Back at the company, Ergou and Qingfeng got off the car. Because he drank, Qingfeng went directly back to his dormitory and lay down to rest. Chen Ergou told Wangshan to drive Anran back first. It's over, you can go home if you want. I didn’t want to go home, so I slept in the company. Wangshan said that since there was nothing going on at home, I would just sleep in the company and wait until Qingfeng's matter was resolved.
The two nodded to each other. Chen Ergou walked back to the dormitory and found that the stove had gone out. He didn't bother to regenerate the stove, so he went directly back to the inner room, turned on the electric blanket, and went to bed to rest. After a while, he fell asleep.
was speechless all night.
At seven o'clock the next morning, Chen Ergou woke up on time. After getting dressed and getting up, I started lighting the stove without washing my face. When the stove started to heat up, Qingfeng and Wangshan both got up. I also came here without washing my face. Chen Ergou put a pot of water on the stove and while waiting for the water to boil, the three of them sat by the stove and started smoking. Qingfeng looked the same as yesterday, not very interested and worried. Wangshan didn't have a ride, and he chatted with Chen Ergou when he had nothing to say.
Waiting for the water to boil, the three of them began to take turns washing their faces. When it was over, Chen Ergou put a few pancakes in the oven, put the leftovers in a bowl, placed them on the edge of the stove and started to heat them. After the food was hot, the three of them started to eat breakfast.
While eating, Chen Ergou thought about it. After eating for a while, he loaded the persimmons he had prepared before into the car, and then asked Wangshan and Qingfeng to follow him around. First, go to the county seat and deliver the persimmons that Brother Wen, Brother Qiang, and his third cousin had ordered before. It's almost the end of the year, so they probably need it soon. After
comes back, I will stop by Fan Sheng, Li Xiaoliang, Chen Pingjin, Xiaoqin Carton Factory, and An Ran, give me a few things, sit down, talk about the cooperation over the past year, and keep in touch with each other. Lay a better foundation and cooperative relationship for next year and future cooperation. This is the minimum exchange between businessmen. We are usually busy and don’t have time, but it’s the end of the year. Taking advantage of the free time at the end of the year when everyone is not busy, it’s a good time to get around.
Being idle is idle anyway. Instead of sitting together and staring at each other, it is better to walk around and take Qingfeng out to relax and meet people. Maybe his mood will be better. I also took advantage of this time and opportunity to get things done that I should have done years ago. This time it's over, and there's no need to worry about it anymore.
In addition, Chen Ergou also wanted to introduce his familiar relationships to Qingfeng and Wangshan, so that they could work more conveniently in the future.
After making up his mind, after finishing the meal, Chen Ergou arranged for Wangshan and Qingfeng to drive the car to the warehouse and start loading. The three of them passed the boxes to each other and filled the trunk. Most of the back seats were occupied, leaving just enough room for one person to sit. Because Qingfeng was tall and thin, he was arranged to sit in the open space.
After the car made a large circle in the county town, three or four hours passed by without even realizing it. By the time I came out of Fan Sheng's store, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. Fan Sheng wanted to treat him to dinner, but Chen Ergou declined. The three of them drove directly to Li Xiaoliang's house. On the way, we found a casserole shop and each of us had a casserole and a Lao Tongguan Roujiamo .
After completing the afternoon tour, we visited Li Xiaoliang, Xiao Qin, and Chen Pingjin respectively. Each of them received a box of persimmons, a box of Qiongguo candy, , a bottle of six-year Xifeng wine, , and a pack of cigarettes. When we came out of An Ran and returned to the company, it was just getting dark. As usual, the sun was just setting at this time. But the weather suddenly turned cloudy in the afternoon, and thick clouds rushed out from behind Beiqiao Mountain, accompanied by gusts of northwest wind. In the blink of an eye, clouds gathered above the head. The weather is getting colder. Seeing a heavy snowfall, it started to fall. The three people lamented that this year was really a good year, with snow falling one after another. It snows during the Chinese New Year, so that there is a Chinese New Year atmosphere.
The three of them got out of the car and walked to Chen Ergou's bedroom and office. Chen Ergou walked to the stove, used the stove hook to lift the lid of the stove and took a look. The fire had been extinguished long ago. When Wangshan saw this, he turned around and went outside to get firewood without saying a word.Chen Ergou replaced the lid of the stove, squatted down, shook the lever for cleaning the ash, leaked the ash into the dustpan, took it out, carried it outside, and sprinkled it under his feet. Carbon dust is best used to prevent slipping.
Qingfeng has been around for a day, his mood is slightly calmer than in the morning, and he is helping Wangshan light the stove.
The stove was burning brightly. Chen Ergou filled a pot of water and put it on the stove. The three of them sat around the fire, started smoking, and prepared to make tea.
