What Hong Yanwu said made sense, but he spoke a little too casually.
Some of the words actually had a mocking and mocking effect on many people at the table if we thought about them carefully.
Who can listen to this without feeling awkward?
So what was originally a joyful dining party was met with an awkward silence after he said this, and no one continued to talk.
And this point, Hong Yanwu himself soon thought about it.
Thinking about it, something is really wrong.
The other party was Yang Weifan's family and friends. They originally wanted to change his job with good intentions, but if he didn't want to, let it go. He talked so much that it seemed like he was taking the opportunity to teach everyone a lesson and give them advice.
Jiangshan educates life.
This inevitably makes people think that he is a bit arrogant, and he has hurt people's face without good or evil.
To use a common saying, it means "poor and poor".
Why bother?
As a result, he felt very embarrassed and took the initiative to laugh at himself.
He said that he had no knowledge and was a rough person. He was originally a commoner, and he only had the vision of living in a cricket jar. If he said something inappropriate, it was purely unintentional, and I ask for your forgiveness.
After saying that, he raised his glass in a very low manner and walked over, bowing and toasting Yang Yaohua with a glass of wine. This was similar to an apology.
Of course, Yang Yaohua's mind was not that narrow-minded. The old general said with a smile, "You are quite interesting, I didn't expect you to have the debating eloquence of a philosopher." He was forgiven and the matter was revealed.
Yang Weifan was also very knowledgeable. In order to save his buddy, he immediately changed to another topic.
He deliberately asked his mother what new show the "Haiphong Song and Dance Troupe" was rehearsing and whether there was anything new in the troupe.
As soon as he mentioned this, Moody talked a lot, and he spoke vividly and interestingly.
She said that the regiment was short of Western musical instruments, and she applied to buy some violins. However, a newly promoted clerk was ignorant of the skills and thought the price was too expensive. He decided to make his own decision and ordered the regiment's carpenters to make them. The carpenter couldn't laugh or cry, so he had to find more violins.
Senior leaders complained.
She also said that an accident occurred while performing in the sample play of "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom". The gong used for effects backstage was knocked off by a soldier who sneaked in to join the scene. Thanks to the quick wit of the actor who played "Mountain Eagle"
, a line was added on the scene, "Come here, let's see what's going on down the mountain." The emergency was saved. And in this way, the "bandits" also understood the situation, responded "Yes, Mr. San" and went backstage to arrest people.
…
These jokes immediately made everyone laugh.
In addition, Moody also mentioned in passing that there is a girl named Su Xiaoming in "Haifang" who has a good voice and a good image. The group plans to focus on cultivating good talents.
Zhou Manna and Ye Xuan were very interested after hearing this, so they inquired about the details. Moody said that there would be another performance in "Haifang" in a few days, and if they wanted to go and see it, she could find them tickets.
In this way, the atmosphere of the conversation ended completely and became lively again.
Later, Zhou Manna and Xuan Ye chatted about the internal anecdotes of their "general affairs department". The topic returned to the family's usual track, and the harmony and comfort that should be at the dinner table were completely restored.
Hong Yanwu, on the other hand, acted honestly and never said a word again.
Needless to say, this was all caused by what was said just now.
He's obviously a lower-class person, so why do he have to get along with Yangchun Baixue?
Having learned from the past, he was unwilling to make any further trouble. Now he could get down the stairs smoothly and save his brother's face. It was not easy.
After the meal, naturally neither Hong Yanwu nor Chen Liquan wanted to stay any longer. Although the hosts were still trying to persuade them to stay, they insisted on leaving after thanking them repeatedly.
Before leaving the house, Yang Yaohua specially called the two of them to his side and shook hands with them one by one to say goodbye.
He also asked them to come back during the Chinese New Year and eat sausages and blood cakes at home. He said that they were indispensable flavor foods during the Chinese New Year in their hometown and were famous for their deliciousness.
Even Moody said, "The things you sent are very good. We like them very much. We are happy today. I hope you are happy too."
Their attitude cannot be said to be insincere. Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan also politely agreed, showing the reserve and etiquette of the people in the capital.
But in fact, both parties knew each other well. The invitee would not come, and the inviter would not mention the matter again. I am afraid that this attendance is really just an accident.
Sure enough, when Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan finally walked to the gate, no one from the Yang family followed them except Yang Weifan and Han Shan, who saw off the guests on behalf of Yang Yaohua.
This undoubtedly reflects the true attitude of most people in the Yang family.
In fact, according to the rules of seeing off guests, the host must at least let the guest down the steps and watch the guest leave.
But no one else showed up in the room. They all kept their airs and stayed inside and didn't bother to show up.
To them, Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan were still insignificant and insignificant people.
Fortunately, Hong Yanwu had already anticipated this. In his eyes, these were just objective inevitabilities of the existence of real society.
