The northwest wind didn't come abruptly, and the snow didn't seem out of place, as if everything was just right. Let's just say that this snow, if it is a little thin, the employees who are scheduled to hold the annual meeting at the Buckingham Palace Hotel tomorrow must be crowded; If it is a thick point, it gives Renmei Company an excuse to quit the appointment. It is not thin or thick, just enough to make this city full of lights and wine, and put on a layer of ice and jade.
Bell Bell Bell –
Ren Guisheng: Oops! Mr. Bai! I'm sorry Mr. Bai is really embarrassed, I was just changing my grandson's diaper, and the phone was answered late, you have a lot of Haihan, a lot of Haihan......
Bai Jinhan: I said, I thought you forgot the company discipline in any of your old shifts!
Ren Guisheng: Mr. Bai, look at what you said, how dare I forget this? Even if I am old and dizzy, I forget the discipline of the company, and I dare not forget your golden words, right?
Bai Jinhan: Okay, okay, goosebumps! What about it......
Ren Guisheng: You say Mr. Bai! Tell me! Knowing that you bothered to do this, the great kindness and great virtue will never dare to be arrogant!
Bai Jinhan: Well, it's done, but you can imagine the difficulty as a veteran employee, so I won't say more. In short, it was painstaking and laborious, running before and after, but fortunately, it was finally done after unremitting efforts!
Ren Guisheng: Huh? Oops! Thank you, Mr. Bai, on behalf of the whole family, I would like to thank Mr. Bai for his kindness!
Bai Baihan: Okay, okay, it's still a family! Why don't you say thank you to my eighth-generation ancestors? But don't get too happy! If you dare to let an outsider hear a little rumor, you will roll me up and get out! Don't blame me for being ruthless when the time comes-
Ren Guisheng: Obey! Don't worry, Mr. Bai, you still don't know me in the past few years?
Bai Jinhan: Well, if you hadn't worked together for a few years and you were the tightest employee in the company, I wouldn't have accepted it! Hold on...... Ah, hang up! (Toot Toot Toot Too)
Ren Guisheng: Thank you, Mr. Bai, thank you! Thank you, Mr. Bai......
Ji Ya: Mr. Bai! You're so eccentric! Actually said that others are the tightest mouthed employees, hum! Is it tighter than someone else's?
Bai Baihan: No, no, it's different...... I, I, I correct, correct! It's you, you, you're the tightest-mouthed employee, member, employee.
Ren Guisheng: Jishi...... Slept?
Ren Jishi: What's wrong Dad?
Ren Guisheng: It's nothing, it's just that Mr. Bai called just now and said that he could do it tomorrow night, and he wanted to tell you, so he could prepare and notify you in advance.
Ren Jishi: Oh, I know, it's too late today, tomorrow Dad.
The father and son were separated by the door, and although they were very excited in each other's hearts, they invariably answered each other coldly. As soon as Ren Guisheng closed the door, he thought about the various matters that needed to be arranged next, and Ren Jishi and his wife got up and high-fived after hearing the words, and began to edit the invitation, inviting colleagues and friends in social forms such as WeChat group sending and sending moments. Of course, in terms of the choice of words, the two were obviously much more sophisticated than their fathers......
Bell bell bell ......
Shan Yu: Hello, welcome to call the title orchestra, please speak.
Ren Guisheng: Hello, hello! Hello Commander Shan, I'm sorry to disturb your rest so late.
Shan Yu: You're welcome uncle, it's still early! How can I help you?
Ren Guisheng: Oh, that's right, an old fellow of mine recommended your orchestra to me, saying that it is very experienced in interpreting classical folk style with modern orchestra......
Shan Yu: Poof-general's order?
Ren Guisheng: Yes, the general's order! Boy, I want to make a good fortune! Listen to guys, you guys are very good at this classical song! It's really terrifying, but at a young age, he can choose to inherit and carry forward the traditional culture, which is really admirable!
Shan: Oh yes, yes, yes! "General's Order" is the repertoire of our orchestra! Uncle chose this magnificent classical song as the song for the wedding banquet of your mansion, which shows that the taste is elegant and proud! The younger generation admires and admires.
Ren Guisheng: Awards! Let's quote a price first, the head of the single group?
Shan Yu: Okay uncle! You also know that the shock, style, and elegance of live performance are by no means comparable to copied music, and the price is naturally not very cheap, basically the current market is starting at four or five thousand - (procrastination)
Ren Guisheng: Start with four or five thousand!
