At that time, the village chief had a good relationship with Wang Xiaoming and his father Wang Lisheng, after Wang Li's death, there was still 20,000 yuan in arrears from the village chief in the bill, and Wang Xiaoming's mother married again, leaving only three Wang Xiaoming brothers, as a village cadre, he naturally had to take care of the orphans in the village, and Wang Lisheng owed him the debt that he had never been in a hurry to let Wang Xiaoming pay back, and there was no reason to urge, but also because it was a gambling debt.
Gambling debts are not serious debts in themselves, and they will be written off when they die, but the IOU left by Wang Lisheng at that time did not explain which ones were gambling debts, and the kind people told Wang Xiaoming that they didn't need to pay it back, and the unkind people kept silent, fantasizing that Wang Xiaoming would be able to repay it one day, even if it was a windfall, of course, there were still few honest people, after all, there were few good gamblers.
The village chief didn't expect Wang Xiaoming to be able to repay him so quickly, which was equivalent to making a windfall, and he was happy: "Okay, I'll do this for you as soon as possible." ” Wang Xiaoming said: "Uncle, I'll let Ergou come to you in the future, my store is very busy, and there are not enough people in the kitchen, so I can't leave." ” "Yes, you can just let Ergou come."
For reasons that Wang Xiaoming didn't know, Yang Ming's settlement went smoothly.
After coming out of the village chief's house, Wang Xiaoming and Wang Ergou went home and wanted to bring some things from home.
Wang Ergou asked: "Brother, let's go back to the island for the New Year this year, or celebrate the New Year in a rented house."
Wang Xiaoming said: "I can't come back on the day of the New Year, and many people have ordered a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
Come back on the first day of the new year. ” The brothers passed by Luo's house, and Wang Xiaoming greeted Luo Maogang and his wife who were basking in the sun at the door, and Luo Maogang and his wife pretended not to hear and turned their heads.
Wang Ergou pulled Wang Xiaoming's arm: "Big brother, why are you talking to them, and you still show us that face, as if we are sorry for them." ” "Hehe, it's okay, don't worry."
Wang Xiaoming knew that Luo Maogang and his family were unhappy because they paid a lot of tuition fees to Yang Ming, and it is estimated that the tuition fees have not been earned back so far.
Before lunch, they returned to the restaurant, and Wang Xiaoming's classmates had already arrived.
Wang Xiaoming went up to greet everyone, I haven't seen you for many years, everyone's appearance has changed a lot, many people Wang Xiaoming can't call their names, when they talk about their names, it is difficult to match the teenager in memory with the classmates in front of them.
He actually found Luo Yufen in the crowd, Luo Yufen is not his classmate, it is said that it was the third class of high school that arrived in the second class where he was originally located, so not all the people who came to the party this time were his classmates.
All the guests came, Wang Xiaoming smiled politely: "Have you ordered food?"
"Ordered, I heard that your Buddha jumping over the wall is very famous, but unfortunately the waiter just said that there is no today, and I want to come to eat a Buddha jumping over the wall."
A male classmate said.
Wang Xiaoming said with a smile: "If you want to eat Buddha jumping over the wall, you have to make a reservation two days in advance, because it is more time-consuming, and you can't get out for a while."
The other dishes in our store are also very good, and each one is a classic. ” Wang Jieling said: "The dishes have already been ordered, don't pay attention to Ah Rong." ” "Then you sit down first, I'll go down and get busy."
Wang Xiaoming said that he was going out. was pulled by a male classmate: "Wang Xiaoming, it's hard to have a class reunion, don't go, chat with us, don't you have a chef when you open a restaurant, and you have to be the boss to do it yourself" Wang Xiaoming said: "It's really not a coincidence, I'm also a chef myself, if I don't help, this lunch will not be eaten until the evening, you talk about yours, I'll go to work first, and I'll come to chat with you when I'm free." ” Luo Yufen has been sitting in the corner, looking at Wang Xiaoming silently, silently, there are actually few classmates she is familiar with here, and the person who organized the class reunion said that this party was in Haibawang, and Luo Yufen came here.
Most people are not very familiar with her, they all talk to their acquaintances, and she just sits alone and listens to others' chats.
Wang Jieling sat next to her and chatted with the other two girls: "Do you think Wang Xiaoming is married now, there is a child in his store, will it be his son?"
A girl with curly hair said, "I don't know, do you want to ask him" Another straight-haired girl said: "It shouldn't be, I heard that Wang Xiaoming's family is in a difficult situation, and it is estimated that he has been busy paying off his debts all these years, and he has no money to get married."
She didn't say it directly, in this case, no woman wants to marry him.
"Isn't that before, now that he's in a restaurant, it shouldn't be so difficult."
Wang Jieling said without giving up.
The curly-haired girl said: "Are you interesting to him, my boyfriend has changed a few, but I haven't decided on it, or I'll match it for you."
Wang Jieling waved her hand: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm just curious."
Wang Jieling covets Wang Xiaoming's appearance a little, but she dislikes his poverty and sourness, but Wang Xiaoming is also a small hotel owner now, maybe it is also a potential stock, she still has to observe for a period of time, and she wants to chase people, and use others to help match.
Luo Yufen listened to these people, lowered her head and bit her lip to play with her mobile phone, in order to hide her emotions.
Wang Jieling turned her head to look at the apple 6s in her hand, and took the initiative to talk to her: "You only went to the second class in the third year of high school" Wang Jieling studied liberal arts in the third year of high school, not in the second class, and did not know Luo Yufen.
Luo Yufen didn't look up, just hummed.
"Ah Fen, how old is your child?"
said the curly-haired girl just now.
Luo Yufen raised her head and showed an unnatural smile: "The eldest one is three years old, and the younger one has just been weaned." ” The curly-haired woman took Luo Yufen's hand: "It's better to be Ah Fen, the family conditions are good, as long as you concentrate on your husband and children."
My biggest wish is to be a stay-at-home wife like her, and I don't have to worry about anything. ” When Luo Yufen heard this, she almost cried: "No, no, I think it's good to go to work."
I'm going to find something to do after the New Year. ” The curly-haired woman smiled and said, "What are you looking for to do, I'm tired of doing things."
If you really feel idle, tell your husband and let him open a store for you, and you just need to be the proprietress and collect money. ” Luo Yufen smiled bitterly.
Wang Jieling asked: "What does your husband do?"
The curly-haired woman said proudly: "His husband is one of the richest people in our place, do you know Yinhai Street, half of the street is his family's." ” Wang Jieling's eyes lit up, and she looked at Luo Yufen enviously, she looked okay, but because she had just given birth to a child, her figure was still a little bloated, her clothes style was ordinary, and her hairstyle had never been done.
