"Brother Jin, I'm waiting for you, come, let's meet for the first time, we have to have a few drinks. ”

Li Jing is worthy of being an old Jianghu, and he said this with a smile as soon as he came up...... This is not close to being cheeky - before, Jin San was lukewarm to him, and he didn't have the natural laughter and laughter of Ma Hongji at all. Moreover, the content of this passage makes people embarrassed to refuse when they listen to it - after all, Ma Hongji is here, and everyone hasn't torn their faces, right?

Jin San was obviously stunned for a moment, and then, although he only smiled faintly, he did not refuse, but sat on Li Jing's right hand...... Li Jing and Ma Hongji sat side by side in the main seat, and according to the seating rules at the banquet, Jin San, as Ma Hongji's henchman, should sit under Ma Hongji.

Therefore, from this point of view, as long as Jin San is willing to sit under Li Jing, it means that Jin San is willing to resolve the hatred between each other. Whether he is sincere or just looking at Ma Hongji's face, at least on the surface...... In layman's terms, this is a tactful and cautious temptation between each other.

After everyone sat down, Ma Hongji, as the patriarch, or as the master here, should toast first.

stood up, raised his wine glass, and smiled at everyone: "In the past, Ma was used to eating first and then drinking, but because Ma was fortunate to have a drink with Lao Li today, he was very happy...... Brothers, this first glass of wine, respect for Lao Li's sincerity, only today's reunion, so, this first glass of wine, everyone respects Lao Li together. ”

"Cheers!"

After drinking the first glass of wine, Ergazi poured wine for everyone with great eyesight.

Everyone also took this time and hurried to eat two bites of food...... It's early in the morning, and everyone knows that drinking on an empty stomach is not good for your health. It's better, it's a big deal to endure it, but it's very easy to get drunk when you drink on an empty stomach. If you get drunk here, it will be a shame - in this era, many people will think that people who drink happily must also have a straightforward personality. A person who drinks a lot of alcohol must also be a good man. What's the matter if you get drunk as soon as you get drunk?

"This second glass of wine, toast to the fate that we can get together today!"

"Cheers!"

"This third glass of wine, I salute the happy cooperation in the future, and clean up the little devils together. ”

Li Jing also smiled: "Lao Ma's words have gone to my heart, come, do it!"

After three glasses of wine, everyone began to eat and drink.

During this period, Li Jing also took the initiative to find something to talk to Jin San. And Jin San's attitude is obviously better than before, at least, whether it is out of coping or really accepting Li Jing's kindness, anyway, he has been smiling, but maybe it is out of character, his words are relatively few, most of the time Li Jing is talking.

A few minutes later, when everyone was half-full after eating and drinking, as the representative of the guests, Li Jing naturally stood up with a wine glass and said, "This first glass of wine, first of all, we must respect the old horse." ”

Hearing this, Ma Hongji picked up his wine glass and stood up with a smile...... As the representative of the guest, the person who is designated to toast is not only to give face to the host, but also a kind of respect and courtesy.

"Lao Ma, thank you for your understanding, and thank you for your support and help...... I won't say much thanks, it's all in this glass of wine, dry!"

"!"

The two clinked glasses and drank all the wine in the glasses.

Li Jing poured himself a glass of wine and turned to face Jin San.

"Brother Jin, Lao Li, I am a happy person, and what I did to be sorry for you and my fellow villagers back then is the thing that Lao Li regrets the most in my life...... But now that the matter has come to this, Lao Li doesn't know what to do to get forgiveness from you and the villagers...... I will make amends to you here in front of Lao Ma and your brothers. In the future, wherever I can use Li Jing, as long as it does not violate the rules of our party and army, I will never shirk it. ”

Speaking of this, Li Jing pondered a little and said, "If you can forgive me, just toast with me." If you are still uncomfortable, it means that my Lao Li's sincerity is not enough, and I have to continue to work hard. ”

After speaking, Li Jing held the wine glass, looked at Jin San, and waited for Jin San's reply...... In the end, it is an old Jianghu, although the words seem to be straightforward, but the way of speaking is extremely old-fashioned: first self-blame and honesty, then apologize, and finally euphemistic persecution: in front of everyone, Jin San wants to reject Li Jing's kindness, which will leave people with the impression of being narrow and not knowing how to lift. In this way, no matter how unhappy he is in his heart, it is not good to refuse in front of everyone, especially in front of Ma Hongji. After all, Li Jing was brought by Ma Hongji, and to put it bluntly, Ma Hongji is now a peacemaker, so Ma Hongji also smiled and said nothing about Li Jing's clever use of this to resolve this time, after all, he promised to help Li Jing and find a breakthrough from Jin San.

After glancing at Ma Hongji, Jin San put away his smile and looked at Li Jing for the first time.

