Chen Guan couldn't imagine that a small thing could really make the two brothers Bai Aiguo play such a black hand, and they were beating wheat in the field!

The work of threshing wheat is now the most tiring work of the year in the countryside, mainly from sending wheat straw bales to the wheat threshing machine to importing it to the wheat threshing machine and then directly stacking the wheat straw from the threshing machine with a fork.

Chen Guan has worked since he was a child, is strong and strong, and is an absolute stick laborer.

The six men worked all afternoon, and when the moon rose, they had finally finished all six acres of wheat.

Looking at the neatly woven bags full of new wheat, Chen Xuezhi said to Chen Guan happily: "This year's harvest is good, 54 bags of six acres of land, and after drying, there should be 50 bags." Our bags are small, they are all 80 catties, and there are 4,000 catties of wheat. With these 4,000 catties of wheat, leave 2,000 catties as seeds and rations, you can make 2,000 catties, and you won't have to worry before the autumn harvest. ”

Chen Guan is a poor student, but he has a high vision and does not see the 4,000 catties of wheat in his eyes. At this time, he has already made a decision in his heart, that is, he must have ideas to make money, make a lot of money, and no longer let people come to the door to ask for accounts, which is too polite!

Chen Guan didn't answer his father's words, his mind kept rolling, thinking about how to make money legally and quickly.

Chen Xuezhi saw that his son didn't answer his words, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he beckoned Xueyi, Mingli, Genbao, and Gencheng, who helped to beat the wheat, to go home and drink.

After Chen Guan followed his father home, the courtyard had already pulled up a big light bulb to illuminate the yard, and also set up a loudspeaker, playing folk music such as a hundred birds and a phoenix, and a happy yangyang, as if he was going to marry a daughter-in-law.

Eight square tables were placed in the middle of the courtyard, and a special mountain stove for red and white ceremonies in the countryside was built, and seven large and small stir-fry pots were squeaking, frying and stewing, and the courtyard was full of aroma.

Outside the kitchen, two large pots were set up against the wall, one for steaming buns and the other for boiling rice soup. The women were stirring the pot and talking about their parents' shortcomings, and from time to time there was a soft laugh.

On a wall there was a big red piece of paper, on which was written the list of deacons, the big and small kitchens, the dishes, the fire, the dishes, and so on, all arranged in an orderly manner, and the bookkeeper and the greeting were all in order.

People are busy during the wheat harvesting time, I don't know what Zheng Yulian said, so many people came to help and set up the field.

The children couldn't wait to be served, and the older ones were holding white buns and bowls, waiting to dig vegetables in front of the mountain stove, licking their lips with their tongues from time to time, and their stomachs were followed by a rumbling sound. The big children who dig up the vegetables eat directly, and the children who are in a hurry to eat and can't hold the bowl can only follow their parents or grandparents to dig vegetables, and those who can't wait are shouting and screaming, and the yard is full of laughter and the sound of beckoning children to eat.

Eight square tables were empty, with green mango cigarettes and Du Kang wine on them.

The men sat or squatted, gossiping, talking about the harvest, waiting for the main son Chen Guan and his son to come back, so that they could start a banquet and drink.

Originally, he was just thinking about having a drink with the old and young masters in the village, but he didn't expect it to be a big event, Chen Guan couldn't cry or laugh a little. But after glancing at the sudden glow on his mother's face, he didn't say anything more, and greeted the villagers one by one.

What Chen Guan didn't expect was that Bai Aiguo's sister-in-law, Bai Aiyue, director of the Village Women's Federation, was also helping in the yard and leading her daughter-in-law and girls to cook.

I haven't seen her for four years, Bai Aiyue has grown into a big girl, wearing a small pink blouse on her upper body, a black skirt on her lower body, a pair of half-high-heeled sandals on her feet, a gold necklace around her neck, a small gold ring on her hand, and a big black braid behind her back.

Seeing Bai Aiyue, Chen Guan remembered a scene on the wheat field, looked around, and did not see Bai Aiguo and Bai Baoguo, thinking that these two people were really stingy, and they kept that big thing in mind, and they didn't even come to dinner.

Seeing Chen Guan facing herself, Bai Aiyue walked over and said, "Brother Chen Guan, congratulations on graduating from college. Our village is going to produce big cadres! ”

Chen Guan didn't even know where he was assigned now, and he didn't have the idea of being a big cadre in his mind, Bai Aiyue said this, Chen Guandeng's face turned red, and he didn't know what to say.

Bai Aiyue chuckled, glanced at Chen, and went to greet people.

