Lao Tan went to see a job, and Xiaofeng contacted her. Her friend's friend opened a 600-square-meter restaurant in Beisantaizi. It was on the same street as the Guandong family. The Guandong family was at the west end of the street, and this store was at the east end of the street.
Just moved here and it's being renovated.
The boss is a woman in her forties. She looks very courageous and looks like a strong woman. I chatted with Lao Tan for a while. Because they were renovating, it would take two months to complete. We left each other's phone numbers and waited half a month before the opening.
connect.
After the conversation, he said goodbye to the female boss, and Lao Tan walked aimlessly. It's been almost half a month since he came down. He can't stay like this all the time and needs to find a job as soon as possible. June will be here soon, and he hasn't made any money in half a year. It's a bit...
It doesn’t make sense,
There are many people on the street. It has already entered summer. The leaves of the poplar trees on both sides of the street are green and mottled with infinite vitality under the sun. The pedestrians on the street are all wearing half-sleeves. The young people are wearing shorts and short skirts. Tell me.
People's current season.
Lao Tan didn't want to take Wanfang Road, mainly because he didn't want to pass the Guandong people's house, so he walked along Lingbei Street directly towards Gate 4 of the aircraft factory, planning to walk to Songshan Road and go home directly.
Lingbei Street is very lively. There are many restaurants, large and small, on both sides of the street. Whatever you do, you care about the restaurant. If you are a chef, you care about the restaurant. When you walk to the front of the Hangfei Hotel, it is no longer a hotel, it has been changed into a barbecue city. Look
The business must be good, there are about thirty beer case sets at the door.
Santaizi people are famous for their ability to drink alcohol and are famous in the provincial capital. If you want to talk about the number of wine mengzi, they must count Santaizi. It is normal for two people to drink under the cover of a box. If one drink is not enough, they have to drink a second one. This is commonly known as "turning around"
field".
If you are doing a business, you don’t need to go in and take a closer look. Just look at the beer box covers placed at the door. If you have more, it will be better, but if you have less, it will not be good.
When opening a restaurant in Santaizi, the drinks must be cheap, not too expensive. There are many drinkers in this place. Normally, a meal costs 500 yuan, and the meal is only 200 yuan. The remaining 300 yuan is for drinks, which shows how powerful the drinker is.
.
After passing the Hangfei BBQ City and continuing to walk forward, the Houdeju in front has also changed its appearance. Now Xiao Li Feidao hand-rolls the noodles. A bowl of noodles is 9 yuan, and various side dishes are 6 yuan or 10 yuan, all of which are optional.
.Laoxue costs three yuan, fresh beer four yuan, light beer four yuan, and dry beer five yuan. Their drinks and side dishes are cheap, and they are all full by the time the meal comes. They are all trying to save money by drinking at the expense of the wine.
This is a poor man's paradise. Anyone who has no money in their pocket and wants to drink comes here. It's cheap.
Cheap bosses also make money. They don’t make single-meal profits, but they make multiple meals. The profits are no lower than those of hotels.
Next to Houdeju is the Yangdele Muslim Restaurant. The business is also good. It is the most popular Muslim restaurant in Santaizi. There are many people eating there. The main reason is that the prices are cheap and the drinks are cheap.
After walking forward for a while, the phone rang. I picked it up and saw that it was Yanhua calling.
She has a day off today.
Ever since they found out that Lao Deng had a woman outside, the two of them have been in a state of cold war. No one talked to the other or paid attention to the other. Lao Deng admitted his mistakes to Yanhua, but Yanhua didn't say anything and was so calm that it was scary.
.
From that day on, the two began to sleep separately and lived a separate life.
Yanhua wakes up every day to make stuttering food for herself, then goes to work. After get off work, she goes home and eats a random meal, then lies in bed to rest and doesn't eat at night. If she doesn't eat, she won't cook. Lao Dengxia can no longer enjoy his wife. The only way to prepare a meal and wait for him to come back from get off work is to cook a bowl of noodles and not cook a bag of frozen dumplings.
Seeing that the door to Yanhua's room was closed, he wanted to knock on the door, but he was afraid of being disgraced, so he went back to his room to reflect and suffer. He had cut off contact with the woman, but he knew that he had made a big mistake.
I will not forgive myself easily, I can only wait for time to slowly dilute everything, and then return to the previous days.
