Chapter 795: Celebrate
Chapter 795 A banquet to celebrate
From July 3rd to 11th, the International Chemistry Olympiad will be held in Norway.
Xu Haiyuan accompanied the team leader and other students to go abroad to participate in the competition. After several days of competition, Xu Haiyuan finally won the gold medal with a perfect score in theory and the highest score in operation.
The news spread back to the country, and everyone was crazy with joy.
Xu Shiyan and Su Anying received countless congratulatory calls, and many people shouted for Xu Shiyan to treat guests with a banquet.
Xu Shiyan and his wife are naturally very happy that their son has achieved such outstanding results.
What is a banquet? Who is short of the banquet money?
Xu Shiyan agreed very readily, and when Xu Haiyuan came back, he would definitely invite everyone to drink.
On July 23rd, Xu Haiyuan, who had been celebrating and commending all the way, finally returned to Donggang.
Donggang also held the most solemn welcome ceremony, with gongs and drums and lanterns and festoons to welcome Xu Haiyuan home.
"Good boy, you've given Donggang a face this time.
World Gold Award, let alone our small town, even in our county or city, I have never heard of it. "
The secretary of Donggang town and the principal of Donggang junior high school came forward in person, one brought flowers to Xu Haiyuan, and the other put a ribbon on it.
Especially the principal of the junior high school, so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
Xu Haiyuan used to be a student of Donggang Junior High School.
Such a middle school in a remote town not only produced several national champions, but also a world champion. Any principal would jump for joy.
Xu Haiyuan has never stopped these welcoming ceremonies since he set foot on the domestic land, he is used to it.
"Thank you principal, thank you Uncle Song." Xu Haiyuan calmly bowed to the two to show his gratitude.
The welcome ceremony was quite normal up to here, but in the next second, Xu Haiyuan's junior high school and elementary school classmates rushed over with a lot of hula.
Everyone immediately lifted Xu Haiyuan up, then threw it into the sky and caught it, then threw it and caught it again.
The crowd burst into enthusiastic cheers, and everyone applauded and laughed.
Xu Haiyuan was really confused now.
There are so many celebration and commendation meetings along the way, all of them are gentle, how can you imagine that after returning home, the big guys will do this for him?
This feeling of being thrown in the air and then caught is really not good.
"Okay, okay, please forgive me, this thing is too scary."
Xu Haiyuan hurriedly begged for mercy, he didn't want to be thrown over and over again like a ball.
"Stop, put it down."
Huang Shuqing was the leader of this group of people. He said stop, and the big guys stopped throwing Xu Haiyuan hard, but gently put him on the ground.
Then, the students came forward and hugged Xu Haiyuan one by one.
"It's awesome, we are proud to have a classmate like you."
"Squad leader, if you become prosperous in the future, you must always think about us, we will all go to you in the future."
"Yes, yes, we can rely on you. You were our squad leader before, and we will still be our leader in the future.
Whatever you tell us to do, we will listen to you. You can do whatever you want. "
Everyone was chattering and saying everything, but everyone's admiration and blessings to Xu Haiyuan were sincere.
These young people who are only seventeen or eighteen years old, less than twenty, clear and innocent, everyone regards Xu Haiyuan as their idol, the person they admire the most.
Xu Haiyuan only felt that his eyes were a bit uncomfortable at the moment, sour and astringent.
Xu Haiyuan has always been calm and composed, with a maturity and wisdom far beyond those of his peers, and the celebrations all the way back have not moved him.
However, at this moment, Xu Haiyuan only felt that his throat was a little congested, his heart was full, and an inexplicable emotion was rolling in his heart.
"Good brothers, good classmates, I am proud to have you."
Xu Haiyuan patted the opponent's back with his backhand, and blinked hard to make himself more comfortable.
"Come on, let me show you our celebration banquet today."
Huang Shuqing, Yang Jianguo, Sun Yu and other friends who grew up together came forward, surrounded Xu Haiyuan, and walked towards the gate of the market.
