Invincible in games

Chapter 144 Contradictions
"Only once a year, if you don't go, other people will gossip."

Dou Jianguo looked at Li Aihong and asked tentatively.

Li Aihong said angrily.

"Every time I go, those relatives of your family look down on others. Every time I go, our family is the object of ridicule, and they are all angry, and then come back. I don't know what's wrong. Good to go."

Dou Jianguo said.

"Our family is different now. Now that you have opened a supermarket, and your son bought us such a nice house, our conditions are no worse than theirs."

Li Aihong said.

"That's it, I don't want to go either."

Not only Li Aihong was upset when he heard the family reunion, but Dou Xiaotian and Dou Xiaomeng frowned when they heard the family reunion.

Parents were not taken seriously, and they were ridiculed and couldn't hold their heads up when they went. Since they were young, the two of them had quarreled with relatives' children.

When Dou Xiaotian was a child, even because of their ridicule and bullying Dou Xiaomeng, he fought with them a lot.

In the end, under Dou Jianguo's persuasion, the family decided to go, and it was just a formality. Anyway, this matter cannot be avoided.

Dou's family is in Su County. Although there are not many people, it is also a big family. The father is the eldest, and there are two younger brothers and two younger sisters. The number is quite large.

Compared to Dou Jianguo, the others are doing relatively well. Even the worst second uncle has opened a mid-range restaurant, and the best third uncle is an official in a foreign state-owned enterprise, and his family has reached the deputy director level.

The two aunts married well. Although they were not good at the beginning, they gradually developed.

Only Dou Xiaotian's father has been a small employee of the state-owned enterprise in the county since he went to work, and he is still a small employee of the state-owned enterprise now.

All other families are making progress, but Dou Xiaotian's family is not making progress, and is even worse than before. Naturally, relatives look down on their family.

Don't talk about relatives, it's grandparents, because my father has no future, when he was young, he actually treated Dou Xiaotian and Dou Xiaomeng differently from the other children.

Dou Xiaotian went to his grandparents' house before, and gave the good snacks and fruits to the children of other families, and it was Dou Xiaotian and Dou Xiaomeng's turn when things were not good.

Even when there are not enough snacks, Dou Xiaotian and Dou Xiaomeng can only watch them eat.

Ruyilou Hotel, VIP private rooms.

Two middle-aged men are talking.

"Second brother, your restaurant business is good, and you have made a lot of money."

"It's nothing, it's just earning hundreds of thousands, just making ends meet."

"Second brother, Xiao Cheng said that he didn't work in Yan's Group recently, but worked with you. I think this is good. What business needs is the cooperation of father and son."

"As the saying goes, brothers who fight tigers are brothers, and fathers and sons fight in battle."

"Third brother, let me accept your good words. You were smart when you were young, and you can be seen as a star of Wenqu. After graduation, you are the first person in our family to become an official and a deputy."

"I heard that the head of your department is old and will retire soon. You are in the prime of life now. In a few years, the position of director will definitely be yours."

"Second brother was joking, I'm just one of several deputy directors, and I'm still far from being the director."

"It's almost time for dinner, everyone is here, brother, come quickly."

"Third Brother, you know that Big Brother always comes here for lunch."

"Let's not talk about that, brother, is he still working in that half-dead company? When I asked last time, that company was about to close down."

"It's still there, but now the company is even worse. Even if it doesn't go bankrupt this year, it probably won't survive next year."

The two who spoke, one was Dou Xiaotian's second uncle, Dou Guoqing, and the other was Dou Xiaotian's third uncle, Dou Jianjun, standing in the private room, chatting with each other.

Besides the two of them, other women were also talking in the private room, but they were talking about cosmetics and the latest fashion clothes.

As the door of the private room was opened, the private room suddenly became quiet, and Dou Xiaotian's family came in.

Seeing Dou Xiaotian's family coming in, the eyes of other people in the private room gathered towards Dou Xiaotian's family at once, everyone looked at their family with a scrutiny in their eyes.

Dou Jianjun was the first to react and said.

"Brother is here."

Dou Jianguo said.

"Third brother."

