Chapter 72: Neglect from Chairman Wei (2)
"Hello, I am the daughter of Wei Jiefang. My father has an appointment with the old man for dinner today." Wei Sheng felt that the conversation was like a routine, without the slightest naturalness among relatives.
She couldn't kindly call out the title of grandfather, and the Wei family also called the title of grandfather.
The voice on the other end of the phone immediately replied, "Please wait a moment. Madam, there is a call. Call Wei Sheng."
After waiting for a long time for the empty phone opposite, another female voice came again, "Hello."
This voice sounded about forty years old, elegant and decent. Wei Sheng knew that she was the old man's second-married wife Xu Mei, not much bigger than Wei Jiefang. She was also a small cadre who originally worked in the old man's unit. Now she has retired at home early.
The biological mother of his father, Wei Jiefang, died within a few years of his birth, so Xu Mei came in very early, probably when Wei Jiefang was eleven or twelve years old. At that time, the father was only in his early thirties and Sun Mei was just too old. In her early twenties, she gave birth to a son in the second year of entering the Wei family. It has been more than 20 years or almost 30 years, and she can be regarded as a serious mistress in the Wei family.
"Hello, this is Wei Sheng, Wei Jiefang's daughter."
As soon as Wei Sheng spoke, a woman's voice came after a short pause, "Chairman Wei is not at home today, you can call tomorrow."
Wei Sheng frowned, looked up at his smiling father, and had to speak again, "We have an appointment with the old man for dinner today."
A voice came from a long distance on the other end of the phone: ‘Madam, Director Zhang’s phone call, find Mr. ’
Following this voice, Xu Mei, who was holding the phone on the other end, said, "Wait a moment." After speaking, she seemed to leave the microphone on the table.
Then Wei Sheng waited for a long time, listening to the occasional footsteps on the other end of the phone, he was far and near, but no one answered the phone again.
Wei Sheng looked up at his parents who were already puzzled, and reluctantly hung up the phone, "The old man is not at home."
Father was obviously taken aback for a while, and said in embarrassment, "Maybe we will come back later, we will call another one later."
Perhaps because it is not like real parents and relatives, Wei Jiefang is not like other people who can visit the door at will, and even feel that it may be presumptuous to visit suddenly.
Let's listen to Xu Mei's answer just now, ‘Chairman Wei is not at home’ instead of ‘Your grandpa is not at home’, the situation and degree of alienation in Wei’s family can be seen.
Of course, this is also an obvious manifestation that the other party did not appreciate Wei Jiefang, the eldest son who had been working hard all year round but had nothing.
For that family, it seems that he is now 27 or 28 years old. After graduation, he relied on his father's Yu Yin to become the general manager of the steel mill, enjoying the treatment of being a director, and then resigned and went to the sea to run a machine tool factory. The son is the real family member.
Chairman Wei’s youngest son is named Wei Zuyin. After quitting his position as the general manager of a steel mill, he started as a machine tool factory, specializing in the production of metal cutting machine tools. Chairman Wei’s business list became his important pillar.
At this moment, after listening to the dialogue between Wei Sheng and Wei Jiefang, Yang Lichun hesitated, "Shall we eat first?"
Wei Jiefang waved his hand, "If Dad doesn't have time, he will notify us. Since it's all set, please wait."
Yang Lichun nodded when he heard the words, and a family of three sat in the living room waiting for a call from Chairman Wei's house.
But at this time, there was no news for half an hour.
During the period, Wei Jiefang made a phone call in person, but it seemed that because he had forgotten Wei Sheng's phone number, he didn't hang up the microphone, only a busy tone came.
Wei Jiefang's mood was embarrassing, even though he tried to hide it in front of his wife and daughter.
After all, it has been a week since the wife and daughter came to Chaonan City. It stands to reason that his father and stepmother should always entertain them, at least meet each other, let alone live in a compound.
He always cited his father's busy schedule as an excuse, but in fact he was a little unhappy and aggrieved. Today, the agreement was finally made, and the words were also spoken, but there was no news over there, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
What is more uncomfortable is that the humiliation of not paying attention to it, or even being completely ignored, gradually spreads in my heart.
In order to avoid embarrassing his father, Wei Sheng found an excuse to do his homework and went back to the room, leaving room for his parents to talk.
Otherwise, it would be a bit embarrassing for a family of three to sit in the living room solemnly and wait for the agreement that there is no news.
At this time, Wei Sheng paid the money at the small shop in front of the compound, took the vinegar handed over by the shop, and was turning around and walking into the compound.
The three of them waited until 8:30 and there was no news. In the end, Wei Jiefang patted his thigh and asked Yang Lichun to cook first.
Perhaps it was to prevent her daughter from feeling uncomfortable, so Wei Jiefang came into the room and explained that the father had just called and was so busy today that he had no time to attend the appointment.
Wei Sheng believed his father's words on the surface and smiled to indicate that he knew.
In fact, she didn't know where this was her father's words to comfort her. Wouldn't she hear her if the phone rang at home?
The sky is dotted with stars, and it is much clearer than the haze days of later generations. Wei Sheng wrapped in a rose-red down jacket and walked downstairs in the cold wind and snow, and looked up at the opposite building. It is not difficult to see that person. The light in Chairman Wei's room was on.
Perhaps the steam from cooking covered the windows, and only vaguely saw people walking in the living room window.
As soon as she turned around and was about to step into the corridor, she saw several young people with cigarettes in their hands approaching in her direction from a short distance.
Wei Sheng squinted his eyes, but did not see the Qian Shuang object among them.
"You stop, are you Wei Sheng?" Soon, several people stopped in front of Wei Sheng.
Getting closer, Wei Sheng also recognized that two of them were young people who accompanied Zhang Dong at the school gate that day to block him.
"It's her. I haven't blocked her in school for the past two days." Several people held cigarettes and chatted wittyly.
"Go call Dongzi."
"Pull it down, this kid is in the corridor with Qian Shuang, I couldn't call him impotence in the past!"
Several people laughed, no one noticed that Wei Sheng looked at them blankly.
"Xiao Ming'er, let's take this little girl to the backyard, and you will find the camera." After a young man finished speaking, the boy named Xiao Ming ran out of the compound.
Wei Sheng raised his eyebrows, and didn't stop the young man from pulling the hand toward his arm.
The other party had four people in total, and one of them had just been taken away, which means that Zhang Dong will be included in the future.
She is sure to bluff them, and now the market price of plastics has fluctuated somewhat. Wei Sheng has other ideas about Qian Shuang.
