Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 137

When he arrived outside a compound, Chu Xiangqian took out his work card from his coat pocket without waiting for the guard on guard to speak.

And in order to avoid trouble, he put the armed belt and gun on his body into the warehouse just now.

After checking the ID, the guard asked Chu Xiangqian who he was looking for, and finally called and went in, and soon saw Xue Jianguo coming out on a bicycle to pick him up.

Entering the compound, when Chu Xiangqian and Xue Jianguo were chatting, a few half-sized boys looked at each other when they saw the two from a distance, and wondered who this kid was?

Zhang Haiyang clapped his palms fiercely, and said in a low voice, "Brothers, this kid can't be Sister Lan's blind date, right?"

It's true that Xue Jinglan has a cleanliness obsession, but it's not that she's really crazy or has mental problems.

On weekdays, getting along with people, speaking, dealing with people and doing things are all normal.

Coupled with the fact that she is pretty, for Zhang Haiyang, a half-sized man, while sympathizing with Xue Jinglan, he also regards Xue Jinglan as a cabbage in his own compound.

That's why he beat up that kid who had a blind date with Xue Jinglan back then and spoke ill of Xue Jinglan behind his back.

Seeing Chu Xiangqian acting like a dog now, he felt dissatisfied immediately.

"Let's go, let's try this kid's quality first, lest he look like a beast again."

The boys nodded hurriedly, followed Zhang Haiyang and ran towards Xue Jianguo and Chu Qianqian.

"Brother Jianguo, who is this buddy? You don't want to introduce him to us?"

Xue Jianguo could tell what Zhang Haiyang and the others were thinking at a glance, "Go away, don't blame my brother for not reminding you, the big fish I gave you last time was caught by my brother from the Yu River."

Zhang Haiyang was stunned for a moment, remembering the stick noodles he exchanged for half a fish in the pigeon market a few days ago, and the stewed fish made with the remaining half of a big fish.

Most of the hostility towards Chu Xiangqian subsided immediately.

Then he saw two bamboo baskets tied to the back seat of Chu Qianqian's bicycle.

A boy who looked twelve or thirteen years old stretched out his hand and wanted to open the bamboo cover to have a look.

Chu Xiangqian couldn't help frowning, and was about to teach this kid a lesson, when he saw Zhang Haiyang with sharp eyesight and quick hands, pulling his companion by the back collar and pulling him to his side.

"What are you doing! You're disgusting, aren't you?"

The kid was stunned for a moment, then he realized that he stretched out his hand to open the bamboo basket without even asking himself a single question.

Scratching his head in embarrassment and embarrassment, he muttered 'I just want to see'.

Zhang Haiyang slapped his companion on the forehead and said, "What are you looking at? If it spreads, don't you say that we are working together to bully outsiders?"

Then he smiled and nodded to Chu Xiangqian, muttered 'I'm sorry', and left with a few companions.

Chu Xiangqian looked at these little fellows differently.

And at this time, he also saw that this kid named Zhang Haiyang should be a character in a TV series.

Then I thought of Zhong Yuemin.

But if you think about it carefully, Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang really don't live in the same compound.

It's normal not to see him.

Xue Jianguo shook his head with a smile, "Moving forward, these boys are good, but they are a little noisy in the yard."

Chu Xiangqian nodded without paying attention, "Let's go, second brother, lest uncle and aunt wait too long."

Xue Jianguo was busy leading the way, but he said again, "Last time, Zhang Haiyang and those boys vented their anger on my sister. They put a sack on the kid from my father's friend's house outside and beat them hard."

Now it was Chu Xiangqian's turn to have an accident, although Xue Jianguo didn't say it clearly, but thinking about it, he knew it should be a blind date.

An older brother would have to keep this kind of thing a secret, but Xue Jianguo was lucky enough to say it directly.

I don't know whether to say that he has no brains, or that he is wise and stupid. It's better to say it clearly, so that everyone doesn't have to worry about Xue Jinglan's blind date and causing unnecessary troubles.

