Zhao Dong took out his cigarette case, took one in his mouth and asked, "Is it worth it? As long as you have a clear conscience."
Xie Jiang still wanted to argue, "But..."
Zhao Dong interrupted, "Jiang'er, it's nothing!"
"I live quite a happy life now. I earn daily necessities and take care of my family. If conditions permit, I will have another child in the future."
"Think about it, being able to escape unscathed, with your wife and children on the hot bed, isn't this our original dream?"
"What else am I not satisfied with?"
"Besides, compared to those brothers who sleep outside the country, we now earn money every day of our lives. It's worth it!"
Xie Jiang was not in a high mood and was unwilling to say more.
Zhao Dong changed the topic, "How are Dahai and Laohu doing?"
Xie Jiang gave Zhao Dongman a glass of wine, "Don't mention the sea to me, I don't have such a brother!"
"If I see him again in the future, I will give this bastard a beating!"
Zhao Dong picked up the wine glass and took a sip, "Jiang'er, I don't blame him for this!"
Xie Jiang sneered, "Why don't you blame him? Everyone was adding insult to injury. Why didn't he stand up and say something for you?"
"That means Lao Hu and I are not here, otherwise this matter would never have been settled like this!"
As he spoke, he kicked over a stool and said, "Fuck you, it makes me unhappy just thinking about it!"
"Ungrateful bastard, where would he be today without you?"
Zhao Dong asked: "What if Dahai stands up for me? It won't change the outcome of this matter."
"In the end, you might get kicked out like me."
"Now that he is here to take care of my brothers, I can feel more at ease."
Xie Jiang spat, "Shit, he just wants to be in position. If you are here, can he sit in that position?"
"Anyway, don't ever mention him to me in the future. I feel sick when you mention him!"
Zhao Dong said no more, "Where is Lao Hu?"
Xie Jiang sighed, "Lao Hu and I didn't know about your withdrawal until we came back."
"The two of us went up there and had a fight."
"You know Lao Hu's temper. He blushed and threw his hat in front of me."
"Now he is in the third company in the north, in charge of logistics, which is similar to distribution."
"I'm better than him. I got a vice president position in Company 5."
"It looks quite beautiful, but after all, I came down by air, and many people below are dissatisfied with me."
"In short, after you retreat, not only Lao Hu and I, but also the other brothers will have a hard time."?
"Forget it, don't talk about these terrible things!"?
While chatting, Xie Jiang turned around and said, "Are you Xiong Chen?"
Xiong Chen clasped his fists and said, "Brother Jiang, I have long admired you!"
Xie Jiang clinked glasses with him, "I have a bad name!"
Xiong Chen sighed: "You, Jianghaihu, are the trump card in Brother Dong's hand. You are known as the Three Gods of War. Who doesn't know about it in the entire company?"
Xie Jiang smiled bitterly, "Bullshit, Brother Dong has retired, and we will never have this title again!"
Xiong Chen knew he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly changed the subject, "Brother Jiang, I came in late and never had the chance to get to know you. I would like to toast you with this glass of wine today!"
Xie Jiang drank a mouthful of wine and said, "You're not a bad guy. I've heard of you."
"By the way, your old man is from the Eighth Company, right?"
Xiong Chen nodded, "That's right."
Xie Jiang narrowed his eyes, "The Tian family seems to be from the Eighth Company too?"
"I don't like the people of the Tian family. I will have as little contact as possible in the future. They are hypocritical..."
Zhao Dong interrupted with a cup, "Jiang'er, you drank too much!"
Xie Jiang came to his senses, patted his forehead and said, "Yes, yes, I drank too much. We brothers are reunited today. Let's not talk about the happy things!"
"Daxiong, although the relationship between the two companies is not good, it will not affect the relationship between our brothers."
"Whenever you come to Tiandu in the future, call me first!"
"Don't imitate Dongzi. If this hadn't happened, I wouldn't have known he was on my land!"
Turning around, Xie Jiang asked again, "Tell me, when will you change your bad habits?"
