The times are developing, society is progressing, and many things are no longer pure.

Li Jiaming and Li Xinhua held a thank-you banquet in Chongxiang, inviting teachers from primary schools and junior high schools, and they were quite grateful. The former teachers and former students had a lively meal, and Li Jiaming and Li Xinhua, two students who had just been admitted to the exam, plus the four brothers Li Jiade, toasted for various reasons, and drunk Teacher Wang and Teacher Zhang.

But when you go to the county seat to feast on the teachers in the county, it will have a strong utilitarian color, not to mention that Secretary Zeng and County Magistrate Zhong sent red envelopes, and the single neighbors and business partners are enough to sit at forty or fifty tables.

Others hold a thank-you banquet and invite the teacher in person, and they don't need to post it, but those leaders don't post either? People send gifts to the door, are you embarrassed not to send invitations to others? If you send an invitation to the leader, how can you not send a formal invitation to the teacher? The leaders want to come to the party, and they have to arrange the banquet on Saturday and Sunday, alas, the leaders who can't afford to offend.

The invitations of leaders, neighbors, and business partners were written by the uncle who wrote beautifully, and the teachers were written by Li Jiaming's sister and brother. But when the two sisters and brothers were excited to list the list of teachers in the county one by one, they ran into Liu Benqiu and Teacher Zhong, who couldn't get around.

Li Jiaming is special than Li Xinhua, he has been self-taught since the fourth grade of primary school, and even two years of high school are about the same. The ones who really instructed him were the fourth brother's monster and the math teacher in the county, Mr. Wen, Liu Benqiu and Mr. Zhong were nominally his teachers, but they didn't give any guidance in their studies.

Li Xinhua is different, her English is so good, it is from the second year of junior high school, Teacher Zhong and Liu Shasha taught and trained. In this college entrance examination, she scored a full score of 150 in English and was admitted to the School of Foreign Languages of Peking University.

But this matter is also troublesome, she went to invite, this is to make her younger brother unable to come to the stage, not to go, and it is not polite, and so many teachers have been invited, but not to invite Teacher Zhong, which makes Teacher Zhong's face go where to take a step back, even if the younger brother does not mind. If she invites her, it will be very embarrassing for people to come, and if she doesn't come, it will make people say that she has a small belly and chicken intestines.

Li Chuanjian, who was writing an invitation to the red envelope list of county leaders next to him, saw that his niece and nephew were stuck as he thought, put down his pen and hesitated: "Jiaming, you gave Chen Hesheng a cigarette a few days ago, do you know how many people say that you are generous?"

This matter is really troublesome, Li Jiaming scratched his scalp in embarrassment. Li Chuanjian, who is quite a city government, saw that his nephew did not directly refuse, and said euphemistically: "Jiaming, Liu Benqiu is doing things too much, but behind him are hundreds of families in the middle of the night, and there are always some people who are related to us. ”

The uncle's words were very tactful, but Li Jiaming understood what he meant, and his sister and brother were about to leave this mountain. In the future, the younger siblings will also leave this mountain, but their uncles will retire here.

Last time, he suffered a loss, and he didn't take face, and some things can be forgotten. In the past year, because people are not allowed to grow shiitake mushrooms in the middle of the night, how many people have interceded? Even Grandma has people to intercede, so how can they not come to their father and uncle? It's just that the uncle and father don't want to delay their own study, so they don't tell themselves.

Alas, it's hard to be a man, especially in my hometown. The circle is so big, there are so many people, everything has to be taken into account, and the sophistication of human feelings is like a net, and no one can escape.

It's difficult, Li Jiaming is unwilling, but he is helpless.

Seeing that his nephew was loose, Li Chuanjian glanced at his second brother, and Li Chuanmin, who had received Liu Benqiu's favor, also persuaded: "Mingya, be fair." Yanagimoto can't help you, but he also helped you.

In the past, you fought with Chen Hesheng and went to the police station, if he didn't come forward, Gao Bin would really be so easy to let go? I'm afraid that if we go in, we will only have to redeem you with money, and we have to reason with the Chen family to settle the matter.

