Chapter 43: A Dinner Treat
It's okay not to swear, but as soon as you swear, the more you look at it, the more it looks like you're hiding something, Chen Lihua showed an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Taking advantage of the gap when the nurse next to him came to pull out the needle, Chen Lihua asked: "This young man's medicine should be finished, right?" When will he be discharged from the hospital? β
The nurse glanced at Li Xueyang, recognized Li Xueyang's identity, and said with a kind smile: "The doctor gave him a comprehensive examination, but he was too excited and tired, and he took some nutrition to reduce inflammation, and now he is better." β
"If you want to be discharged, you can do it now."
Chen Lihua nodded, turned to look at Li Xueyang: "Brother, will you be free later?" β
"I'm going to be Dong today, so I'll invite you to have a meal to show my gratitude."
A leader invited him to dinner, and Li Xueyang was originally going to think about it, but his stomach was "cooing" angrily.
He raised his head and found that Chen Lihua also showed a "I understand" smile.
Li Xueyang was helpless, after he fell into a coma, he was lying in the hospital all the time, without eating anything, but he was hungry.
"Then I'll be respectful and obey my fate!"
Li Xueyang said with a smile.
"Let's go!"
The procedure for discharge from the hospital is very simple, everything is handled by Li Chunyan, and the fees are also paid by them, the little boy is slightly more injured than Li Xueyang, for the sake of insurance, he is ready to be discharged from the hospital the next day.
Li Xueyang and Chen Lihua walked out of the courtyard gate, and it was still raining lightly in the sky, and the sky was still covered by a layer of cloth, gray.
"What do you like to eat?"
Chen Lihua held up the umbrella and turned his head to ask.
"I can do it, the guest is as good as the host."
"It's a good guest to take care of, I have a familiar shop here, so you can come with me."
The two walked side by side and came to a small restaurant on the side of the road.
The restaurant is brightly lit, there is no menu, and you can only stand by the cupboard and order.
"Leader Chen, are you here? Let's see what to eat, there are new lettuce today, and the pork is also fresh. β
When the boss saw Chen Lihua, he greeted him quite warmly.
"It's still the same as the old three, fragrant dry fried meat, spicy shredded chicken, cold lettuce, by the way, let's have sweet and sour pork ribs, Lao Liu, the amount of pork ribs is enough."
Chen Lihua is obviously an old patron here, so he naturally explained.
When Li Xueyang saw this scene, he understood in his heart.
There are two kinds of people who don't like to go to luxury stores, one is sleek and cautious people, who are afraid of being caught by others, and deliberately go to some little-known small restaurants to eat.
The second is a good official who doesn't like extravagance and waste, and Li Xueyang prefers to believe that Leader Chen belongs to the second type of person.
The two men served the table, and there were no taboos, so they directly served the wine, a bottle of Lao Baigan, each poured a small glass, and waited for the dishes to be served.
Chen Lihua took the lead in raising his wine glass with both hands: "In the hospital just now, I used tea to honor you, and now I use wine to look more formal, I will now thank you again, thank you for saving my son." β
After speaking, he drained the small half glass of white wine in one gulp.
Hiss!
Li Xueyang gasped, he drank averagely, it can be seen that the leaders have done it, of course he can't be cowardly.
"Leader, thank you or something, I really don't need it, I have received your affection."
Li Xueyang also dried the wine in the cup in one gulp, and a spicy and pungent taste hit, Li Xueyang regretted it incomparably, this wine is really a bit spicy, and it seems that he has to drink it slowly.
"Haha, Brother Li, I don't usually drink when I see you, you can eat more food later, and you don't have to drink hard."
In fact, Li Xueyang's alcohol consumption is good, but because the original body usually can't even afford to eat, let alone drink, this body can't bear it at all, and the irritation is naturally greater, and the symptoms are more obvious.
But after the food came up, Li Xueyang enjoyed it, a mouthful of food, a pot of wine, Li Xueyang and the other party chatted with each other.
As a leader, Chen Lihua played the role of an elder, telling Li Xueyang about the rural entrepreneurship he had observed.
Li Xueyang listened patiently to the side like a treasure, one story after another, after telling it, Chen Lihua earnestly advised: "Anyway, no matter what, everything is difficult at the beginning, you must persevere, your Shanwan Village is a good place!" β
"The mountains and rivers are beautiful, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, it is a good place for outstanding people, and you will definitely have a good reward if you persevere."
"Don't worry, leader, I will definitely persevere."
Speaking of which, Chen Lihua's face was already red, and Li Xueyang was not bad, both of them looked a little drunk.
The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.
After drinking and chatting, Chen Lihua suddenly issued an invitation.
"It's better like this, Brother Li, I know that the road back to the village was smashed by stones, and there happens to be an empty room in my house, so you can go to my house for two days, and we just sincerely thank you, how about it?"
Li Xueyang immediately refused: "No, no, no, leader, I still have self-knowledge, the previous saving was just a gesture, and there was no need to make an inch." β
"And I've already contacted a classmate here, so I'll live with her."
As soon as he heard this, Chen Lihua admired Li Xueyang even more.
A person in a village had the opportunity to tie up, but he didn't do it, and ordinary people really don't have such determination.
"Okay, then I'll leave you a phone first, and you can call me if you have something."
Chen Lihua waved his hand, took paper and pen from the boss, and handed them to Li Xueyang after writing with brushes.
"Don't worry, there are some things you don't understand, you can come to me at any time, no matter what difficulties you encounter, you can come to me."
Li Xueyang was slightly overjoyed, took the note, and said, "Then thank you to Leader Chen." β
If you want to make a fortune, connections are also the top priority, Li Xueyang doesn't know which position Leader Chen has reached, but he also understands that there are many ways for more people.
And the other party was so polite, of course Li Xueyang was very grateful.
After the meal, Chen Lihua said a few more polite words, and then said goodbye directly, he still had to go back to the hospital to take care of the child.
And Li Xueyang's side, looking at the back of the other party's departure, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, sure enough, good people have good rewards, don't you just get a backer?
It's not necessarily useless, but it's much better than nothing.
"It's time for me to go home, too."
Li Xueyang muttered that his home was not in the county seat, and of course he went back to Huang Guixiang's house.
Half an hour later.
Li Xueyang, who was full of alcohol, came to the vicinity of Huang Guixiang's house in a leisurely manner, and he was looking for the faΓ§ade one by one.
"This old white guy is too powerful, so my brain is confused now."
He looked around, and suddenly found that a figure appeared in front of him, it was so familiar, and the other party also saw Li Xueyang, and was approaching step by step.
Until the nearest closer.
Li Xueyang recognized the identity of the other party clearly, Jin Xiuxiu!
