Chapter 953: Guests Arrive
Chapter 953: Guests Arrive
Everyone in the Yang family who was already seated in the backyard, whether they were collateral or direct descendants, held their breath and stared at the entrance.
The scene suddenly fell silent.
At this time, someone suddenly shouted outside the Yang family’s backyard door:
"Tian Sheng Group, Chairman Lin Jiaxi is here!"
At the door, led by the waiter invited by the Yang family, a middle-aged man dressed in a suit and leather shoes walked in.
When they saw it was him, some people's expressions remained unchanged and they seemed not to care much about the visitor, while others discussed in low voices:
"Tiansheng Group, with a market value of nearly one billion, is a very powerful company. It is very important for the chairman to come in person, but I don't know who invited it."
"It should be from Sanzi's family." Yang Lei whispered.
Sure enough, the third son of the Yang family, Yang Momo's third uncle, and his family had already stood up and went to greet him. He said with a smile on his face: "Boss Lin, thank you so much. You are so busy that I need you to make a special trip."
Lin Jiaxi smiled and said: "No matter how busy you are at your Yang family's banquet, I will still come. Besides, it's your invitation, brother."
These words were undoubtedly meant to give face to the third son of the Yang family. After hearing this, the smile on the latter's face grew stronger and he hurriedly greeted:
"You're welcome, you're welcome, come on, come on in."
In the luxurious shed set up in the backyard, nine round tables representing Yang Kaitai's nine children, five sons and four daughters, are arranged in order.
However, the order is also arranged. The one closest to the door is the Yang Lei family, and the one closest to the long table is the Yang Pengyun family.
This was the arrangement made by Yang Kaitai during the Yang family's small gathering yesterday. This undoubtedly represents the strength of each family in some respects.
When the third son of the Yang family walked in with Lin Jiaxi, Yang Lei's family quickly stood up to show respect.
Only Zhou Yi was sitting there drinking tea leisurely, not noticing the crazy wink his aunt Yang Lei gave him.
However, Lin Jiaxi's eyes were not on Yang Lei's family at all, and he did not see Zhou Yi's "disrespect". He walked quickly inside, and table after table of direct descendants of the Yang family stood up to say hello.
Until the third to last table, where the fifth son of the Yang family was seated, the latter just sat and nodded to Lin Jiaxi. Obviously Lin Jiaxi's identity was not enough to make the five sons of the Lin family stand up.
Lin Jiaxi had no objection at all. Instead, he smiled and greeted the five sons of the Lin family, and then greeted Lin Qiu, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, and Yang Pengyun, the eldest son of the Lin family, who were sitting at the round table behind.
With a respectful look, he spoke a few words to Yang Kaitai who was sitting on the long table, and then he made it to the round table where the three sons of the Yang family were sitting.
Yang Kaitai nodded slightly and said nothing. A boss with a net worth of only hundreds of millions could not catch his eye.
As soon as Lin Jiaxi sat down, the announcement sounded at the door again. It was almost time and all the guests invited by each family had arrived.
There were more and more discussions at the scene. Almost every time a guest came, other people would comment on their background and guess which company invited the guests. Another interesting point was.
Because Mr. Yang Kaitai is highly respected and has a high status, whenever guests visit the Yang family, no matter which family they invite, they will go to the long table to say hello to Yang Kaitai respectfully before sitting down, and this process will Passing by nine round tables representing the nine children.
When encountering guests who are more powerful than themselves, these children and their families will take the initiative to stand up and say hello to show respect.
For example, when the first guest, Lin Jiaxi, just arrived, all the direct descendants of the Yang family stood up at the nine round tables.
The number of onlookers from the nine Yang families standing up will verify the extent of the guest's background.
For a time, the atmosphere at the scene was very heated.
"Jiang Chenghao, the head of the Jiang family in the north of the city, came to visit."
"Although the Jiang family is only a third-rate family, it is a great honor for the head of the family to come and visit in person."
"This should be a guest of my fourth uncle's family. I remember that he and the head of the Jiang family are classmates. The two of them often drink together. The head of a third-rate family should be able to make five direct families stand up from nine."
"Li Yufeng, general manager of Sanfeng Group, came to visit."
"This is a company with a market value of about one billion. Although it is stronger than Lin Jiaxi's Tiansheng Group before, after all, it is only the general manager. In terms of connections, the weight should be about the same."
"This is a guest from my aunt's family. She and my aunt are best friends. However, compared to the status of my aunt's family, this guest is not very important, but it is the icing on the cake."
"Qi Baifeng, chairman of Beicheng Wanhua Group, came to visit."
"Wow, this is a big shot. Wanhua Group is one of the top [-] companies in Tiancheng, with a market value of nearly [-] billion. With his status, nine direct line companies may have to stand up to seven."
"Wrong, it should be the Eighth House, because this is the guest of the uncle's family. No matter how big the portion is, the guests of your own family must stand up to greet you. You can see Yang Mingming standing up."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, a guest of this level would probably have to be handled with care in other homes. The uncle's family actually only asked a junior to greet him. He is indeed very wealthy!"
As the sky darkened, the bright crystal lamps in the shed lit up, and there were more and more guests. Sometimes, three or four of the nine families stood up at the same time to greet the guests.
"Qian Duoduo, a direct descendant of the Qian family from the east of the city, came to visit."
"The chairman of Sanju Group came to visit."
"The chairman of Northwest Mining Co., Ltd. came to visit."
"The general manager of Qise Entertainment Company came to visit..."
"..."
The nine round tables under the greenhouse were originally sparsely populated by direct descendants of the nine families, but now some of the round tables are almost full.
Although some customers just come here to "make soy sauce" and the portions are not very large, it still looks "pretty" if it is full.
The current guests are mainly visiting Yang Pengyun, the eldest son of the Yang family, Yang Qiu, the daughter of the Yang family, and the five sons of the Yang family.
There are other direct lineage dishes too, but the portions are not very high.
But as time passed, an embarrassing thing happened, that is, there were still only four people sitting at Yang Lei's table.
Yang Lei and his wife, as well as Zhou Yi and Yang Momo.
In other words, no guests have visited them yet.
Although the guests continued to come, many eyes around him looked over, and there were already whispers of discussion.
"What's going on at my second aunt's house? I only saw them getting up to say hello, but not a single guest stopped."
"No wonder the second aunt's face looked so ugly after the party yesterday. It turned out that no guests were invited. Now it's embarrassing. Although other direct descendants can't compete with the uncle's house, many guests came and the scene looked good. Second Aunt It’s too embarrassing to not have a single customer. If I were her, I would just leave.”
"If I were her, I would just want to find a crack in the ground and crawl in. Forget it if this is just a simple gathering of the Yang family, but there are so many guests and so many outsiders. If word spreads, it will be a big loss for the second aunt and her family. , I feel embarrassed just thinking about it.”
"Actually, the second aunt was very powerful when she was young. There were even rumors at that time that the old man would directly pass the position of head of the family to her. But later, because of the second uncle's incident, she had a bad fight with the family, and then she was squeezed out of the inner circle. …”
