Chapter 36: A Friend's Family Feast

Zhao Hongbing asked the big country to drive the car directly back to where they lived, and then said: "I'm going to a friend's house at night, I'll drive the car, you don't want to cook by yourself, just eat outside." ”

The big country said: "I buy some food and make it myself, it's so expensive outside." ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "I have already told the director of the talent market Zhang, let him find a capable nanny, cook and wash for us, these trivial things are too annoying, in the future, you will have time to think about the business things, and learn more from Mr. Liu and Feizai's old sales." ”

The big country said: "Brother Bing, don't worry, I will try my best to learn from them, and share some burdens for you in the future." ”

Zhao Hongbing drove to the mall first, bought a pair of jade bracelets for Wang Yidong's wife as a gift, and then returned to the talent market, the time was just right, about ten minutes to five o'clock, and after waiting for a while, Wang Yidong was also busy with his own affairs, and came over and said: "It's all arranged, go to my house." ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "Why did you come here, take my car." ”

Wang Yidong said: "I have a car, you drive with me, half an hour away." ”

Zhao Hongbing said yes, out of the talent market, Zhao Hongbing got into the Pusang car, saw Wang Yidong beckoning, and got into a black Toyota.

The two cars arrived at a dormitory compound one after the other, and there were military police standing guard at the door. When the military policeman saw Wang Yidong's car, he immediately saluted, Wang Yidong opened the window and said to him, the military policeman nodded, opened the electric stainless steel fence, and let the two cars go in. The car drove to a stop in front of a building, and Wang Yidong and Zhao Hongbing got out of the car.

Wang Yidong said: "This is the dormitory of the municipal government office, you will come to my house in the future, and you will press a password at the sentry box, and the password of my house is 35035, which is very easy to remember." ”

Zhao Hongbing joked: "Lao Wang, your car is good, it is more advanced than our bosses." ”

Wang Yidong laughed at himself: "With my little salary, where can I afford to buy four wheels, this is my father-in-law's car, and I borrowed it to drive it today for urgent matters." ”

While chatting, Wang Yidong led him to the highest floor upstairs, took out the key, opened the door and entered. The house is two bedrooms and two living rooms, which is larger than the house rented by Zhao Hongbing and Daguo, and the room layout is relatively simple.

Hearing the door open, a small pregnant woman with a big belly came out of the kitchen. Wang Yidong introduced: "This is my wife Sasha. This is my friend Zhao Hongbing, who is the CEO of an industrial company in Shenzhen, and he is very arrogant. ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "Hello sister-in-law! No wonder Mr. Wang's eyebrows flutter when you mention it, it turns out that your sister-in-law is so beautiful. ”

Sasha wore a pair of glasses on her face, her temperament was elegant and calm, and she looked indifferent after listening to the flattery, and said: "Boss Zhao opened a company at such a young age, he is really young and promising, why have I never heard you talk about having such a wonderful friend?" ”

Wang Yidong said: "Who knows, he is still my student, when he was in secondary school, he wore a black cotton jacket with a patch, rustic, I don't think he looks so handsome, and his head doesn't feel very bright." I haven't seen each other in the past two years, and the shotgun is replaced by a cannon, and it's not the same! ”

Zhao Hongbing said with a smile: "What about me, you were dressed in an old suit and washed white, the patches on your pants were like a gun target, and you were as thin as a monkey, and now you are almost unrecognizable when you meet you, and you have completely changed as a person." ”

Wang Yidong said with emotion: "Yes! We all came from the countryside, and our families were poor and very difficult at that time. ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "The state subsidizes 10 yuan and 5 cents a month, and then takes 10 yuan from home, and eats up to 15 yuan a month, and leaves a few yuan to buy books." Teacher Wang is okay, your salary is a little higher, I remember two times I ate steamed buns and almost vomited, so I had to go to your place to rub vegetables. ”

Wang Yidong said: "That's it, that's it!" It was a hard time, but I was in good spirits, and I still miss it from time to time. ”

Sasha couldn't hear Wang Yidong say something about how shabby he used to be, so he beckoned and said, "What are you doing standing!" Come on, come on, sit down and talk! ”

The three of them sat down on the sofa and chairs, Zhao Hongbing took out the gifts he bought, Wang Yidong saw it, and said dissatisfiedly: "What kind of gifts do you bring with me here, it's too outward." ”

Sasha liked the jade bracelet very much, and she couldn't put it down when she held it in her hand, so she glanced at her husband and said, "You never bought these for me." ”

Zhao Hongbing said with a smile: "Then let Mr. Wang save it for you, and let him buy an expensive one in the future." ”

Wang Yidong said: "Come on, my salary is enough to buy some food." ”

Sasha snorted and didn't speak, Zhao Hongbing saw that Sasha was heavy, so he had nothing to say and asked, "Sister-in-law is about to give birth, right?" ”

Wang Yidong said: "It's only six or seven months, she is relatively small, and her belly is very big, many people ask if she is about to give birth, in fact, there are still three months!" ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "Then you didn't take your parents over to take care of them?" ”

A trace of annoyance flashed on Wang Yidong's face, paused, and said: "My mother is not in good health, my father is alone in the family, and my sister has to take the college entrance examination again this year." My mother-in-law is at work and has not yet retired. When the time comes, I have no choice but to take my mother over first, which can help somewhat. ”

Sasha said, "What are you doing with your mother!" I'm studying medicine, so I know how to take care of myself. It's so nervous, it seems like a big deal! When I was about to give birth, I asked my mother to take a month off and take care of it for a while. Your mother is not in good health, don't let me take care of the young and the old at that time, put the cart before the horse. "Don't look at Sasha's politeness, but she speaks very impulsively.