Chu Xiangqian laughed, "Then I have to treat them all to a good meal."

When Xue Jianguo saw what he said, he immediately became happy, "Then when I am free, you will provide the meat, and I will provide the wine and food, and then invite them to have a meal."

Chu Xiangqian smiled and nodded. If it was Zhong Yuemin, he would have to think about it. In fact, that kid is an unreliable master.

And counting the time, Zhong Yuemin might only be thirteen or fourteen years old at this time, and there is no need to deal with this kind of kid at all.

Then I thought of Zhou Xiaobai, maybe a little girl who was only about eleven or twelve years old.

I also lost interest in my heart.

Talking and laughing, the two arrived in front of a small two-story building, and saw Xue Hongmei and a 27-year-old young man in old-fashioned military uniform standing by the gate to greet them.

After thinking about it for a while, Chu Xiangqian guessed that this person should be Xue Jianguo's elder brother.

Sure enough, Xue Jianguo set up his bicycle and said to Chu Xiangqian, "Qianqian, this is my elder brother Xue Jianrong. As for my aunt, I definitely don't need my introduction."

Chu Xiangqian hurriedly got off the car, the eldest son of Xue went out to meet him, and the second son went out of the compound to pick him up, this was enough face.

After setting up his bicycle, he saluted Xue Jianrong who had already walked down the steps and offered his hand, and then shook hands with the other party.

"Brother Xue, my name is Chu Xiangqian."

Xue Jianrong's impression of Chu Xiangqian was originally excellent because of the unabashed praise from his aunt Xue Hongmei and second brother Xue Jianguo.

Now seeing Chu Xiangqian first saluting and then shaking hands with himself, the feeling is even better.

"Let's go, the weather is getting colder and colder, come in and have a cup of hot tea to keep warm."

Xue Hongmei couldn't help but feel a little proud of her eldest nephew's attitude towards Chu Xiangqian.

He secretly said that Chu Xiangqian was indeed the niece and son-in-law that he fell in love with at first sight. Even if he was the first to meet his eldest nephew, who had always been stern-faced, he could easily win his favor.

Seeing Xue Jianguo pursing his lips, he couldn't help ordering, "Jianguo, what are you still doing in a daze, quickly move the gift brought forward."

Xue Jianguo was even more upset now.

But he was also curious about what else Chu Xiangqian had brought here besides the half sika deer he had told him about.

After all, it is impossible for half a sika deer to need two bamboo baskets.

Chu Xiangqian hurriedly explained, "Second brother, I thought that Aunt Xue took such good care of me in the work unit, so I simply gave her a hind leg as a thank you. It's not that I didn't listen to you on purpose."

Only then did Xue Jianguo come to his senses, secretly thinking that this kid just knows how to behave.

But Xue Jianrong's eyes lit up.

It is said that there has never been a shortage of food in the army, but it is one thing to eat some, but it is difficult to eat enough to supplement nutrition for the subordinates.

Relying on the pigs raised by the army alone, at most they can eat a bite of butchered vegetables during the Chinese New Year.

Moreover, if the pigs are only fed with pig grass, the meat pigs will not gain much fat in a year.

As for hunting in the mountains, there was no shortage of people and weapons, but Xue Jianrong couldn't do anything if his superiors refused to let him go.

Strictly speaking, the prey in the mountains these days belonged to the collective property of the public or the villages and communes.

Ordinary people go to the mountains to hunt, no one cares about it, and the superiors even encourage it.But the troops wanted to go hunting in the mountains, so they just had to make reports.

And in the end, they basically disagreed.

Since Chu Xiangqian had the ability to go to the mountains to get game, and also to go fishing on the river in winter, Xue Jianrong naturally thought about how to get some meat and fish from Chu Xiangqian's hands to nourish his men.

Chu Xiangqian naturally had no objection to this, and was even willing to give him away for nothing.

After all, I am happy to give it to the people's soldiers.

