210 hundred pulpits
After I was discharged from the hospital, I went to the company first, arranged my recent work, and by the way, I also went to Zeng Yongshan to express my gratitude. Zeng Yongshan said that you are my Zhuge Liang, these things should be.
When I got back, I called Qian Haiping again and told him my arrangements for the issue of the shares of the bookstore. Qian Haiping really spoke in an official tone, greeted him lightly, and said that he had no opinion on my arrangement like this. Finally, I also mentioned Guo Ming's marriage, and he said that he knew about it, and he would naturally send a congratulatory gift when the time came.
Since I refused to do the planning work for him, Qian Haiping and I have indeed become much colder. It's hard for me to imagine Qian Haiping drinking and having fun in the author's house.
When I got home, she forced me to take a strange potion and pill, saying it was a cure for neuropathic headaches. This medicine is obviously imported, and the full package is in German, and I can't understand it, but I guess that the price should be expensive. I just hate that I don't have the Internet, I can't just "Google" it, and I don't know what kind of medicine this is. In short, only obediently take medicine.
New Year's Day in 1995 came, and five full years later, I still live in the past, and I am used to this life.
Guo Ming and Cai Xiaohong's wedding was held before New Year's Day.
The wedding was held in a small hotel, and there were not too many tricks in those days, and my Santana became a wedding car and carried Cai Xiaohong to the hotel.
Before leaving, the Bao Mansion became Cai Xiaohong's temporary maiden home, Cai Xiaohong took her mother and sister to Hangzhou, and when this haggard woman stood in front of me, looking ten years older than her actual age, she looked down and smiled shyly, I couldn't imagine that she was Cai Xiaohong's mother. Her sister looks healthier and taller than Xiaohong, but both of them are too shy, and they hardly said more than three words after arriving at the Bao Mansion, and they just nodded their heads when others said anything.
Lina took Cai Xiaohong to the hairdresser next to her to put on makeup and hair, and by the time Xiaohong came back, she had already been made into a super beauty. In the past, when I saw Cai Xiaohong, I never thought she was good-looking, but on today's special day, the heartfelt joy and satisfaction made her exude a delicate and moving charm, and a faint flush appeared on her face as if she was shrouded in a halo of love.
I looked dumbfounded for a moment, staring intently at the bride in front of me. Cai Xiaohong was frightened by my stupid gaze, and her face turned even redder with shame.
Bao Lina gritted her silver teeth on the side, pulled my sleeve, and shouted in a low voice: "Do you like to look at other people's wives so much?"
I came back to my senses and hurriedly smirked and said, "I can't recognize it all of a sudden, how could I be so beautiful." ”
"Is it a crime to be pretty?" Bao Lina said angrily.
What suddenly came to my mind was when I first met Cai Xiaohong four years ago, she stood beside me and shyly asked me about the scene when the Literary Club signed up for the competition. In a flash, Xiaohong was already about to get married. And the little girl who used to write novels silently in the literary club has never seen her write any literary genre anymore.
Literature has left her.
Come to think of it, I haven't written anything in a long time.
Perhaps it should be said that literature has left us.
Guo Ming's ex-wife has gone abroad again, so the small house was left to Guo Ming, she only took her daughter and went abroad to seek better treatment, this ending is a reasonable result for Guo Ming, his ex-wife, and even their daughter.
Now Guo Ming can only use that small house as a wedding room, although in fact he and Cai Xiaohong have lived in that small house for a short period of time.
I drank a lot of alcohol at the wedding, although Paulina kept interfering with my drinking, explicitly and implicitly. I am very surprised that Bao Lina used to be like a boy, and she didn't have any big scruples about drinking like the ancient writers and writers. But now I seem to be afraid of drinking, and I don't drink it, and I won't let it drink.
She whispered in my ear, "The doctor said that drinking might have something to do with neuralgia, and you're going to have to drive me back later." ”
When it comes to driving, I had an epiphany that driving under the influence of alcohol is a no-no-no. So after chatting casually with Guo Ming, he was in a hurry to leave. At this time, Qian Haiping appeared, he was a whole circle fatter than before, his hair was cut short, his spirit was very strong, and he felt that he did have a bit of official authority compared to before.
Qian Haiping greeted Guo Ming and Cai Xiaohong very blandly, looking a little lazy, I thought to myself, if you don't like to come, why bother to bring this expression.
Thinking of that time in the revolving restaurant, Qian Haiping was really not as good as before.
When Qian Haiping walked in, he saw Bao Lina with a sweep of his eyes, and immediately pulled out his legs and walked towards us. It seems that in that revolving restaurant, the person who impressed him the most was Baozi.
"It's Bao Lina, right?" He smiled enthusiastically and came up to shake Lina's hand, but when he stretched out his hand, he couldn't retract it, but Lina just nodded lightly and didn't mean to get up.
Qian Haiping had no choice but to turn his hand to me halfway, put his arm around my shoulders and pretended to be enthusiastic: "Hey Old Zhou, I haven't seen you for a long time." No, look at my memory, now I'm going to call Mr. Zhou. ”
I said, "Old Qian, you are too foreign, and you don't know what your brother's name is." I heard that you are going to be promoted, congratulations. ”
"This, what's the matter," a hint of pride flashed across Qian Haiping's fat face, "There is no shadow yet, don't spread it." ”
As he spoke, he shouted that he wanted to drink with me, saying that he would not return home if he was not drunk. I said I'd drive Lina home later.
Qian Haiping pulled the service lady over regardless of it, and insisted on two bottles of red wine. I wonder how this kid suddenly became so enthusiastic.
After reluctantly having a drink with him, Qian Haiping said that he was now holding the Hangzhou Writers PEN Club in the name of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, saying that he wanted to invite some big names to come to Hangzhou to hold the largest PEN Club in history, or a forum.
"It won't be a hundred pulpits, right?" I said with a sneer.
"What? Hundred pulpits?" Hearing the name I said casually, Qian Haiping's eyes lit up, "Yes, yes, your old Zhou is really a talent." ”
His eyes glanced at Bao Lina again: "What does Miss Bao think?"
"Very good, a hundred forums, a hundred schools of thought. How's that slogan?" Bao Lina cast a gentle and warm gaze at me.
I laughed and said, "I'm joking, talking nonsense, I'll punish myself." ”
I was about to raise my glass when Lina shot at me with a warning look, and then lowered it again.
It is really ashamed to steal the name of the Hundred Pulpits of Later Generations. However, Qian Haiping said very proudly: "It's so decided, it's called the Hundred Schools' Forum, and then there will be a subtitle, it's called West Lake on the Sword, haha, it's perfect!"
Yes, it's perfect, and ten years later, two names were pirated and used by us in advance, and it's not perfect?
