Chapter 52: Jianghu Drinking Party
In the last life, I drank with Brother Lei, and Brother Lei invited him. At that time, Ye Luwei was really seventeen years old, because he carefully recorded the attendance of young workers, many young workers were deducted from their bonuses that month, and on the day of payroll, they were beaten by more than ten or twenty young workers in public.
For 17-year-old Ye Luwei, this is of course a "great shame in his life", and he vowed to defend his dignity with his life. Because he chased and killed him with weapons according to the list for several days in a row and didn't let go, and even put down one at the door of the security department of a branch office, the young workers who participated in the beating of Ye Luwei were finally afraid, and knew that they had provoked the unprovoked people, so they paid for a big table and asked Brother Lei to come forward to make peace.
Ye Luwei, whose psychological age has been greatly improved in this life, will certainly not have to carry double knives again to drink Brother Lei's wine with the tragedy of going to the Hongmen banquet.
At nearly six o'clock in the evening, Ye Luwei went to the commissary to buy two bottles of Luzhou Erqu and a few packets of ripe peanuts, and went to the youth dormitory where Lei Ge was located. In the previous life, it was also the main entertainment location for Ye Luwei, learning to play various cards, learn guitar, learn erhu, and learn to dance cramp dance...... In short, the young workers at this time have nothing to do, only play these.
At that time, there was no cleaner in the Zhongwan Bureau, and all the sanitation had to be cleaned by yourself. The two rows of dormitories opposite each other are not high-end "residences", with an average of four people living in one room, and you can imagine the superficial meaning of the words "dirty, messy, and smelly", which is enough to reproduce in your mind what the beautiful environment of the dormitories is like.
Brother Lei occupies a dormitory alone, and today may be because he wants to invite "important guests", so some of his younger brothers picked up a few baskets of empty wine bottles in the room and carried them out, leaving only a thick layer of cigarette butts, which is tiled as a soft carpet, if you don't open your eyes and look at it, the feeling of stepping on it is really similar to the foot feeling of a five-star hotel. Because the materials are all the same, the carpets and cigarette butts of the five-star hotels seem to be the same family of chemical materials.
Brother Lei was very enthusiastic today, watching Ye Luwei walk to the door, he actually stood up and took a few steps out to greet him, Ye Luwei was very surprised, do these boys have any difficulties related to the personnel department, and they need to ask for the "senior brother in charge"? Otherwise, Brother Lei has always been stable, and the leader of the head office may not be able to let him take a few steps.
Today's dinner seems to be a little high, and several of the main brothers of the general labor class are not qualified to go to the table, so they went to open another table next door.
On Brother Lei's table, in addition to Ye Luwei, there is also Tang Qijun, the deputy squad leader of the driller class, who has the same background as Brother Lei, but people rely on labor to eat, because they also have a high prestige among young workers, so there is one more deputy squad leader in the driller class. Tang Qijun's specialty is the use of Yt28 air leg rock drill (air leg wind drill), he can do without air legs, with personal labor with his hands and shoulders to carry the rock drill, one breath to punch a three-meter-deep horizontal hole, the speed is as fast as using air legs. This hand is unrivaled among the young workers, including some who think that their strength exceeds that of Tang Qijun, and they are not good at it. There is a good thing to hold on and barely make an oblique hole, and the whole body will be so sore because of the vibration that I can't hold chopsticks for a few days.
The other one is a "disabled person", the canteen cook "Lao Hei", Lao Hei's name is not very clear, I have to go through the file, some less formal company records show the name, either Lao Hei or, such as the list of labor insurance manuals or something, this is how it is written. Lao Hei was also born as a young man, and he turned out to be a twesome gunner, because he was lazy once, and he was still wiring in the blasting area, so he asked others to help connect the main detonation line, and the result was a bang...... Missing two front teeth, several broken ribs and a thigh bone, Lao Hei survived to become an honorable canteen cook.
These three people have a common characteristic, that is, for various reasons, they are thirty-five, and there is no one to make up for their clothes - they don't have a wife.
After Ye Luwei sat down, he couldn't help muttering in his heart, how many of your uncles are in this frame, do you want my brother to introduce you to unmarried young women? Seventeen-year-old matchmaker? Even if my brother has the heart to help, then the woman is willing to believe it, right? Besides, with my brother's handsome and young image, it is estimated that most young women will not be able to turn your handsome goods, right?
