At night, Gao Bin took his younger brothers and sisters to Xu Damao's house in the backyard, and immediately saw Lou Xiao'e who was cooking.
How do you say it?
He's a bit plump and looks like an average person.
Gao Bin came to the conclusion that the maximum number was 500, and turned to look at Xu Damao who was setting the plates.
"I brought a bottle of wine and some sausages, just in time to add some vegetables!"
When Xu Damao heard this, he felt as happy as anything:
"Vice Minister Gao, this is too polite. I said I would invite you today."
"Hey, due etiquette, our family has three mouths."
After saying that, he took his younger brother and sister to say hello to Xu Damao and his wife.
We are all of the same generation. Although there is a difference in age, we still call them brother and sister-in-law.
After the ceremony, under Xu Damao's warm hospitality, the two children served the table first, while Gao Bin stood at the door talking to Lou Xiao'e.
"Sister-in-law, you and Damao have been married for a long time, right? This is the first time for us to meet?"
Lou Xiao'e said with a smile:
"Yes, big brother, hurry up and do it, the smell of oil smoke is strong here!"
"It's okay. I'm used to it. I cook for my two children at home every day."
"Really? I didn't realize it, brother, you still have this skill?" Lou Xiao'e said in surprise while flipping the scallion pancakes.
"Hey~ I'm just trying to put the duck on the shelf. I can't say it tastes good, but it's edible."
"That's fine. It's good if you have a stutter these days. Okay, I can bake this cake. Let's serve it."
Seeing Lou Xiao'e putting the cakes on the plate, Gao Bin sat down.
Xu Damao poured a glass of wine for Gao Bin:
"Come on, Vice Minister Gao, I'll fill it up for you!"
"Da Mao, we are the same generation, just call him by his first name in private. If you feel unfamiliar, just call him Binzi."
Xu Damao wished he could get closer to Gao Bin and immediately said:
"Then I'm not welcome, Binzi!"
"Hey!"
Seeing that Gao Bin deserved his due, Xu Damao smiled with wrinkles all over his face.
Lou Xiao'e came over with a plate, placed it on the table, and sat down next to Gao Bin.
"Sister-in-law works hard~"
"It's not hard, you're welcome. It's just Damao and I. It's very deserted. You can bring your children here more often, so you won't have to worry about it."
Look how beautifully these words are spoken, Gao Bin feels warmer in his heart anyway.
"Okay, then I will definitely come often in the future."
Everyone was seated, Xu Damao picked up a cup and started eating directly.
There is so much emphasis on eating these days, whoever gets it is the one who gets it.
Especially the two children, when they saw the roast chicken on the table, they started to eat it as if they were seeing their relatives.
Gao Bin couldn't laugh or cry as he patted each of his two little heads:
"Can you two be successful? It's as if I've wronged you."
Xu Damao waved his hands repeatedly:
"It's okay, brother, the child is ready to eat."
After saying that, he directly tore off two large chicken legs and gave one to each of the two children.
"Eat! If it's not enough, tell your Damao brother, go out and buy more!"
This shows how rich Xu Damao’s family is. Let alone roast chicken, even if they buy a chicken and stew it themselves, it’s not easy to eat it just once a year. Roast chicken is so expensive!
The key is not money, this thing requires meat tickets.
Who is willing to use meat tickets to buy roast chicken?
Gao Bin knew how much money Xu Damao earned. Even if he could get some benefits from going to the countryside to show movies, the amount would be limited.
I can live such a life only because of Lou Xiao’e’s father!
The skinny camel is bigger than the horse. Although we lost, our family has a strong foundation.
Gao Bin picked up a piece of chicken breast. Not to mention, it was quite tasty. The roast chicken of this era tasted much more solid than that of later generations.
Why?
Because there are not so many additives, they are all marinated with real seasonings.
The chicken is tender but not raw, and even the most difficult-to-taste chicken breasts will not taste tasteless.
At the beginning, everyone just chatted, occasionally caring about the two children's studies, and chatting about the recently screened movies.
After the two children had eaten and drank enough, Gao Bin asked them to go back and do their homework first. Xu Damao finally couldn't hold it back and started talking about what happened yesterday.
"Brother, you don't know that I have been suppressed by Silly Pillar for so many years, and I finally turned over. Just because of this, I have to have a good drink with you!"
