Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things

Swish!

Everyone looked at Lin Shaowen.

"Why are you not going to give gifts, but looking at him?" An Lan asked curiously.

Everyone ignored him and moved their eyes from Lin Shaowen to Qin Jingru.

"Give five dollars."

Qin Jingru pouted, "It's not a childbirth or wedding, it's just a promotion banquet."

"Qin Jingru, what do you mean? Promotion is a small matter?" Liu Haizhong said unhappily.

"Well, if you think it's too little, I won't give it."

Qin Jingru sneered, "Second uncle, my family doesn't lack this meat to eat..."

"Don't worry."

Li Lingling hurriedly hugged her and said softly, "Jingru, don't you know my dad's character? He has a sharp tongue. Don't pay attention to him. No matter how much you give, it's a thoughtful gesture."

"It's just for your and Boss Liu's sake, otherwise I won't eat this meal."

Qin Jingru glanced at Liu Haizhong and walked towards Yan Bugui.

Others followed closely.

"Dad, please don't provoke her, okay?" Liu Guangqi said helplessly, "If Qin Jingru didn't send it, believe it or not... Shazhu, Xu Damao and the women in the west courtyard wouldn't send it."

"What's her status? Can she afford to send five dollars?" Liu Haizhong said indignantly.

"What's her status? It's true that she is a minister, but now my godfather has just been removed, and she is in a bad mood... If you provoke her, you will be in trouble." Liu Guangfu curled his lips.

"Hey, am I afraid of her? If she doesn't send it, then she won't send it. What's the big deal?" Liu Haizhong said angrily.

"Don't shout, don't shout."

Li Ling scolded, "Dad, this promotion banquet is between Guangqi and me, don't worry about it, okay? If you shout... then we won't be able to get back for this meal."

Although there are many people in the yard, most of them are miserable.

They gave one or two yuan, and the whole family took up three or four seats. Take Yi Zhonghai for example, he gave ten yuan, but the whole family of six came, almost occupying the whole table, which was not much of a profit.

Lin Shaowen was different, he gave five yuan, and he had dinner with Qin Jingru, and Yu Li and Yu Haitang were even more different, five yuan per person... Where can you find such a good thing?

Liu Haizhong wanted to say something, but Liu Guangqi and Li Ling ignored him and ran to take seats.

After all, who among the young people in the courtyard didn't want to sit at the same table with Lin Shaowen, drink good wine, have fun... The most important thing is to have face.

Unconsciously, Lin Shaowen has become the core of the young generation of the Siheyuan.

At the dinner table.

The women in the West Wing invited An Lan to their table, but An Lan refused and sat at Lin Shaowen's table.

"Minister An, Qin Jingru and her friends are drinking red wine at the table, but we are drinking white wine at this table." Xu Damao joked.

"That's right, Li Ling is sitting at that table." Liu Guangqi laughed.

"Xu Damao, why didn't your wife go?" An Lan asked curiously.

"Why did her wife go?"

Sha Zhu said disdainfully, "Everyone at that table has a job, they are going shopping together... Does she have money?"

"Sha Zhu..."

Yan Fengyu scolded, "I rely on my husband, you rely on your wife, we won't say anything to each other."

Puff!

Lin Shaowen laughed first, and the table was filled with laughter for a while.

"Yan Fengyu, don't talk nonsense, when did I rely on my wife?" Sha Zhu said with a flushed face.

"You don't rely on your wife? What you wear, what you wear... which one is not bought by your wife?" Yan Fengyu said disdainfully, "If it weren't for Zhang Wan, would you have a bicycle? A TV? You are still like a beggar now."

"You..."

Sha Zhu stood up angrily.

"Hey, Sha Zhu, my wife is from the countryside, she is a bit straightforward, why do you care about her?" Xu Damao chuckled.

"Xu Damao, don't be so proud, don't think I don't know your little things." Sha Zhu gritted his teeth and said, "You are just a small projectionist, bicycle, watch... where did you get them?"

"Only you are allowed to take private work, not me?" Xu Damao said reservedly.

"Oh? Old Xu, have you found a new way?" Lin Shaowen asked curiously.

"It's not a new way, it's just that someone got two projectors...showing along the street, negotiating the price with the street office, 80 per show, I take 20." Xu Damao laughed.

"Wow."

The whole table was in uproar.

"Old Xu, this thing is speculation, right?" Liu Guangqi frowned.

"It depends on how you think about it."

Xu Damao pouted, "Anyway, if the people don't sue, the officials won't investigate... There are also people from the joint defense who come to our place to watch movies, and they didn't say anything, right?"

"Old Lin, you have been a factory director, what do you say about this?" Sha Zhu said seriously.

"What can I say about this?"

Lin Shaowen shook his head"Are those who can get a projector these days ordinary people? Most likely they are children of the big courtyards..."

"Lin Shaowen, aren't you a child of the big courtyard?" An Lan joked.

"I am a nobody from the big courtyard. If I had connections, could I still be a security guard?" Lin Shaowen laughed and scolded.

"That's right."

Xu Damao sighed, "Old Lin is at a disadvantage because of his temper. Isn't your grandfather powerful? You should bow your head and be submissive. If that doesn't work, you can kneel down and kowtow."

"Old Xu, why don't you kowtow to me and I will say something good for you? You can be a deputy director anyway." Lin Shaowen laughed.

"Don't worry, I eat well and sleep well now, I won't suffer that loss." Xu Damao pouted.

"That's it, I can just go out and see patients and earn some living expenses, right? Why would I go looking for trouble?" Lin Shaowen raised his glass and said, "Minister Liu... hurry up and say a few words, then we can have dinner."

Swish!

Everyone looked at Liu Guangqi.

"Cough cough cough..."

After coughing twice, he stood up and raised his glass and said, "We are all brothers and sisters from the same courtyard. Thank you all for coming to support us... Cheers."

"Cheers."

Everyone raised their glasses.

"Old rules, Old Lin, tell me what kind of wine this is." Xu Damao said with a smile.

"Isn't this the five-year-old Gujing Gongjiu?"

An Lan's words stunned everyone.

"Minister An, can you tell?" Xu Damao said cautiously.

"What can't you drink out of this?" An Lan chuckled, "Lin Shaowen... Aren't you a doctor? Why are you interested in wine?"

"Then you don't know."

Sha Zhu praised, "If it's other things, I'm still unconvinced... But when it comes to drinking, Old Lin is the best I've ever seen."

"Don't fucking talk nonsense."

Lin Shaowen laughed and scolded, "Do you know how much wine we have in China? You dare to say such things... If people remember it, then there will be fun."

Liu Guangqi rolled his eyes and chuckled, "It's meaningless for us to just drink like this... I still have a few jars of good wine at home, how about we play a game?"

"How to play?"

Everyone immediately became interested.
