Chapter 24: The Drunken Mantra
When Ye Xiaosheng received a call from Ding Zelin, he was about to get off work, and after listening to his call, he changed his mind. He decided to invite Qiao Shan to have dinner with him, but he called Qiao Shan, and Qiao Shan said that he was too tired and that she wanted to go back and have a good rest and go with him another day. So, Ye Xiaosheng called Lao Mo again, and Lao Mo happily agreed to him.
Together, they came to a place near the company where they often eat food stalls, and the boss recognized them and seemed particularly enthusiastic.
"You two, haven't you been here for a long time? Have you been particularly busy at work lately? The boss hugged the tableware and asked Ye Xiaosheng and Lao Mo with a smile.
"It's very busy." Lao Mo sat down and said. Ye Xiaosheng didn't answer, but just echoed and smiled.
"It's good to be busy, and being busy means that you have money to earn." The boss laughed.
"Well, yes, people have a lot to do." Lao Mo continued to interface.
"I'll get busy first, what do you two want to shout directly." The boss said and went back to his stove. There are a total of six tables in the whole supper stall. At this time, with Ye Xiaosheng's table, there are a total of three tables with guests. Ye Xiaosheng glanced cautiously, after all, he was next to the company, and he was afraid that it would be inconvenient for him to speak. Glancing at someone he didn't know, he was relieved.
"Boss, a plate of screws, crayfish, and two bottles of beer." Lao Mo shouted loudly.
"Got it, come right away." The boss also responded loudly.
Soon, a middle-aged woman in her forties came, and at a glance she knew that it was the proprietress and came to help after picking up the child.
When a plate of fried screws and two bottles of wine were served on the table, Ye Xiaosheng opened the two bottles and poured a glass for Lao Mo. Lao Mo was not humble, he drank and drank, and actually cried.
Ye Xiaosheng was surprised.
"My mother just died," Mo took a sip of wine and continued, "I really didn't let my mother enjoy anything, I think I was quite a failure." ”
Ye Xiaosheng suddenly heard this, and his heart was also uncomfortable.
"People are really boring." Lao Mo said.
"My work was stagnant and there was no one who could really help me. As I get older, I can't see the future at all, the cost of the child has been rising, and the wife's complaints are increasing every day, I don't know what I'm for? ”
Ye Xiaosheng understands Lao Mo, maybe this is what life looks like, Ye Xiaosheng has sympathy for Lao Mo. But he knows better that what fate will ultimately do is entirely his own problem. He doesn't want to be Lao Mo, and when he is middle-aged, he is powerless everywhere and there is a crisis. So be sure to prepare in advance.
Zhou Guoping said: If possible, be the master of fate and not give in to it; If it's not possible, be a friend of fate and don't fight against it. Ye Xiaosheng wanted to be the master of his own destiny. He didn't want to compromise with fate.
"Mourning, birth, old age, sickness and death are things that life faces sooner or later. The master must take care. Ye Xiaosheng slammed Lao Mo's cup hard with his own cup, and took a sip of wine.
"Do you know Huang Lin and Xiao Jian well?" Ye Xiaosheng began to ask Lao Mo tentatively.
"How can I not understand, they are really human spirits, as long as newcomers have new intended customers, they will grab them in various names, especially customers with oil and water. Alas, no more. Lao Mo knew that he had slipped his mouth, so he hurriedly covered it up.
He was afraid that talking too much would affect him.
Ye Xiaosheng understood Lao Mo, so he didn't ask anymore, and continued to persuade Lao Mo to drink, after drinking the two bottles, Ye Xiaosheng called for six more bottles, and drank for about half an hour, Lao Mo may feel embarrassed. He didn't know if he had drunk too much, so he said to Ye Xiaosheng: "Don't know too much about some things, pretending to be confused with understanding is the real way to survive in the workplace." People who live well in the workplace are half sober and half confused. He burped vigorously as he said this.
Seeing that the time was almost nine o'clock, Ye Xiaosheng patted him on the shoulder: "I'll send you back, you drank too much." ”
"I didn't drink too much, Xiao Sheng, there are some things that the sooner you know, the better, you actually don't know why Ye Xin was transferred, many things are not what you see on the surface, what you see with your eyes may not be true. In order to avoid falling into these traps, I advise you not to inquire about attitudes, because it will not do you any good. ”
After saying this, Lao Mo lay on the table. Ye Xiaosheng suddenly felt that there was something in what Lao Mo said. He understood a little but didn't dare to understand too much, he was afraid that he would be afraid. However, he also knew his own unwillingness.