But everything must have a charter or statement.

He will only help if the procedures and reasons are settled, otherwise, if you think about it, you will know that there will be trouble.

When Xue Jianrong heard that Chu Xiangqian took the initiative to mention this matter, his face was happy at first, but after hearing Chu Xiangqian said that he wanted to be famous, he couldn't help frowning.

But she didn't want Xue Hongmei to pat Chu Xiangqian on the shoulder, "It's easy, didn't our street say that we should distribute some meat to the poor households and military insurance households in the area?
Simply let the director report to the higher-ups, and help each other with Jianrong's unit.

We usually let the soldiers come to the area to dredge the river, repair the dilapidated houses, and train the militia. Our streets give back some food to the troops, and even cook a meal in the militia training ground, or even eat it directly in the wild. Who can say anything. "

Chu Xiangqian gave Xue Hongmei a thumbs up after listening to it. Even if he wanted to help his uncle, he couldn't pat his chest and guarantee the protein of a battalion of soldiers.

But if you come once a month, then things will be simple and easy to handle.

And it's good news for the street, too.

Even the benefits on the surface are all for the street, and Chu Xiangqian is willing.

Entering the room, Chu Xiangqian immediately saw Xue Xueli sitting on the main seat.

Seeing the old man with a sullen face, he hurriedly took the initiative to salute, and shouted loudly, "Hello, Chief."

Xue Xueli scanned Chu Xiangqian carefully, saw that he was tall and tall, and had a resolute face, and secretly thought that his two grandsons stood in front of him, and they were faintly compared.

Nodding in satisfaction.

On the side, Xue Xiaomin, Tan Youli, his wife, and the old lady had a good first impression of Chu Xiangqian.

He couldn't help but nodded slightly to Xue Hongmei, which was regarded as approval of her vision.

As for the protagonist Xue Jinglan, her face was already flushed at this time, and her nervous palms were full of sweat.

When she sneaked a glance at Chu Xiangqian, after seeing his parents and grandma greeted him, he happened to smile and nodded at him, and immediately lowered his head in embarrassment.

Seeing this, the corners of their mouths could not help but smile secretly.

Looking at it this way, the two have a good sense of each other. If Xiao Chu is really a clean person, then there will be a solid foundation for the two to achieve good things.

Xue Xiaomin looked at his own father Xue Xueli and said, "Dad, since Xiao Chu already knows us, why don't you invite Xiao Chu to have a drink?"

As soon as Chu Xiangqian heard it, he guessed that he definitely wanted to take the opportunity of drinking to see how he behaved after being drunk.

If you want to judge your character from the quality of wine, it is naturally incomplete, but if you don't make trouble when you are drunk, and don't talk too much, it can at least show that this person has a good personality.

Xue Xueli nodded.

When everyone was seated, Chu Xiangqian was naturally at the bottom, but Xue Xueli said he was dissatisfied with Chu Xiangqian, but he valued him very much in his heart.

Pulling Chu forward, he was about to sit on his left.

Chu Xiangqian didn't agree, so he turned around and went to help the old lady, "Grandma, I'll help you sit down."

The old lady smiled crookedly, and the others were also very satisfied with Chu Xiangqian's performance.

In the end, because the old lady sat on the left of the main seat, the woman naturally sat at her lower seat, and the man sat at Xue Xueli's right.

In such a light, after Chu Xiangqian and Xue Jinglan sat down, the two youngest were naturally only half a meter away from each other.

Chu Xiangqian wanted to talk to Xue Jinglan, but he knew in his heart that he must not show any frivolity at this time.

And even in the next few decades, it would be extremely impolite and mindless to whisper to a girl in front of her parents, grandparents, elder brother, and second brother.

Xue Jinglan was already flustered with embarrassment at this time, and even felt dizzy when she smelled the sunshine smell from Chu Xiangqian's clothes.

How dare you look up at Chu Xiangqian.

