Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Niu Chunsheng and Lin Xiaofang were whispering outside the New Era Restaurant, while inside, Xiao Xueqing was warmly chatting with the Wang family.

"You three brothers truly each have your own characteristics—just as the saying goes, a dragon begets nine sons, each different, referring precisely to your situation!"

Xiao Xueqing said to Wang Zhanggen and Li Xiulan at this time: "Uncle, Auntie, with three such outstanding sons, you can enjoy blessings in the future!"

Wang Zhanggen had a face full of pride and arrogance:

"That goes without saying—none of my Wang Zhanggen's sons is a coward!"

Li Xiulan smiled with a simple, honest face:

"As long as they're all safe and sound, that's enough; enjoying blessings can wait until later."

Xiao Xueqing said to Wang Dashan at this time:

"Dashan, once you've made it in your career, don't forget your parents—she suffered in the rural area for half her life, all for you and your two younger brothers; you must treat your parents well."

Wang Dashan politely nodded in response:

"Of course—our parents raised us with kindness; no matter what, I will definitely treat them well."

Xiao Xueqing smiled and said:

"Why don't we add each other on WeChat? Then it'll be convenient to contact each other if anything comes up."

Wang Dashan smiled and agreed:

"Sure, sure."

He patted his pocket:

"Oh no, I actually forgot my phone—it must be in the car. Xiao Juan, why don't you add County Magistrate Xiao's WeChat with your phone?"

"Okay, okay, then I'll add County Magistrate Xiao first with my phone."

Du Xiaojuan smiled and answered, taking out her mobile phone.

Wang Dashan said to Xiao Xueqing with an apologetic face: "County Magistrate Xiao, Xiao Juan is my partner; adding her is the same as adding me. Later I'll have Xiao Juan forward your WeChat to me, and then I'll add you—do you think that's all right?"

Xiao Xueqing was stunned for a moment; she had actually seen at a glance that Wang Dashan's phone was right in his suit pocket, yet he pulled something like this.

But Xiao Xueqing didn't get angry about it at all.

Instead, she found Wang Dashan adorable.

This man was too loyal to his own woman!

It was just adding a WeChat—it wasn't like she was going to eat him—and yet he had to beat around the bush to have his partner add first, just to give his partner a sense of security.

"Fine, then add Miss Du first!"

Xiao Xueqing added Du Xiaojuan's WeChat, and smiled as she said:

"Miss Du, such an outstanding female entrepreneur—if you have the opportunity in the future, you must come develop in our County Town. What our County Town lacks most right now is emerging industries like e-commerce. If Miss Du is willing to open a branch company in our County Town, I can help you get many preferential policies!"

Du Xiaojuan smiled politely:

"County Magistrate Xiao, you're too kind—thank you so much. If I have the opportunity, I will definitely come develop in the County Town, after all, this is Dashan's hometown."

Du Xiaojuan said this very politely; if she ever had the opportunity, she would basically never come back. Just like when you tell someone "let's eat together when we have time"—it means not eating together. Not eating together now, and it's very likely they won't eat together later either.

As an officialdom person, Xiao Xueqing naturally saw right through the meaning behind Du Xiaojuan's words.

But she still smiled politely and said:

"Sure, sure, we'll talk about it later."

At this time Niu Chunsheng and Lin Xiaofang came back from outside.

Lin Xiaofang had already swept away the gloom on her face, once again showing a polite and courteous smile.

The banquet was filled with a lively and joyous atmosphere.

Zhang Zhongtian held a microphone at this time, went up to the stage in front, and spoke to everyone.

"Welcome everyone to attend this banquet. Our Shanggou Village has produced a Top Scorer like Xiao Hua—that's a great blessing. As the Village Committee Secretary of our Shanggou Village, I feel genuinely happy from the bottom of my heart, and I'm also honored to have earned the trust of Xiao Hua's father, who entrusted me to handle this banquet. Now, no more nonsense—let's start serving the dishes. I wish everyone good food, good drinks, and happy drinking!"

The waiters began carrying out various delicacies from the back kitchen one after another, placing them on every table.

There was still a long time before the dishes were all served.

Taking advantage of this time, Zhang Zhongtian went down to find Wang Zhanggen:

"Changgen, why don't you go up and say a few words to everyone."

Wang Zhanggen smiled and waved his hand:

"What's there to say? Just let everyone eat well!"

Zhang Zhongtian saw his eager expression and knew this was just polite talk, so he quickly said again:

"You go up and say a couple of words! Come on, your son Xiao Hua got such high scores—if you don't say a couple of words, how can that be?"

Wang Zhanggen, flattered and urged by Zhang Zhongtian like this, was finally satisfied and reluctantly went up on stage.

"Hello everyone, thank you all for coming to my son's university entrance celebration……"

Wang Zhanggen began chattering away.

He had drunk a little earlier, and now the alcohol had gone to his head—he wasn't nervous at all.

So once he started, it was a long-winded speech.

From how he earned money to support the family, to how he educated his son, he chattered on and on, saying so much.

Wang Xiaohua listened from below, and his embarrassment syndrome kicked in.

"Mom, when did he become so talkative?"

Wang Xiaohua smiled bitterly, unable to resist asking Li Xiulan beside him this one sentence.

You must know, Wang Zhanggen was formerly famous as a mute jar.

At home he generally didn't speak much.

Outside chatting with others, he also wore a dead man's face.

But today he was actually radiant, eloquent, spouting brilliant lines one after another, talking volubly in various ways.

The guests below listened with great relish.

Can only say, success makes people confident, defeat makes people inferior.

The son's success also counts as a kind of one's own success.

At this moment, Wang Zhanggen was no longer that sensitive, inferior, life-defeated Wang Zhanggen from before, but a proud, beaming Wang Zhanggen.

He no longer suffered for face like before.

Exact say, the face he lost had already been completely made up for, so he was no longer anxious about gain and loss like before.

So whatever he did, he could let go.

"Who knows him? Maybe he drank too much and is talking nonsense!"

Li Xiulan glanced at Wang Zhanggen, also feeling this pillow-side person was somewhat strange.

Wang Zhanggen was indeed talking nonsense, because all his self-aggrandizing words were actually false; he said he had endured hardship and poured his heart out to cultivate Wang Xiaohua, worrying himself sick.

But actually, he didn't give a damn; he simply never managed the three sons' academic performance!

Of course, he inevitably brought up his past of smashing Wang Xiaohua's MP3 to make a point, admonishing everyone that in educating children one must be ruthless, absolutely never let children get addicted to electronics, and when necessary, must use stick education.

The many guests below, whether relatives and friends or village people, all listened with great relish.

Some even believed it as true, telling the sons beside them:

"From now on no playing mobile phones, you must learn from Brother Xiao Hua, understand!"

The innocent children resisted with faces full of depression:

"I don't want to..."

The naive parents immediately darkened their faces:

"Looks like you really are as Wang Zhanggen said, beaten too little, that's why you're so insensible; believe it or not, once back home I'll whip you!"
