429, Ye Qing had already brought water to the ward, and Gu Xiaoming was the first person to come to the hospital under Ye Qing's notice. Sitting at the head of Da Ben's bed, he said while peeling apples for Da Ben: "Da Ben, you have frightened me, I thought something was wrong with you? As soon as Ye Qing said it, I hurried over, Tao Zi also knew, he would come over in a while, I was afraid that the adults in your family would be worried, so I didn't tell them, anyway, you don't matter, so I won't tell them first.

An Da Ben looked at Xiao Ming, who was peeling apples for him, and saw Ye Qing who was busy on the side, and said, "You two are really compatible, why can't you come together?" Ye Qing heard Da Ben say this, and hurriedly said: "What is the match, I can't match him in my life, you see him like that, it's not the kind I like." ”

Xiao Ming said: "Hey, hey, hey, Qing, if you say this, I'm not happy, I've been a brother for so many years, I know you like to be stupid, anyone with a discerning eye can see it, you don't want to be so direct, as if I don't want it, if it's a woman, what kind of no, in a word, shouting on a team." ”

430, Ye Qing hurriedly said to Xiao Ming: "Can you, can you not do it, a team? What should you do? I like Big Stupid Brother What's wrong, Big Stupid is more solid than you, it will hurt people, you have been bullying me since I was a child, I won't be good with you." ”

Xiao Ming hurriedly said: "You can be good with whoever you like, who is strange?"

Ye Qing hurriedly said coquettishly to An Da Ben: "Brother Da Ben, you see, he is bullying me and bullying me again. ”

An Daben smiled. Laugh so freely and naturally. "Green, Ming. It's good to have you, to have a sister like you in this life, and a friend like Ming, I will die without shock. ”

Ye Qing hurriedly covered it with his hand: "You are not allowed to say this, you must be fine." ”

Xiao Ming looked disgusted again: "Look, look, the flesh is numb, if you say you die, you will die." ”

Ye Qing hurriedly grabbed the pillow on the hospital bed next to him and threw it at Xiao Ming.

At this time, Tao Zi carried two large bags of food at the door of the ward, and watched Ye Qing smash Xiao Ming with a pillow.

431, "Qing, your stupid brother is still sick, you will open a full martial arts in the ward, like what are you talking about?" Tao Zi said seriously.

Ye Qing saw Taozi coming, and hurriedly said, "Brother, you drive Xiao Ming out, you see that he didn't listen to a word." Tao Zi said: "Hasn't Xiao Ming always been like this? Just kidding, you can't take it seriously, you just need to be stupid." ”

Tao Zi came over and put two bags of things on the table, then came over and patted Gu Xiaoming on the shoulder, and said, "You are not allowed to say these useless words again next time, don't say it." ”

Gu Xiaoming nodded hurriedly at Taozi. Tao Zi looked at An Daben for a moment, then patted Gu Xiaoming's shoulder with a solemn face, and said, "Xiao Ming, you come, I have something to tell you." ”

After speaking, he walked out of the ward, and Xiao Ming didn't know what was going on, and deliberately made a face with Ye Qing and Da Ben, and followed Tao Zi out.

An Daben thinks that today's pottery is very strange, and under normal circumstances, the pottery is also very deep, but today is extraordinarily a little. There are always bad things happening in Big Stupid's mind, but he doesn't know what the bad things are.

432. Outside the door, in the stairwell, Tao Zi gave Xiao Ming a lit cigarette.

"Taozi, what's wrong with you today?Why are you so strange?What's going on?" Gu Xiaoming looked at Taozi's abnormal performance today and felt very strange.

Tao Zi took a sharp puff of cigarette, and then asked Xiao Ming, "Xiao Ming, are you afraid of death?"

Xiao Ming has always been open-mouthed among the few of them, and he saw Tao Zi asking him such a question. said directly: "What are you afraid of, isn't it just a matter of breath," Xiao Ming said very lightly,

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid of death, because I still have people to worry about, a sister, and you and Da Ben. Tao Zi said about death.

"Brother, aren't you, we just talked about it casually, you don't have to make such a fuss, there's no need, I know, I'll talk less about death in the future." I also know it's not good, I'm just used to it. Xiao Ming thought that Tao Zi was talking to him just now.

"Xiao Ming, what if someone else dies?" Tao Zi tried step by step.

433. "I will feel sorry for him, I will pray for him." I'll do everything I can. But first of all, I will tell him, be strong," Gu Xiaoming was not as playful and angry as he had just spoken, he thought about it and replied to Tao Zi.

"If, if... Tao Zi felt that the next words were more difficult to say, and he said a few sentences in a row, but he couldn't go on with the next sentence.

"Brother Tao Zi, just say what you have to say, I feel that you have something to say to me, who is with whom the two of us have been friends for so many years. Gu Xiaoming had clearly felt that Tao Zi had something to say, but he couldn't open his mouth.

