Previous Chapter

The director and Manager Huo came in pinch, sitting in a newly bought milky white "Toyota" car, and two women came up in the same car, Lao Bai and a strange woman. Lao Bai said that he went up the mountain to do some errands, and by the way, he came by car. In fact, everyone understands in their hearts that people are scene people, there are scenes, no matter how big or small, they like to show their faces, show their demeanor, and look bright. Now that the department is contracted, their chemical fiber department has the best benefits and the most commissions. She wore a fuchsia dress today, which is said to cost hundreds of yuan in Guangzhou. She should have a bit of a homecoming in such a spacious outfit, right? But she was born with a clothes rack, and beautiful clothes on her body really complemented each other. A woman like her is probably the kind of person who leads the fashion trend in the street market, right?

The strange woman was a new custodian, transferred from the county cotton mill. Manager Huo brought her up, which was a welcome welcome by the way, but also asked her to hand over the accounts with "Squint". She is about the same age as Ma Da Fat and Lao Bai, and she should be the same age group. Although she is now old and looks a little fat, judging from her figure, she must have been a standard fair lady when she was young. The wind and frost of the years have obviously covered up the innocence and romance of the past on her face, pure and elegant, but that is only a superficial cover-up, like a gust of dust blown by the wind, sprinkled on the smooth, shiny street, and then the wind blows, the sand will fly again, at least some of it will fly, revealing some of the undertone.

Our director's surname is Wu, because he often comes up to the mountain on Saturdays to take a bath, and we are really no strangers to him. But when Mr. Wu visited the courtyard on Saturday, we all watched from afar the old-fashioned Shanghai sedan, slightly awkwardly climbing up the hill, driving into the courtyard, and then humming straight to the bath. Many times, the director in our field of vision is the back, and occasionally we can hear the director's cough coming from the other side of the bath, but we never hear him speak. The iconic image of the director that impresses us is that the director is bald, and only a circle on the top of his head, very regularly bald. There is also the general aging kind of figure, Yongyong is swollen and swollen, and it cannot be said that he is obese, in fact, you can feel that he is full of slack and slackness when you look at it.

Director Wu is half a head taller than Manager Huo, and the two of them are about the same age, but Huo Bi Wu looks dignified. This kind of majesty has nothing to do with the size of the official, it may be because Manager Huo has always been tense and can't see slack and slack, so the official authority is revealed, right? Of course, from another level, the old Huo Tou is so old, and the man's energy on his body is still so active, "sexual"

It's fun. At the very least, he has to maintain his majesty in front of the woman he likes, and the majesty of a man is one of the ecstasy drugs that make women's hearts surge and throw themselves into their arms next.

Lao Huotou is not a five-short figure, but it is only slightly taller than this figure. In terms of figure, he is exactly the same as Lao Wangtou, it is simply out of the same mold, they are short, thick, and strong, and they have the same accent. There must be a certain relationship between these two old men.

The performance of the "Toyota" is obviously much stronger than that of the "old Shanghai", and it did not take much effort to climb the big slope in front of our hospital. We had just heard a swift car sound when a milky white flat iron guy rushed into the yard, fast and light. It seems that when rushing down the slope just now, "Toyota" was also relaxed, not screaming or shouting, otherwise we would have heard the car ring. The car stopped behind the "East Wind", and Lao Li said in a strange manner: "Director, you still have to applaud?

"Other people's things are just slippery! If you don't accept it, you can't do it! "Hell-brained!" Changqing said to Lao Li with sincere admiration.

The director glanced at Lao Li and ignored him. He glanced down at his watch, an anxious look on his face, as if he was waiting for someone.

The director and his group of four got out of the car, Lao Li took the lead in applauding, and everyone applauded. According to the usual rules of officialdom, the first leader comes first, the first to appear, and the entourage follows in turn. But this time it was Manager Huo who showed his face first, and if he was in terms of rank, he was a big step behind the director of the bureau! Later, I learned that Director Wu and Manager Huo were both demobilized cadres of the same army. Hobby Wu is several levels older, whether it is in the army or in the place, it is Huo who is in charge of Wu. After Huo made the mistake of "fundamentalism", he was demoted several levels. Officials like him who were taken down from above, and the subordinate units were unwilling to accept them, and they were all worried that they would not be able to control them, and in the end, Wu "took in" Huo. Moreover, the Wu Bureau deliberately separated the supply and marketing department of the bureau and expanded it into a supply and marketing company, so that Huo was the leader and stood alone. Treating his old superiors, Wu Ju really has good intentions, and he can be regarded as benevolent and righteous. Judging from the current situation, Huo is used to being on it, and he hasn't found the feeling of being subordinate to others for a while, at least in front of Director Wu, so he came out first.