Dou Jianguo then greeted everyone with a smile, while Dou Xiaotian and Dou Xiaomeng followed behind Dou Jianguo with professional smiles on their faces.

Although they are disgusted with these relatives in their hearts, they still have to do the superficial work for the sake of face.

Just when Aunt Dou Jianguo finished greeting, Dou Xiaotian's second uncle, Dou Guoqing, suddenly spoke.

"Brother, your family's personality is still the same as before. Every time you come here for lunch, when you know it, you think you are here for a party. I don't know, you think you are here for dinner."

Just as Dou Guoqing finished speaking, the second uncle said suddenly.

"Second brother, it's a little too much for you to talk like this. No matter what, you are all relatives. There is no need to slander your elder brother like this. Even if you know the truth, you can't tell it."

Dou Guoqing suddenly laughed and said.

"I did go a little too far. I punished myself with a glass of wine."

However, from the expression on his face, it was not obvious at all that he had the slightest remorse in his heart, but there was an indescribable joke in his tone from time to time.

Standing behind his father, Dou Xiaotian listened to the conversation of several people, and he felt unspeakable anger in his heart. Before he came, he knew that these people couldn't say anything good, but after he came, he found that it was so.

Dou Guoqing looked at Dou Jianguo with provocative eyes. He still remembered the fact that his son Dou Cheng was expelled from the Yan Group.

Every time he thinks about it, his heart is full of anger. At the beginning, he could hold it back, but later, he asked a few people and got the news that Dou Xiaotian and Yan Lan were just ordinary friends, and Dou Xiaotian and Yan's Qianjin, it is simply impossible.

At this time, the scruples in his heart were gone, and all that was left was anger.

For him, this banquet was an opportunity to vent his anger. He knew that he didn't dare to say anything because of Dou Jianguo's character anyway.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, at this moment, the aunt suddenly smoothed things over and said.

"We're all in one family. There's some noise. It's unavoidable. Second brother, please don't say a few words. Big brother, please sit down first."

At this time, Dou Xiaotian found something casually and was about to sit down. His father and younger sister also planned to sit down next to Dou Xiaotian, but they didn't sit down, the second uncle said suddenly.

"Brother, that is our home location."

The second aunt also stood up and said at this time.

"Brother, sit by the door at your house. Later, when the waiter serves the food, you can help carry the dishes."

When Dou Jianguo heard what the two of them said, his movement to sit down suddenly stopped. He was filled with embarrassment, whether he wanted to sit down or not.

At this time, Dou Xiaotian had already sat down. He looked at this position. Although it was not the best, it was still good.The best position in this VIP room is against the wall. Sit north and south, so you can grasp the overall situation. With the back against the wall, you have no worries.

The worst location is the one near the door, where the waiters come in and out, and the guests sitting there sometimes need help.

Usually, only the person with the lowest status sits in that position.

In previous years, Dou Xiaotian's family always sat in that position. During a meal, everyone else was eating and talking, and there were only a few members of their family, serving like a waiter.

Dou Xiaotian said.

"We'll just sit here."

No matter what his father said, he was also the eldest in the family. In the early days, whether it was his aunt or uncle, his father had done his best.

Among other things, they were able to successfully graduate from school because their father paid their tuition fees with the hard earned money. Otherwise, the situation of Dou Xiaotian's family would not be like it is today.

I don’t know when they started to have these relatives in their family. They could only see their father’s humbleness and no longer see his father’s contribution.

Dou Xiaotian thought in his heart that maybe they didn't see it, but pretended not to see it, for fear that Dou Xiaotian's family would ask them for money, so that they wouldn't have to be responsible to Dou Xiaotian's family.

Sheng Mien, fight against Mien.

In this world, if grace is too heavy, it will turn into hatred.

Hearing Dou Xiaotian's words, the second uncle was a little angry, looked at Dou Xiaotian and said.

"Xiaotian, just after being admitted to Zhonghai University, did you feel that your wings have hardened, and you dare to talk back to the elders in the family."

Dou Xiaotian said.

"Second uncle, I remember that when you were looking for a job, you wanted to have a relationship with the leader. At that time, you were just married and your family was poor. At that time, you came to my house to borrow money, and my dad gave you the money without saying a word. .Now, more than ten years have passed, and you have never said anything about repaying the money, nor have you said words of thanks."