In other words, this kind of polite respect or disdain is not actually directed at him as a person. It is an attitude towards his social status and social identity.
If we really want to be serious, he, a temporary worker who washes pig intestines, has to go against the whole world.
What's more, after eating and drinking from others, Han Shan and Yang Weifan, who were appointed by Yang Yaohua, had to drive them back.
Why should he care about those frivolous things?
Striding out of the Yang family's door, Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan found that snowflakes had begun to fall from the sky, which was blown by the north wind, and the ground outside was already dark.
Knowing that the road would definitely be difficult, the two of them were not polite and got into Han Shan's jeep.
As for Yang Weifan, Hong Yanwu rejected his "kind offer" on the grounds that he had been drinking and had to accompany guests. He did not give the boy a chance to escape Zhou Manna.
Finally, under Yang Weifan's resentful eyes, Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan left in the car.
But I still have to say that even though the two of them are gone, no one really feels any nostalgia for their departure.
But whether they were willing or not, what Hong Yanwu said during the banquet today left a deep impression on everyone and had a profound impact.
This was quickly revealed after they took their leave.
The first is the conversation between Yang Weijiang, Zhou Manna and Ye Xuan in the living room while eating after-dinner fruit.
Yang Weijiang was particularly disdainful of Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan, and when he heard the sound of cars outside, he began to ridicule them unscrupulously.
"Look, who does Xiao Liuer associate with? He washes pig intestines. He is also a member of the labor force. We invited him to our house with good intentions and wanted to help him, but in the end it didn't work out.
You don’t know how to praise! What pursuit of emotional perfection? Bullshit. I think it’s just laziness and slickness. It’s really shameless to talk about depravity in a high-sounding way!”
Of course Zhou Manna had to follow Yang Weijiang's instructions.
"That's right. When things are going smoothly, he always wants to be comfortable. It is obviously going downhill and he is negative, but he thinks he has entered a lucky nest. If we were not a socialist country, such people would have starved to death long ago. They are purely petty bourgeoisie.
It’s a common problem! Look at today’s unreasonable disturbance that made our little Xuan angry! Our ‘little leaf’ has never suffered such grievances!”
But none of them expected that Xuan Ye, who had really suffered a setback, would not be so resentful towards Hong Yanwu.
"Hey, actually I don't have anything to do with it, it's just a verbal dispute. Thinking about it afterwards, the 'umeboshi theory' is quite vivid. And at least one sentence is right, the world is still rich and colorful. Just take the last name
Hong himself is obviously a typical old Beijing native. People like him living in hutongs live a completely different kind of life. Their speech, behavior, and thoughts are all different from the people we usually interact with.
Don’t you think it’s interesting? I’ve never heard of many of the things he mentioned. What are fried liver and fried cakes with butter? What is diabolo? Aren’t grasshoppers only found in summer? How can it be winter?
Where is he raising? I really should have asked him just now..."
Yang Weijiang and Zhou Manna looked at each other, their expressions were not so good, and they unanimously tried to persuade each other.
Yang Weijiang said, "Xiaoxuan, your curiosity is very dangerous! I tell you, you should have less contact with such people in the future! Don't forget that existence determines consciousness. In the bottom life, people like Wang Guofu who are long-term workers
How many talented people are there who have a global view? Most of the "Hutong Chuanzi" are full of market mentality and short-sightedness. They talk about eating, drinking, sleeping, food, clothing, housing and transportation all day long. Deal with them.
, will only make you mediocre, vulgar, and boring!”
(Note: Wang Guofu, born in 1922. He fled famine to Beijing when he was 12 years old and later settled in Dabailou Village, Daxing County. He was a typical laborer who established a mutual aid group in the 1950s and led farmers out of poverty and became rich. In 1969, the whole village basically lived in poverty because of him.
Although he moved into a new house, he still lived in the old "Changgong House". He died of illness in August 1969. In January 1970, "People's Daily" and major newspapers across the country published a long article reporting on his deeds in a prominent position.
Communication. He therefore became the creative prototype of Haoran's novel "Golden Avenue")
Zhou Manna also said, "Yeah, what's so interesting? My little princess, you really don't like the world. Do you know what kind of life the people in the hutongs live? Most of the families in the hutongs have one room and half a room.
The kang is so crowded that in the dog days of summer, I can only sit on the curb to enjoy the cool air. I wish I could eat a steamed bun and draw lots. Don't look at the man named Hong who claims that he is not short of money. He is just an ignorant fool.
Damn, it’s just a matter of looking at the sky from the bottom of a well. How high can he be? How much knowledge can he have? With some money in his hand, I don’t know what my last name is! I’m still wondering how to persuade Wei Fan to stay away from them, you girl!
Don’t be stupid!”
When Ye Xuan saw the two of them reacting so violently, she winked playfully and said nothing more.
It's just in my heart... But no one can care about her.
