On 67, the former leader came to greet the strange couple after a long absence
"You're leaving at seven o'clock?" Early Tuesday morning, when Gui Ying was about to go to work, Lao Ma came over with a cup and talked to him in the name of drinking water.
"Next week, the company has a lot to do." Gui Ying looked down to check the contents of the bag.
"Zhiyuan lives outside...... Do you know? ”
"Xiao ...... Know. Gui Ying kept a straight face and half-closed eyes, obviously, she was very unhappy to mention this stubble.
"Y-what do you think?" The old horse poked Gui Ying's elbow.
"I came back at one o'clock last night, and I couldn't walk when I got home, what can I think!" Gui Ying put the bag on her back and picked up the keychain.
"You two...... You don't talk to him? Ask him why! The old horse asked, leaning on the shoe cabinet.
"You're his father-in-law, why don't you talk to him? Besides, we've been here for so many years, when did he move out? It must be you who can't stand it! Drink less alcohol in the future, the smell of alcohol will have a bad impact on children, and when you are drunk, you will love to put your beard there! Gui Ying glanced at the old man.
"You're sorry I'm drinking! You drink eight times out of ten, which of us drinks more? What's wrong with me? I don't have anything! The old horse had a slanted face and a hard mouth.
"No, no! He wants to be quiet, let him be quiet outside, and don't interfere, don't disturb, and don't inquire. ”
"He doesn't have a job and doesn't hurry up to find a job, what a quiet! Don't spend extra money on delaying time, and now the rent outside is thousands a month, which doesn't add another burden to you! "The old horse told the truth. The old farmer still feels sorry for the yuan when he wears it.
"Don't calculate, okay! I've just done it, don't interfere, don't interfere! Why are you like this! Gui Ying twisted her body angrily and slapped the shoe cabinet hard.
"Why did I interfere? I didn't interfere with anything! I'm not going to talk to you about this - what's the hurry! Seeing that Gui Ying was really angry, Lao Ma pointed to the door and bowed his head softly: "Okay, okay, he is quiet, I will take care of the two children, you go yours, hurry up and go!" ”
Gui Ying remembered that he was drunk last night and took care of the old two by himself, and at this moment he heard that the old man was going to take care of the two, and he didn't believe it in his heart, so he sighed and opened the door and left.
Old Manu pouted, and went to the restaurant very disappointed. Gui Ying's tone, who would dare to rush at him like that? Even if it was her Ma Guiying, Lao Ma slapped her mercilessly. Now it's not done, Gui Ying is so busy that he feels distressed, and he is busy working without home; How pitiful it is to leave a broken doll, making noise at night to ask for dad and mom; My grandson is also aggrieved, how hard he studies on weekdays, and now he is also worried about the exams...... Lao Ma was so worried about everyone in the family that he lost his original principles and toughness.
I really drank too much last night, and now I'm still dizzy, and my mouth is still dry after drinking three glasses of water in the morning. After brewing green tea, the old horse sighed while sighing. He Zhiyuan is responsible for his departure, so he feels a little guilty in his heart. After thinking about it, what is the matter that he is a middle-aged man who has been staying at home and not working, it is also necessary for him to go out to experience experience and clear his mind. Lao Ma frowned and turned his head, if the two of them were going to break up inexplicably, wouldn't he become Yingying's sinner, thinking of this, he was reluctant to live outside for a long time. But the old man was stunned again, he was an elder and a father-in-law, and the father-in-law took the initiative to call his son-in-law to convince him...... The old man shook his head and saw that there was no way to go.
Gui Ying blames herself while driving on the road. blamed herself for knowing that the old man came to talk to her, she was not angry and had no good face. After returning home last night, she thought about calling Zhiyuan, first, it was too late to hesitate, and second, she was angry why he didn't take the initiative to call her. For this, it took a while for the qi blocked in the chest to dissipate.
