Chapter 141 It’s a nice thought, but things don’t go as planned!
"Okay, got it!" Ma Cheng replied and picked up his chopsticks to eat the noodles. It was too hot, so he put down his chopsticks after only one bite.
Su Jinxia took a bite of the beef and thought it was delicious. She said to the waitress who was about to leave,
"Pack two pounds of beef for me."
"Are you sure?" the waitress asked. At this time, she took a closer look and then she remembered why these two people looked so familiar. They had come to eat last time and ate a lot.
"I'm sorry, I was rash and shouldn't have asked. I'll go see if there are two pounds of beef in the kitchen. If there is, I'll keep it for you."
"Okay." Su Jinxia replied.
The waitress turned around and left with a few other waiters, and the people in the room started eating noodles.
After all, I've been hungry for the whole morning, so I can have a bowl of noodle soup now, but of course I have to fill my stomach first.
Guo Wei ate and drank with a group of people, and before he knew it, he was drunk. He started talking nonsense.
"I'm telling you, as long as I continue to work in this position, you will all benefit. There are some things I don't need to say, because everyone knows what's going on."
There were a few who disagreed, but they didn't dare to say anything. They were just ordinary employees, and if they didn't follow the factory manager for a living, they would have to do the heavy work.
Zhao Yong felt that this was an opportunity, so he stood up and took the initiative to pour a glass of wine for his father-in-law.
"Dad, it's such a waste for me to stay at home. If you can find me a job in the factory, I will do it well and won't embarrass you!"
Guo Wei looked at his son-in-law who suddenly came over and said, "What can you do? You are skinny and can't do physical work. You are not good at studying. If you are allowed to work in a factory, what can you do?"
Zhao Yong dared not speak out his own thoughts and could only go along with the situation.
"There must be something I can do! If I don't work in a factory, I don't know what I'll do! What will Xiaoru's baby eat when it's born?"
"You don't need to worry about what the child eats after it is born. Just take care of yourself first!" Guo Wei said and drank the wine. He was drunk, but he was not stupid.
When I agreed to the son-in-law at this time, the people sitting next to me must have had some thoughts in their minds. As the saying goes, one radish, one pit, and these pits are already filled with radishes.
If he inserts his son-in-law into the company, he will be in trouble! At the critical moment of the factory director election, he will not make such a low-level mistake!
So he gave his son-in-law a look, telling him to go back and sit down and not cause trouble.
How could Zhao Yong see all this? He only knew that those people were laughing again, his father-in-law was looking down on him again, his own wife was eating there, the leftovers on the table were sticking out, and she didn't even ask for a piece of fish or meat for him. His treatment was worse than that of a live-in son-in-law!
"Dad, don't forget that I'm your son-in-law. You'll be relying on me for your old age!"
"When will I rely on you to support me in my old age?" Guo Wei stood up and staggered. "I am still young and can work for another 20 years. Do I need you to support me in my old age? When the time comes, Xiaosheng will support me in my old age, and all of you will get out of my way!"
"Dad!" Zhao Yong shouted.
Guo Wei was so frightened that he pushed the person to the ground with all his strength, and he almost fell down, but was helped by someone nearby.
With a bang.
The noise is really too loud.
Ma Cheng said to Lu Fan, "Go check what's going on next door. Are they drinking and fighting?"
Lu Fan immediately did as he was told, opened the door and went out, then turned a corner and entered the next box.
What I saw inside was a person falling down and groaning in pain on the ground, while the others seemed to be fine.
"What's going on?"
When they saw someone in police uniform coming in, they paid attention and two people rushed over and pulled the person up from the ground.
Guo Wei said, "It's nothing, my son-in-law just fell down."
Lu Fan thought it was no big deal, so he said,
"Be careful when you drink, don't go crazy!"
A few of them nodded to show that they understood.
Lu Fan then left and returned to their own private room, saying to them,
"It was the son-in-law next door who fell to the ground. I saw that he was fine, so I came back."
Ma Cheng stood up and said, "Okay, we've finished our meal, let's go back!"
Su Jinxia, "Then Zhao Yue and I will not go back with you. We will meet up with you tomorrow."
Ma Cheng nodded, "Then I'll go out and settle the bill first."
Su Jinxia winked at Zhao Yue and asked him to go out and settle the bill.
Zhao Yue immediately did as he was told. "Let's settle today's bill. You can treat us to a meal another day."
Ma Cheng waved his hands, "No, we can't break the rules!"
Zhao Yue rushed out of the private room first and then came to the counter.
"Settle us the box."
The little girl took out her notebook and counted the numbers carefully twice with an abacus.
"89 yuan plus 5 jin of grain coupons."
"This is impossible!" said Zhao Yue.
The girl took out the notebook and unfolded it, "Look, this is what you ordered for your private room. It's all the best ingredients in the store. 89 yuan is not expensive!"
"This is not our order." Zhao Yue saw it at a glance. All that was written on it were the names of the dishes.
The little girl looked over there and realized that she had seen it wrong. She quickly apologized and said,
"I'm sorry, I misjudged it. I'll calculate it for you again."
Ma Cheng came over and said, "Xiao Zhao, let's settle this money."
"I won't say anything more. Next time you treat us to a meal, this time we'll pay the bill first." Zhao Yue had already taken out his wallet and threw the money and ticket to the waiter.
The waitress had also done the math by this time. "There's still money for beef in front of you. Give us one pound of grain coupons and two pounds of meat coupons. The money is 28.9 yuan! I'll give you the change now."
When Ma Cheng heard such a large sum of money, he remembered that they had bought beef. Well, he couldn't pretend to be big shot as the money in his pocket did not allow it. He could only smile awkwardly.
"Okay, I'll treat you guys next time."
The waiter handed the change over with both hands, "Here is the remaining money for you."
Zhao Yue put the money away. At this time, he heard a noisy sound and saw Zhao Yong being pushed out of the box and falling against the wall.
"Third brother!" Zhao Lu shouted, then ran over and helped the man up.
"The fighting has started again! I'll go and take a look." Ma Cheng said this and walked over with a cigarette in his mouth.
Guo Wei and a few other people came out and saw a group of police officers coming. They were stunned at first, then they realized that things seemed to have gotten out of hand.
"I'm sorry, police, this is a family matter. My son-in-law got drunk and went crazy with us, and then he got physical with us. It's nothing serious."
Ma Cheng had already arrived in front of them and saw that the beaten man had blood on the corner of his mouth and his eyes looked quite fierce.
Zhao Lu, "What grounds do you have to beat people?"
Zhao Yong looked at his sister whom he hadn't seen for a day. She seemed like a different person. She was no longer wearing tattered clothes, her hair was tied into two big braids, she was wearing a plaid short-sleeved top, tight pants, and leather sandals.
If it weren't for her dark skin, with this outfit, she would look not much different from my wife, just a fashionable city girl.
