Chapter 81 Quota for the Lawyers' Debate Competition (5)
But Wu Qingyi's situation is different from Lao Dong's, Lao Dong's profession is a teacher, he retires and receives a high salary, his son is a boss, Wu Qingyi's children are all workers in state-owned enterprises in Baishui Prefecture, it is difficult to re-employ after being laid, his wife is not in good health, and the family depends on Wu Qingyi to live.
"Don't think about it so much, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and one day they will have to live on their own. ”
Wu Qingyi didn't take this bad thing into account, so at the age of seventy-two he still insisted on his post, he was busy with work, neglected to discipline his children, and when his children grew up, he didn't pull down his face to ask someone to find a good job, as a result, a son and a daughter entered the factory, and the object of the search was also a colleague in the factory, after the factory was sold to foreign businessmen, both families were laid off.
The laid-off couple still don't want to be motivated, stay at home and gnaw at the old with peace of mind, just gnaw the old, the night before yesterday, the daughter-in-law actually quarreled over the daughter's family going back to her parents' house to eat fried rice noodles.
He decided to retire and stay at home with his wife to take care of his grandchildren, so that whether the children and daughters go out to do odd jobs or do some small business, they can't stay at home to be giant babies in their prime.
This thought has been swirling in his heart for a long time, and what prompted him to make up his mind was indeed that from the time he learned that Li Lixing was going to give Zhang Mei the quota for the debate competition, he asked himself, he didn't think he was selfish, Huang Yixi was indeed more suitable than Zhang Mei to be a contestant.
Huang Yixi and Zhang Mei are usually two kinds of people, Huang Yixi is usually introverted and gentle, she smiles when she meets people, she doesn't speak harshly, and she doesn't stand on her toes, like a little girl in the neighborhood.
But in the courtroom, her whole person is completely different, she is familiar with the terms, carefully fights every lawsuit, studies omissions and wrong views, changes the usual speechless, side-by-side attack, gushing, shining, watching her debate is an art.
Zhang Mei usually looks down at people's eyes, but when she meets a person with money and power, her whole temperament changes, she is more diligent in studying customer preferences than business, and she will only bite the bullet in the court, and will not be flexible, and those who have dealt with her, whether it is a judge or a lawyer on the other side, do not have a high evaluation of her.
It's just one thing, what he didn't expect at that time was that when he said about the quota, Li Lixing didn't agree immediately, but mentioned his retirement, and he went downhill with the donkey.
Although there are plans to retire, it is one thing to want to mention it yourself, and it is another thing to be forced to bring it up.
After he finished talking that day, he returned to the office and sat by himself all night, drinking cold bitter tea, recalling the bits and pieces of the seaside law firm founded with Li Lixing.
At noon, the sun was still scorching, and before the afternoon work time arrived, the sky suddenly darkened, dark clouds rolled, thunder and lightning flashed, and after a while, the wind and rain arrived.
Huang Yixi was in a very bad mood in the afternoon, put down Li Min's phone call to say the party, and was still cowardly, so he simply put down what he was doing and went to Meijian Xiaozhu in advance.
Meijian Xiaozhu's business is particularly good today, and the people of Baishui Prefecture believe in a saying, rainy days, card playing days, and soju days.
"It's been raining in the northwest for so long, and it's still so hot. Yu Qiu shook his umbrella, and the eaves of the small plum building were raindropped into a small soil pit, and the smell of soil came to his face.
Huang Yixi put his elbow on the table and stroked half of his face, and unconsciously turned the wine glass with one hand, thinking heavily.
"Didn't you just win a lawsuit? Why are you so unhappy? Wu Meili asked puzzled.
The three of them rarely saw Huang Yixi's expression exposed, which showed that the matter was really serious.
Huang Yixi told her what the master had done for her.
"I have also heard our prosecutor general say that this debate tournament is special, your master can do so much for you, you must not live up to his expectations, you must participate. Yu Qiu said with certainty.
"But ......."
Huang Yixi is not unaware of the rarity and preciousness of this opportunity.
"Don't you often say that a lawyer is a self-employed person, shouldn't it be okay for your master to practice in a different law firm? Wu Meimei's eyes flashed, not understanding Huang Yixi's distress.
In her opinion, it's not a big deal to change offices, and it's not an official ape, so you can't live without the system, no, Wu Qingyi is still the first batch of official apes to go to the sea.
"There's no way he's going to leave Binhai Law Firm and go to another law firm. Huang Yixi sighed, Binhai Law Firm was founded by Wu Qingyi and Li Lixing, just like his own children, which father would leave his children to go to others.
"Then what do you want? Do you want to change votes? You do this to no avail, and you have failed your master's wishes. Yu Qiu persuaded that she was actually very envious of Huang Yixi, and all the people she met were good people, as she said in her fate, there were always noble people to help.
"I don't know what to do. Huang Yixi was depressed, put his hands behind his back, and leaned his chin on the table in confusion.
"It's all a bad thing, don't think about it so much, drink well," Li Min sighed as he drank the El light beer, "We ate a lot of food today, and we finally drank the taste of hops." ”
Lin Shufang asked Huang Yixi for additional lawyer fees after the lawsuit, but Huang Yixi didn't ask for it, so she sent a few imported food shopping cards, and even Chen Lihua brought two old hens, and Huang Yixi bought some snacks and put them in the law firm, and the rest was used to buy wine.
When the four of them got together, they all bought the wine sold by Wu Meili, which was cheaper than the market, but Wu Meili sold domestic beer in addition to the red wine that took away the water.
In recent years, the competition of domestic beer has been too strong, the price has been falling, the labor cost has been rising, and the cost of beer can only be cut. ”
"I've been living like a grandson these days, and after drinking this bottle, I feel like I'm a queen too. Yu Qiu sighed.
Probably the earliest beer of mankind, Ale was successfully brewed by the British in the Middle Ages and was loved by princes and nobles.
However, the first "ale" beer was an ale without hops, and hops were introduced to England from the Netherlands in 1524. Queen Elizabeth I reigned for 45 years, and she had to make a special trip to carry Ale beer for drinking.
"Why do I think that a certain island and a certain spring beer are delicious, even a certain Jin feels better than this wine. ”
Wu Meili had a bitter face, changed her usual habit of drinking in large gulps, and took small sips one after another, as if drinking Chinese medicine.
Ale light beer is indeed very suitable for women to drink, this beer has more hops, but the taste is light, pure, suitable for a variety of food, compared with domestic beer, the proportion of light malt in the raw materials is higher, so the beer color is lighter, but rich in hops, the malt taste is very strong, the taste is strong and even a little bitter.
"A certain spring used to be good, but now it has long been poured, a certain island used to be okay, but now it is not good, as for a certain Jin, Asao Zai's beer, as soon as I drink it, I have diarrhea, the reason why you think it is not delicious, is because your mouth that is used to eating gutter oil, of course, you will feel that imported olive oil tastes bad. Yu Qiuleng was unprepared, but it was a very appropriate interpretation of this phenomenon.
