Chapter 20: We Set Off (Please continue to give me strength, I don't dare ask brothers and sisters for rewards, but recommending and collecting is fine, please)
The waitress was a little girl, quite short, at most one meter five seven eight, but her eyebrows and eyes were clear and pure, and she was very cute. She brought the wine in with a smile, revealing two small tiger teeth, which made people like her.
The wine was placed on the table, and the waiter turned to leave. At this moment, Bai Laowang showed off his divine skills, stretching out his hand to block the waiter who was passing by his side. This guy was just drunk and dizzy, but not confused. His outstretched hand was neither high nor low, just hitting the lower part of the waiter's body. He did it on purpose, and anyone with discerning eyes could see that. After touching him, Bai Laowang smiled slyly.
"Would you please pour us some." The waitress naturally also knew that Bai Laowang was intentionally touching her there, but the customer is God, and if God is happy, then a touch here and there is no big deal, as long as they make a profit from opening the bottle. So she pretended like nothing had happened, responded with a "yes", and filled each glass to the brim.
Bai Lao Wan stared at her, a sly smile spreading across his face: "Miss, may I ask what you are called?"
The waiter carefully poured the wine and replied, "Wan Dongyue." Old Man Bai chuckled and said, "We have a good affinity, my name also has the character 'wan', why don't we become friends?" He started to flirt.
Wan Dongyue replied calmly, "Everyone who comes here to consume is my friend." He let Bai Laowang hit a snag without being too hard or too soft. Bai Laowang was not reconciled: "I'm not referring to that." Wan Dongyue smiled slyly and charmingly: "This will disappoint you." After pouring, he bypassed Bai Laowang and disappeared lightly at the door.
Bai Lao Wan Qi: "Tsk, pretending to be pure, but sooner or later you'll still end up being played by men."
Attracted by Wan Dongyue, a thought surged up in Bai Lao's heart. Looking at Luo Xiaotong, he chuckled: "Little Brother Xiaotong, do you have any plans for dinner?"
Lu Xiaotong naturally understood what he meant and said, "Yes, of course. Today, I must express my gratitude to the two brothers properly." He didn't forget Chen Huazhen's identity as town head, but intentionally called him "older brother" instead of "town head", which made them seem closer and more approachable.
Bai Lao was overjoyed and slammed his hand on the table: "I said that although Xiao Tong is not worldly, he has a sense of propriety. Chen Hua, you don't have to go back this afternoon, don't disappoint Xiao Tong's kind intentions."
Chen Hua had already decided on this course of action, but in her heart she was still very clear that she should maintain some reserve, lest this young man think that she took her work lightly.
Isn't that bad?
Luo Xiaotong pulled the chair closer to Chen Hua, almost sticking together: "Brother Chen, you see, usually you're busy, it's not easy to come out, just take a break for yourself, and also for better work tomorrow."
"Work is always the top priority," Chen Hua said, his face flushed with drink, but still wanting to show his attitude as a civil servant serving the people: "I've never neglected my public duties for personal reasons. However, today I met you, Xiao Tong, and I'm very happy, so let's put work aside for now and make up for it tomorrow."
Lu Xiaotong's heart ached, it seemed that all the money he brought today would be spent. However, his face showed extreme excitement, raising his wine cup: "Come on, I'll toast you. Chen Ge, I'll just call you Chen Ge from now on, and from now on, you two will be my brothers." He drank first, half a cup down, his face showing intoxication: "Brother, from now on, everything of mine can be entrusted to you." In fact, it was nothing much, drunk people speak easily, something he had read in books.
"Don't worry, kid, I've got it under control." Chen Hua also drank half a cup. Bai Laowang wanted to end early and drank more than half.
"Were you scared last night?" Chen Hua suddenly asked, seemingly very concerned.
Lu Xiaotong shook his head: "No, just curious." Since it was mentioned in this situation, Lu Xiaotong thought to say: "Why did they come to our courtyard to burn paper?" He regarded himself as a member of the town government.
"Fifteen years ago, their eldest daughter was also a town government employee," Chen Hua took a bite of his food and continued: "But later jumped from the third floor of the government building. The third floor, you know, is not very high, but she died, so every year on that day, her family comes to pay respects."
Luo Xiaotong thought for a moment, the third floor is high but not too high, and it's also suitable to say that it's not high. Jumping down from there wouldn't easily result in death either.
"Why jump off a building? There must be something wrong?" Chen Hua smiled and didn't answer. Changing the subject: "Did you see their little daughter last night?"
There must be something. Luo Xiaotong observed Chen Hua's expression, but Chen Hua didn't want to say anything. If he didn't want to say it, then there was no point in asking again. However, the little girl Chen Hua mentioned must have been Xiao Ye, so he nodded.
"Alas," Chen Hua sighed: "Why won't she just agree with me?"
