Episode 22 People in the rivers and lakes (13) each has its own heart
The dinner invited by Liu Sheng did not have any delicacies from the mountains and seas, just ordinary stir-fried dishes, plus the hotel's special dumplings, and the drinks were also very ordinary, which was a mid-range liquor and wine, and the two little boys each had a can of 'Jianlibao', which was not extravagant and wasteful.
After three rounds of drinking, Guo Kaixin saw that Liu Sheng had not mentioned the matter of 300,000 yuan for a long time, so he took the initiative to mention it, "Shengzi, I just came out and was short of money, you know Lu Dao, I took 300,000 yuan in your company, I don't know if your subordinates have told you about this matter." ”
Talking about money at the wine table has always been very emotional, Guo Kaixin opened his mouth since he did this, and the people present, including the two children, all stopped their eyes on Guo Kaixin.
"Dad, the tuition you paid me was borrowed, why didn't you say it earlier, if that's the case, I won't go to the football school," Guo Xiaogang's words, before grabbing Liu Sheng, Liu Sheng looked at the lovely Guo Xiaogang, he didn't speak, but patted Guo Kaixin's back again.
"Isn't it 300,000, our family's promotion is not bad, this aunt can be the master, and there is no need to pay it back," Liu's mother is very bold and has the style of her eldest brother 'Hao Stick', in the past few years, she has watched how Liu Sheng throws money, as long as someone comes to the house to borrow money, Liu Sheng never shirks, and does not need other people's IOUs.
"Auntie, how can this work, it is natural to repay debts, if you don't promote your son, you can go to your company as a new son, work for you, and slowly deduct it from your salary," Shao Linlin had already made up her mind, she didn't want Guo to open a new and black bookstore, if she wanted to get ahead, she had to be like Liu Sheng, with Liu Sheng's springboard, it wouldn't take long for Guo Kaixin to become developed.
"The old lady's family, the man's business, how can you interfere. Shut up Lao Tzu, "Guo Kaixin didn't want to work for Liu Sheng at all, he saw that Shao Linlin didn't understand him so much, so he didn't get angry and started scolding.
"I said Xinzi, did you mean me, I'm also a woman, you can't do it," Liu's mother knew that Guo Kaixin was picking a daughter-in-law's gift, but she still interjected.
"Auntie, don't be angry. He said what about me, he said what about me, this guy is just a big temper, how dare he say you, how dare he say you," Shao Linlin saw this scene, and immediately started a round, she was very afraid that Guo Kaixin would offend Liu's mother, so the old lady would be angry. The consequences are severe.
Du Juan's mother and daughter usually don't care about Liu Sheng's affairs, and today is the same, Guo Tonghui only cares about 'grilling shrimp' and feeding vegetables to his son. It's like you didn't hear it.
"Okay, I know about this, about money, let's not talk about it tonight. We just haven't been together for many years, so we have some home-cooked meals, and there are good things in the restaurant. I didn't call it, I think it still feels like this common dish, just like when we were on the railway, it was not the fourth sister-in-law, your father's cooking is very good, what's the matter, I heard that he is retiring? Liu Sheng's words were very touching, giving people who listened to a feeling of nostalgia.
"Internal retreat, it's internal retreat, just make room for apprentices, by the way, big boss, or you can bring my dad to our company to fight more, so that he can also make up for the difference," Shao Linlin didn't expect Liu Sheng to also talk about Shao Shifu, this Guo Kaixin's squad leader on the railway, has always treated the people below him very well, Guo Kaixin also led Liu Sheng to the Shao family twice, and ate the meals made by the old man, although it is not as good as the master of the big restaurant, but it also has a different flavor.
Originally, Guo Kaixin thought that Liu Sheng found himself today to talk about helping him, but when the banquet was about to disperse, Liu Sheng never spoke, so he let go of his hanging heart and ate and drank with Liu Sheng.
Over the years of the company's business, Liu Sheng has already practiced the 'iron stomach', the one who can drink with him is not a high-ranking official, or a big entrepreneur, and he has to prepare some etiquette at the wine table, for fear that others will say that he is 'uneducated', today is different, there are no outsiders at the whole table, in order to accompany Guo Kaixin, Liu Sheng also drank openly, and when he was drunk, the two children had already slept, and the women left the table and went to the sofa to stay.
"Dang dang," with the sound of hurried footsteps in the corridor, the door of the private room was knocked.
"Come in."
Guo Kaixin didn't know the person who came, but looking at this person's style, he didn't look like Liu Sheng's ordinary horse boy, and Liu Sheng opened his mouth without waiting for anyone to speak.
"Brother Qiang, you came just in time, come on, let's have two drinks."
When Guo Kaixin heard that Liu Sheng called the man 'Brother Qiang', his face was much bigger than himself, so he also stood up and said, "Hello Brother Qiang, my name is Guo Kaixin, and I am Shengzi's buddy." ”
This 'Brother Qiang' looked Guo Kaixin up and down, and then he didn't talk to Guo Kaixin, and turned his head to Liu Sheng again, "Mr. Liu, something happened to the Red Star Theater." ”
"What's the matter?" Liu Sheng didn't care too much, maybe he bought and sold too much, and he was used to such emergencies.
'Brother Qiang' didn't stare at Guo Kaixin and Liu Sheng anymore, but fell to Shao Linlin's side, this Guo Xiaogang was sleeping in her arms, his little head was lying on Shao Linlin's thigh, and Shao Linlin's plump breasts were pushed up to his son's head, like a 'Western angel painting'.
