3. Acquaintances (3)
Ask for favorites, ask for recommendations.
As Xiang Fox's temporary assistant, it is incumbent on him to block the wine for the boss, and Rong Yi gets along with Shangguan Liang Xin warmly at the wine table.
He pushes the cup and changes the lamp, and his language is humorous and witty.
When toasting Shangguan Liang Xin, he was neither arrogant nor humble, sincere and not out of proportion, and no one was allowed to refuse.
Xiang Jinming praised Rongyi as a rare talent, and mentioned the matter of cooperating with him again during the meal.
Shangguan Liang Xin sat on the right side of the dining table, looking at Rong Yi opposite with suspicious eyes.
Is this charming Rong Yi, who has a large amount of courage and courage to block wine for the boss and persuade his colleagues to scold him, is he really the person many years ago?
During the banquet, Zhou Xing and Rong Yi's greasy behavior made Shangguan Liangxin nauseous.
She once again couldn't be sure to ask the financial director of the "Shengshi House" next to her about Rong Yi's name.
Undoubtedly, the glorious glory, the four fires, this handsome face that has been engraved in my mind for many years.
Shangguan Liang Xin once again confirmed that Rong Yi is still the same Rong Yi, his name and appearance have not changed, what has changed is his personality and temper.
It turned out that the high, arrogant, confident, and sunny Rong Yi had been destroyed beyond recognition by the merciless hand of time.
With an upright and arrogant personality, he has become an old Jianghu and an old fritter who knows everything just right.
During the banquet, Rong Yi went to the bathroom conveniently, just came out of the bathroom, and while zipping his pants, he came to the sink to wash his hands.
He looked at the mirror on the wall, combing the slightly messy hair on his forehead.
At this time, a middle-aged man appeared in the mirror, although he was not young, but he was heroic, and he could imagine that he was a beautiful man when he was young.
The middle-aged man saw Rong Yi's face in the mirror, he was slightly stunned, and his steps were slightly sluggish.
When he saw Rong Yi's handsome eyes looking at him, the middle-aged man dodged Rong Yi's slightly excited gaze and hurried into the bathroom.
Rong Yi turned his head to see the man close the small door of the squatting toilet and sighed softly.
I thought, just because of the stain on his body that couldn't be washed away back then, won't my father forgive him in this life?
The middle-aged man who walked into the bathroom just now was Rong Yi's father Rong Fan, who had just retired.
When Rong Fan came out of the bathroom, he saw his son Rong Yi leaning against the inner wall of the bathroom, drooping his head and looking listless.
Without looking at his son again, after Rong Fan washed his hands, he dried his hands with a toilet paper, threw the paper, strode out of the bathroom, and walked towards the largest private seat in the restaurant.
Rong Yi hung his head and followed his father in frustration, like an abandoned puppy, and followed his father into this private seat.
As soon as I walked into the private room, I saw more than a dozen elderly people sitting around the dining table, laughing or whispering.
Facing the wall of the entrance door hangs a banner that reads "60th Anniversary of Returning to the Homeland and Nostalgia".
In the middle of the banner sat a tall, thin, energetic old man with silver hair and white eyebrows.
When I saw my son Rong Fan, I followed my eldest grandson Rong Yi, who I hadn't seen for a few days.
The old man Rong Mao beckoned to Rong Yi, and shouted happily with a shriveled mouth: "Grandson, come, come to grandpa." ”
Seeing his eldest grandson, Rong Mao was as happy as a child, and this eldest grandson was proud of him even if he had a stain on his body.
Rong Yi knew that these old people in the private room were all old friends of his grandfather Rong Mao in the late fifties of the last century, who left Shanghai Shili Yangchang and went to the west exit.
They dedicated their youth to the great northwest, and after retirement, they all returned to their roots and returned to their hometown of Shanghai to settle down, just like their grandfathers.
Rong Yi often listened to his grandfather tell the hard, glorious and passionate history, which was a story of the times that made Rong Yi's generation of young people passionate after listening to it.
Grandpa Rongmao, a hot-blooded young man who learned rich and five cars, went to the northwest in that passionate time, went to the west, and went to the most difficult place to be a teacher, which was the ideal of Grandpa Rongmao's generation.
Grandpa and his entourage of more than 200 people were assigned to teach in various primary and secondary schools in the windy and sandy, water-defined, and desolate northwest.
The arrival of these young teachers has brought a new wind to the education of the Great Northwest, and people affectionately call them "Shanghai teachers".
The simple and innocent Shanghai teachers did not complain in the slightest in the harsh environment.
Shanghai teacher, a term that was once deeply rooted in the great northwest, has now faded away.
The special term "Shanghai teacher" is also the most intimate memory engraved in many people's childhood.
In the 80s of the last century, the old people who went to the west began to miss their hometown of Shanghai and returned to Shanghai one after another.
In particular, the development of Pudong New Area requires a large number of talents.
Many descendants of the West Exit have returned to their hometown of Shanghai at the beginning of Pudong's development.
