V2.Chapter 59 (1/2)

At the beginning of May, the season of peony flowers is Xia Shao's birthday.

This season, for Qinghai Province, the weather has warmed up and everything has recovered. It is a scene of spring entering summer.

In such a pleasant scene, Xia Shao, chairman of Huaxia group, welcomed her 18th birthday.

This is not a weekend. Xia Shao still has classes at school. It's close to the final exam. She doesn't want to fall behind in her studies. The birthday party is in the evening. She doesn't need to be busy. Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan came to Qingshi two days ago, and the invitation was sent out a week ago.

Whether it's from Qingshi or Dongshi, as long as it's someone in the upper circle of the province who has some relationship with Xia Shao, they all received invitations. Anyone who receives an invitation can't shirk it.

This girl from an ordinary family started at the age of 15. In the past three years, she has created two legends in the mall and achieved the behemoth of Huaxia group.

Her legend will continue, and many people will wait and see, because she is only eighteen. The age of youth, broad stage, and a longer life path than any predecessors in the mall

Everyone brightened their eyes to see how high she could go. For such a legendary girl, there is no reason not to come to her bar mitzvah. This is also a kind of witness. It is different from witnessing the legend she created in the mall, but witnessing that such a legendary person is coming of age. From then on, she really stands on the same stage as her predecessors as an adult, competing and cooperating.

The birthday party that night gathered celebrities from all walks of life in the upper class of the province, Xia's relatives and friends and Xia Shao's friends. All who could come came. Even Xia Shao's grandparents were received to let the old man preside over the initiation ceremony for Xia Shao. For Xia Shao, the only regret tonight is that master couldn't come. Master Tang Zongbo's legs and feet are inconvenient, and he is reluctant to see outsiders. Xia Shao also considers that he will go to Hong Kong in July. At this time, it's better not to let master appear in front of so many people, so he didn't let his parents pick up master.

Xia Shao discussed with her master about going to Hong Kong as early as the new year. She just finished her second year of high school this year, and she simply transferred to Hong Kong in her third year of high school. Although it's to rob Li Qingyu, you can't fall behind in your studies. However, this trip to Hong Kong is bound to encounter enemies. Yu Jiuzhi has great influence in Hong Kong and is supported by triads. Master's legs and feet are inconvenient. It is bound to be dangerous to be found when he goes back.

Therefore, after discussion, Xia Shao decided that she would go to Hong Kong to explore the situation first. The elder martial brother's work in the military region is not that he can go. Wait until he handles the work here and applies for a holiday, and then he will arrange for his master to go to Hong Kong together. In this way, Xia Shao is more relieved to be accompanied by him.

However, Tang Zongbo and Xu Tianyin disagreed with such a decision. They were worried that she would encounter a great enemy if she went ahead alone. But Xia Shao felt that this decision was most in line with the current situation of the three, so she made a decision.

Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan naturally knew about the transfer after reading this semester. The couple were naturally surprised. But her daughter said that she transferred to Hong Kong because the company wanted to explore the market in Hong Kong. It was convenient for her to transfer.

For this statement, Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan feel that the business of Huaxia group has been very large, and they do not require their daughter to become the richest man. The money is enough, and the assets of the company are very proud. My daughter is so busy that she feels tired.

However, Xia Shao has made up his mind. No matter how much the husband and wife don't give up, they only think that their daughter has really grown up and has their own plans for everything. As parents, they can't tie her around except for a little concern.

With this feeling, Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan paid more attention to their daughter's 18th birthday party. Although celebrities from all walks of life were invited to come tonight, the daughter's adult ceremony and all the elderly and elders in the family were invited. Even some unhappy brothers and sisters in the past didn't mention the past today, but wished the younger generation with their elders' identity. The older generation believes that the more blessings, the better the younger generation will go in the future.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the banquet hall of wanghaifeng hotel was full of guests. There were fifty or sixty tables. All the guests were important figures in the province. These figures gathered together, which made the Xia family feel stage fright.

The old man Xia Guoxi sat on the chairman, dressed in his newly bought Tang clothes and leaning on crutches. His posture was good, but he didn't dare to look around. The old lady Jiang Shuhui was also a little nervous. She went straight to the stage to see why her eldest son and daughter-in-law had not entered.

Not to mention the two old people, the couple Liu Chunhui and Xia Zhimei had never seen this scene in Dongshi. Even in the best period of their family's business, it takes some networking effort to meet any of these people present today. Now that their business has failed, it's easy to see them. But these people came for their nieces.

Xia Zhitao and Jiang Qiulin have never seen this scene. Although their clothes are grand and formal, they still look very stage fright.

