Chapter 24 Want to report to Qiong Yaosi for a banquet
It was almost noon, the sun was shining brightly, and it was a hot July day. It was really too hot, but there were green trees on the grape trellis, so it was extremely cool under the grape trellis. Xue Xiang fell asleep while leaning on the wicker chair, or
The little guy took a piece of mulberry leaf and scratched his nose, waking him up. Xue Xiang opened his eyes and saw the little guy looking at him with a smile like a flower.
"It's time to eat, brother. Second sister has already prepared the meal. Why don't you go to bed after eating."
"Baby, what are you cooking for lunch?"
"A big bowl of twice-cooked pork, a big steamed chicken, a plate of mixed cucumbers, a small green vegetable, and a big bowl of tomato and egg soup. They are all my favorites."
"Baby, I don't want to move. You can help me fill it up and bring it over, okay?"
"Okay, I will also move here to eat with my eldest brother. It is much cooler here than in the house." After saying that, he shook his fleshy little body and went. The little guy is much plumper than before. During this time, he has eaten a lot of fish, meat and candy.
, cookies, chocolate, and milk. Xue Xiang is really a little afraid that the little guy will grow into a fat little girl.
Xue Xiang didn't wait long when he saw Xiao Wan and three others coming together with dishes. Xue Xiang quickly cleared the little guy's desk, then stepped forward to take the soup bowl in Xiao Yi's hand and the roast chicken in the little guy's hand.
When they came over, a few people moved small chairs and started to enjoy lunch under the grape trellis. After eating a few mouthfuls, they saw Kang Xiaoba, Xu Xiaofei and Chen Fosheng coming hand in hand. They came to deliver stamps to Xue Xiang.
.
Ever since Xue Xiang told a group of people in Beicheng to help him collect the four stamps last time, I don’t know how the news spread. The die-hard masters in Forty-Nine City all knew that the third brother was looking for these stamps, so, hula
Well, everyone started to help find him. Originally, a few cents for a stamp was not enough to buy a good cigarette. How could a cigarette be enough to get to know the third brother? In this way,
Almost every day, people came to deliver stamps, regardless of whether the ones they collected were what Xue Xiang wanted. Anyway, if they came, it would be a favor, and they could start a friendship next time they met. This made Xue Xiang's family uneasy. Xue Xiang hurriedly sent a few messages.
The boss asked them to keep the stamps of each brother and write down their names, and have a drink to thank them another day. Just yesterday, after Xue Xiang got the stamps back,
Let the bosses spread the word that the stamps have been found, and there will be a banquet tomorrow night to thank them. Today, Kang Xiaoba and the others came to deliver the stamps for the last time, and according to Xue Xiang's instructions, they came over to discuss how to set up the banquet. Chen Fosheng came over and did the same.
Lei Xiaotian invited him to get together several times before he left. Later, when he heard what stamps Xue Xiang was looking for, he simply posted a notice at the University of Science and Technology of China.
, told him which stamps he wanted, and he would be rewarded a hundred times the face value of the stamps if they were delivered. As a result, he received a lot. This time Xue Xiang held a banquet, so he naturally had to come and get busy.
This is a great opportunity, and there are many big brother-level stubborn people among them. As long as I stand next to the third brother and show my face, who in the Four-Nine City will dare to catch me as a Buddha in the future.
Xue Xiang put down the bowl, threw a pack of cigarettes to the three of them, and asked them if they had eaten. A few of them couldn't say anything, so Xue Xiang knew that they must not have eaten. Thinking about it, Beicheng was not close to his home, so Kang Xiao
How could Ba and Xu Xiaofei have time to eat? But Chen Fosheng was a promiscuous person who could eat whenever he was hungry.
Son, I must not have thought of eating at this moment. Xue Xiang said: "Don't be so polite to me. Sitting down to eat without eating is very unpleasant. Fosheng, this is not the first time you have eaten at my house. Why are you being so coquettish?"