For this small performance of 'Brother Qiang', Liu Sheng and Guo Kaixin, who were too drunk, didn't care, only Shao Linlin seemed to smile at this 'Brother Qiang', it seems that they are already 'old acquaintances'.
After that, 'Brother Qiang' reported the incident of the Red Star Theater to Liu Sheng, saying that a few young people who did not go to school had a quarrel with the people watching the video in the theater.
"Did Lao Fu go?" After listening to the report of 'Brother Qiang', Liu Sheng did not have a nervous expression on his face, it seems that he has seen too much of this kind of thing.
"Go, it was his nephew who was stabbed to death."
"What, Lao Futou's nephew is dead," After Mother Liu heard it, she couldn't sit still, she stood up, walked to the wine table, and sat down.
"Mr. Liu, now that the police have come, they are looking for the person in charge of the theater, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
"Find it, find it, whoever is responsible, whoever goes, now the company is on the track, you ask me what to do, okay, I know about this, you go back."
"Do I still need to go?"
"What are you going to do. I said Brother Qiang, you are the vice president of the company, and the leader of the head office, you should take care of the next things in the future, you should take care of it, let's be big, we can't do everything yourself, the theater has been handed over to others, let others deal with it, if you don't have the ability to solve it. Leave as soon as possible and make room for good people," Liu Sheng's tongue was already big at this time, but fortunately, he spoke in a loud voice, so that people could hear it clearly.
"That's okay, then I'll go back first, and Mr. Liu will see you again," 'Brother Qiang' nodded politely at Liu Sheng, and Liu Sheng waved his hand at him. And those who came went out.
Dead people are not a big deal, Guo Kaixin really took it this time, looking at Liu Sheng's expressionless face and heartbeat, he couldn't drink this wine. He was more concerned about this matter than him, so Guo Kaixin pretended to drink too much and wanted to vomit, and covered his mouth with his hand.
The washing room has to go a long way, when Guo Kaixin wants to wash his face and go back. He found that 'Brother Qiang' did not go downstairs, he was instructing the two subordinates around him to do some things.
"Go back and call as many people as you can. It's half past ten, and at one o'clock on time to the place I said, do you know the way? ”
"Big brother, do you use a guy?"
"Excuse me, don't bring the guy to ask someone to have a fart, when the police leave, let's go to his hometown, Mr. Liu doesn't care, it doesn't mean that we endure this matter, how does Lao Fu treat everyone, everyone knows very well in their hearts, remember, call more people from the railway freight yard to come, this gang of B has energy, and they won't suffer a loss when they fight."
"Big brother, don't worry, this matter will be handled by designation."
After arranging everything, 'Brother Qiang' left the restaurant with two subordinates.
Guo Kaixin didn't bother to wash his face at this time, he quickly returned to the private room, ready to say goodbye to Liu Sheng.
"It's too late, the child has to go to class tomorrow, Shengzi, let's stop here today, we want to go first," Guo Kaixin hooked his hand at Shao Linlin, and Shao Linlin woke up Guo Xiaogang and dressed his son.
"Okay, since that's the case, let's drink it another day, waiter!" Don't look at Liu Sheng pretending to be indifferent on the surface, but at this time, his heart was also in a mess, and he called the waiter loudly.
"Mr. Liu, is there something wrong?"
"Ask the driver to send the new brother back, it's too late, let them go by themselves, I don't worry."
"Yes, Mr. Liu."
Regarding Liu Sheng's dispatch of the car, Guo Kaixin's family had no reason to shirk, and the whole family got on the 'famous car' again and went home.
When the car was about to drive to Guo Kaixin's house, Guo Kaixin proposed to go out of the car to get a thorough walk, so he asked the driver to drive away first.
Since Guo Xiaogang hadn't woken up yet, Guo Kaixin had no choice but to carry his son on his back and take a walk with his wife Shao Linlin.
"Have you eaten well? I don't think you eat much? This is a rare walk between husband and wife in so many years, and in the face of the cold evening breeze, Guo Kaixin opened his mouth first.
"It's like this with children to eat, for so many years, how long have you been with your children, I'm basically like this, the two old people have eaten and got off the table, how can I be embarrassed to continue eating," Shao Linlin's answer was quite accurate, she was talking from her heart.
"Yes, for so many years, I have been burdening you, Linlin, I promise you, I will definitely let you live a good life and let you and your son live a happy life."
"Besides, now we have nothing, we still owe Liu Sheng 300,000, I don't know when we can pay it back," Shao Linlin looked at the full moon in the sky, she seemed to be very confused about her future life.
"I will do what I say, tomorrow I will talk to Lao Hei about the bookstore, Lao Hei told me, this bookstore is very profitable, these two bookstores have tens of thousands of yuan every month, and after removing the cost, how can they also make 10,000 or 20,000 yuan." Guo Kaixin is still firm in his own thoughts, he wants to stay as far away from Liu Sheng as possible.
"What's the use of one or two thousand, the money for my son's school is not enough, or you should think about it, I think Liu Sheng still has the heart to keep you, under his hands, he can't treat you badly."
"Okay, okay, it's annoying, you didn't listen to it, now Shengzi is different from before, someone died in the theater for no reason, he didn't care, you said I had a good hand under him, I have to go in sooner or later, you don't understand the things inside, anyway, I don't want to go in this life," Guo Kaixin walked a few steps quickly with his son on his back, and returned home first.
Looking at the backs of the father and son, Shao Linlin shed tears, this is a rare tear, for many years, she has been alive and dead, today her husband is back, but the difference between them has widened, this mood is not good, she is still thinking slowly. (To be continued......)
