Chapter Twenty-Four: A Hospitable Friend of Wine and Meat
Chapter 24: Hospitable Friends of Wine and Meat
Finally settled, and the next day at noon they were ready to open fire for the first time. Li Hao arranged for Yang Qianxun to buy lunch without having to sign a rental contract with them. After Li and Liu went out, Yang Qianxun also walked out of the house, yes, this should be their temporary home now. Looking at the door for a long time, I don't know where there is a vegetable market or a supermarket, and if I want to simply take a taxi, the taxi driver must know. After waiting at the door for a while, he stopped a taxi and told him that he was going to buy groceries and find the nearest vegetable market or supermarket. The driver didn't make a sound, drove her through a traffic light, turned another corner, and soon arrived at a relatively large vegetable market.
Yang Qianxun got out of the car, walked in, on both sides of the market, is a shop selling steamed buns, she walked into the window, saw all kinds of steamed buns inside, the big one is about a pound of weight, and Shandong steamed bread is very different, the small one is about the same size as Shandong steamed bread, there are patterns on it, it should be made with a special mold, looking at the shape is very novel, I bought a few large and small, and walked into the vegetable market inside. Fortunately, the vegetable market here is more scattered, and the hygiene of the market is also good, and there is no pungent smell of rotten vegetables or expired meat mixture. Yang Qianxun remembered that when he first arrived in Guangdong, he lived in a distant relative's house, and one day his cousin uncle was going to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, Yang Qianxun volunteered to go with him, ready to help him get vegetables together, the two just walked into the vegetable market a few steps, a bad smell came to her nose, and she had a headache, and hurriedly pulled her cousin Uncle and said embarrassedly: "I'm waiting for you outside, you can go in by yourself." ”
Later, when he could cook in one bedroom and one living room in the factory, Yang Qianxun never went to the vegetable market again, and every time he went to the supermarket to buy vegetables.
Back at home, Li Hao and Liu Zhiyang hadn't come back yet, and Yang Qianxun began to prepare to cook. Yang Qianxun had never cooked at home before, and after arriving in Shenzhen, he learned to cook it by himself, although he was self-taught, but he felt good. Four dishes and one soup were served, Li Hao and Liu Zhiyang also returned, and Liu Zhiyang still held a bottle of red wine in his hand. Seeing the dishes on the table, he said loudly to Yang Qianxun: "This is our first meal after settling down in Xining, we must celebrate it!" ”
Yang Qianxun took out the wine glass, waited for Liu Zhiyang to open the red wine, and then poured it into three glasses. Li Hao raised his glass and said: "Today is our first meal in Xining, marking our first step here, in the future, we will be in the same boat through thick and thin, share weal and thin, work together, make our cause bigger and stronger, come, do it together!" ”
Liu Zhiyang and Yang Qianxun both raised their glasses, and the cups of the three of them touched together. After the first cup, Liu Zhiyang raised the poured wine again and began to speak: "I am very grateful to Mr. Li and Sister Qianxun, although we are from different provinces and have known each other for a short time, but you don't treat me as an outsider, I am very moved!" In the future, the two leaders will see my performance! After saying that, he poured the wine down.
Yang Qianxun was also a little excited, hearing the confession of the two excited men, he felt something, and also raised his glass and said: "I also say a few words, since fate has brought us together, we will start a business together in the future, I hope we can understand each other, help each other, find a way to overcome difficulties together, at any time, don't deceive each other, let us really do things well, okay?" ”
Li Hao and Liu Zhiyang raised their glasses, touched Yang Qianxun's cup, and said yes loudly at the same time.
A bottle of wine was quickly drunk, and the three of them began to eat, and then Liu Zhiyang said to Yang Qianxun: "Sister, don't say it, the dishes you make are still edible, beyond my imagination!" ”
Yang Qianxun replied to him with a smile: "What, do you think I can't cook?" If it weren't for the electric stove, I wouldn't be used to it, and I would have done better! ”
"You said that you are also a professional woman in Shenzhen, deputy general manager, I thought you would only work! Mr. Li has earned it, and finding a wife can go out of the hall and in the kitchen!"