Because there is such a special relationship between Director Wu and Manager Huo, the director said just now that he wanted to move his circle chair out, and Section Chief Xu hurriedly stopped him. According to normal circumstances, in this scene, the director should be the leader, and a swivel chair can be placed, but judging from Lao Huotou's strong character, he will inevitably feel uncomfortable. One is his own head superior, and the other is the head of the top superior, Section Chief Xu only knows that there is only one circle chair at the scene, and his head boss must be uncomfortable. He really couldn't tell if his immediate boss was comfortable, and whether the eldest boss of his immediate boss would feel comfortable? Therefore, a big man from Shandong, who was said to have carried a telephone pole, was speechless for a while, and could only make gestures and create a few mute words of his own.

Lao Huotou got out of the car, heard the applause, and seemed to have suddenly found the feeling when he was a big leader. He assumed the standard posture of leading the grassroots, waved his hands at us with a smile and said, "Hello everyone, hello everyone!"

"Ahh She either can't help it, or she is habitual, or she may be deliberately funny, making a movement to attract everyone's attention. No matter what you say, it is obvious that from the perspective of stinky workers, Ma Dapang is really stronger than Section Chief Xu, at least she is not too jealous in the face of her superiors.

Then the director also got out of the car, and he smiled at us and waved his hand a few times, but did not speak. It may also be a habitual obedience, Director Wu really doesn't feel inappropriate about Manager Huo's overstepping behavior, at least on the surface. However, he was indifferent in the face of the intrusion of his subordinates, either the superior was magnanimous and big-minded, or he was lax and slack, and his official authority was also slack. I think it is because of the latter that Wu Ju is so calm.

"Hello Director!" Lao Li waited for Wu Ju to get out of the car, put Manager Huo aside, and suddenly shouted. It seems that Lao Li's impression of Wu Ju is still good, and his voice is clearly showing his attitude. Lao Li's likes and dislikes are obviously out of orthodox concepts, because although this Wu Ju is a "good man" type leader and adheres to "maintenanceism", he has a strong style and no fancy intestines, and he still guards his wife arranged by his parents in the past and lives a happy life.

"Wu Bureau is good, the manager is good. The manager is good, and the Wu bureau is good. Welcome to our meeting to guide the work, or invite the two leaders to sit down. Section Chief Xu saw that Manager Huo's face had changed, and his displeasure immediately overflowed, and he hurriedly stepped forward to round the field and said.

"Yes, yes. It's hard to answer right when you stand up, and it's a family when you sit down. The director also saw the clue and echoed it. He had been looking towards the gate of the courtyard just now, and he had forgotten that our first leader should greet the first leader and the secondary leader above.

"Ahh Her very exaggerated fuss and shouting completely distracted everyone's attention, and it also gave Lao Huotou an excessive time. Ma Da Fat is usually always blown up, and it seems that he is quite optimistic at some point.

Ma Dapang exploded so suddenly, and immediately seized the limelight. When everyone's attention was focused again, it fell on the two leaders, and they were already seated. Without too many hints from Section Chief Xu, Wu Ju and Manager Huo seemed to naturally decide that the two circle chairs placed in the middle were their seats, and the two leaders walked straight over and took their seats. The new custodian nodded his forehead, which was considered to be a response to Ma Da Fat, but he did not reply immediately. She walked towards Ma Da Fat, and Lao Bai followed, and "Squinting Eyes" also followed. As soon as you look at the dress, you can know that these four women are of the same age, and they can also be said to be women of the same class, but if you make a detailed difference, it is easy to distinguish from their behaviors and behaviors of communicating together, laughing, and behaving. Lao Bai and Ma Da Fat are the same category, enthusiastic and unrestrained, and can even be said to be dissolute. Such women are in the spotlight no matter what the occasion, and if they are not the men themselves who feel that they cannot control, they are the targets of men's eyes or covert. "Squinting" and the new custodian are the same category, reserved and enthusiastic, always restrained, occasionally revealing a hint of charming style, but one style, but all kinds of charming. This kind of woman is generally the target of a certain type of man's focus, they are always in their own circle, never go out of this circle easily, and they like to grasp the process, and they can grasp the process.

The four women were still afraid of the presence of the leader, and were trying their best to keep their voices down, but they also listened to the "chatter", and the scene was very enthusiastic to talk. The face of the old Huo Tou sitting on the circle chair has not completely changed, and it is still quite ugly. It should be said that Manager Huo is a straightforward temper who is both happy and angry, and the leaders who are often not good at hiding themselves are officials with strong personalities and strong abilities. Lao Huo's head parted his five fingers, and from time to time he raised his hand to comb a few locks of gray hair that he had vaguely counted, but still carefully groomed. He kept repeating the same action like this, probably trying his best to restrain his emotions so as not to have a seizure. Manager Huo repeated the same action several times, and suddenly twitched his nose a few times, as if he was attracted by something. He looked down, and the dark clouds on his face immediately dispersed.