"Flowers interpret words, birds sing to themselves. There are languages everywhere in life, different languages open up different worlds, such as sculptures, genes, etc., are languages, as well as spoken and silent languages. Language enriches life, interprets life, and inherits culture. Please write an essay of no less than 800 words on this topic, with a self-proposed topic and any genre, except for poetry. ”
At half past nine in the morning, He Yiming finished reading this paragraph for the third time in the examination room, scratched his head and rolled his eyes, turned his pen a few times, and continued to read it for the fourth time. After reading it for the fourth time, the young man frequently silently said one word in his mouth - what. That's right, after being brainwashed by his grandfather's dialect, when a teenager in the south encounters a problem, he often can't help but undervent this word - what; In front of classmates, there will occasionally be a "what's the matter", "what's the matter", and "what's going on" to make everyone happy.
Therefore, how to write a Chinese test paper with a full score of 15, this proposition essay that accounts for 60 points? The boy tapped his pen on the table, his mind blank.
Bite? Bite...... What-what!
Bite!
"Different languages open up different worlds", that's right, start with dialects! Writing about the customs, habits, and character of one side revealed or reflected in the dialect, He Yiming felt that his idea was simply super invincible! He listed the dialects commonly used by his grandfather on the manuscript paper, and then started with a few representative dialect words, wrote his feelings and understanding of the Weibei dialect of Shaanxi, and finally wrote the character of the Weibei people behind the Weibei dialect.
is writing about the people of Weibei, in fact, there are two people in Weibei that He Yiming is familiar with - mother and grandfather, counting the uncle whose Mandarin is better than his mother, there are no more than three Weibei people he knows. As for the second uncle and Aunt Xinghua, He Yiming basically didn't know their other qualities except for remembering their appearance. He pinched out the common merits of his mother, grandfather, and uncle, exhausted the best words he had heard and seen in sixteen years, praised them warmly, and finally wrote this essay heartily.
At 1:35 p.m., Ma Guiying had just woken up from her lunch break, and the phone rang before she could clear up. Seeing that it was a rare customer, Manager Ma was overjoyed, answered the phone, got up to close the glass door of the office, worried that his voice would affect others.
"Oh, why are you!" Ma Guiying closed the door and shouted.
"What's wrong, it's too busy to be inconvenient?"
"No, no, no! Colleagues just woke up from lunch break, not so busy! In the past few years, you have called me before the meeting, and this year I have been waiting, but you have not called, I thought your company was too busy! Gui Ying walked to the window and spoke outside the window.
"I haven't dared to call you lately, I'm afraid you're too busy to have time. How's the show? Asked on the other end of the phone.
"This year is not very good, not to mention the others, it will be launched next Monday, and there are still a lot of empty booths! Yesterday, our managers discussed that the exhibition would be arranged into venues, activity areas, service areas and scenic areas to support the scene. ”
"Yesterday, Lao Long sent me a booth map, I was surprised when I saw it, I didn't expect it to be so empty!"
"Yes! This year, except for Brother Long, who did not lose, everyone else earned less than in previous years! It's hard! ”
"How about I introduce you to a few clients?" The man smiled
"Yes, I can't ask for it!" Gui Ying patted the window frame with joy.
"I'll send you the contact later, all big customers, don't treat you badly. Oh yes, what's going on inside the company now? ”
"Hey...... It's hard to put into words. Some time ago, it was very loose, and the atmosphere of the big exhibition in Nan'an Media was not as close as the opening banquet for the Zhongcheng Association, and I ate more than 100,000 yuan after listening to it, and many vice presidents went......" Gui Ying described it in a hurry, and suddenly changed the conversation: "Fortunately, Sister Li had a meeting yesterday, and she was serious!" All the relevant personnel are invited, and as soon as this meeting opens, all the people involved will be obedient. I don't lie to you, I did a few things today, I went to the finance department, I went to the sending and receiving department, and the efficiency was so high - rare! I've never seen them so cooperative! As soon as Ma Guiying opened her mouth, she didn't stop talking without thinking about it.