For a long time, the old Chen family has been in adversity, and has never held a banquet, including Chen Guan being admitted to university, and the family is struggling to make up the travel expenses, so they can only smile at the villagers who are happy. Now that her son has graduated and bought so many vegetables, cigarettes and alcohol, Zheng Yulian's spirit has suddenly come up, and her migraine has been much lighter.

After Chen Xuezhi, Chen Guan and the villagers greeted each other, the men who were sitting and chatting began to take their seats.

Naturally, Chen Xuezhi and Zheng Yulian sat at the main table, and several elders in the village sat at the main table to accompany them.

As soon as the people sat down, the dishes were served like flowing water, and it turned out to be a feast of eight plates of cold dishes.

Seeing that everyone was seated and the dishes were ready, Chen Guan asked his father to say a few words, and everyone had a banquet and a drink.

Chen Xuezhi has not been the captain of the production team for many years, and his temperament has become much softer, and his eyes are soft when he looks at his son. He shook his head and said that it was all from the villagers, needless to say. If you want to say, it's better for Chen Guan to say a few words.

Chen Guan has always been the class president in elementary school, junior high school, and high school, and he has not been a class cadre since he went to college, and he has organized few collective activities. However, he is a college student studying Chinese, he has read more books, he has read more biographies of great people, and he still has goods in his stomach.

Thinking that this is the first time he has gone home in four years, and the old Chen family is also the first time in so many years that it is so festive and lively, Chen Guan picked up the wine glass, stood up and said loudly: "Our ancestors have lived in Wulongyu for generations, eat the grain of Wulongyu, and drink the water of Wulongyu. My grandfather didn't say it, when he made a revolution, thanks to the cover and support of the villagers, even he was wronged later, criticized outside, wore a high hat and knelt on the bench, and when he returned to Wulongyu, the villagers did not disrespect him. My grandmother was sick all the year round, and when my parents went out, the villagers brought her food. My mother is not in good health, and my family always planted late and harvested late, all thanks to the help of the villagers. Ever since I was a child, I have eaten a lot of food from all the families in the village. I have always remembered this kindness and will never forget it. Now that I have graduated from college and returned to work in Mingshui, although I don't know where I am going to work, and I don't know if I can mix my personal appearance in the future, but I dare to say to the villagers that I Chen Guan is a child who grew up in Wulongyu, and I am a man who went out of Wulongyu, no matter where I go in the future, I will never forget the Wulongyu that gave birth to me and raised me, and I will never forget the kindness of my hometown to my family. Tonight's wine is a joy wine and a thanksgiving wine. First, I graduated from college and am going to work, so I can be regarded as reporting to my parents and fellow villagers. The second is to thank the villagers for their help to my family. Come on, let's drink, let's do it! ”

The whole yard was full of roaring cheers, Chen Guan raised his neck, and with a grunt, a glass of wine went to his throat.

In the past, the people of Wulong Mountain District were fierce, and drinking alcohol was a common thing, and the common people would use bud rice to make wine, which tasted as spicy as a knife. Later, I didn't talk about the difficult times, I didn't have to eat, and what kind of wine did I drink! In the past ten years, the conditions have been good, and the trend of drinking has slowly risen again, and when the men have nothing to do, several people get together and drink the bottle of wine. When you have a dish, get a few cold dishes to drink. When there is no food, drink dry, and drink very fiercely, as soon as you come up, you are used to a whole plate, that is, 12 wine cups on a plate, guess the fist or use chopsticks to knock the tiger bar, that is, the tiger eats chicken, the chicken eats the worm, the worm arches the bar, and the bar beats the tiger's simple game, whoever loses will drink 12 wines at once, until someone is drunk.

This kind of drinking method is unbearable for outsiders. As a result, there is a saying that "the sister of Wulongyu is as beautiful as water, and the wine style of Wulongyu is scared to death".

After Chen Guan drank the first glass, he called Li Fulai, who grew up with a bare buttocks, to serve him a wine and toast from table to table.

The reason why Li Fulai is called Fulai is because his parents are afraid of poverty, and they are looking forward to their son being blessed and not being poor. Therefore, the eldest is named Fulai, the second is called Fuyun, and the third is called Laifu. Not to mention, Li Fulai is not good at studying, he is good at planting crops to make money, after graduating from high school, he helped his father plant crops, and after a few years, he accumulated money, bought an electric motor, a small steel mill, a crusher, an oil press, and opened a mill.

Chen Guan shouted Li Fulai to serve the wine glass, that was because he grew up with a bare ass since he was a child, and he had an iron relationship.

