Siheyuan: Twenty-eight bars chasing Qin Jingru

Chapter 431 Hosting a Banquet (seeking Subscription and Monthly Pass)
As he wished, Deputy Director Li was invited, and Yi Zhonghai was so happy that he walked even more vigorously.

The limping leg that had been beaten before seemed to be much better.

When it was time to get off work, Yi Zhonghai immediately got stuck and left.

Anxiously go to the restaurant to order a meal first.

As soon as he walked to the gate of the rolling mill, he saw a figure. Yi Zhonghai's eyes lit up immediately, and he quickly shouted: "Comrade Zhao!"

Hearing his shout, the man turned around and saw that it was Zhao Caixiu.

Yi Zhonghai was also very happy to see that Zhao Caixiu was back to work.

He hurriedly stepped forward and said enthusiastically, "You're back to work, Xiao Zhao? That's great!"

Zhao Caixiu looked neither cold nor indifferent when he saw Yi Zhonghai.

He still remembers the last time he was kicked out of the rolling mill.

It was Yi Zhonghai who came up with the idea, and Yi Zhonghai gave him the medicine, but in the end, it was Zhao Caixiu who was punished.

It caused him to make a fool of himself in front of everyone in the factory, and he lost all face. In the end, he was even directly expelled from the rolling mill.

But Yi Zhonghai is fine, and is still working in the rolling mill.

How can Zhao Caixiu's heart be balanced?

"Isn't this Master Yi? Why do you still remember me as a little man?"

"I thought you'd forgotten about me long ago!"

Zhao Caixiu said in a strange way.

After hearing what Zhao Caixiu said, Yi Zhonghai realized that he was angry.

Then he explained with a smile: "Xiao Zhao, I was helpless about what happened that day. I explained to your director for a long time, saying that you were drugged, but no one believed it at all!"

Zhao Caixiu snorted, but did not speak.

Yi Zhonghai continued: "Just because I spoke for you, I didn't hide from the beating. On the way home that day, when I was walking halfway, I was put on a sack and beat me up, and my face is now The bruises on the body have not gone down yet, and the legs are still not easy to walk!"

After listening to Yi Zhonghai's words, Zhao Caixiu noticed that Yi Zhonghai's face was blue and purple, all of which were injuries.

Legs are also limping.

Zhao Caixiu asked, "Who beat you up?"

Yi Zhonghai spread his hands and said, "Who else is there? Isn't it that person!"

Zhao Caixiu was stunned, and said loudly, "It's Zou He!"

As soon as Zhao Caixiu said it, Yi Zhonghai quickly covered his mouth, and said eagerly: "Slow down, keep down!"

"If it is heard by others and reaches Zou He's ears, we two will suffer again!"

Zhao Caixiu gritted her teeth and said bitterly: "This Zou He is too ruthless! It's so hard!"

Yi Zhonghai sighed, and said, "Who made us both no match for him!"

Zhao Caixiu sighed, and said: "What happened that day was too strange. I obviously drugged Zou He's quilt, and I don't know what happened. In the end, he was fine, but I... was so mad!"

Yi Zhonghai patted Zhao Caixiu's junior and said, "Let me tell you, I ran to your broadcasting room immediately that day, and I heard it clearly. That's what happened that day..."

Yi Zhonghai immediately described what he saw and heard in the broadcasting room that day.

Only then did Zhao Caixiu suddenly realize.

"So that's the case! They actually changed the water cup secretly!"

"No wonder I was the one who drank the drugged tea in the end!"

"This Zou He's heart is too poisonous! It's really hurtful!"

Zhao Caixiu cursed Zou He, and Yi Zhonghai also echoed him.

Both felt that it was Zou He's fault.

However, these two people didn't know how to reflect. If they hadn't drugged Zou He first, how could Zou He have turned against them?
After all, the medicine in the cup was obviously given by Zhao Caixiu himself, not by Zou He.

It can only be said that it is harming others and eventually harming oneself.

However, Zhao Caixiu and Yi Zhonghai naturally wouldn't feel that they were wrong.

The two talked for a while, and then they settled their suspicions, and they shook hands and made peace.

"By the way, Master Yi, I see you are in a hurry, what are you going to do?"

Yi Zhonghai looked at Zhao Caixiu, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he had an idea.

This Zhao Caixiu also hated Zou He to the bone, and today's meal just happened to call him out.

More people are more powerful, and one more person has more chances of winning.Besides, he was going to treat Deputy Factory Manager Li to dinner, and if he brought Zhao Caixiu, he would pay more, so why not do it?

Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai quickly said: "Xiao Zhao, it's great to meet you!"

"Let me ask you, do you still hate Zou He now, do you want to get rid of the shame?"