Although this is an era where irons are everywhere, whether men or women have confidantes or lovers outside, but after all, it is a shameful thing, especially in front of their wives or husbands. Otherwise, how can we say that everyone has irons?
It's no secret that he is a master.
No one will see their significant other being intimate with Tiezi and remain indifferent, as if nothing happened, unless they are a fool. Yanhua is not a fool and cannot accept this. Knowing that she cannot divorce, she treats it in this cold war way -
—Living under the same roof, no one interferes with anyone else.
She wished it would be great to have a child. She could ignore Lao Deng's affairs and take care of the child at home every day. It would be a happy thing. But she listened to Lao Deng and didn't want a child. She was so stupid. Why did she just listen to this man?
He said he didn't want it, so he didn't say anything back. It was too late to regret it.
Lao Deng went on a business trip. When he left, he said he would come back in a month. In the past, when he went on a business trip, he would pack his luggage in advance. This time, he didn't take care of anything. He packed it all by himself. He didn't know if he had brought everything with him. Although I hate it
This man, after all, they have been married for more than ten years and still have feelings for each other.
I had a rest today. After I got up, I tidied up my room. Then with half reluctance and half uneasiness, I went into Lao Deng's room and tidied up the room. Although I didn't want to take care of it, I couldn't let it go, because she had something to do with life.
Innate virtuousness and kindness.
After cleaning up the house, I had nothing to do and wanted to go out for a walk. I was going to call Xiaoyan. If he wanted to call her, Feng Shimin would have to follow. The two of them were in love, so he didn't fight when he saw that they were upset.
The first two days after work, I passed by a Guandong house and went in to see Lao Tan. The people there said that he was no longer working there and he should probably be at home now. I gave him a call to see what he was doing. If nothing happened, we could have a meal together and chat.
, now he is his natal family.
The two made an appointment to meet in Yangdele.
Half an hour later, Yanhua arrived and the two of them started ordering.
Lao Tan asked: "How are you doing lately?"
Yanhua smiled and said, "It's okay, it's pretty good." Then she asked, "Why don't you do it at a Guandong home?"
"I was fired. I didn't do a good job."
"That's because the boss has no vision. Are you looking for a job?"
"I just went to see a job before renovating it. It will open in two months."
"You can't wait two months either."
Yanhua finished ordering and handed the recipe to the waiter.
Lao Tan said: "Well, I can't wait for two months, so I'll keep looking and I'll take the one that suits me."
Until now, Lao Tan doesn't know that Yanhua was walking on the street in the middle of the night because Lao Deng had a woman outside. He thought it was because the couple had a quarrel and got angry. Seeing that Yanhua looked good, he felt that the two of them were getting along.
So he asked: "Lao Deng has gone to work?"
Yanhua said: "Well, I'm on a business trip to Haicheng."
"He is always on business trips?" Lao Tan asked.
"Yeah, I'm always on a business trip." Yanhua agreed, not wanting to mention Lao Deng, and asked, "Has the child gone to kindergarten?"
"Well, I'm in kindergarten." Lao Tan replied.
"I haven't seen Lin Yan for a long time. One day I have time to treat the three of you and your family to a meal and meet up." Yanhua said.
Lao Tan said: "Okay, I have time."
Before the food was served, a table of guests came in. They were none other than Brother Liu, Xiaofeng and Wang Ming. The three of them were at the mahjong club and had not been able to join in the game. It was noon and Brother Liu said to eat haggis. Wang Ming said it was good here.
So we came together.
It was better to meet by chance than by chance. Since we met together, we sat at the same table. Yanhua knew Wang Ming and Brother Liu. It was the first time to meet Xiaofeng. Lao Tan introduced them to each other.
Xiaofeng asked Lao Tan how he was doing, and Lao Tan said something. Hearing that he still had to wait two months, Xiaofeng said: "That's just right. Remember, Sister Yuan, who we had dinner with that day, called me in the morning.
She is going to Inner Mongolia in two days. She said she is building a park there with hotels and guesthouses. Find someone who understands to follow her and ask if you are at work. If you are not at work, follow her."
Lao Tan said: "Okay, let's go."
Xiaofeng worked quickly and called Sister Yuan directly to finalize the matter and set the salary at 8,000 a month for how many months she would work. Lao Tan was very grateful and said thank you to Xiaofeng.
