Chapter Eighty-Three: Drink to the Heart's Content

Seeing Sun Kai's WeChat, I was also excited, he was able to achieve the position of vice president in such a short period of time, and his ability was really extraordinary.

I called him directly.

"Hey, Xiaotao."

Sun Kai's mood was high-pitched, and even his voice trembled.

"Sun Kai, do you really have to be the vice president?"

I'm still in a bit of a trance and want to make sure.

"Of course, I'm a new generation of talent hand-picked by the group, haha."

Sun Kai boasted proudly.

"Congratulations, you are now at the peak of your life, you have a house, a car, a high-paying job, and what is even more enviable is that you have such a beautiful wife as Mengxi."

"Thank you brother for your blessings, I still have some things, let's talk about it another day."

"Okay."

After hanging up the phone, I went to the vegetable market, bought two catties of green shrimp, a box of sea sausages, a catty of scallops, half a catty of conch, and bought some greens, and after walking out of the vegetable market, I bought two dozen beers in the small shop opposite.

Back to the yard, I began to cook, I first boiled the green shrimp, and then put the scallops into the boiling water to boil until the opening, cut the green peppers, boiled the oil, fried the green onions, ginger and garlic to make the fragrance, and poured in some chili oil and bean paste, put in less than half a bowl of water, at this time the sauce in the pot was already golden brown, I poured the scallop meat into the pot, stir-fried for two minutes, poured in the green peppers, within a moment, the whole yard was full of fragrance.

The conch is probably the same as the scallop recipe, but I put the hot sauce and sliced shallots in the fried conch.

Brother Scumbag walked into the yard, smelled the fragrance of vegetables in the courtyard, and said with satisfaction: "It smells okay, I don't know how it tastes." ”

He took off his short sleeves, threw them on the bench, and walked to the sink to wash his hands.

I fished out the green shrimp, squeezed some horseradish, poured some vinegar, and brought it to the table.

Although the dishes are simple, I strive for excellence in each dish, and I cook them with great care.

Brother Slag took out two bottles of beer in the bucket, took a big sip after opening them, and after sitting down, he picked up a scallop meat, threw it into his mouth, and tasted it with relish.

"How? Is it okay? ”

I looked at the scumbag brother excitedly and wanted a pertinent evaluation.

"Mmmm, yes, a little lighter, but the overall taste is pretty good."

Brother Scumbag gave a thumbs up, said while chewing, and nodded frequently.

After listening to Brother Scumbag's encouragement, I immediately smiled, picked up the beer bottle and touched Brother Scum, and drank most of the bottle in one go.

"Brother scumbag, I want to buy some goods tomorrow."

I picked up a small conch and picked it up with a toothpick.

"Your more than 30,000 yuan of clothing has not been sold yet, if you are buying other goods, what about these clothes? Is there a backlog? ”

Brother scumbag smacked his mouth and ate with a great appetite.

"I mean sell together, what sells as fast as you buy more, I can't sell clothes at all now, and no one buys them, if there are a wide variety of goods, customers will have more choices to buy."

I picked up a shrimp, dipped it in horseradish, threw it into my mouth and chewed it, and the sour taste of horseradish choked my tears.

"I understand what you mean, if you have sufficient liquidity, I still support you, so let's do it, tomorrow morning, I will take you to buy, this purchase is more troublesome, because you enter a variety of things, you need to go to a lot of places, but after a few more times, you are familiar with each other, and they will take the initiative to deliver to you in the future."

Brother Scumbag got up, walked to the bucket, and brought two more bottles of beer.

At this time, a car stopped at the gate of the courtyard, and Brother Scumbag and I looked at each other with puzzled faces, and looked at the gate of the courtyard at the same time.

Zhang Xueyao and Qin Xiaolan walked out of the car, and they walked hand in hand towards the courtyard, I was surprised, when did these two eldest ladies become so close.

"You, why didn't you go back?"

I stood up and looked at Qin Xiaolan with a puzzled face.

"Why, I'm not welcome, huh."

Qin Xiaolan pursed his lips and stared at me.

"Yo, drink it, uh, scumbag brother is good."

Zhang Xueyao politely said hello to the scumbag.

"I haven't eaten it yet, come on, let's eat it together, it's just served, it's still hot."

Brother Scumbag got up and went to the cupboard and took out two bowls and two pairs of chopsticks.

After taking a seat, Zhang Xueyao looked at me and said, "Wang Tao, what are your plans next?" ”

She went straight to the point, I was speechless for a while, and stumbled and said, "I, I'm talking to the scumbag about this, I'm going to buy a little commodity." ”

"And then?"

"And then it's a step at a time."

I was depressed, a little powerless, Zhang Xueyao saw it in her eyes, she said seriously: "Wang Tao, don't do everything alone, or you consider the old woman's suggestion, so that you will save a lot of time and energy." ”

"I will never accept the gift of that old witch."

With a flushed face, I grabbed the beer bottle on the table and drank it down.

Seeing this, the scumbag brother said lightly: "But you have already received other people's money, what she did to you is nothing more than to let you get rid of the market like a garbage heap as soon as possible, you took other people's money, are you afraid that others will give you a little more?" ”

"He just wants to die to save face and suffer the crime, and things have come to this point, and he still doesn't admit it."

Qin Xiaolan glared at me, but her hand was not idle, she picked up a shrimp and put it in my bowl.