Zhao Caixiu gritted her teeth and said, "Of course!"

"I wish I could eat its flesh and gnaw its bones!"

Yi Zhonghai nodded in satisfaction and said, "That's good!"

"Come with me, I'll talk to you slowly on the way!"

After speaking, he dragged Zhao Caixiu to the restaurant together.

When they reached the entrance of the hotel, Zhao Caixiu had already heard what Yi Zhonghai said, and said with a happy face, "That's great!"

"Before, it was just the two of us who were weak and weak. We couldn't win against Zou He. Now that Deputy Director Li has joined us, the chances of winning are great!"

"Today's meal, please treat me well!"

The two entered the restaurant.

At this time, deputy factory manager Li hadn't come yet, so Yi Zhonghai planned to order food first.

The two stood at the cash register, looking at the menu on the wall for a long time, but neither of them spoke first.

Yi Zhonghai looked at the menu on the wall, and his heart pounded.

He usually saves money on food and expenses, and has never been in a restaurant.

Now, all the dishes are expensive. If you look left and right, you will not be willing to order any of them.

Yi Zhonghai looked down the menu, and he kept seeing the cheapest dish, which was fried cabbage.A dish costs five cents, Yi Zhonghai hurriedly pointed to the fried cabbage and said, "This is good, this is good! I want this!"

The waiter wrote it down and asked, "Do you want anything else?"

Yi Zhonghai meant that he didn’t dare to order anything else for a long time. Meat and vegetables cost more than one yuan, and a plate cost two yuan. It's like pulling his flesh, and my heart aches.

Yi Zhonghai tentatively asked: "How about this?"

After hearing this, the waiter couldn't help asking, "How many of you are there?"

Yi Zhonghai: "Three."

"For three people, just this one dish, but I can't get enough! Do you want to order more?" The waiter couldn't help but said.

After Zhao Caixiu heard this, he also asked hesitantly: "Yes, Master Yi, the three of us, just one dish? Is it too little?"

Yi Zhonghai said: "We're talking about things, not really for food. It's a waste to order more than you can finish!"

After hearing Yi Zhonghai's words, the waiter couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Three people, one dish, are you afraid you won't be able to finish it?

It's really stingy, not only stingy, but also find such an excuse for yourself...

Zhao Caixiu asked again: "Then, do you want to order wine? Didn't you say to invite Deputy Factory Director Li? If there is no wine, it can't be justified, right?"

Yi Zhonghai thought about it, and it was the same reason, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Then I want another bottle of wine!"

After saying this, Yi Zhonghai hurriedly followed up:
"Ask for the cheapest one, we don't like expensive ones!"

After hearing this, the waiter couldn't help but glance at Yi Zhonghai again.

She has been a waiter for several years, and this is the first time she has seen such a picky person.

When you invite someone to dinner, you just order one dish and a bottle of wine, and you also specify that it must be the cheapest.

The waiter pulled a face, couldn't help curling his lips, and thought to himself: Why come to the restaurant if you don't have money?It's too embarrassing to treat guests like this.

After hearing Yi Zhonghai's words, Zhao Caixiu was also full of black lines.

This old man Yi Zhonghai is too picky, isn't he?
Just like this, he still wanted to ask Deputy Factory Manager Li for help. The three of them ordered such a dish and a bottle of wine, and he felt ashamed.

But, after all, he's just here to make money, so let's bear with it!
As soon as Zhao Caixiu finished thinking about it, Yi Zhonghai said with a smile: "By the way, Xiao Zhao, for today's meal, I asked Deputy Factory Manager Li to help us fix Zouhe together. This matter is between the two of us, so , the money for this meal, we both have to share it equally!"

When Zhao Caixiu heard this, her face turned black immediately.

It was obviously Yi Zhonghai who dragged him here halfway, so why did he have to pay in the end?

Zhao Caixiu was about to explode on the spot, but when he thought that there would be business to discuss later, he also thought that he didn't have much money anyway, the total was just over two yuan, so let's split it equally.Forget it.

The waiter looked at the two of them with a cold face, handed the menu to the back chef, and said, "Find a seat for yourself! Don't sit at a big table, there are few of you, just sit at a small table!"

The two nodded in response, found a seat and sat down.

Anxiously waiting for Deputy Director Li's arrival.

While the two were waiting anxiously, there was a burst of loud chatter and laughter from the door.

"Haha! I invite you for today's meal! None of you are allowed to steal from me!"

"No, no, I invite! I just got promoted to the fourth-level fitter this month, and my salary has also increased! I must invite you!"

Yi Zhonghai heard the voice very familiar, so he turned his head and looked at the door.

