This time, Qiongdao's business failed to be done, Xie Xing and his family were not discouraged, firstly, they had already been accustomed to failure even if they worked hard, and secondly, no matter what, they could go home, and they had gained a lot this year.

There are not many serious things to talk about, and Jiang Che has little to do with the specific business of the tea house now, so the conversation is over quickly.

During the banquet, Xie Xing carefully talked about wanting to stay in the Shenghai office of Chaliao last year, and asked Jiang Che for his opinion. Jiang Che had actually thought of it a long time ago, so he made a decision on the spot and made a decision.

In this way, listening to Xie Xing and his wife talk about what they have seen and heard in various places this year, this meal lasted almost two hours.

The three of them who had actually eaten for a round here tried their best to pretend to accompany them, but in the end, it was Xie Xing who stopped the chopsticks first after the two of them were full.

"I want to say, I've been running outside, and I haven't known what to bring to your brother. ”

Xie Xing opened his mouth, and his sister-in-law carefully took something from the small bag she was carrying and handed it to him.

"This ......" was a little cramped, Xie Xing held a small red cloth bag with a rope and beads on the table with both hands as he spoke, and explained: "There is a talisman inside." ”

"On the side of Qiongdao, this year it is said that it is preparing to build a Nanshan Temple to pay tribute to the statue of Guanyin on the sea of 100 meters. Your sister-in-law and I happened to meet a monk who came over to help choose a site to pray for blessings, waited for a few days, and asked for two amulets. ”

The sister-in-law nodded on the side, smiled and said, "What do you mean, I want to ask Brother Jiang to take this." What, this charm, my sister-in-law invited it for you...... The other is for the children at home. ”

"This ......"

From the expressions of Xie Xing and his wife, Jiang Che can guess that this talisman is not easy to please, and it is also very precious in the eyes of pious people.

I just wanted to open my mouth and continue......

"Brother, take it. The couple on the other side looked the same, leaned forward, looked earnest, and said in unison.

"Then you can take it, Brother Xie and his sister-in-law are all in their hearts. ”

Zheng Xinfeng, who had met Xie Xing in Shenghai, but was not very familiar with him, also said a word on the side, and turned his head to look at Jiang Che after speaking.

How can I do Lao Jiang's role as a man? I never see how fiercely he is to be kind to people, but he is often pitted and black, but he can always warm people's hearts, and finally return to their hearts.

county magistrates, bandits, gangsters...... Everybody......

As a person who rarely feels emotional, Zheng Xinfeng actually occasionally thinks: This person turned out to be my best brother...... Lao Tzu must have had a miserable life in his last life, but he is a very good person, that is, when a beggar divides half a piece of bread, so he has accumulated virtue.

Whether Jiang Che will lead the thunder or not, Secretary Zheng doesn't think about it now, but he thinks that this guy's "building a foundation" should be true.

"Then thank you, brother, thank you, sister-in-law. ”

Jiang Che put away the talisman and put it in his chest pocket. Xie Xing and his wife both looked at it, and now on their dark faces, which had a lot of wrinkles, a bright smile suddenly bloomed from the bottom of their hearts.

"Peace and sound. Sister-in-law said.

"Hmm. Jiang Che nodded vigorously.

Xie Xing poured the wine. Today, because the couple is going to take a plane in a while, Jiang Che means not to drink, and will stay until he returns to Shenghai and then go to the house to disturb.

But this cup, Xie Xing poured, he poured it for everyone on the table.

When the cup was raised, the picture flashed in Xie Xing's mind, it was still at the beginning of the year, when the train station was reunited, Jiang Che was a guest in the cracked wall hut he and his wife rented......

Xie Xing still remembers that the appetizer that day was noodles.

At that time, he was depressed, without a house and a job, with 90,000 loan sharks on his back selling twist flowers and shortbread, and he was almost nowhere to go.

It's like two nodes, from seeing Jiang Che at that time and embarking on the trip, to seeing Jiang Che again today, and about to go home...... This middle line, the course of more than ten months, and what it has changed, so that the couple has too many unspeakable things in their hearts.