And the matter of Chongxiang Primary School, if he didn't pull it, our 30% of the money would have been so smooth? Without those tens of thousands of yuan, we could afford to build a house, and later we could afford to open a decoration shop? Taiping took us 1,000 yuan, and Teacher Liu only accepted two 'white sand' cigarettes from us. ”

Also, to be fair, kindness is grace, hatred is hatred, one yard is one yard. He and Liu Benqiu were mixed with grievances and hatreds, but the second uncle and third sister had no grudge against him, but inherited the favor of their couple. In the past, the second uncle and Liu Benqiu were friends, and the other party did not take any shelf, even when he became the director of the Forestry Bureau and the deputy county magistrate of the Standing Committee, they would still smoke a cigarette and chat a few words together.

Come on, anyway, Peking University was admitted, and the oath made in front of my mother's grave was fulfilled, and yes yes and little sister also laughed like Maitreya Buddha every day, so I followed the second uncle's wishes. The two uncles and nephews, the two uncles all regard themselves as their own cubs, what can their grievances be worth?

"Okay, I'll go and please, it's all right?"

The eldest uncle and the second uncle were satisfied, and Li Jiaming's father, who was happy, was not dissatisfied, and was still calling according to the address book to invite someone to drink the wine of going to school. Tigers fight with tigers, no matter whether they win or lose, they don't lose face, and now that Ming Yan has soared into the sky, is it interesting to compete with others? If you win, you have to step on others a few times, that's the style of gangsters, and decent people must be decent!

After writing the invitation according to the list of invitations to be sent, Li Jiaming, who was accustomed to being careful, thought for a moment and hurriedly wrote an invitation to Vice Chairman Hu of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), who had returned to his hometown to visit relatives. When I was in elementary school, I came to Tonggu to participate in competitions and had two meals at his house. What's more, he is still Mr. Wang's mentor, and if he doesn't come to give red envelopes and invest in potential stocks, that is people's self-esteem, but he can't be rude as a junior. Besides, so many county leaders came to cheer, and only when the old man came forward could he not only respect the teacher but also respect the leader.

After writing the invitation to Master Hu, Li Jiaming hesitated for a while, but still wrote another invitation to Song Xiangsheng. If you don't invite the principal of the county school, people will certainly lose face, and you will not be able to get any advantage yourself.

The two brothers took Li Jiaming's two sisters and brothers to the county to send invitations to the teacher first. Starting from the homeroom teacher of the two, all the way to the subject teacher, and finally arrived at Song Xiangsheng's house, the dignified county magistrate and principal seemed to be relieved.

That's right, it's really relieved, last year Song Xiaojun let the public security catch him, he thought it was his son who was not doing more, but when he fished people out, he knew that someone pointed out that the deer was a horse and forcibly arrested people.

Who would do such a thing? Who else could there be besides Li Jiaming in front of him?

At the beginning, Song Xiangsheng was furious, vowing to make Li Jiaming look good. But he thought that in less than a month, even the high-ranking and powerful Liuxian County was planted, and he was really afraid. The people don't fight with the officials, the poor don't fight with the rich, and people can even win a dignified Standing Committee deputy county magistrate, and they can't play with themselves as a district principal?

After saying the kind words and leaving the invitation, the four of them came out of the courtyard, and Li Xinhua, who was lagging behind, grabbed his younger brother and whispered: "Jiaming, Principal Song seems to be very afraid of you?"

Of course, I'm afraid, the herds of hyenas are so hungry that they dare to bare their teeth in front of the tigers, and it's too late to run alone, even if they are looking at it?

When the four of them came to the Forestry Bureau, Li Jiaming didn't want his father to go, so he stayed behind and whispered to him: "yes, why don't you go?"

Li Chuanlin, who is on the rise, wants to see the embarrassment of the enemy!

"yes, we have had a knot with him, but the second uncle has not, and the third sister has not. ”

Oh, too, Li Chuanlin looked at the second brother and third niece in front of him, so he had to give up, but took a 'Great China' cigarette from the small shop next to him and handed it over.

"Be polite, don't you know?"

Alas, my previous tuberculosis was passed on to my grandmother from generation to generation, and the character of not being able to suffer losses must have been inherited from my father. In the past, he was poor and unwilling, so he wilted like a grass, but now that his career is successful, he can't eat any more dark losses.