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Ye Luwei began to drink slowly following Brother Lei's rhythm. Wine is a good thing, for example, now, four men sit at a huge table, if there is no wine, the picture is too beautiful to imagine. With wine, a qiē is so harmonious and harmonious.
After three rounds of wine, the food is over...... Three flavors? Uncle Ni's, after two planes, Brother Lei's dishes are still the same three old articles: back to the pot meat to cook fish, back to the pot meat to cook vegetables, back to the pot meat to cook back to the pot meat.
Ye Luwei saw that the three dishes were served, and there was no younger brother to serve other follow-up suits, and he also felt sorry for Brother Lei. If you were born ten or twenty years later, the hooligan leaders at that time would go out with Mercedes-Benz, eat at four-star or above, and the young ladies who soaked were all "public figures". Not to mention anything else, with Brother Lei's means and appeal, following a developer to do some demolition or something, it has already been launched. Bad luck, really bad luck.
Sure enough, after Brother Lei saw that Ye Luwei had drunk three cups, he resolutely stopped drinking white ones, and it was not easy to persuade him again, so the topic gradually shifted to the topic.
Among the three, Brother Lei is a face-saving and pompous person, and he has a good understanding of the leaders of the head office, and he talks a lot of nonsense in a clear manner. Tang Qijun is a mute model like a black thug, only drinking and eating meat throughout the whole process, without saying a word.
Lao Hei was originally a flamboyant second goods, but he didn't dare to speak in front of the two young workers.
Ye Luwei listened to Lei Ge Yunshan Fog Cover for a long time, and finally heard something. It turned out that Santana, who drove himself, became the last straw that crushed this gang of cowards. It turned out that people were still planning to teach themselves a lesson, because after the reform and opening up, the ideological concept changed, and everyone decided to give wealth due respect, so they politely invited Boss Ye to have a meal and a drink. As the saying goes, drink a glass of liquor and make friends.
The purpose of the three of them inviting Ye Luwei is very embarrassing to the hooligans of later generations, and they actually asked Ye Luwei to let go of the selected personnel and give everyone a way to live.
What to choose? Of course, it's to choose a wife.
Ye Luwei ate the bowl (Huang Qingju) and dominated the pot (Hu Weiwei), and served the top two unmarried female workers in a pot, and the other young male workers were already very dissatisfied.
Now Ye Luwei has not announced who he will choose, so that some other young female workers who think they are extraordinary will have more imagination, dressing up every day, dreaming of one day Ye Luwei will fall in love with his dish? With this imagination, even if the pursuit of other young workers has encountered the most troublesome problems, this year's batch of unmarried female young workers are reluctant to accept the pursuit of others, which makes Brother Lei, who is the boss of young workers, very depressed.
Ye Luwei was only tall and handsome and the "senior brother in charge" before, and the crushing situation was not very obvious. This suddenly drove a new Santana to work on the construction site, which was too insulting.
At this time, among the young workers, there may not be one among the millions of people who dare to imagine that they will have such a configuration as a "private car", including the proud college students, at most, they only dare to imagine being promoted to a leader and enjoying the high-end car configured by the company. With a salary of less than 100 yuan a month and less than 200 yuan, and he still has to support his family, he has received less than 100,000 yuan in his life, how can he imagine a private car of more than 200,000 yuan.
So after Brother Lei heard the report of the younger brother who went to try the car, he changed his mind and decided to invite Boss Ye to have a drink and talk about it. Huang Qingju is a college student, not something that these young workers can worry about, but Hu Weiwei is just an ordinary electrician, as if it was originally allocated to ordinary young workers.
When Ye Luwei heard this, he really couldn't laugh or cry. Inadvertently, does my brother really have such a big appeal? This year, these young female workers don't talk about love, waiting for their brother to "choose a concubine"? Ouch, this ...... Not quite right? Uh, brother admitted magnificently, it's actually pretty good, and it's a cool feeling.
In his previous life, Ye Luwei was a little kid, and he often dared to go to the women's institute to steal their tapes and listen to them. The female workers themselves will only pretend to scream twice and will not take it seriously. If other young workers dare to go to the women's work institute, it will be a weasel to enter the chicken coop, and after a burst of shouting and killing, the chickens and dogs will definitely be taken to the security department to do a good job of ideological education.
