Chapter 848 [Drink only three cups] (2)
Qiao Mengyuan still noticed his displeasure with this from the subtle changes of his father's expression. He held his father's arm and asked him to sit on the sofa. He poured him a cup of tea and said softly: "Dad, mom is in a bad mood recently and doesn't want to go out, so I want to ask the master to come to the house to enlighten her." Qiao Zhenliang glanced at Zhang Yang. Zhang Daguanren thought that he was doing bad things today. Secretary Qiao must think that he was too troublesome and did nothing, so he could only pretend to be stupid. Zhang Daguanren sat there without saying a word. Anyway, Qiao Mengyuan is there anyone else. Of course, he guessed that this matter was 100% arranged by Zhang Yang. This kid knew everyone, but is it not a matter of taking a monk to his home?
Qiao Mengyuan said, "Dad, it was me who asked Zhang Yang to help invite Master Sanbao to come over. Zhang Yang also specially asked Master Sanbao to put on his clothes, just because he was afraid of being seen by others. Do you think he is too worried about him?" Qiao Mengyuan said ingeniously. When Qiao Zhenliang heard his daughter say this, she immediately understood that she was helping Zhang Yang, and explained this matter clearly and told herself not to be too suspicious. He smiled and said, "You guys, what should I say to you?" [bsp; Qiao Mengyuan said, "Dad! Isn't this for my mother? In your own home, don't emphasize the principle of party spirit, can you turn a blind eye?"
Qiao Zhenliang smiled and said, "Okay, OK, OK!" He took a sip of tea and said to Zhang Yang, "Zhang Yang, let's have dinner together tonight."
Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "I will have to take Master Sanbao out for vegetarian food later."
Qiao Zhenliang did not consider this level. He was not familiar with Monk Sanbao and did not intend to keep Monk at home for dinner. This was not because Qiao Zhenliang was not enthusiastic enough, but because he felt that this matter was awkward. Qiao Mengyuan said, "Dad, I will take them back to the Qinglin Vegetarian Restaurant to eat. I have already booked a seat."
Qiao Zhenliang nodded, his daughter was quite considerate in thinking about things.
Zhang Yang remembered the matter of Sanbao Monk asking him. In fact, their Xincheng District Command had also asked about this matter. However, the timber poison hiding was treated as a major case by the Provincial Department. Although Zhang Yang and Jiang Liang, the person in charge of the case, were friends, Jiang Liang was also very serious when it came to business. If the formal procedures were followed, Qiuxia Temple would not resume work smoothly in the short term. There was an opportunity in front of him, so Grand Official Zhang told Qiao Zhenliang about this matter. After hearing this, Qiao Zhenliang said, "Has the matter been found out?"
Zhang Yang said: "I don't know either. It's just that the provincial department said that the case is serious and it takes time to investigate, so the Qiuxia Temple construction site is there. The reconstruction of Qiuxia Temple is a key project in our new urban area, and this matter involves the relationship between the two sides of the shore, so I think if the suspension of work is too long, it will have adverse effects."
Qiao Zhenliang was very happy to do things, so he immediately picked up the phone and called Gao Zhonghe, the director of the Provincial Public Security Department. Gao Zhonghe felt a little strange when he heard Qiao Zhenliang ask about this matter. When did the Provincial Party Secretary start to pay attention to such small matters? Qiao Zhenliang reiterated what Zhang Yang said just now and finally concluded: "I don't think this matter can always be delayed. If something happens, it must be resolved immediately. Since it has proved that these Buddhist disciples have nothing to do with this drug trafficking case, they must return the innocence to others. Resuming work as soon as possible. Even if there is still a case, you can send someone to the construction site to investigate!" Secretary Qiao hung up the phone after saying that. Zhang Yang looked at Qiao Zhenliang with a smile. This matter must be done, as long as Secretary Qiao sends it.