In order to avoid an awkward atmosphere, Chen Ergou specifically told the two of them about the company's repayment situation. All the payment has been settled and received. Ask the two people when it is appropriate to divide into and split the money. Wangshan said that he would wait until Qingfeng's matter was over. Chen Ergou looked at Qingfeng and asked what he meant with his eyes. Aomine nodded in agreement.
Chen Ergou continued: Xiaohui, who was selected by Tuanxi, has been confirmed with me. At the end of February or early March after the new year, they will have a live broadcast and let us submit apple . People’s consumption of fruits will increase after the New Year. I ate too much fish and meat during the New Year, and I will definitely eat more fruits after the New Year for a change of taste. The light, sour and sweet apples are just right. It is estimated that more than half of the apples stored in our cold storage can be taken away. Coupled with our own and Enron's online stores, it is estimated that they will be gone.
Wangshan smiled and said: That would be great. After the New Year, we will have a good start and people can be busy for a while. If people are busy, they have to stay busy. Being suddenly free is a bit uncomfortable. I've been feeling out of sorts at home these past few days.
Qingfeng said: You're fine, go look for An Ran. Why are you staying in the house?
Chen Ergou said with a smile: Yes, what are you doing at home? Go to the back mountain to find An Ran!
Wangshan said: She is very busy. Every time I go, I sit in front of the computer for hours and have no time to talk to me. Or, no one is there, either going to a meeting or sorting out some information. It's the end of the year and she has a lot on her plate. I'm afraid of disturbing her.
Chen Ergou said: The more this time is, the more I need you. You help her light a stove, boil some water, and buy food. What a great opportunity.
Qingfeng smiled bitterly and said: Ergou is right, you just stay around her, keep the stove going for others, have some vision, serve tea and water, and put a hand on someone's shoulder when nothing happens. There are two different things between having someone by your side and having no one by your side.
Wangshan said a little embarrassedly: "Isn't it too clingy?"
Qingfeng couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: What are you afraid of being clingy? What you are afraid of is that others will care about An Ran for you, and then nothing will happen to you. Brother Shan, look at what I look like now.
Wangshan couldn't help but smile and said: I understand, I understand. When this thing with you is over, I won't come back.
Chen Ergou said: Yes, it has to be like this. Sometimes you have to learn to be thick-skinned.
The three of them continued to chat.
Qingfeng stared at the window and suddenly shouted: It's snowing, it's snowing.
Chen Ergou and Wangshan turned to look out the window together. White snowflakes, like petals flying in the wind, were slowly falling in the air. You can tell from the size of the snowflakes that it will snow again tonight.
Just as the three of them were preparing to make pots of tea, Chen Ergou's cell phone rang. He took out his cell phone and looked at it, and quickly hissed and said, Zhang Lei's phone number, there is probably something going on in Meiyang Town.
Qingfeng and Wangshan couldn't help but move forward. Chen Ergou answered the phone. Zhang Lei said on the other end, Ergou, I made an appointment with Li Jianwei. I will pick him up later and have a drink in my store. Do you want anyone to come over?
Chen Ergou thought for a while and said: Our past will not affect your drinking and chatting!
Zhang Lei also paused for a few seconds before saying: It shouldn't affect it, you guys probably haven't met each other before, so you don't know each other! I mean, it was not easy for me to ask Li Jianwei out. I tried to make him happy by drinking, and let him drink freely. After drinking, he had nothing to guard against, and I tried to trick him again. If you can't figure it out for a while, you should find a way to get close to him and try to figure out what's in his heart. If that doesn't work, just show it off in person. Let Qingfeng and Li Jianwei face each other, pour beans from a bamboo tube, and have a direct conversation between men.Even if he takes advantage of the drunkenness to have a fight outside.
Men, let's have a fight to vent out our grievances and frustrations, and then sit together and continue chatting, and maybe the more we talk, the more speculative things will become. Just like me and you, we don’t know each other without fighting! If you are a man, be more straightforward and straightforward. Everything must come to an end in the end, right? Are the two of them going to be involved in this matter for the rest of their lives? It's me, so I'll talk directly to Li Jianwei. To put it harshly, it’s so that we can have a bed warmer for the rest of our lives. To put it mildly, if you fight with someone for the woman you love, even if you see some blood, it won't be a big deal. If a man doesn't have this kind of momentum, I think you should forget it. Do we need other women to settle this matter for us? Our man's face is still there.
