Zhao Rui and Liang Hongchang don't have much contact on weekdays, but Zhao Rui's father-in-law celebrated his 70th birthday a few days ago, and he hoped to entertain relatives and friends at a Hutongkou restaurant.
The Hutongkou Hotel has exquisite dishes and an excellent reputation. It is difficult to reserve a seat on weekdays, let alone book a large area for a birthday banquet at once.
Moreover, Zhao Rui's father-in-law's birthday happens to be on October 1st, and it is such a day of universal celebration. You can imagine how booming the restaurant's business is.
My father-in-law and his whole family were so happy to visit the Hutongkou Hotel that they asked Zhao Rui to greet Liang Hongchang. Liang Hongchang agreed without any hesitation, and on the birthday of Zhao Rui and his father-in-law, he also sent a big cake and a birthday party.
Every dish served was prepared by the hotel's team of top chefs and was delicious, delicious and satisfying. The guests who came to celebrate the birthday were satisfied with the food and praised it full of praises. Zhao Rui's father-in-law and his family also gained a lot of face.
Zhao Rui's family was poor since he was a child. He and his wife have known each other since they were children. The two families have always been in contact, and the old man's financial situation is getting better and better. He often helps Zhao Rui's family. Zhao Rui's university and postgraduate studies are also funded by his father-in-law.
of.
Therefore, Zhao Rui's feelings for his father-in-law's family are the same as those of his biological parents.
It's not without reason that Liang Hongchang is willing to help Zhao Rui. It's false to have any plans for Zhao Rui, but it's true to have a high regard for this young man.
Zhao Rui has a good character, meticulous behavior, and treats all colleagues equally. There is no such thing as flattering or looking down upon.
Zhao Rui took the initiative to ask Liang Hongchang about the purpose of inviting him over to eat fish today. Liang Hongchang didn't mince words. He raised his hand and patted it twice. The wooden sliding door of the elegant room was opened. Lin Kun and
Tang Yuzhen walked in.
When Zhao Rui saw Lin Kun, his face was slightly surprised, but he soon returned to normal. Even though this was a big leader who had no real power and was rumored to give up his boss at any time, Zhao Rui still stood up respectfully and shouted.
call.
"Leader Lin..."
"Director Zhao, Director Liang, I didn't disturb your meal, right?" Lin Kun said with a smile.
Zhao Rui said with a smile: "I only took a sip of the wine, and the big boss came in to offer me a toast. The dishes on the table and the three-pound Golden River Bass didn't even touch a thorn. Director Liang had long known that Leader Lin
If you want to come over, just wait until Leader Lin comes to the table."
Lin Kun didn't sit down immediately while standing, and said with a smile: "Director Zhao, if I sit down, you won't get a call right away and have to leave, right?"
Zhao Rui said with a smile: "Leader Lin, please stop teasing me here. Even if I really want to leave, if I don't have a good taste of the three kilograms of golden perch on the table, I will lose my life in the next week."
I can’t even sleep.”
Tang Yuzhen whispered in Lin Kun's ear: "Director Zhao likes to eat fish. Golden perch is the first of the three delicacies in the Mota River. People who are not good at eating it cannot eat it." (10)
Lin Kun sat down at a square table. He and Tang Yuzhen sat opposite each other. Zhao Rui and Liang Hongchang happened to be next to them on the left and right. The person sitting on the main seat was Liang Hongchang. Liang Hongchang intended to give up this seat to Lin Kun. Lin Kun was
He refused with a smile: "Director Liang, this seat is reserved for the payer, and today's meal is yours."
Liang Hongchang laughed and said, "Okay, since I'm paying for this meal, I'll set a rule for today's meal. Don't you mind, Leader Lin?"
Lin Kun made an invitation gesture, and Liang Hongchang said with a smile: "For today's meal, we will only talk about life and romance, but not work."
Lin Kun poured himself a glass of wine, "Director Liang, I have to toast you first. Thank you for this golden perch banquet, so that we can sit in this elegant room with the river breeze and talk about life and romance.
."
Zhao Rui also raised his cup, "Count me in."
Tang Yuzhen sat there and hesitated, but she also raised her cup and said, "Count me in..."
The meat of Golden Perch is delicate and delicious, without the earthy smell of freshwater fish. In addition, the big boss personally cooks the fish, which is 100% delicious, and makes it 200% delicious.
A fish weighing three pounds is not very big, but it is definitely a rare big fish among golden perch.
In addition, it is paired with some other freshly caught fish, fried and fried in various ways, and paired with this stuffed motta. This meal is really indescribably hearty and comfortable. (Zero One)
During the dinner, Lin Kun and others really didn't talk about work at all. They chatted about their views on life over the years, talked about the mountains and rivers they had seen, lamented the passage of time, and briefly felt melancholy, and then thought about it again.
In the future, everyone except Lin Kun drank too much in the end.
Zhao Rui held the cup in his hand and came to the window of the private room. There were bright lights on the river bank, and pedestrians came and went leisurely. They regarded it as a good place for a leisurely walk.
On the opposite side of the river bank, there are also dim lights, and the prosperity is engraved under the night sky.
Zhao Rui suddenly drank all the wine in the cup and shouted into the endless and bright night, "Ah..." At this moment, his body no longer had the vigor of being young and learned, but instead changed.
I feel depressed and melancholy.
Liang Hongchang looked at Lin Kun, his eyes filled with another layer of profound meaning.
With a slight smile on Lin Kun's face, Liang Hongchang stood up and took the initiative to carry the two-pound small wine jar to Zhao Rui's side to pour him wine.
Zhao Rui was holding the cup with both hands, and the expression on his face had returned to normal. He smiled and said: "Director Liang, Leader Lin, I just made you two laugh. People live in this world, and things that go wrong are common.
9. I usually hide it in my heart and release it with the help of alcohol when I am happy. But don’t underestimate the shout just now. The people below regarded me as a lunatic, but the pent-up energy in my heart is still there.
I also shouted out."
"I'll give it a try too." Liang Hongchang was facing the window and shouted at the top of his lungs. After shouting, he immediately coughed, "Ahem, I can't do it anymore, I can't do it anymore. I'm getting older and my breath is obviously not as good as yours."
The feet of young people.”
With that said, Liang Hongchang turned back, smiled at Lin Kun and Tang Yuzhen and said: "Boss Lin, Yuzhen, do you two want to come over and release the pent-up feelings in your hearts?"
Tang Yuzhen, who had not spoken much during the entire dinner, walked to the window and shouted loudly into the deep night: "Ah..."
Three of the four people had already shouted. Lin Kun finally came over, but instead of shouting, he suddenly threw a whole jar of unopened wine out the window.
A whistling sound...
The wine jar with a white and blue appearance brought up a whistling wind and flew into the vast night. It traced a trajectory in the mid-air and soon disappeared, and then there was a "plop" sound.
…
In the middle of the invisible river, there was a splash of water.
Then under the surprised looks of Zhao Rui, Liang Hongchang, and Tang Yuzhen, Lin Kun put his hands to his mouth and shouted out the window: "Mota River... This is what I respect you for!" (To be completed.)