Xiaofeng said: "Thank you. It's just a word. Don't be polite to me. Just because you and the city management officer admired you that day, you looked like a man."
Lao Tan smiled and said nothing.
Xiaofeng asked Yanhua who was sitting next to Lao Tan: "Sister, what are you doing now?"
Yanhua replied: "I'm cleaning the Tianyitun Senior Activity Room."
"Is it at the village office?" Xiaofeng asked.
"Yeah." Yanhua nodded.
Xiaofeng said: "Village chief Li Wanshan and I know each other well, and we are also familiar with secretary Lao Feng, so I can help you there."
Wang Ming smiled and said to Xiaofeng: "Xiaofeng, you know how to play Santaizi, you are familiar with it."
Xiaofeng raised her head coolly and said, "Have you forgotten what your sister does? Sister Feng is very powerful in Santaizi, and she is a bit thin-faced regardless of whether she is a gangster or a white person. If Sister Feng is not popular, it will be unforgivable." After saying this, she laughed.
Get up and liven up the atmosphere at the wine table.
Five people, six dishes, two bottles of liquor, and a box of Laoxue. Lao Tan, Brother Liu, and Xiaofeng drank beer with Baijiu, Yanhua, and Wang Ming. Halfway through the drink, there were more customers in the store. Anyone who knew Wang Ming
Ming came over to offer a toast, after all, he was the director. After toasting, he asked the waiter to add food and wine. After a while, six dishes turned into eight dishes, and one box of beer turned into two boxes.
The people in Santaizi are interesting. If you meet someone you know well in a restaurant, they will toast each other and then add wine and food. When ordering wine, you usually order according to the number of people at your table.
It's easy to drink too much. You can't return the wine someone added to you in exchange for money. That would be too shameful.
There are two things that people are afraid of when drinking. One is that a new person joins in the middle of the drink, and the other is that the wine is added halfway. If these two happen, they will drink too much. Lao Tan, Xiao Feng, and Brother Liu finished the white wine, and Wang Mingyu
Xiaofeng drank beer. Xiaofeng is a player who gets excited when she drinks, so she started drinking beer again under her guidance.
"Laoxue is still delicious, strong and can taste like beer." Xiaofeng said after finishing a glass of beer.
Wang Ming had already drank five bottles. He had seen too much, and he began to speak awkwardly. "Then------what else is there to say? Lao Xue is not going to do anything, and people from provincial cities have to drink----
--Lao Xue."
Brother Liu was fine and said, "I always drink Laoxue, dry beer. I won't drink light beer."
Xiaofeng shouted excitedly: "I'm happy today. After I finish drinking, I'll go sing and then go to the karaoke bar to continue drinking."
Wang Ming asked: "What should I do if I can't sing?"
Xiaofeng patted him on the shoulder and said: "If you don't know how to sing and drink, don't say no, you can't say no, you know?"
"Your brother can do it, anytime." Wang Ming immediately showed off his manliness.
In this way, the five people drank all the wine and started to change scenes. They went to the karaoke hall and howled for two hours. Not to mention, after drinking the wine and howling twice, the drunkenness was reduced a lot, and they were all sober when they came out.
In the evening, when Lin Yan came back from get off work, Lao Tan told her about going to Inner Mongolia. Lin Yan said that she should go as long as she could make money.
"I don't want to go so far, I would like to do it at home." Lao Tan said.
Lin Yan said: "I don't have a job at home. Now we can't stay here. We still have to buy a house and pay for Jiaheng's schooling. We need money for everything. We will have to move out in two years at most."
Now, will you still rent a house to live in then?"
Lin Yan is telling the truth.
"Okay, go out and make money." Old Tan said with a smile.
"What if we don't make money? We can't afford it," Lin Yan said.
Lao Tan picked up his son and asked, "Son, can it be okay for dad to go to another place?"
The son looked at his father and said, "Okay, I will listen to my mother at home."
"Dad will go away for two months and then come back to see you."
"Okay, I know how to use a microwave now."
"Dad is gone, do you miss him?"
"Sometimes I think that if I go to kindergarten, I won't be able to remember it."
"If you miss me, call daddy."
"Well, I'll call you from my mother's phone."
Lao Tan kissed his son's little face, and a blood-blooded father-son affection emerged spontaneously, and his eyes couldn't help but become moist.
