Chapter 13 Reception Banquet
"I must know. For such a big battle, I heard that an army group was stationed around the cemetery to protect it. Many leaders, including the mayor, went there, but they were not even qualified to see the big shot."
Chu Hui put down his wine glass and clicked his tongue in admiration.
"I know who that person is."
Zhou Jing chuckled.
"Who is it?"
Everyone present focused their attention on him, with expectant expressions on their faces.
It was this effect that Zhou Jing wanted. He pretended to be calm and spoke slowly: "That big shot is the number one god of war in China, the commander-in-chief of the seven major war zones, and the marshal who protects the country."
"What? Marshal Protector of the Country!"
Everyone present exclaimed in unison, the sound was loud enough for everyone in the hall to hear.
So much so that everyone in the hall looked towards the table in the center.
"are you sure?"
Mrs. Wang asked in surprise.
"Grandma, the news is absolutely true. And at nine o'clock tonight, the city will hold a reception banquet for the Marshal Protecting the Country at Jinghu Zhai."
Zhou Jing said with a firm tone.
Jinghuzhai is the most upscale resort hotel in Pingyuan City.
Consumption is also extremely high.
And not only can you go there if you have money, but you also need a certain social status.
Generally, only when receiving important leaders, the city will arrange it in Jinghuzhai.
"Xiao Zhou, do you know what conditions are required to participate in the reception banquet of Marshal Protector?"
Mrs. Wang asked curiously.
"Grandma, to tell you the truth, I received an invitation to the Fengfeng Banquet."
Zhou Jing looked arrogant and took out two golden invitations from the inner pocket of his clothes.
There were exclamations one after another in the hall.
The other relatives at the table all looked towards him with envious expressions on their faces.
Zhou Jing had a smile on his face, very satisfied with everyone's reaction.
In fact, he bought this invitation to the wedding banquet for one million.
Because until now, the Marshal Protecting the Country has not said whether he will participate in the reception banquet. If not, the price of one piece will exceed 100 million.
Seeing the reaction of everyone in the audience, Zhou Jing thought the money was well spent.
"Xiao Zhou, grandma also wants to attend the reception banquet of Marshal Protector. I wonder if you can get another invitation?"
Mrs. Wang asked tentatively.
"Uh...of course."
Zhou Jing hesitated for a moment, but feeling the admiring looks of many people on him, he finally gritted his teeth and agreed.
He made a phone call and ordered another invitation from the man who had sold him the invitation.
"Okay, I also got an invitation for grandma."
Zhou Jing pretended to be calm and calm.
"Oh, Xiao Zhou, you are really my good grandson-in-law. Our Chu family will have to rely on your Zhou family for help in the future."
Mrs. Wang gave Zhou Jing a thumbs up, her wrinkled cheeks smiling like a chrysanthemum.
"It's easy to talk about."
Zhou Jing waved his hand seemingly modestly.
At this moment, a middle-aged man suddenly walked in from the door of the Chu family villa.
"Director Zheng!"
Chu Shan was slightly startled when he saw the person coming, and then recognized the person as Zheng Hai, director of the Municipal Administration Bureau.
Chu Shan and others hurriedly supported Mrs. Wang and came forward to greet her.
When Zheng Hai arrived, he didn't waste any time and handed the eight golden invitations he was holding directly to Mrs. Wang with both hands.
"This is the invitation for Marshal Protector's feast. I hope you all can come to us at that time."
The mayor specifically asked Zheng Hai not to mention the identity of Marshal Protector when he invited Marshal Protector to attend the reception banquet.
Moreover, the marshal does not like occasions like the reception banquet. If the invitation is sent to the marshal himself, there is a high probability that the other party will not come to attend.
So the mayor asked him to send the invitation directly to the marshal's family.
"Farewell."
After saying that, Zheng Hai left the villa without staying any longer.
Mrs. Wang stared at the eight golden invitations in her hand, her hands trembling uncontrollably.
"Xiao Zhou, you are so capable, you got eight invitations in one go!"
Mrs. Wang couldn't help but be overjoyed and patted Zhou Jing's shoulder hard. The more she looked at Zhou Jing, the more satisfied she became.
"The old lady is so lucky to have found such a capable grandson-in-law."
"Yes, Zhou Jing is not only capable, but also handsome and personable. If I could marry a man like Zhou Jing, I would be happy."
"In the future, when the Chu family and the Zhou family unite, the Chu family will definitely reach a higher level and become a first-class family in Pingyuan City sooner or later!"
The relatives praised and flattered Zhou Jing and Mrs. Wang.
So much so that Mrs. Wang's stooped waist straightened up a bit.
However, Zhou Jing was greatly confused at this moment.
He didn't buy eight invitations at all.
He just ordered another one.
Moreover, these invitations were sent by Director Zheng of the Municipal Administration Bureau.
But he didn't know Director Zheng at all.
But now everyone mistakenly thinks that he got these invitations.
He enjoys the adulation of others very much.
Since everyone made a mistake, he might as well just make the mistake.
"It's all trivial, just eight invitations. Others wanted to give me eighteen invitations, but I didn't even take them."
Zhou Jing laughed heartily to cover up his guilty conscience.
"Honey, you are awesome."
Chu Xinxin excitedly hugged Zhou Jing's neck and kissed Zhou Jing.
Then Chu Xinxin turned to look at where Chu Shiyan's family was, "I'm not like some people who like to find murderers as their husbands."
Chu Xuezhen and Miao Fen lowered their heads in shame and ate in silence without saying a word.
Chu Xuezhen secretly glanced at Zhou Jing, then glanced at Qin Luotian, and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.
Look at someone else's son-in-law, and then look at your own.
People are more infuriating than others.
If their son-in-law were Zhou Jing, he would probably be able to laugh out of his dreams.
But what Chu Xuezhen and his wife didn't expect was that Qin Luotian suddenly put down his chopsticks, stood up and said to the crowd: "These eight invitations are for me."
Relatives all looked towards Qin Luotian.
"What are you talking about? These invitations were clearly sent by Zhou Jing just now."
Chu Shan rolled his eyes and said angrily.
"This is an invitation sent to our family. I'll give you a few by the way."
Qin Luotian said calmly.
"Fart! Who do you think you are? You don't urinate and take photos. Do you think anyone will believe you when you tell such a lie?"
When Chu Yunbin saw that Qin Luotian dared to take the credit from his son-in-law, he couldn't help but cursed.
"Don't you know whether you, a murderer, are capable of this?"
"Isn't Qin Luotian mentally ill?"
"Tsk tsk, he is also the son-in-law of the Chu family. Qin Luotian can't even compare to Zhou Jing's. Why is the gap so big?"
"Chu Xuezhen, take good care of your son-in-law and don't bring him out to make him look embarrassed."
The relatives all scolded Qin Luotian and Chu Xuezhen's family with disgust.
Miao Fen glared at Qin Luotian with a livid face, "Sit down, isn't it embarrassing enough?"
