182. The Declining Country of Jiangshan Machines

How many taverns are there in this city and which one has any special dishes? I guess there is nothing more clear than Wu Xiaobo. This kid can see the doors of these places all day long.

He found a quiet place with a second floor with a quiet environment. He asked for a private room on the second floor and sat there face to face with Liu Wancheng.

This kind of occasion is just emerging in the city and is specially prepared for lovers' meetings. The dishes are not very good, and the prices are really not cheap.

Liu Wancheng blamed Wu Xiaobo: "I said, why are you leading me to a place like this? It's too inappropriate to sit here, right?"

Wu Xiaobo said: "Where are you so poor? You're almost done with eating. If you think the food here is not good, don't eat it. If you have alcohol, just finish it. Where do you want me and you? Go to the island cafe for coffee. Is that something we enjoy?"

After Liu Wancheng thought about it, he was right. At least the environment here is elegant and no one disturbed his words.

"Okay, your father is the village chief, and you all listen to you." He joked with Wu Xiaobo.

Wu Xiaobo did not ask for foreign wine, but still wanted high-quality liquor. The waiter sent the liquor over. Wu Xiaobo opened it and filled the high-legged glasses in front of Liu Wancheng and himself. Then he picked it up and fucked it in one gulp. After a long time, he sighed: "It's so interesting to drink like this!"

Liu Wancheng looked at him and smiled: "I remember when you opened a barber shop, you were so cute. What about the ladies, why did you lose any problem during this period?"

Wu Xiaobo looked at him and asked, "Have you seen me open a hair salon?"

Liu Wancheng realized that he had been talking. But the words had already been spoken and could not be recycled, so he said, "Why have you never seen them? Sometimes I walk down the street where you run a barber shop, but I just haven't entered."

Wu Xiaobo said, "Correction, brother." This sentence made me feel a sissy, but he pretended on purpose, "That's called a hairdressing and beauty shop, not a barber shop, I won't cut hair for men."

Liu Wancheng almost made him laugh and said, "You should talk well, my teeth are almost falling down when you do this."

Wu Xiaobo returned to normal and said, "Everything is learned, you don't understand this. A big man will clean up his head for women and touch them on their heads and faces. They will be wary. If you move a little harder, they will think that you are deliberately taking advantage of them. Therefore, you should try to get close to them in body and language, so that they will unconsciously treat you as a kind of person and forget your gender. Over time, they will recognize you and accept you. They would rather let you help them with hair salons than find female barbers like him. Do you understand?"

Liu Wancheng couldn't help but nod. Wu Xiaobo was good at thinking and was born with marketing potential. No wonder he could do his business so well.

Liu Wancheng couldn't help but give him a thumbs up: "I'm convinced, I'll learn a trick from you today."

Wu Xiaobo pointed to the wine glass that was still full of Liu Wancheng: "Drink first, don't let the ladies."

Liu Wancheng picked up the wine glass, and like Wu Xiaobo, he drank it in one breath, breathing a sigh of relief: "It's so good!"

With the wine at noon at the bottom, the two of them whipped up their glasses again, and they only drank alcohol and did not eat vegetables, so they all drank almost the same. In fact, the two of them came here to find drunkenness and feel comfortable.

Wu Xiaobo half lay on the table and looked at Liu Wancheng with drunken eyes. Liu Wancheng was also drunk, leaning against the back of the sofa, and his eyes could not be opened.

Wu Xiaobo asked Liu Wancheng: "I said, how did you get together?"

His tongue was a little big, and his voice was not very clear.

Liu Wancheng opened his eyes slightly and asked, "Who are you talking about?"

"Who else are you and Gao Xiuju?" Wu Xiaobo said silly, "Don't pretend to be confused for me, you love her, I know."

Liu Wancheng raised his hand, rubbed his gradually blurred eyes, and muttered in ambiguous manner: "I loved her twenty years ago, and I spoiled her without any hesitation, and spoiled her. In this life, she should suffer some pain and cultivate her temperament. She chose both good and bad by herself, and I did everything I could."

Wu Xiaobo probably didn't hear what he said clearly. He sat there for a while, leaned back on the sofa and muttered at Liu Wancheng: "She followed you, I have no objection at all. Since you love her, why do you still have to be with Xu Jie? Why don't you chase her?"

When Liu Wanchengguang heard him muttering Xu Jie, he interjected and said, "Whether Gao Xiuju or Xu Jie, which woman wants her man to eat the bowl and look at the pot? You playboy continue to be like this. Which good woman is willing to marry you? Who can be so happy after following you? You are not young anymore, please calm down. As long as you change your bad habits, you must have a good woman willing to follow you, and you must have a happy home..."

The two of them said their own words, and no one was next to each other. After a while, they felt bored and shut up at the same time, and the room suddenly became quiet.

After a while, Liu Wancheng muttered: "She is not happy."

Wu Xiaobo then said, "There is no smile on his face. I originally wanted to tease her, so I asked her to scold her. Looking at her like that, my heart was so sad that I almost fell from tears. When she was with me, she was not like this."