"Camp Commander Li, I understand what you mean, and I also feel your sincerity, but Jin San's leg is actually nothing, I just want to ask one word now, and I hope you can give the truth. ”

No matter what you ask, I, Li Jing, will never have the slightest expiration date. ”

"Are you really here to protect our Majiapo Village to deal with the little devils, or do you have another purpose?"

"Brother Jin, in this kind of big matter, I swear to you, I'm afraid you won't believe it. In this way, I will give you an analysis. If the analysis is correct, let's drink this glass of wine, and if my analysis is not correct, you can just splash me...... Let's sit down and talk slowly. ”

"Personally, if you had asked me what I thought about the events of that year before I joined the revolution more than half a year ago, to be honest, I would have told you that I would never have any remorse, because I was still a bandit at that time, and since I was a bandit, robbery was a profession, so where did I have any regrets? Besides, a manly man, what he did is what he did, and if he lived for a lifetime, he could not live for a hundred years, and he could not leave a stench for 10,000 years, then he could only want to be happy for a lifetime. ”

Speaking of this, Li Jing picked up his wine glass and took a sip of wine before continuing: "However, since I joined the revolution, received the party's education, and the example of comrades who set an example, I have come to understand a truth: When a person lives, he cannot just live for his own pleasure and ignore the life and death of others, otherwise, he will not become a beast? In the past six months, my experience can be described as earth-shaking changes, and I have always asked myself about the events of that year, and I have indeed done a very bad job, and I am very sorry for the villagers in this area...... So, personally, I do regret it. ”

"From a business point of view, the little devil really doesn't treat us Chinese as human beings, and burning, killing, looting and doing all kinds of evil. To put it mildly, it was even more desperate than when we were bandits, and it simply didn't give all of us a way to live. Since the little devil doesn't give us a way to live, then we naturally can't sit still, we have to resist, we have to fight, we have to fight, we have to drive the little devil away, like this...... Wait a minute, I think about it. By the way, this is what our political commissar said to us: 'Even if it is not for yourself, you must fight to the end with the little devils for the sake of your children and grandchildren not to be enslaved by the little devils.'" ’......”

"Brother Jin, to be honest, although I regret it, I really don't have the courage to come back to the village, especially when I see the people in the village who were harmed by us at that time, and now look at me with such hatred, I feel really uncomfortable. However, the military orders are like a mountain, and the situation requires it, so I, Li Jing, have to bite the bullet...... Therefore, I must come, both in public and private, not only to make up for the events of the past, but also for the future of future generations. ”

After speaking, seeing that everyone was looking at each other, Li Jing smiled bitterly and said to Jin San: "I said so, do you understand?"

"Understood!" After Jin San sighed, he patted his right thigh and said: "Even if my leg is still intact, even if I go to the battlefield to fight the little devils, I'm afraid I won't do better than you, and there is no way to protect the villagers, let alone avenge the two people who were slaughtered by the little devils." ”

"Don't talk about that. Come, Camp Commander Li, I respect you. He stood up with a wine glass and said to Li Jing.

"No! no, this glass of wine should be my toast to you. ”

"Let's not talk about what happened back then, as long as you can fight devils, don't talk about this leg, even if this life is gone, it's worth it. Saying that, Jin San took the initiative to touch a glass with Li Jing, and after drinking it all, he lit up the empty wine glass to Li Jing, and saw that Li Jing was still a little surprised to look over, Jin San smiled and said: "My cup of wine is to honor you heroes who fight devils, Camp Commander Li won't even give this face, right?"

As soon as he heard this, Li Jing immediately drank it all, and also lit up the empty wine glass to Jin Sanyi.

Immediately, both of them smiled at the same time, and finally they both burst out laughing.

Ma Hongji applauded happily, then picked up his wine glass, stood up and said to everyone: "Let's not pay any attention to etiquette today. Come, everyone raised their glasses, for the sincerity of the Li Jing brothers, for the generosity of the three Jin brothers, for the sincere unity in the future, and for the sake of being able to beat the little devils away as soon as possible, everyone has done this glass together!"

"!"

At this moment, the atmosphere on the wine table was finally normal, and the atmosphere was lively.

Jin San let go of his grievances and talked more, not only took the initiative to ask Li Jing if he needed help, but also offered to help Li Jing persuade the villagers to let go of the past grievances as soon as possible and unite to deal with the little devils as soon as possible. After all, everyone knows that now everyone not only has a common enemy, but also the most important enemy with their own life and death - the little devil is close at hand.

Really!

At noon that day, when Li Jing brought people and gifts to apologize to Jin San, in front of everyone, Jin San was very cooperative and not only accepted the apology generously, but also persuaded everyone in public......

In this way, the opening of this breakthrough makes the rest of the things much easier.

Although there are still a very small number of people who did not accept the apology, but, as analyzed by Li Jing, in front of everyone, these very few people still accepted the apology, or rather, had to accept it.

The matter has finally come to an end, and the stone that has been pressing on the hearts of Li Jing and others has almost been dispersed, and the next thing is how to fight devils together.

......
