After sitting for about half an hour, no one came to greet Lin Qiuhan and Chen Fei.
They also understood that when they came from other places, their relationship with the
Zhou family was not very close, their status was not high, and it was normal for them not
to be taken seriously.
Fortunately, Lin Qiuhan and Chen Fei didn't care about this. They came to the birthday
party mainly to express their gratitude to Mr. Zhou. So after sitting for more than ten
minutes, they got up and left.
"You only remember that our Zhou family was suppressed because of Lin Zhidong, but you
forget that at the beginning, it was I who made friends with Lin Zhidong, and our Zhou
family rose rapidly by relying on Lin's business."
When the old man heard this, he poked his crutch and said, "nonsense, you two shut up."
"That is, if it wasn't for taking Lin Zhidong. Our Zhou family will not be beaten down by the
Lin family in the capital. The strength of the family has suddenly regressed from the
accumulation of ten or twenty years, and it is only now that it has barely recovered. "
"Dad, you're still with Linzhi. For so many years, haven't we been harmed by them? "
When Zhou Hongzhi and Xu Caixia heard Lin Zhidong's name, their faces suddenly
changed.
"Why don't you have a good reception? It's Lin Zhidong's daughter. I --" the old man was a
little excited.
The housekeeper was stunned for a moment, and then said, "this -- after Miss Lin gave the
gift, she left."
"Father, Long'an City, must be Lin Zhidong's daughter. Anyone here? Are you still there? "
Zhou Taiyuan was a little excited and asked.
The housekeeper asked the servant, and then replied, "master, today there are two people

instead of father."
Mr. Zhou asked, "are Lin Qiuhan and Chen Fei from Long'an here today?"
"Dad, what's the matter?" Zhou Hongzhi, aware of his father's abnormality, can't help but
ask.
At this time, Zhou Taiyuan, who was browsing the guest list, suddenly stopped on a name,
"Lin Qiuhan, Long'an city!"
All the people in the Zhou family were excited and talked about it.

"Besides, I've heard that there are many miracles in those martial arts schools. When it's
time to get engaged, let Xia'er ask Binghu Zong for some elixir through Tao Yu, so as to
prolong the old man's life and live ten or eight more years. "
"Yes, a powerful warrior with a high position. Our marriage with the Taoists this time can
be described as a strong alliance. In the future, our Zhou family will certainly grow and
grow
"Binghu sect is an authentic wudaozong sect. If they come to congratulate us, then our
Zhou family's status in Donghe city and even Donghu province will be further improved."
Hearing this, Zhou Jiaqi and others could not help but be excited, and the discussion was
loud.
"I also heard from the Tao family that binghuzong might send someone down to celebrate
this engagement banquet. By that time, our Zhou family will have a big face. "
"Xiao Yun, shut up. Are you talking about your brother like that?" Xu Caixia glared at her
daughter, then looked at the old man and said in a voice, "Dad, what Xiaoyun said about
the Taoists' apprenticeship is true. I asked someone. Tao Yu once joined Binghu Zong to
study martial arts for three years, and made many friends there. Even many teachers of
Binghu Zong liked her very much. "
"I've heard that sister Tao Yu is a martial artist. She is an authentic master who has joined
the Binghu sect to learn martial arts. If my brother dares to play tricks again, I'm afraid
sister Tao will kill him. "
On one side, an 18-9-year-old young girl also came out and said with a smile, "don't worry,
Grandpa. After my brother and sister Tao are engaged, I promise I won't make trouble
again."
Xu Caixia, Zhou Hongzhi's wife, said with a smile, "Dad, don't worry, Xia'er has grown up
and is mature now. She won't make any more mischief."
"Well, it's good that you have this heart. Don't do the stupid things before." The old man
nodded.
The young man is Zhou Hongzhi's son, Zhou Xia, the grandson of Zhou Taiyuan. Hearing
the speech, he stood up and nodded: "don't worry, grandfather. I will work hard to develop
our Zhou family."
Then the old man looked at a 25-6-year-old young man and said, "Xia Er, you are not
young. After this engagement, you can get along with the little girl of the Tao family. We
should be steady in our work and stop fooling around. We should start to train ourselves
and make plans for the future of our Zhou family. "
The old man nodded his head and said, "this arrangement is OK, and it will be convenient
for everyone."
With a smile on his face, Zhou Hongzhi said to the old man, "Dad, don't worry. We have
already contacted the Tao family. The engagement of Xia'er and Tao Yu has been
confirmed by our two families. We are going to officially announce the engagement at
your birthday party two days later, and we will be very happy at that time. "
When asked about this, a middle-aged man in his 40s and 50s came forward. He was Zhou
Hongzhi, the only son of Mr. Zhou Taiyuan, and now the head of the Zhou family.

The old man listened to the report of the younger generation, only nodded slightly, and
didn't care much about these things. Instead, he asked, "what about the Taos?"………
"And Dad, your friends and relatives, the invitation cards were sent out, and almost half of
them came. The rest didn't come. Some of them haven't been in touch for a long time,
and some of them are not in China. It's not convenient, but they all called to explain and
gave birthday gifts. "
"There are also several big suppliers from outside the province who have sent people to
come here. We have all received them well. They will not leave until two days later when
the birthday party officially starts."
"Dad, today's guests are 135, and most of us from the major forces in Donghe city are
here. Business partners like Xu's and Chu's, as well as people from the municipal
government, have also come. "
In the backyard, the old man Zhou Taiyuan is sitting on a mahogany armchair with a
leading crutch. Below are the younger generation of the Zhou family, reporting to the old
man the situation of welcoming guests today.
When Chen Fei and Lin Qiuhan return to the hotel, the Zhou family's courtyard, which has
been busy for a whole day, is a little cold at the moment.
Although the other party smiles and asks for a few words, Chen Fei and Lin Qiuhan clearly
know that this is a polite speech. They have not yet left behind and go back to the hotel
directly.
"If we look into it carefully, we Zhou family still rely on the support of Lin Zhidong. Even if
we Zhou family have nothing, you can't hate Lin Zhidong. "
When Zhou Hongzhi and Xu Caixia heard the speech, they didn't refute the old man's
words, but they turned their lips, and the expression on their faces obviously said they
didn't agree.
Although Zhou Xia and Zhou Yun of the younger generation vaguely know that their
grandfather Zhou Taiyuan and Lin Zhidong are good friends who forget to make friends
with each other, the specific things are not very clear.