Luo Xiaotong was surprised: "Chen Ge has taken a liking to her?" Chen Hua, already drunk, forgot to maintain his dignity: "Don't get me wrong, kid. I'm not just being lustful, I really like her. I want to marry her."
Luo Xiaotong was delighted in his heart. You, Chen Hua, are so old, and you still want to marry Xiao Ye? An old cow eating tender grass!
"Hehe, Brother Chen, with your current status, which woman wouldn't throw herself at you? But to say that bringing one back home is unrealistic, right? Would your wife agree?"
Bai Lao Wan had already fallen onto the table, but he still had spirit: "Nonsense, didn't you know that Chen Hua had divorced long ago? Does a single man need his ex-wife's agreement to marry again?"
Lu Xiaotong explained: "So that's how it is, I didn't know." Chen Hua grabbed Lu Xiaotong's hand, looking comical and on the verge of tears: "Younger brother, tell me, I'm a deputy town head with a bright future ahead. Xiao Ye followed me, she has no worries about food or drink, and her life is glorious, so why doesn't she agree?" Lu Xiaotong really wanted to laugh, this guy was chasing after women but couldn't get any, a deputy town head who had become so pathetic.
Bai Laowang's true colors were revealed, and he almost jumped up: "Chen Hua, my younger brother, isn't that little Ye just refusing you? No big deal, one day I'll bring a few brothers to get her to your house, you can have your way with her, turn the uncooked rice into cooked rice, see if she still doesn't agree." Chen Hua glared at him: "Nonsense! I've never liked a girl like this before. Forcing someone against their will? I couldn't do it!" Bai Laowang's drunken words spilled out: "Or else, I'll do it myself, make her unable to show her face in public, see if she agrees or not?" As soon as he said this, Chen Hua's eyes flashed with a fierce light: "You dare to touch the woman I want?!" Bai Laowang only then realized he had misspoken and apologized repeatedly, saying it was because he was also anxious on Chen Hua's behalf that he spoke without thinking.
Chen Hua was furious: "Remember, even if you speak freely, you can't say it like that."
Bai Laowang nodded repeatedly. Although he was drunk, he still knew that Chen Hua was not someone to be trifled with. Luo Xiaotong looked at Bai Laowang. Power is really useful, in front of Chen Hua, he's just a yes-man.
After dinner, Bai Laowang was the first to rush out and went to find A Mei. Chen Hua was busy going to the toilet, while Luo Xiaotong was concerned about how much this meal cost. When he went to the counter to pay, it was over 700. He was shocked in his heart, why is it so expensive? Wanting to ask, he endured it, afraid of being laughed at. Bai Laowang shouted from afar, telling the counter that the commission for this bill should be recorded on A Mei's account. The counter miss smiled happily: "Don't worry, White Brother, we would have done that even if you didn't say so."
After paying the money, Luo Xiaotong stood there waiting for Chen Hua. Bai Laowang was still there, pestering A Mei shamelessly.
"Look, Ah Mei, I'm always thinking of you when something good comes up. When are you going to think of me and give me some benefits?"
Amber giggled: "Bai Ge, I know what you're thinking, thank you. But recently, my boyfriend and I have been on fire, if he knew I was having dinner with another man, wouldn't he kill me?" She intentionally emphasized the words "what's going on" to let Bai Laowang understand that she knew his thoughts.
"Good sister, I just want to hug you, I won't ask you for anything else."
Amber smiled with pursed lips: "Keep your voice down, Bai Ge. If the boss hears us, I'll be fired!" As she spoke, she opened the door and welcomed a customer in. After the customer entered, he looked at Old White still following behind him like a lapdog, furrowed his brow, but still smiled and said: "I understand what you're thinking, Bai Ge, but not now."
"When is it going to work?" Bai Laowang was taken aback and immediately pinned this woman down.
Amber said: "Didn't I tell you, there will be opportunities, it's just absolutely impossible now."
Bai Lao Wan continued to persuade Chen Hua, who had just come out of the toilet. It seemed that he had vomited in the toilet, and there was still some toilet paper stuck at the corner of his mouth.
"Lao Wan," Chen Hua walked towards Bai Lao Wan with a slight stagger: "Don't get distracted by beautiful women, this is Longhe, don't forget, it's not a place for you to act wildly." Chen Hua knew the boss's background here, he was just a small deputy town head of a rural town, and couldn't even be seen in public, let alone provoke him.
Bai Lao smiled slyly: "How dare I be unruly here, brother misunderstood me, I'm chatting with my sister!" He looked at A Mei and said: "Am I right, sister?" A Mei nodded in agreement.
"That's good, my brother can't cause trouble here," Chen Hua said, beckoning Luo Xiaotong: "Let's go." Bai Laowang waved to Ah Mei: "Good sister, I'll wait for you then." Ah Mei smiled and didn't say a word. Bai Laowang turned around, looking at Chen Hua and Luo Xiaotong with renewed determination: "We're off."