"I said Old Tang! Originally, I asked you to prepare some peanuts, melon seeds, sugar cubes, etc., which meant it. You've got to get seven plates, eight bowls. I have something to say first, don't expect me to reimburse you! Now that everything is ready and it's time to eat, let's have something to eat, right?" Old Huo Tou was obviously attracted by the plate of "waist flowers" in front of him, he raised his head, looked greedy, and shouted at the director.

"There is a drink, there is a drink. The director quickly replied. He saw that the manager's face was full of clouds, and he also looked a little more relaxed, but he had been nervous just now. Seeing him like that, standing is awkward, I want to go to a seat, but I am afraid of being reprimanded in the past. Not only the director, but also Section Chief Xu simply said a few more dumb words to the director, which means that he has something to do with his stomach, and he has to go to the thatched house quickly, and he has already slipped away with the cat's tail. Personal problems aside, for the time being, judging from the degree of deterrence of the leader to his subordinates, Lao Huotou is still full of prestige in his own territory, and this prestige will never be just based on superficial majesty.

"If there is, you will be on it! What other leaders are going to be present?" asked Lao Huotou with a dissatisfied glaring at the director. It seems that our manager has a lot of temperament, and he doesn't fight in one place, so he can't easily go from one place, and he is still finding fault intentionally or unintentionally.

"Lao Huo, according to the rules, you can't drink during working hours? But now, it's okay to have a farewell party for Comrade Lao Wang today, make an exception, and it's okay, right?" Before the director could reply, Director Wu spoke slowly and methodically. This is the first time we have heard the director speak on a fairly formal occasion, and listening to his tone, I didn't deliberately play an official tone, but I just felt that it was tasteless, and it was as loose as his style.

"Come now, come right away. The director waited for Director Wu to finish speaking, and said without confidence at all. He looked distraughtly at the gate of the courtyard and then looked down at his watch. When he looked up again, it seemed that he had a new idea, and he was about to express it.

The sound of motorcycles came up from below the slope. Because there are very few motorcycles on the road in front of our yard, that kind of movement sounds very special, and the average person in our yard can hear that this is Xiao Jiang's big "happiness" rushing up. Our confirmation of sound is a very subtle perceptual phenomenon, which is an intuitive cognition. There is always a specific sound that feeds into your senses around you that you are constantly in contact with, and once the persistent input has a specific continuity, you will become familiar. You don't have to deliberately remember a particular continuity, this is this, that is that, in fact, there is no table or standard for how to distinguish at all, then you will magically distinguish this sound, that sound, and the ability to distinguish is unlimited.

"It's not wine, it's drinking, it's drinking. The director had obviously heard that it was the great "happiness" rushing up, and a stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. He returned to normal, and said with a smile to Director Wu. As soon as the director's words landed, Laizi rode into the courtyard with a big "happiness". The shed we built was quite large, and a large truck of tarpaulin was completely pulled open, and tables and chairs were placed inside, and there was still an open space on the side of the office. Lai Zi rode a motorcycle into the shed and stopped behind the circle chairs of Manager Huo and Wu Ju. On the back seat of his motorcycle were two specially made wooden barrels.

"Draft beer! It turns out that this kid has gone to get beer? It's very hard! This trip suddenly went to 'Niuxinling', it's not close!" Changqing saw Lai Zi coming back with two barrels, as if he had just understood the taste, and whispered to me. Changqing and Lao Li and I stood opposite Manager Huo, and the leader didn't speak, and they didn't take their seats rashly.

"He's really working hard, and he's made an eye-catching appearance!" I saw that Manager Huo and Director Wu all turned around, and their attention was all on Lai Zi, and they said to Changqing as if they had realized something.

"What's the work, what's going on?" Changqing asked, looking at me inexplicably.

"Why did you come back, damn stinky, I thought you were riding in the ditch!" the director waited for Laizi to stop the car, walked over quickly, and scolded loudly. It seems that Laizi went to get draft beer just now, and he talked to the director. He didn't return for a long time, and the director was worried that something would happen to him, and he really suffered a lot, and now he still has lingering palpitations. If something happens to Laizi, he will be responsible!

"With our technology, we can't slip off the city wall! Now this thing is a pretty thing, it's not easy to get it! If it weren't for my iron buddy in the brewery, I wouldn't be able to get it at all! People don't sell it in retail. Lai Zi flipped off the motorcycle with one leg and said proudly. He was facing the director head-on, but his eyes were always on Lao Huotou.

"It's like horse urine, what do you have to drink?" Lao Li suddenly interjected at this time. Just now he just wanted to embarrass Lao Huotou, so he deliberately spoke loudly, and now he muttered to himself, not loudly. But it was still heard by the driver of the "Toyota" car behind him, because everyone's attention was on the person who got out of the car just now, and no one paid attention to who the driver in the car was.

"The owner of the carriage just drank horse pee! That thing drank it and walked at night to strengthen his courage! This draft beer is brewed with equipment imported from Japan, and it is addictive to drink a drink, and it is cool and relieves the heat, and it is delicious! It is delicious!" As soon as Lao Li finished muttering, the door of the cab of the "Toyota" car was pushed open by the driver, and soon a shiny bald head poked upwards while passing the word.

