Chapter 228: A Face-Saving



Wan Feng refused Shen Hongjun and his wife's request to have lunch here, and rode his bicycle home at around nine o'clock.

This area of ​​the island has the most mountains in Black Reef Commune. Perhaps all the mountains in the rest of the Black Reef Commune combined would not be as numerous as those in this generation.

Except for one side facing the sea, the other three sides of Xia Sunjia are surrounded by mountains.

The road leading outside also has a very steep slope.

After leaving Xia Sunjia, there is a big uphill slope, which is more than two miles away. After going up this slope, there is a big downhill slope. If you ride a bicycle without braking and let the bike go downhill, you will probably reach Shenjia Brigade by the time the bike stops.

Wan Feng pushed his bicycle to the top of the hill. Just as he was about to ride downhill and head straight to Shen's house, he saw several people on the top of the hill.

Wan Feng took a deep breath, got off the bicycle and slowly pushed it forward. When he was twenty meters away from the other party, he parked the bicycle on the side of the road but did not get off the bicycle.

Luan Feng has been acting a little abnormal recently. How come she always gets everything right with her careless personality?

She stubbornly made the Fengfeng brand the most recognized brand among the girls in the city. This morning when he went out, she tied a knife more than a foot long to his shelf.

Now the knife wrapped in rags and tied with two cloth bags is in Wan Feng's hand.

Originally, Wan Feng didn't take him seriously because he always carried a knife with him whenever he went out, the kind that was very easy to carry and inconspicuous.

So, when Luan Feng asked him to carry a knife this morning, he wanted to cry, but he didn't expect that it would be useful now.

If this knife is pulled out and not used for chopping, it can scare away a whole class of people.

Luck is a really strange thing. It is not based on academic qualifications or background. It will be nice to whoever it wants. If it doesn't like you, it won't care whether you are the king of a country or a billionaire.

It was obvious that Luan Feng had a natural aura about her, especially after she met Wan Feng, otherwise why would her random thoughts always be correct?

Just like the clothes she made for her sister today, she made the waist so thin because she knew it would highlight her breasts. Luan Ying's breasts are quite proud, and they are about to burst out when she wears this dress.

This might be a prank played by Luan Feng. She meant to make her sister only able to look at it but not dare to wear it, and even if she wore it, she could only stay at home uncomfortably. In fact, she was just playing a prank on her sister.

But unexpectedly, the result of the prank was to bring back business of two wedding dresses worth thirty yuan. The sales of these two wedding dresses were equivalent to the sales of fifteen pairs of pants, but the profit was incomparable to that of fifteen pairs of pants. This was all due to luck.

Wan Feng touched the knife handle and said calmly, "Yu Qingtao, you're not here to block my way, are you?"

The other party was Yu Qingtao and his cronies. Wan Feng knew all of them except the one with the braid, and he had even fought with two of them.

The ones who had fought each other were naturally Er Laizi and You San, and the two people who had not fought each other had also seen each other.

"I'm indeed waiting for you here." Yu Qingtao's tone was also very calm, which made Wan Feng a little strange. Shouldn't he be furious?

"Are you planning to fight me one-on-one or gang up on me?"

"I want to talk to you, just as ordinary friends for now. I want to buy you a drink."

Drinking? What's going on?

Northerners do have a thing called "no friendship without fighting" that Southerners cannot understand. Two people can be fighting with bloody heads one moment and then be drinking and talking like brothers the next.

But Wan Feng didn't think there was such a possibility for him and Yu Qingtao.

Wan Feng sneered, "You bring four or five people to treat me to a drink? Do you think I'll believe you? Wait until we're halfway through and you throw the cup as a signal, and then your brothers beat me up black and blue. I won't fall for that."

Yu Qingtao turned around and said to Er Laizi and the others, "I told you not to follow me, but you insisted on following me. Go away, go home!"

Erlaizi and the others hesitated for a moment, then got on their bikes and rode away.

"Now that it's just the two of us, you can relax, right? How about your choice of place?"

In 1980, the only place you could go to drink alcohol, apart from at home, was the supply and marketing cooperative. You could buy some snacks and drink some alcohol, and then you could only go to the commune.

"You really want to drink with me?"

"I'm very sincere."

"In that case, how about going to the other side of the sand?"

"good!"

"Do you have money?" Don't ask me to pay for the wine after you finish drinking it. The relationship between us is not that close.

Yu Qingtao patted his pocket and asked, "Is ten yuan enough?"

That’s enough. Ten dollars is not enough to drink yourself to death.

The two of them rode their bicycles downhill for more than ten minutes and arrived at Shen's house. Shen's house was only three or four miles away from the other side of the sand, so after another ten minutes, they arrived at the Heijiao Commune Supply and Marketing Cooperative Restaurant.

It was just past ten o'clock and there were very few people in the restaurant. There were only two guys who looked like cattle dealers drinking by the window.

Wan Feng parked his bicycle outside a window of the hotel and chose to sit by the window after entering the hotel.

"What are you eating?"

"Anything is fine. As long as we can eat well, it's fine. It would be a waste if we make too much."

Since Yu Qingtao wanted to treat him to a drink, he certainly didn't need to worry about anything.

Yu Qingtao ordered four dishes: stir-fried pupa, steamed crab, boiled shrimp, and stir-fried meat with tofu skin.

Wan Feng was not interested in seafood, but fortunately he still had a pupa and tofu skin.

"What are you drinking?"

“Do you have draft beer?”

Yu Qingtao shook his head.

"Then give me a bottle of beer. I don't drink liquor."

The bottle of beer was Bohai Beer produced by Bohai Brewery. In Wan Feng's memory, this beer was very ordinary, with a bit of a "spicy" taste, but the alcohol content was not less than 12.5 degrees.

Yu Qingtao drank baijiu, a bottle of Yunshan baijiu which cost 60 cents.

They each poured a glass, and Yu Qingtao raised his glass: "What's this for? Let's drink to our acquaintance."

He drank white wine and Wan Feng drank beer, so they both drank it in one gulp.

"Eat your food, eat your food. You're obviously not as old as me. Can I call you brother?"

"It's not easy for me to call you brother." If Yu Qingtao calls him brother, he has to call him brother. Before the enemy and us are clearly identified, this is not just a casual call. This is different from calling strangers brother or uncle when he meets them.

"I call you brother, you call me Qingtao."

"Brother Wan, we've been friends for a while now. I apologize for hitting your brother-in-law. This cup is my apology."

Yu Qingtao picked up the cup and drank it himself.

No, this guy's polite words are really good. It seems he has really seen some situations.

"I'm thinking of going to your brother-in-law's house in the next two days to formally apologize. What do you think, brother?"

Don't hit a smiling person when you speak. No matter what the other person thinks, Wan Feng feels that he has to give it to him.

At least it looks acceptable.