Xu Haiyuan still finds it strange, shouldn't he be asked to go home and visit his grandparents first? Why did you come to the market?
As a result, Xu Haiyuan was stunned by the scene inside as soon as he entered the city compound.
On the open space of the Canshi compound, a large row of sheds, pots and stoves, and chopping boards were set up on the south side.
A dozen cooks in white coats and hats were busy cooking.
From the shed to the north, the entire open space in the courtyard is filled with tables, chairs and benches of all kinds.
Not only are round and square people standing aside at home, there are even school desks.
Wooden desks for two people, two or three desks can be put together to form a large desk.
Don't ask, it must be because the dining table is not enough, and I don't know who came up with the idea to use the desk as a dining table.
Looking around, the huge open space is full of tables, and it is estimated that there must be at least a hundred tables.
Xu Haiyuan couldn't help being speechless, hey boy, isn't this a bit too grand and extravagant?
Is this good? His father won't be reported or something because of this, right?
"What are you doing in a daze? Come here, Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu are waiting for you over there."
Huang Shuqing and others dragged Xu Haiyuan to the middle table in front.
Sitting here are Xu Chenghou, Su Weizhong, Chu Xuanhuai, Han Wenzhong, Su Weicheng, Zhou Anping, Zhou Anfu, Zhao Dahai, Yu Shouguang and others.
Chu Xuanhuai came back with Su Anying, Xu Jinping, Yang Haoyu and the others.
Su Anying's studies in the business school have ended, and she does not need an internship to find a job, so she has one year less than ordinary junior college students.
Xu Jinping and Yang Haoyu are studying in the High School Attached to Normal University in the provincial capital. This semester, they have completed all the courses for the whole school year.
Knowing that my brother won the award, how can the two of them stay together? Just come back with Su Anying and accompany Chu Xuanhuai to celebrate Xu Haiyuan.
"Grandpa, grandpa, master, grandpa, grandpa Han, uncle, uncle."
This table was full of old men, and Xu Haiyuan called people one by one.
"Oh, good boy, come and sit next to Grandpa."
When Xu Chenghou saw his eldest grandson approaching, he immediately waved to the grandson with a smile on his face, and asked the child to sit in front of him.
"It's been half a year since I left, why do I feel like I've grown again? It seems like I've lost weight.
Is it bad to eat when going abroad? Do you have the habit of eating foreign food? "
Xu Chenghou was very rare when he saw his grandson. He never saw fat or thin people, but this time he could see that his grandson had lost weight.
Xu Haiyuan sat down next to his grandfather as promised, looked around, and asked in a low voice.
"Master, how many tables have been set up today? My dad is so busy, doesn't he violate any discipline?"
Xu Haiyuan was a little worried, his father shouldn't fall into it because of this.
"It's okay, we don't accept gifts, we just hold a few tables of banquets to be lively."
Xu Chenghou waved his hand. He had heard what his son and daughter-in-law had said. It seemed that Xu Shiyan had asked the leader for instructions and his superiors allowed it.
Xu Haiyuan was relieved when he heard this.
So obediently sat between grandpa and master, chatting with a group of old men.
Anyway, Xu Haiyuan answered whatever people asked, and he was very obedient.
"Have you decided which school to go to? Are you really determined to study medicine?" Chu Xuanhuai looked at his grandson proudly.
"Actually, there is no need to be too persistent in studying medicine, you have already obtained the qualification certificate.
Based on your current medical skills, it is much better than the students who graduated from the medical school.
Otherwise, it would be good to study chemistry in Qingbei. Even if you want to take over the family business in the future, there will be no conflict. "
Chu Xuanhuai was actually quite conflicted.
On the one hand, I hope that Xu Haiyuan can inherit his mantle and pass on the Chu family's medical skills.
But on the other hand, seeing Xu Haiyuan showing amazing talent in chemistry, he felt that it was a pity that only Xu Haiyuan was allowed to study medicine.
"Master, my ambition since childhood was to study medicine, and this has never changed." Xu Haiyuan laughed when he heard it.
