Chapter 368 Family Banquet
For Jiang Yafei, as she gets older, her mentality becomes more mature.
She knew how much she liked Gu Yu, and she also understood that Gu Yu only treated her as a sister.
In the past few years, she has tried to like others, but for her, once someone lives in her heart,
When looking at other people, one can't help but compare them with Gu Yu, and the result is that they just look down on him.
Ever since Gu Yu brought Song Yunping home, Yafei has hidden her love for her even deeper.
As for Song Yunping, Jiang Yafei is not as picky as her mother An Jie, who would despise her family background.
In fact, she was very satisfied with her sister-in-law in every aspect: she was kind-hearted, gentle and virtuous, and she was tall and beautiful.
Moreover, Song Yunping was a very careful person. After several contacts, she discovered that Yafei had other feelings for Gu Yu besides brotherly love.
She found an opportunity to have a heart-to-heart talk with Yafei, and afterward, the relationship between the aunt and sister-in-law quickly warmed up, like real sisters.
The group of people were talking and laughing, bickering and joking, and more importantly, they were not as enthusiastic as they had been for a long time. They walked to the parking lot.
"Isn't this Dachao? Not bad, Xiaoyu, it seems you have made a lot of money in the past few years."
Ouyang Yi walked around the crown. He kept up with the trend. Although he was getting older, his mentality was getting younger.
"Of course, look whose son he is." Jiang Defu replied proudly.
Gu Yu on the side smiled and said nothing, then opened the trunk and put the luggage in.
"This car is the seventh generation Crown. Guess how much it costs?" Ouyang Yi looked at Jiang Defu with a joking expression.
"How much does a car cost?" Jiang Defu replied indifferently. He had always lived on the island and didn't know much about the changes in the outside world.
"Seven hundred thousand!"
"What? How much?" Jiang Defu asked again in disbelief.
"Seven hundred thousand!" Ouyang Yi came up to him, put his hands to his mouth and shouted again.
"Go away, I'm not deaf." Jiang Defu frowned and waved his hand.
"Why is this thing so expensive? Is it made of gold? Or is it equipped with missiles?"
Jiang Defu also followed Ouyang Yi's example and walked around the car looking left and right. He was very skeptical about the price.
"You don't understand, this is face and status!" Ouyang Yi followed Jiang Defu and said with a smile.
"Dad, get in the car, uncle, you should take Pingping's car." Gu Yu smiled and asked the two brothers to get in the car.
"Xiao Yu, I have to experience what it feels like to drive a luxury car worth seven hundred thousand. I'll take this one to the restaurant." Ouyang Yi said as he was about to get on the Crown.
"Where is your seat? It's already been arranged for you. Why are you being picky when you're riding in Pingping's car?" Jiang Defu grabbed Ouyang Yi.
"It's not like I haven't ridden in it before, I wanted to experience it for myself. This car is very spacious, and it won't be crowded at all for three people to sit in the back row." Ouyang Yi replied with a smile.
Compared to the arrogance he had when he was young, he is now able to take jokes, is thick-skinned, and has a childlike heart.
"It's good to have a car to ride in. I think your mindset hasn't changed. Why are you still greedy for enjoyment?"
Jiang Defu raised his eyebrows. Speaking of childishness, he has more.
"Okay, I'll sit next to you and you can help me with the makeover on the way." Ouyang Yi was not angry at all and happily chatted with Jiang Defu.
"Alright, you're so annoying. You two are getting more and more annoying as you get older. You two can take this car, and my sister and I will take Pingping's car."
An Jie, who was standing by, shook his head and pulled An Xin into the Mercedes.
At this time, the domestically assembled Mercedes-Benz could not compete with the Toyota Crown in terms of price and positioning.
"Alright, then Brother Jiang, please go first?"
"Or should you go first, Old Ou?"
About ten minutes passed in total, and everyone finally got in the car and headed to the hotel.
Gu Yu looked through the rearview mirror at Jiang Defu and Ouyang Yi, who were sitting in the back seat, studying the electric windows and the car refrigerator. He smiled.
"Dad, why did you think of taking the train to Jiaozhou this time? Did you buy a soft sleeper?" Gu Yu asked.
"I talked to my mom for a long time before she agreed to buy a hard sleeper. " Jiang Yafei, who was sitting in the passenger seat, replied unhappily.
"It'll only take a few hours to get there. Besides, for my level, it's more suitable for me to buy a hard sleeper." Jiang Defu looked at Yafei with dissatisfaction and replied with a slightly stern face.
"Dad, you have to learn from your uncle and adapt to the changes of the new era.
Our family has the conditions, and you and mom are getting old, it's time to enjoy yourself." Gu Yu persuaded.
"Xiao Yu is right, Lao Jiang, now that you have retired, don't be so formal.
Just now at the platform, Xiaoyu told me that he was going to take us on a plane to go out for fun." Ouyang Yi said with a smile.
"There's nothing special about flying. I've ridden on one before." Jiang Defu said proudly.
"This is not the military aircraft that was converted from the transport plane you were originally on. It is a civilian aircraft.
Not only will there be flight attendant service and performances, but I heard there will also be chocolate, coffee, steak, and yes, free Maotai."
Ouyang Yi shared what he had learned with Jiang Defu. He was actually already planning to find time to get on the plane.
"Free Maotai? That's something that attracts me. Xiaoyu, please make arrangements and find time to bring your uncle along."
Jiang Defu spoke to Gu Yu with a smile, and Gu Yu immediately agreed.
Soon, the car saw a restaurant. Today's meal was hosted by Gu Yu and Song Yunping.
It was rare for Anjie's relatives to gather together like this. She was smiling the whole time at the dinner table.
Gu Yu and other young people would toast with the elders from time to time. Yafiya would rather say auspicious words to make the elders very happy.
The elders also talked about the past and thanked Jiang Defu for taking care of them. The atmosphere of the whole family dinner was warm and happy.
After the meal, Gu Yu wanted to send Jiang Defu and An Jie to the hotel to rest first. After all, they had been sitting on the train for half a day and he was afraid that they would be tired.
However, Jiang Defu and An Jie were in high spirits and in good spirits. After discussing with their relatives, they decided to go to An Tai's house first.
An Tai had lived a cautious life for most of his life. The house he lived in before was too eye-catching in that era, so he had already dealt with it.
After that, he moved to a welfare house allocated by his company. He never complained about the difference in living standards.
Instead, I was thankful that my family had the protection of Jiang Defu, otherwise I would have been labeled a rightist and a capitalist. How could I have spent more than 20 years in peace?
The two children in the family also had good development. An Chen became an officer.
An Yi was first assigned to the army by Jiang Defu, and later was admitted to university. Now she works as a doctor in Shanghai.
An Tai just retired. He is already 60 years old and has no intention of starting a business to earn back his family fortune.
"Xiao Yu, you just came back from Shanghai. Have you seen your cousin?" An Tai asked about An Yi's situation.
"I had dinner with her. She is now working in the dermatology department and is not very busy at work." Gu Yu didn't say much.
"We don't worry about her work, but her personal life. I have to thank you for lending her the house.
You have a good relationship with her, so you should also persuade her. If a girl out there finds a reliable boy to take care of her, we will feel more at ease."
An Tai frowned slightly, with a look of melancholy on his face.
