After making an appointment with Ning Haiping and Zhang Jianming on the phone, Ma Minggang arranged for Jin Xiaoqiang to take four bottles of Yangjiang Daqu, and several people walked from the Transportation Bureau to the stall on Linjiang Road.

When they arrived at the stall on Linjiang Road, everyone walked along Linjiang Road, looking for a suitable location, and when they arrived at the location of Li Jingxia's stall; Li Jingxia saw Yue Haohan and the others, so she greeted with a smile on her face: "Little brother, eat here with me in the evening, I know you, you are a friend of Brother Ning, the captain of the criminal police team." ”

Yue Haohan heard the greeting, looked at Li Jingxia, and remembered that he was with Ning Haiping during the summer vacation last year, when he was eating a stall here, he met Wang Pengfei and a gang of gangsters who came to make trouble, and Ning Haiping came forward to speak out for the boss.

Thinking about last year's events, Yue Haohan stood still in front of Li Jingxia's stall, and introduced Ma Minggang with a smile and said: "Director Ma, let's find a place to sit here, her service and the taste of the food here are quite good, I ate here with Captain Tongning and my brother Jianming last summer." ”

Ma Minggang looked at Li Jingxia's stall and said, "This place is more refreshing and clean than other places, let's sit here and sit at the table near the river." ”

The four of them sat down at a table near the river, and Li Jingxia hurriedly took out a teacup from the store with a smile, carried a boiling water bottle, and poured a cup of tea water in front of everyone.

Li Jingxia had just poured the tea, and another slim and fair-skinned young girl came over from the store, the girl was holding a menu in her left hand and a ballpoint pen in her right hand, approached the table of four people, and asked, "How many bosses, what dishes do you order at night?" ”

Li Jingxia, who was standing at the table, introduced Yue Haohan with a smile and said, "My sister, her name is Li Jinghong. Then, Li Jingxia said to Li Jinghong again: "Jinghong, these are all friends of Brother Ning of the criminal police team, and we have a treat at night." After the introduction, Li Jingxia went to greet another group of guests.

Li Jinghong smiled and asked, "Big brothers, what do you like to eat?" My sister can say, we have a treat in the evening; Jiangcheng prawns, Yangjiang red bream, these two dishes are our best here, and what kind of dishes do you want to serve? ”

Ma Ming just picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip of tea, and replied: "There are not many of us, just six of us, you can look at the arrangement, and we will start serving the food when we all arrive." Li Jinghong answered, turned around and arranged.

When Yue Haohan and the four of them were drinking tea and chatting, they saw Ning Haiping walking over with Zhang Jianming and Huang Jianyang in the distance; When the three of them arrived at Yue Haohan and the others, Ning Haiping introduced Huang Jianyang to everyone and said, "This is Huang Jianyang and Huang Director of the Chengguan Police Station, and he is the junior brother of me and Jianming. ”

Huang Jianyang smiled, took out a bag of Hongtashan cigarettes, and politely offered one to each person, when handing Yue Haohan cigarettes, Yue Haohan smiled, shook his right hand, and said, "I'm sorry Director Huang, I don't know how to smoke." ”

After dispersing the cigarettes, after everyone sat down with greetings, Ning Haiping introduced Huang Jianyang and said, "This is Ma Minggang, director of the Transportation Bureau; This is the head of Wulong Township, Deng; This little brother Yue Haohan was selected and transferred to the Heiyazi Management Area of Wulong Township; This one is Jin Xiaoqiang, head of the comprehensive planning unit of the Transportation Bureau. ”

Every time Ning Haiping introduced one, Huang Jianyang stood up with a smile and shook hands with the other party, after the introduction, Ning Haiping smiled and said: "Jianyang is also half the master here, and I only learned about it recently." ”

While Ning Haiping was talking, Li Jinghong walked over from the store, looked at Huang Jianyang with a red face, and asked affectionately: "Jianyang, are you here too?" ”

Huang Jianyang pointed to Ning Haiping and Zhang Jianming, and said, "Jinghong, this is Brother Ning and Brother Zhang; In the evening, I asked the master to bring out all the dishes in hand, and I had a treat in the evening. ”

Li Jinghong responded, poured a cup of tea for Ning Haiping and the others, and after refilling the tea of Yue Haohan and others, he turned around and went to the store to arrange.

