Section 5 Family Banquet(1/2)
() After get off work in the afternoon, I followed Director Wu to his house. When I was almost at the door, I told Director Wu that I would come as soon as I got out. I ran away without waiting for him to agree. Director Wu looked at him with surprise on his face. I ran away without having time to say anything.
When I went to the street, I bought a pack of cigarettes, fruits and other things. With both hands full, I hurried towards Director Wu's house.
I knocked on the door gently twice, and the door opened. It was Director Wu.
"What are you doing?" Director Wu asked. He lowered his head to see what I was holding, and immediately said, "Young man, I asked you to have a casual meal at my house, what are you doing? Come on.
Come in! Come in quickly!”
I followed Director Wu into the room, walked through the corridor, and walked to the living room. I found that there were many people sitting in the living room, including Secretary Liu, whom I knew. I quickly put down the things in my hands and said: "Liu
Hello secretary!"
"How about you, Xiao Li." Secretary Liu replied with a smile, and then said with concern: "You are sweating profusely, go and wash your face."
I followed Director Wu to the bathroom, washed my face, and felt much more comfortable. After washing, I returned to the living room. A middle-aged woman wearing an apron brought me tea. I took it and said, "Thank you."
." The middle-aged woman said, "You're welcome," and then stepped aside and stood looking at me.
"Sit down, sit down and talk." Seeing me standing nervously, Director Wu immediately pulled me to sit next to him, and I put the tea cup on the coffee table.
"Xiao Li, let me introduce to you. This is Secretary Liu of our county Youth League Committee. You know her. This is her lover. Your name is Uncle Ke."
I quickly stood up and called out, "Hello, Uncle Ke."
"Child, you sit down and talk. Don't stand up all the time. How tiring it is." Director Wu pulled me to sit down again.
"This one," Director Wu said, pointing to a girl sitting on the single sofa, "this one is the daughter of Secretary Liu and Uncle Ke, Ke Wanfang, she is 20 years old, you will call her Xiao Ke, and she works in the Commerce Bureau
, she is also my niece."
I looked up and saw a girl with fine features and elegant features. She was wearing a navy blue top and a blue skirt, with her hands on her knees.
"Hello, Xiaoke." After a brief glance, I said quickly.
"It's good for you too." Xiao Ke replied.
"This is my lover, you can just call me Aunt Chen." Director Wu pointed at the woman standing next to me and said.
"Hello, Aunt Chen." I said. As I was about to stand up, Director Wu held me back.
"You're really tall!" Aunt Chen admired.
"Having introduced you, I would also like to introduce Xiao Li. Xiao Li's name is Li Xuanliu. He is 21 years old and is from Mingyang Town in this city. He is a genuine college student who graduated from the Provincial Public Security School. He has just graduated and is determined to return to work in our county.
He just came back recently and is currently working temporarily in our political department. He is a very potential comrade." Director Wu introduced me.
Okay, I’ve finished the introduction, let’s chat casually.” After talking for a long time, I guess Director Wu was also tired.
"Xiao Li, how many people are there in your family?" Secretary Liu asked.
"Four people, my parents, and a younger sister." I answered.
"Oh." Secretary Liu said, paused, and then asked, "Why do you think of going back to work in the county?"
"We graduated, and the school told me to go back to my hometown to work, so I came back." I replied.
"It's great to come back to work, and I can make a lot of achievements here." Secretary Liu said.
"Our girl is about the same age as you. You young people have many topics to talk about and need to communicate more." Secretary Liu did not forget to bring her daughter with her.
I didn't say anything, Director Wu touched me, and I quickly said: "Okay."
"Old lady, is the food ready?" Director Wu spoke.
"Okay, okay, you call me back and I'll start preparing. Now for dinner?" Aunt Chen answered.
"Secretary Liu is a very busy person, how can we let her wait for food?" Secretary Wu said.
Aunt Chen immediately put the dishes on the table, and Director Wu followed suit by placing bowls, chopsticks, cups, etc.
Then everyone sat down and gathered around a table. The table was not very big, so I guess Director Wu’s family usually didn’t have many people eating there.
After some humility, everyone sat down: Director Wu and Aunt Chen sat together, Secretary Liu and Uncle Ke sat together, Secretary Liu sat on the other side with Xiao Ke, and I sat next to Director Wu, with Director Wu on the left and Xiao Ke on the right.
.
After sitting down, Director Wu spoke, "It's rare for Secretary Liu to come to my humble home today. Let's all have a drink." After saying that, he opened a bottle of wine.