Chen Ergou pressed the hands-free speakerphone, and Qingfeng listened to everything Zhang Lei said. Although Zhang Lei's idea is a bit reckless, it is still the last choice. Just like Zhang Lei said, this matter will eventually be resolved, and it is impossible to just keep hanging three people. Let three young people waste their wonderful youth. Zhang Lei's last words suddenly aroused the passion and momentum in Qingfeng's heart.
whispered in his mouth, Zhang Lei was right, I can't sit like this, waiting for Mengting to stand up for me, then who am I? No, I will confront him head-on. Ergou, do you have anti-skid chains on your car?
Chen Ergou looked at Qingfeng's sudden fierce aura and couldn't help but snorted. He smiled and said to Zhang Lei: Okay, that's it, the three of us will be there soon.
hung up the phone, Chen Ergou stood up and said to Wangshan: There are anti-skid chains in the trunk. Brother Shan, let's go, put on snow chains, go to Meiyang Town, and cause trouble.
Wangshan also stood up and said: Let's go, make trouble, and enforce things hard. Whoever doesn't poop a few hard poops in his whole life has to take off his pants and pee standing up, who is afraid of whom? Let's go head-to-head today and see who is tougher.
Chen Ergou turned around and walked out, saying to Qingfeng and Wangshan who were following him: It's snowing heavily, which is a good sign. How many years from now, when the three of us are too old to walk, I will definitely tell my son that back then, your dad and I, your Uncle Qingfeng and Uncle Wangshan, drove straight to Meiyang Town in the dark midnight, braved the heavy snow, just to make your Uncle Qingfeng and your Aunt Mengting happy. Baby, listen to what Dad said, life is short. When you meet the person you like, don’t be indecisive or hesitant. Just like your Uncle Qingfeng, rush forward desperately for your Aunt Mengting. Only those who love you can understand how deep your love is by taking risks for love. Even if we don’t get your dedicated love in the end, we will have no regrets in our lives. To love someone, you must love without reservation. Such a person is worthy of being entrusted with your life.
After finishing speaking, Chen Ergou laughed first. The laughter shuttled between the snowflakes, stirring up the snowflakes and changing their falling trajectory and posture. They fell to the ground leisurely, like a smile. Wangshan followed behind, laughing and praising Ergou for what he said. When he gets old in the future, he will have to show off to his children and grandchildren. He has also done something risky for love. Although the protagonist is not him, he feels it is worth it. Qingfeng was silent and looked gratefully at the two people walking in front.
The three of them walked to the car in the snow with the light shining from Chen Ergou's bedroom. Chen Ergou opened the trunk, and Qingfeng and Wangshan took out their mobile phones at the same time and illuminated them for him. I moved a bunch of things away, found two pairs of anti-skid chains, took them out directly, and started to unbuckle them.
After Chen Ergou finished undoing the buckles, he and Qingfeng lifted one up and laid the anti-skid chains in front of the wheels. Wangshan got out of the car, started the car, looked at Chen Ergou's commanding gesture, drove the car forward a little, and let the wheels hit the middle of the anti-skid chain and stop. The two of them squatted down, started snapping, and then tightened. Repeatedly, I also put an anti-skid chain on the rear wheel.
After the anti-skid chains were put on, the snow on the ground was already half-squeezed and thick. The snowflakes in the sky were a little bigger than before. The snowflakes were falling sharply under the light, as if someone was tearing cotton wool from the sky and scattering it down. I watched the snow on the ground continue to thicken.
As Chen Ergou walked towards the bedroom, he asked the two of them if they had anything to take.
Wangshan shook his head while sitting in the car. Qingfeng thought for a moment and dug into his pockets. He had everything on his body and shook his head. He opened the door and got into the car. Chen Ergou walked back to the bedroom and took the charger, wallet, mobile phone, cigarettes and lighter. I walked to the stove, kicked the dustpan tightly, checked that there was no flammable material near the stove, then walked out of the bedroom with confidence, turned off the light in the bedroom, closed the door, and went straight to the door. Wangshan had already driven the car out of the school gate. Chen Ergou locked the door, opened the car door and got in.
After sitting down, Chen Ergou looked outside the front windshield and saw the scattered snowflakes in the light from the car lights, and said to Wangshan: Brother Shan, let's go.
Wangshan started to put the gear into gear, and the car drove forward slowly, the wheels making a sound of crunching on the snow. Snowflakes are like light dancers, dancing in the cold wind and emptiness. Under the illumination of the car lights, they look like a beautiful stage play.
years later, whenever Chen Ergou saw the falling snowflakes and heard the sound of cars running over the snow, he couldn't help but think of this night. The three of them seemed to be taking absurd, ignorant and fearless adventures, but they made a couple of people who were in love come true, and they made their own brothers come true. It became one of the few times in his life that he discussed things of value and significance. Leaving aside reason, emotional impulses are the most colorful strokes in life. Just like Wangshan said, who doesn't have a few hard poops in his life?