Seeing Xu Damao like that, I really felt like I was letting out a bad breath.
Gao Bin found it funny and said:
"What is the deep hatred between you two? There is no need to bring it to this point, right?"
"Brother, you don't know, we are at odds with each other. If the elder hadn't come forward to intercede this time, I would have let the grandson go in and stay for two days."
Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes:
"Quickly pull him down. You forgot how you cried out in pain when Silly Zhu hit you, right? I'd say you're just free. Why do you have to compete with him?"
Xu Damao was unhappy:
"They say long hair means short knowledge. How come you, who don't have long hair, have such short knowledge? Am I competing for superiority? What I'm competing for is a man's dignity!"
Lou Xiao'e doesn't like hearing this:
"Okay, for the sake of your man's dignity, you make such a fuss every day, what does it look like?"
Xu Damao looked at Gao Bin:
"Brother, please judge me. Silly Zhu picks up on me all day long. Do I have to take revenge?"
Gao Bin laughed:
"This, I don't know how to say it, come on, drink!"
Xu Damao had good wine here, plus the loose wine Gao Bin brought back from the army, and soon the three of them were high.
Especially Xu Damao, he is so talkative.
"I'm sorry to you~ Brother, your brother and I have been so frustrated these past years!"
Looking at him gesticulating and swiping his hands in the air, you know that this person is about to reach the measuring point.
Gao Bin hurriedly picked up three more glasses of wine and sent the person directly under the table.
Then he embarrassedly said to Lou Xiaoe:
"Sorry, sister-in-law, you are too talkative~"
Lou Xiaoe smiled and took a direct shot of the desktop:
"Brother, you have done what I have wanted to do for a long time. Come on, my sister-in-law respects you."
"Come on, do it!"
Not to mention, this Lou Xiao'e has a good drinking capacity. She is an absolute hero among girls. Anyway, she can drink several times more than Xu Damao, a guy who seems to have a good drinking capacity!
When the two bottles of wine bottomed out, Lou Xiaoe stood up holding the table:
"I'm dying. I can't drink anymore, otherwise we both have to lie on the floor!"
Gao Bin got up and staggered. He had been drunk all his life and his face was red, but the alcohol tolerance he had developed in the army allowed him to stay clear-headed even if he drank too much.
"Sister-in-law, let me help you get her to the kang."
"Okay~"
As they said that, the two of them bent down and dragged Xu Damao up with one arm and one arm, dragged him directly to the kang, covered him with a quilt at random, and let him sleep like this.
Gao Bin said goodbye at the right time:
"Then I'll leave first. I'll cause trouble for you tonight, sister-in-law."
"Brother, you are too polite. Come and play often in the future."
Gao Bin took advantage of the wine and said something dirty, just to test it out:
"Aren't you afraid that Damao will misunderstand me if I come here to play often?"
"He? Misunderstood what? Misunderstood us two? Haha~ Stop joking!" Lou Xiao'e didn't take it seriously at all.
"Why are you kidding me? I am a handsome and ambitious young man, and you are a charming lesbian who is in her prime of life. We are passionate about sex. Isn't it normal for something to happen to you?"
Lou Xiao'e swayed and burped:
"Haha~ OK, let's wait until something happens."
Gao Bin curled his lips, good guy, you really drank too much, you dare to answer anything.
I can’t say it anymore, besides, it’s so easy to get into trouble. If you really want to do something, now is the time.
...
The next few days were peaceful, and no one in the courtyard made any trouble. Except for Xu Damao showing off his power in front of Silly Zhu when he had nothing to do, and the two of them quarreled a few words, the whole thing was still harmonious.
On the other hand, Qin Huairu and Gao Bin haven't seen anyone for several days. They can't help but be curious. Could it be some kind of butterfly effect?
Right now, Gao Bin was pushing his bicycle out early in the morning, preparing to go to work in the factory.
I met two beauties, one big and one small. The big one had her head tied up, she had a plump figure, and a mole on her eyebrow, which added a touch of charm.
The little one wears the twin ponytails that are most popular among girls of this era. She walks with a skip and a jump, showing her youthfulness and beauty.
"Eh? Gao Bin? Is he brother Gao Bin?"
Qin Huairu got married early, and he had met Gao Bin before he went to serve in the army, but he didn't expect that after so many years, he would recognize her at a glance.