"The bald head is right! What is taste! Good equipment makes good wine, and all the good drinks are for good people! This draft beer is much more nutritious than your spicy throats!" "Squinting Eyes" was still chatting with Lao Bai and a few of them "hee-hee-ha-ha", and she could still notice the situation on our side. As soon as the bald driver finished speaking, she said loudly.

"Is the bald head really soaked in the bureau?" Changqing looked at the bald driver and whispered in disbelief.

"Secondment! temporary. Lao Li said knowingly.

"Jiang Guangtou" is also the driver in our yard, but I haven't seen him much since the day I went to work. The ostensible reason is that he said that he suffers from intermittent deafness, so he often takes a sick number and treats at home. The real reason is that he wants to transfer to the bureau to drive a car, but Lao Huotou just won't let go, so he simply found a physical excuse and didn't go to work well, anyway, he said that he sometimes couldn't hear, and the hospital couldn't diagnose whether he was sometimes really deaf or falsely deaf, and no one could take him.

"Okay, okay, okay! Don't be blind! You have everything you need to eat and drink, hurry up and sit down for a meeting!" Old Huo Tou may have been aroused by the "waist flower" on the table, and his stomach was hungry, so he slapped the table and shouted at all of us. Then he deliberately asked Laizi, who was standing behind him, "What's your big name?"

"Liu Hongwei!" Lai Zi replied with a rare respectful smile.

"The name is quite grandiose! Nicknamed Laizi?" Old Huo Tou looked Laizi up and down carefully, and said with some mockery.

"Nicknamed Lai Zi, it was made by someone else, we are not bad, a serious and good guy!" Lai Zi raised his head and said stiffly. It was as if he was being reviewed.

"Sorry, that's good, good guy, please sit down?" Old Huotou's expression became indifferent, and he said lukewarmly.

We were all seated, and the farewell party officially began. Manager Huo and Director Wu humbled each other, and in the end, Huo said a few words first. Before Lao Huotou joined the army, he didn't know a single big character, but he had a good brain, and he worked hard to learn culture, and soon he was literate and hyphenated. In the past, there were not many educated people in the army, but Lao Huotou was educated, brave in battle, and had a certain strategy, so he was promoted step by step, and when he was transferred to a local job, he was already equivalent to a division-level cadre. Lao Huotou looked around at the people present, straightened his face, and said in a formal tone that he used when holding a meeting on a formal occasion: "Comrades, today we are holding a small farewell party here to see off our old master Wang officially retiring. As he spoke, he raised his hand and gestured to the old Wang Tou who was sitting on the horizontal side over there, and then continued: "According to my original intention, I am going to hold a large-scale farewell party in the bureau theater, so that everyone can know and understand, what kind of person Master Wang is!

"Lao Huo, Lao Huo, didn't we say okay? Don't mention this, don't mention this!" Old Huo Tou was talking more and more sonorously, and the old Wang Tou suddenly interrupted him, waved his hand at him again and again, and said eagerly. It can be seen that this old man really doesn't want to "shake off" his old bottom, and he is definitely not pretending to be foreign!

"I'll tell you, Lao Wang! I'll have the final say here today, unless you come and cut off my tongue and drink it, I'll have to shake it off! I've been carrying the black cauldron for you for several years?

"Manager Huo, I take the liberty of interjecting a sentence? It stands to reason that the leader is speaking, I shouldn't say too much, but I still want to talk. Since Lao Wang, a meritorious man, didn't want to show off his merits, there must be some special reason, and we should respect his own wishes?" Maybe she was also the one who was sent off, but Lao Huotou ignored her, and didn't mention it by the way, she deliberately talked back, right? Anyway, she has been promoted, and she is not afraid of offending her original boss.

"A man of merit! How do you know that he is a man of merit? Only me and Wu Ju know about this, and we have never told outsiders!" asked Lao Huotou as he stared at his "squinting eyes" in surprise.

"Whoever is supposed to be what is what is what is and what is not what is not? Master Wang, why don't you say it yourself? Say a few words and pick up what you can say. Wu Ju was not surprised at all, he looked at the old Wang Tou, and said slowly. However, what he said was very interesting, this is the experience after the experience, and it is also the experience after seeing through, which may also be the reason for his slackness, right?

The old king looked at the "squinting eyes", and the "squinting eyes" also looked at him. The two of them were making eye contact, passing each other information that only these two people could read, and it was difficult for outsiders to understand. The old king seemed to be weighing something, but finally made up his mind. He suddenly became nonchalant and said to Manager Huo: "Old Huo, you still say it, I'm stupid." Anyway, I have contributed, and how I contribute is also a contribution! White cats and black cats, catching rats is a good cat!"