“Whether it is chemistry or physics, it is a student experience.
To put it in a less pleasant way, being able to win an award can only mean that I can do the questions.
It does not mean that I will have much creation or achievement in the field of chemistry in the future. "
"I won the award, and I will study medicine in the future, there is no causal relationship between them.
After returning to China this time, many universities in the capital have contacted me, and my attitude has never changed, to study medicine. "
Xu Haiyuan already has a clear plan for the future, and will not make changes just because of winning an award.
"Okay, you can control your own life." Chu Xuanhuai nodded.
No matter what Xu Haiyuan studies, he can accept it, and studying medicine is naturally the best.
"Do you want to learn Chinese medicine or Western medicine?"
"Well, I've made up my mind, I'll go to study Western medicine first, and get my clinical practice certificate."
Xu Haiyuan has already passed the examination for the TCM qualification certificate. Just like what Chu Xuanhuai said, Xu Haiyuan's current medical skills are not a little bit better than those medical school graduates.
Now if I go to school to learn Chinese medicine, I always feel like a waste of time.
To put it bluntly, Chu Xuanhuai can teach what can be taught in school, and Chu Xuanhuai can teach what cannot be taught in school.
With the teachings of Chu Xuanhuai, and the secret medical books in the cellar back then, as long as Xu Haiyuan can master all of these, it will be absolutely amazing.
If he wants to continue learning in the future, he can also find a master of traditional Chinese medicine to learn from a teacher. Following a teacher is the most effective way to learn.
"Well, since you have chosen it, no matter which subject, study hard. Master believes in you, you can do it."
Chu Xuanhuai himself also learned both Chinese and Western medicine, so he will not be too persistent about these things, no matter what he studies, as long as he learns something.
The grandfather and grandson had just chatted a few words, when a group of young people came over and dragged Xu Haiyuan away again.
The old men couldn't help but feel emotional when they saw it, "This one is getting bigger.
The appearance of running all over the street wearing crotch pants is still in front of my eyes, but I didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, I became a young man. "
"Yeah, the child has grown up in a blink of an eye, and we are also old.
These young people really caught up with the good times, the good days when the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the food and clothing are affluent, unlike ours at that time. "
A group of old men, looking at the children who are jumping and jumping and playing happily not far away, are full of joy and endless emotion.
In order to celebrate Xu Haiyuan's award, Xu Shiyan and his wife arranged hundreds of banquets in Canshi to entertain relatives and friends.
With so many tables, it will definitely test the skill of the chef.
Under the row of sheds to the south, dozens of people are busy with spoons, piers, plates, and helpers.
The case was covered with pots, pans and pans of all kinds, and the deep-fried meat and meatballs in the big basin were piled up like hills.
There are more than a dozen strong young men at the other end, holding large square plates in their hands, and are responsible for serving the dishes.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the dishes are ready and the guests are all seated.
"Thank you, everyone, for taking time out of your busy schedule to come to classmate Xu Haiyuan's celebration banquet together."
Donggang Town Secretary Song Fansheng stood in front with a microphone in his hand and delivered an opening speech.
"I never thought that a small place like Donggang would have a world champion one day.
Student Xu Haiyuan this time, for this remote town at the foot of Changbai Mountain, he has really gained face and won pride.
This kid is so promising. "
Song Fansheng's face flushed with joy and excitement, and his voice rose several degrees involuntarily.
"Next, let's invite classmate Xu Haiyuan to tell you a few words?"
As soon as these words came out, there was thunderous applause at the scene, and some people shouted for Xu Haiyuan to say a few words.
Seeing this, Xu Haiyuan knew that he couldn't hide, so he stepped forward and took the microphone.
“Thank you to all relatives, friends and neighbors for your kindness.
I really didn't expect that I just came back from a competition, and everyone was shocked. This summer came over to congratulate me and celebrate.
Xu Haiyuan was born here and grew up here, and has been taken care of by the elders since he was a child. Here, thank you in advance. "
As he spoke, Xu Haiyuan bowed directly to the people in front of him.