"Second aunt, at that time you made a mistake in the company and you were going to be expelled from the company. At that time, all relatives were watching with cold eyes, and no one helped. It was my father who accompanied you around to apologize to others, nodded and bowed, and gave money back. Things get over with."

As soon as Dou Xiaotian said the words, the expressions of the second uncle and the second aunt suddenly became very embarrassing. These were the last things they wanted to bring up the black history, and they didn't expect Dou Xiaotian to mention it.

The third uncle saw that the atmosphere was a little awkward. As the host of this banquet, he felt a little angry. Dou Xiaotian couldn't open the pot, and at the same time, he had to come out to smooth things over.

he opened his mouth to speak.

"Xiaotian, this is something that happened in the past, so why bring it up?"

Dou Xiaotian said.

"I just want to mention, I just want to ask, why my dad is not qualified to sit in other places, our family always does that doorway, and mentions your service like a waiter."

Second Uncle said.

"This is not what my brother asked at the beginning, nor is it what we mean."

When the second uncle said this, the other relatives seemed to have found an interface, and all of them said this in unison, talking about what happened back then.

The third uncle saw that everyone was talking, but Dou Xiaotian didn't plan to get up yet, so he came out to beat his brother and said haha.

"Isn't it just a seat, Second Sister, since Big Brother wants to sit there, just sit there."

He looked at the second aunt's family and said.

"Eldest brother sits there every time. It's really my fault. Second sister, second brother-in-law, this time it's just your family sitting there. If something happens later, please take care of it."

With the third uncle's words, this matter was finally settled.

However, although the second aunt agreed to the matter, from her face, it seemed that she was very reluctant. If the second uncle was not an authority in the family and forced her to go, she would not have agreed.

At this time, other people were afraid of accidents, so they basically sat down. The second aunt and second uncle passed by slowly, and after sitting down, they stared at Dou Xiaotian for a few times.

It's all Dou Xiaotian's fault, making their family a bit ashamed this time.

Father sat beside Dou Xiaotian, he looked a little cramped and embarrassed, he said to Dou Xiaotian.

"Xiaotian, we are all a family, there is no need for this."

Li Aihong looked at Dou Xiaotian and whispered triumphantly.

"I feel that there is nothing wrong with Xiaotian's actions. He is indeed my son. He has a personality like mine. If you ask me, it should have been like this a long time ago. We are all a family. You can't catch honest people and keep bullying them."

Dou Xiaotian said.

"Father, although the matter is a small matter, you can't dare to do it like this. They do this every year. It's a bit deceiving. It's time to beat them."

"The old saying doesn't mean that a good person is bullied by others. You are too honest and kind."

Li Aihong heard Dou Xiaotian's words and said.

"There is nothing wrong with my son's words."

Dou Xiaomeng looked at Dou Xiaotian, she felt that Dou Xiaotian didn't know that since the above time, something has changed, he has become more confident, brave and temperamental.

After the farce just now, although everyone sat down, the shock in their hearts was still not removed. The original lively scene disappeared all of a sudden, and everyone was thinking about things in their hearts.

The third uncle saw a good banquet and was made into such a mess, he needed to ease the atmosphere, he said to the second uncle.

"Go call the waiter and start serving the food."

He thought in his heart that after the meeting, when everyone eats, the atmosphere will gradually improve, and this little thing will pass away.

The second uncle agreed.

The speed of the restaurant is very fast. It took less than 5 minutes to tell, and more than [-] dishes were served. The third uncle stood up at this time, and was caught when he picked it up, and said.

"It's the mid-autumn festival again, and it's hard for us to get together once. While everyone is here, let's hold up the wine glasses and have one, wishing us good luck every year."

The third uncle picked up his wine glass and stood up, and everyone else also picked up their wine glasses and stood up.

After drinking for three rounds, it was time to eat vegetables. Everyone started to eat unceremoniously. As they ate and ate, the lively atmosphere just now returned a lot.

Everyone started talking about what everyone had seen and heard recently, but only Dou Xiaotian's family seemed to be forgotten by everyone, and no one came to talk.
