Chapter 748 Ginger is still old and spicy
"What nonsense?" Lu Xiuli seemed not as gossipy as her daughter. She pulled He Xiaoshi, who was still looking out, and said in a long and whisper, "Hurry up and ask Jianjun to come back for dinner. When you get busy at night, you don't know when you will have time..."
The Spring Festival in the county town is even more lively at night, and He Xiaoshi and her husband both have to open a shop until midnight!
However, before He Xiaoshi could come back for Wang Jianjun, Yang Yan and Luoluo had just stepped into the yard, and Wang Jianjun stepped in!
"Why are you back? Where is the store? Is Aunt Liu left alone in the store?" He Xiaoshi anxiously greeted her.
However, Wang Jianjun did not answer her question, but excitedly pulled up his wife's hand and said excitedly: "I remember it, I remember it!"
"What did you remember?" He Xiaoshi was a little confused.
"I said why is it so familiar! I just thought about it in the store and then I remembered that Xiaoyan's father-in-law!" Wang Jianjun turned his head and saw Yang Yan standing with a bitter smile in front of him. He stopped talking to him. He scratched his head embarrassedly, "Oh, Xiaoyan..."
When Yang Yan saw his brother-in-law's expression, he knew that he had recognized Comrade Lao Xia. However, Yang Yan did not intend to hide it. Xia Xiangyang's identity was not a big secret, so he nodded to his brother-in-law with a wry smile.
"What's familiar? You've made it clear!" He Xiaoshi hadn't figured it out yet, she was anxious and angrily.
"It's Xiaoyan's father-in-law... he is the mayor, the mayor of our Hecheng. I said why is it so familiar? I saw it on TV and I only remember it now." Wang Jianjun said hesitantly. When he saw that Yang Yan didn't care, the following words became smoother.
"Mayor?" He Xiaoshi opened her eyes wide in surprise. She turned her head and looked at Yang Yan. She found that Yang Yan had no intention of denying, so she showed an incredible expression and asked, "Which mayor?"
She thought Xia Xiangyang was just an official of the director, so she had a secretary to follow her. With her imagination, she could only think of this. How could she have thought that Xia Xiangyang would still be the mayor? How could an official like the mayor be related to an ordinary civilian?
"Which mayor is there? Mayor Xia, the biggest one!" Wang Jianjun looked like "Why don't you even know this?"
"Really or not?" He Xiaoshi couldn't help looking at Yang Yan again and asked her brother for confirmation.
"It's true, Uncle Xia, he is indeed the mayor of our city. However, he doesn't like his family to be too arrogant. Xia Yu rarely puts her father's position on his lips, so we can all know, don't talk outside." Yang Yan nodded honestly and said softly.
"Yes, yes!" He Xiaoshi nodded quickly, and then she continued to sigh, "My God, is it really the mayor? We are going to be in-laws with the mayor..."
After all, she was just a small woman in the city. Faced with such a thing that was completely beyond her imagination, she still couldn't hold back the surprise in her heart!
It was not only He Xiaoshi who was shouting at home. In the other side of the building, Wang Zihao and Wang Zihan saw some special plot when they watched the cartoon. They were also shouting excitedly there, and the voices came to the yard!
Luoluo was bored listening to the adults’ chat! Now the brothers’ screams were like gunfire, which made her short legs that had been staying for a long time unable to help but move!
"Well, dad, I want to go and explore, I want to eat and eat (TV)!" Luoluo tried hard to pull his father's fingers, and hummed and wanted to drag his father into the house.
Yang Yan had to send the little guy to watch TV. On the way, he noticed that his sister, who was packing the dishes with his mother and going back to have dinner, was still talking to her mother.
"Mom, have you heard it? Xiaoyan's father-in-law is the mayor!" He Xiaoshi knew that she could not promote it to the outside world, but she had to talk to her mother all the time.
"I heard it, and I know!" Old God Lu Xiuli responded.
"Do you know?" He Xiaoshi opened her mouth in surprise again.
"I know, I recognize him as soon as he comes! I saw it on TV yesterday, why don't I recognize him?" Lu Xiuli said with a smile.
No wonder my mother was so calm when she talked to her brother-in-law and sister about this just now. It turned out that she had known that Comrade Lao Xia was the mayor!
But why didn't she say it out after she knew it?
Yang Yan couldn't help but stop as he walked, and he felt a little incredible!
He Xiaoshi asked this question for his younger brother: "Mom, you really know! Then why didn't you say it? I've been kept in the dark!"
"So what can I do if I say it? Even if he is not the mayor, now he comes to our house, isn't the identity he uses to be your brother's father-in-law?" Lu Xiuli asked calmly.
"But he is the mayor..." He Xiaoshi still finds it difficult to understand that she doesn't have the ability to cultivate qi with her mother. How can acting mayor be the same as ordinary people?
"When your father was alive, the county magistrate came to see him, and he was calm. Do you know what he said?" Lu Xiuli paused, her tone was calm, and she said in a ups and downs, "If you are inferior, you are ashamed; if you are strong, you are ashamed; if you are strong, you are as flattering, which is the most undesirable!"
"The master said..." Yang Yan stood there, looking at the figures of his mother and sister from afar and disappeared into the kitchen. The sounds of their words gradually became unaware, and Yang Yan could not help but murmur out.
The saying "If you are humble, you will be ashamed; if you are strong, you will be as flattered as you are" comes from Han Yu's "Talk of Teachers"!
Yang Yan also heard this from his father He Guoxing. Although this sentence is "If you take a low-ranking person as a teacher, you will feel ashamed, and if you take a high-ranking official as a teacher, you will be almost flattering", the old man used his treatment of people. He believed that when interacting with people with low-ranking people, you should not feel ashamed, and when interacting with high-ranking officials, you should not be humble or arrogant, and you should not flatter!
Therefore, when Mr. He was alive, when facing the county magistrate, his back was still straight. At the same time, he was willing to accept that a poor boy from a rural background, who married his daughter because he liked Wang Jianjun's sincerity, honest personality and character!
It turned out that his mother was like his father. When Yang Yan thought of this, he couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring. He was still a little ashamed because he couldn't do as humble or arrogant as his father. When facing Xia Xiangyang, Yang Yan was still restricted and most of the time!
"Well, dad..." Luo Luo'er was urging her again. She held her father's hand and hurriedly wanted to watch TV with her brothers. Why did she stop as she walked?
Yang Yan smiled, but still held her daughter's little hand and walked forward.
What Yang Yan didn't know was that he was actually thinking a little bit wrong. When facing the mayor, he was neither humble nor arrogant. This is indeed a kind of literary character! But his situation is completely different. The mayor is his father-in-law! He was not humble nor arrogant when facing his father-in-law. That was not called character, that was called 25!
There is another thing that Yang Yan doesn’t know. After Lu Xiuli and He Xiaoshi went back to the kitchen, they talked about not having a question of character. She was teaching He Xiaoshi to be her mother-in-law.
"Do you care whether the other party is a mayor or a high-ranking official? We have no long-term impact on the issue of two children. We are just parents of our respective children! At the beginning, you can't be scared to your legs and have enough confidence to talk to them about the lifelong affairs of your children! If you feel inferior at the beginning, you will have to be inferior to others in the future! Is this necessary? No, our Xiaoyan is not bad, so smart, so handsome, so sensible, and even earn money from opening a company, right? Where can you not be worthy of their children? Their family has inherited the throne, right?"
Lu's golden sentences were frequently expressed: "Of course, this is to cheer you up and you can't say it nonsense. We are neither humble nor arrogant, but we must be humble and polite. This is how to get along with our in-laws!"
