Hearing Qiao Liang's vague praise, Lu Qian's mother couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Liao Gufeng also wanted to laugh, but held back and glared at Qiao Liang: "Are you praising me or hurting me?"
"Praise, praise!" Qiao Liang nodded vigorously.
"Is there such a boast? He is also smart both inside and outside, and he can handle both the living room and the kitchen..." Liao Gufeng snorted.
"This..." Qiao Liang scratched his scalp and smiled sheepishly.
Liao Gufeng snorted again and pointed to the sofa opposite: "Sit down."
Qiao Liang sat down, and Lu Qian's mother poured tea for them, and then put on her apron: "Old Liao, you have worked hard, I will do the rest..."
As she said this, Lu Qian's mother entered the kitchen.
Liao Gufeng picked up a cigarette, and Qiao Liang quickly took out a lighter and lit it for him. Liao Gufeng took two puffs slowly and looked at Qiao Liang: "Have you quit smoking?"
Qiao Liang shook his head.
"Then why don't you smoke? Do you still have to let me give in?" Liao Gufeng said.
Qiao Liang chuckled, picked up a cigarette, lit it and took two puffs.
This time when she was alone at Liao Gufeng's house, Qiao Liang couldn't help but feel constrained and couldn't even let go of her smoking.
"Is the journey going smoothly?" Liao Gufeng asked.
Qiao Liang nodded: "It went very smoothly."
"Did your aunt's two days in Jiangzhou go well?"
"It went well. Auntie had a great time."
"Does Mr. An know about your aunt's trip to Jiangzhou?"
"Yes, he actually really wanted to come out and receive Auntie, but Auntie had something to say first, so he had to obey and told me to accompany Auntie well."
"Well..." Liao Gufeng nodded, "That's right."
Qiao Liang pondered what Liao Gufeng said and wondered whether he was right. He meant that An Zhe did not bother his wife, or that An Zhe told him to accompany his wife, or both.
Then Liao Gufeng asked: "How is the weather in Jiangzhou recently?"
Qiao Liang obviously knew that Liao Gufeng was not asking about the real weather in Jiangzhou, so he cautiously said: "Sometimes it's cloudy, sometimes it's sunny."
"Well, that seems to be normal." Liao Gufeng said.
Qiao Liang thought about the meaning of Liao Gufeng's words again. It seemed to him that being too cloudy was not good, and being too sunny was not necessarily a good thing.
I don't know why Liao Gufeng thinks so. In Qiao Liang's mind, it should always be sunny. That's good, that's really normal.
Qiao Liang couldn't help but feel that he really couldn't figure out the big man's thinking. The first level was really the first level.
I don’t know when I will reach Liao Gufeng’s unpredictability and profundity.
At this time, Lu Qian's mother brought the dishes to the table and asked them to come to the restaurant.
Everyone sat around the dining table. Liao Gufeng cooked 6 dishes, including meat and vegetables, mostly vegetarian. They looked good, but I didn't know how they would taste.
The first time he ate alone with Liao Gufeng and his wife, Qiao Liang had a special feeling in his heart. This feeling made him a little excited, fresh, and a little cautious.
Lu Qian's mother opened a bottle of red wine. Qiao Liang picked up the bottle and was about to pour wine for Liao Gufeng. Liao Gufeng said: "Pour it for your aunt first. She is the head of the family at home."
Lu Qian's mother laughed, and Qiao Liang laughed too. Then she poured wine for Lu Qian's mother, then for Liao Gufeng, and finally for herself.
Then Liao Gufeng looked at Lu Qian's mother: "Parents, please speak."
"Okay." Lu Qian's mother raised her wine glass and looked at Qiao Liang with a smile, "I went to Jiangzhou this time. Xiao Qiao worked very hard. He accompanied me to Sanjiang Mountain to see the beautiful golden autumn scenery, and he drove me all the way to see me off.
,Auntie, thank you from the bottom of my heart..."
Qiao Liang was polite and said: "Auntie is seeing someone else. You are the elder. This is what I should do."