“I am still young, so I dare not say that I will achieve something in the future.
But the affection of the elders of the folks, I will definitely remember it in my heart, and I will never forget it. "Xu Haiyuan said, and bowed again.
"Finally, I would also like to thank my parents, grandparents and grandparents who gave birth to me and raised me, as well as my teachers who devoted themselves to teaching me medical skills.
And all the teachers from elementary school to middle school, all the teachers who have taught me and guided me on the road of life.
Without you, there would be no Xu Haiyuan today. "Speaking of this, Xu Haiyuan seemed to be a little choked up, so he bowed again.
There was another burst of applause at the scene, and then Song Fansheng took over the microphone, said a few words, and invited Xu Shiyan and his wife to speak.
What can Xu Shiyan and his wife say? How to raise children on this occasion? This is not what people want to hear.
So simply thank those who were present and those who were not present, and thank everyone for their kindness.
"In order to thank you for your kindness, our husband and wife prepare some bolognese and vegetarian dishes to entertain relatives and friends.
For today’s meal, everyone eats and drinks openly, and they will not return if they are not drunk. "
The atmosphere is here, just say a few words, and the training will be over.
Everyone roared with laughter, and then the table started directly.
Today's banquet is very sumptuous, with twelve dishes, chicken, fish, knuckle, shrimp and various hard dishes, as well as beer, red wine and white wine.
Everyone has been busy since the morning, and quite a few of them haven’t eaten at noon, so they still care about that and start eating.
Such a happy day, the group of old men couldn't bear it anymore, each poured some wine, and drank a few gleefully.
"Oh, this thing is not as good as white wine."
Zhao Dahai took a sip and tapped his mouth, feeling unpleasant.
But there is no trick, they are all old, and the children have clearly stipulated that if they want to drink, this is the only thing they want, and they don’t even think about liquor.
That's all, don't worry about the red and white, as long as you can make sense of it, just be happy.
Xu Haiyuan is still young, the big guys can't drink him, and Xu Shiyan and his wife can't run away.
"Congratulations to Mr. Xu and Mr. Su. With such an outstanding son, this child will definitely have a bright future in the future.
Mr. Xu and Mr. Su are blessed and enviable. Come, let's offer a toast to both of you. "
The leaders of the Forestry Bureau, the managers and factory directors of the ginseng companies, and the leaders of Donggang Town, these people took turns to toast.
My son is promising, and it's all for face when he can come to congratulate him, so why not drink a toast?
After going back and forth, Xu Shiyan and his wife drank a lot.
By the end of the banquet, Xu Shiyan was already so drunk that he was walking staggeringly, and was helped home by Xu Haiyuan and Xu Haibo.
Xu Haiyuan saw that his father was so drunk, so he hurriedly boiled a bowl of hangover soup and fed it to his father.
Xu Shiyan can still drink, but he is not a young man at this age, not as good as before.
After tossing and going out, I vomited for a while, and when I came back to drink sober soup, I felt much more comfortable.
"Dad, drink less alcohol in the future, it's important for your health."
Xu Haiyuan supported his father to sit on the edge of the kang, and couldn't help nagging.
"Well, age is not forgiving. If we wait for the past, we won't be like this if we drink a little more."
Xu Shiyan leaned on the kangqin and sat firmly, looking at his eldest son and laughing.
"I'm happy today, I really didn't drink less, it won't happen in the future, don't worry.
My eldest son is promising, and he won a gold medal in a competition abroad. Your dad is happy today, always happy, really. "
This is the truth. At the beginning, Xu Shiyan only wanted to keep his eldest son, but he never imagined that his eldest son would be so promising.
Xu Haiyuan heard it, um, it’s okay, his dad probably didn’t drink too much. Drunk people never say they are drunk, they are stubborn.
I haven't been able to sleep well in the past two days, and I have a headache. Let's update the four thousand today.
This book is estimated to be finished within this month.
