Chapter 751: The Head That Can't Be Raised, The Waist That Can't Be Straightened (Down)
'Philistine', many times Cheng Yijia is reluctant to use this word to describe his own brother. Bayi Chinese Network ?(1). But in fact, what he has done over the years has been labeled with this 'label'.
Cheng Yijia is still the eldest grandson of the 'proud' Cheng family. But Cheng Yiyi has long been polished by reality without edges and corners. Even 'groveling' to live.
gave his second sister-in-law a set of 'lone books', and Kestrel naturally prepared a gift for her sister-in-law that was not full, but it was enough to make her ecstatic - Han Lu had already known about the work allocation.
The kestrel that arrived at the point was just a few words of encouragement after the sister-in-law's politeness. He greeted him sideways, and only after inviting Han's father and Han's mother to the throne did he sit down next to Cheng Yijia's subordinates.
When I entered the house, I saw the three bottles of kestrel that had been flying in Moutai for some years, and they were silent. Even Han's father, who is known as the 'parent official' in the local area, didn't have a 'straight eye' to look at. But when Cheng Yijia put the plastic wine barrel full of 'wolf turning pot' on the table, the kestrel who had taken off his coat took the initiative to take the wine barrel, sniffed it after unscrewing it, and laughed loudly with a 'hmm' laugh: "Wolf turned the pot!" ”
"Ah Bing also likes this wine?" Father Han, who was sitting there, asked with a smile.
"It's been a good mouthful! I remember that at that time, the three of us brothers often stole the old man's 'wolf turning pot' to drink. I don't know how many times I've been drunk. ”
Cheng Yibing, who unscrewed the lid of the wine as he spoke, took the wine jug handed by the tank. After pouring nearly a pound of 'Gollum', he poured them one by one for several men present, and even the tank was not 'spared' tonight.
"Chief, I'll come......" The tank that got up quickly, and his cold words really revealed the identity of the 'kestrels'. For his own tank brother, the measure of raising his image all the time, Kestrel was somewhat 'caught off guard'.
The kestrel with a big heart, after glancing at this guy, said softly: "I am the youngest here today, so I should come." ”
poured wine for them one by one, and when they arrived at Cheng Yiyi's side, the kestrel who poured the wine asked with a smile: "Is the little brother used to drinking this wine?" ”
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the private room was slightly 'awkward' because of Kestrel Kestrel's inquiry. Cheng Yiyi, who was slightly embarrassed with a smile on his face, hurriedly replied: "I don't refuse any wine." ”
Faced with Cheng Yiyi's answer, the kestrel, who was smiling and silent, specially walked in front of Liu Yun. Put the flask down and pick up the milk yourself. fat drink, holding the bottle with both hands, half-bowed and poured a glass for his second sister-in-law. This action falls in the eyes of others, and it obviously has a deeper meaning.
"Second sister-in-law, you have worked hard all these years."
Liu Yun, who was a little 'flattered', didn't know how to answer. Father Han, who had all this in his eyes, lowered his head and played with his wine glass.
Kestrel was the last to pour himself a full drink, and he didn't sit down, and said to Father Han and Cheng Yijia with a bright smile: "Uncle, brother, I'll say a few words today." ”
Father Han, who heard this, nodded with a smile. Cheng Yijia will not have any doubts! When the kestrel with both hands raised his glass looked at Liu Yun, who was cramped and restless, everyone's eyes turned to this woman who had silently paid for the Cheng family man for so many years.
"In this world, many men live for themselves, but women are different, they live for their parents when they are young, they live for their husbands when they grow up, and then they live for their children, whether they are happy or not, they need to worry too much. Second sister-in-law, I salute you for the first glass of wine. After saying this, the kestrel drank it all and drank a full two taels of wine.
This scene also made Cheng Yiyi's face pale and his expression uncertain.
