There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Chapter 388: Articles on the Table

It's not what it used to be.

The guest house of the military region in the provincial capital, Zhang Guoqing came again, and the feeling was different.

Xiao Zhou is gone, and Fang Fei is not there.

Mr. Lin has retired, although there are still people to greet him, but there is no crowd to greet him last time.

He didn't know how the old man was feeling at the moment, and he thought inexplicably that the hero was always at the end of his life.

Fortunately, the treatment has not changed, and I still live in the original room. Otherwise, he was really worried that the old man would feel the gap and his spirit would be stimulated.

Before dinner, following the notice of the old man, more and more people came gradually.

For a while, several elders sat in the room.

Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao looked at each other, and as they expected, the old man did have a plan.

Just as the couple were about to leave to visit Zhang's father and Zhang's mother, they were stopped by the old man.

You all know my little five, but my granddaughter, you old guys haven't seen it yet, have you? How is it? Pretty?

Zhou Jiao stepped forward again and greeted all the elders with a smile.

We still have cubs for Siberian tigers. Son, why didn't your dad come this time?

Zhou Xiaozheng must be busy. You've been busy, you've given us a lot of face. When you see your dad, remember to ask him to come back often, and tell him that the old man is addicted to alcohol. Your dad must know.

Zhou Jiao hurriedly nodded with a smile.

While paying attention to the content of Zhang Guoqing's chat with everyone, she responded to the questions of the elders.

Soon, Zhou Jiao understood.

Even Mr. Zhao Luocheng was invited, Mr. Lin is planning to do it all.

Retired, working, and basically speaking elderly people were all arranged by the old man for this gathering half a month ago.

It's a pity that there are still two ultimate characters who did not appear.

One of them is the old leader of her father Zhou Xiaozheng, who is said to have gone to a meeting.

She listened carefully to everyone's discussions, hoping to catch clues.

It's a pity that there are many people in the provincial capital, and she can't match her number.

She glanced at Zhang Guoqing and saw that he was respectful and communicating with the elders freely. He planned to torture him at night, and if he had anything else to hide from her.

Mr. Zhao Luocheng dealt with Mr. Lin with a smile on his face, looking at everyone present from the corner of his eyes from time to time. The old guys have lived all their lives and never seen anything. Knowing that old man Lin is coming to the Northeast, he wants to get together with everyone, and everyone knows each other well. For now, everyone has been avoiding official business and chatting about family matters.

He thought to himself that Zhou Xiaozheng's pair of juniors should have seen it too. Thinking of what his youngest son said before he left the house, he wished he could go back and shoot his son to death—and worried that his stupid son would be caught if the young couple were caught.

Now it seems that Zhou Xiaozheng has let go and let his daughter and son-in-law come out to practice. The Cheng family and the Zhou family are as close as a family, old man Lin must be in a hurry - he left this bad game.

In my own opinion, it would be better to directly mention the purpose to the young couple. Smart people hate being used by others, especially Zhou Xiaozheng is most disgusted by others using him to go through the back door.

I think it's okay if you go to the capital with me to stay for a few days this time. Lao Cheng can't come to the Northeast this time and still misses you. How is it? Go or not? I just went to see my old buddies.

Mr. Zhao was frightened by Mr. Lin's suggestion. He couldn't think about it, and now he is still going to the capital. As long as he himself follows old man Lin, his eldest son Chuanyao will not suffer.

Hey... my wife is not in good health, we'll have to talk about it later. Old Lin, if you call us old fellows over, won't you give us a drink?

Mr. Lin clapped his hands, If you don't tell me, I'll forget the time. Let's go, let's eat first. Xiao Wu, go and call your parents.

Seeing this, Zhou Jiao quickly smiled and said, Grandpa, I'll go with them. You and the old men, don't blame the younger generation for being rude.

You're a girl who doesn't know how to drink, so I don't need you to accompany me. Just let your little five drink with old guys like us. Bring the kids over to show us later. One of the old men laughed.

