Chapter 11 Rules on the wine table

The game continues, shuffles, cuts, deals, and calls the banker.

I don’t know if it was Wu Wangtian who did it on purpose or if it happened, he had never been to the village.

As long as Wang Xi is in the banker, he will basically give up, but the cooperation between him and Wang Xi is absolutely first-class on the day Ang Lee is in the banker.

After fourteen consecutive games, Ang Lee took the banker six times and lost thirteen games. He only won the same time as the banker. Now he has lost 750 yuan.

When facing this kind of scene, if you put it on the head of others, you will lose your eyes. You either loudly scold them for cheating or tactfully withdraw from the game.

But Ang Lee had no dissatisfaction or intention to quit the game.

Continue to play cards calmly, and occasionally make jokes with people around you.

"And Lee is not bad. If it's not that his family is rich, then his psychological quality is very strong."

After playing a few more games, Ang Lee's luck came. He won two consecutive games while playing the banker. At this moment, Wang Xi spoke.

"Secretary Wu, have the meal ready? I'm hungry."

Wu Wangtian immediately understood what Wang Xi meant, looked outside and said, "It must be fine, let's have a meal."

If it is in the eyes of ordinary people, it means that Wang Xi saw that Ang Lee was lucky and decided not to play, which was a bit like a scoundrel who couldn't afford to play.

If it is an ordinary person, he will definitely curse and will never let the game end.

Many people present looked at Ang Lee, what would this young man react like in the face of such a situation?

Is it anger or forbearance, or something else.

Ang Lee was still smiling, and there was no expression of anger or depression at all.

He quickly sorted out the cards on the table and put them in the card box, and then said:

"I'll do it. There are 22 games in total. I've been in ten games, won four games, lost to Wang Suo and Secretary Wu's three hundred."

This is how you play cards here. The money is not cashed in every game, but is settled after the game is over.

At this time, Wang Xi waved his hand and smiled and said, "What's the point of not having money? Just now it was just a reason to play cards. This is how fun it is. I left and had a meal."

Sure enough, everything just now was Wang Xi's test of himself. Anything that was not done well would be underestimated by Wang Xi.

If you guessed correctly, all Wang Xi’s performance just now was a test of Ang Lee’s desire for money. The more important a person’s view of money means how strong the person’s desire is.

Why do countless works from ancient times to the present have more or less written a sentence when describing a hero? This person regards money as dirt.

This is universal values. Although money is very important, people's future will be limited if they value money too much.

Seeing Wang Xi leave the living room first and walk towards the place next door where you can eat specifically, Ang Lee actually felt a little relieved.

He went out today but didn't bring any money. If he really wanted to give money just now, he could only ask the people around him to borrow it, and the scene would be more embarrassing.

This time, the "economic half hour" actually played for more than an hour, and the food had been prepared and placed on the table.

When Ang Lee came over, everyone else had already sat down on the big round table for dinner, only Wang Xi’s right hand was empty.

It is obvious that this position is reserved for me.

According to the traditional rules here, the position where Wang Xi sat is the main position, that is, the most noble position, the position on the left is the main accompanying position, and the position on the right is the second most expensive.

According to the current situation, Ang Lee has temporarily gained recognition from everyone present and has become the second only to Wang Xi and Wu Wangtian.

Ang Lee knew whether he could stabilize his position depends on the next drink.

Although I know my position, I still have to refuse.

"Oh, I think this position is more suitable for Director Wang or Director Liu to sit here. I'll just sit here."

After Ang Lee said that, he had to find a stool to squeeze into the door. The farther away from the door on the wine table, the most expensive, and the door naturally had the worst position.

"Xiao Li, don't refuse, it's here, come and sit down." Wang Xi smiled and pointed to the empty seat.

"That's right, everyone has sat down and stopped moving. Cadre Li should sit down quickly." Wu Wangtian also spoke.

Since that's the case, the etiquette was done well, Ang Lee sat down generously.

The dishes prepared at Wu Wangtian’s home today are very rich. Although there are no expensive ingredients like seafood, they are complete with chicken, duck, fish and meat.

Braised chicken nuggets, stir-fried fat intestines, steamed sea bass, sweet and sour pork ribs, and more than a dozen dishes filled with large round tables. It’s already amazing to be able to cook so many dishes in an hour.

