The second glass of wine was poured, and the beer drinker poured it himself. The third brother Teng Shuai couldn't help but sigh: "The fourth and sixth brothers didn't come, otherwise today would have been even more perfect."

"No, if any of you have the phone numbers of the fourth and sixth brothers, give them a call and tell them that we brothers are getting together and we are so greedy for them." The boss, Cao Jingchun, said.

Xia Zekai's previous mobile phone fell into the lake, and all the numbers he had saved were gone.

Liu Yang pulled his cell phone and found the number of the fourth child, but after dialing it, he heard a message in his hand saying, "The number you dialed is not available. Please check and dial again."

After hearing this voice, the originally cheerful atmosphere dropped a bit.

"I still have a phone number here, let me try." Zhang Jichang, the fifth child, said.

He was dialing out with confidence, and then he received another message, 'The number you dialed is unavailable, please check before dialing again'.

"I wonder, what did the fourth child do? Why do he change his number so frequently?" Geng Hua muttered.

The third brother Teng Shuai shook his head and sighed: "Forget it, I won't beat the fourth brother. Let's contact the sixth brother."

The sixth child, Zhang Shoubao, was a very lively person when he was in school and could chat with anyone.

Several people have his number in their cell phones.

However, what everyone didn't expect was that the dialed number also heard from the mobile phone, 'The number you dialed is unavailable, please check and dial again.'

"The number is empty. What's going on with these two accounts? Are they all so poor that they can't even pay their phone bills?" Cao Jingchun, the boss, complained irritably.

"Forget it for now, let's drink. It's a good thing that we can get together today. Don't think about those unhappy things." Xia Zekai advised.

When he said this, several people temporarily suppressed their "unhappiness" and took care of the emotions of the people in front of them.

After they were done drinking, the guys started to play freely.

Before they could go out, Liu Yanyi, who was sitting at another table, came over with an empty wine glass and a bottle of Green Lansa beer.

"Hey, you guys are pretty good, and we even gathered a table together!" Liu Yanyi moved a chair and sat between Geng Hua and Teng Shuai.

He said: "I haven't gotten together together in all these years, so I'm taking this opportunity to have a drink with you today."

"Old Liu, how do you want to do this? Do you want to play in a circle or one against six?" Xia Zekai asked him with a mean smile on his face.

Liu Yanyi said with a sullen face: "What the hell does that make? Let's do this. I'll have a drink with you brothers first, and then we can express our feelings alone. I think that's interesting."

"It has to be interesting, that's it." Teng Shuai said.

Liu Yanyi looked around and said, "You guys are all right. I found that the people who came today are the best in your dormitory."

"It's all there. I didn't see that there are still two people missing. I called just now, and the fourth child couldn't be contacted, and the sixth child couldn't be contacted either. They were both empty numbers. I'm so angry." The boss, Cao Jingchun, was obviously still a little helpless.

Relieve.

Hearing what he said, Liu Yanyi's expression changed. He bit his lip, poured himself a full glass of beer, and said, "I'll have a drink with you first, and then I'll tell you something."

"What happened is so mysterious? You can't talk about it first and then drink." Geng Hua said.

But Liu Yanyi disagreed, and the seven of them drank one together.

Liu Yanyi then said: "I don't know what the fourth child in your dormitory has done, but I know the sixth child, Zhang Shoubao..."

"Then why don't you talk nonsense, Lao Liu, you have his phone number, give me his number, I will give him a call, I just know how to make money day by day, I have no idea, brothers can get together

Is it easy?"

But Xia Zekai instinctively felt something was wrong.

Before he could figure out what was wrong, he heard Liu Yanyi say: "Boss Cao, you may have misunderstood. It's not that Zhang Shoubao doesn't want to come, he can't come."

"Why, you're such a bad guy, you can't even pay for your travel expenses? Can't I pay for him? Just give me the phone and I'll tell him that we can get together in the evening." Cao Jingchun might have been drunk.

, I feel a little excited and my thoughts are not very clear.

When Liu Yanyi heard what he said, he was not angry. He picked up the wine glass and poured himself a glass. He raised his head and drank it all. He said: "I thought you knew, and you don't know about feelings. He really can't come."

No more people!"

"..." Suddenly hearing the news, the people at the table immediately became quiet, including Yatou, Tongtong and Lao Wu's son Zhang Cheng.

"What...what's going on, Lao Liu, you've drunk too much, right? You're talking nonsense." Teng Shuai's voice trembled a little.

Xia Zekai's hand holding the wine glass also shook, and the liquid in the wine glass spilled out.