Li Hao picked up a piece of chopsticks and vegetables, put it in Yang Qianxun's bowl, looked at her seriously, and said: "Thank you Qianxun, thank you for your willingness to give up a comfortable living environment and a smooth job, and follow me to this bitter cold place to work hard, no matter when, I owe you this love, I will always remember!" Yang Qianxun smiled at him comfortingly: "I'm from the hometown of Confucius and Mencius, didn't Confucius say that a woman's three obedience and four virtues, one of them is to marry and obey her husband?" Although we are not married yet, I have already decided that you are my future husband, so don't try to dump me, don't think about it at any time! ”
Liu Zhiyang looked at the two of them, threw a green vegetable into his bowl, and lightly underestimated it in his mouth: "I'm so moved!" ”
While resting in the afternoon, while waiting for Lu Yuan's phone from Yuanda Group, Li Hao's phone rang at four o'clock, and he picked it up and saw that it was the local number: "Hello, which one?" "While answering, I wondered if it was someone from these government departments who had been running these days?
"You're good, is it Mr. Li Hao?" An unfamiliar voice came, Li Hao looked at Yang Qianxun suspiciously, as if asking her if she knew the identity of the caller, and then introduced herself on the phone, "Hello Mr. Li, I'm Wang Yikuo, don't you remember, we came to Xining by train together?" ”
Li Hao muttered the name again, and suddenly remembered, "Oh! Hello, friends who travel to Qingdao! ”
Wang Yikuo smiled and said, "I've been busy lately, right? I've been looking for you, so that I have the opportunity to do my best landlord's friendship, I'm afraid you won't have time. ”
"I just came here to register a company and talk about buying a car, so I'm really busy, but I'm still glad to meet you as a friend!" Li Hao replied with a smile.
"If you're not busy today, why don't you sit together at night?" Wang Yikuo said.
"Although we are not very busy today, we are waiting for the leaders of the car sales company, and we have made an appointment to meet in the afternoon for further negotiations, and we will wait until six o'clock, if they haven't contacted me at six o'clock, we will decide?" Li Hao said.
"Okay, six o'clock, I'll call you then."
Li Hao hung up the phone and said: "If Lu Yuan doesn't contact us today, we will go and play with him, it's a big deal that we will pay, it shouldn't hurt to know more friends." Yang Qianxun and Liu Zhiyang both agreed.
At half past five, Mr. Lu finally called, and Li Hao answered.
"Mr. Li, I'm sorry, I'm still in Tianjun, and it should be very late to return to Xining tonight." Lu Yuan explained on the phone: "I contacted the second automobile, the second automobile said let me contact their dealers in Qinghai, I found them, and said that Yuanda was going to sell Dongfeng Tianlong to Qinghai, they did not agree, hey, regional protection, said that it is not through their company, we can not sell Dongfeng Tianlong here for the time being, I think it is better to find another way, you wait for me, tomorrow morning we will talk about specifics." ”
Li Hao put down the phone, felt a little depressed, and discussed with Yang Qianxun and Liu Zhiyang: "Let's talk directly to the dealers of Dongfeng Tianlong Qinghai, don't we have to go through Mr. Lu and Yuanda Group?" ”
Liu Zhiyang said: "The key is whether they can sell the car according to the conditions that Lu Yuan promised? We went to other 3S stores in Xining that sell big cars, but they didn't work! ”
Li Hao nodded: "Yes!" Don't think about it yet, is there any other way to see if Lu Yuan is there any other way tomorrow? ”
In the evening, the three of them went to Wang Yikuo's appointment on time, and drove to a farmhouse near Phoenix Mountain, although it was a farmhouse, but it covered a large area, and after getting off the car, Yang Qianxun noticed that it was a martyr's cemetery opposite, so she let them go in first, and she walked to the opposite side by herself, wanting to go in and see. Walking to the door, the doorman came out and told her that the door was about to close and that she should come back tomorrow. Looking through the door, there is a group of statues opposite, on the pedestal is the inscription of the revolutionary predecessors: "The martyrs of the Red Army West Route Army will always live in our hearts", and on the slope of the mountain behind the statues, there is a monument to the immortality of the revolutionary martyrs. Yang Qianxun looked at the door for a while with reverence, then returned to the opposite farmhouse, walked into the room, and saw Li Hao, Liu Zhiyang, and three men and one woman chatting enthusiastically. When Li Hao saw her come in, he immediately stood up and introduced: "This is my girlfriend, who came with us, Yang Qianxun." He pointed to the three men and one woman and introduced them to Yang Qianxun one by one: "This is Brother Wang, this is my sister-in-law, surnamed Sun, these two are Brother Yu and Brother Liu, Brother Liu is still your fellow countryman!" ”