Mr. Zhao followed closely and said: Leave the women's family to Jiaojiao, Xiao Wu hurry up and invite your father over.

Zhang Guoqing smiled and nodded, Why don't you go to the cafeteria first, I'll send Jiaojiao back first, and I'll go there right away.

After he finished speaking, everyone told him to go invite Father Zhang first, and then go there together later.

Father Zhang's mother's room was full of women.

Everyone is now discussing the itinerary for the next few days with Huang Huimin.

Zhang Guoqing came in and learned that his father had been taken out to drink by Zhao Chuanguang and four uncles.

He smiled - this is the best arrangement.

After greeting everyone, before Zhang Guoqing turned to leave, he patted Zhou Jiao on the shoulder and gave her a comforting smile.

there is always a solution to a problem.

What is there to worry about? So what if a small soldier is really transferred?

At the wine table, Zhang Guoqing was busy pouring wine for the old men.

He always remembers to speak less and listen more, trying to minimize his sense of existence.

In today's Hongmen Banquet, there are so many mature elders performing. He hopes to learn a few tricks. This is no longer a straightforward tactic of the elders of the patriarch.

As his father-in-law described, this is the way different classes handle things. What he lacks now is these insights, these experiences.

After half a round of drinking, no one talks about their own children and grandchildren, let alone business affairs. The old men have been talking about the past and recalling the past. One joke after another, everyone continued in a tacit understanding.

Seeing that Mr. Lin was not in a hurry, Zhang Guoqing kept persuading him to drink. He was really worried whether these old men would drink too much and go to the hospital.

Gradually, Mr. Lin began to shift his words to the friendship of the year, especially his friends who had fallen asleep for a long time. Not to mention, several old men who drank too much had tears in their eyes.

For a moment, everyone fell into a sad mood.

Zhang Guoqing had to say that Mr. Lin used the trick of attacking the mind very well. It's a pity that everyone is not a fledgling kid like him and Zhou Jiao.

Soon, everyone restrained their emotions. He began to laugh at the embarrassing things that happened when he was young, and even funny things about strangers. Soon they talked in twos and threes.

Zhang Guoqing remembered what the father-in-law said in the game between the two sides is patience. Yes, the night is still long, take your time. Nothing much, just enough time tonight.

He glanced playfully at Mr. Zhao. It's really nonsense... It involves the romantic history of the youth. Tomorrow, I must tell Grandma Zhao to see what you do.

This person, read more books to increase your knowledge. It does work.

Look at the old men at the table. Those who are educated will indeed have an advantage, and people will start to talk about the past and the present. But the old man who came from a rough man was not bad either, asking questions and raising opinions in every possible way.

For a while, the topic shifted to Tiannan Haijiao again, which made people feel embarrassed to interrupt. Didn't look at the old man's expression for a few times.

Zhang Guoqing has to say that these old men are all good people. It is indeed not easy to stand in a high position! He is very calm, and he is also very good at talking nonsense.

Zhang Guoqing secretly admired Mr. Lin's indistinct change of subject several times. Looking at him again with a smile on his face, there is no dissatisfaction in his eyes, only the joy of meeting an old friend.

If he hadn't seen Mr. Lin clenched his fists subconsciously several times, he might really feel that his villain's heart outweighs a gentleman's belly.

Looking at the smile similar to that of Grandpa Zhang, Zhang Guoqing felt sad for a while. At this moment, Lin Dingsheng made him envious and even more hated.

He didn't know how long it would take for the old man to understand that the children and grandchildren have their own blessings, don't be a horse and an ox for the children and grandchildren, or when they should give up hope.

Until the wine is over for three rounds, and the people leave and the banquet breaks up. The old man didn't bring up other topics, but made an appointment to visit again.

A flower does not have a hundred days to be popular, and a person does not have a thousand days to be happy

Zhang Guoqing recalled the scene when he first went to the provincial capital with the old man, how long time has passed. Although there were many people talking tonight, the reality of people taking tea to cool down was clearly revealed.