"Let's have a drink. Xie Xing had a sour nose when he spoke, and he couldn't tell if it was because Jiang Che stretched out his hand when he was the most difficult, or because of his feelings about the ups and downs of his life, maybe both.

He blew hard, and he tried to hold on.

"Okay, together. Jiang Che said.

The cups were raised.

"Thank you. Xie Xing and his wife said in unison again.

"Where, Brother Xie has worked hard this year, and my sister-in-law has also worked hard. ”

After touching the glasses respectively, Jiang Che raised his head and dried the wine, as did Zheng Xinfeng and Chen Youzhu on the side.

When he put down the glass, he saw that the couple on the other side of the table actually looked at each other and touched each other's glasses before they raised their heads together and drained the wine.

At this point, they also said something to each other in their hearts.

“……”

These tens of millions of miles together, honed out by the days, inadvertent love, the details have long been unaware of the parties, but the hearts of the other three present are both warm and sour.

Chen Youzhu thought about people.

Jiang Che too.

Zheng Xinfeng: "......"

…………

After dinner, Xie Xing and his wife left and returned to Shenghai, where they would stay for most of the next year to help take care of the Shenghai office in Chaliao.

They said that they were going to buy the old house back first, and then help prepare the Shenghai office.

Jiang Che and the three of them came out after sending the plane.

"You Zhi wants to go to Hong Kong City this year, right?" Jiang Che understands that whether it is Chen Youzhu or Liu Suru, they are people who have not had a reunion year for a long time, and they have been lonely for too long.

Slightly embarrassed, Chen Youzhu nodded.

"Then you can go over when you're done. Jiang Che turned his head and asked Zheng Xinfeng again, saying, "What about you?"

"I'm sure I'll stay in the deep city. Zheng Xinfeng gestured and said: "I have a lot of things in this factory, I am very busy, and my home is far away, so I can't go back this year." ”

Jiang Che nodded, and asked again, "Why don't you just consider taking your parents out?"

Zheng Xinfeng shook his head, "I mentioned that they don't want to come out, so they want to stay in the village." But in fact, it's easy to understand, now everyone in the village knows that I am out, my parents, live in the only small western-style building in the village, and when they are free, they are strolling, and there is light on their faces. ”

"That's right. ”

"It's not, life is not burdensome, they just grow some vegetables, and then raise pigs, rabbits and dogs, it's not too comfortable. Don't you know, now those carts selling shrimp skin, hairtail, and pork will come to my door every time they pass by...... In the eyes of my parents, there is no better day. ”

"That's good. ”

Zheng Xinfeng and Chen Youzhi left.

Jiang Che made a phone call while waiting for the bus on the side of the road.

"Sister Chu...... Well, everything is smooth here, so I want to tell you about it. Although I know that you must have information on your side. ”

"It's good that you know. Chu Lianyi said with a smile on the other end of the phone: "Sandun didn't make it clear, I asked him, and he said that Brother Che seemed to be lying again." Later, when someone told me, I laughed badly, I really wished I was there, watching how you coaxed more than 200 people to plant trees. ”

"Looks like I'm fooling around. She added, laughing.

"That's not it, that's it, what's going on over there?"

"It's good, I was just about to tell you, our old yard has been brought back, just the old courtyard in the alley where I lived when I was a child. When you come to Yanjing one day, I'll take you to see it. ”

"Good. That's good. Jiang Che heard Chu Lianyi's meaning, and it seemed that he would have to stay there for a long time.

"Xiao Che. ”

"Huh?"

"Auntie, they remembered that I was here for the New Year, and then it happened that my parents had some things to deal with yet. Chu Lianyi said: "It may take me a long time to come back." ”

"Well, that's fine, but if you want something, you'll have to tell me. I'm so good, you can see it. ”

“…… yes, I saw it. Chu Lianyi smiled and hesitated and said, "But it's really okay, I've been sorting out some of my parents' papers and lesson plans recently." My aunts and uncles wanted to say that they would publish it, and I thought I should do something for my parents. ”

"That's supposed to be, that's a good thing. ”