"Xiao Ming, you have to hold on, when I just went to Da Ben's house, I saw an ambulance at the door, I saw your mother being carried into the ambulance, and I saw blood all over the ground, I was startled, on the stretcher I was carrying, I also saw your mother's mouth full of blood, I heard them say that your mother was sent to the third hospital, I got the news and rushed here, you go quickly, I finished reading Da Ben, and I rushed over immediately.

434. At this time, Xiao Ming looked at Tao Zi's eyes, without saying a word, her mother was fine when she just came out of the house, but in the morning, her mother coughed for a while, and he thought that his mother was just a simple cough, and he could get better by taking some cold medicine. He remembered again that during this time, her mother always said that she was very tired, and she couldn't straighten her waist when she was tired, so it was also related to this. Mom is sick, my mother, who has always been strong and healthy for the family's vegetables, rice, oil and salt, is sick, I can't think of it at all, but it really happened at this moment, what should he do, he was blindsided all of a sudden.

Tao Zi was afraid that he wouldn't be really stupid by this, so he slapped Gu Xiaoming's chest. Gu Xiaoming felt a pain that brought him back to consciousness. With tears in his eyes, he didn't say another word to Taozi, and hurriedly ran down the stairs.

Tears rolled into his eyes, and he didn't know what was going on. The changes in the home in the past few days, the ups and downs are too unpredictable.

The previous aunt Cheng Yuwei was taken away by the public security organs, he was not at home that day, and his father and mother didn't tell him much about her, but during that time, his mother Yufen had been walking around outside, as if it was all for the aunt's affairs, and after a few days, she lost a lot of weight, and she was very tired, which is probably the bane of the whole time.

435. Later, my father was promoted again, and suddenly became the deputy director of their hub center, which Yufen never expected, this was more or less the greatest comfort to her after the Yuwei incident, but this comfort seemed to be too big, and she couldn't accept it for a while. The resentment accumulated over many years has been resolved once it is somewhat unadaptable, for Gu Jianguo, it is like this, especially for Cheng Yufen.

Seeing that the colleagues who were with Gu Jianguo at that time all became the leaders of the unit, only this Gu Jianguo will always be on the front line, especially after he was blind in one eye, he also worked on the front line for a period of time, although he was no longer on the front line to deliver letters and newspapers, and worked in the factory, or the front line, or the bottom, how could this not make Yu Fen feel melancholy?

That day, Gu Jianguo returned home with the letter of appointment given to him by the unit, and handed the letter of appointment to Yufen very solemnly, and Yufen was still joking with him: "Old Gu, your unit agrees that you will retire early?"

436, Gu Jianguo pointed to the rolled piece of paper with his finger. Yufen looked at the paper, guessing what it was? As she spoke, she opened it, and when she finished reading the lines of text, she burst into tears, as if her years of grievances had been shamed, the tears kept flowing, she kept reading the words on it, Gu Jianguo couldn't remember how many times Yufen had read it, three times, or five times. Yufen later said that she wished to keep reading, and that the text of the letter of appointment was better than the best articles she had read. That night, it was the first time Yufen drank with Jianguo, she picked up a wine glass and said that she wanted to celebrate with Gu Jianguo.

Gu Jianguo and Cheng Yufen decided when they were drinking that he was going to invite the people in their factory to have a meal, and she wanted to invite them to a meal with neighbors they didn't know, and she wanted to tell them that Gu Jianguo was not wrong, she was an honest person, so she should treat him fairly, although this treatment came later, but she still came.

It seemed that just three days later, they informed some old and new colleagues who knew them well, a total of 285 people. They chose a hotel called Hongyun Hotel to hold this banquet, why choose this, because its name is auspicious, Hongyun head, although in Wuxi for just ten years, but won the hearts of the people, generally married, promoted, 100-day banquet, longevity wine, everyone likes to choose this hotel.

437. The steamed buns made by their family have also become a famous dish in Wuxi City. In Wuxi, if you don't know the 'dog ignore' buns, it's forgivable, but if you haven't heard and tasted the 'lucky buns', it's your fault. To what extent is the big bag of good luck, basically you can see a long queue of them selling kiosks during working hours, everyone is ten, twenty, fifty one to buy, you say how delicious it is, only Wuxi people themselves know, they love that taste, when you eat this taste, you will feel that there is no second house in the world to make such a bun. Later, there were a lot of "dragon and phoenix big bags" and "canal big bags" are different from this "lucky big bag", not just a street, of course, no one knows later because of the big bun made the big hotel, or the big hotel created the bun.

