31. Childhood friends
Chapter 81: Thirty-one, Childhood Friends
When he woke up, his head was still a little swollen, but he was much more awake. He got up and went to the bathroom to wash his face, looked at the disheveled clothes and messy hair in the mirror, recalled yesterday's scene, and let out a wry smile.
The first time I came to the door, I poured down my future eldest brother, which was really audacious.
However, he has no regrets. Respect is mutual, he and his uncle are equals, the other party has repeatedly provoked, he can't admit it, normal competition, the other party's skills are not as good as others, then there is no resentment.
If he doesn't drink enough and gets poured down, it will be ugly, but it will be even more difficult to recover.
From the eyes of his father-in-law-to-be, he saw a trace of shock and a trace of satisfaction. He decided he had made the right bet.
He tidied up, bought another red panda, and knocked on Ruoxi's door again.
Ruoxi opened the door and saw him, and asked him in a low voice if he was okay. He smiled and nodded.
"Xiao Zhao is here, have you had breakfast, let's eat together." Father Li was not as indifferent as yesterday, and greeted warmly.
"Thank you, I've eaten, I drank too much yesterday, a little nonsense, big brother is fine." He looked concerned.
"Hmph, it's okay, leave him alone." Father Li glared at her eldest brother. He was also a little frustrated.
"It's okay, this is the cigarette I bought for my eldest brother, which can be regarded as reparation." He bowed down and handed the cigarette down.
"Xiao Zhao, you are too polite, Ruohong, don't embarrass Xiao Zhao in the future, it's all your own family." Father Li hurriedly asked her eldest brother and Zhao Yuankang to apologize.
Her eldest brother was also surprised, and was a little embarrassed to give him cigarettes regardless of his previous suspicions.
This is the genius of his life, not only slapping you in the face, but also making you unable to speak of your suffering, and even willing to do things for him.
Father Li praised him even more at this time and listed him as a guest. He was also a lot more comfortable.
After lunch, he walked around with Ruoxi for a while, breaking through the obstacles of his parents, and their road to love became much clearer.
In the afternoon, he said goodbye to Ruoxi's family and drove back home to enjoy the rare Spring Festival time.
As soon as I got home, I received a call from a childhood friend, Hadson.
Qiangzi is a strong man, he went to and from school with him when he was a child, and later he left his hometown to study, and he can only see each other every Spring Festival.
I heard his mother say that Qiangzi and his brother-in-law contracted the project together, and there were more than 20 people under him, and he also made a lot of money in the past two years, rebuilt a house, and married a daughter-in-law to his brother-in-law.
The purpose of Qiangzi looking for him this time is a few childhood companions, who want to get together during the Chinese New Year.
This statement directly pulled him back to his long childhood.
At that time, they were carefree children, their families were not wealthy, and the childlike joy of the countryside is still endless when I think about it.
Digging birds up trees, fighting on horseback, chasing cattle and sheep, an iron ring, can run stupidly for several miles.
It was an age of innocence, filled with restlessness, which made them grow up ignorantly.
It's just that when they grow up, the pressure of work and life makes them run around all day long, and it is difficult to have the original feelings.
His experience in the past two years made him cherish the beauty of the past even more, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to find the sincerity of his childhood.
The time for the small gathering is set on the fifth day of the new year, and the folk have the custom of "breaking the five".
This word "broken" is to break all taboos, and from then on, the days are prosperous.
"Po Wu" must eat dumplings, must not cook with raw rice, and women are not allowed to visit the door.
The meeting place was booked in the largest hotel in the town, Wangxiang Upstairs.
At more than six o'clock, Zhao Yuankang came to this famous local hotel, and according to Qiangzi's information, he found a private room called "Changchun" on the second floor.
Hadron and a pot-bellied man have been waiting inside for a long time.
"Yo, this is Kangzi, do you remember me?" The fat man walked over heartily.
"Oh, you're Brother Xiong, right?" He looked at it a few times before he recognized the man.
The big bear in the neighboring village, who was two years taller than them, was the school's shot put record holder at that time, and he was very righteous, and he gave them a head start.
"Brother Xiong, you are lucky again, where are you getting rich?" He politely greeted the big bear.
"I'm not promising, I opened a store with a friend, and I'm making do with it." Big Bear lit a cigarette and introduced him.