"Is there anything else going on here?" asked Manager Huo with doubts at the old king's head. "Squinting" interjected, Director Wu was so integrated, it really stuck Manager Huo and interrupted his train of thought just now. He had realized that he was not all in the know about the old king. Manager Huo saw that Lao Wangtou didn't mean to reply, in fact, he just asked, and didn't expect Lao Wangtou to answer. He was simply showing that he was acutely aware of something new that was emerging. Sure enough, Manager Huo didn't continue to ask, he put aside the old king's head, looked around at everyone and said, "I'll figure this out in the future!" Okay, now let's get down to business." I'll just pick up the main ones. My old Huo Tou is blind and doesn't dare to touch him? Let him go? Absolutely not! You know that Master Wang is a meritorious man who has made special contributions to the revolution!" Speaking of this, Lao Huo Tou stopped, looked at Wu Ju and asked, "Let's just pick up the one with the greatest credit? You and I both know this, and you were still the squadron leader at that time." ”

"The credit of Master Wang in this matter is really too great! Wu Ju nodded slightly and said.

"It was still during the Anti-Japanese War, and our Independent Brigade of the Eighth Route Army got accurate information from Master Wang and intercepted ten truckloads of guns and ammunition from the devils. It was 10 truckloads of munitions! Comrades, this is enough to equip a battalion! Moreover, we suffered zero casualties in that battle, because the Japanese devils' transport operation was very secretive, and the military vehicles and transport personnel were all camouflaged, so there were not many soldiers escorted, and we took them down at once! Master Wang, who is neither a soldier nor a member of the party, is my fellow countryman, and it is not easy to get such important and secret information! It is all the more respectable that he can pass it on to me in a timely manner. He is just a common man, and once he is found out by the devils, he will be beheaded! After the liberation, Master Wang worked as an ordinary worker in a textile factory in our city, and I met him one day and transferred him to the company. I asked him what he wanted, and he said that he wanted to delay his retirement so that his daughter could take over. Can I not agree to this request?" Lao Huo Tou finished these words in one breath, and we all were silent for a while at the same time, and then applauded warmly from the bottom of our hearts, rushing at the old king's head and also at the old Huo's head. Only the "squinting eyes" looked indifferent, and slapped a few times very reluctantly, and coped with the matter.

"Good! affectionate, righteous, dare to take responsibility, and be a good manager!" Laizi applauded and cheered.

"I really didn't expect it, don't look at this old king who looks like a bandit, and once worked as an underground worker!"

"Our manager is also good, it's funny! We blame him all these years, we are villains!"

"It's an honor, it's an honor, it's a blessing for three lives! It turns out that there is an old revolution to show us the door over the years?"

••••••

"Alright, alright, don't choke. Manager Huo slapped the table vigorously and shouted. After everyone stopped talking and quieted down, Manager Huo continued to speak: "Seeing that a lifetime is about to pass, but our meritorious man has not officially spoken on a formal occasion, so let's ask Master Wang to say a few words officially!"

As soon as Lao Huotou's words landed, we all applauded warmly. Obviously, this applause was even more enthusiastic than the last time, and such a high level of enthusiasm was purely generated from the bottom of our hearts, because it was a round of applause for ordinary people like us. From the information we just received, we all agreed that it was worth applauding him, at least at the time, on the spot, without collusion.

Don't say it, Lao Wang is really eager to say a few words formally on a formal occasion. It seems that he was prepared, and this time he didn't shirk it, and he was humble. He took out a red-checked manuscript paper from his pocket, looked around everyone solemnly, and then said solemnly: "Yes, it's a lifetime, and my old man hasn't spoken officially, so I'll say a few words." As he spoke, he unfolded the manuscript paper, put it in front of his eyes and read: "Dear leaders, dear colleagues! The situation is developing, the times are progressing, the world is changing, and you and I are changing. In today's excellent situation of China's reform and opening up, I can't make a hundred efforts•••••• "Reading this, Lao Wangtou can't read it anymore." He folded the manuscript paper, pressed it under the bowl in front of him, glanced at Section Chief Xu, and continued humorously: "'Porcelain' is really good! My old man knows a few words, and these new words are just awkwardly pronounced. If we continue to read it, we will really become revolutionary old-timers? Forget it, I can say whatever I want!"

"Is it Section Chief Xu's writing? There are two brushes! I said Lao Huo, can you let him go? Let me transfer him to the bureau's propaganda section as section chief, and now I urgently need to show off his talents and publicize reform and opening up with great fanfare! I will say again, Master Wang, why don't you read such beautiful words? Didn't I just say it, what should be what is but what is not, it depends on what you say. Now it's a meeting, so let's get better. It may also be that Director Wu saw that Lao Wangtou put aside the manuscript paper and wanted to deviate from the right path and pull something else, so he interjected and said. Regardless of the political level and ideological consciousness, let's not talk about it, in terms of the performance of a model after it is fixed and used by an executor with a certain status, the executor who uses a certain model can completely form a second instinct similar to natural instinct, which is actually a kind of inertia. He instinctively wants to be in control, and it has nothing to do with other factors.

