Chapter 208 A woman with style
After get off work, Xue Qiang drove home to pick up Bai Cui.
"Do you remember Section Chief Zhou?"
On the way to Xianweiju, Xue Qiang asked while driving.
"Is it the leader of the education bureau who takes good care of you?" Bai Cui asked.
"Yes, Section Chief Zhou is really good."
Xue Qiang said: "Being principled and loyal enough, I used his work as a guarantee for me twice. If it weren't for him, I might not be able to be this teacher long ago."
"Then you should thank him well." Bai Cui said.
"He is an upright official, and he won't accept gifts."
Xue Qiang said: "Besides, as the leader of the Education Bureau, there is nothing he can ask of me. The most I can do is treat him to dinner."
"Then order more expensive dishes." Bai Cui said.
"Ah, it's not your character, you've always been very frugal." Xue Qiang said with a smile.
"It's different. I can save my life, but I can't be stingy with my friends."
Bai Cui said seriously: "Especially someone like Section Chief Zhou who has been kind to you."
"Baby's words have a pattern." Xue Qiang said with a smile.
"After all, it's your wife. You have such a successful career outside, I can't hold you back and embarrass you!"
Bai Cui said, and suddenly said coquettishly, "What are you doing!"
"I want to change gears." Xue Qiang said with a smirk.
"Don't think I don't understand, the gear handle of this car is under the steering wheel."
Bai Cui blushed and said, "Drive well!"
"Okay, drive well!"
Although Xue Qiang said so, he didn't withdraw his hand.
All the way to Xianweiju, after parking the car, I met Zhou Yan and his wife at the door.
"This is sister-in-law!"
Xue Qiang greeted Zhou Yan's daughter-in-law with a smile.
"Yes, this is my daughter-in-law Cao Siran." Zhou Yan introduced with a smile.
"Hello sister-in-law!"
Xue Qiang also introduced: "This is my wife Bai Cui."
"Hello, Section Chief Zhou, and sister-in-law." Bai Cui greeted politely.
"Ms. Xue has been famous for a long time. I have never had a chance to meet him. I have told Lao Zhou several times, and I am willing to take me to meet Mr. Xue today."
Cao Siran looked at Bai Cui with a smile and said, "Teacher Xue's wife is so beautiful, you two are really talented and beautiful."
"I'm ashamed to be praised by my sister-in-law."
Bai Cui's face had a blush that hadn't dissipated, but when Cao Siran said it, it turned red again.
"Section Chief Zhou, what are you doing standing at the door, why don't you go in?" Xue Qiang asked at this time.
"It's full, you need to wait."
Zhou Yan smiled wryly and said, "Maybe it's because of the weekend."
"The business of Xianweiju is usually so good. I really want to go out as soon as I go out. If you want to come and eat, make a reservation in advance!"
Cao Siran complained to Zhou Yan angrily.
"Wait a minute, I'll go over and ask."
Xue Qiang walked to the door, and as soon as he showed up, the front hall manager immediately recognized Xue Qiang.
He hurried over and said respectfully, "Teacher Xue, you are here!"
"Is there any private room?" Xue Qiang asked.
"Of course Teacher Xue will come!"
The manager said with a smile.
A restaurant like Xianweiju will reserve two or three private rooms every day, specially for some distinguished guests who have not booked in advance.
If an ordinary guest asks, they will answer that the private room is full.
"Please follow me." The manager said respectfully.
"Chief Zhou! Let's go!"
Xue Qiang shouted to Zhou Yan with a smile.
"what?"
Zhou Yan, Cao Siran and Bai Cui walked in together.
"Mr. Xue, have you positioned your child in advance?" Zhou Yan asked.
"Yes, it's booked in advance."
Xue Qiang smiled and nodded, that's all he could say.
You can't tell Zhou Yan that he, Xue Qiang, has this face, so you don't need to make a reservation in advance to eat here.
In this way, Zhou Yan will lose face.
"Look how thoughtful Mr. Xue is thinking!"
Cao Siran complained to Zhou Yan again.
Zhou Yan could only laugh and say haha.
Entering the private room, the four of them sat down, Xue Qiang said boldly: "Just order whatever you want!"
"Then I must kill you severely!"
Zhou Yan picked up the menu, flipped through it and said, "Give me a Boston lobster!"
"Section Chief Zhou, you should be polite to me."
Xue Qiang said to the waiter: "No Boston lobster, but Australian lobster."
"Aolong?"
Zhou Yan was turning to this page. Seeing the price on it, he felt that it was a bit expensive, so he quickly said, "Bolong is fine, Bolong is fine."
"Section Chief Zhou, don't be polite to Qiangqiang." Bai Cui also advised.
"Section Chief Zhou didn't hear that I turned down all the opportunities with an annual salary of tens of millions of dollars." Xue Qiang said with a self-deprecating smile.
"That said, it's true."
Zhou Yan said: "I'm really not polite, give me a catty of this prawn!"
"Change to peony shrimp." Xue Qiang said.
"Then get a plate of this flower snail!" Zhou Yan said again.
"Change the big ringing snail." Xue Qiang said.
"Then let's get a grouper." Zhou Yan said.
"Change to Dong Xingban." Xue Qiang said.
"Okay, that's about it."
Zhou Yan closed the menu and said, "One more dozen beers."
"Eating seafood and drinking beer can cause gout." Xue Qiang said, "Have a bottle of Wuliangye."
"Mr. Xue, the manager has ordered you not to order any drinks."
The waiter said politely: "We have newly entered Longyin wine, please taste it."
"Alright." Xue Qiang nodded.
The waiter backed out.
Zhou Yan smiled helplessly and said, "Mr. Xue, you want to corrupt the cadres!"
"Ha, it's okay to indulge once in a while." Xue Qiang said with a smile: "It's not for you, but for my sister-in-law."
"Look at how good Teacher Xue is at talking!"
Cao Siran gave Zhou Yan a blank look, and said to Xue Qiang with a smile: "Mr. Xue is spending money."
"As long as sister-in-law is happy." Xue Qiang said indifferently.
"Oh, how can it be so easy to be happy."
A look of sadness suddenly appeared on Cao Siran's face.
"What's the matter, sister-in-law? Did something happen?" Xue Qiang asked upon seeing this.
"it's okay no problem."
Zhou Yan hurriedly said, "What can I do?"
"That's it." Xue Qiang said, "If there is anything I can help with, just ask."
As he spoke, he gave Bai Cui a look.
Bai Cui immediately understood, stood up and said, "I don't drink, I sit with my sister-in-law."
As he spoke, he came to sit next to Cao Siran, and said, "These two men will drink and blow water in a while, and I will chat with my sister-in-law."
"That's right, my old Zhou can talk a lot after drinking some wine."
Cao Siran nodded and said, "Let's have a good chat."
Not long after, the food and wine were served.
The four chatted while eating.
"I heard that you are the instructor of the Experimental Middle School Mathematical Olympiad team."
Zhou Yan said casually: "That old fried dough stick Tian Xuri can really do things."
"Just right, I want to challenge it too."
Xue Qiang said with a relaxed face: "Teaching a student with a perfect score in the college entrance examination is no longer enough for me. I want to teach a gold medal in the Olympiad."