When Li Fulai walked up to Chen Guan, he said in a strange voice: "People have to die more than people, and goods have to be thrown away." Since childhood, we have been playing with urine mud together, herding cattle together, collecting firewood together, and going to school together, and neither of us is higher than anyone else. Now the gap is out, right? One is a national cadre after graduating from university, eating white buns, drinking liquor, touching white milk, and there are mothers-in-law in every village; One is a farmer, who gets up earlier than chickens, sleeps later than pigs, and is more tired than cows, and has only one wife and one mother-in-law. Why is there such a big gap between this person and people? ”

Everyone laughed.

Li Fulai glared, and shouted loudly: "Chen Guan toasts, I tell you, you have to drink with your belly open, and no one is allowed to play tricks!" People in Mingshui City have said that leading cadres don't drink, and they don't have any friends; Middle-level cadres don't drink alcohol and don't have any information at all; Grassroots cadres don't drink, and there is no hope at all; The common people do not drink, and there is no joy at all; Discipline inspection cadres don't drink, and there are no clues at all; Brothers don't drink alcohol and have no affection at all; There is no drinking between men and women, and there is no chance at all. Old and young masters, do you say you don't drink? ”

When there are many people, it will be lively, and when the yard is boarded, there is a shout: "No! ”

Li Fulai is still playing treasure: "Old and young masters, let's drink Chen Guan's wine, that is to drink our own wine." Let's drink this meal, which is equivalent to congratulating and blessing Chen Guan. If everyone is drunk, we Chen Guan will be able to make a lot of money in the future, become a big official, and seek benefits for our Wulongyu people. When the time comes, our Chen Guan will be big, and he will look like a dog, maybe he will go to Mingshui City, Shuiquan City, and the provincial capital to become a big official, maybe he will drink red wine, touch his white legs, or even drink foreign wine and soak foreign girls. ”

Li Fulai was going to be foolish again, Chen Guan stretched out his hand and came to his forehead with a chestnut, it hurt so much that he didn't talk nonsense anymore, obediently holding a wine bottle in one hand and a wine plate in the other, and toasting behind Chen Guan.

The first glass of wine was naturally given to Chen Xuezhi, who was sitting at the main table.

Chen Guan raised his glass with both hands and said respectfully: "Dad, I wish you health and peace!" ”

Chen Xuezhi's tears almost flowed out, and he picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

Then, Chen Guan served wine to the elders at the main table one by one.

After toasting the main table, Chen Guan led Li Fulai, one table after another, only respecting. When I arrived at the table where Li Fulai was sitting, it was no longer good, they were all partners and classmates who grew up since childhood, and Chen Guan couldn't pass the test without touching it.

There are twelve wine cups on the wine plate that Li Fulai is holding, the wine cup is not big, in fact, there are more than one or two twelve wine on a plate, the problem is that there are eight people including Li Fulai, everyone has to drink a full plate, and a table is a pound smaller, and Chen Guan blushes like a Guan Gong.

Wulongyu people drink, women don't sit at the table, they dig their own vegetables and eat on the side. There are two exceptions here, one is Chen Guan's mother Zheng Yulian, who was forced to the main table by Chen Guan, saying that her mother worked the hardest and had to sit at the table to eat tonight. The other is Bai Aiyue, who is now the director of the village women's federation and a village cadre, and from time to time she also sits in the wine field and drinks with the cadres who come to inspect the township. Therefore, Bai Aiyue pulled a few girls the age of Chen Guan and sat at a table.

When he arrived at Bai Aiyue's table, Chen Guan said: "You don't drink alcohol, so if you drink water, I will also drink water, and replace wine with water." ”

Unexpectedly, Bai Aiyue stood up generously and said in a coquettish voice: "Brother Chen Guan is afraid that he will buy less wine and not drink enough, right?" Who says we don't drink? Come, I'll give Brother Chen Guan a drink! ”

After speaking, Bai Aiyue picked up the wine glass and touched it with Chen Guan, and drank it with her neck up.

Chen Guan couldn't drink less wine, so he could only sigh in his heart that he hadn't come back for four years and couldn't keep up with the changes in Wulongyu, so he honestly picked up the wine glass and drank it.

Bai Aiyue seemed to have a good amount of wine, and then touched Chen Guan five times in a row, drank the twelve wines on the plate, and her cheeks were also stained with a flush.

Li Fulai, this kid is cheap, and he opened his mouth to come: "Hey, hey, I said Chen Guan, don't think that only the women in the city are beautiful, our Wulongyu is a famous beauty nest in Mingshui." Or, let's have a fertilizer that doesn't flow into outsiders' fields, produces and sells itself, how about my brother pull you a line? ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a commotion outside the door.