On the contrary, Xia Zhiqin sat at the table with Zhang Ruman, looking more ordinary. She doesn't know the bosses and celebrities on the table, and she doesn't know how powerful these people are. Anyway, her husband is in the military region. His family is not from the official market, and he has never asked for these things. Therefore, I have never wanted to curry favor with these people. When I see them today, I naturally don't feel flattered. Anyway, I'm here to celebrate my niece's birthday. All the people sitting on this table are their own. Isn't it just a family dinner?

In the front row, yuanze, Liu Xianxian, Hu Jiayi and Miao Yan sat at a table alone, and the four were more comfortable. None of them has a poor family background. This scene is not uncommon. Naturally, they do not have stage fright. Moreover, for them, it is to attend a friend's birthday party. Stage fright is not, but it is a little sad.

The more grand today's birthday party is, the more sad it will be. It seems that after today, I will feel separated.

Xia Shao naturally told her friends about her transfer. Originally, she moved out of the dormitory this year. The dormitory of four people was like something missing. Liu Xianxian and Hu Jiayi are still arguing the same. They feel uncomfortable if they don't quarrel all day. Miao Yan, as always, sits aside and smiles shyly with envy. It's just that Liu Xianxian and Hu Jiayi can't stop arguing. They often quarrel a little. They look like real enemies. In the past, Xia Shao was there. She could always stop the war with a word. Now she is not in the dormitory, and only Miao Yan is pitifully at a loss when they quarrel.

Liu Xianxian and Hu Jiayi sometimes quarreled and stopped. When they think of Xia Shao, they also have some bad taste. Although she is quiet, she controls the field. She has always been the backbone in the dormitory. Without her, the few things in the dormitory are always sad.

Therefore, at weekends, Liu Xianxian and Hu Jiayi always took Miao Yan straight to Huayuan private club to make Xia Shao. For the arrival of friends, Xia Shao naturally accompanies no matter how busy she is. In her life, it is not easy to get to know a few friends. She would rather be busy than ignore her friends. Although, in this way, in order not to reduce the time of cultivation, she has been squeezing out her sleep time.

Although it's hard, it's sweet and full.

Miao Yan has lived in the Huayuan private club for the past year and has replenished a lot of vitality. Although she replenished her vitality and then dispersed because of her yin-yang eyes, it is much better than losing it from her body all the time. Although she didn't say that she was fatter than before, she looked much better, which surprised Miao Chenghong who sometimes took time to see her daughter. She was very grateful to Xia Shao and accelerated the progress of looking for those objects that sealed Yin and Yang eyes. So far, even the most difficult to find red scales have been bought on the black market, except for body salt.

Xia Shao once told Miao Chenghong to invite him to tashilhunpo temple or some shrines in dongmi. Miao Chenghong went, but the eminent monks in the temple didn't see him at first. In order to invite his daughter to this last sacred object, he didn't even go home for the new year last year. In the coldest time, he still insisted on eating fast, worshipping Buddha, paying homage to mountains and lakes, and donating money to rebuild the temple. He was very pious.

For more than half a year, it was not until he heard that Xia Shao was going to Hong Kong that Miao Chenghong anxiously went to ask the eminent monks in the temple. His words were sincere and touching. It was difficult to invite some treasures used by the eminent monks of Tantric Buddhism to cultivate their flesh and relic. However, he had to sincerely worship the Buddha in the temple for a period of time, thank the opportunity and make a great wish. After his daughter's yin-yang eyes were sealed, he would repair 1000 temples to fulfill his wish.

After hearing what Miao Chenghong did, Xia Shao was also very moved. Miao Yan is lucky to have such a father. Before going to Hong Kong, she must try her best to seal the Yin and Yang eyes for Miao Yan, not only to live up to her father's hard work, but also to live up to the fate of their friends.

The atmosphere of this table is somewhat sentimental. Except that Liu Xianxian, dressed in fiery red and enchanting, is knocking on the table, looking impatiently and looking forward to Xia Shao's appearance, others are immersed in sentimentality.

Yuan Ze glanced at his side. Xu Tianyin was in a black suit and sat in his seat. He only looked at the three-thirds of an mu in front of him. He looked at the bowl in front of him in a dark way. He was obviously not interested in the people around him.

Xu Tianyin was also arranged on the table of friends by Xia Shao, because he had nothing to say to anyone. They had to be careful to compliment him when he was arranged with those bosses. With Xu Tianyin's aura, the atmosphere on the table was absolutely embarrassing. Moreover, Xia Shao doesn't want these bosses to care too much about Xu Tianyin, lest they reveal Xu Tianyin's identity in front of her parents. At her current age, her parents still won't agree to her love. Now they can treat Xu Tianyin with an ordinary heart and gradually have a good impression. At this time, if they know the relationship between the two, all their previous efforts will be wasted.