Director Wu poured everyone a glass of wine.
Then, he picked up the wine glass, stood up and said: "Secretary Liu, welcome your whole family and Xiao Li to my home. I'd like to propose a toast to you all." We all stood up immediately. Director Wu looked at me and Xiao Ke,
He continued: "Xiao Li, you and Fangfang need to communicate more."
After everyone finished their glasses of wine, Director Wu picked up the bottle. I quickly stood up, took the bottle, and said, "Director Wu, let me do it!"
"Young man is an elf." Director Wu praised him admiringly.
I also poured a cup for everyone, and then I raised my cup and said: "Director Wu, thank you, thank you for your concern for me, I'd like to toast you and Aunt Chen!"
Director Wu laughed and said, "Xiao Li, you should respect Secretary Liu and his family first."
Secretary Liu responded hurriedly, "I should respect you first, you are his leader." Uncle Ke also followed suit.
"Well, it's better to be respectful than to obey. Let's drink!" Director Wu and Aunt Chen finished the drink happily.
I filled up the wine for Director Wu and Aunt Chen, then filled up my own glass, and continued to raise my glass: "Secretary Liu, Uncle Ke, Xiao Ke, I also toast to your whole family. I wish you all the best in your work.
Family happiness.”
"Okay, let's take this glass of wine." Secretary Liu was very generous.
Everyone drank it all in one gulp, and I filled up the wine again.
Aunt Chen said: "Xiao Li, stop standing, sit down quickly, drink slower, eat more vegetables, eat more vegetables." After saying that, she put a piece of fish in my bowl and put it in Xiao Ke's bowl.
Piece of fish meat.
"Thank you, Aunt Chen." I replied. Xiao Ke also said, "Thank you, Aunt Chen."
"Look at how sensible these two children are!" Aunt Chen praised again.
As if he was praised, Xiao Ke stood up, raised his glass and said to Director Wu and Aunt Chen: "On behalf of the whole family, thank you."
Director Wu and Aunt Chen stood up: "This kid is too polite. Your parents and I have been friends for many years, why are you so polite?"
After saying that, all three of them were done, and I quickly came on again.
Xiao Ke did not sit down, but said to me: "On behalf of our whole family, I thank you for your blessing!"
I quickly stood up, clinked glasses with Xiao Ke, and the two of us started having sex again.
"Stop standing, don't stand, just sit and drink. It's so troublesome to stand up and sit down again." Director Wu said.
We both responded and sat down.
Secretary Liu and Uncle Ke raised their glasses to Director Wu and Aunt Chen, and they began to toast.
When I saw Xiao Ke and I were idle, I said to Xiao Ke, "Is it hard to go to work?"
"It's okay, it's not that hard. It's hard work for you as police officers." Xiao Ke responded.
"Hard work is nothing. How can young people be afraid of hardship?" I answered.
Look at Director Wu and the others, they have finished their drinks, and I filled them up again.
"You look like your muscles are so strong. Did you exercise in school?" Xiao Ke asked when she saw me sitting down again. I was wearing short sleeves, and she could see my arms at a glance.
"We train every day, including Sanda, fighting, running, etc., and we have become like this in a few years." I responded.
"Then teach me when you have time. I'm just looking for someone to learn from." Xiao Ke said.
"There's no problem with that, as long as you're not afraid of hard work." I said.
"I'm not afraid of hardship either." Xiao Ke looked fearless.
"Then let me toast you." I said.
"I still respect you. You have to teach me." Xiao Ke said with a smile.
"Then let's have a drink together." I said.
"Okay." Xiao Ke said.
Seeing that we had finished drinking, Secretary Liu said, "Xiao Li, let's have a drink too."
"Thank you, Secretary Liu." I stood up.
"Sit down, sit down, didn't Director Wu say we should sit down and drink?"
Our glasses clinked and we both drank.
I'll fill it up for everyone again.
Everyone drank the remaining wine in a happy mood, and the two bottles of wine were almost finished.
Director Wu was still urging us to drink, and Secretary Liu said: "You and your wife are too kind, so we can't drink any more. I have a meeting to hold in the evening."
"Secretary Liu? Then you won't drink anymore?" Director Wu said. Secretary Liu nodded and looked at Uncle Ke again. Uncle Ke said, "I can't drink anymore. I have something to do tonight."
Aunt Chen was busy serving food to everyone again, and the food was finished quickly.
Everyone returned to the living room, and Aunt Chen was busy pouring tea.