Although we usually don’t contact each other because we are busy with our own affairs, the pure feelings from back then are still there.

When he suddenly heard the news, he couldn't accept it. He still expected Liu Yanyi to be joking. He was also thinking about beating him up later. It was not good to make a joke and he had to say this.

He thought well in his heart, but the unacceptable reality was too cruel. Liu Yanyi wiped his face, and he didn’t know whether it was because of drinking that his face was red or because his eyes were red. He said: "Why did I lie to you? He and I

They are all from Richeng. In the first few years, didn't he drive to deliver alcohol to others? In early 2008, he was hit by a truck coming from the opposite direction on the way to deliver the goods to others. He was sent to the hospital but could not be saved... What the hell am I lying?

What are you doing? I just want to lie to you, you idiot!"

After saying that, Liu Yanyi directly picked up the remaining half of the bottle of Green Lansha, put it in his mouth and drank it in one breath.

By this time, the brothers seemed to have lost all energy.

No wonder the number I called him just now was said to be empty. If it had been more than three years since 2008...

If you are in arrears for three months, the mobile company will cancel your account.

After Liu Yanyi finished blowing the bottle of wine, he didn't play another circle and walked away with the empty glass. He wanted to be quiet.

Xia Zekai and his brothers were left at the table, and the atmosphere was a little depressed. At this time, they suddenly regretted hearing the news.

It’s better not to know!

Xia Zekai was also very depressed. He had never heard this news in his previous life.

Having said that, he had only worked hard to provide three meals a day for his family all day long, and he didn't even remember this 'class reunion'.

"Zekai, don't just drink, you should also eat something. There is so much left on the table."

Zhang Jichang and his wife Xu Qina also said: "That's right, no matter what happens, you can't drink on an empty stomach like this."

…

the other side!

Today is the weekend, and Sun Yuping doesn't go to work today. After she woke up in the morning, one thought kept running in her head: "Should we go or not?"

Thinking about her chat with Luo Xiyun on Thursday, she urgently wanted to follow the address Luo Xiyun left for her to see if it was true or false.

The salary is 2,000 yuan, and there may be a salary increase after becoming a full-time employee, and in addition, five insurances will be purchased.

These conditions came out from time to time to tempt Sun Yuping.

Her hometown itself is not a wealthy family, otherwise she would not have come to Qicheng to work, and she would not still be using an old Nokia mobile phone.

With the promotion of 3G networks, 3G mobile phones are now commonly used on the streets. This is an era that is gradually embracing the future and civilization, but she is still using an outdated feature phone due to reality.

I suppressed all the beating thoughts in my heart, got dressed and got out of bed.

After washing, she took out a pack of instant noodles from the box of instant noodles on top of the bedside cabinet and soaked them in boiling water.

She told Luo Xiyun that day that she made instant noodles and ate them. It was absolutely true. She had this for two meals a day. Occasionally, when she was extravagant, she would add two pieces of ham to it.

Working as a temporary worker at the Qicheng Human Resources and Social Security Office, she earned an average of 1,500 yuan a month, but 1,000 yuan of it was sent home.

The remaining 500 yuan still has to pay for the 130 yuan monthly rent in the shared house. She has already saved a lot, but she doesn't dare to buy other food.

Luo Xiyun invited her to dinner that day. To be honest, it was the best meal she had had in a long time.

Life is inherently unequal, and there are different kinds of ups and downs every day, and this is just a part of it.

After eating instant noodles, I drank all the soup and went out feeling warm all over.

She had already studied the route. She could just take bus No. 7 to Xiqi Road and then walk a little further. This way she could save two yuan by going back and forth twice.

When your pocket is not rich, you have to be more careful with your budget.

It took her a full hour and a half from leaving the house to finding the address Luo Xiyun left for her. This was the price of walking, time was exchanged for space.

Seeing the house along the street that was being renovated, Sun Yuping once suspected that she had found the wrong place. She hesitated and didn't dare to ask, for fear that she would feel cheated and she couldn't accept it.

Finally, he suppressed the messy thoughts in his heart, walked over and asked: "Hello, brother, is this Kaiyun Investment Company?"

By coincidence, the person she asked was none other than Zhang Guolong. Today was the first day of renovation and he came over to supervise the work.

He didn't dare to be careless in the proprietress's shop.

He feels that he would rather offend his boss than his wife. This is the iron rule of being in the workplace!

Hearing Sun Yuping's inquiry, Zhang Guolong nodded subconsciously: "Yes, this is the office of Kaiyun Investment. It is being renovated. Little sister, who are you looking for?"
