When several people sat together in the evening, Jiang Li looked at the food on the table and smiled.
"Uncle Wang, you're not going to take out all your family assets, are you?"
"If other seniors saw this, they would be furious, right?"
Fatty Wang smiled and said, "Don't worry, no one saw it. Besides, these are my own inventory. I dare not keep public property privately."
"Come on, where's your wine? I can't wait any longer."
Jiang Li laughed, "Yes, are four bottles enough?"
Looking at the white wine that Jiang Li took out of the bag, Fatty Wang hadn't yet reached out his hand, but Zhang Jianbai stretched out his hands first.
"Hey, what kind of wine is this? Why haven't I seen it before?"
"They are all in foreign languages. Didn't you bring them back from Fuso?"
Jiang Li nodded, "I guess so. I drank a few bottles before and they tasted pretty good. Now these are all left. You should taste them slowly. After all, they will be gone once you finish them this time."
"Tsk, then we have to drink slowly."
"Fatty, go get me some more peanuts. How can I drink without peanuts?"
Hearing Zhang Jianbai's words, Fatty Wang rolled his eyes and said, "Do you think I don't want to get some? The key is to have it."
"I haven't bought any peanuts in a long time, and I don't know who bought them."
"If there are peanuts, do you think I won't prepare them?"
"It's good enough to get six dishes together today, why do you need a bicycle?"
Zhang Jianbai curled his lips and said, "If there's no peanuts, then there's no peanuts. I'll talk to the buyer later. I don't believe that there won't be any peanuts in such a big county."
Jiang Li listened to the two people bickering and poured wine for his disciples.
Then he said, "It's great that we have so many dishes today. Let's stop talking and eat."
"It's so cold, the food will get cold soon."
Zhang Jianbai chuckled, "Okay, okay, let's stop talking and eat."
Zhou Zheng and Li Na sat aside without interrupting. When the elders started to pick up their chopsticks, they ate their own food in silence.
Seeing that they were embarrassed, Jiang Li smiled and said, "Don't be so reserved, you two are not strangers, just say whatever you want to say."
"Zhou Zheng, let's drink. Drink as much as you can."
Zhang Jianbai, "Yes, we men drink our own wine. This wine tastes very good. I am lucky to have it today."
"Xiao Jiang, if you have good wine like this in the future, remember to call me again."
"I, your uncle, just like this."
Jiang Li smiled and said, "Okay."
At this time, Lei Dahai, who had finished his work, walked in. Seeing that several people had already started eating, he pulled over an empty chair and sat down.
"You are so unkind, why don't you wait for me for a while."
"Leave some for me, I haven't drunk it yet."
Fatty Wang took the wine glass and said, "Don't shout so loudly. If others hear us, we won't be able to drink."
"There wasn't much wine to begin with."
Lei Dahai rolled his eyes. "At this time, those ancestors are either in the laboratory or sleeping in the dormitory."
"If someone was eating, do you think I would come in?"
"Stop talking nonsense, I want to drink."
Jiang Li found it quite funny to see that they were all funny people.
"Don't worry, everyone has some. I promise you'll have a good drink. But the aftereffect of this wine is a bit strong, so take it easy."
"Don't drink too much, there's no one to make breakfast tomorrow morning."
Lei Dahai waved his hand and said, "It's okay. We have apprentices to make breakfast if we are drunk. It's just breakfast. They can do it by themselves."
"But why did I want to drink today?"
Jiang Li replied: "We are happy today. The experiment is going well, so we want to celebrate in advance."
"Besides, I haven't had any alcohol since I came here, so I'm a little greedy."
Fatty Wang swallowed the wine in his mouth and said with emotion: "It is extremely difficult to get a drink here. The purchasing here is stupid as hell. Every time I ask him to buy something, he always forgets something."
"Lao Zhang, our purchases here are not coming through the back door, right?"
"I've put up with him for two years."
Zhang Jianbai touched his nose awkwardly when he heard this. "I can't do anything about it. They sent me here."
"Even though I am the director, I don't have the final say on everything."
“I am just a tool.”
"You've been here for so long, you know what the situation is like here."
"To be honest, I miss home and I don't know how my children are doing now."
Hearing the director's words, Jiang Li asked curiously, "You haven't contacted your family since you came here, have you?"
Zhang Jianbai nodded, "You guessed right, I am a person who faked my death just like you."
"Because I was arrogant, I offended many people and almost lost my wife and children."
"Finally, the senior leader saw that this was not a solution, so he asked me to fake my death and come here."
"I have been dead for more than ten years. I just hope that I can see my wife and children again in my lifetime. I will be satisfied."
Back then, he thought he had achieved something, so he became very arrogant.
Being young and energetic, he didn't understand the ways of the world and offended many people.
Especially since he was a returnee from overseas.
If the great elder who existed hundreds of years ago had not come to their rescue, the three of them would have long been gone from this world.
It’s a pity that he hasn’t contacted his family for so many years, and I don’t know if his wife hates him.
Whether his son has grown up.
He dedicated his entire life to the country, and only hoped that God would have mercy on him and allow his wife and children to live a better life.
After listening to the director's story, Jiang Li also said with emotion: "You have been here for so many years, I won't be the same as you, right?"
"If I had known, I wouldn't have been so impulsive."
She felt great at the time, but now when she thinks about what she did, she still feels a little impulsive.
I don’t know if those people from Fuso country have caused trouble to her family since she came here.
I just hope that the higher-ups can give a little help, and her boyfriend can give a little help.
She didn't want to hear bad news from home after going out.
"Xiao Jiang, you are different from me. Your enemies are the enemies of the country."
"After the storm over there passes, you can leave."
"As for me..."
“ε=(′ο｀*)))Alas, no matter how much I say, it’s all my own fault.”
Jiang Li swallowed the wine in his mouth and comforted him, "Uncle Zhang, I think after so many years, you should be able to retire and go back."
"Most of the people back then may have died now."
"You must be aware of the situation outside. Where do you think those people are now?"
Zhang Jianbai paused holding the wine glass, "You mean..."
"It's just as you think. Maybe there aren't many people left from that time."
"So, since you miss home, apply for retirement from your superiors."
"After all, life is only a few decades long, so don't leave yourself with any regrets."