"Is she sister-in-law Huairu? I haven't seen her for so many years, but she is still so beautiful."
Gao Bin's words are not flattering. When Qin Huairu married into the Jia family, she was well-known in the streets and alleys nearby. Everyone knew that the Jia family had married a beautiful daughter-in-law.
From then on, no matter who married a daughter-in-law around here, she had to compare herself with Qin Huairu.
Eh? This one is prettier than Qin Huairu.
Eh? That one is far worse than Qin Huairu.
"You're so good at talking, you're still pretty, you're already old." Qin Huairu smiled, with endless emotions in the corners of his brows and eyes.
"Are you still old? Then there will be no young people in this world."
Qin Huairu was worthy of being the originator of teasing in the Han world. He raised his small fist as if to hit him and stared at him:
"Just kidding me~"
"This is no joke. I swear to God, you are really ageless. Not only are you ageless, you are still as beautiful as ever."
Qin Huairu was so amused that he covered his mouth and sneered:
"Okay, okay, don't praise me, but when did you come back?"
"Didn't my parents leave just a few days ago? I came back to take care of my affairs."
"Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot about this."
Of course Qin Huairu knew that the Gao family had both passed away, but she just happened to go back to her parents' home that day.
"It's okay, okay, sister-in-law, I won't chat with you anymore, I have to go to work~"
"Sure, you changed jobs and came back? Where are you going to work?"
"Steel rolling mill, yes, I won't leave again!"
Gao Bin pushed the bicycle, waved to Qin Huairu, smiled politely and nodded to the little beauty beside him, and climbed on the bicycle gracefully.
Not long after he left, the little beauty beside Qin Huairu couldn't restrain her love, took her cousin's arm and asked:
"Sister, who was that person just now? He looks pretty good."
Qin Huairu was stunned for a moment, rolled his eyes, and joked:
"What? You're attracted to it?"
Originally, she wanted to introduce Qin Jingru to Shazhu, but she didn't expect Gao Bin to come back, let alone Qin Jingru to fall in love with Gao Bin first.
"Oh, sister, what do you like? I just think it's pretty good."
Qin Jingru's eyes betrayed her, and she kept peeking in the direction Gao Bin left.
It's just that Qin Huairu took in all of this, and his mind was full of excitement. He was ready to go back and inquire about Gao Bin. If the conditions were right, it would not be impossible to introduce him to Gao Bin.
When the time comes, for the sake of my cousin, I will also take more care of her family.
Others don't know, but she knows how much money the Gao family has. The couple earns a salary, and they are both senior workers. The salary is so high that it makes people drool.
Now that the couple is gone, the family business is designated to be inherited by Gao Bin. Isn't this inappropriate for a wealthy family?
"Sister~Sister?"
Seeing that Qin Huairu remained silent, Qin Jingru shook her arm.
"Ah? What did you say?"
"Nothing, I just want to ask about the person just now."
"Oh, his name is Gao Bin. He lives in the front yard, right across from the third uncle. Both his parents were old men in the steel rolling mill, but they have passed away now, which is a pity."
Qin Jingru’s eyes began to shine:
"My parents passed away? Doesn't that mean I no longer have to serve my parents-in-law?"
Qin Huairu was about to nod, but felt something was wrong. He turned to look at his cousin and said with a half-smile:
"Okay, Qin Jingru, you have nothing to do. You are starting to worry about serving your parents-in-law."
"No way, I just said casually, oh sister, let's go quickly, I'm exhausted from traveling so early in the morning."
...
Not to mention the encounter with Qin Huairu in the morning, Gao Bin rode into the steel rolling mill and went straight to the administration building.
However, he did not go to his own office in the logistics department. He went to the second floor on the way and gave Sister Zhou a small gift to thank her for her help when she joined the company.
He knew that Sister Zhou came early and was usually responsible for opening the door, cleaning up, etc. Now he was not afraid of being seen by giving gifts.
After receiving some thanks, Gao Bin slowly came to the logistics department office on the fourth floor.
Open the door and open the window as soon as possible to let the cold air blow in and disperse the smell in the house.
Then he personally carried two thermos bottles to the water room to open the water. The logistics department office was short of manpower and could not allocate water. There was no one to serve him for the time being, so he had to do it himself.
After fetching water and making tea, Gao Bin decided to go to the guest house for a walk.
