Ordinary people's rice bowl

Chapter 780
The dinner was set on the second floor of Tingyu Building. As soon as Mu Zhen entered the private room, she saw two unfamiliar faces. Even though they were not wearing uniforms, Mu Zhen could guess that these two must be the leaders of the system.

Da'an pointed to the tall and thin man, and introduced to Xia Yu: "This is our Director Wu!"

Xia Yu hurriedly stepped forward and shook hands with Director Wu and said, "Thank you for your hospitality!"

Director Wu naturally replied politely: "Welcome distinguished guest, since you are our Director Wei's friend, you are also our friend!"

"This is Commissar Yu!"

Political Commissar Yu went up to shake hands with Xia Yu, and was naturally polite for a while. After everyone sat down, before Xia Yu introduced Mu Zhen to everyone, Wei Daan said, "Today there is another friend of Mr. Xia Yu. , let me introduce to you, this Mu Zhen used to be a reporter for my newspaper, and now she is the head of the workstation of a state-level media stationed in the provincial capital!"

When Mu Zhen heard Da An introduce herself, she quickly stood up and nodded to the two leaders.As for the intention of coming, Da'an did not express. At this time, Da'an knew in his heart that he should try not to disturb the local leaders about Mu Zhen's affairs, so he said: "To welcome the two of you today, we have prepared a light meal. Mr. Xia Yu made it clear when he came, We don’t know how to drink, so we don’t have to be polite today, just having a light meal is enough! End the banquet as soon as possible so that Mr. Xia Yu can rest well and return to Jishi tomorrow!”

Da'an's words made the two Gucheng leaders a little baffled. The banquet that was originally prepared was largely avoided by Da'an's words. Director Wu felt very sorry and said: "We feel a little shabby by Wei Bureau's words, so prepare some thin wine. How can there be no shortage of wine in Chinese banquets!"

"I'm really overwhelmed with alcohol. I didn't intend to bother you. It was just because the directors contacted you when I came here. I didn't expect you to pay so much attention to it. I am very grateful. If I have the opportunity to go to country B in the future, I will definitely do my best to give it to you." Help." After Xia Yu finished speaking, she clasped her fists together to express her gratitude again.

"You can't drink, let this stationmaster Mu have a drink!" Director Wu said.

"I know this stationmaster Mu very well. It turns out that when I was at the newspaper office, I didn't drink at all, so I shouldn't have to worry about it!" Da'an hurriedly took Director Wu's words and replied.

Da'an's words made Director Wu smile bitterly as if embarrassed, and smoothed things over to the political commissar, "That's optional, as long as everyone enjoys it!"

"Okay, follow our political commissar's instructions, whatever you want, whatever you want, just enjoy yourself!" Director Wu finished speaking, took a sip of water from the cup in front of him, and signaled the waiter to serve the food.

Mu Zhen noticed that although there were only five people sitting on the table and no drinks were arranged, the dishes on the table were very rich. Introduction, each dish has its own particularity. According to the standard of lunch, it is difficult to take down half of the meals on this table.

In this small county, having such a standard really made Mu Zhen speechless!

Just as Daan said, there is no need to push the cups and change the cups, which saves a lot of things. Mu Zhen has participated in large and small receptions in the past few years, and this is the first time that she has experienced such a fast banquet.

At the banquet, apart from some polite words, Director Wu introduced the origin of Gucheng County, the local customs, etc. Obviously, these words were mainly for Xia Yu. Xia Yu sometimes listened carefully, and sometimes asked some questions. Sometimes she nods at the words of Director Wu. These off-topic words are not of concern to Mu Zhen. After all, she has lived here for so many years and knows something about the situation here. Director Wu's previously unheard-of situation was all forgotten, and he couldn't remember half a sentence.

What Mu Zhen paid most attention to was Daan's words to save her at the wine table. That way—blood is thicker than water, relatives are relatives, no matter where you go, the blood that flows in your bones is connected, just like the descendants of the Chinese nation, no matter where they live in the world, they will always be imprinted with the blood of China, Elegantly called "Overseas Chinese".

Da'an's short words have offset most of the shadows hidden in Mu Zhen's heart when she was assigned after graduation.
