Siheyuan: I am Banggeng's uncle

Chapter 909 The Ability to Cope with Sticky Phrases!
Halfway through the meal, Jia Dongming stood up from his seat and called out to Banggeng and Tang Yanling with a smile, "Banggeng! Yanling! Come over here with your wine glasses and toast the uncles and elders here."

Upon hearing Jia Dongming's call, Banggeng and Tang Yanling immediately put down their chopsticks, grabbed their wine glasses, and stood up from the table. Banggeng responded happily, "Uncle! We're coming right away."

When Tang Guohua saw Jia Dongming call Banggeng to offer a toast, he immediately stood up from the table and said to Banggeng with a smile, "Brother-in-law! I'll go pour the drinks for you and Lingling."

Bang Geng was somewhat surprised to hear Tang Guohua's words, but considering that there were so many people around, he couldn't refuse Tang Guohua's request. He smiled and said to Tang Guohua, "Second Brother! Then I'll have to trouble you."

Holding a wine glass in one hand and Tang Yanling's hand in the other, Jia Dongming quickly arrived at their table and politely introduced them to everyone present: "Uncles and elders! This is my wife, Tang Yanling. She works as a saleswoman in a department store. This is my wife's second brother...!"

As Bang Geng finished his introduction, he suddenly thought of Tang Guohua's workplace and instinctively fixed his gaze on Director Zhou. At that moment, he finally understood why Tang Guohua had followed them under the pretext of helping them pour drinks.

Having figured out Tang Guohua's true intentions, Bang Geng paused slightly before introducing, "My second brother-in-law is named Tang Guohua, and he is Uncle Zhou's subordinate."

When Director Zhou, who was sitting at the dining table, saw Bang Geng suddenly stop halfway through his introduction, he was wondering why Bang Geng's niece would react this way. It wasn't until he heard Bang Geng's introduction that a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he smiled and asked Bang Geng, "Jia Geng! Is it true that your second brother-in-law works at our Yanjing Automobile Manufacturing Plant?"

Upon hearing Director Zhou's question to Bang Geng, Tang Guohua, without waiting for Bang Geng to answer, quickly introduced himself: "Director Zhou! My name is Tang Guohua, and I am an apprentice in the gearbox workshop."

After seeing Tang Guohua introduce himself to Director Zhou, Banggeng quickly raised his glass and said with a smile to everyone present, "Uncles and elders, this glass of wine is for you and my wife Yanling. Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend our wedding. We'll drink this glass. Please feel free to drink as you please."

Having said that, Bang Geng quickly raised his glass and downed the wine in one gulp.

Upon hearing Bang Geng's words, Tang Yanling also raised her glass and drank the wine in one gulp.

After seeing that Bang Geng and Tang Yanling had finished their drinks, Tang Guohua immediately refilled their glasses.

After Tang Guohua filled his glass, Banggeng smiled and thanked Wu Tianlin and Wu Tianpeng, saying, "Uncle Wu! This glass of wine is a special toast from Yanling and me to you both. Thank you for such a precious wedding gift." Before the meal, Tang Yanling already knew that their television and refrigerator were wedding gifts from Banggeng's uncle's friend. When Tang Yanling learned this, she was quite shocked, as these two appliances were not cheap and were the kind that were hard to buy even if you had the money.

When Tang Yanling heard what Bang Geng said to Wu Tianlin and Wu Tianpeng, and saw the two middle-aged men in front of her, she said respectfully, "Uncle Wu! Thank you for your gifts. Jia Geng and I will drink this glass of wine together. You two can make yourselves at home."

Upon hearing Banggeng and Tang Yanling's words, Wu Tianlin and Wu Tianpeng raised their glasses. Wu Tianlin even smiled and said to Banggeng, "Jiageng! Yanling! I've said before that I have a life-or-death friendship with your uncle. In my eyes, you are no different from my juniors. As your elder, I hope you will have a happy and fulfilling life in the future!"

Li Huaide had witnessed Bang Geng's reaction when he introduced Tang Guohua. Hearing what Bang Geng said to the Wu Tianlin brothers, although he didn't know what kind of valuable gift the Wu Tianlin brothers had given Bang Geng, he could tell from this that Jia Dongming's relationship with Wu Tianlin was truly extraordinary.

Thinking of Tang Guohua's purpose in coming with Banggeng, the shrewd Li Huaide watched as Banggeng downed his drink and then said to him with a smile, "Jiageng! I didn't expect your second brother-in-law to be one of Old Zhou's men. After you finish toasting him, be sure to have a few more drinks with your Uncle Zhou. If you can keep your Uncle Zhou entertained, your second brother-in-law's job promotion will be a piece of cake for him."

Li Huaide's words undoubtedly excited Tang Guohua, who was standing to the side. Bang Geng, who already knew Tang Guohua's purpose, immediately went along with it and replied, "Uncle Li! After I finish toasting and come back, I will definitely have a good drink with all the uncles and elders."

Seeing what was happening, Jia Dongming immediately understood why Tang Guohua had come. To see how Banggeng would handle the situation, Jia Dongming wisely chose to remain silent. In the end, Banggeng's response satisfied Jia Dongming greatly. He smiled and said to everyone present, "Director Li! Director Zhou! Director Guo! Director Jiang! You all have a good drink with the two Mr. Wus. I'll take Banggeng and his wife to offer them a toast. When I get back, we'll have a few more drinks together."

Upon hearing Jia Dongming's words, Li Huaide immediately smiled and assured Jia Dongming, "Director Jia! Mr. Wu has several of us with him, so there will absolutely be no problem. You can rest assured and take our bride and groom to toast the guests!"

"Director Jia! Old Li is right. With a few of us here, we guarantee we'll take good care of the two Mr. Wus." Director Zhou echoed Li Huaide's words, making the same assurance to Jia Dongming.

With a heart full of excitement, Tang Guohua followed Banggeng and Tang Yanling out of the villa. Thinking of what Li Huaide had just said to Banggeng, Tang Guohua couldn't help but lean close to Banggeng's ear and whisper, "Brother-in-law! Whether I can successfully get a permanent position this time depends entirely on you."

As Tang Guohua's son-in-law, Banggeng knew a little about the Tang family's situation, so he was very clear about why Tang Guohua had been an apprentice for three years but had not yet been promoted to a permanent position. Faced with Tang Guohua's plea, Banggeng whispered to Tang Guohua, "Second brother-in-law! I will do my best to help later!"