Shan Yu: Uncle, don't worry, wait until I'm done. Although the starting point is high, it is only inflated, and another one is introduced by a friend after all, and on the basis of discounts, you can also enjoy the exclusive discount of the old and the new, and the price is one thousand eight! How about we have a lottery head, and how about you have an auspicious picture?
Ren Guisheng: This, it still feels a little more expensive, do you think you can make it less?
Shan Yu: Uncle, don't joke with the juniors, we can hold a banquet at Buckingham Palace, do you still care about this money? It's a good day to be auspicious than spending three or five thousand less! You see that if this is not the case, we will no longer change the auspicious money, I will add a few more team members for you for free, and the number of people can better present the magnificent momentum of the "General's Order"! The sense of scene and atmosphere is not much to measure, don't you think?
Ren Guisheng: Well, you're right, young man! Then I'll have a hard time tomorrow night.
Shan Yu: Okay uncle! It is also our honor to serve your son! I'll send you a card number now, and you can make half of it as a deposit, and I'll arrange relevant personnel and props for you.
Ren Guisheng: Okay, good! Do as you say! (Toot Toot Toot Too)
After the deposit arrived, Shan Yu began to think about how to deal with this business, and the mobile phone roamed between his slender fingers. You can't call back the Ji Gang who was just scolded away, right? If you don't call this kid, this "General's Order" will be smashed! If you change to another place, you will smash it, but it is the Buckingham Palace Hotel after all! If the performance is smashed there, it is not just a loss of thousands of dollars for the band, but the loss is the signboard!
Shan Yu: Ho! Who the hell wants to have a grudge against the RMB? (Make a call)
Hello, the number you are dialing is temporarily unreachable, please call again later
Shan Yu: It's really a dog! What are you afraid of!
After notifying the others, Shan Yu suddenly remembered that when the band was formed at that time, he asked each member to write an additional emergency contact number after the phone number column in the registration form, and sure enough, this non-mobile phone number in the registration book played an important role at this moment!
Chu Xingzhi: Useless things!
Liu Er: The phone call in the middle of the night affected my performance.
Chu Xingzhi: I was trembling when the phone didn't ring, and now I'm complaining about the phone! Who doesn't have long eyes to make a blind call in the middle of the night!
Liu Er: Who? 2. What is the noise in the middle of the night?
Shan Yu: Hello uncle, I'm sorry to disturb you so late! Do you know Ji Biao? (I'm worried about being hung up by the other party for no reason, so I'm straight to the point)
Liu Er: Oh, you mean Da Leizi? Why don't you know? I'm still half of his uncle!
Shan Yu: Great! It's such an uncle, Ji Zhuo's mobile phone has not been contacted, and the school asked him to come to school tomorrow, which is related to whether he will graduate smoothly, because the stakes are very high, so I want Uncle Lao to notify him overnight......
Liu Er: What? It's cold in the middle of the night, and the snow on the road is so thick that I can't go, I can't go!
Shan Yu: Help, uncle, you tell me your mobile phone number, and I'll charge you a phone bill.
Liu Er: This is still like a posterity who can do things, the phone bill will be free, give you a WeChat ID, and you will send the package directly.
Shan Yu: Okay, uncle, I'll turn it around for you, be careful, you buy a pack of cigarettes to smoke.
Liu Er: Twenty ...... These two packs of cigarettes are not enough to toss back and forth for one or twenty miles, and again, some more......
Shan Yu: Looking at the address, it shows that you are not called Jiulicha, why do you toss for one or twenty miles?
Liu Er: Now it's called Jiulicha, that's because most of the people on the village have moved down, and this place can be called Eighteen Licha before!
Shan Yu: This name is quite strange, and it is even more strange to change it. It's because this place stretches for eighteen miles.
Liu Er: That's a long story...... It's not that this rush is eighteen miles, this rush can be miles long! Legend has it that the trumpet sounded for eighteen miles......
Chu Xingzhi: There is no end to the conversation, right? Can't sleep in the middle of the night?
Liu Er: Lei Zi's classmate, the school asked him to go to school tomorrow!
Shan Yu: You are tired, uncle, I will buy you a pack of cigarettes, you have worked hard.
Liu Er: Okay, hey, this ghost weather...... (Toot toot toot ...... )
Chu Xingzhi: Sledgehammer, he's back?