After Li Jinghong left, Ning Haiping said to everyone: "Let me introduce to you, Jinghong's little sister is Jianyang's girlfriend, and the two have already determined their relationship and are ready to get married on National Day; I'm also half a matchmaker. ”

Yue Haohan looked at Ning Haiping and asked with a smile: "Brother Ning, did Director Huang only know the two sisters Li Jinghong after we had dinner here last year?" ”

Huang Jianyang took over and said: "Fate! Thank you, brother, first of all, I will tell my brother, when we get married, we will ask my brother to be a 'big pedestrian', and you can't shirk it when the time comes. ”

The term "Daxingren" was the name of an official position in the Zhou Dynasty, and in "Zhou Li", it was a subordinate official of the Qiu Guansi Kou; Responsible for the major communication etiquette between the princes of the Son of Heaven. In Jiangyang, the 'big pedestrian' is the leader of the man who is responsible for leading the team to the woman to pick up the bride when he gets married, and it is also called the 'pedestrian head' in Jiangyang, which is generally served by the uncle or brother-in-law of the groom's official;

Hearing Huang Jianyang say this, Ning Haiping laughed and said, "Okay, it's okay, I'm up to this 'big pedestrian', then you immediately let your family Jinghong come over, and give you a toast first." ”

After a while, Li Jinghong came over with a plate of 'boiled peanuts' in her left hand and a plate of 'boiled edamame' in her right hand, and after putting the two dishes on the table, Li Jinghong said to Huang Jianyang: "Jianyang, you drink first, and the hot dishes will come up immediately." ”

Huang Jianyang said: "Jinghong, after the 'Jiangcheng prawns' are ready, you bring them over and eat them together, and give a good toast to a few big brothers today, and the other guests will let the eldest sister greet them first." Li Jinghong responded and went back to the store to serve 'Jiangcheng prawns'.

Jin Xiaoqiang got up and filled the wine glass in front of everyone, and at this time, Li Jinghong also brought a large pot of red and fresh 'Jiangcheng prawns' and put it on the table, and then sat down next to Huang Jianyang.

Ma Minggang looked at everyone and said, "Today's first glass of wine, except for Xiao Li, a few of us drank it, which can be regarded as catching up for Township Chief Deng and Xiao Yue, the two of them have worked hard in the countryside." After speaking, he touched everyone with his glass, and drank the wine in his glass with his neck tilted.

Ma Minggang put down the cup, smacked his mouth, pinched a prawn with chopsticks, and put it directly into his mouth without peeling the shell and chewed it together with the shell, Yue Haohan held the wine glass, stared at Ma Minggang, and asked: "Director Ma, it's the first time I've found someone who eats prawns like this, why did you even eat the shrimp shell?" ”

Ma Minggang swallowed the prawns in his mouth, looked at Yue Haohan, and replied: "Xiao Yue, you don't understand, I call it really eating prawns, it tastes like this, and it can also replenish calcium; He is like you, who eats only the small piece of meat that is behind; The shrimp and shell are wasted, in fact, the nutrition of this prawn is on the shrimp yellow and shell. ”

Deng Xuanfa picked up a boiled peanut, filled it into his mouth and ate it, and said: "I still think this boiled peanut is a good thing to drink, one peanut and two taels of wine." ”

Everyone chatted, Li Jingxia came up with a few dishes in a row, under the initiative of Ma Minggang, after everyone drank two glasses of wine together, Ma Minggang put down the cup and said to Huang Jianyang: "Director Huang, I have a suggestion, our transportation bureau has a façade near Changhong Avenue, which is very suitable for opening a mid-range restaurant, you might as well let the two Xiao Li sisters rent the storefront, decorate it well, and open a decent restaurant, which will definitely earn more than this stall for a year." ”

Hearing Ma Minggang say this, Huang Jianyang said: "The two Jinghong sisters also have such thoughts, but they haven't found a suitable position, since Director Ma said so, I will give Director Ma a glass first, and Director Ma will take more care of it in the future." With that, Huang Jianyang stood up, picked up the glass, touched Ma Minggang's wine glass, and the two of them drank it together.

