Chapter 68 Tea instead of wine
In the past two days, Tang Yi has been adjusted and maintained several times, and finally let people accept the fact that he smokes.
In fact, he just didn't let the people in the office know, and he still smoked when he returned to the dormitory, because the environment there was a little freer.
However, it's okay to say it, so that everyone has no scruples. At most, the idea of quitting smoking on my own will be eliminated temporarily.
The strange thing is that instead of blaming themselves, everyone persuaded themselves to smoke better and smoke less.
Tang Yi was grateful. When they met such a group of lovely people, they did not laugh at their own situation, but persuaded themselves with a loving heart and asked themselves.
The capital is a great place!
Tang Yi said to himself more than once that no matter what kind of encounter and experience, Tang Yi can feel the benefits of the capital, although they may not necessarily be from the capital, but they are a part of the capital, exuding the kindness, friendship and atmosphere that the people of the capital should have.
In the past two days, the department is looking forward to it, because Director Ge is going to hold a celebration banquet for everyone, which can be regarded as a tail tooth at the end of the year.
Although the work is busy, it is necessary to properly adjust and motivate, and he can let people experience the warm atmosphere of the whole team to a certain extent.
Tang Yi didn't think much about it, and he wouldn't say excuses to shirk, after all, he was part of the team.
However, I don't like to drink too much, because it's really uncomfortable to drink. But if you organize drinking, you can't be so capricious, not only to drink, but also to be able to drink, and dare to drink at critical moments.
The dinner party arrived as scheduled.
On this day, Director Yang drove his own car with Tang Yi, Director Lu and Li Yujiao.
"Don Jr., do you know how to drink?"
"A little, but generally very little. Tang Yi replied to Director Yang.
"Director Lu can drink. Li Yujiao said on the side.
"Hehe, I didn't learn anything else in the army, so I learned to drink. "Director Lu is also welcome.
"Smoke less, but you can still drink a little wine. Because alcohol is not very addictive. "Director Yang's driving skills are good.
"It's rare to see you drinking, but you should be pretty good. Tang Yi said.
"I don't usually drink much, and I drink it at dinner once in a while. Drinking is sometimes just to drink an atmosphere, drink more when you are happy, and drink less when you are unhappy, not reluctantly. Director Yang was very interested in talking about this topic.
"Drink more and show performance. Director Yang didn't say anything when he was cordial.
Director Lu was also polite, and opened the conversation box to tell the story of drinking on the weekend.
Along the way, there was also talk and laughter. Soon arrived at the destination, Tang Yi saw the signboard of "Tiandi No. 1".
Tang Yi felt both familiar and unfamiliar, familiar was that whether it was a large restaurant or a small-scale tavern, he had never been to it before, and the strange thing was that he had made up the numbers every time, just eat and drink, and nothing else had to worry about, so he was naturally not so impressed.
Upstairs, the staff of the headquarters also arrived one after another, and everyone got together, and everyone chatted for a while, telling their recent experiences.
I heard that there will be a director in charge coming over today, which can be regarded as the importance of our project, and everyone is looking forward to it. The leader is the protagonist on this occasion, so Tang Yi has no choice but to adjust his mentality as much as possible.
At the beginning of the celebration banquet, Tang Yi sat next to Yang Chao.
Director Ge opened his mouth, summarized the work in the recent stage, affirmed the colleagues of the Innovation Park project, and introduced the director by the way.
The director is obviously a man of letters with a very temperamental temperament, and he speaks in a gentle and elegant manner, with the air of a scholar.
Moreover, this director is very interested in history, and he does not leave history in three sentences.
Coincidentally, Tang Yi is also interested in history, so he can also talk.
Tang Yi actually didn't know that the most valued person in this circle was actually himself.
Senior Sister Qing looked at herself and was also very interested, she thought that she usually had this performance at this time, it seemed that she usually underestimated herself.
Originally, Tang Yi was going to drink it, but as soon as the wine was served, it was all white.
This one... How to drink, I usually drink less, and today's scene must be indispensable for toasting. I'm afraid that this liquor will make me unconscious.
So Tang Yi changed his mind: replace wine with tea.
No matter what people say about themselves after the meal, keeping an image and a clear head comes first.
No one forced themselves on the scene.
Yang Chao is also very powerful, the wine is in his stomach one by one, and the director of the oar opposite is also not refusal, and soon his neck is red.
Under the chairmanship of the director and the mediation of the director, the venue was staggered, and there was laughter from time to time, and the atmosphere was quite good.
It's just bitter Tang Yi.
Because of this choice, Tang Yi was marginalized, he didn't have his shadow for a long time, and because he drank tea, he wouldn't be too active.
Except for the courtesy salute to the leader, the others ate and drank by themselves.
And when he was respecting the director, he was even blinded, only to know that he had an opinion about only drinking tea, and fortunately, he had a round field of affectionate senior sisters.
Wine is indeed a culture.
I thought that I was a fledgling when I was a bowl of rice wine, and I didn't blink my eyes. At the beginning, I was glad that I could drink and had the gene to drink. However, due to various reasons, I didn't touch it very much in the end, so gradually the amount of alcohol became average. Later, I became addicted to smoking, and the so-called smoking and drinking without leaving home is also deceptive, so the amount of alcohol stays in a very ordinary position.
Therefore, on this occasion today, Tang Yi still didn't dare to drink, since he didn't dare to drink, he simply didn't drink it, and replaced the wine with tea.
But Tang Yi has drunk wine, he can toast, and he is courteous and orderly, polite, and polite, and this is the reason why the girls muttered in the back after the gang broke up.
However, of course, wine is in the limelight, and tea is also bleak, just as today, Yang Chao, the director of the director, is the protagonist, and he is an inconspicuous little person hiding in the corner.
If you are willing to give, you will gain and lose, it is true.
Tang Yi obviously realized this, so he kept a lot of low profile at the wine table.
However, Yang Chao gave himself a lot of face.
The first time he respected him, he said "rare", and later he said "lucky" when he respected himself from time to time.
I am finally in a corner, but no one will pay attention to it, no one cares.
Director Lu was also busy at the other end, and he took the initiative to toast, but there was an endless stream of people who saluted him behind, and he was also happy to receive the wine, becoming one of the most lively spots. Sure enough, it's a good amount of alcohol.
When Tang Yi was worried about whether Director Lu could do it, he put down his wine glass, took out a cigarette, and scattered Tang Yi. Then I couldn't take care of others anymore, raised my voice, and was overjoyed to raise a mountain over there.
The celebration banquet was still a success, everyone basically had their due expression in their position, they were either in charge, or transition, or private conversation, all showed their glorious side, and the atmosphere was also very harmonious. Of course, the wine was on point, the dishes were plentiful, and I felt the atmosphere and generosity of the department.
Of course, it is a little insufficient for Tang Yi. Although Director Lu's cigarette also gave him a long face, his plan to replace wine with tea was a bit lacking after all, and he indirectly lost the opportunity to mingle with everyone, and he failed to leave a deep impression on Senior Sister Qing.
Although the atmosphere was very good, Tang Yi slightly felt as if he was an outsider, and he had marginalized himself, which was very bad.
Of course, he is not the focus, so it will not have much negative impact on the venue, but Tang Yi also understands that in China, especially as a boy, it seems very unreasonable not to drink, although no one will force it, but in the final analysis, it is a consciousness in the world.
What he didn't expect was that this was the only and final party Tang Yi attended, because he didn't expect that he would be forced to leave here for some reason without being ready.
In the capital, what was left to him was full of positive energy.