Liao Gufeng said: "Lao Lu, are you happy wandering around the Sanjiang Mountains?"
"I'm happy. I wanted to visit Xiao Qiao's house, but his parents went on a trip." Lu Qian's mother said regretfully.
"Oh..." Liao Gufeng nodded, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes, and then looked at Qiao Liang, "Why is it such a coincidence?"
Qiao Liang hurriedly said: "Yes, it is indeed a coincidence. My parents went out for a trip before auntie arrived in Jiangzhou. If I had known that auntie had this intention, I would have asked my parents to go out a few days later."
When he said this, Qiao Liang secretly laughed in his heart.
Liao Gufeng blinked, then laughed, and picked up the wine glass: "Here, thank Xiao Qiao, drink-"
Everyone clink glasses together.
Putting down the wine glass, Lu Qian's mother served Qiao Liang some vegetables, and Qiao Liang hurriedly thanked her.
"Xiao Qiao, how does it taste?" Lu Qian's mother said.
Qiao Liang took a few bites and said, "Well, Lao Liao's craftsmanship is good. This dish tastes really good."
"What's a good way to eat it? Tell me." Liao Gufeng said.
Qiao Liang said casually: "The color and taste are both good, the oil is not greasy, the fragrance lingers on the lips and teeth, and the aftertaste is endless. This meal should only be found in heaven, and how many times can we taste it on earth..."
"Haha..." Liao Gufeng and his wife both laughed, and Liao Gufeng said while laughing, "Well, you're a good flatterer, I'm very pleased with it."
Qiao Liang laughed, then poured the wine, picked up the wine glass, and respectfully toasted Liao Gufeng and his wife, wishing them good health and happiness.
Lu Qian's mother couldn't help but praise Qiao Liang for being polite.
Liao Gufeng said: "Xiao Qiao is not only polite, but also knows how to respect his elders. A person who knows how to respect his elders must be filial to his parents. Filial piety comes first. A person who doesn't understand filial piety is not good at home, and the same is true outside.
No, you won’t make real friends, and you won’t be favored by your superiors and colleagues.
The kind of person who does not respect his elders at home, but regards his superiors as the Holy Spirit at work, must be hypocritical, half-hearted, and harbor ulterior motives. Such people cannot be dealt with, let alone used. Therefore, over the years, I have inspected and used people.
We always look at not only how he behaves outside, but also whether he has family tradition and tutoring. These are all closely linked..."
Qiao Liang was sincerely convinced by Liao Gufeng's extension.
Lu Qian's mother said: "With Xiao Qiao's character and quality, his family tradition and tutoring are very good."
Liao Gufeng nodded, and then said with emotion: "Don't think that only the so-called upper-class families can educate good children who are well-educated and sensible. There are also many ordinary people among ordinary people, and there are many of them. Counting three generations up, who is not a child of a peasant family?
What’s wrong with being born in a rural area? How many of our generation are not from rural areas? Therefore, we cannot judge people by their origin. All people are born equal. There is no distinction between high and low. And the level you become higher or lower in the future is up to you.
It is the result of hard work, in other words, happiness is the result of struggle..."
Qiao Liang deeply agreed with Liao Gufeng's words and couldn't help but praise: "These words are so up to date with the times."
Liao Gufeng smiled slightly: "Are you satisfied?"
"Satisfied, very satisfied." Qiao Liang nodded vigorously.
Lu Qian's mother couldn't help laughing.
Liao Gufeng nodded: "I'll be relieved if you're satisfied. Come on, let's have a drink."
This was the first time that Liao Gufeng addressed him in front of Qiao Liang, and Qiao Liang couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in his heart.
Then Lu Qian's mother ate first and then went to the living room to watch TV while Liao Gufeng and Qiao Liang continued drinking.
After a while, Liao Gufeng said: "Qiao Liang, you are a bad boy."
Qiao Liang was stunned: "What's wrong?"
"You instigated Lu Qian to do bad things." Liao Gufeng said with a faint smile.
Qiao Liang understood what Liao Gufeng meant. He was referring to his idea to stop Luo Fei and Qin Chuan's investigation of Lu Qian's background. He scratched his head and smiled: "I really did that out of helplessness..."