Moreover, if Xu Tianyin's position and family background in the military region were known to his parents, he would be even more worried. Just to increase resistance between the two.

Those familiar people, such as Hu Guangjin and Xiong Huaixing, Xia Shao has said hello to them. Don't mention the two people and Xu Tianyin's identity in front of their parents. If someone mentions them at the table, remember to pass. They are both parents. How can they not understand Xia Shao's concerns? Immediately smiled.

Xia Shao didn't arrange Xu Tianyin with his relatives because his grandparents and relatives hadn't seen him. Now let him see him. It's inevitable to introduce him. Her parents are not inquisitive. She still knows who her relatives are. And grandparents may ask, and it's hard to answer at that time. Moreover, there are many people on this occasion today. Xu Tianyin and his family sit together. People who want to see it, afraid they don't think they see their parents, come to congratulate them one after another? That's really bad for her. It messed up their current development.

If Qin Hanlin were here today, Xia Shao would arrange Xu Tianyin and Qin Hanlin together. Unfortunately, Qin Hanlin is from the Commission for Discipline Inspection. They generally try to avoid such people on such occasions. If they can't attend, they won't attend. So he won't come tonight. Xia Shao thinks about coming and going,

It is estimated that these friends don't care much about Xu Tianyin's identity and are used to his loneliness, so it is most appropriate to arrange him at this table.

She really didn't read it wrong. These friends really didn't care. Even yuanze just looked at Xu Tianyin and then dropped his eyes.

He knew that she would sail one day, but he didn't expect it to be so soon

The sadness and reluctance lingered in his heart, but Yuan Shao had always been a happy youth. He was sad and looked at Xu Tianyin again. He worked in the military region. If she went to Hong Kong, didn't he have to separate from her for a while?

Hehe, this is good!

Be sad, let's be sad together. That's fair!

At the thought of this, yuanze's mood suddenly felt comfortable. Looking at Xu Tianyin's eyes, he could not help but provoke with a little schadenfreude. Xu Tianyin noticed his eyes and turned to take a look. The boy didn't hide. He raised his eyebrow and gave him a provocative look. But Xu Tianyin's response was suck. He didn't respond to Yuan Ze's provocation. He looked at him with a dark look, and silently bowed his head and went to see the dinner plate.

Yuanze was stunned by his reaction for a while and felt incredible - how does she like this type when this man is so boring?

A fist hit the cotton. Yuan Shao, who was ignored and had no place to vent, scratched his heart and liver. Fortunately, he was well cultivated. He didn't knock on the table like Liu Xianxian.

However, just at this time, rites and music rang out in the banquet hall.

As soon as the melodious rites and music sounded, the guests who sat at the table and talked low immediately quieted down. Everyone turned to look out of the banquet hall and knew that it was the beginning of the birthday party!

At the door of the banquet hall, the master of ceremonies in red cheongsam came in first with a smile and graceful appearance. The emcee stepped onto the stage of the banquet hall on the golden red carpet and made an opening speech, which solemnly led out Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan.

Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan were dressed ceremoniously tonight. Xia Zhiyuan was dressed in an atmospheric black business suit with shiny leather shoes. His wife held his arm. They walked together on the golden red carpet in the middle of the hall.

Li Juan has a long red dress. She is simple and generous. Her hair is pulled up high. She invited a makeup artist to put on makeup. She also has a dignified feminine demeanor.

Xia Zhiyuan has taken care of the charity foundation in recent years. He has also gone to many social occasions. He can be regarded as practicing some. Li Juan followed Xia Shao to attend the year-end ball of Huaxia group for two years, and she also saw the big scene, but she still had stage fright in the face of so many celebrities in the province today.

But no matter how stage fright, the husband and wife have to be generous and natural today to support the scene for their daughter!

The couple, holding hands, walked slowly onto the golden and red carpet with a smile on their face. This dress really looks like the boss and wife of a celebrity family. It makes people at the Xia family sigh and feel a little bad. And tonight, Xia Shao's parents also appeared in front of the public for the first time. Naturally, they won the attention of the public as soon as they came in. It seems that everyone wants to show their husband and wife a flower to see how they gave birth to such a daughter.

Xia Zhiyuan took over the microphone, looked under the stage, maintained a steady smile and opened his mouth, ”Dear guests and friends, thank you for attending my daughter's birthday dinner tonight. Without introducing ourselves, you can also see that we are the parents of my daughter Xia Shao. Most of you here are parents and must understand our mood. As parents, which is not hard work for our children? But we failed to do this. Instead, our daughter worked hard and let us go I enjoyed the blessing early. I'm not afraid of everyone's jokes. Our husband and wife have a bad taste in their hearts, ha ha. ”

Xia Zhiyuan is very emotional, but he is also telling the truth, and his words are sincere. Although his personal ability and achievements can not be compared with the bosses who came to celebrate tonight, he has aroused the resonance of the guests here on being a parent.

