Chapter 7: Don't be too ugly

"It's fat."
The middle-aged man, called Xiao Kechang, found Ningmu them. He stood up, walked to Ning Mo's table, smiled at Miao Lei and Yu Haitao, and said hello. As he glanced over Qin Hai's face, Chief Xiao stopped for a moment, perhaps remembering whether he had met Qin Hai. After confirming that he didn't know the person, he turned his attention to Ning Mu.
"Fat, what does your father do at home?"
Wu Ningmo pouted, "What else can he do, raise flowers, play chess. By the way, if I am at home, he will train me."
"This old guy!" Chief Xiao Xiao cursed Ningmo's father in an intimate tone, and then said, "Why, fat, steal the materials from the factory and sell them?"
"Secretary Xiao, how can you say this to us?" Ning said aggrievedly.
"No materials were stolen, how could you have money to eat and drink?" Xiao Ke long said.
Ning Mo said: "We are self-reliant. Haitao and Lei Zi, I picked out the scrap steel that was not needed in the workshop, hit a hoe, a shovel, and sold it to the old watch. Then we made some money and invited our buddies to eat. . "
When he said that, he pointed his finger at Qin Hai: "His name is Qin Hai. He graduated from the Agricultural Machinery Technical School and has already reported to our factory."
Qin Hai stood up quickly and said to Chief Xiao: "Is Chief Xiao Xiao? Sorry, I didn't know you just now. I just reported to the factory today. There is no food in the cafeteria, and they would invite me out to eat Now. "
Chief Xiao Xiao nodded to Qin Hai and took the initiative to reach out. Qin Hai quickly reached out and held it. After the two men shook hands, Chief Xiao said, "My name is Xiao Dongping. I am the Deputy Chief of the Supply and Marketing Section in the factory and I know them well."
"Oh, Chief Xiao, I would like to ask you more attention in the future." Qin Hai said politely.
"Secretary Xiao, come and eat at our table." Ning Mo re-invited.
Xiao Dongping waved his hand and said, "You young people have a meal, and I have something to do with you. I just returned from Hongze, and I ate something here and rested."
Tonghongze is the capital of Anhe Province, about 60 kilometers from Pingyuan. Xiao Dongping is the deputy head of the supply and marketing section, and it is common to travel to Hongze for business. Judging from time, he should have just got off the coach from Hongze to come to the restaurant for dinner and rest.
"Secretary Xiao, please sit down." Ning Mo and Xiao Dongping did seem to have a good relationship. He took Xiao Dongping's hand and let him sit down.
Xiao Dongping made two gains, and did not earn a silent paw, and had to give in: "Okay, okay, I'll get things over."
"I'll get it for you." Ning Mo stood up, carried Xiao Dongping's snakeskin bag over, and threw it at Xiao Dongping's feet. "What is this thing, so heavy?"
"Rotate the blade," Xiao Dongping said in an annoyed tone.
"Do you want your stir-fried dried peanuts and peanuts?" The waiter named Xiaofang asked behind Xiao Dongping.
"No, tell your dad, give us more than half a catty of loose wine at this table." Ningmo commanded, listening to what he meant, that Xiaofang should be the daughter of Boss Kong.
哎 "Hey ... how can I help you pay for dinner with me? I'll treat you for this meal." Xiao Dongping said indifferently.
Ning Mo laughed and said, "Chairman Xiao, you don't have to support it. Although we are poor, we earn some pocket money by ourselves. Your salary for a month is managed by Master Xiao How can you have the money to invite us to dinner? Every time you come out to drink, you just drink a fragrant dried seed, and you do n’t even want to fry a meat dish, thinking we do n’t know? If you take the money and invite us to dinner, you have to knelt and wash clothes when you go home Board. "
Xiao Dongping's old face was a little bit red, apparently he was justified. He loves drinking, but as Ning Mo said, several of his wages are managed by his wife, and he has no living money. He went to the provincial city to do business and saved a few cents on the fare, so he had the opportunity to go to the restaurant to buy some casual wine and had an alcohol addiction. Every time he secretly drinks alcohol, he also carries risks. After returning home, he must be rebuked by his wife.
"Fat, Xiao Qin just came to work in our factory, what did you say in front of him?" Xiao Dongping murmured at Ning Mu, and then explained to Qin Hai with a smile: "Xiao Qin, don't listen to Xiao Mu talk , My wife just cares about my body, she won't let me drink too much alcohol ... "
"Huh, I understand." Qin Hai laughed inwardly. "Master Xiao is really virtuous. Like Mr. Xiao, this age is to pay attention to health. However, Mr. Xiao has a hard business trip, and it is necessary to drink a little wine to relax his bones. Yes, you can get a good night's sleep when you go back. "
"That's it, that's it." Xiao Dongping nodded quickly, trying to resolve this embarrassment as soon as possible.