"Well, Lu Qian told me." Liao Gufeng nodded, "You don't do things according to the routine, and you are both evil and good. This is somewhat similar to when I was young."
Qiao Liang laughed, it turned out that Liao Gufeng was like this when he was young, not bad, not bad, very fun.
Liao Gufeng looked at Qiao Liang with admiration: "Actually, I have felt this evil yet righteous aura from you for a long time, which made me see the shadow of myself when I was young."
Qiao Liang said happily: "I'm honored that you said that."
"What's the honor? How many of the setbacks I encountered when I was young have you encountered now? Far from it. It's not even close to this." Liao Gufeng stretched out his hand and pinched the top of his little finger with his thumb.
Qiao Liang blinked and asked tentatively: "Do you think the setbacks I have encountered are not enough?"
"Yes." Liao Gufeng nodded, "Frustration is the most precious wealth in life. Only by firming up your original intention and moving forward in the setbacks can you achieve true growth and maturity, and make your heart truly strong. The so-called hard work, hunger,
This is the reason why his body and skin will be disturbed by his behavior, so, boy, don’t be honored, let alone be proud..."
Qiao Liang nodded: "Okay, I'll wait."
"What are you waiting for?" Liao Gufeng asked.
Qiao Liang said: "I'm waiting for some kind of disaster to befall me again."
Liao Gufeng chuckled: "Boy, what are your premonitions recently?"
Qiao Liang nodded: "It seems a little vague."
"Where does this come from?" Liao Gufeng asked.
Qiao Liang felt happy that he could just follow Liao Gufeng's words and tell him about the manuscript.
So Qiao Liang started from the time he went to Yangshan Songbei to supervise the emergency environmental protection treatment, talked about the generosity of Chint Group, and then talked about the article that will most likely be published in Jiangdong Daily tomorrow.
Qiao Liang believed that with Liao Gufeng's profundity and sophistication, he should be able to detect something from what he said. Once he didn't want the manuscript to be published, as long as he called Song Liang, the problem could be solved easily.
solve.
After listening to Qiao Liang's words, Liao Gufeng thought for a moment, then raised his eyes and looked at Qiao Liang: "Does Mr. An know about this?"
Qiao Liang nodded: "I reported it to him."
"How did he react?" Liao Gufeng asked.
Qiao Liang frowned: "He didn't react at all, he just said calmly that he understood."
"Well..." Liao Gufeng nodded, then laughed, "This guy is making progress."
Qiao Liang looked at Liao Gufeng in confusion, wondering why he said that.
Then Liao Gufeng said: "Okay, I also know about this."
"Then what?" Qiao Liang said.
"Then..." Liao Gufeng raised his glass and said with a smile, "Then you drink with me."
"This..." Qiao Liang was a little confused. Why did Liao Gufeng react the same as An Zhe? He thought Liao Gufeng would stop it after knowing about it, but looking at his current appearance, he didn't seem to have any such intention.
It seems that my little plan has failed, and this manuscript will be sent out tomorrow.
Although Qiao Liang was confused at this time, he also knew that since Liao Gufeng had this attitude, he could not say anything more, so he had to drink with Liao Gufeng in a daze.
When An Zhe didn't respond to this matter, Qiao Liang was still a little uneasy. Seeing that Liao Gufeng was the same now, for some reason, Qiao Liang suddenly felt a little more at ease. He felt that he really seemed to be overthinking, and that he seemed to be a little unfounded. Liao Gufeng
You and An Zhe are so calm, why are you panicking?
Although Qiao Liang could not guess what Liao Gufeng was thinking at this time, he clearly realized that Liao Gufeng was indeed an unpredictable person. In front of him, he seemed extremely shallow and blank, so shallow that he was ignorant, and so blank that he was transparent.
After finishing a bottle of red wine, we started eating.
After dinner and some tea in the living room, Qiao Liang saw that it was getting late and was ready to leave.
Liao Gufeng sat on the sofa and said slowly: "Boy, you want to drive after drinking?"
