Chapter 5: Gratitude and Conflict
The weather is getting hotter, and people on the streets are starting to change into cool clothes.
Because Shuiyang County is located in a mountainous area, the temperature difference between day and night is large, even in the hottest season of the scorching summer, it is very hot during the day and cool at night, which makes summer the favorite of the people here. In the context of the great economic development of the country, a large number of new gadgets are also constantly pouring into this small city.
The existence of Xiaonanmen Business District has a long history, dating back to thousands of years ago, because of the special geographical location of Shuiyang County, which made the merchants here a famous channel for the transfer of materials between Shannan Province and Jiangbei Province.
Due to historical reasons, this good development was not continued, and because the planned national highway did not pass through the territory of Suyang. Since then, this traditional commercial transit center has gradually become scattered, and the natural weakness of being far away from the main transportation arteries has greatly weakened the economic development potential of Shuiyang.
Although the current Xiaonanmen business district is still the most prosperous place in the county, the old houses and unplanned infrastructure have gradually become a distribution center for night market partners.
When the time came to get off work, several people in the office left one after another, and Chen Youwei packed up his documents and prepared to leave.
"Xiao Chen, behave well at night!" Huang Ling joked with Chen Youwei with a smile, and left the office with a small bag and humming a little song.
Chen Youwei rubbed his nose, laughing in his heart, these guys in the office really thought that they had something to do with Li Mengmeng.
For this kind of dinner party that can make Wang Fatzi ecstatic, Chen Youwei seems very calm, and now he has a bigger goal in mind. It's not that the children's private affairs don't mean that they don't have a little thought, but if they completely lose their characterization like Wang Fatzi, it will be too unprincipled.
As for climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, Chen Youwei's heart is full of disdain, whether it is him in another world, or now he is the kind of guy who is full of arrogance in his heart. If he really climbed up by hugging the woman's thighs, not to mention that he couldn't do it himself, it made him feel that this practice was too spineless when he thought about it.
The shadow of the girl named Miao Miao flashed in his mind, and thinking of the intimate contact of artificial respiration for that girl at that time, Chen Youwei licked his tongue unconsciously. This girl is actually really good-looking, hehe, when I rescued her ashore, I seemed to have a lot of material on her.
Hey, when did you become so colorful?
Chen Youwei patted his head, it seems that he is being influenced by another self more and more.
With the advent of summer, the days gradually grew, and when Chen Youwei appeared at the small south gate, it was already more than six o'clock, and the red sunset had not completely descended. The small South Gate street, which was not wide, has been occupied by many barbecue shops, and the street at this time has completely become a pedestrian street, and it is a lively scene under the crowd.
Chen Youwei has been in Shuiyang County for more than half a year, but there is no record of spending here once. Being ungenerous and frugal is one aspect, judging from the fact that he is immersed in work and seems to have no background, there is really no one who treats him differently on weekdays.
Standing in the noisy crowd of Xiaonanmen, Chen Youwei secretly exhaled a breath of turbidity, it seemed that he had really thought about something wrong. It's good to work hard, but you don't know how to look up at the road when you only walk with your head down, and you don't even understand the colleagues around you thoroughly and integrate with your work environment. If you continue like this, no matter how good your work is, you are isolated by the team intentionally or unintentionally, even if you work hard, the leader can't see it or the leader thinks you don't fit in, so it doesn't matter to you, so what can you do?
Seeing Li Mengmeng, the little pepper, sitting in front of a stall and waving to him from a distance, Chen Youwei sorted out his mood and walked over calmly.
The long hair fluttering last time was replaced by a simple ponytail, and Miao Miao, who was wearing jeans and a white top, was nodding to him with a smile.
"It's really slow, Miao Miao and I have been waiting for a while." Li Mengmeng hummed without concealment.
Miao Miao ignored Li Mengmeng's nonsense, reached out and shook Chen Youwei's hand and said politely: "I'm He Miao, I really thank you very much for saving your life last time." ”
Chen Youwei said with a smile: "In that situation, everyone will react the same way, so you're welcome." ”
"Okay, okay, don't be so sour," Li Mengmeng beckoned everyone to sit down and said with a grin: "Originally, according to my intentions, find a restaurant to treat you Chen Youwei well, but you know that Miao Miao is a girl, and the matter of falling into the water is not easy to publicize......"
Chen Youwei nodded in agreement, the poorer the place, the fewer cultural and entertainment projects, and any topic can be rendered into something earth-shattering. God knows what will happen to a small incident of falling into the water? It's okay if it's a big man, if a young girl like Miao Miao is rumored, it's really bad.
He Miao said apologetically: "I originally wanted to come over to thank you earlier, but I still got cold that day......
Chen Youwei waved his hand and said, "You are too polite, how is your body?" It's all right, is it? ”
"Thank you for reminding me at the time, it was just a slight cold, otherwise I would still be lying in the hospital." He Miao still had palpitations when he thought of the scene of falling into the water at that time.
"Okay, okay, everyone is young, where is so long-winded." Li Meng is very active by nature, and he is most unaccustomed to these red tape: "Boss, grill ten yuan meat skewers, ten yuan chicken wings, and ten yuan tofu skewers......"