Get up and go to the kitchen to get the dishes and chairs. I won’t drink at noon, and I’ll save my stomach for drinking at night.”
Xue Xiang turned to Xiaowan again and said: "Xiaowan, there is definitely not enough food. Bring over the meat buns and fried dough sticks from the morning. It's hot, so don't overheat it. It's good to eat it cold." I bought too much breakfast in the morning.
, a large part of it was prepared for Kang Tong. Who knew that this kid got up late and was busy at work, so he took a fried dough stick and went out...
When the three of them saw that Xue Xiang had spoken, they stopped being polite. Chen Fosheng had eaten at Xue Xiang's house and knew where the kitchen was, so he led the two of them into the kitchen. Seeing that Chen Fosheng was so familiar with it, Xue Xiang asked him to put the buns in the cabinet
Bring it along with the fried dough sticks to save Xiaowan a lot of trouble.
Everyone sat down, and the small desk was already full. Only the little guy occupied a corner, put the bowl on it, and was gnawing on the chicken legs. As soon as a few people picked up the bowls, they heard the door ringing again, and then they heard the jingling of bells.
The bicycle bell sounds. It turns out that Kang Tong, Lei Xiaotian and Zhu Shijun are here. Kang Tong and Lei Xiaotian are wearing police uniforms
, wearing police hats, both of them are tall men, dressed in short-sleeved police uniforms, looking majestic, high-spirited, and full of heroism. Several of them were carrying things in their hands, which they bought at the state-owned delicatessen in Lao Tianqiao.
Braised food, I was going to have a dinner at Xue Xiang’s house at noon, but I didn’t know that I had to wait in line for a long time, and everyone was eaten here.
Three more people joined in. The small desk was obviously not enough. Lei Xiaotian went into the main room and moved the square table that he usually used for breakfast. It was brought back by Sun Qian last time. He added bowls and chopsticks, and placed four more tables.
A big plate of braised vegetables, pig ears, small sausages, fragrant pig's feet, and peanuts. As soon as the table was served, there were several people with rice in front of them. Zhu Shijun was not happy and shouted: "What's wrong with a few big men just eating?"
Son, third brother, please serve the wine."
Chen Fusheng took over and said: "Brother Zhu, third brother is having a banquet tonight. It's better to have fun tonight." Kang Xiaoba and Xu Xiaofei quite agreed with Zhu Shijun's opinion. They hadn't eaten so richly in some days, and they saw such fat pig ears.
, the alcohol bug in their hearts has long been ready to start. However, they are self-aware, and Xue Xiang and others have not yet reached that point, so they endured and did not speak.
Zhu Shijun said: "I know about the banquet. We have to have fun in the evening, but we can't let the fun break at noon, right? Wouldn't this be a waste of such good pig ears and peanuts? These good things are bought specifically to go with wine.
, we queued for a long time to buy it, how can we just eat it? Also, don’t
"Brother Zhu, Brother Zhu," others didn't know. They thought you were called Second Senior Brother, Brother Jun." After saying that, Zhu Shijun asked Kang Tong for the key and went into the house to get some wine. After getting rich, Xue Xiang was very happy.
I bought a lot of good cigarettes and wine and put them in Kang Tong's room. If any of the six of them were out of stock, they would go in and replenish it themselves.
After a while, Zhu Shijun came out with two bottles of Maotai. As he walked, he said: "There are seven of us. Let's drink less at noon. Let's just moisten our mouths with these two bottles of wine. After all, we have to listen to the third brother's arrangements for the banquet in the afternoon."
Son."
When Chen Fusheng saw Zhu Shijun taking out the wine, he rushed into the kitchen to find a wine glass. This kid had wanted to drink for a long time. The deliberate reminder just now was his way of provoking the generals. Now his plan was sold and he ran faster than anyone else.
The meal didn't last long, and the two bottles of wine were almost gone after a few clinks. After eating, a few people helped Xiaowan pack her things, and then they smoked under the grape trellis, enjoyed the coolness, and discussed the evening.
