Chapter 38: The Truth Refuses to Accept Favors
After Lu Liang and Han Licheng came out of the Canghe Hotel, they walked forward about three or five hundred meters, walked into a newly opened restaurant, and asked for a small private room to push the cup and change it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Han Licheng raised his wine glass and said to Lu Liang: "Director Lu, thank you for today's incident, I will do it first as a respect!" ”
When he first met Chen Zhi in Canghe Hotel, Han Licheng's tone was very bad, and it was clear that he wanted to fix him, in this case, Lu Liang stood in the same trench with him without hesitation. Now that there are only two people present, Han Licheng should express his gratitude to them.
Lu Liang picked up the wine glass and touched Han Licheng lightly, and said with a smile: "Township Chief Han, if you say that, you will be out of sight, it's just a gesture, not to mention that the surname Chen's approach is indeed too much, if the county magistrate knows about it, he will be designated to peel his skin." ”
Lu Liang's words sounded indignant at first glance, but in fact, he handed words into Han Licheng's mouth to see if he meant to move Chen Zhi.
Don't look at the deputy director of education, he is a great official in the eyes of Shengdou Xiaomin, but in the eyes of a certain level of bigwigs, it is just a matter of Nunu's mouth to move him. Although Lu Liang himself does not have so much energy, but with the support of the county magistrate Meng Chuanxiang, he is still very confident when he says this.
Han Licheng saw Lu Liang's intentions at a glance, and said in a deep voice: "Director Lu, I can't hide it, the deputy director Shen in the previous Education Bureau office was my brother's wife, and she came from Anhu with me. ”
Before saying this, Han Licheng deliberately thought about it in his mind, and finally decided to say it. It couldn't be easier for Lu Liang to inquire about the relationship between him and Shen Yanmei, not to mention it, but to make the other party misunderstand.
Before this, Lu Liang's attention was completely on Han Licheng and Chen Zhi, and he didn't pay attention to Shen Yanmei, if you talk about impressions, she was just a beautiful woman at most. Unexpectedly, she and Han Licheng had such a relationship, no wonder the latter wanted to slap Chen Zhi in the face on the spot.
"Township Chief Han, why didn't you say it earlier, okay, I'll help you with this." Lu Liang said indignantly, "I have long heard that the surname Chen behaved inappropriately, and the reason why I agreed to his appointment was that I wanted to test it myself, and I didn't think it would be worse than the rumors." ”
After hearing Lu Liang's words, Han Licheng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Director Lu, you misunderstood what I meant. What the surname Chen has done has nothing to do with me, I just don't want to see him disturb Shen Yanmei's life again. ”
Han Licheng knew very well in his heart that if he didn't say this, Lu Liang would definitely get rid of Chen Zhi through Meng Chuanxiang, which was actually the result he wanted to see, but in that case, he would owe County Magistrate Meng a favor.
The most difficult thing to repay in officialdom is the debt of favors, sometimes, he may not be able to pay it off in his lifetime, and Han Licheng is unwilling to owe this debt until he has to do so.
In addition, Han Licheng also saw that the reason why Lu Liang was full of confidence was eight times out of ten. Nine is to get Meng Chuanxiang's signal. He is just a small deputy township head, but County Magistrate Meng asked the secretary to befriend him, and he took a fancy to the special relationship between him and Ye Mengyao.
So far, Han Licheng has not figured out the details of Ye Mengyao, and the two can only be said to have a good impression of each other, and they are still 108,000 miles away from their boyfriend and girlfriend!
Under such circumstances, Han Licheng categorically would not and did not dare to accept this great gift from Meng Chuanxiang.
After Lu Liang heard Han Licheng's words, his face was slightly disappointed, but he still patted his chest and said, "Okay, I understand what you mean, don't worry, wrap it up on me!" ”
Seeing this, Han Licheng nodded at Lu Liang and raised his glass again.
The two drank and chatted, and a bottle of wine quickly bottomed out.
Lu Liang just wanted the waiter to take the second bottle, but Han Licheng stretched out his hand to stop him: "Director Lu, forget it today, I still have to drive to Sangou Township, and when you have time to go to Sangou one day, we will have a drunken rest." ”
Lu Liang persuaded two more words, and seeing Han Licheng's resolute attitude, he had no choice but to give up.
After Lu Liang finished paying the bill, the two left the restaurant.
In the process of walking back to the Canghe Hotel, Lu Liang said to Han Licheng: "Township Chief Han, you and I hit it off at first sight, the township chief and the director's shouting seems too raw, so let's do it, I'm a few years older than you, call you Brother Han, you have no opinion?" ”
Lu Liang carefully studied Han Licheng's file and knew that he was just twenty-five years old this year, two years younger than himself.
After Han Licheng heard Lu Liang's words, he said with a smile: "Brother Lu, before this, I had this idea, but I was afraid of climbing, so I didn't say it, hehe!" ”
After hearing this, Lu Liang stretched out his right index finger and tapped Han Licheng twice, and said, "Brother, don't take such a burying person!" ”
"Haha!"
"Haha!"
The hearty laughter of the two came far away in the quiet night, attracting the sideways of the passers-by.
Lu Liang sent Han Licheng into the car, watched him get out of the door of the Canghe Hotel, and then got into the car leisurely.
After driving forward for a while, Han Licheng parked the car on the side of the road and dialed Shen Yanmei's mobile phone.
Han Licheng learned that Shen Yanmei had returned to the dormitory, and as soon as he hit the steering wheel, he drove towards the Hongyun community where she lived.