The descendants of these Shanghainese who returned from other provinces came to Pudong and started a new development and hard work.
They can be said to be the first batch of builders in Pudong New Area, just like Rong Yi's father Rong Fan, aunt Rong Yin, second uncle Rong Onion, and little aunt Rong Yu.
Only Uncle Rongchang was alone, still sticking to Ningxi City in the northwest of the country.
Rong Yi's father, two aunts and second uncles all started a family in Pudong District, and they contributed to the construction of Pudong, where they performed their love and hatred.
Grandpa Rong Mao took his grandson's hand, and was so proud that his old friend introduced this proud grandson.
Rong Yi was so humble that he greeted every grandfather and grandmother intimately.
After leaving, he lowered his head and whispered into his grandfather's ear, this table of meal money does not need these old people who used to go to the west to AA system, he settled the account.
When Rong Mao heard this, he happily conveyed his grandson's respect and gratitude to his old friends.
These thin old people happily gave a thumbs up to Rong Yi.
I have to praise Rong Mao for having a capable grandson, and Rong Fan for having a good son with ability.
From beginning to end, Rong Fan looked at his son Rong Yi's performance coldly.
Rong Yi left the private room where his grandfather and his old friends were gathering, walked to the cash register, paid for his grandfather's meal in advance, and then hurried back to the private room where he served tonight.
When the two sides talked happily and shook hands to say goodbye, Shangguan Liang Xin, who was full of flavors, was mysteriously pulled aside by Rong Yishen.
Seeing Rong Yi's hands and feet, he took out a delicate gift box from the black Daben trunk.
When he gave the gift box to Shangguan Liang Xin, he seemed to explain unintentionally and casually: "Liang beauty, we met for the first time today, it is quite fateful, this is my gift to the beauty, please smile." ”
During the day, when introducing the observers one by one in the conference room, it seemed that this young and beautiful beauty was called Assistant Liang, and Rong Yi remembered this Assistant Liang.
He has always been honest and proud, but he actually gave himself a gift.
Shangguan Liang was stunned, looking at Rong Yi in disbelief and numbness.
Looking at his lips moving up and down, his flattering smile, and his cautious attitude, lest he not accept it.
Shangguan Liang Xin laughed and laughed, what is this? Is it a pursuit? Or is it close to me?
Shangguan Liang Xin wanted to reveal his identity, but he was afraid of hurting Rong Yi's self-esteem.
She swallowed the words in her mouth, and silently accepted Rong Yi's gift like a puppet.
Shangguan Liang Xinji got into the vehicle that had been waiting for the "House of the Prosperous World" and left.
At this time, Rong Fan, who accompanied his old man to participate in the old people's dinner, drove a black Mercedes-Benz towards his home.
Rong Mao looked at his eldest son who was driving expressionlessly, and complained: "Rong Fan, when can you change your temper?" Do you plan to face Rong Yi coldly for the rest of your life? ”
Rong Fan's eyebrows were frowned, he didn't speak, looking at his speechless son, Rong Mao said with relief: "Okay, didn't Rong Yi negligently hurt people back then?" He missed it. Who didn't have a young age, you forgot, you did things all day long in the Great Northwest? Rong Yi has changed, you can forgive him. ”
Rong Fan said angrily: "When will he marry a decent daughter-in-law and go home, and have another grandson and granddaughter, let's talk about it." ”
As soon as Rong Mao heard Fu'er, his eldest grandson may have been stimulated by the year and had no idea of getting married at all.
He thinks about his grandchildren, among the five grandchildren, the most headache is the eldest grandson Rong Yi and the youngest granddaughter Rong Lulu.
These two children are extremely gifted in their grandchildren, and their brains are incomparably smart, but they are too rebellious.
Sun Zi Rongyi's results in the college entrance examination to Tsinghua Fudan are the same as playing, but he would rather go to Jianghai University, saying that he is far away from home, he does not have to be bound by adults, he wants to be free.
Now he can be free, when he was a graduate student at Jianghai University, he crippled a child with a background for a female classmate, and squatted in prison for two years, now he is "free".
The youngest granddaughter, Rong Lulu, is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and her college entrance examination results this year are well-known in the northwest.
Her college entrance examination score exceeded Tsinghua University, Peking University, and Fudan by many points, but people hid it from Rongchang and Kong Jia, and quietly enrolled in a medical school.
Listening to the youngest son Rongchang, the daughter-in-law Kong Jia is so angry that she hasn't eased up now.
The other grandchildren and granddaughters are also well-behaved, going to Fudan, going to graduate school, studying abroad, returning to China to serve the motherland, step by step, which makes people worry-free.
Just these two grandchildren who made him favorite and the most headache, --- Rongmao sighed for a long time.
Shangguan Liang Xin stayed awake all night, in a multi-storey building built for high-tech talents in Pudong District, a room of more than 100 square meters.
Shangguan Liangxin sat on the recliner on the balcony, looking at the blue night sky, the bright moonlight and the starlight outside the window, recalling the past and bursting into tears.