"Yo, you're all here, it's late, it's late."
There was a commotion at the door, and three more people came, and Zhao Yuankang hurriedly got up and went to greet Qiangzi.
A thin man in a black coat, named Li Zhiqiang, is also a class partner, however, his family conditions are slightly better, his father is a craftsman, and he is a technical backbone in the factory, therefore, his family lives a relatively wealthy life, at that time, his family had a Xiaobawang game console, but it was the only one in the entire class.
A short and fat man with a round head and a round face, named Liu Yang, was a poor student in the class at the time, and was often left by the teacher to punish him.
The last person is a delicate and clean man, with exquisite facial features and fashionable dress, much like the rich and handsome who are popular in society.
This person's name is Wang Zhaohui, he has been frail and sickly since he was a child, but he is very good at dressing up, although his family is not rich, he always dresses neatly and decently.
"Everyone is here, the waiter serves the food, let's talk while eating." Qiangzi beckoned everyone to sit down and let Li Zhiqiang take the upper position.
"Come, let's raise a glass together first, I haven't seen each other for many years, it's rare."
The strong son raised his glass and killed it, and everyone was not polite, and drank it all.
"Here, Kangzi, I haven't been back for the past two years, so I'll give you a brief overview of everyone's current situation." Hadron smiled at him and began to introduce him.
"Let's talk about Brother Li first, now it's the deputy bureau of the county road administration department." He smiled and begged Li Zhiqiang.
The road administration is a fat poor, now the traffic is the throat of the main road, to hit this passing, leave to buy road money, just grab it, you can find out what is wrong with you, obediently break the wealth to avoid disasters.
He hurriedly toasted Li Zhiqiang, after all, he might be able to use others in the future.
"Liu Yang, now follow Boss Wang of the urban construction company, eat fragrant and spicy food, you have to go home to buy a house in the future, and find him to do it."
Zhao Yuankang felt a pang in his heart, although he went home few times, he had also heard of the name of Boss Wang, and he could be regarded as a black and white character.
Eighty percent of the real estate is occupied by him, forced to buy and sell, forced to demolish and build, no one can afford to provoke him, Liu Yang's current situation is to be a horse boy for him.
He also had a drink with Liu Yang, without showing a disdainful expression, the king of Hades is good, the little ghost is unstoppable, this kind of small role is still not offended.
"Zhaohui, it's not simple, now he is the business manager of Huangyuan Group, with an annual salary of 300,000 yuan, and a senior white-collar worker."
Zhao Yuankang looked at this beautiful man in surprise, feeling a little lost in his heart. At a young age, he can become a business manager of a listed group, and the annual salary is quite high, which makes him unreachable.
"By the way, Yasuko, what are you doing now?" After Qiangzi introduced everyone, he turned his head and asked him.
"I, ah, now Handan is doing education with my friends and serving as the director of teaching."
He didn't say that the school was his own, only that it was a director, first, he was relatively low-key, and second, he wanted to see everyone's performance.
"Kangzi, you're a private school, right? That's not good, it's troublesome and tiring, and you can't make money, but the teachers of regular big schools are guaranteed. Hadron comforted.
There is some truth in this, but he has his own ambitions, and not everyone understands them.
"Yes, Kangzi, it's not easy to mix outside, it's better to come back, work with my brother, you can come to my logistics, manage and manage, and give you five or six thousand a month."
Big Bear is a warm-hearted man who wants him to come home and help, and promises him a high salary.
He laughed secretly in his heart, this guy doesn't have any scheming, he has no intentions, but he has a higher pursuit, and he knows the ambition of the bird.
"Hey, what's so good about being a teacher, even if you can earn a few dollars in a regular national school, our middle school is still a national focus, you can't buy a house after decades, and you can only live in an old family building. It's boring. ”
Liu Yang shook his head and showed his ruffian form, which made him bored and wanted to kick him twice.
"Everyone has their own ambitions, Kangzi chose to do this, naturally he has his reasons, he is not like Liu Yang, you are a rough person, come, drink a bar."
It was Li Zhiqiang who was well-informed, spoke appropriately and thoughtfully, and turned this embarrassing topic lightly.
Wang Zhaohui never spoke, looking like he didn't care about himself, but he couldn't see through it.
