Chapter Twenty-Nine: Life Needs a Counterattack
"I forgot to tell you that my father's handwriting is very good, comparable to many famous artists in China, but he never shows it to others, do you know why? Because he knows that most of the people above the officialdom are not telling the truth, and he doesn't want to listen to false compliments. ”
Yes, based on this alone, Shi De glanced at Xia Yougao again. People in officialdom, few people can really see their own situation, many compliments around the compliment, in fact, the compliments are not your people, but your position, and after you leave your position, you will find that so many good and obedient words will be gone in a blink of an eye.
Shi De had already seen the all-owned Mercedes-Benz 36 parked in front of the hotel, he parked the Land Rover next to the Mercedes-Benz, and when he was about to get out of the car, Quanyou and Lan Guocheng came out of the hotel one after the other.
I haven't seen Lan Guocheng for a while, compared with last time, Lan Guocheng has gained a little weight, and his spirit is a lot better.
"Master Shi, it's been a long time." Lan Guocheng took a step forward, personally opened the car door for Shi De, and bent down slightly, showing due humility, "I've always wanted to ask you some questions in person, but unfortunately I haven't had the opportunity, I hope Master Shi can solve my doubts today." ”
As soon as he looked up, Lan Guocheng saw Xia Hua Shi Shiran get out of the car, he was stunned for a moment, remembered something, hurriedly took another step forward, and smiled at Xia Hua: "Sister Xia Hua, hello." ”
"Who's your sister? Am I younger than you, okay? Xia Hua was not angry with Lan Guocheng, and she also knew that the reason why Lan Guocheng was flattered was because her father and his father were about to join a team to govern Shan City, and her father was one level higher than his father.
"Okay, Sister Xia." Lan Guocheng was not annoyed, still smiling, "Fortunately, fortunately." ”
"Okay, don't revolve around me, today's protagonist is Master Shi." Xia Hua waved her hand, flashed to the side impatiently, and she beckoned to Quan You, "Hey, all the slippery heads, the words second master dumplings, is there any origin?" ”
"Of course." Quan You smiled, with a spring breeze on his face, "As for what is the origin, wait a minute, let the flowers tell you, okay?" By the way, I'll get a vaccination first, and there will be a VIP today, her name is Ma Feiyan. ”
Ma Feiyan? Xia Hua was stunned for a moment, only to know that it turned out that all of them were in the Longmen Array today, and couldn't help but be happy: "Ma Feiyan appeared, do you dare to let the flowers appear at the same time, the ex-girlfriend and the current temporary girlfriend meet, not afraid of fighting?" ”
"Don't be afraid, Hua Hua is a well-bred girl, and Ma Feiyan is a girl whose interests are paramount, so they will all refrain from doing so." Quan You laughed and led a few people into the hotel.
The hotel is not big, there are four or five tables in the lobby, surrounded by private rooms, and the private rooms are not elegant, only separated by curtains, very simple. After a few people entered, they found that there was already a person waiting in the private room
It's none other than flowers.
The flower wearing a wide windbreaker is really like a slim flower, blooming the most beautiful luster in youth in the dry and cold winter.
Several people knew each other, and there was no need to introduce them, after they sat down, Xia Hua sat next to the flowers, and the two whispered, and they didn't know what to say, and they laughed a few times from time to time.
"Flowers, the words "second master's dumplings", what is the origin of the words, tell us about it." Shi De was also curious about this, so he asked.
"Hee-hee, that's a long story." The flower grinned, revealing a pair of shallow dimples, "In this story, there is also the past of a sworn friend." ”
Lao Cheap is a classmate of Quanyou Medical University, and he is also a friend who grew up together since childhood, and he has a good relationship with Quanyou, which can be described as wearing a pair of pants.
When I was in college, in the early days of Quan Yougang and Huahua's relationship, it was always difficult for the two to agree on the issue of eating, Huahua is a southerner, grew up with three meals of rice a day, and it was difficult to swallow the northern pasta. And all of them are northerners, who grew up with snack pasta and don't like to eat rice. As long as the two of them eat out, they will always struggle with what to eat.
Quan You let the flowers every time, and the flowers are a careful girl, and she can't bear to see the painful expression of all you eating rice like taking medicine, so she takes the initiative to ask to try the pasta. As a result, from steamed buns, flower rolls to flatbreads, she had nothing to swallow, so she laughed at her for not having the life to go abroad, and if she wanted to go abroad, she could only go to poor countries in the third world, because developed countries in Europe and the United States are mainly pasta-based. And the countries of the third world basically eat rice.
Later, I tried many times, and finally Hua Hua liked two kinds of noodles - dumplings and noodles, especially dumplings, flowers almost never get tired of eating, and she summed up the reason why she doesn't like pasta, is that most people in the south don't know how to make pasta, and the level of playing noodles is too poor, so that the taste of the noodles is too poor.