After Huang Jianyang sat down, Li Jinghong picked up the wine bottle, stood up, and said: "Welcome to all big brothers to patronize us today, I won't drink, I will pour a glass of wine for each of you to express our hearts." ”

Ning Haiping said: "Come, let's all drink together, let Jinghong girl pour it for us, even if the meaning is there, it is just a lively picture on the stall, not so much exquisite." ”

Ning Haiping took the lead in picking up the glass, everyone drank a glass together, Li Jinghong stood and filled everyone's wine glasses again before sitting down.

Everyone continued to eat for a while, and Ning Haiping said: "Jianming, your 'joke basket' will tell you a joke to adjust the atmosphere, so that everyone will not drink a little dull." ”

After Zhang Jianming ate a edamame with chopsticks, he said with a smile: "Since my brother has arranged it, I will tell you one, this joke is a joke about first love." But Jianyang, don't worry, it's not the story of you and Jinghong's sister. ”

Zhang Jianming joked with Huang Jianyang and Li Jinghong, and then said: "The first date is beautiful, I had a classmate in high school, when I was in love, after self-study at night, he sent his beloved girl home, and the night gave him courage, he wanted to try what it was like to be with a girl." After Zhang Jianming finished telling the joke, everyone laughed and drank together.

After Li Jingxia greeted the guests at the other tables, she came over with two plates of dishes, put them on the table, took an empty cup, poured a glass of liquor, and said: "Big brothers, thanks to everyone's care, my little sister Jinghong can't drink, I'll give you a toast, how about we drink this glass of wine together?" ”

Huang Jianyang said: "Eldest sister, you should pour less wine in the cup and give everyone a separate toast; Let's start with Director Ma, Director Ma was still saying just now that their Transportation Bureau has a storefront, which is very suitable for opening a restaurant, and is ready to rent it out, so you can take some time to go with Jinghong to see how about that location another day? ”

Li Jingxia said: "Okay, as long as you take care of the big brothers, I think our business will get better and better, I will start with Director Ma, and everyone will have a toast." ”

Li Jingxia began to toast in front of Ma Minggang, and when she was saluted in front of Zhang Jianming, Zhang Jianming asked: "Boss Li, didn't you make trouble in this small shop later?" ”

Li Jingxia said: "Thank you Brother Ning and Brother Jianming, after the incident last year, under the mediation of Jianyang, those people paid for the damage, and then Jianyang and Xiaomei fell in love at first sight, and after talking about friends, no one dared to make trouble again." ”

After Li Jingxia finished saluting a round of wine, everyone drank with each other for a while, until the four bottles of Yangjiang Daqu were drunk, and everyone drank another bottle of beer, and then ordered to eat.

Yue Haohan finished eating from the stall and returned home, it was already past ten o'clock, his mother Wang Sulan and his sisters and brothers had already slept, and only his father Yue Yulin was sitting there in the living room watching the evening news playing on the TV.

Yue Haohan casually glanced at the TV, and saw that a news about the highway was being broadcast in the picture, Yue Haohan sat next to his father Yue Yulin and watched it seriously.

In the TV, the announcer's voiceover introduced: "The SD Expressway was officially opened to traffic today, the SD Expressway starts from SY in the north to DL in the south, with a total length of 375 kilometers and a highway width of 26 meters, which is currently the longest eight-lane highway in China; The opening of the expressway has created a precedent for the construction of long-distance expressways in China. ”

After reading this news, Yue Haohan said in his heart: "It seems that the construction of the country has entered the stage of rapid start, and once upon a time, I didn't know what kind of road the highway was. When will there be a highway from Jianghan to Jiangyang, and how convenient it will be to go to the provincial capital to do things. ”

When Yue Haohan was stunned, his father Yue Yulin, who was sitting next to him, coughed and asked, "Haohan, I drank a lot at night; In the future, you should grasp the point in the wine field, don't drink so much, hurt your body. Go wash up and go to bed early. ”