Seeing that Guiying arrived at the reception of customers, the person at the other end hurriedly reminded her: "Eh Guiying, during the exhibition, each customer company will send a leader over, and you should prepare a gift for those leaders in advance." One is to pull the relationship, and the other is to talk about next year's exhibition, so that there will be a little pressure when the next exhibition is pulled. I'll send you a list of a few gifts later, which are not expensive or shabby, and look interesting and face-saving. ”
"Wow! Thank you, old leader, thank you, old leader! Thank you so much! I'm looking at how to entertain those customers one by one after they come, and when the time comes, there are too many and I'm afraid of offending people by not taking care of them! ”
"It's okay, they understand. If you don't take care of it on the spot, you can remedy it later. As long as you are honest and fair, they won't be angry. Now that you have time to plan and plan, ponder which business leaders can sit at a table, and then invite them to dinner while there is time for the seventh exhibition, which can not only help them introduce customers, but also increase your value. In vain, it is to condense and condense the set of old Qian Zong, research and research, and use it for your customers. Be sure to coordinate in advance, arrange in advance which group of people and which group of people, and you can put a piece of the opposite family without stopping - offending people. I'm afraid you'll have to talk to the person you're connecting with after you've arranged it. ”
"Makes sense! Reasonable! Gui Ying nodded repeatedly.
"Won't there be a lot of media at that time! You don't just let our own editors and reporters interview customers. You also go to contact reporters from major newspapers and media outlets, and do interviews and interviews with your big customers. There is no interview, and it is okay to show your face and leave a name on the official platform. ”
"I'm afraid the reporter won't want to."
"You talk to the client, ask them to give the reporter some gifts. Give a brand-name bag, a bottle of big-name red wine or a gift card of several thousand yuan, etc., and you can make up your mind what they want to give. In more than ten years, I have never met a journalist who is unwilling to accept gifts. Oh yes, now your business card is not customized by the company, you make some high-quality business cards yourself, and there will be various leaders at the venue, and you will use new business cards when you meet the leaders. Because the business card customized by Nan'an Media has not changed for more than ten years, the industry has already complained, and people threw it away when they saw the black and white logo, and they didn't look at it. ”
"Yes, yes, yes! I really didn't expect this stubble. The ...... on the navigation map"
The two of them had all kinds of gossip within Nan'an Technology and various problems about the Anke Exhibition, and Manager Ma seemed to be free, and his mouth couldn't hold back; The person on the other end of the phone was also polite, and tried his best to give her advice. When Manager Ma complained about someone like a cannon, the other party also listened to her nonsense very gentlemanly, unwilling to interrupt or stop.
Who is this gentleman?
It is none other than Wang Fuyi. Ma Guiying's former manager was the key person who helped her sit on the manager's throne.
Since Wang Fuyi left the Anke Exhibition, every time before the exhibition, he would call Ma Guiying to ask her about the progress of the exhibition's preparations, send her some customers or help her solve difficulties if she had difficulties. This year, Ma Guiying thought of Wang Fuyi several times in difficulty, but unfortunately she didn't dare to contact her, for fear of disturbing Wang Fuyi's current work. After all, he used to be just a department leader, but now, he is the head of a factory and a company.
The two chatted unconsciously for an hour and a half, if it weren't for Ma Guiying coming to work, this phone call would really not be interrupted for a while. Hanging the antelope words, Ma Guiying's heart was full of joy and confidence increased. Wang Fuyi is simply a six-ding six-top assigned by Rulai, such as the god-aided manager Ma on the way out of the office to find Vice President Wang, walking a little high head and a little buttocks a little upturned.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhong Li stood outside the gate of his son's school to look for Xuecheng. The children were released one after another, wearing all blue and white school uniforms, high and low, up and down, pouring out of it, Zhong Li was dazzled for a while, and he couldn't find his son for a long time, so he called Xuecheng's phone.
Zhong Xuecheng, who was looking for his aunt in the crowd, had not yet left the school gate and caught a glimpse of his father. The child was a little frightened, instinctively turned diagonally and hid behind the school gate, and when the phone rang, he answered behind the school gate. He lied that he and his aunt had gone out of the east gate of the school, and had already gotten into the car to go back. Zhong Li wondered, from the time the bell rang to the end of class, he had been staring directly at the children, how could he get in the car in a few minutes. Hanging antelope, Zhong Li, who was carrying a schoolbag, turned around and left.
He hadn't been to Fuchun District for many years, and as always, he wouldn't come to the door, even if it was his home in the legal sense. It was the only harbor Hyosung and his children had in the city, and he couldn't go. At this moment, the schoolbag was not delivered to his son, and he remembered Hyosung in frustration, so it was better to give her the schoolbag.