"Haha. I see, Director Wu, forget about it. Section Chief Xu's verbal language is comparable to that of me, and I can only publicize it in my small place, if I give you publicity in the bureau, we will become a dick bureau!"

Director Wu was blinded by the director's words, he stared at Section Chief Xu suspiciously, and was about to open his mouth to ask. Section Chief Xu was embarrassed to get up, and said to Director Wu with a sneer: "My mouth is not good, my mouth is not good! The verbal language is too rude! But I can't control it, I can't control it!"

"Okay, okay, let's digress again, let's tell Master Wang to finish speaking, let's eat and drink!" Manager Huo saw that the old Wang's head was left to the side, and quickly stopped the conversation here.

The old king was not in a hurry to speak, he put on a bucket of cigarettes, and smoked it. After Manager Huo finished speaking, there was no sound here, and everyone's eyes fell on him. The old king took a deep breath of cigarette and spit it out slowly, and then said after the vicissitudes of life: "How can I say it, in this life, you can't hide from a love word." In my old man's opinion, if a person lives a lifetime, he can hide from the sky and the ground, but he can't hide from himself. When I was young, my old man was eating, drinking, and fooling around. I'm not afraid to tell you directly, I really haven't had true feelings for anyone, and in the end, I haven't escaped the nostalgia of the country. What is the feeling of the countryside? To say it in a small way, we are so reluctant to be in the place where we landed as people! Like thinking about what girls, we have been thinking about it, and we just can't let go of it in our hearts. Speaking to the big place, this is reluctant to come to the place where you came from, so you are directly close to your own country, and you have to keep thinking about it, and you can't let go of it. My old man has contributed to the country, just because he has not escaped the feelings of the country, and he does not need to be high and wear a hat. Then again, thanks to my contribution, I can now get special treatment, and we are even with the country. My old man is satisfied! In the end, I still said that in this life, people can't hide from a love word, and everything else is nonsense!"

Lao Wangtou's words are both formal and informal. The regular one is patriotism and fist feelings, but he doesn't get into the topic from the front, and he talks about a high-sounding topic in a nondescript way. After he finished speaking, we were all stunned for a while, and no one knew whether to applaud him or not. You say that if you applaud, it is obviously a suspicion of blasphemy against noble patriotic feelings, praise, and instigation of improper remarks. If you don't applaud, this old man is indeed reasonable, and it is also impassioned and touching, and it is indeed his heartfelt words.

"Okay! If you are a real person, you will tell the truth! Master Wang is a real person! True feelings, false feelings, big feelings, small feelings, the hardest thing to avoid is love! Everything else is nonsense!" Just as we were all stunned, Changqing slapped the table and shouted.

When he shouted, everyone came to their senses and burst into laughter. Although they are all laughing, they have different moods and different meanings of laughter. There are sloppy laughs, there are mischievous laughs, there are prodigal laughs, and there are inexplicable laughs••••••

"The old man is not colorful, that love!" said Lao Bai with a triumphant smile and a flowery expression. The men present could feel that the color she said was not just the meaning of "color", there was a sound outside the words, and listening to it made your heart tickle.

"The old lady is not in love, what is the color of the old man?" Ma Da Fat smiled and leaned back together, his fat body trembled, and he also echoed the other meaning of "color".

"Down, down, down! You two lesbians, this is a formal occasion! Stop. Lao Li smiled very heartily today, it seems that he has already determined what direction. He suppressed his laughter, pointed at Lao Bai and Ma Da Fat and said a few serious words, then stood up and shook at the old Wang's head, and then said: "I really didn't expect Master Wang to have such a glorious history! I will treat you as a revolutionary old-timer, and it is better to dare to tell the truth than to tell lies! You are always too right, people are just for a love word in this life, and everything else is nonsense! I am also ready to talk about it! Today, we must have a few drinks, I have old wine, waiting for me to get it." Lao Li said something to Lao Wang with great admiration. There are really not many people who can make him admire, and it is even rarer that he can talk to him in such a solemn tone, this is the first time I have seen it.

"I said Lao Li, don't be specialized! I already knew that you had stock, and how many bottles of 'Four Specials' were there?" Lao Li was about to turn around and go to the garage to get wine, when the director waved his hand to stop him and said. The director looked at Lao Huotou and Director Wu, and then said: "I'm not afraid of offending anyone, this beer is indeed like horse urine, and there is nothing to drink! I've heard a long time ago, Lao Li, you have dry goods, and you drank two bottles last time, right? I just wanted to open my mouth, but I'm embarrassed! If you don't dedicate it on this occasion, when will you wait? Farewell to the old revolutionary! Lao Li, you take the initiative to dedicate now, so let's give more dedication? Give us a few veterans a whole bottle, don't deduct it!"

"My old Li only deducted it when it should be! There is still a lot of wine! It's just a pity. Director Li Chong nodded slightly and said noncommittally.