In this life, Ye Luwei has never been to a women's institute, with the intellectual and huge Huang Qingju and the rational and tall Hu Weiwei company, Ye Luwei almost forgot that there is such a thing as a women's institute.
Carefully recalled this year's batch of female workers, and found that there are still several of them with quite good levels, one of them is named Ni Chunhong, who first married a handsome ordinary young worker, gave birth to a daughter a year later, and divorced after two or three years of layoffs.
However, this Ni Chunhong beauty is just an unnatural appearance, not a dish like Ye Luwei who wants to pursue intangible and tasteless qualities such as knowledge cultivation, personality and temperament. So in his previous life, Ye Luwei was puzzled by the fact that Ni Chunhong, who was recognized by everyone, was the first beauty in the Zhongwan Bureau, where was the first, it was far inferior to Huang Qingju's natural cuteness and his wife's delicate cuteness. Well, Hu Weiwei has a bit of a neutral temperament, although her appearance and personality are very good, she is not a pure IKEA and IKEA beauty, so she has to lose a little in Ye Luwei's eyes.
Ye Luwei was stunned for a while, and the three bachelors thought that Boss Ye was seriously thinking about their mention, and they didn't drink wine, and they all waited for Ye Luwei's answer.
Looking at the three old bachelors in front of him who were destined to be killed in the mud pit of history by the tide of the market economy, Ye Luwei didn't know how to tell them. Even if Ye Luwei does not participate in the competition, the young workers who have been on the top shift in recent years are the same as the three unenterprising old young workers in front of them, and the end is very sympathetic.
However, the poor man must have something to hate, among the three people, Tang Qijun later relied on the skill of playing wind drills single-handedly, and he could barely support a family.
The old black man finally came to his senses when he reached middle age, and practiced a good red case dish in the canteen, and later the project departments competed to hire him, but unfortunately he woke up too late, so he had to marry a second-married wife with a child, but it was also a reward.
Lei Ge blindly played hooliganism, was thrown into the equipment warehouse, and was soon begged to death by wine, leaving his young wife and young children alone, suffering from the cold eyes of his mother's family and socialism, and suffering enough to not listen to the old man's words.
According to Ye Luwei's incomplete estimates, more than 80 percent of the young workers who were laid off and more than 50 percent were divorced. Of course, history will not forget them, and will eventually sing the praises of their sacrifices and contributions, but the result must be borne by themselves, and no one can replace them.
In fact, at this time, in addition to state-owned enterprises, the average salary of private enterprises, foreign-funded enterprises, and joint ventures has almost exceeded 400 yuan. Only by sticking to this iron rice bowl that is about to rust and the old stubbornness who does not polish his own strength, and firmly holding socialism, will not starve to death, will not leave people without a place to live, will not leave people without a place to go to medical care, and will not make people unable to afford to study...... and so on, and so on, before they are truly abandoned by history. Among them is Ye Luwei's father Ye Jianguo, who studied "university".
This wine is destined to be bland and tasteless, and there is no result. Whether it is the pride of the traverser or the temper of the previous life, it is impossible for Ye Luwei to give them any promises. A person can't take the initiative to adapt to the environment, but only blame the environment for changing too drastically, always thinking that someone will help you budget a good budget, just want to put in a little effort to reap a successful life, which is obviously not in line with the survival rules of the earth's creatures.
In a society of rapid progress and upheaval, everyone is seeking progress, and computing occupies its best position. Even if you are a great character, but you stick to your old roots, you will soon be left behind by the overall progress of the crowd. If it falls too far, the ash will not be eaten. The best outcome is to open your mouth, face the northwest, and wait for the northwest wind to rise, stirring your flying life and pouring a cold wind into your stomach.
Of course, the current Ye Luwei can't be excited or anything, just blindly smiling and drinking slowly with a few old bachelors, the three pots of back to the pot meat as a condiment, Ye Luwei has eaten too much in his previous life, and his memories are not very good, so he basically didn't move.
The only episode was when the four of them were almost speechless, Hu Weiwei didn't know where she heard some rumors, afraid that Ye Luwei would be poured to death by alcohol, so she went to pull Huang Qingju together to find Ye Luwei, and the reason was that the three old bachelors were dumbfounded.
"We haven't eaten yet, come back and cook for us." The powerful reason and aura of the two beauties shook Ye Luwei so much that his chopsticks almost fell to the ground.
