Lu An knew the reason without asking: "Aunt, have all the kidnappers been caught?"
"Eight kidnappers, seven died, and the remaining one is in prison, sentenced to 30 years. When he came out, he was already an old man."
Lu Shan thought to himself that having money in Hong Kong City is also a very dangerous thing.
Because it was explained in advance, when Lu Jiaxin and his group rushed to the hospital, Lu Hongjun's rehabilitation training was almost completed.
Lu Jiaxin planned to let him continue to come for rehabilitation training the day after tomorrow, so she didn't go through the discharge procedures, and only let Lu Hongjun take a shower and change clothes. Afterwards, Lu Jiaxin took them to the Peninsula Hotel.
After getting familiar with the venue, Mrs. Lu asked, "I heard from your eldest brother that Mr. Nie is going to build a Peninsula Hotel in Sijiu City. Is there any relationship with this hotel?"
The main reason is that the Peninsula Hotel in Sijiu City belongs to Wansheng Real Estate, but this hotel is not, but it will be the same tomorrow.
Lu Jiaxin did not explain that the Peninsula Hotel in Sijiu City is a franchise, which may be confusing to non-professionals. She just vaguely said that Nie Zhan is the second largest shareholder of this hotel.
Mrs. Lu did not continue to ask after hearing this.