It didn't matter if it didn't matter, Yi Zhonghai's face turned pale with fright!
It was Zou He, Hou Lishan, Zhao Zhen and others who came here!
Zhao Caixiu also saw Zou He and the others at this time, and was startled immediately.

He quickly took a piece of paper and put it in front of his face.

Secretly winked at Yi Zhonghai, asking him to cover his face so as not to be seen.

Then he mouthed and said: What can I do?How did they come here?

Yi Zhonghai was also very anxious, he spread his arms and made unknowing movements.

At this time, the two of them couldn't care about anything else, and hurriedly and carefully avoided, for fear of being seen by Zou He and others.

While secretly observing a few of them.

I saw Zou He and other four or five people scrambling for a treat at the entrance of the restaurant.

When the waiter saw Zou He and the others, his expression brightened.

Immediately greeted with a smile.

"Yo! Isn't this Brother Zou, you and your brothers are here again?"

"Fast forward, fast forward, I'll arrange a seat for you right away!"

As soon as Yi Zhonghai heard it, he recognized it.

The waiter could recognize Zou He unexpectedly. It seemed that Zou He often came to this restaurant for dinner and was an old acquaintance.

Zou He nodded with a smile, and said, "Okay, you guys find a seat first, and we'll talk after dinner!"

Hou Lishan and the others had always obeyed Zou He's orders, so they had no choice but to follow the waiter inside and take their seats.

Hou Lishan was still arguing with Zhao Zhen: "After dinner, none of you are allowed to compete with me. I will pay today!"

Zhao Zhen: "No, no, no! I failed to pay last time, and it's my turn this time!"

Zou He glanced at the menu and ordered.

"One braised pork, one roast chicken, one fish with pickled cabbage, one pork knuckle in sauce, another preserved egg mixed with tofu, braised shrimp in oil, and two bottles of good wine!"

The waiter smiled happily after hearing this, and quickly memorized them one by one, and promised: "Okay, okay! Brother Zou, please take a seat, and I will arrange it for you immediately!"

This enthusiastic attitude was completely different from when he was facing Yi Zhonghai and Zhao Caixiu just now.

It was as if he had changed himself.

Yi Zhonghai felt sour in his heart, snorted, and said in a low voice: "A dog's eyes look down on people, and his face changes when he sees too many orders!"

Zhao Caixiu followed suit and said, "Exactly! Isn't it just to order more dishes? This waiter is too powerful!"

While discussing in low voices, they carefully covered their faces, for fear of being recognized by Zou He and others.

After a while, the food on the table of Zou He and others began to be served one after another.

As the dishes were served one after another, the aroma immediately filled the restaurant.

Looking at the ruddy and shiny braised pork, as well as the spicy and delicious roast chicken, Yi Zhonghai and Zhao Caixiu's saliva almost flowed out.

Have they ever eaten such a good thing?
The last time I ate meat, I don’t even remember it was the Year of the Monkey.

Yi Zhonghai, in particular, was used to frugality, and during the year, he could only eat meat for a while during the holidays.

They were all chopped up, mixed with vegetables, and made into dumplings.

There are several times more vegetables than meat, which has almost completely overwhelmed the aroma of the meat.

Thinking of Zou He's life of eating meat like this, he has never had it.

Zhao Caixiu swallowed her saliva, and sighed involuntarily: "This is what you call a restaurant..."

"Look at the dishes they ordered, and then look at ours..."

Zou He and the others talked and laughed loudly while eating, it was very lively.

In the corner, Yi Zhonghai and Zhao Caixiu were already hungry, their hearts sticking to their backs.My stomach has already rumbled a few times.

Zhao Caixiu looked at the gradually darkening sky and said, "Master Yi, this Deputy Factory Director Li hasn't come yet, so he won't be here?"

"It's so late, it's almost dark!"

Yi Zhonghai smelled the fragrance, swallowed his saliva, and said, "No way, Deputy Factory Manager Li said, he will definitely come!"

"Let's wait!"

At this moment, the waiter saw that Yi Zhonghai's table was delayed, so he walked over and asked loudly, "You two comrades, when will your stir-fried cabbage be served? Is your friend coming yet?"

When the waiter shouted this loudly, Yi Zhonghai was startled with fright.

I was afraid that Zou He and the others would turn around when they heard the voice and see him here.

Hastily waved his hand and said, "Wait a little longer! Wait a little longer!"

Hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, the waiter rolled his eyes and left again.

Yi Zhonghai secretly observed the direction of Zou He and the others. Fortunately, Zou He and the others were drinking and chatting on their own, and did not notice the corner where they were.

Only then did Yi Zhonghai heave a sigh of relief.

Anxiously looking outside the hotel.

That's right, Deputy Director Li, why hasn't he come yet?
