If everyone hadn't made a fuss, Cheng Jianjun would have just drank it, but now that everyone was so angry with him, he just felt his face burning with shame and anger.
Just as he was about to leave angrily, he suddenly thought that Su Meng was still here. If he ran away, wouldn't he be looked down upon by her?
"Drink! I drink!"
Cheng Jianjun sighed, picked up the liquor on the table and poured himself a full glass.
"Cough! Cough!"
After drinking a glass of wine, Cheng Jianjun coughed violently, with a painful expression on his face. His alcohol capacity was already small, but this time he drank more than three ounces of high-strength liquor in one go. He felt as if his throat and esophagus had been cut with a knife.
Everything was so hot that I choked to tears.
Seeing Cheng Jianjun downing more than three ounces of liquor in one gulp, the educated youth present clapped their hands and praised him.
"good!"
“Good drinker!”
"He's a man!"
However, these words that were originally compliments seemed particularly harsh in Cheng Jianjun's ears, like a handful of salt sprinkled on his wounds.
Cheng Jianjun had a low alcohol capacity and was not good at drinking fast drinks. Coupled with the violent mood swings, he suffered from bouts of nausea.
'No, I can't vomit here!'
'I have to go to the toilet!'
But this feeling was so strong that he couldn't bear it anymore. Just as he stood up, he vomited it out with a 'vomit' sound.
"Ugh... ugh..."
As soon as he vomited, the scene suddenly became chaotic.
"oops!"
"Cheng Jianjun!"
"you……"
…………
Fortunately, Cheng Jianjun still had some sense left and adjusted the direction of his vomiting so as not to spray the vomit on anyone else. But the people present, especially those at their table, were unlucky.
Whoever smells it knows the smell.
Although Cheng Jianjun vomited, his mind was still clear. The reason why he vomited was because he drank too quickly.
'It's over!'
His first reaction was that it was over and he would never have the face to see anyone again!
‘Han Chunming!!!’
'You and I are at odds with each other!'
This was Cheng Jianjun's second reaction. Although the direct instigator of this incident was Yang Jianhua, who was Yang Jianhua? He was a son of a high-ranking official. He couldn't even curry favor, so how could he dare to offend him?
So, he put the blame on Li Jie.
'No, I have to go back, I can't stay here anymore.'
"Jianjun, are you okay?"
Su Meng was shocked at first when she saw this, but then she remembered that she was the one who initiated this matter. Although she didn't like Cheng Jianjun very much, she was still responsible for this end.
If it were any other time, Su Meng's concern would definitely make Cheng Jianjun overjoyed, but now he just wants to escape from here quickly and avoid other people's strange eyes.
Therefore, Cheng Jianjun turned around and ran towards the door.
…………
"Hey, Su Meng, why don't you go and have a look? Cheng Jianjun must be drunk when he vomits like this. Don't let anything happen."
"Yes, Su Meng, I think what Lan Lan said makes sense. How about you go over and take a look?"
…………
Cheng Jianjun and Su Meng came together, and when they sat together, the people at the same table misunderstood their relationship.
Su Meng was angry and anxious when she heard this. She was so arrogant that she couldn't care less about Cheng Jianjun. She didn't want to have anything to do with Cheng Jianjun, so she quickly explained.
"I have nothing to do with him, we are just ordinary neighbors."
But her explanation was really too pale, and everyone was talking about it, but in fact they didn't believe it in their hearts.
Ten minutes later, Cheng Jianjun still didn't come back. Su Meng felt a little anxious. After all, what happened just now had something to do with her. If anything happened to Cheng Jianjun, his parents would not be able to find her.
'Oh, let's go find him!'
On the other side, Li Jie was arranged by Yang Jianhua to Secretary Yang's table, which was the main table. The people sitting at this table were all people who got along well with each other. Yang Jianhua, Mao Tutu, Chen Jianguo, and Huang Hongliang were all big boys.
, the remaining people have slightly worse backgrounds.
They all saw Cheng Jianjun's performance, but they just made fun of him casually and didn't say much.
Since returning from jumping in the queue, it has been rare for everyone to get together. Obviously reminiscing about old times is more important, and Cheng Jianjun is not worthy of their too much attention.
"Secretary Yang, thank you for last time!"
Li Jie picked up his wine glass and gave a toast to Secretary Yang. He deliberately brought up the matter of reselling eggs. Instead of letting Secretary Yang take the initiative, he should take the topic into his own hands.
"You're welcome. It's rare that you still remember the folks from Xiaoqinghe. I should be the one thanking you for this."
Secretary Yang waved his hand with a smile, raised his glass and touched it with Li Jie. Until then, the last trace of doubt in his heart had completely disappeared.
After the two of them finished drinking, other people at the table became curious and asked what happened, and then Li Jie explained the reason for it in a more elaborate manner.
Of course, the excuse was to collect eggs for his elder brother's factory.
After a while, the waiter brought all the dishes one after another, and the one-meter-long round table was filled to the brim.
Although this party was organized by a few senior cadres' children, the cost was shared equally by everyone. After all, they didn't have much money on hand, so they could only get a discounted price.
After three drinks and five dishes, everyone who had not seen each other for a long time had a hint of drunkenness on their faces. As the party came to an end, Yang Jianhua secretly whispered in Li Jie's ear.
"Chunming, I heard that you haven't found a job yet? Brother, I still have some respect in Sijiu City. Do you want me to find a job for you first?"
Li Jie smiled and said: "Thank you, brother, but I don't need your help with work for the time being, but I have other things I want to ask you for help with."
"That's okay. I just want to talk to you about something else. It seems that the college entrance examination is going to be resumed. We can talk about it after the party is over." Yang Jianhua patted Li Jie on the shoulder and said.
Li Jie feigned surprise and glanced at him: "Really?"
In early April this year, the Ministry of Education seconded many cadres from the education system from various places and held a science and education symposium. The discussion at the meeting was about education issues. This is not a secret among the upper levels.
The college entrance examination will definitely be resumed. This is the common wish of the people nowadays, but the specific time has not yet been determined.
In fact, all participants hope to resume the college entrance examination. The biggest resistance is the "Minutes of the National Education Work Conference" passed at the first education work conference in 1971. The special period has just passed, and a lot of order has not yet been restored. For a while, not much
People dare to stand up and express clear opposition.
Yang Jianhua's father has a higher rank and knows that the main topic of this meeting is the resumption of the college entrance examination. By July, the situation has basically become clear.
"Well, probably, it's either this year or next year. We'll talk about it later. I'll give it away first."