Wang Yidong saw that she was arguing with herself about this in front of her old friend, and said angrily: "Okay, okay! Just listen to you, pick up your mom when the time comes! It's up to you! ”

Zhao Hongbing thought to himself that maybe the pregnant woman's temper was a little capricious, and he regretted that he shouldn't mention this inappropriate thing, which made the two of them disagree.

Wang Yidong asked Sasha, "How is the kitchen prepared?" ”

Sasha said angrily: "The dishes are all sorted out, I can't smell the smell of oil smoke, you can fry it yourself!" ”

Wang Yidong blackened his face and went into the kitchen.

Zhao Hongbing took off his suit and said to Sasha: "Sister-in-law, take a break, I'll go to the kitchen to help!" ”

Sasha said embarrassedly: "How can you do things with your hands!" ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "I haven't seen Mr. Wang for a few years, so we can chat for a while while doing things. We don't have to pay so much attention to this kind of relationship! ”

Zhao Hongbing pushed open the door and entered the kitchen, Wang Yidong said, "Why did you come in!" How bad is that. ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "It's nothing, two people do things faster." ”

Wang Yidong said: "Don't be surprised, she has the temper of this eldest lady, and she doesn't care what the occasion." I'm angry and helpless now, it's really for the sake of the child's face, otherwise I will never give in! ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't mention it." ”

Wang Yidong said: "How can I blame you for this! She has been pampered since she was a child, and she can only read and study business, and she doesn't understand any human feelings. ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "You are a big man, don't worry about these little things with your sister-in-law, not to mention that her body is so heavy, you have to be more patient!" ”

Wang Yidong said: "I'm not afraid of your jokes, she thinks that my mother is a countryman, this is unhygienic, that is not clean, she looks down on rural people from the heart, and she is determined not to let my mother come, otherwise I would have taken my mother over a long time ago." My mother is now suffering from frozen shoulder, she can't lift her arms at home, and she can't sleep, so she has long wanted to take my mother over for treatment. It is said that the climate in Shenzhen is particularly good for patients with frozen shoulder, and the symptoms will be milder as soon as people come, and after a long time, they will naturally get better. You see, she just didn't make sense and didn't promise my mother to come. You say it's not annoying! ”

Zhao Hongbing felt that there was a little contradiction between their husband and wife, and he had the heart to resolve it, so he said: "Alas! You and I are both people from the countryside, and we know the hardships and hardships of our parents best. If the conditions are better, I naturally want to take my parents out and enjoy the blessings. But this can't be rushed, first of all, you must have the same opinion and no contradictions, so that you can take your parents over. If you disagree with each other, even if the old people come over reluctantly, it is not interesting to watch you quarrel all day long, and it will not be able to go on, and it will affect your relationship as a husband and wife. Parents have suffered all their lives, and they are not at this moment. I think my sister-in-law is also a knowledgeable, educated, and high-quality person, and she comes from a family of senior cadres, so there is nothing unreasonable. You have to find a way to make her feel happy, accompany her a few more, let her sometimes think from your point of view, this is called empathy, let her empathize a few more times, she will be able to understand your mood, and she will naturally agree with you to take your mother over, and there will be no contradictions. Don't always needle-to-point, it's not the right way! ”

Wang Yidong turned his head to Zhao Hongbing and said, "Oh, classmate Zhao, what you said said to my heart!" Where did you learn these things? I remember not teaching you in class. ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "You! After reading books for a few more years, my brain got into water. When you came out of school and went back to school to teach, how many social and secular things did you come into contact with! I've been in business for a year, and I've been thinking about the relationship between people every day, and I've experienced a lot, so I naturally know how to deal with these things. This is also a kind of knowledge, a very deep knowledge! You follow the method I said, constantly empathize with her, when she can stand in your perspective, you will live a very harmonious and happy life. ”

Wang Yidong said: "Your kid has changed in the past few years, and he has become more sleek, and he has a lot of experience in this area. Honestly, how many good girls have you deceived? ”

Zhao Hongbing ignored him and said, "You have to remember that women need to be coaxed." No matter how much she learns or how high or low her status is, it's the same. You make her happy, and you will have a lot less trouble. ”

Wang Yidong laughed out loud and said, "I understand, my only trouble is here." It turns out that she misses her, I miss mine, and I can't talk anywhere. I coaxed her to think about my thoughts, and the problem was solved! ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "Sure enough, he is a smart person, and he can understand it at one point." Sometimes white lies are still needed, and if people are all honest with each other, and all thoughts are unreserved, the world will be in chaos. ”