"Ask Chen Youwei for two more bottles of beer......" He Miao said understandingly.
"Oh oh, boss, two more bottles of beer, two bottles of soda......" Li Mengmeng replied again and again.
Chen Youwei said with a smile: "Since that's the case, then I'm welcome, I heard that this Liu Ji barbecue is very famous, I'll try it later." ”
The thin boss next to him smiled when he heard this: "My brother is right, my barbecue is the earliest barbecue shop in this small south gate, with first-class craftsmanship and first-class taste. ”
Everyone is a young person, and they have a previous relationship, Chen Youwei soon Li Mengmeng and He Miao, two delicate beauties, talked and laughed.
Li Mengmeng is still the lively and active little pepper, perhaps because Chen Youwei is very pleasing to the eye, and he sells his friends three times and five times. Although she was vague in the key places, Chen Youwei was able to deduce that this calm and introverted He Miao must have a good family background.
Thinking that day He Miao personally drove the Santana with the name of Yicheng City, Chen Youwei thought thoughtfully.
Li Mengmeng is a graduate of Yicheng Normal School, with a technical secondary school degree, and has been working for several years, and he is also a small intellectual at this time in 91. It's just that she didn't become a teacher according to her ideals, according to her family, she was originally an old child who couldn't grow up, and if she wanted to mix with a group of children, she would really become a child king who would never grow up.
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, Li Mengmeng did not screw her family in the end, and finally went to work in the county finance bureau.
He Miao did not graduate from Yicheng Normal School, but he lived in Shanyang with his parents for a period of time, and had the experience of being classmates in middle school with Li Mengmeng for two years. When Li Mengmeng was going to Yicheng Normal School, He Miao had already followed her parents to live in Yicheng, but it happened that she was also in college with a major in finance and accounting at Yicheng Normal College.
Listening to Li Mengmeng twittering in front of him showing off the deep friendship with He Miao, Chen Youwei felt warm in his heart, this kind of friendship relationship without interest factors is naturally the longest-lasting, and it is also what adults who grow up to desire but can't get.
Chen Youwei always kept a low profile during the whole chat, just like working in the unit, listening more and talking less, after all, it was the first time he had contact with the other party. But perhaps it was his calm performance that made him clearly feel He Miao's glance at him flashing with appreciation.
The night was completely dark, and the business of the whole small south gate became more and more prosperous, and the whole street was crowded with people from a distance, and there were not many vacant seats.
The skewers were quickly served, and Chen Youwei was not polite, picking up the barbecue and feasting on it.
Li Mengmeng glanced at him, as if he was laughing at Chen Youwei, who was simply a foodie.
Seeing that Chen Youwei was about to finish the barbecue, Li Mengmeng, who was also a carnivore, was willing, and got up to grab it with Chen Youwei. accidentally knocked over the beer on the table, and the beer bottle that had been opened spit white beer foam, which splashed on the trouser leg of the person behind him.
"Oops, stinky, look at it!" A disgusting voice rang out.
Li Mengmeng, who was embarrassed to apologize when she stuck out her tongue, heard that the other party was indiscriminately swearing, her angry little face was pink, and her hands were on her hips: "How did you speak?" You're a stinky, your whole family is a stinky! ”
Several young people on the barbecue table stood up at the hula, looking at their flowing dress, Chen Youwei frowned, this little pepper is a little impulsive.
"Yohe, this little sister, how do you know that I'm a stinky, it's hard for you to check it yourself, hahaha!" A little yellow hair saw Li Mengmeng and He Miao's two beauties, and her eyes suddenly widened a lot, damn it, a stunning beauty! It's a bastard if you don't take advantage of it!
"Hahaha!" The people started to laugh.
Li Meng trembled with anger, she was a little overwhelmed as she had never encountered such a scene. He Miao, who was beside him, saw that the situation was not good, and after paying the bill, he pulled Li Mengmeng and prepared to leave, anyway, it was not early, and they were almost finished.
"Ho, I want to go, where is it so easy, I see that I don't have these pants, but I just bought them from the south, and I will leave again if I lose them!" The little yellow hair was already in the mood for a long time, where was he willing to let the two big beauties slip away like this.
Chen Youwei stood up and said lightly: "Don't talk nonsense with me, go home and wash yourself." ”
signaled He Miao and Li Mengmeng to leave, Chen Youwei was too lazy to talk to these unpopular gangsters.
Xiao Huangmao was furious, punched Chen Youwei in the face, and scolded in his mouth: "Look for death, boy!" ”
Chen Youwei grabbed Xiao Huangmao's wrist, and smiled lightly: "There's something to say, isn't it?!" ”
Everyone else thought that Chen Youwei was begging for mercy, but only the little yellow hair with a red face knew that he was suffering, and under the other party's thick big hand, he only felt a sharp pain in his wrist.
"Ah, yes, yes, I have something to say......" Little Yellow Mao almost didn't cry.
At this time, even a blind man could see that something was wrong, and the faces of several people behind Xiao Huang Mao changed greatly, and they naturally didn't expect that Xiao Huang Mao, who was the most capable of fighting, was actually cleaned up by someone else's arm, and it was so silent.
A few people, you look at me, I look at you, eager to try, but retreat and dare not step forward.