Smelling the tank that got up in a hurry, he lifted the flask and continued to fill it for the kestrels. The kestrel without any intermission, holding a full glass of wine, handed it to Cheng Yiyi with both hands, and the latter quickly got up.
"Ah Bing, what are you doing here?" Cheng Yiyi, who had an embarrassed expression, asked with a wry smile.
"Second brother, I salute you for this second glass of wine. There is a saying that I don't vomit or be unhappy: Men, I'm sorry for my friends, I'm sorry for myself, I'm sorry for anyone, but don't be sorry for the mother who gave birth to you, and the woman who gave birth to you. The former gives you life, and the latter continues your life. ”
With that, the kestrel drank it all again. After drinking, he lit up the empty cup in front of Cheng Yiyi! Cheng Yiyi, who swallowed deeply and foamed at the mouth, looked at the little cousin in front of him with some can't get off the stage.
"Ah Bing, what do you mean by that? I can drink wine, but I don't understand what you're saying. ”
"It's okay, I feel it! It's okay this afternoon, I went to the Cuiyuan community. When the kestrel said this, Cheng Yiyi, who was holding the cup, staggered back two steps, and even Liu Yun, who was sitting there, couldn't help but tremble a little.
took out a tissue to wipe the kestrel at the corner of her mouth, looked at Cheng Yiyi's 'frightened' expression, and added coldly: "I just want to see what kind of charm a woman who slapped my aunt in front of you and pointed at her nose and scolded my uncle." ”
Cheng Yijia, who heard this at first glance, slammed like a fried rooster. Cheng Yijia is filial, which is known to all ages in the circle. Don't look at him so 'conniving' with Han Lu, but he also has his own bottom line. On the day of the wedding, Cheng Yijia's attitude showed: filial piety and self-love!
That's his bottom line! And now, when he heard what Kestrel said, he was immediately angry!
"Ah Yi, what's going on?"
The kestrel turned its head and said softly, "Big brother, don't scare them if there are children." Sit down and say ......."
The kestrel, who got up as he spoke, pressed Cheng Yijia's shoulder and signaled him not to be angry. At this time, Cheng Yiyi, whose face was already bloodless, was stunned at a loss.
"His old Liu family can let you be promoted to the third level, and I can let you start with Bai Jie." As the kestrel said this, Tank handed the kestrel a copy of the document. After the latter took it, he threw it directly to Cheng Yiyi on the opposite side.
"Tomorrow the military inspection team will ask you for questions! Someone came directly from the northwest, not only to ask you, but also to Lao Liu's family. I can't do this thing about beating women, but her father taught such a girl, and she has to bear a certain responsibility, right? So I hit her dad, your immediate boss. This matter is not over, I want to use the 'splendid future' of their Liu family to make up for the dignity of the old Cheng family that has been corrupted by you over the years. In addition, Old Man Liu has already gone to Beijing, this is the rhythm of suing the 'Imperial Petition'. ”
"It's okay, he's disrespectful to his old age, and I don't mind letting him die in his old age. Second brother, where are your bones? When Old Man Liu scolded our old man in front of you, I didn't understand how you came with a smiling face. Do you think that 'lust for power' really takes precedence over dignity? ”
'Squeak, squeak, bang...... Cheng Yiyi, who was sitting on the bench, did not clench the wine glass in his hand. And he scattered a table, and the cup was broken to the ground.
The tadpoles on the side looked at their father dryly, and then under the guidance of their brother, the brother and sister got out of their chairs and walked towards their father.
The children still don't know what happened, but they know that this 'strange' uncle on the other side has made his father like this. Although they loved the puppet given by the kestrel very much, they stubbornly threw the puppet to the kestrels.
The child did not have much strength, and fell halfway through. The stubborn brother threw it many times in a row. At this time, even Liu Yun on the side left her seat crying and hugged the child.
"Children under the age of four know that in order to protect their father, they discard their favorite puppets. Dare to 'be an enemy' to anyone. Second brother, you are not as good as my two nephews. ”
With tears in its eyes, the kestrel glanced away. At this time, Cheng Yiyi, who seemed to be evacuated, lay on the chair and stool without any expression for a long time.