Yang Qianxun followed Li Hao's introduction and shook hands one by one. The waiter brought a teacup and put it in front of Yang Qianxun, at this time, Yang Qianxun looked at the room where they were, the room was forty or fifty square meters, the dining table and chairs were placed at the door, there was a mahjong table inside, and there were also a few chairs around, on the other side of the mahjong table, there was a big kang against the wall, with mats and folded quilts. Chihiro was puzzled, and Brother Wang explained to her: "Many of our farmhouses here are like this, it is colder here, and the cold time is longer, and many guests like to sit on the kang to eat, chat, and play poker or something, warm." ”
Yang Qianxun smiled: "It's the first time I've seen a kang in a restaurant, it's interesting!" ”
Brother Wang pointed to the mahjong table and asked Li Hao and the others: "Can you play mahjong?" Touch two? ”
Li Hao hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand: "No, I haven't played." Liu Zhiyang also shook his head and said no. At this time, the brother said: "Then drink more tonight, come to the waiter, and order food." ”
Li Hao and the three refused to order food, and asked them to order local specialties. Brother Yu and Brother Wang's wife discussed and finished ordering the dishes, and Brother Yu said to the waiter, "Give us two bottles of good barley wine." ”
The waiter said, "Is it okay to have forty-five degrees of God?" ”
Brother Yu nodded and said to Li Hao: "Try our barley wine here, it's very delicious, and we drink barley wine in Qinghai." ”
Li Hao hurriedly excused himself: "The amount of alcohol is not good, you drink more." ”
After a while, the wine and food were served, Brother Yu opened the wine bottle and poured a full glass for everyone, Yang Qianxun estimated that the glass was about two halves, and pushed the glass away embarrassedly and said, "I really don't know how to drink, I have never drunk!" ”
Wang Yikuo, who was next to her, pushed the cup to her again and said, "You can drink less, just mean it, how can you not drink when you come to Qinghai?" ”
The sister-in-law next to her also helped: "It's okay, this kind of wine can't be drunk, let's drink less and let them drink more." "They're supposed to mean the men in this room.
Liu Zhiyang glanced at Yang Qianxun with a bitter face, and then turned his head to look at his cup helplessly. In the process of pushing the cup and changing the lamp, the two bottles of wine went down quickly, and Yang Qianxun's glass of wine also went down for most of the glass under the impetus of their repeated toasting offensives. At this time, the waiter brought up two more bottles, at this time, seeing that Wang Yikuo had no problem, Brother Liu and Brother Yu were louder, at this time, Brother Yu opened a bottle of wine and poured it full one by one, and when she arrived in front of Yang Qianxun, she hurriedly picked up her cup to stop: "Brother Yu, don't pour it, I really can't drink it, it's a waste!" ”
Brother Yu was not reluctant: "If you don't drink it, don't drink it, ma'am, don't force it." He pointed to Liu Zhiyang and Li Hao and said, "You must drink well, come, pour it." Yang Qianxun thought, the two of them must be finished, and it is impossible not to get drunk tonight.
At this time, Brother Yu said to Li Hao: "Mr. Li, it's not interesting to drink like this, let's make a fist." ”
Li Hao hurriedly pushed: "I won't, it's better for you to row, I'll study first." ”
Brother Yu and Wang Yikuo began to punch, and then except for Li Hao, each of them punched once, and a bottle of wine went down again, such a scene only had one feeling for Yang Qianxun "noisy"! So regardless of their commotion, he sat on the clay kang on the side and played with his mobile phone, waiting for the end of the meal.
Yang Qianxun drove, when the three of them returned home, Li Hao and Liu Zhiyang were already drunk and supporting each other, staggering, as soon as the door opened, Liu Zhiyang rushed into the bathroom first, and then heard a sound of vomiting, at this time Li Hao entered another bathroom, doing the same action, the room was filled with the sour smell of wine, Yang Qianxun immediately began to boil water to prepare to make tea, I don't know if the tea can relieve their drunkenness, but there is no other way. Li Hao staggered out of the bathroom, planted himself on the sofa, and said intermittently: "Now I finally understand it!" Don't dare to drink it next time! ”
At this time, Liu Zhiyang also came out with his support for the wall, sat on the chair with his buttocks, stretched out his long legs without an image, leaned his neck back, and said in his mouth: "Oh mom!" Drunk for the first time! Mrs. is uncomfortable! ”
Yang Qianxun looked at the two drunks, helpless, the scene at that time, no matter what she said, it was useless, it was already very good to be able to keep herself, so she also made up her mind in her heart, when they sobered up, they should talk to them well, in the future, in Qinghai, no matter who they are, no matter how good the wine is, don't drink it again, otherwise they will not be able to get along with themselves.