"Is it true?" "'Si Te' old wine!" When Lao Li got up and left to get the wine, Lao Huotou asked the director in a slightly lowered voice. It can be seen that this old man is also a drinker, and when he hears that there is good wine, his eyes also shine.

"Indeed! I'll tell you the truth, the doors and windows of my office were closed last time, and the smell of wine could come in! I was so hungry that I didn't sleep well in the afternoon, if I hadn't made a few glasses that day, I would have smelled the wine a long time ago, and I had to see what kind of wine it was, the whole two glasses! Later, I inquired that Lao Li had taken out the old 'Four Specials', and I didn't know what happy things I encountered, so I drank with a few of them for a long time!" the director said to Lao Huotou with a strong sense of wine. After saying that, he also sniffed it carefully, as if he smelled the aroma of wine again.

"Now I can catch up, but I have to satisfy my hunger! What kind of family planning meeting will be held in the bureau in the afternoon? Do you have to be attended by the top leaders of various units! Do you say that some units still don't pay much attention to the basic national policy?" Lao Huotou said to the director, but his eyes were fixed on the Wu Bureau beside him.

"In a planned economy, everything must be planned, otherwise it will not be chaotic. Wu Ju felt that Manager Huo was a little dissatisfied with this, and immediately answered.

"I think now everyone has their own plans, and they have their own plans! The next cub has to plan, I have never been in favor of it, this thing is too new! I decided to be absent from the meeting, eat and drink here, it's a rare encounter!" Manager Huo turned his head to look at Director Wu and said very strongly. He didn't wait for Director Wu to react, and said to everyone: "I won't mention it in advance! I still have two last questions, let's start eating and drinking after we finish asking!" Speaking of this, he paused, and when everyone calmed down and looked at him, he pointed to the "waist flower" on the table and asked, "Who made this dish?" Or did it come back from the 'Taihe Building'?"

"Report to the manager, it's my Lao Huang's craftsmanship!'Taihelou' is a whole other dish, we don't dare to compare with it, no one can compare to me in this dish!" Lao Huang immediately stood up, made a gesture similar to a military salute, and replied proudly. He also had a rare sense of humor, he seemed to be in a good mood, he felt that his thoughts were not in vain, and what he did was valued by the leadership.

"The master of our cooking here is the master chef in 'Taihe Building'? I used to •••••• in the city," Lao Huotou said here, and suddenly stopped. He must have realized that he had confided in him, and he wanted to show it off, but he found that he had missed the bottom. But fortunately, it seems that Lao Huotou didn't feel a big deal about the reason for his demotion, and he didn't feel much guilt, so he was just a little uncomfortable, and immediately returned to normal, and then said to Lao Huang: "Are you bigger than the master of 'Taihe Building'?

"Report! Manager Huo. We are not as good as them in terms of cooking skills, but in terms of material selection, they are laymen. I also love this dish, and my wife is in the slaughterhouse again. I often ponder this dish, and I know what pig's kidneys are delicious, and what pig's kidneys are delicious, and what pig's are not delicious. Lao Huang stopped here and sold the guanzi.

"It's a new thing, too! It's the first time I've heard of a pig's loin, but I think it's a little strange when you say that. No wonder I sometimes eat this dish when it's tender and fragrant, and sometimes it's almost strong, and I always feel like it's sassy. I thought there were masters and apprentices doing it. According to you, what kind of pig's kidney is the best?" said Old Huo Tou in disbelief. He began to stare at Lao Huang's face, and as he spoke, his eyes fell on his hand. In the blink of an eye, Lao Huotou's still excited face showed some disgust.

"There's nothing new about this, of course, the kidneys on the boars that have been chopped are the best!Haha, I'm haggard, I can't be naughty, I can't use it, it's delicious to raise it with all my strength!" Lao Huang obviously didn't see the change in Manager Huo's face, and said happily.

"Well, it makes some sense. But according to this logic, isn't the sow's kidneys more delicious? Lao Huotou was completely out of interest, but he still responded with a question.

"The sow's waist is not for that, there is no good or bad. Only when there is a use can you distinguish the good from the bad?" said Lao Huang with some strong words. His statement just now seems to have some truth, but this statement about the sow kidneys has no internal relevance and logic. In fact, taste is a very vague feeling, the same person uses the same ingredients, condiments, and cooks the same dish at different times, and you will taste different. There are many reasons for this, don't look at it as a simple action as cooking, but it is a process that cannot be restored exactly the same, because each step of the operation is associated with complex changes. Of course, just for the ingredients selected twice, there are already many unknown changes associated with it!

"Untenable, this argument does not make sense. Old Huo Tou shook his head tastelessly and said. Then he stood up, pushed the three hot dishes in front of him to the middle of the table, and said to everyone enthusiastically: "The food is a good dish, and the taste is authentic! But I can't make it special! Come, come, everyone try it, taste it!"

