Rebirth: Official Fortune Prosperity

At this time, the door opened again, and Father Liu walked into the room with a somewhat unnatural smile and said, "The food is ready. Let's eat first and chat while eating..."

Seeing his father's expression, Liu Fusheng knew that his mother must have secretly told his father about Chief Bai's identity.

The parents are simple by nature. After learning that Chief Bai was the leader of Yanjing, they became obviously more reserved and not as casual as before.

Chief Bai saw everything in his eyes. His behavior was exactly the same as before, without deliberately raising or lowering his attitude: "Thank you for your hard work, brother and sister-in-law. I have always said that just make some home-cooked dishes. You have been preparing for so long. The dishes are It must be very rich, right?”

Father Liu said with a smile: "Not too much, just a dozen dishes..."

The New Year's Eve dinner at home usually only consists of eight dishes, but today we actually prepared more than a dozen dishes. Are your parents going to show off their cooking skills?

Anyway, the food is ready, so naturally we sit down and start eating.

After Chief Bai took his seat, he looked at the sumptuous farm food and sincerely expressed his gratitude again.

Liu's mother waved her hands with a smile and said: "Fu Sheng only comes home once a year. Brother Bai is an important and rare guest. It is normal for the dishes to be rich. Xiao Bai, don't you think so? These dishes, but you Favorite food.”

Bai Ruochu looked at the dishes and smiled sweetly and said: "Thank you, Auntie, I knew you must be thinking of me. This time you cooked all the dishes I said I liked to eat in the past few years. I am so happy." "

Hearing this, Father Liu, Mother Liu, and Chief Bai all laughed.

Father Liu and Mother Liu felt that Xiaobai's satisfaction was better than anything else.

Chief Bai even felt that if his daughter was satisfied, he would be satisfied.

Unknowingly, the five people sitting around the dining table had created an atmosphere of family-like intimacy.

Chief Bai made an exception and drank two glasses of wine in a row, and then said to Liu's father: "Brother, I told Fusheng in the room just now that the purpose of my coming here is to discuss Fusheng and Ruochu's marriage."

Upon hearing this, Father Liu and Mother Liu put down their chopsticks, with surprise on their faces.

The two of them had long wanted Liu Fusheng to get married.

Liu's mother slapped her thigh and said, "Oh, Brother Bai, it's our fault. The man should have proposed the marriage first. It's really not right for you to open your mouth like this."

Chief Bai said: "Brothers and sisters, these red tapes are not important. What is important is that the two children like each other and can live happily together. In addition, don't mention the bride price. I already said it last time we met, Our family is different from ordinary families, and we don’t value so-called betrothal gifts.”

Mother Liu shook her head and said, "How can we not give a bride price? How can any girl come to the door without asking for a bride price? It would be so embarrassing to tell anyone."

Liu Fusheng said: "Mom, free love is popular now. If two people get together because of a bride price, it means there is no foundation for love at all."

Mother Liu frowned and said, "If the woman doesn't want it, do you really want to give it to me? You made so much money from writing books, and my mother has saved it. This is the gift the family has prepared for you, as well as the two songs you sang." , We didn’t spend any money on the copyright. Even if we buy a wedding room for you and Xiaobai in Yanjing, it would be more than enough.”

Liu Fusheng sighed helplessly.

Chief Bai smiled and said: "Brothers and sisters, you and Brother Liu should listen to me on this matter. There is no need for a bride price. Strictly speaking, our work discipline does not allow this kind of thing."

Bai Ruochu said: "Auntie, now that the country advocates anti-corruption and upholding integrity, we must keep everything simple. We definitely cannot accept this betrothal gift. Moreover, future weddings must not be too extravagant and wasteful."

Liu's mother sighed and said, "As an official, my hands are tied. Even important life events like marriage can't be properly planned!"

Liu's father advised: "Okay, now we have to keep pace with the times in everything we do. Our old ideas are not suitable for state cadres like Brother Bai and Fu Sheng."

The Bai family insisted on not wanting the bride price, and Liu's mother immediately asked: "Brother Bai, when do you think it is better for them to get married?"

Chief Bai did not answer this question, but looked at Liu Fusheng and Bai Ruochu.

Liu Fusheng pondered: "Xiaobai still has a very important thing to do, and I don't want her to still have regrets when she gets married."

"We made an agreement to resolve the matter before we get married, or wait five years. Regardless of whether the matter is resolved or not, we will come together and bear everything together."

Five years?

There was a hint of warmth in Bai Ruochu's eyes. She knew that Liu Fusheng was determined to help her solve her brother's problem, or to help the Bai family and the Tang family.

This is not only an engagement, but also Liu Fusheng's promise to Bai Ruochu.

Liu's father and Liu's mother didn't know anything about this.

Mother Liu frowned and said, "Five years? How long does it take? Tell us what's going on and let's see if we can help solve it."

Father Liu touched his wife's leg under the table and said, "Why are you asking so much about the child? I have a request. You must be worthy of the country and the people, and you must not do anything illegal or dishonest. We The family tradition is to behave in an upright manner.”

Liu Fusheng nodded and said, "Don't worry, Dad, I will definitely keep your words in mind."

Bai Ruochu also made a solemn promise to Liu's father and Liu's mother: "Uncle and aunt, don't worry, I believe that we will be able to live together in less than five years."

After chatting about serious things, we started to chat about some casual topics, and the atmosphere at the dinner table became more and more lively.

Father Liu took advantage of the wine to chat with Chief Bai more and more passionately.

Chief Bai said: "I thought Brother Liu was not good at talking, but I didn't expect that Brother Liu is a talented person. Only after drinking wine can he show off his talents."

Father Liu smiled and said: "Brother Bai, I have always been a farmer from birth to now. I only know how to farm and know nothing else. Compared with you, I have no talent at all. The difference is that You look up, and I look down."

"I have always told Fu Sheng that life is not easy for ordinary people. Now that he is an official, he must live up to his conscience and consider the people more when doing things. Only in this way will the people sincerely support you. Otherwise, even if you are an official no matter how good you are, Damn, the common people are also going to poke your spine.”

Mother Liu quickly poked Father Liu: "Are you drunk? What nonsense are you talking about."

Chief Bai nodded and said, "What Brother Liu said is very reasonable. Only a person like Brother Liu can cultivate a child like Fusheng."

Through this meal, Chief Bai discovered that Liu Fusheng inherited his mother's all-around talent, but deep down, he was still a man like his father, who was cautious in doing things and upright at heart.

This discovery made Chief Bai very happy. It meant that Liu Fusheng had the background to reach high places and even step onto the stage of history.