"What kind of fun is it to play with the dragon all day long without seeing the end of the dragon?"
After finishing a glass of wine, Xie Jiang's face turned red, "Why are you standing there in a daze? If you get into trouble, do you think it's okay if you don't say anything?"
Xie Shan hesitated and hesitated to speak.
Zhao Dong joked, "Okay, if it weren't for Xie Shan, we two brothers wouldn't have met this time!"
Xie Jiang waved his hand, "Come here and pour Brother Dong a glass of wine!"
Xie Shan then stepped forward and said, "Uncle Dong, I couldn't see Mount Tai before!"
Xie Jiang joked, "Why is your mouth so sweet today?"
Xie Shan said seriously: "Uncle Dong has the ability, I am convinced!"
Xie Jiang sighed, "That is, if it were not for your Uncle Dong, my life would be..."
As he said that, he suddenly clapped his hands and said, "That's not right. If you call me uncle, aren't I a generation younger than him?"
Zhao Dong pulled up the stool, "Let's talk about our own business, ignore your brother!"
Xie Shan scratched his head and smiled, "Uncle Dong, have you recognized me a long time ago?"
Zhao Dong nodded, "I think you and Xie Jiang are quite similar, but I didn't dare to confirm because I remembered that Xie Jiang is a younger sister. Are you a boy or a girl?"
Xie Shan was depressed, straightened his chest and asked, "Uncle, are you so inconspicuous?"
Xie Jiang slapped his face in displeasure, "Look at yourself, girls don't look like girls. Who can tell that you are a girl?"
"Also, what are these on your ears?"
"I've been hanging out with a bunch of gangsters all day, what kind of brother is that?"
"Who told you to change your name? How can you still look like a girl?"
Xie Shan retorted, "I don't want to play with those little girls, it's too boring."
"Besides, isn't Xie Shan nice to hear?"
Xie Jiang raised his hand to hit him, "Are you so stubborn again?"
Xie Shan hurriedly hid behind Zhao Dong.
Zhao Dong stopped him and said, "Okay, kids, it's normal to be rebellious in adolescence. You can't tell what you were like when you were a kid!"
"But don't tell me, the little girl is pretty good at it."
Xie Shan made a face, "Did you hear that, your Dong brother also praised me?"
Xie Jiang lost his temper, "Smelly girl, you finally have a backer, right?"
Zhao Dong was curious, "What is your real name?"
Xie Shan said awkwardly, "My name is Xie Mengshan. Isn't it too ladylike and doesn't fit my temperament at all?"
Zhao Dong joked, "It's really too literary, so you might as well call me Xie Shan."
Xie Shan murmured, then nodded, "Okay, I'll change it later."
Xie Jiang was not angry, "Go, go, don't be an eyesore here, ask the boss to bring you the menu, and also ask for a box of beer!"
When they left, he smiled helplessly, "Brother Dong, you are laughing at me. My parents have raised her as a boy since she was a child, and no one at home cares about her. She is used to being wild!"
"But don't tell me yet. This girl has been fearless since she was a child. Sometimes she doesn't even listen to what I say."
"I didn't expect it to be quite obedient in your hands!"
"By the way, how did you come to Tiandu? Why didn't you say hello to me beforehand?"
Zhao Dong explained casually, "Nothing, I came here on a business trip to meet a client."
Xie Jiang asked a few more questions, but seeing that Zhao Dong didn't say anything, he didn't talk any more.
During the remaining time, several people began to reminisce about the past, and when they talked about emotional points, even the sixth child was moved.
The drinking party lasted until past midnight.
Before parting, Xie Jiang reluctantly said: "Brother Dong, when are you leaving? I didn't have a great time drinking today. Let's have another drink tomorrow."
Zhao Dong declined politely, "I will go back after finishing my work tomorrow. If you have a chance to go to Tianzhou in the future, I will invite you!"
Xie Jiang didn't show any pretense, "Then it's settled!"
After separation.
The drunkenness in Xie Jiang's eyes slowly faded, and he suddenly said: "Xie Shan, I have to tell you something!"