Wang Yidong said: "It's the same at work, don't fight with others to win or lose, don't refute different opinions, don't confront head-on first, find a way to let him stand in my position, and the work can be carried out very well." ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "This is a deeper level! If you are mixed in officialdom, you should pay more attention to these details, and don't criticize others, making too many enemies is not good for your future. ”

Wang Yidong said: "Fuck, such a simple truth, why didn't I think of it before? No wonder some people say that I am domineering, unemotional, and too serious and calculating about some things. It turns out that if I am not serious or careful, it is also a science to coax others to use it for my use. ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "Do you think that the society is engaged in academic debate like the university? This is called taking a step back and opening up the sky and learning to back down. In this way, others will think that you are generous, open-minded, and considerate of others. Others will help you and speak for you. Everyone lifts, the flame is high! Leaders will value you and promote you. Your education, intelligence, and conditions are good enough, but you may just lack this social experience. ”

Wang Yidong said: "Your words can be regarded as untying a knot in my heart since I worked. Thank you, old friend, for teaching me a new lesson, and today I want to have a nice drink with you. Fuck, it's so painful! ”

"Hahahaha!" The two laughed in the kitchen.

Sasha was sulking in the living room when she heard them talking and laughing in the kitchen, and the laughter shook the sky, and she pushed open the kitchen door to see what they were doing.

Wang Yidong said to Sasha: "Wife, I was wrong! Everything was my fault before. I finally understood that I would never make this mistake again! I was so stupid before that I didn't know it! Hahahaha! ”

Seeing that he kept admitting his mistakes for no reason, Sasha laughed happily and was amazed, and said, "It's really the sun that came out in the west, and you also know how to admit mistakes?" ”

Wang Yidong said: "Yes, yes, I know my previous mistakes, it's really wrong, hahahaha!" ”

Sasha said, "You're so happy, I'll cook!" ”

Wang Yidong said: "No, no! Stir-fry two more dishes and you're done. Don't get your hands dirty again, my good wife is going to be distressed. ”

Sasha said happily: "I'm happy to see my old friend, and my words are good!" ”

Wang Yidong and Zhao Hongbing looked at each other, and the two laughed again.

After a while, a few dishes were ready, and when they were brought to the table, Wang Yidong took out a bottle of Kweichow Moutai. As the saying goes: people are in good spirits when they are happy! Wang Yidong and Zhao Hongbing talked about various interesting things in school, talked about their respective experiences in work and career, and talked about various classmates in Tiannan and Haibei, and they drank one cup after another.

Sasha said to Zhao Hongbing: "What kind of elixir did you give him, I haven't seen him so happy for a long time!" ”

Wang Yidong said: "This can't tell you, this is the secret between us!" ”

Sasha said: "Classmate Zhao, I will toast you with tea instead of wine, no matter what method you use, let Wang Yidong change back to the Wang Yidong I was familiar with before!" Thank you! Come, have a drink. ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "Thank you, sister-in-law! "Drink this wine with Sasha.

Sasha said: "Since our family came to Shenzhen, no one has talked to him like this, and he often sulks with me, and I even regret transferring him a little." You often come and talk to him when you have time, enlighten him. ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "I will come over often in the future." I have no relatives or friends here, only this old friend, sister-in-law, don't think I'm here too much! ”

Sasha said: "You see that the red soldiers of other people can talk a lot, and the sister-in-law before and after the sister-in-law makes me happy in my heart." When you can have a sweeter mouth, I will burn incense and worship the Buddha! ”

Wang Yidong said: "Wife, I didn't realize my problems before, and I was too nerdy. From now on, I will completely correct it, love my wife well, care for my wife, make my wife happy, and give birth to a beautiful baby! ”

When Sasha heard this, she was so excited that she burst into tears, and her heart was like dry grass falling with nectar, which was really sweet. He picked up the teacup again and said, "Come, I salute you two, I'm so happy today." ”

Wang Yidong also said: "Come, Hongbing, for our reunion today, for our happy little two, no, we should say three, come, let's have another drink!" ”

Zhao Hongbing drank a lot of wine, and he was happy today, so he only felt that the more he drank this Moutai wine, the more mellow it became, and he said arrogantly: "Come on, cheers!" The two drank the wine, Sasha also dried the tea, Wang Yidong picked up the wine bottle, but could not pour a drop of wine. It turned out that a bottle of Moutai was drunk by two people.

Wang Yidong still had to go to get wine, Sasha said that he had drunk too much, and he couldn't drink anymore, his tone was resolute, although he didn't have a heart, but there was still a little bit of a commanding taste, Wang Yidong couldn't help but be embarrassed, Zhao Hongbing hurriedly said that he had drunk too much and wanted to drink it next time. Wang Yidong just went down the steps and said in a muffled voice that he would definitely drink enough next time!

Zhao Hongbing looked at his watch, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening. said goodbye to Wang Yidong and his wife, and then drove back to the garden community, in this era, there was no traffic police to investigate drunk driving, and the road was empty, and soon he returned to his place.