It’s about the banquet. The little guy was full and a little sleepy. He didn’t want to get tired of Xue Xiang in the hot weather, so he went back to Xue Xiang’s room to take a nap. Xiaoyi and her sister also went back to the room to do their summer homework.
.
"Third brother, how many people are coming tonight and how many tables do you think we should set up?" The speaker was Xu Xiaofei. After being punished by Xue Xiang that time, he became much more honest. Later, he came to Xue Xiang's house to deliver stamps several times.
, gradually I became less afraid of Xue Xiang. After being in contact with him for a long time, I felt that Xue Xiang was quite easy to talk to.
Quite reasonable and gentle-tempered, Xu Xiaofei couldn't understand how the eldest brother in the naughty circle could act like a scholar. For this reason, he also began to imitate Xue Xiang and worked hard to be a hierarchical naughty person, talking to Hou Xiaochun and others on weekdays.
There was no fuss anymore, even the chestnuts were rewarded less. Hou Xiaochun and the others thought they were big
Fei Ge had not recovered from the last blow, so he took him to the hospital for a check-up. Xu Xiaofei gently said that he was fine and that he was trying to learn to be a tasteful boss. When he said this, Hou Xiaochun, Ji Changfa and the others
Even more worried, a group of people carried Xu Xiaofei and rushed to the health center.
, Xu Xiaofei complained bitterly to no avail. Suddenly, he broke away from the restraints of several people angrily, and each of them rewarded several big chestnuts. Xu Xiaofei's desire to be a tasteful and hierarchical stubborn man was killed. Every time when he dreamed back at midnight, Xu Xiaofei
Tears streaming down my face: It’s not that I’m too bad, it’s that the world is changing too fast…
Lei Xiaotian took over and said: "How many tables? Add ten after the number to see if it is enough. The bosses of various circles in the four cities and eight districts must get it. The brothers who have sent stamps must be invited, and there are also some friends who have been cared for by the third brother.
Come on, it’s hard to say how many people will come now. When people come, we can’t rush them out.”
Xue Xiang also scratched his head for a while. It was not good to have too many social contacts. It was not good to miss anyone during the treat. He was a little tangled for a while.
Seeing that Xue Xiang was in a dilemma, Kang Xiaoba hurriedly offered advice: "Third brother, I don't think you need to be upset. Anyway, the news about your banquet has been spread, and those who are supposed to come will come naturally. There is no need to post.
Those who have sent stamps must also
We're here, your friends must have heard about it. We'll decide on the place for the treat later and let the wind go." Kang Xiaoba was quite familiar with welcoming and sending off, socializing and entertaining, so he was stubborn about this.
The process of hosting a guest is all about clearing the door.
Xue Xiang listened to Kang Xiaoba's words clearly and said with a smile: "Okay, Xiaoba, okay, let's do it like this. The location has been decided. The old factory of Hualian Woodenware Factory is at Hufang Bridge at the entrance of my alley.
South Road. The old factory area of Hualian Woodware Factory has long been abandoned.
There is an original office hall inside which is very spacious, about 500 to 600 square meters. It is very clean and has thirty or forty tables set up without any problems. I have already said hello to Sun Qianjin and his uncle, and after the arrangements are made,
Let’s go over there and arrange it.”
Chen Fosheng was stunned when he heard this. Why didn't he go to the restaurant for dinner and go to the woodwork factory? He asked curiously: "Third brother, why don't you set up a restaurant? What are you doing there? Are you in a hurry? If so, I'll steal it from the old man."
Yes, he locks his money tightly, but where can I find it difficult to lock it?" After saying that, he looked at it triumphantly.
Looking at the crowd, he suddenly found that everyone's expressions were wrong, especially Kang Xiaoba and Xu Xiaofei's expressions of contempt. They also moved the chairs that were some distance away from them to one side, as if they were ashamed to be in their company. Chen Fusheng felt very worried.
I'm confused, I don't know where I said something wrong, but I'm very loyal.