At this moment, Zhong Li, who is sober in his brain, seems to be a different person, maybe because of the courage given to him by his daughter Meimei, or maybe he needs to be sober after a long half-dead, passable and passing.
So, Zhong Li walked towards the Malatang store where Hyosung was. Zhong Li, who was no longer dragging flip-flops, put on neat sneakers and short-sleeved trousers, and looked a lot more energetic, as if he had returned to the beginning of the curtain. Malatang is five or six blocks away from her son's school, but Hyosung is still working in a clothing store at the moment, and she has to have a meal and a car to go to work in the Malatang shop after getting off work at five o'clock. Zhong Li knew this, he also had a meal halfway, and deliberately found the most convenient barber shop near his home to get a haircut for himself.
Lao Tao's daughter is in her third year of high school this year, and the girl has been sick frequently in the first two months of high school, because the pressure is too great, and her body collapses, with low-grade fever, dizziness and abdominal pain. Lao Tao was so anxious about this that he couldn't do anything, and in addition to watching the store at night, he had to boil soup medicine for his daughter. In order not to affect his daughter's rest, Lao Tao has recently broken off his only hobby of drinking at night.
Zhong Li, who had no one to drink with, also had no money to overdraw, so he didn't drink for a while. After the special period of alcohol addiction and harassment with sleep, although these bodies are weak, their minds are exceptionally clear. All the way through the thick shade road, in the rush of people, his slow pace was overtaken countless times. Looking at the men, women and children who were in a hurry and had been dusty all the way, he understood that he was not in the rhythm of life of ordinary people at this moment or in the past few years.
The fast-food delivery cart circled around him, seizing a second or two of his time; Parents who pick up their children from school lead their children to see the white clouds, enjoy the new flowers on the roadside, and appreciate the leisurely life on the earth; People in the car are instructed by the traffic lights to walk and stop for a while, and stop-and-go is the fastest driving route......
Life, perhaps, is destined for a few years to depart from the routine and the track, re-examine the secular life outside the square, and re-measure the humble self attached to the earth above oneself.
People need a bigger picture to look back at the old world in which he lives, and Zhong Li also needs to draw out another self to guide the old self.
Fall, for him, is also detachment.
The golden light of the slanting sun dances and shines among the leaves, the soft breeze after autumn is in the hairline of the ears, and the rhythm of the world flows at the speed of his feet, around him, and in his ears...... After the meal, he was a little thirsty, and the first thing he needed when he was thirsty was not to drink water but to drink wine - sour, cold, bitter, spicy, half a bottle in his stomach, his whole body swelled, and his brain floated.
Chili peppers, cigarettes, bitter tea, drugs...... Alcohol, like that, is physically painful and spiritually uplifting. From the moment of the pursuit of physical escape, people have become dependent on all the catalysts that lead to the pinnacle and tentacle gods. Security, Love, Money, Desire, Leapfrogging...... All spiritual dependences that make people detached are traps brought by the devil to mankind. And a person who is immune to all kinds of desires will be considered waste by society.
Zhongli swallowed and pulled himself back to consciousness. After suffering from alcohol addiction countless times a day, he has worked hard countless times to overcome it, and now his motivation to overcome it is Hyosung. He struggled to draw his thoughts to Hyosung.
After Bao Xiaotang received the child, she called her sister to report and told her about her interview today. When Hyosung heard that his sister's interview was very successful, and learned that she was going to work this Friday, Lenovo had no one to take care of her for a while, and Bao Xiaoxing, who had just arrived at the Malatang shop, panicked. After changing into overalls, Hyosung served food to a customer in the corner of the store, and because of concern, he swayed all the way to the large old bowl with a shallow opening, and when he was about to get to the customer, he was stunned, and a bowl of soup with hot oil had just boiled down Bao Hyosung's left arm and left hand.
Hyosung gritted her teeth and placed the bowl of Malatang in front of the guest, and after saying sorry, she wiped the oil and water on the edge of the bowl without changing her face. After the guests had cleaned up, she found a rag to wipe the soup on the floor, and only after the floor was cleaned did she wash the oil and water on her body and clothes. The cold water from the faucet wiped the back of Honghong's hands and arms, and she washed it with soap as if nothing had happened, and continued to stock up on two bowls of rice.