Ang Lee accidentally caught a glimpse of the two boxes of "Luzhou Laojiao" placed by the wall and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyes.

People in Linjiang drink very well, especially in the countryside, which is even more brutal. Ordinary gatherings start with half a pound of white wine per person.

Ang Lee looked at the table and saw about a dozen people sitting there. It was estimated that two boxes were not enough.

Looking at the eager eyes around him looking at him.

Today I was a little too conspicuous.

I will definitely be the focus of everyone's care for later, and my small body is a bit terrible.

"Can you use that move?" Ang Lee thought with some worries.

Wu Wangtian saw everyone arrive, picked up the wine cup and said, "This is the first glass of wine today. I would like to thank the Wang Su for his unremitting efforts to come to our village to know the work and come to do it."

After saying this, Wu Wangtian took the lead in raising his head and drank it, and the others also killed the wine in the glass.

As soon as he picked up the wine cup, a scent of wine came to his face, which was a strong-scented high-alcohol wine. Li An couldn't help but frown and drank it all.

The spicy taste flows from the mouth and into the stomach along the esophagus, making it hot.

How long has it been since I drank? If it was half a year since the last banquet in my previous life.

Since I took the position of secretary of the listing party, there have been fewer occasions when I had to drink by myself.

Every time I attend a banquet, I will stop eating it and no one will force him to drink it. This may be one of the benefits of being in a high position.

He is not a person who likes alcohol, or he hates drinking, and he is a little disgusted with the taste of alcohol. However, it is strange that Ang Lee is born with a good alcohol content, so there is no problem not getting drunk if he drinks a pound.

Some people say that alcohol tolerance is natural, but this is actually scientifically based.

People with good alcohol content actually have more ethanol dehydrogenase and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase in their bodies, which can decompose alcohol faster.

As soon as Ang Lee finished drinking, Wu Wangtian raised his second glass, "This second glass of wine is to cleanse Cadre Li. Cadre Li didn't treat him well yesterday. Today is Cadre Li's welcome wine."

"Thank you Secretary Wu and everyone, I'll do this cup."

Ang Lee quickly stood up and took the initiative to drink. Although he knew it was just a reason for drinking, he must say thank you, which is a kind of social politeness.

“This third cup….”

Wu Wangtian brought in three glasses of wine in a row. This is the rule at the local wine table. After drinking the three glasses, you can order a mat first.

Ang Lee felt a little dizzy after drinking three glasses of wine. This was not a dizzy drink, but a dizzy hunger. He had not had a drip of rice since early morning and had been croaking.

"Xiao Li, eat some food soon. I must be hungry all morning. The local chickens raised by Mr. Wang's home are delicious." Wang Xi picked up a chicken wing and put them in Ang Lee's plate.

"Thank you, I'll do it myself." Ang Lee was polite. But he just took a few bites and didn't eat them all.

This is not because Ang Lee dislikes the chicken that is not delicious, but it is very delicious, but you have to restrain yourself.

That's because the next process is about to arrive - the toast process.

If you want to last longer at the next table, you must eat less or not. If you go to a banquet, you will find that people with high alcohol content basically rarely eat vegetables.

When Ang Lee saw everyone present looking at him without any appearance, his first level was coming.

Sure enough, after everyone had a few bites of the dishes, Wang Xi took the lead in speaking.

"This is the first time Xiao Li has been to the village. You can't let others say that the people in our village don't understand the rules." Wang Xi also winked at Wu Wangtian after saying that.

"Yes, yes, if you want Cadre Li to feel the enthusiasm of our prosperous village, then I will come first."

Secretary Wu said to Wu Sheng, who was holding a pig's hooves, and he was gnawing: "I still eat it, but I don't have any eyesight. Go and get something."

"Oh oh!" Wu Sheng quickly put down his chopsticks, walked quickly to the cabinet beside, took out six wine cups, put them on the plate, and walked in front of Ang Lee.

Wu Wangtian also came over with a bottle of wine and said with a smile: "Cadres Li, there is a rule in our countryside. For guests from afar, we must first toast six glasses of wine. Cadres Li, Lao Wu, I, toast you."
