"Qingfeng deserves to be called a sea turtle. Well done!"
Everyone looked at Jiang Qingfeng with admiring gazes and praised him. Jiang Qingfeng was also very polite.
Jiang Shouren's face was full of joy as he said, "Then, let's also hold a grand celebration for the old man's seventieth birthday this time. Everyone, if you have any good old friends, please call them all over! We have to tell all the big families in Jinling that our Jiang family is doing well! "
"Haha, big brother, you are a deputy director. You have a lot of connections. If you say something, many people will come!"
Second aunt looked at Jiang Shouren and said flatteringly.
"Yes, big brother, you have been fighting steadily for the past few years. Your achievements are very obvious. I think you can be the director before you retire! "
Second uncle Jiang Yangming also flattered. Then, he slammed the table and said, "When big brother becomes the director, I want to see if any hospital dares to not buy our products! It will scare them to death! "
Jiang Shouren smiled proudly and said, "Those famous Chinese doctors and the bosses of pharmaceutical companies are nothing. This time, I will try to invite one or two big leaders from the province or city! "
"It will be different if people like them come!"
"That's right. Our Jiang Family's prestige will be established!" Everyone was instantly excited.
As they chatted, First Aunt suddenly laughed and said, "Now that you've been promoted to Knowledge Executor and become a county magistrate, you don't have to hide your connections and resources. Let's strengthen the Jiang family's prestige …"
Everyone looked at Jiang Zhixing and his family with ridicule in their eyes. They wanted to see how the third son of the Jiang family would respond.
Jiang Zhixing was only a deputy county magistrate in charge of agriculture. He had only been in office for a few months. What kind of big shots could he know?
A small county magistrate couldn't be compared to a director with real power in the provincial office. The people he knew were on a different level.
Second aunt sneered and said with disdain, "Knowledge Executor's starting point is too low. Qixia county is a godforsaken place. What kind of achievements can he make? What kind of big shots can he know?"
Hearing this, Zhang Wanqing frowned and said, "Zhixing, didn't the Guo family of Nanyang invest in the county?"
"I'm afraid … we won't be able to invite them." Jiang Zhixing shook his head bitterly.
When Guo Lili decided to invest, it was indeed because of him, and the credit was also given to him.
But from then on, she never showed her face in Qixia County again. She only sent a few executives here to build factories.
Moreover, the Guo family was the God of Wealth. The leaders of the county could not wait to flatter them, so how would they dare to trouble them?
"Zhi Xing, you have to understand that if the water is too clear, there will be no fish. It's not enough to rely on the pride of a scholar! You have to build a good relationship with all parties. Look, the Guo family is investing in your county, and you can't even invite them. This ability, tsk tsk … "
Second Aunt shook her head, her face full of sorrow and anger. She clicked her tongue and pursed her lips.
"That's right, Third Uncle. You worked for 20 years and only became a Deputy Director. Look, Sister Banxia has only worked for a few years and she is already a Deputy Director. You're rising too slowly, like a turtle! "Jiang Chao also pursed his lips and chattered. His eyebrows were raised to the point that they almost flew to the sky.
Suddenly, everyone began to mock and advise Jiang Zhixing. Even Jiang Chao, a junior, began to criticize Jiang Zhixing.
The Jiang Banxia he was referring to was the daughter of his eldest uncle, Jiang Qingfeng's younger sister.
This woman graduated from Shuimu University with a degree in finance. She was now the Deputy Director of the Investment Department of the Provincial Investment Corporation. According to her position, she was also a Deputy Director. She was one of the best among the third generation children.
Hearing this, Jiang Zhixing's face was full of embarrassment.
He was originally happy that he had been promoted, but who would have thought that in the eyes of his brothers, sisters-in-law, and even these juniors, he was climbing at the speed of a turtle. He couldn't even compare to his niece, which made him seem even more stupid.
Zhang Wanqing, who had a strong personality, was even more livid. It was as if a layer of frost had covered her face.
She was about to retort when she heard a voice full of arrogance and coldness.
"What's a mere City Hall level official? If I say the word, my dad will be at his fingertips. It's just that my dad wants to rely on his own achievements and doesn't want to be opportunistic! "
"What did you say?"
Everyone looked at Jiang Tian in unison, and they all sucked in a breath of cold air, not daring to believe it.
This was too arrogant!
The City Hall level official was a high position and many people were eyeing it. The competition was fierce, but for Jiang Tian, it was like taking something out of his pocket.
"Pfft!"
Suddenly, Jiang Chao, who had been pouting for a long time, spat out a mouthful of tea on the table, causing everyone to scream and curse.
Jiang Chao apologized and wiped the table. He looked at Zhao Xueqing and asked, "Sister-in-law Qinger, I heard from Lin Zhou's friend that my Brother Tian has lost his mind. Is this true?"
"What's the matter, Qinger?" Zhang Wanqing also felt a little strange.
For more than half a year, she couldn't contact Jiang Tian. Every time, it was Qinger who answered the phone.
In fact, Zhao Xueqing could have avoided it, but she sincerely believed that she didn't take good care of Jiang Tian. She was already full of guilt and didn't want to hide it at this time.
"Dad, Mom, it's my fault. Jiang Tian had alcohol poisoning once and his brain wasn't very good for a period of time, but it's been cured now!"
"What? Jiang Tian's brain is damaged? "
"It's so serious!"
"No wonder he said such things. His brain isn't normal!"