Liu Wancheng smiled contemptuously: "Do you think that when you are with you, she is called happiness? That is at most, she is called happiness. You have never seen her when she is happy."

Wu Xiaobo was dissatisfied: "Have you seen it?"

Of course, Liu Wancheng had seen her. At that time, Gao Xiuju had a flushed face, her mouth was slightly raised, and her smile came from her heart. When she was with Liu Wancheng, she was truly happy.

However, such happiness did not last long. As Gao Qiang had an accident, their conflict began. There were his reasons and Gao Xiuju’s reasons. In short, they shouldn’t have been together at first.

Seeing that Liu Wancheng didn't answer, Wu Xiaobo smiled foolishly: "You can brag." Then he screamed loudly, "I dare say that Gao Xiuju was the happiest when she was with me! It was all you, who broke up a happy couple for us!"

Liu Wancheng was silent, perhaps because he fell asleep, and he never took over Wu Xiaobo's words.

Wu Xiaobo suddenly started crying in a low voice. After a while, he said in a crying voice: "But, I have never dared to kiss her, let alone hug her. I just hold her hand and look at her happy time. Such a beautiful beauty is so cheap that the boy named Xian is not willing to give up!"

Liu Wancheng heard all of Wu Xiaobo's words. He suspected that Wu Xiaobo had been wearing a cuckold for twenty years. Now he could feel at ease that he would not have it at all.

But, does this still make sense

Xu Yan finally came back on the 10th day of the twelfth lunar month before the New Year, and promised to leave after the first lunar month. In this way, Xu Jie could agree to Liu Wancheng's request and follow Liu Wancheng back to her hometown during the New Year holiday.

In that world in the past, Liu Wancheng had heard of Xu Yan's name because this woman was considered a celebrity in the entire Jiangshan Machinery Factory. Her story with those "skinned children" who were not doing it, and her story with Director XX and Director XX were all the topics of conversations among the gossiping women in the dormitory area, after dinner.

It is her stories with eroticism and exaggeration that have influenced Xu Jie's heart and made her protect her reputation like a lunatic.

When Liu Wancheng graduated from university and was assigned here, Xu Yan rarely appeared in the dormitory area of ​​Jiangshan Machinery Factory. After he got to know Xu Jie, he also talked about Xu Yan.

When talking about her sister, Xu Jie is sad due to the interweaving of love and hate. She influenced Xu Jie's normal life path and made her eventually become an old girl.

But from the information revealed by Xu Jie, Liu Wancheng knew that Xu Yan seemed to be in a big city like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. Xu Jie couldn't tell where it was. Anyway, sometimes she came back from Beijing, and sometimes she came back from Guangzhou, without a proper place.

She never tells the truth to her family what she does outside. She sometimes says she is doing business in the company, and sometimes says she is doing business, which is also possible.

Later, Liu Wancheng secretly speculated that she might have been in a flesh-and-skinned business. Because according to Xu Jie, every time she came back, she dressed very fashionable and ignored the skinny children she played with in the past. When she left, she would often leave Xu Jie with hundreds of dollars and ask her to take good care of her father. When she got married outside, she would pick them up.

He can stay in a big city, but he has no ability to take over his father and sister, and he has no place to live. A beautiful woman who has no education, what else can she do except to do that job?

This was just a private guess by Liu Wancheng, but he never dared to mention it to Xu Jie.

A few years later, Xu Jie's father died. Xu Yan came back and died with Xu Jie. At that time, Jiangshan Machinery Factory was already half dead and began to pay incomplete wages from time to time.

Xu Yan asked Xu Jie to follow her. Xu Jie was thinking about Liu Wancheng and did not agree.

Two more years later, Xu Jie might have lost hope for Liu Wancheng, so she left. Before leaving, she went to Liu Wancheng's house to say goodbye.

Liu Wancheng still doesn't understand why she came to his house and guarded Gao Xiuju to say goodbye to him? The two of them found a quiet place and separated quietly, wouldn't it be more romantic?

According to Xu Jie, she went to find Xu Yan. At that time, Xu Yan was in Beijing, and Xu Jie still didn't know what she did. However, Xu Yan found a job for Xu Jie and conducted a check-in inspection in a foreign trade company. Her monthly salary was 18,000 yuan, and it was fine whenever she registered.

From this last message, if this information is true, it means that Xu Yan did make a name for herself later and was doing very well.

After Xu Jie left, she never wrote to Liu Wancheng and never contacted him in any way.

It is precisely because of Xu Jie's departure that Liu Wancheng and Gao Xiuju's marriage entered a deeper crisis.

In his heart, he was always worried about Xu Jie, and he always cared about her. He had the urge to leave Jiangshan Machinery Factory several times and went to find Xu Jie alone.

This is a kind of helplessness and sadness that cannot be described in words.

Fortunately, today, Liu Wancheng can finally make up for the regrets before, which is his greatest relief.
