The neighborhood of Pingshan Town is very small, and to put it mildly, you can go from one end to the other with a pee, so there are few restaurants on the street. According to Li Xiaoning's request, Gu Yun and the others chose the best restaurant in the entire Pingshan Town-Pingshan Hotel.

It is said to be a big hotel, but in fact, it is four large tile rooms, and there are no single rooms, but this is just convenient for more people to eat together. In the spacious room, four large square tables are fighting together, and it is not too crowded to sit in twenty or thirty people.

Zhao Aihua, as the director of the Party and Government Office, naturally volunteered to order food, beckoned everyone to take a seat, and watched the chubby proprietress bring two bottles of the old village chief over, and shouted: "Today is to pick up the wind for the new Mayor Li, how can you take this eight yuan a bottle of wine?" Replace the good one. ”

"Okay, there is Langya Tai, 20 yuan a bottle, do you want it?" The proprietress asked again uneasily.

"I want your best wine, two first." Zhao Aihua said very generously, anyway, he didn't need to pay for it.

"There are so many of us, how can two bottles be enough? At least five bottles. A middle-aged man in a police uniform answered.

"Then five bottles." Zhao Aihua said in a good manner.

Li Xiaoning swept his eyes and found that there were a total of fifteen men present today, and if there were five bottles of liquor, the average person would be three, two, three, and he said to Zhao Aihua with a little worry: "I still have to go to work in the afternoon, it's not good to drink so much, right?" ”

Zhao Aihua grinned and said: "Mayor Li, don't you know, our poor and remote country is different from your big city, you are busy from 9 to 5, we don't have any bird things here all day long, and the people don't come to do anything at all in the afternoon, so we basically don't have to go to work." Despite the open drink. ”

Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, Li Xiaoning couldn't disturb everyone's interest, so he no longer insisted.

Taking advantage of the serving, Zhao Aihua introduced everyone to Li Xiaoning one by one. The 21 people who came today are all staff members of various departments of the town government. What left an impression on Li Xiaoning was: Tian Wannong, deputy director of the town police station, was the middle-aged policeman who spoke just now; Bai Dengke, the family planning commissioner, is the young man who doesn't like to talk in the family planning office. In addition, there is Zhang Xiuzhen, the director of the radio station, a white and clean eldest sister in her thirties; Wang Yong, the head of the agricultural technology station, is about 40 years old and wears big black-rimmed glasses......

As soon as the introduction was finished, steaming dishes were served, and to Li Xiaoning's surprise, don't look at this store, the dishes are still very rich. What small fried chicken, stewed pork knuckles, braised goose paws, fried kidney flowers, kung pao chicken, etc., there is a table full of 12-inch white porcelain plates, all of which are sharp and sharp.

Zhao Aihua picked up the wine bottle and filled it for Li Xiaoning first, and then beckoned everyone to fill it, and then said: "Today is Mayor Li's first meal to our Pingshan Town. ”

Native rural people are basically very simple and bold, and the people at the table, including Gu Yun, a little girl who looks soft and weak, drank the wine in the cup. This couldn't help but impress Li Xiaoning, he is also a person who often drinks, and he can see that the white porcelain cup used to drink in front of him is not half a tael but also three dollars. At the moment, I didn't hesitate to raise my glass and wipe it out.

"Good!" Tian Wannong stood up and said, "The old rule of our Pingshan Town, three glasses of wine when you enter the door, even if you have one glass just now, it can be seen that Mayor Li is a refreshing person, and I will accompany you to drink this second glass." ”

Li Xiaoning just put down the wine glass, and before he had time to pick up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, he saw Tian Wannong raise his glass, hurriedly added the wine, stood up, raised the wine glass, touched it with Tian Wannong, and drank it cleanly.

Wang Yong continued: "Come, I'll drink the third cup." ”

After three glasses of wine, Li Xiaoning barely ate anything, but looking at a pair of pure eyes, he couldn't help but recall the scene at home when he was a child, and he was like seeing an old friend. He took the initiative to raise his glass and said, "I am very touched by the enthusiasm of everyone who came to Pingshan Town today. The three glasses of wine have been drunk at the door, so I will toast you with a drink. ”

Tian Xiuzhen, the head of the radio station, coaxed and said: "Mayor Xiao Li, there are rules for our toast in Pingshan Town." "Oh? What rules? Sister Xiuzhen said let's hear it. Li Xiaoning said with a smile.

Tian Xiuzhen said: "The rule is that you must either be disrespectful, or you must be respected, and you must be respected one by one." ”

Li Xiaoning said proudly: "Of course, one by one." ”

Li Xiaoning said it with pride, and drank the wine boldly, but after all, this is genuine liquor, not boiled water, and after drinking it in a circle, the wine bottle in front of him is empty. According to Li Xiaoning's alcohol consumption, he usually drinks one or two bottles of liquor without the slightest problem, but today he drank too quickly, his stomach was empty, and he already had some alcohol.

But this is not without reward, at least his way of drinking, which is not adulterated at all, immediately conquered the hearts of all the men and women present. Okay, I didn't eat a mouthful of food, and I drank a pound of liquor, which not only depends on the amount of alcohol, but also on sincerity. At this point, this Mayor Li is many times stronger than that Secretary Pang. I think that at the beginning, when Pang Weidong had just taken office and drank the wind wine, the deputy mayors toasted, and he was tian; Middle-level cadres toast, and he serves one end; The others toasted, and he nodded his head a little. A high-minded, domineering expression.

Tian Xiuzhen and several other women have already begun to mumble to each other: "It's still the sincerity of Mayor Xiao Li, looking at people's clothes, those with fine skin and tender meat, their background is definitely better than Secretary Pang's, but they don't have any shelf." I don't know if he has a partner, if not, he has to find a good girl for him quickly. "What are you looking for?" Isn't there a big beauty in front of you? Meng Meihong pointed at Gu Yun and said, "Look at it, it's a good match." "Sister Hong, you're making fun of people again." Gu Yun blushed and reached out to hit Meng Meihong.

"I think what Meihong said is also reasonable." Tian Xiuzhen stopped Gu Yun and said seriously, "Isn't Xiao Yun also without her mother-in-law?" He Dongliang still wants toads to eat swan meat. Now Mayor Xiao Li is here, just matching with you, and it has also broken He Dongliang's grandson's thoughts. "Sister Xiuzhen, why are you making fun of others?" Gu Yun blushed and said shyly.

"Who made fun of you, I'm telling you to be serious. Don't you still look down on Mayor Xiao Li? Tian Xiuzhen asked.

"What's the use of me taking a fancy to him? I have to be able to take a fancy to me, a country girl! There was a little more resentment in Gu Yun's tone.

"What's wrong with the country girl? Besides, what do you look like a country girl? As far as you are a tender skin that is bubbling in the water, the strange city girl can't compare to you. And you a**, you belly, if I were a man, I would want to rape you too. Tian Xiuzhen kept saying in her mouth.

"Oh, sister, what do you think you are talking about?" Gu Yun said with her hands covering her face.

"I didn't say that first. He Dongliang's grandson said every day that he would rape you. Tian Xiuzhen spat and said. Suddenly, his eyes widened, and he scolded, "Damn it, I can't help but chatter, I'm talking about this grandson, he's really here." ”