Of course, Gao Zhonghe didn't dare to disobey his words. He should be able to resume work normally tomorrow. Monk Sanbao taught Meng Chuanmei a Buddhist scripture for an hour and a half, and then walked out of the Buddhist temple. Meng Chuanmei actually sent him down in person. This was rare for Meng Chuanmei. Qiao Zhenliang couldn't help but look at Sanbao more. It seemed that this monk was still capable. Although Monk Sanbao knew that Qiao Zhenliang was the clerk of the provincial party committee, he also acted neither humble nor arrogant in front of Meng Chuanmei. This guy's mind was extremely flexible. Zhang Yang positioned him as a monk with profound Buddhist teachings and invited him to the Qiao family. If he saw the servitude and humble appearance of the Qiao family, it would definitely be looked down upon by others. It was called self-destruction. Three treasures were so smart, of course they would not do it.
The Three Treasures Monk closed his hands to Qiao Zhenliang, pronounced the Buddha's name with a calm expression, and showed the appearance of a monk on his face.
Qiao Zhenliang also said politely: "Thank you for your hard work, Master."
Monk Sanbao said: "Everything in the world is a practice for us monks, so why is it hard?" He smiled and said goodbye. Zhang Yang rushed to the hall and did not forget to stick the baseball cap on his bare head.
Qiao Zhenliang saw the scene in front of him and felt that Zhang Yang was a little nonsense, but he thought that this method was indeed necessary. He whispered to Qiao Mengyuan: "Why do you have to be so troublesome? Just let Zhang Yang drive the car directly to our garage."
Qiao Mengyuan smiled and said, "He doesn't have that kind of sensuality." Qiao Zhenliang said, "He may not be less sensual than you!"
Qinglin Vegetarian Restaurant is one of the more famous Vegetarian Restaurants in Dongjiang. It is located outside Baoyan Temple. It is often visited by monks, so it would not seem too abrupt to bring monk Sanbao to dinner. Sanbao had already taken off all the disguises when he got off the car. If Qiao Mengyuan had not been present, he would have complained loudly.
The three of them came to the room that Qiao Mengyuan had booked in advance. In order to thank the monk Sanbao for coming to the door for help, Qiao Mengyuan specially ordered Qinglin's special dishes. Zhang Yang looked at the menu and found that although this place was a vegetarian restaurant, the dishes were not cheap.
Monk Sanbao grinned and said, "Mr. Qiao is so polite!" As soon as this guy left the Qiao family, his secular spirit couldn't help but reveal it again. Qiao Mengyuan smiled and said, "Master, you are polite. In fact, I ordered the dishes I like. Look at the menu and choose the order you like." Sanbao said, "Mencius doesn't care about food. Food is also a temptation for us." Zhang Daguanren said, "You'd better stop eating. I'll give you a dollar. You can go back and eat it yourself."
Monk Sanbao looked at the dishes on the table and said, "Since the Buddha wants to test me with food, I can only accept the test, so how can I retreat!"
Zhang Yang laughed loudly. He brought a bottle of wine to him. Qinglin did not restrict guests from using wine, but monks could not use wine here. Zhang Yang poured a glass of wine for Qiao Mengyuan, and deliberately greeted Sanbao and said, "Do you dare to come some?" Qiao Mengyuan glared at Zhang Yang with a blame, treating his behavior as disrespect for Sanbao, but Sanbao didn't care, so he stretched out three fingers and said, "Only drink three cups!"
Zhang Yang picked up a large glass cup, filled it up in a flash, and placed it in front of Sanbao. This cup was 2 taels.
Sanbao said: "Wine and meat pass through the intestines, and the Buddha keeps it in his heart. I don't eat meat, but I still drink some wine. Director Zhang, thank you for your care. Sanbao is for your respect first!" Sanbao picked up the glass of wine, raised his neck and drank it clean. Not only was Qiao Mengyuan stunned, but even Zhang Daren was shocked by the monk.