Until the little tadpole shouted 'Daddy' and 'beat the bad guy'...... Only then did he come back to his senses, and then Cheng Yiyi hugged his daughter tightly and 'howled and cried'.
Before the hot food was served, Cheng Yiyi's family 'left in a hurry'. At the behest of the kestrel, the tank went out to 'see off'. After all, they are 'cousins', after all, they are the hearts of aunts and uncles. The old man kept pressing this matter and waited for his kestrel to come back to deal with it, because he didn't want to make too much 'embarrassment'.
The kestrel that sucked the tip of its nose and sat up straight again, holding a wine glass and smiling at Father Han, said, "Uncle, they all say that family ugliness should not be publicized. Neither I nor our old Cheng family treat you and your aunt as outsiders. ”
"Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. Come and drink, I can't drink a glass in one go. ”
"Whatever you want, whatever you want!"
The atmosphere of the family banquet has returned to formality again. Kestrels, who have a wide range of knowledge, chatted happily with Han's father. Kestrel didn't say a word about the things that were fueling the troubles behind the scenes, even if Han's father vaguely mentioned it, Kestrel swept over the topic vaguely with the words of 'one family does not speak two words'.
Han's father, who is also an old man in the political arena, knows the other party's 'good intentions'. He silently wrote down this 'favor' in his heart, and he also knew that in the future, he would really have the label of 'Lao Cheng' on his head.
With the relationship between him and Cheng Yijia, it can definitely be called 'one glory and one loss'.
"Big brother, this is the list of personnel for this training course for young cadres. There are a few people in it that you should pay attention to, of course, the attention I said does not need to be deliberately catered to, you just need to speak in a measured manner. ”
As he spoke, Kestrel handed a folder to Cheng Yijia beside him. The specific information of these people is also attached! With this hand alone, Father Han saw the energy behind the kestrels.
"Your roommate's surname is Wu, and his real name is Wu Gang. Nicknamed Gangzi, you can have deep friendships. He's my comrade-in-arms! Already said hello and he'll take you to meet a few people. Or that sentence does not need to be deliberately flattered and pandered, as a friend or a brother. There is no need to be restrained, let alone apply the same set of officialdom to them. By nature, it's easy for your kind of personality to blend into their circle. ”
When Kestrel said this, Cheng Yijia was already looking at Wu Gang's profile. When he saw Gangzi's rank and current position, his eyes widened and he said, "So young, so violent? ”
"Just get used to it! These people, you have a good relationship, and you will be useful for a lifetime! ”
"I see!"
"And these old men, they are all our grandfather's old comrades-in-arms and old buddies. After arriving in Beijing, you visit one by one, the gifts don't need to be too expensive, just bring more of the 'wolf turning pot' we drink. Whatever they tell you to do, you can say no to as long as you don't want to. But as long as it involves drinking, you have to accompany them even if you are hospitalized. Old man Cheng's grandson, can't drink, our grandfather can't afford to lose this person. ”
Han Lu, who was sitting next to his man, glanced at the photos of these old people, and suddenly said in his heart: "This is not ...... On last month's news broadcast, he also ......"
Without waiting for Han Lu to finish speaking, Han's father, who had been bowing his head to drink tea, coughed twice, and Han Lu, who instantly knew that he was out of shape, quickly closed his mouth.
"Brother, in the past, our grandfather refused to hand over this relationship to us, because he was afraid that we would be 'crooked'. Like the second brother...... He couldn't afford to lose this man. For your more than ten years of 'polishing', you don't have any complaints in your heart. After all......"
"Ah Bing, I understand!"
"It's good to understand! I'm staying at home for a while. How so...... Brother, let's be a low-key person and do things in a high-profile manner. As long as we have a clear conscience, we can do nothing for anyone. ”