”We are not showing off or putting on airs when we invite all distinguished guests to attend the little girl's birthday party today, just because this year is the little girl's 18th birthday. After the 18th birthday, she is an adult and has to bear the responsibility of being an adult to herself, to the family and to the society. We invite all distinguished guests to attend because you are all in various circles Although she has made some achievements, she still has a lot to learn from her predecessors who have worked hard for half her life. We hope she will not be proud, respect her predecessors, learn more and encourage herself. We want to tell her that on her way to grow up, although we parents failed to provide her with rich material conditions, I We can still hold a birthday banquet for her, congratulate her on her adulthood and pray for a brighter future. ”

Xia Zhiyuan's words were somewhat emotional, but they came from his heart. Although the scene made his voice tremble, half of them were caused by excitement.

When his voice fell, there was warm applause in the banquet hall. All parents had a deep understanding of his words. It was precisely because his speech was not very dramatic that people had a good first impression of Xia Shao's parents.

”Now, let my daughter enter and meet you.” Xia Zhiyuan said, gesturing to the end of the hall.

The banquet hall was suddenly quiet again, and all eyes looked at the door of the hall again.

Xu Tianyin also raised his eyes and looked at the past.

I saw a girl wearing a cheongsam coming with a smile at the door of the hall. Tonight is her birthday, but her dress is not the most festive red, but a light pink silk long half sleeved cheongsam embroidered with snow-white peony. Elegant fragrance, no thick powder, the most natural appearance. Even the hair is not pulled up, but just falls down on the shoulder naturally. It looks like a minor daughter's home, with the girl's implicit, graceful, ignorant and not publicized.

At the age of 18, she was much older than when Huaxia group was founded. With a high body size, it has a more feminine charm. In contrast, her skin feels better than before. As soon as she appears at the door of the hall, she amazes the audience.

Although it still looks like a daughter's posture, her pace is calm, calm and calm, a wonderful combination of girls and mature women, attracting people's eyes, stepping on the carpet and walking towards her parents step by step.

Tonight, she doesn't need to control the scene or make any speeches. She's just the daughter of her parents. Everything is handled by her elders.

Although it is an adult ceremony, the modern society basically does not inherit the complex etiquette of ancient times. With so many guests here tonight, Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan don't want to be so complicated. They mainly congratulate their daughter. A little symbolic ceremony is enough.

The emcee said a congratulatory message. Xia Shao bowed to her grandparents and parents. Then her grandmother combed her hair by hand. Then Li Juan came over with her hand, took a hairpin and tied her daughter's hair by hand, symbolizing that she was an adult.

Although it was only a simple ceremony, when her hair was tied up, Li Juan still red eyes and felt like she wanted to marry her daughter. Xia Shao smiled and hugged her parents to thank them for their upbringing.

Although the process is simple and the ceremony is not long, the scene is warm. Some bosses come with their wives. When they see such a scene, some women with emotional points also have red eyes and think about waiting for their son or daughter to grow up. Although the ceremony of adult ceremony is different, it is very simple and meaningful.

In such a scene, at Liu Xianxian's table, Hu Jiayi and Miao Yan both red eyes. Hu Jiayi wiped her tears. ”Xian Xian, Xiao Yan, how do I think Shaozi is getting married.”

Liu Xianxian spat at her, ”even if you're married, why are you crying? You're not a mother!”

Miao Yan's eyes turned red with her, and she burst out laughing at this.

Yuanze looked at them bitterly and resolutely refused to admit that it was like getting married.

Only Xu Tianyin has been silently watching the stage. His eyes are only on the hairpin in the girl's hair. It was the new year when he first met her and carved it for her. Men's eyes are rarely soft, and even have a shallow smile on their lips.

She is an adult.

The man's eyes moved with the girl, looked at her smile and greeted the guests with his parents at the table, while his eyes were fixed on her alone.

Xia Shao didn't feel Youdao's eyes looking at her all the time, but she didn't have any other thoughts at this time. She was very vigilant when she toasted with her parents. She was afraid that someone would mention Xu Tianyin in front of her parents, so she skillfully brought some guests' words all the way.

Fifty or sixty tables have been served. Although the banquet can be opened, the master of ceremonies still has a program to carry out. That is the birthday wishes and gifts sent by the guests to Xia Shao.