After Shen Yanmei saw Han Licheng again, she asked Lu Liang's identity with concern and why he suddenly appeared in Canghe Hotel. Although she had already guessed everything, she could only completely put her mind at ease only after getting Han Licheng's confirmation. When she learned that Lu Liang was the secretary of the county magistrate, Shen Yanmei's hanging heart completely relaxed.
After chatting about business, Han Licheng asked Shen Yanmei if she had eaten, and when he learned that she hadn't eaten at this time, he pulled her out with him.
Han Licheng drove out of the community, and after driving forward for a while, he saw a barbecue restaurant called Qin Du, so he stopped the car.
Han Licheng couldn't imagine that the Qindu barbecue restaurant was a bit of the prototype of a barbecue restaurant in later generations, with special paper on the barbecue grill and a small range hood on each table, not like the barbecue stalls that can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys, smoky and burning everywhere.
After ordering, Han Licheng went to the bathroom, and when he walked back to the private room, Shen Yanmei was seriously roasting chicken wings, but judging from her movements, it should be the first time that the eldest girl got on the sedan chair.
Seeing this, Han Licheng stretched out his hand to Shen Yanmei and said, "I'll bake it!" ”
Shen Yanmei glanced at Han Licheng and asked, "Do you know how to bake it, don't look at people who don't have a hard time, it's baked, you can eat it yourself!" ”
Han Licheng saw Shen Yanmei's coquettish expression in his heart, and couldn't help but feel a burst of heartbeat.
Han Licheng saw that Shen Yanmei was unwilling to give him the roasted wings in his hand, and while picking up the other one, he said, "Beauty, let's do it, you bake yours, and I bake mine, but make it clear in advance that you are not allowed to snatch my food for a while." ”
After Shen Yanmei listened to Han Licheng's words, a trace of disdain immediately appeared on her face, and then she became more and more serious about rummaging the chicken wings in her hand.
The products provided to customers by Qindu barbecue restaurant are semi-finished products, and they can be eaten as long as they are slightly reprocessed. In this way, customers can enjoy delicious food and feel the joy of grilling with their own hands, which has to be said to be a very creative idea.
Han Licheng skillfully flipped the chicken wings over the fire while roasting, and brushed the grease on them from time to time, and after a while, the rich fragrance spread.
In his previous life, Qi Dashao was not generally proficient in eating, drinking and having fun in addition to not doing his job, and this kind of barbecue was really pediatric for him.
Shen Yanmei watched Han Licheng's skillful movements, coupled with the smell of incense coming to her nose, she finally realized how wrong her previous decision was.
"What's that, stand ...... Licheng, let's exchange it, let me see how you roast? Shen Yanmei said a little embarrassed.
Han Licheng deliberately pretended not to hear, and still roasted the chicken wings seriously. Seeing this, Shen Yanmei deliberately raised her voice and said what she just said again. Han Licheng still ignored it, roasting his chicken wings without distraction.
Shen Yanmei couldn't help it, and said loudly: "Han Licheng, give me your chicken wings!" ”
Han Licheng shook his head, and then snorted at the chicken wings in Shen Yanmei's hand. Seeing this, Shen Yanmei hurriedly looked down and saw that his chicken wings had become a black ball. Shen Yanmei simply threw the chicken wings in her hand down and directly snatched the chicken wings in Han Licheng's hand.
Seeing this, Han Licheng hurriedly said, "Don't move, it's baked, I'll give it to you when it's ready." ”
"Really?" Shen Yanmei stopped what she was doing and asked suspiciously.
"It's more true than pearls, don't move around, it'll be fine for a while, or you'll be baked again." While Han Licheng spoke, the movements of his hands did not stop.
After Shen Yanmei heard this, she quieted down, and looking at Han Licheng's skillful movements, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a hint of a smile.
While Han Licheng was roasting chicken wings, he looked at Shen Yanmei with the rest of his eyes. She was obviously well-dressed tonight, with long hair and a shawl, a pretty face like a flower, her eyebrows were affectionate, and her pale yellow dress set off her good figure to the fullest
Just when Han Licheng was thinking about whether to stand up and take a look at the beautiful scenery, a coquettish voice suddenly sounded in his ears, what do you see, the chicken wings are going to be mushy, do you want to eat them for me?
After Han Licheng heard this, he hurriedly focused his attention on the chicken wings, and saw that it was really as Shen Yanmei said, if it was roasted again, it would really be mushy. Han Licheng hurriedly handed over the chicken wings and opened his mouth to cover up: "These chicken wings have been roasted before, they look old, but they are actually arriving at the door." ”
If Han Licheng had said this before, Shen Yanmei would not have believed it, but after seeing his wing-roasting skills just now, Miss Cheng nodded convincingly after hearing it.
"Is it delicious?" Han Licheng saw Shen Yanmei take a bite, and hurriedly asked, he was really a little worried, due to the negligence just now, his previous efforts were wasted.
"It's delicious, Han Licheng, I can't see it, your barbecue level is really good, I'll have a good taste in the future!" Shen Yanmei said happily while eating.
After Han Licheng heard this, he put his mind at ease, as long as he didn't bake paste, as for the second half of Shen Yanmei's sentence, he didn't pay attention to it at all.
The two of them had eaten this meal for nearly an hour and a half, and at first Shen Yanmei wanted to bake one or two decent things under Han Licheng's guidance, but after some tossing, the things she baked were either burnt or half-cooked, so she lost her patience and concentrated on eating.
This made Han Licheng miserable, and when Shen Yanmei had eaten about the same, he could take care of himself, but fortunately, he had eaten a lot with Lu Liang before, so he would not be hungry.
