After Chu Heng came over, he played with Xu Jingshu for a while. Qiu Rong, the guesthouse manager, Bian Fei, the restaurant manager, and Hu Junhua, the bathhouse manager, also came together.
Coupled with Xu Damao's words, the management of the guest house is finally here.
"Chu Suo, when did you come?"
After the three of them came in, they were invited into the back room by Xu Damao. Seeing Chu Heng already sitting in the room, Qiu Rong hurriedly walked up with his fat body and took out a cigarette and handed it over.
"I just arrived not long ago." Chu Heng took the cigarette but didn't smoke it. He put it behind his ears, then frowned and said to Qiu Rong and the others who had already started lighting the cigarette: "Go, go, go,
When you go outside, don't you see there is a child in the house? Don't let her choke again!"
"Oh, forget about this, let's go for a walk, go out and smoke, go out and smoke."
Several people hurriedly turned around and went out to the outhouse to smoke.
Yu Haitang, who was repairing clothes next to him, raised his head and glanced at Chu Heng, with a nice smile on his lips: "You really feel sorry for Xu Jingshu."
"That's right, I..." Chu Heng, who almost let it slip, hurriedly swallowed his words, looked down at his daughter who was sitting on his lap, grabbing a grape and stuffing it into her mouth, and touched her lovingly.
Head: "Are the grapes delicious?"
"Good seven!"
Xu Jingshu raised her dirty face and smiled innocently.
"The godfather will get you some more when he comes back next time." Chu Heng didn't dislike it at all and couldn't help but lean in and kiss her on her pretty face.
After a while, Qiu Rong and others came in from the outer room after finishing their cigarettes. They teased the children and chatted for a while, and Xu Damao's meal was ready.
Then Chu Heng handed Xu Jingshu to Yu Haitang, who had already eaten in advance, and went to the outhouse to drink with Qiu Rong and other gentlemen.
Xu Damao prepared a lot of delicious food today, including chicken, fish, meat and eggs, but the most commendable one was undoubtedly a civet civet casserole.
Deboned and sliced civet meat, add old soup, then put it into a casserole with winter bamboo shoots, mushrooms, ham and other ingredients and simmer over low heat, then sprinkle some chives on it, the taste is simply delicious!
"Civet cats are good."
"It's delicious, it's delicious! Damao's craftsmanship is second to none."
"Don't just eat, drink.
A few people exchanged cups of delicious food for a while, and Hu Junhua, who was a little tipsy, started chatting and said mysteriously: "Hey, do you all know the recent news about the powerful one who wants to find jobs for unemployed young people?
I now have accurate information. The higher-ups are not planning to arrange any jobs at all, but are planning to send all these educated young people to the countryside to support construction!"
"Is it true?"
"Who did you listen to?"
Qiu Rong and others hurriedly put down their chopsticks and looked at Hu Junhua. These days, almost every family has several unemployed young people either directly or indirectly. They are not spared either. They either have children at home or relatives.
, so everyone is paying close attention to this news.
"A relative of mine has a neighbor who works in Hainan. He said that he was ready to submit the documents. I guess that's all." Hu Junhua said.
"Oh, if that's the case, then you'll be in trouble! In rural areas, where people don't have good food and housing, how will they be treated?" Qiu Rong was a little worried. He had two nephews who were currently at home looking for work.
"No, I went to my hometown in the countryside to visit relatives in the past two years. Tsk, the conditions are so miserable. I can't even have enough to eat several times a year."
"Not only is it hard, it's also tiring. Working in the fields every day can be exhausting to death!"
"Hey, I have a younger sister at home. I don't know if she will go."
Several people flying by the side also sighed.
Chu Heng ate the food in silence, not daring to ask or say anything.
If you don't want to go to the mountains and countryside, it's actually very simple. You can just find a way to get a job, or be sent to serve as a soldier.
It just so happens that he is the one with the right path...
So how could he dare to make any noise at this time?
I don’t think I have enough troubles on my hands!
Fortunately, Qiu Rong and the others didn't delve too deeply into this topic. After all, the news was just hearsay from Hu Junhua, and we didn't know whether it was true or not, so they quickly turned the page and continued to talk over cups and cups.
This continued until after six o'clock, and everyone at the table was drunk except Chu Heng.
"Tsk, why are you guys still toasting me when I can't drink?" Chu Heng looked at these useless little trash lying either on the table or under the table, and sighed helplessly.
Then he called Yu Haitang over and helped Xu Damao to the bed to rest. Then he went to the courtyard to call Sha Zhu, Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang to help carry Qiu Rong and others out and take him to the car.
Then Chu Heng drove everyone home one by one, and it was already around 7:30 before he returned to Banchang Hutong.
At this time, the two younger ones had gone to bed, and Ni Yinghong and the others were gathering in the main room to watch TV.
After Chu Heng returned to the hospital, he first went to the study room and took a look at the three puppies that had just been born. Then he fed Little Hei and Little White some beef jerky before going to the main room.
"Back."
Ni Yinghong looked back when she heard the noise, then turned her head and continued watching TV, saying: "Guo Kai called me while you were away and asked you to contact him as soon as you came back."
"knew."
Chu Heng used his heels to guess that it was about the dinner party, so he turned around and walked out of the main room, and ran to the phone booth on the street to make a call to Guo Kai.
And the result was just as he guessed, it was indeed about the dinner party. Manager Guo Kai and the others wanted to meet with Yaoba Wan tomorrow night.
So after hanging up the phone with Guo Kai, Chu Heng picked up the phone again and dialed his father-in-law. When the call was connected, he told the person there to find Ni Chen, then hung up again and waited for five minutes.
After another call, he finally got through to Ni Chen.
"Hey, is this Tsuneko?"
"It's me, brother, are you okay tomorrow night? I'm a comrade..." Chu Heng told him the matter simply and clearly.
"What's the point of eating for this little thing? If you ask him to come to me directly later, it's over. I've already made an appointment tomorrow."
"That's not okay. When we go to eat, it's secondary. The main thing is to support my comrades."
"Okay, I'll turn down tomorrow's dinner."
Ni Chen agreed without any hesitation, and then the two of them said a few more words before hanging up the phone.
"Here, man, I'll give you some money."
Chu Heng took out some money and gave it to Old Man Wen, who was guarding the stall, and threw another cigarette away before turning around and leaving.
the next day.
Chu Heng, who had paid for half the night's public food, got up very late. He had nothing to do during the day. After eating and coaxing the children for a while, he walked out of the house and prepared to go for a walk to Shichahai.
As soon as he came out of home, he heard several neighborhood aunts gathering together to talk about going to the mountains and countryside. When he came out of the alley and walked on the street, he could hear pedestrians talking about this from time to time.
As if overnight, this matter had spread, many people began to ask around, and some even started to make preparations.