It can be said that dumplings are a testimony of the love between Quanyou and flowers, and run through the most unforgettable good times during the love period of Quanyou and flowers.
Later, after being deceived by Ma Feiyan, the flower once went to eat dumplings alone, eating and eating, tears flowed, and happened to be bumped into by the old cheap, who had always had a crush on the flower and was very distressed, and poured seven bottles of beer in a row, ready to drink to encourage people to go to the flowers to court, but when he drank almost the wine, the flowers left.
The old cheap went crazy in the dumpling shop, and instead of letting the boss take the pen and ink, he used the brush he learned for three years in elementary school to write down the four earth-shattering calligraphy of "Erye Dumplings", and was immediately shocked by the boss Zhang Zhiqiang, and immediately renamed the dumpling shop he originally called Lao Zhang Dumpling Shop as Erye Dumplings.
Later, countless classmates came to the second master dumplings for dinner, and they were full of praise for the words of the second master's dumplings, and asked whose handwriting it was.
Listening to the flowers talk about the past of the second master's dumplings, Shi De laughed: "It turns out that there is such an interesting story behind it, brother, you really have a lot of stories." ”
Quan You smiled and looked proud: "Don't hide that Master Shi said, if my story is written, I can write a thick book, I have thought of the title of the book, it is called "Counterattack", which is a happy story about a loser in life who counterattacked the rich second generation and Bai Fumei step by step through his own efforts and struggles, and finally became a winner in life. Of course, I'm the only protagonist in my story, haha. But now, the protagonist is Master Shi. ”
Lan Guocheng sat on the side, with a humble smile on his face, but in his smile, there was a slight impatience, as if he was disgusted and robbed of his limelight.
Fortunately, Quan You is a smart person, he noticed Lan Guocheng's abnormality, he invited Shi to come today, one is to let Shi De see Lan Guocheng, and recently, he has also hung Lan Guocheng almost, and it is time for Shi to be a master, and once again ignite and point Lan Guocheng, otherwise it will be a long time, maybe Lan Guocheng will lose due respect and blind trust in Master Shi.
Shi De's influence on Lan Guocheng is based on Lan Guocheng's respect and blind trust in Shi De, therefore, in order to keep Shi De always in Lan Guocheng's mind as an omnipotent master, it is necessary to mention Lan Guocheng from time to time to make Lan Guocheng obedient. Although Quan You also knows that Lan Minxin has been transferred to Shancheng, and his influence in Shimen is almost negligible, no one can say what is going on in the officialdom that Lan Minxin will not make a comeback and return to Shimen one day. For the sake of long-term considerations, Lan Guocheng is a chess piece, and he can't lose it.
Moreover, in Quanyou's opinion, Lan Guocheng certainly has the shortcomings of being greedy and lustful, but he is not a scum who does all kinds of evil, so let Shi have to adjust it, maybe there is some use.
At least on the issue of Zhuo's Group, Lan Guocheng has made a lot of efforts, he was able to contact Ma Feiyan, and pull Ma Feiyan into the water, all because of Lan Guocheng's success.
"Before Ma Feiyan arrives, Master Shi, listen to Guocheng's distress first, Guocheng has always wanted to ask you some questions in person, and today I finally had the opportunity to sit together." Quan You first brought out Lan Guocheng, not only hinting at Shi De, but with Lan Guocheng present, it was inconvenient for him to reveal how he and Luo Xiaoyi calculated Niu Tianzi, and he wanted to secretly tell Shi De that he would settle Lan Guocheng first, and then talk about other important things.
Of course, Shi De knew that Lan Guocheng was present, and some topics were inconvenient to say, so he smiled faintly: "Guocheng has been looking good recently, obviously people are in good spirits on happy occasions, I don't know what else Guocheng has to worry about?" ”
It can be seen that Lan Guocheng has a good complexion on the surface, and he seems to be in good spirits, but between his eyebrows, there is a slight melancholy, and his eyes are godless, and his expression is slightly haggard. If you look closely, you will find that Lan Guocheng's fortune is declining.
Generally speaking, a family, especially between father and son, fortune will be closely linked, since Lan Minxin has been promoted from deputy mayor to mayor, fortune must be on the rise, and Lan Guocheng, who is the son of Lan Minxin, why does his fortune not rise, but decline? There must be a reason for this.
"Alas, don't mention it, Master Shi, it's hard to say. Recently, I have been fine in other aspects, my career is going well, everything is going well, but my body always feels tired, my whole body aches, especially my muscles are sore, and I am irritable, impatient, and I will be irritable and angry from time to time. Lan Guocheng also ignored the presence of Xia Hua and the flowers, and did not hide his own problems, mainly because of the recent changes in his body, which made him extremely uncomfortable, "I have no energy during the day, I often have nightmares at night, and it is rare to sleep peacefully." Also, when I go to a dark, damp place at night, I am very scared, and sometimes I shiver inexplicably, and I always feel that something is following me......