After so many days in office, the director of the guest house has not even shown a single face. It is simply outrageous. Why don’t you treat him as a deputy minister as a cadre?
With the name of the guest house director Tan Tian in mind, I wandered to the southeast corner of the factory. The guest house is here. It is an independent three-story building. The outer wall is covered with wall-creepers, and it looks quite artistic. Guesthouses in this era don't even mention the services, and all the facilities are very backward. Not to mention the bathhouse, it would be nice if they can get you some hot water to wipe yourself.
However, the factory guesthouse was quite large when it was established, and at one time it was also responsible for the work of the foreign affairs department in receiving foreign guests.
However, with outdated management and aging facilities, the current guest house is very deserted, and it happens almost every day that there are more waiters than guests. As for functions other than accommodation, forget about it, it is possible in your dreams.
Before he stepped onto the steps of the guest house, Gao Bin frowned. When he walked in and stood there for more than ten minutes and no one came to greet him, his brows were enough to kill several flies.
Just when I was thinking about whether to yell or not, the eldest sister came down from upstairs, pulling on her slippers, yawning all the time, her hair was like a chicken coop, and her eyes were covered with feces.
When Gao Bin saw this scene, he almost lost his temper. Fortunately, he came here today. If the leader came, he would have to put the blame on his head.
When the other party saw Gao Bin, he was also stunned, frowned and asked:
"Are you checking in? Why are you here so early? Do you understand the rules?"
Gao Bin opened his mouth but didn't say anything yet, and the other party said like a barrage:
"Okay, okay, that's it for your first time out of town. Please pay attention in the future. Show your letter of introduction and ID. Prepare to stay for a few days. The guest house does not care about meals. If you want to eat, you have to buy a meal ticket and go to the cafeteria to eat." Seeing Gao Bin still in a daze, the other party became impatient:
"Hey! What's wrong with you? I'm talking to you."
If this woman had more eyesight, she would have been able to tell that Gao Bin had murderous intentions.
Of course, you can't kill people, but every one of these waiters should get out of here!
"Call your director out."
Gao Bin was too lazy to talk nonsense to her. This waiter was already on the blacklist, so there was no need to talk to her anymore.
"Director? What kind of a greenhorn are you? It's ridiculous that you still meet our director!"
The eldest sister yawned again. She didn't know what she did last night, but she was so sleepy.
Gao Bin threw his work permit directly at her. Fortunately, he had this thing with him, otherwise how could he prove that it was him?
This eldest sister finally realized the seriousness of the problem. If she was staying in a hotel, she would not dare to be so arrogant.
With an anxious look on his face, he bent down to pick up his work permit from the ground, opened it and took a look, and shouted out:
"You are our new deputy minister, right? Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was negligent just now."
Gao Bin pointed at her and shouted angrily:
"I don't want to hear any more nonsense from you. Go over and call Tan Tian. If you don't see anyone in 3 minutes, you can all pack up and get out!"
"Hey! I'm going right away!"
The eldest sister turned around too hastily, staggered, and the slippers flew two meters away, but she didn't dare to pick them up, and rushed upstairs in panic.
After a while, there was a clanging sound upstairs, and panicked footsteps sounded one after another. Soon, in less than two minutes, people began to rush down.
Gao Bin still stood where he was, staring intently at everyone who came down from the stairs.
These bastards actually live in a guest house.
But they occupy the room, where will the guests stay?
In less than three minutes, everyone gathered downstairs, but there was no discipline at all. Everyone stood aside in a very casual manner.
Tan Tian came down last, just like the elder sister at the beginning, yawning non-stop and smelling of alcohol.
"I'm sorry, Vice Minister Gao, you didn't notify me before you came, and everyone was not prepared. Next time, it won't be like this next time."
Tan Tian laughed. He didn't pay attention to the young man Gao Bin at all. Not only was his attitude casual, he was not even willing to find a reason.
Gao Bin even laughed angrily, why did you blame him for not notifying him?
Okay, okay, very good, Gao Bin has never been so angry in several lifetimes. He must get rid of Tan. It will be useless even if the King of Heaven comes, he said so!
This bastard must have someone to rely on, if not the factory leaders, then those little gangsters outside?
Very good, Gao Bin has not yet moved his muscles when he came to this world, so he just needs to practice with them!