"Old Mo, old Mo, wake up." He wanted to push Lao Mo hard, but to no avail. He thought Lao Mo was drunk, but in fact, Lao Mo was not drunk, he was just a little uncomfortable in his heart, and he suddenly understood why Ye Xiaosheng invited him to dinner. He lay on his stomach, just not wanting to bother, and he regretted what he had just said. What is he guilty of? I don't want to do it.
After lying on his stomach for more than ten minutes, he figured it out, Ye Xiaosheng may just be suffering from a bottleneck in his work, after all, he has been promoted for almost three months, and his performance has not gone up, so he is probably in a hurry. Thinking about it like this, Lao Mo felt that he was really old.
"Little Sage, where is this? I'm a little dizzy. Lao Mo woke up and pretended to be confused and asked Ye Xiaosheng.
"What do you think this place looks like?" Ye Xiaosheng asked Lao Mo.
"Oh, it's a food stall. Am I drinking too much? Lao Mo looked at the neatly arranged wine bottles in front of him and pretended not to know.
"Well, you usually drink a lot, are you in a bad mood today? That's why I'm drunk. Ye Xiaosheng was also suspicious in his heart, and he was embarrassed to poke him directly.
"Maybe, it's useless to be old." Lao Mo closed his eyes and continued to pretend.
"Xiao Jian always embarrassed me, I feel like I can't do it." Ye Xiaosheng continued the topic he wanted.
"It's nothing, leader, that's it." Lao Mo comforted him.
"He said last time that if it doesn't work out in two months, I'll have to leave the advertising project department." Ye Xiaosheng suddenly became serious. He didn't want to stop there.
"Ah, what would he say? Haven't you just re-signed the business responsibility letter? Am I still afraid of losing my job? Hmph, if he makes me unemployed, I'll be done with him. Lao Mo was suddenly angered by Ye Xiaosheng's words. He often makes this kind of mistake and always likes to put himself in his place.
"What can you do to him, he must be the leader, and he can do whatever he wants." Ye Xiaosheng wanted to hear Lao Mo break the news.
"He embezzled public funds, and I have a handle." Lao Mo unconsciously spoke again.
"Ah, really?" Ye Xiaosheng pretended to open his mouth wide on purpose.
"Well, I'm just hearsay." As soon as Lao Mo saw Ye Xiaosheng's expression, he knew that he was going to be finished again.
"Oh, alas, I wish something had happened to him. That way I don't have to go to his meetings anymore and I don't have to worry about making a fool of myself. Ye Xiaosheng sighed heavily and began to complain again.
"Don't think too much, things won't be this bad." Seeing Ye Xiaosheng's sad face, Lao Mo began to comfort Ye Xiaosheng: "You are much better than me, you have been promoted." I've been the same for so many years, with no hope of rising, and money is always like this. ”
"It's useless, I may be taken down by Xiao Jian soon." Ye Xiaosheng continued to sell miserably.
"Alas, you are unlucky enough, you are all Lin Feng's customers, and Lin Feng's customers are all given by Xiao Jian, and it is complicated." Lao Mo was unconsciously brought out by Ye Xiaosheng's words again.
"He Zhong is dying, yesterday I heard Ruyue say that his family has already taken several sums of money. But the doctor said that He Zhong's treatment was hopeless. Ye Xiaosheng talked about He Zhong again, which made Lao Mo even more excited.
"It's called a company that kicks you away when you don't have a use value." Lao Mo began to be indignant.
"Well, He Zhong is really miserable." When Ye Xiaosheng said that He Zhong was miserable, he shed a few tears with a conscience.
"This is fate, those who work have nothing to eat, but those who don't work live so chic!" Lao Mo complained again. After speaking, he probably knew that he had said something wrong again, and suddenly stood up: "I'm a little sleepy, I want to go home and sleep." He began to be afraid that he would continue to say the wrong thing, and he was about to break up with Ye Xiaosheng.
"Okay, let's go back." Ye Xiaosheng settled the bill. The two disappeared into the night.
