Chapter 136: and translation of chapter title

Xiao Junrong's mother hurriedly brought out the food and drink from home.

"Hello, I'm Yun Zhe, Xiao Yunzhe, I'm one year older than you." Xiao Yunzhe and Xiao Junrong also began to speak.

"Well, then you're my brother, welcome, welcome you back home." By this time, Xiao Junrong still felt dazed.

However, the few kids were similar in age, and they quickly got along.

Seeing Xiao Ming look his way, Xiao Junrong hurriedly greeted him: "Uncle."

"Ah!" Xiao Ming laughed and nodded.

Seeing Xiao Ming's attitude so gentle, and this uncle from the start gave him an inexplicable sense of closeness, he cheerfully chatted with Xiao Ming: "Uncle, since I can remember, I've always heard my grandfather talk about you."

"I've heard about you for over ten years; I never expected to actually meet you today."

"I also never imagined there would be a day we could reunite." Xiao Ming replied in a good mood.

In the subsequent conversation, Xiao Ming gained some understanding of Xiao Junrong.

"Uncle?" After a while of talking, Xiao Junrong suddenly recalled his superior's attitude toward this great-uncle, and curiously asked: "Xiang Jiangtao, do you know him? What's your relationship?"

Xiao Ming blinked slightly, then replied: "You know Xiang Jiangtao?"

"Yes!" Xiao Junrong nodded: "He's my direct superior."

"Really?" Xiao Ming was a little surprised, then laughed heartily.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Junrong actually works at his company.

"I'm his boss; this matter can't be explained in a sentence or two—we'll talk in detail when we have time." Xiao Ming laughed: "Right now, the most important thing is to settle your marriage properly; don't worry, I said I'll give you a grand wedding, and I will."

Xiao Junrong remained stunned: this great-uncle is his boss's boss?

What's going on?

What background does this uncle actually have? Although he hasn't shown any extraordinary talent since appearing, his demeanor is exceptional, and Xiao Junrong secretly looked forward to his wedding.

"Hehe, then let you, Uncle, worry." Xiao Junrong hehe laughed, directly telling him that this uncle would absolutely not let him down.

"You kid, why be so polite with Uncle? We're family; if you need Uncle's help with anything, just tell me. Come, let's talk about your wedding."

At that moment, Xiao Junrong's mother Sun Qiuyue was discussing the wedding with the family.

Sun Qiuyue sighed helplessly and said: "Huihui's aunt demands we raise the banquet standard; in this short time, how could we arrange anything at the hotel? Even if they could arrange it, we couldn't come up with the money right away."

"I think Huihui's aunt is basically a bloodsucker, trying to sell Huihui to our family."

"Indeed, she's squeezed our family dry, and it's still not enough."

Those in the house complained.

"Sister-in-law, hello, I'm Xiao Ming, Xinran's cousin." Having heard the gist, Xiao Ming walked over and greeted Xiao Junrong's mother.

Having heard Xiao Ming and father-in-law Xiao Shan say so much, Sun Qiuyue already knew his identity, but now she's worried about her son Xiao Junrong's matter, really not in the mood for pleasantries, she gave a bitter smile and replied: "Big brother, welcome back."

Sun Qiuyue looks to be in her forties.

"Sister-in-law, where is the hotel where Junrong is holding the banquet set?"

"In town, following Huihui's aunt's demand, we booked the town's best hotel, thirty tables; now they want it raised to fifty tables, and the food and drink must be the best."

"This demand, we really..." Sun Qiuyue is truly at her wit's end; for this wedding, the Xiao family is truly out of options.

She truly worries that Huihui's aunt making things so difficult will prevent the two children from marrying; what will her son do afterward?

"Cancel that hotel; I'll arrange the venue." Xiao Ming said calmly, his tone light yet carrying an undeniable certainty.

"What?"

The people in the room all looked at Xiao Ming in shock.

By now it's noon; tomorrow is the wedding, only half a day to prepare—if we cancel the hotel now, where could we find a better one?

After Sun Qiuyue's initial shock, she stammered: "Big, big brother, you want to cancel it—where will Junrong's wedding be held?"

"To the Di Yun Can Ting in the city." Xiao Ming replied: "Sister-in-law, go tell our guests that the wedding will be moved to Di Yun Can Ting in the city; any willing relatives are invited, and if needed we can arrange pick-up and drop-off."

Sun Qiuyue and the relatives in the room, who have lived in the countryside all their lives, didn't know what Di Yun Can Ting was.

They didn't know, but Xiao Junrong did; he'd never been there, but he'd heard it's not a place ordinary people can afford, and that those who dine there are super-rich.

That's the most extravagant high-end restaurant in Yun Cheng.

It's a money-burning place; ordinary people there can't even afford a bottle of water.

"Uncle, that, that restaurant..." Xiao Junrong was so surprised he could hardly speak.

"Hmm?" Xiao Ming voiced his doubt.

Seeing her son's reaction, Sun Qiuyue puzzledly asked for clarification, and Xiao Junrong briefly explained the situation of that restaurant.

After hearing Xiao Junrong's explanation, everyone in the room was dumbfounded.

"Such a high-end restaurant must cost a lot—at least starting at two hundred thousand."

Everyone in the room looked at Xiao Ming in astonishment—how wealthy must this nephew of Xiao Shan be to dare hold a wedding at such a high-end place?

Actually, they underestimated it; holding a wedding there would cost several million at least.

Xiao Ming also didn't tell them all that; explaining would take three days and nights: "Sister-in-law, go tell the relatives; other matters, I'll handle."

"Okay." Sun Qiuyue replied bluntly.

After Xiao Junrong came to his senses, he was both startled and delighted.

Xiang Jiangtao is a big shot in Yun Cheng, able to swagger wherever he goes, yet in front of his own great-uncle, he acts remarkably respectful.

This uncle says he's Xiang Jiangtao's boss—what a powerful bigwig he must be!

Moreover, this uncle is so easygoing; having such a powerful uncle means the Xiao family might from now on reach the pinnacle of life.

Just thinking about it makes Xiao Junrong's heart feel wonderful.

He had some speculations and questions, wanting to confirm them with this uncle, but after thinking, he decided against it.
