?2919 Mu Yuan wants to show off his love
The servants had prepared the meal, and the MU family had also arrived.
The servants prepared 15 dishes in two hours. There were cold and hot dishes, fried, stewed, and steamed. It was very sumptuous and filled the big round table. It smelled delicious. There was also a bowl of bird’s nest and chicken soup in front of everyone, which was delicious and smooth.
Mu Yuan thought that there were no crabs. Who knew that in the middle of winter, there were actually ten mitten crabs? Mu Chen was very good at peeling crabs and peeled them cleanly. He peeled one for Mu Chen’s mother and Fu Chuyue, and mu Yuan followed suit and peeled one for Jack and his mother. If he expected Jack to peel one, he would chew on the meat and crab shell together.
Jack was left speechless.
In fact, he really didn’t like to eat crabs.
The helpless thing was that mu Yuan wanted to show off.
He could only indulge.
General MU’s teeth ached at the sight.”I’ve raised you since you were young, but have you ever peeled a crab for me?”
Jack was so frightened that he almost gave him his bowl.
Mu Yuan retorted,”do you need me to peel it? you’re even more efficient than me when you peel it.”
General mu was so angry that he stomped his feet. His mother came to smooth things over,”it’s just a crab, and you’re still arguing with the child. I’ll give it to you to eat. Quickly shut your mouth.”
She gave him the one in her bowl.
Mu Zhouzhi was sitting in the main seat. He was the head of the MU family and was very satisfied with Fu Chuyue, his daughter-in-law. Even if his character was a little lacking, his business ability overcame all imperfections.
“Xiao Yue is going to be transferred to the General Manager position after the new year, right?”
“Yes, dad!” Fu Chuyue ate some of the food that Mu Chen fed him like a little squirrel and replied seriously,”I was transferred in April, but I’m still young, so I have to deal with this matter in a low-key manner. If it’s exposed, I’m afraid that the public will spread rumors and it’ll be disadvantageous to me. I might have to trouble dad to help me deal with it.”
“Alright, I know what I’m doing. I’ll get someone to keep an eye on it!”
People always had a certain prejudice against girls who were good-looking and had a good family background. Since the system was introduced to the young, many young people in their twenties had risen to power. Their professional ability was really much better than some officials who worked hard for experience. Fu Chuyue was a typical example.
Of course, this was indeed related to her background. She relied on the MU and Fu families, had wide connections, and was willing to give face. Her business was also strong. Otherwise, she would not be able to afford it.
Jumping three levels in a year was already a common practice.
Even if she didn’t have the fu and Mu family’s background, she would be promoted sooner or later.
“Little Yue is so powerful!” General mu also praised her,”even old Yang praised her today.”
Fu Chuyue’s expression didn’t change when he was praised by the two powerful elders. He just implicitly accepted everyone’s praise. Fortunately, the elders of the MU family were used to it.
Mu Yuan whispered to Jack,”it’s none of our business. We’ll just eat and be done.”
Jack thought to himself, it’s best if they don’t have anything to do with it.
But … Little Yuan was too naive!
This banquet was clearly set up for him!
“Has Lieutenant Colonel Jack been serving in the Army? Do you want to follow your uncle’s path, your father’s path, or do you want to listen to your family’s arrangements?” Mu Zhouzhi asked the question that he wanted to ask the most tonight.
Jack had rehearsed the question that mu Shou wanted to ask many times in his heart, and the answer was the same.”I will serve in the Army for the next ten years. After that, I will make adjustments according to the family situation.”