Everyone came to a sudden realization and cried out in surprise.
They looked at Jiang Tian with a complicated gaze. There was scrutiny, sympathy, ridicule, disdain, gloating … and so on.
Zhang Wanqing felt sorry for Jiang Tian. Her face was pale and she was also a little dissatisfied with Qinger.
Jiang Zhixing felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
His son's behavior was really laughable. He was too ignorant and incompetent. He was simply a lunatic!
He slammed the table and gritted his teeth. "Drinking can damage your brain? What do you want me to say to you!"
"Jiang Tian is not crazy. He's a master. How can he be crazy?" Jiang Lin suddenly stood up and spoke for Jiang Tian.
"Shut up!"
Second Uncle scolded sternly. "If he's not crazy, why would he say such nonsense?"
Jiang Lin's face was bitter and she didn't dare to speak anymore.
"Jiang Tian, don't talk nonsense, especially at the old man's birthday banquet. Don't attend it! Don't make a fool of yourself! "
Jiang Shouren's authority was very strong. He suppressed his anger and slammed the table.
Jiang Qingfeng looked at Jiang Tian with disdain and snorted in his heart. "Trash, now you know the consequences of being arrogant!"
Jiang Chao didn't forget to add insult to injury. He shook his head and said, "I was wondering why he was so arrogant that he didn't even take Yu Qiang seriously. It turns out that he is crazy! He even won a sports car from Yu Qiang this morning! "
"What?"
"Is he the son of Secretary Yu of the Political and Legal Committee?"
Everyone turned pale with fright when they heard this. They turned to look at Jiang Tian in unison, their faces filled with disbelief.
"Isn't that so?"
Jiang Chao picked his teeth lazily and sneered. "When I was gambling on stones, I met Young Master Qiang a few times. I wanted to introduce him to Cousin Qingfeng. But after Yu Qiang lost the sports car, his eyes were murderous!
"Later, I brought Brother Qingfeng to Six Dynasties Residence to find him, but he ignored me. Guo Yinlin was also there … "
Jiang Chao recounted everything that had happened from beginning to end.
"Qingfeng, is what Jiang Chao said true?" Jiang Shouren asked sternly.
"It's true …" Jiang Qingfeng sighed regretfully.
Bang!
Jiang Shouren slammed the table and trembled with anger. He pointed at Jiang Tian and said, "This is such a rare opportunity, but it was ruined by this guy. Even Jiang Chao knows how to make friends with them, but you … "
Great Aunt was so angry that her hands were trembling.
Jiang Zhixing quickly said, "Brother, don't worry. Xiao Tian said that he will return the car …"
"He has already offended them. What's the use of returning it?" Jiang Shouren said angrily.
"Why should I return it to him? It's such a simple principle to admit defeat. Uncle, don't you understand? I'm giving him face by accepting a car from him. He can't wait to curry favor with me! "
Jiang Tian sipped his tea and said leisurely.
Jiang Shouren was so angry that his face turned pale. He covered his chest with a painful expression and went to find the small medicine bottle with trembling hands. He almost had a heart attack.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry. Don't lower yourself to his level!"
Great Aunt quickly fed him the medicine. After rubbing his chest for a while, Jiang Shouren's face returned to normal.
"How dare you say that your uncle doesn't understand reason? What are you talking about? "
Jiang Yangming was so angry that his face turned pale. He pointed at Jiang Tian and said, "You're crazy. Apologize to your uncle now!"
"That's right! Kid, you have no respect for your elders. You don't even listen to your uncle! "Second Uncle echoed.
"Apologize now!" Great Aunt also scolded.
"You're not even as good as Jiang Chao. No matter how much of a jerk Jiang Chao is, he just eats, drinks, and plays. He never causes trouble. But what about you? Not only did you offend that Yanjing Young Master, but now that you're back, you're causing trouble again! "
Great Aunt's face was full of sorrow and anger.
"Jiang Tian, you're really wrong this time!"
Jiang Qingfeng shook his head and sighed. His eyes were full of schadenfreude. "You won a car, but how much is that? And the losses that will come from offending Yu Qiang are immeasurable. You're losing the big picture for the small! "
"Apologize!"
Jiang Banxia, Jiang Chao, and the other third-generation descendants roared. They hated Jiang Tian so much that they wanted to pull out his tendons and skin him alive to vent their hatred.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you scaring Uncle Jiang Tian? "
Jiang Waner was so scared that she burst into tears.
Great Aunt pulled her over and scolded, "Stay away from him in the future. He'll teach you bad things!"
"Apologize now!"
Many members of the Jiang family looked at Jiang Tian, who was sitting at the end of the table. Their eyes were full of anger, contempt, ridicule, and hatred.
Jiang Zhixing was angry and sad at the same time. He was completely disappointed in Jiang Tian.
Jiang Tian, you're too disappointing. How much more trouble are you going to cause? How many times can I help you clean up the mess?
At this time, even Zhang Wanqing was speechless. Jiang Tian's mistake was indeed difficult to make up for and clean up.
At this moment, only Zhao Xueqing still stood firmly on Jiang Tian's side. She was about to speak up for him.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Tian spoke first. "Who does he think he is? Is he worthy of me apologizing to him?"
Everyone was stunned, their faces filled with disbelief.
They were already used to reprimanding Jiang Tian. They did not expect that Jiang Tian would actually retort so forcefully.