Liu Er: What a sledgehammer, thunder, thunder! I'm scared for you!
Chu Xingzhi: Long ability, right? I'm still scared, I've been sorry for you for decades, useless things!
Liu Er: Sleep your sleep! In winter, the old Ji family lives in the village to fish and raise ducks, you are happy, but it hurts my old Liu
Push the door in a cloak and lock the door, the snow is full of feet, and the moon is bright.
Buzz –
Liu Er hurriedly rubbed his ears, saying to himself that his ears were deafened, and then he lit a cigarette, rode a three-wheeled tram, and marched up the village road along the stream. Muramuratong obviously shortened the mileage that was falsely reported by Liu Er on the phone again, and after three or five miles, he suddenly heard the drums and horns contending, and the strings playing, although Liu Er said that he did not read much and did not travel extensively, but he also knew that this song was the song "Men should be self-reliant", but compared to men when they were self-reliant, they felt that the atmosphere was magnificent! Especially in this silver wrapping, under the bright moon and sky, it makes people proud and heroic, Liu Er only felt that this slow little three-wheeled was like a fierce horse galloping in the field, so he unconsciously sat in front of him, as if he had never been so heroic in his life......
The barking of the dog pulled him back to reality, and listening to the raging barking of the dog, Liu Er was inevitably afraid, so he stopped the car and howled loudly, just as the concerto came to an end temporarily.
Liu Er: Brother Yuan-Brother Yuan-(The dog barks more intensely)
Ji Zhuo: What are people shouting?
Ruan Yuhe: It sounds like the second brother at the fork.
Ji Diyuan: Yes, it's the second brother! Did anything happen to you this night? Xiaohe, you pack these things, Xiaozhen, let's go out and have a look!
Liu Er: Brother Yuan-look at your dog-
Ji Diyuan: Second brother, did you encounter something when you came here so late, you go up and sit down.
Liu Er: No, no, I am afraid of your two big dogs, and I don't dare to get out of the car. I'll have to go back if I say two words.
Ji Diyuan: Say it, second brother, just say anything!
Liu Er: It's not my business, it's Da Leizi's business! I just fell asleep and answered a phone call, it was Lei Zi's classmate, saying that the school asked Lei Zi to go to school in a hurry.
Ji Diyuan: The hard second brother ran a trip at night, it is estimated that the signal on the village is not good and hits your landline on duty, and there is nothing to bring at night, you can take back a few duck eggs just collected during the day and pickle them.
Liu Er: What do you say? This brother's relationship, Leizi's business, that is also my business, isn't it too obvious for you to do this?
Ji Ji ran into the courtyard at the signal of his father, put the crowbar still by the door, and turned to the pergola to hold out a plate of duck eggs that had just been collected in the evening, and Ruan Yuhe put down the kitchen knife in his hand to chop vegetables to clean up the big drum, suona, and pipa used by the three-person ensemble. Liu Er said no, but he neither left nor shirked to stop him, and waited until a whole plate of duck eggs was put into the tricycle before moving, turning around, and leaving.
Ji Diyuan: How can the school have your second uncle's landline phone?
Ji Zhuo: No, Dad, I knew who called him as soon as he talked about it, but I don't want to go back!
Ji Diyuan: Child, in the past two days, I have heard you talk about the reason for the entanglement of coming back one after another, if you start from the perspective of your father, your father and mother must be in the same camp with you, but from the perspective of bystanders, as the head of the regiment, Shan Yu's approach is not wrong, if there is a mistake, it is too intense. But if you can put yourself in his shoes and experience his pressure, I think you will be relieved.
Ji Zhuo: It has nothing to do with him now, it's because I don't feel able to adapt to the band, and it's a shame to go back.
Ji Diyuan: Silly boy, it's not me who sells melons with your mother and our mother-in-law! With your current traditional musical instrument attainments, especially the level of drums and suona, you will not be left behind in the slightest, believe in yourself! Self-confidence is the soul of these two instruments!
Ruan Yuhe: Don't listen to your dad! He is no longer confident, and his conceited ones don't know where to go!
Ji Diyuan: So to marry a wife, you have to marry a stable woman, and you have to suppress your own province.
The three of them laughed, and shook a little thin snow between the tiles, the full moon was like a mirror, the light layer of snow, the cold glow of the room, the chickens and ducks were housed, and the cold pool outside the courtyard was empty......