At this time, Mr. Kong has already fried the vegetables one after another. There are six dishes including chilli stir-fried pork, fried pork liver, braised fish, stir-fried dried vegetables, fried spinach, and tofu.
"How can there be so many dishes?" Xiao Dongping's eyes widened.
"Give the wind to Qin Hai, what does the dish look like?" Ning Mo said dryly. Being able to pay ten dollars to entertain a guest makes him quite a bit of accomplishment. He has always been a person who values ​​his face more than money.
Xiao Xiaoping set his sights on Qin Hai, and secretly guessed Qin Hai's identity. In his opinion, those who can enjoy such high hospitality treatment should be unusual.
Qin Hai saw Xiao Dongping's doubts, he smiled slightly, and said, "Ning Mo is so polite. In fact, I just helped them a little. They have to be so polite. However, I can have Xiao Kechang's appreciation, I I feel at ease. "
Xiao Dongping laughed and said, "Xiao Qin really can speak, so to speak, I'm stained with your light today."
At this point, Boss Kong came with a plastic pot. As soon as the lid was opened, a scent of wine smelt on the face, which was intoxicating. Qin Hai knows that the jug is filled with local folk-made shochu, which is made in forty or fifty degrees. It is brewed with pure grain. The taste and stamina are no less than those famous wines that can be advertised in CCTV gold stalls.
When he heard the smell of wine, Xiao Dongping's interest completely shifted away from Qin Hai. He took the jug from Boss almost at the speed of snatching, and then started pouring wine to everyone.
"I borrow Xiao Mo's first glass of wine, and welcome Xiao Qin to join us in the Qingfeng Factory."
After pouring the good wine, Xiao Dongping didn't wait for the host Ning Mo to speak, and then he took up the wine glass and talked about the toast.
"Thank you Chief Xiao, Thank you Ningmo, thank Hai Tao and Lei Zi." Qin Hai also raised his glass and saluted everyone.
Xiao Dongping drank a glass of Chinese wine on his neck and narrowed his eyes. He seemed to be enjoying the taste of fine wine. Then he stretched out his chopsticks and took a piece of pig's feet into his mouth. He chewed hard, and his face showed a happy look.
Hey, how are you? He ’s also an uncle.
Qin Hai sighed in his heart, but he soon extended his contempt for Xiao Dongping to the whole table, because he found that Ning Mo and other three young people were scrambling for the good food on the table. .
"Qin Hai, why don't you eat it?" Ning Mo's mouth was full and he said to Qin Hai with a vague voice.
"I'm eating it." Qin Hai smiled and gorged along with everyone. After doing an afternoon job, he was indeed hungry. Although this table dish has no mountain and sea flavor, and it is all green and natural ingredients, Qin Hai eats a lot of oil and his mood grows brighter.
The crowd ate for a while, sweeping the dishes down for more than half, and this slowed down. Xiao Dongping raised his glass frequently, toasting to a young man, and often did not wait for others to lift the glass. The wine in his glass was already dry. The wine Ning Mo and others drank did not add up to Xiao Dongping alone.
"Xiao Qin, I welcome you to the Qingfeng Factory. But to be honest, you have gone the wrong way."
Xiao Dongping had a refreshing drink, his tongue was a little thick, and he began to enter a state of nonsense. He patted Qin Hai, who was sitting next to himself, and said to him with a crunching tone. UU reading books www. uukanshu.com
Qi Qinhai didn't drink much, and his head was still sober. He smiled and asked, "I don't quite understand what Mr. Xiao said."
Xiao Dongping said: "I know you don't understand. If you understand, you won't come to Qingfeng Factory. I'll tell you that a few years ago, Qingfeng Factory was the entire Pingyuan County ... No, it was the entire Good unit in Beixi area. Good welfare, good conditions and good status! "
Speaking of this, he had the light in his eyes, as if he had returned to the age of the top concubine.
"Hmm, I believe." Qin Hai nodded. An agricultural machinery factory in a county can have a scale of nearly 200 people and occupy an area of ​​one or two thousand acres. It can really be regarded as a top enterprise. Just looking at each single dormitory equipped with a writing desk, we can imagine how magnificent the factory was then.
"At that time, the old man in his family was the director of the factory." Xiao Dongping pointed to Ning Mo and said, "The old man is very temperamental and loves cursing. He trained me like a grandson ..."
"Xiao Keke ... the generation is wrong." Qin Hai reminded kindly that the old man's son was sitting next to him, and Xiao Dongping claimed that he had been trained like a grandson by the old man.
"Qin Hai, what Xiao Kechang said is true, the old man in my family trained me like training grandsons." Ning silently explained, thinking that he had made up his seniority again.
"Uh ... okay." Qin Hai smiled helplessly, "Master Xiao, you continue ..."
"Where did I say that?" Qin Hai's interrupted efforts, Xiao Dongping went down for another two glasses of wine, but for a while forgot what he just said.