"I'm coming, I'm coming!" Seeing all this happening, Kong Ping frowned, quickly wiped his hand oil from the back warehouse and strode out, snatched the food from Hyosung's hand, and helped Hyosung supervise the two guests in front of him.
"Thank you." Bao Xiaoxing embarrassedly thanked Kong Ping.
"Oh, the back of my hand is so hot! I'll serve it, I'll serve it, you go to the back to wash the vegetables and prepare the vegetables. Kong Pyong pointed to the narrow warehouse, led Hyosung to the back, and first found her a plaster for hot treatment.
"A bowl on the eighth, nineteen yuan!" Dou Dongqing shouted outside, and Kong Ping hurriedly went out.
Hyosung applied the plaster and continued to work. Where can a person who grit his teeth and be ruthless perceive pain? From ancient times to the present, it is not easy to make money, it is not easy to work, this burn is nothing to her as a forty-year-old middle-aged person, as long as her muscles and bones are fine, she will always work, although the burn smear is only good for two weeks.
Zhong Li arrived at the door of the Malatang shop at 7:40, and looked left and right, but no one was seen. He wondered if Hyosung wasn't working here anymore, so he thought about calling and asking. I mustered up the courage to dial Hyosung's phone, but no one answered for a long time. Chung Rijin thought that Hyosung had left from here, and to make sure that he had approached and stood two meters away from the door of the store and looked at it for a long time, but there was still no one. The second call still didn't go through, and while wandering, he heard someone shouting at him: "Are you eating?" ”
It turned out to be Dou Dongqing. Dou Dongqing had already caught a glimpse of the tall Zhong Li in front of the big pot and stove at the door, and saw that he was scratching his head and hesitating, not like coming to eat but wanting to ask for mercy, so Boss Dou took the initiative to ask.
"Uh...... Is there a Bao Xiaoxing here? Zhong Li pointed inward.
"Yes, wait a minute. Bao, Bao ......" Dou Dongqing finished shouting at Henan Rao and shouted Bao Xiaoxing inside, and everyone in the store heard it.
Hyosung panicked, thinking that she had a job to do, Holly pointed outward, and then saw Chung Li standing dryly outside the mausoleum. Hyosung and Holly greeted the mausoleum, and the two walked towards a silent, dimly lit alley.
"Who's that?" Kong Ping, who had heard and seen all this, came over to inquire.
"At first glance, it's his husband!" Holly sprinkled more than a dozen spices on the freshly fished vegetables.
"How can you tell?"
"Cut! The look in the eyes of the husband and wife - it's so easy to tell! Holly, who was in his fifties, pushed the bowl of spicy tang to his cousin Kong Ping, and Kong Ping went to serve the food. Itching in his heart, he stared at the Hyosung couple talking in the light not far away from time to time.
"Why are you here?" The two stood still at the entrance of the alleyway, and seeing that Zhong Li was slow to speak, Hyosung asked first.
"Mei Mei...... After completing the exam, I bought him a school bag - as a reward. Chung Lee carried his schoolbag and showed it to Hyosung.
"That's it?" Bao Xiaoxing thought that he was here to talk about divorce, but when he heard that he was giving his son a schoolbag, he looked incredulous.
"Hmm." Zhong Li grinded the soles of his shoes, and there was nothing to say.
"One less time to beat him, it's worth you to buy ten bags, is it necessary to do this?" The anxious Hyosung turned around and strode away.
Fang Cai was worried that there would be no one to take care of her son in the future, and she made two mistakes when she quoted the price to the guests, and Holly was a little unhappy; Thinking of half of the experiences of himself and his son because of Zhong Li, seeing Zhong Li at this moment, I was really surprised, but I was even more angry.
The dull Zhong Li, standing alone at the entrance of the dark and gloomy alley, watching the person he always loved leave indifferently, was suddenly lost and at a loss for a while.
I haven't seen you for a long time, and for this meeting, along the long and tactful journey, Zhong Li has prepared a lot of energy. Unexpectedly, as soon as they met, he hadn't said three sentences, and this suspenseful meeting ended without a fight.
Kong Pyong was smoking outside the store when Hyosung entered the store, but he was actually spying on the Hyosung couple under the guise of smoking. Why is Kong Ping like this?
It's a long story.