Later, Hongyun Hotel did not renew the lease because of the expiration of the lease and other reasons, and the brand for more than ten years said that it would not be wanted, which attracted a big discussion in Wuxi City, and also made suggestions for how to continue the beloved buns. Later, the hotel was gone, but the specialty stores of "Hongyun Dabao" opened one by one, all over Wuxi City, and finally retained the deliciousness of that bite.

438, Gu Jianguo's banquet was organized by Cheng Yufen. Jianguo still goes to his own class every day, although he has been promoted to deputy director, but he knows his ability and knows what he should do. Still in his own logistics section, the deputy director's office in the management office building in the hub center has been sorted out for him, and he has allowed it to be left empty.

Yao Balin asked Gu Jianguo several times to move to the office of the deputy director quickly, but Gu Jianguo said that let him stay in the post-security department, he liked the working atmosphere there, and said several times that Yao Balin also saw his thoughts, so he went with him.

Gu Meili saw that her mother and father were very happy about this matter, so she directly took out 50,000 yuan, saying that she would pay for the expenses this time, Gu Jianguo and Cheng Yufen said that they had it, so she didn't have to worry about it. Gu Meili said: "The money will be kept for Gu Xiaoming's marriage in the future, this time the money will come out." Under Gu Meimei's insistence, Gu Jianguo and Cheng Yufen accepted the money, but from the bottom of their hearts, they still pity this well-behaved daughter, if she hadn't taken a wrong step back then, she should have a beautiful marriage, a husband who loves her, and a lovely child, but now she has nothing, she only uses work as sustenance.

439. The banquet began punctually at six o'clock that evening. Basically all the people invited were present, Gu Jianguo held thirty tables, and the scene was as grand as any wedding banquet. Most of the old leaders of the year also participated, and his colleagues all came to participate in this different dinner, saying that it was a promotion banquet, but it was a banquet to prove Gu Jianguo's shame.

Gu Jianguo did not accept any gifts from others, only said that it was a small gathering of colleagues. That was the most decent time Gu Jianguo dressed, Gu Meili spent tens of thousands of yuan to give him a suit, that day Cheng Yufen also wore his best clothes, the family was dazzling, that day was also Gu Xiaoming's happiest day, Xiao Ming and Da Ben and Tao Zi and Da Ben's parents and Tianbao Ye sat next to the main table, and the people sitting at the main table were now the leaders of their unit, Yao Balin and others. Ye Qing didn't come, she couldn't leave the unit, she had her patients to take care of.

The banquet hall was full of joy, as if nothing had happened before, and those colleagues who had strictly followed the opinions of the higher authorities and suppressed Gu Jianguo forever were now talking and laughing in this world.

440. At the beginning of the banquet, Yao Balin spoke, first congratulating Gu Jianguo on his promotion to the post of deputy director, and also saying that Gu Jianguo was diligent and diligent, never cared about gains and losses, and did his own work well, etc. There are also special references to old things from the past, and so on.

followed by Gu Jianguo coming to power. Thank you to all the friends and family who are here today for being able to come to our banquet. He also talked about the fear of this promotion, and he was afraid that he would not be able to do it. But he will definitely do a good job in his post, and he will not be in vain for the hard work of the leader.

The banquet was very successful, and everyone was very happy, eating happily, chatting happily, and there was no need to pay red envelopes. The happiest is Cheng Yufen, looking at the former colleagues and leaders one by one, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, she seemed to prove something. In fact, you don't need to prove it or not, everything has already been blown away by the wind, there is no shadow of it, and if you reopen that scar today, no one will sympathize with you, nor will anyone raise their arms and shout for you, and get the last bit of pitiful self-esteem for you. Human nature is inseparable from good and evil, and it is formed in different historical periods and social environments.

441. In the general environment, you are different from ordinary people, you are a strange person, a bad person, a person who is to be knocked down, and a person who is trampled on three feet, so more people tend to follow and conform to the herd, what you say is right is right, marginalize yourself, externalize, and become a person watching the play, so there are only him and her on the stage, and their life and death have little to do with you. Gu Jianguo lived in such an environment at that time, and he was still living in such an environment at this time, with a lot of audiences, but there were very few people who could help you.

In fact, in the end, Gu Jianguo and Cheng Yufen still didn't see through it, and they didn't see through it. But if you spend money happily, it's worth it, whether it's right or wrong.

On the day of the banquet, their family of four was relaxed. Gu Meili was not in a hurry to go back, and Gu Xiaoming was not in a hurry to go back, they all accompanied Gu Jianguo and Cheng Yufen to go shopping on the road, just like when they were young. When they were children, they used to walk the road like this, but since Meili grew up, they haven't walked the road without burden for more than ten years. Gu Meili held Cheng Yufen's arm, Gu Jianguo walked majestically and proudly in the front, and Gu Xiaoming walked next to the mother and daughter.

This is originally an ordinary family, so ordinary that it is like a small grain of dust in the universe.