Xue Xueli gave his granddaughter a blank look, secretly thinking that Xue Jinglan was worthless.

Picking up a bottle of Zhuyeqing on the table, he asked, "Xiao Chu, how's your drinking capacity?"

Chu Xiangqian smiled, "Chief, the lie is that it's okay to be three to five catties, but the truth is that I haven't been drunk yet."

Everyone was taken aback, Tan Youli secretly glanced at sister-in-law Xue Hongmei, Xue Hongmei hurriedly shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't know about Chu Xiangqian's drinking.

Xue Xiaomin was about to say, today is just a family feast, just drink something casually.

But he didn't want Xue Xueli's eyes to light up, "Xiao Chu, if I drink you down later, don't blame me for drinking you."

Chu Xiangqian said indifferently, "Chief, if you want to drink with someone in the future, just take me there, and I promise not to embarrass you.

As for today's wine, why don't I have a few drinks with Brother Jianrong and Brother Jianguo? "

Everyone secretly thought that Chu Xiangqian wasn't bragging, after all, he clearly meant that he wanted a one-on-two.

If this is a lie, it is too easy to be exposed as a lie.

The old lady hurriedly said to Xue Xueli, "His father, I think it's enough to let Jianrong and Jianguo accompany Xiao Chu."

Xue Xueli knew what his wife meant. If a guest came to the house for the first time, three generations of grandparents and grandchildren would pour wine into the house, and it would not sound good to say it.

It's just that he was worried that Chu Xiangqian was deliberately using words to confuse himself after seeing through his own thoughts.

But after thinking about it, if Chu Xiangqian could really drink his two grandsons down, the amount of alcohol would be three to five catties at least.

"Okay, the three of you drink by yourself, but Jianrong and Jianguo must take care of Xiao Chu."

Xue Jianrong and Xue Jianguo hurriedly promised.

After Xue Xueli moved his chopsticks first, the atmosphere suddenly became lively.

Chu Xiangqian also noticed that Xue Jinglan, who was beside her, didn't show much abnormality when eating.

Little did they know, the Xue family at the table had long been amazed.

In the past, the Xue family ate with two pairs of chopsticks for each person in order to take care of Xue Jinglan.

Of course, if there were outsiders, the Xue family would not serve two pairs of chopsticks for the guests, and only men would serve the table.

Women eat all in the kitchen, so as not to spread more gossip, or even use this matter to cause trouble.

But today, Xue Jinglan seems to have forgotten her faults. Although she doesn't pick up vegetables with chopsticks very often, overall, she doesn't seem to have cleanliness at all.

Tan Youli rolled Xue Jinglan's eyes, secretly thinking that her daughter was hopeless.

But when you think about it, it's actually pretty good.

If he and Chu Qianqian go together in the future, at least there won't be too many troubles in life.

Chu Xiangqian looked at Xue Jinglan beside him after eating half a bowl of rice, put down the bowl and chopsticks and sat still in silence, and immediately wanted to go out with her for a walk.

Picking up the wine glass, he said to Xue Jianguo on the right, "Second brother, we have known each other for the longest time and get along best. This is the first time we drink, no matter how you say it, we have to drink three glasses to reflect our relationship."

Xue Jianguo looked at the wine glasses in front of him, at least three or two glasses, and was immediately startled by Chu Xiangqian's words that he had to drink three glasses.

No matter how good a drinker is, if he drank 3 glasses of 9 taels of white wine in a row, he would be on his head after drinking it.

But where would Chu Xiangqian be long-winded with him, he picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Xue Jianguo, and he felt bored when he raised his head.

This time he really drank it. After all, he cheated in the first cup, which is really unjustifiable.

After drinking three cups in succession, the momentum made Xue Jianrong feel ashamed.

After Xue Jianguo drank three cups, his stomach felt like it was on fire.

Chu Xiangqian laughed, picked up the wine bottle on the table and started pouring wine, and then went to toast Xue Jianrong's wine without any hesitation.