I sighed deeply, looked at them and said, "Would you like to have a drink?" ”

"Drink, I'll have to drive in a while."

Zhang Xueyao glanced at her, took out two tissues and handed them to Qin Xiaolan.

"You can call it a substitute driver."

I took out a cigarette from my pocket, lit it, and handed it to Qin Xiaolan.

Brother scumbag said: "This yard has always been cold in front of the door, and it is rare to get together, so let's have a drink, and I will call a substitute driver later." ”

Qin Xiaolan looked at the scumbag brother and said, "Drink and drink, I'm still afraid that you will not succeed in Lu Zhishen, so bring wine." ”

I looked at the scumbag brother and laughed.

Brother Za got up and washed a lot of greens, cucumbers, radish, endive, coriander, etc., and fried a plate of egg sauce and brought it to the table.

A few people were talking and laughing and drinking.

After two dozen beers, the four of us were not satisfied, so I hurried out of the yard and bought two dozen more beers and two boxes of cigarettes from the small shop across the street.

After drinking the wine, the scumbag really smoked one after another, choking Zhang Xueyao and frowning.

After three rounds of drinking, I felt a little dizzy, but the scumbag brother drank very much, and he was dancing to the two girls about his sad journey.

"I'll tell you both, be a man to be content, when I first came to this city, it was called a miserable, only two thousand yuan in my pocket, I couldn't afford to rent a good house, I slept in a small hotel for two days, I felt that I had completely degenerated, at that time I was very similar to Wang Tao's thoughts, just want to find a job, stabilize, and then I went to work in a garment factory, for food and shelter, it was at that time, I took a fancy to the doorway of doing clothing trading, they produce a piece of clothing, the cost is very low, even if it is wholesale, you can make a lot of money, uh, uh, I worked for half a year, saved some money, came out to rent this basement, walked all over the streets and alleys of the city, and finally I came to the flea market in the north of the city, I also felt the popularity of small commodities and cheap clothing for the first time, I didn't even think about renting a stall, I only had one belief to go down, natural selection, survival of the fittest, people who were adrift, thinking about their hometown wives and children all the time, but I chose this road, even if I ate the last meal and did not eat the next meal, even if I was suppressed and excluded, Even if you are tired and only have one breath left, you have to persevere. ”

Brother Scum's wine came up, and he burst into tears and his heart ached, and even the two girls who were sitting opposite him listened to their eyes reddened and gently wiped them with tissues.

"Hey, Brother Scum's perseverance is not something that ordinary people can compare, the reason why he has come so far is that he has not forgotten his original intention, come on, come on, everyone have another drink."

I saw that the atmosphere was oppressive and dreary, so I stood up and livened up the atmosphere.

After putting down the wine glasses, I looked at Zhang Xueyao and Qin Xiaolan, their faces were red, as if they had entered the state, so they smiled and said to Zhang Xueyao: "Xueyao, dance for everyone." ”

"What, what? Dance? ”

Zhang Xueyao looked at me with surprise on her face.

Even Brother Scum and Qin Xiaolan clapped their hands and said, "Come one, come one." ”

"I see a photo on your TV cabinet, in the photo you are dancing in your clothes, very moving, you have learned to dance, let's dance for everyone."

"yes, yes, what kind of background music do you need, I'll help you find it."

Qin Xiaolan looked at Zhang Xueyao with excitement on his face, picked up his mobile phone, and clicked on Kugou Music.

"Then I'll give you a square dance."

Zhang Xueyao stood up very reluctantly, pouting her mouth, and she looked even more charming and charming after drinking.

"Hiro, square dance?"

I looked at her in bewilderment.

"yes, don't look at that."

After Zhang Xueyao finished speaking, she sat down again, picked up her wine glass and took a big sip of beer.

"Look, look, as long as you dance, everything looks good."

I looked at her with a wicked smile on my face, pushed Qin Xiaolan and said, "Have you found the accompaniment of the square dance?" ”

"Xue Yao, which accompaniment do you want to dance?"

Qin Xiaolan stared at the phone and pursed his lips slightly.

"Anything."

Zhang Xueyao staggered to the middle of the courtyard and tidied up her clothes.

A phoenix legend "The Most Dazzling National Style" sounded, the cheerful rhythm and Zhang Xueyao's smart dancing instantly pushed the entire wine game to a high tide, everyone laughed without scruples, Qin Xiaolan also ran over and danced with Zhang Xueyao's rhythm.

Brother Scumbag was interested, carrying a beer bottle, dancing the disco of the eighties, I had already smiled and bent over, looked at Brother Scumbag and said: "Brother Scum, your dance and music don't match, do you need me to help you find a DJ, haha." ”

"No, it's called self-hilarity, I can dance for an hour without music."

It became the home of the scumbag, and he writhed in the courtyard, looking intoxicated, and the three of us sat in chairs and drank wine, and soon two dozen beers were wiped out.

Qin Xiaolan lay unconscious on the table, muttering in his mouth: I'm coming for a bottle.

Zhang Xueyao sat on the bench drunkenly, her eyes were wooden, and she was humming a song she didn't understand.

Brother Scumbag leaned against the door of the basement and fell asleep.

I staggered to my feet, trying to help the scumbag brother to the bed, but as soon as I took two steps, I felt that the world was spinning, and my eyes were full of stars, and with a bang, I smashed the bucket in front of me, my clothes were soaked, and I only felt that I was very sleepy, so let's sleep here for a while.