"Well, the second question, I'll ask it for you, right? I've been trying to figure it out all these years. At this time, Director Wu suddenly said to Lao Huo. It seems that he is already full of certainty, knowing who and what Manager Huo wants to ask in the second question?

"Hahaha. Those who know me, Director Wu, or maybe they have understood it before?" Old Huo Tou sat down steadily, shook the swivel chair back and forth twice, laughed a few times, and then said condescendingly.

"In the past, it was Zhishang, but now, it is Xiaoxia, and there is still a difference. Wu Ju straightened his body, sat upright, shook the swivel chair twice, and said with a popping face. His original intention should have been to correct Manager Huo and remind Lao Huo that the relationship between his superiors and subordinates should be paid attention to from time to time, but his words were weak. In the eyes of outsiders, it is like fighting cattle across the mountain, and not only does it not enhance Director Wu's own majesty, but it shows the strong position of Lao Huotou. It seems that the trend of officialdom in the past has formed a deep-rooted stereotype in Wu Ju, even if Lao Huotou is pushed to the end and becomes a toilet sweeper, he will have lingering palpitations, and it is difficult to change the habit of not daring to commit crimes. This phenomenon is enough to prove that Lao Huotou's residual prestige is undiminished, although there are flaws in the style, but at least the official is very powerful!

Wu Ju and Lao Huo Tou fought a small amount of official power, and the victory and defeat were divided. However, he was already lacking in confidence, and he didn't have the luxury of winning at all, so he didn't feel uncomfortable. Wu Ju laughed lightly at self-deprecation, as if he had just been distracted, and suddenly remembered to ask a second question. He shook his head like a shudder, turned his face to look at Lao Wang, and asked, "I said, Master Wang, you will answer this second question." In the past, you always said that you should keep it absolutely secret and not disclose the slightest information about the person who provided the information, but we understand this, for the sake of safety! Now that all enemy factions have been defeated by us, there should be no security problems, right? You will also go home to retire when you are old, and now I solemnly ask you one last question as the director of the bureau. How did you get your hands on such important and confidential information back then?"

When the old Wang heard Bureau Wu's question, although he forced some smiles on his face to face Director Wu, he couldn't hide the look of embarrassment on his face, and he also rolled his eyes from time to time to scan the "squinting eyes" sitting on his left hand. The performance of "Squinting Eyes" on this day is very abnormal, and it always looks so lonely and lonely. Although she also talks and laughs on the surface, chatting and communicating with Lao Bai and Ma Da Fat, and seems to want to highlight her own performance, but her eyebrows often reveal a sense of unsociable loneliness. This incompatibility and raw separation with us, which emanates from the depths of her heart, becomes stronger and more intense and obvious in the contrast of her forced smile. She also doesn't eat vegetables and has begun to gulp down draught beer. She could probably realize by her sixth sense that the old king was scanning her, and she drank and suddenly laughed. The smile was mysterious and cold, as if it had come out of a quiet dream.

The old Wang Tou was still squeezing a smile to face Director Wu, he must have been moved by the smile of "squinting eyes", and the old face full of horizontal lines and ravines had returned to the irregular hard stripes worn out by time. He said indifferently: "Lao Huo, Director Wu, my old man can only tell you in the end that my information was obtained from an informal occasion. ”。

On this day, those of us who could drink drank a lot of wine, and the first 'four specials', Lao Li took out the four remaining bottles of wine that he had hidden in the garage. Director Wu stopped at the beginning, didn't stay too long, and went back to the bureau to preside over the meeting in advance. Lao Huotou is really a lover, and he said that he was going to be absent from the meeting in the afternoon, but he really didn't leave. He drank it with us, and the beer was as white as it was white. When we drank to a certain point, he told us about the past when he beat devils, and he was colorful. Such a warm and sincere exchange has brought us closer to the leaders to a certain extent, and also made us have a new understanding of Lao Huotou.

Later, "Squinting" drank too much and hummed a little song that we had never heard and could not understand. In the end, she deliberately ran to Aunt Wang's side and cried, crying while saying something in her heart. But we couldn't understand what she said, because the Chinese she spoke was mixed with vague foreign words. As for which dialect it is, because we are all in a state of drunken staring, it is difficult to tell for a while.

The old king had been keeping an eye on her, and he seemed to be able to understand what Squinting was saying, for from the constant change in his eyes, the onlookers could perceive that he had different feelings about what she was saying. Of course, Aunt Wang could see that "squinting" had drunk too much. Although she looked ignorant, she didn't know what she was talking about, but out of enthusiasm, she kept holding her hand and pretending to listen carefully.

The old king listened and listened, with a look of disdain on his face, and suddenly two words came out of his mouth, "grunting", which sounded the same pronunciation as "squinting eyes". The old king said a few words to "squint", looking a little annoyed. He didn't pay any attention to anyone, and slowly stood up a little drunk, turned around, and slowly walked towards the guardhouse while slowly shaking the big pu fan. After a while, the old king turned around the corner and disappeared from our field of vision.
