- When Xu Yishan and Lao Dong arrived at the tavern, the boss was about to close the door.
Old Dong knew the boss very well, and asked him, "Old Min, why did you close the door so early today?"
The old man smiled and explained: "I will not open this tavern in the future."
Xu Yishan asked curiously: "Why don't you open the good one?"
The old man said: "The daughter won't let go, she wants us to go to her to take care of her. I was reluctant at first, but I only have such a daughter. If we don't go, she will have no relatives around her."
The old man's daughter was studying in other provinces, and worked in other places after graduation.
I got married a few years ago, worried about the old couple, and forced to close the old man's tavern.
"You are the last two guests I received." The old man said with a smile: "It's for Xiao Dong's sake. Over the years, Xiao Dong has helped me a lot. We will leave in a few days. It's hard to say whether I can come back."
The old man spoke very sadly, and his emotions immediately infected Xu Yishan and Lao Dong.
Sure enough, the old man declined all the guests who came later.
He hung a sign at the door, "I am old, and family love is precious. I will close my business and meet again in the next life."
Old Dong's eyes were red when he heard that the tavern would not be open in the future.
He waited until the old man finished cooking, and insisted on dragging the old man to have a drink with him.
The old man did not refuse, took off his apron and sat down.
This time the old man brought up all his specialties, and seven or eight dishes filled a table.
Old Dong poured a glass of wine, handed it to the old man, and said affectionately: "Old Min, once you leave, my heart will be empty. Looking for a good place to drink in the future may just be an extravagant wish."
The old man smiled and said: "There is no permanent banquet in the world, just like you are officials. Today we sit at the same table and exchange glasses, but tomorrow we may have to go our separate ways. People, meeting is fate, and when fate ends, people leave. "
Old Dong sighed and said, "I really don't want to part with it."
The old man smiled, picked up the wine glass and poured down the wine.
Xu Yishan didn't expect the old man's drinking capacity to be so good, not inferior to the two young people at all.
The tavern didn't look like it was going to close, everything remained the same.
This old house is the old man's ancestral property. After he left, as he himself said, it is uncertain whether he will be able to come back.
A trace of melancholy welled up in my heart, and the mood of the three of them dropped a lot.
After the old man drank the wine in the glass, he stood up and said, "You two are chatting, I should rest."
Old Dong proposed to check out and leave, so as not to disturb the old man's rest.
The old man smiled and said, "What's the bill? My old man invited you for this meal. And you just stay here, and when you leave, just take it to the door for me."
? The old man resolutely stopped drinking regardless of old Dong and Xu Yishan's persuasion.
Before leaving the table, he smiled lightly and said, "I don't think it's appropriate for me to hear what you want to talk about."
The old man seemed to be able to pinch and count, he guessed that Xu Yishan and Lao Dong had something to say.
As far as Old Dong and Xu Yishan are concerned, they are not only brothers, but also think tanks.
After he told Old Dong that Old Wu misunderstood that he had deliberately hidden his report, Old Dong laughed and said: "Old Xu, pattern, pay attention to pattern. Your pattern can't be too small."
Xu Yishan asked suspiciously: "Why is my structure so small?"
Old Dong said: "Old Wu wants to take the last bus. If he doesn't get on this bus, he can only walk. There are no more cars for him to take. Think about it, if it were you, you would be very enthusiastic. Let him sit? The key point is that when he gets in the car, he cannot help the driver. If the car breaks down, he will not get out of the car to help push it, but will sit on the car and watch others push it. "
Xu Yishan didn't understand at once, he felt that there were too many mysteries in what Old Dong said.
What ride? What broke down? What is pushing and not pushing?
Seeing his confused expression, Old Dong smiled and said, "To put it bluntly, Old Wu has lost value to anyone."
Xu Yishan seems to have realized something.
He and Lao Wu shared the office and often heard Lao Wu complaining that the county leaders were all blind.
Those who have the ability are idle in the wild, and those who follow the trend and come to trouble can be reused.
The implication is that he is an underappreciated general, but it is a pity that he has been hiding in the cold palace and has not been reused throughout his life.
At first, Xu Yishan felt the same way about Lao Wu's complaints.
After listening a lot, I gradually realized that Lao Wu really didn't do anything except complain.??
He has been studying Maoshan local chronicles all his life, but so far, he has not seen him come up with a decent local chronicle article.
Old Dong said in a low voice: "Old Xu, if you have the same knowledge as Old Wu, you won't be far away. Also, you can't still be the same as before, you have to be a little sensitive. I found that you have no heart, This is a big taboo in officialdom."
Xu Yishan said disdainfully: "Shouldn't one be open and aboveboard? I won't do things like forming cliques."
Old Dong took a deep look at him and said, "No one wants you to form a clique, but at least someone has to speak for you. Let me tell you something you don't like to hear. If you didn't have Chen Xiaoqi's parents to give you a platform, you might have been plotted against gone."
Xu Yishan chuckled, and said, "Conspiracy? Someone wants to kill me? Old Dong, alarmist talk is overheard."
Old Dong said seriously: "Old Xu, let's put it this way, I appreciate your integrity, but your childishness really worries me. If a person like you wants to be invincible, he must learn a few skills .¡±
"What's the matter?"
Old Dong hesitated to speak, tapped his fingers lightly on the table and said, "Don't you know that everyone is competing in secret now?"
Xu Yishan asked blankly: "What is it called energy? I feel very calm."
"So, you're naive." Old Dong frowned and said, "It's calm on the surface, but it's turbulent in the dark. Even Old Wu jumped out, and you're still in the dark. What does this mean? One is You are not politically sensitive. The second is that you are waiting to be abandoned."
"Abandoned?"
"Yes, it is abandonment. Think about it, after the country is defeated, it should be rewarded for meritorious deeds, right? If you don't do anything, why are you so embarrassed to get rewards? Even if someone thinks you are capable and wants to use you, But how to convince the public? So, the final outcome is to abandon you. After all, the earth will rotate the same without anyone.¡±
Hearing this, Xu Yishan seemed to understand a little bit.
Isn't Old Dong implying that when it's time to form an alliance, he must form an alliance?
Officialdom is not a bowl of clear water, but a bowl of turbid water so black that the color cannot be seen clearly.
No matter how innocent a person is, if he jumps into this bowl of water, he will become a part of this bowl of water. It is absolutely impossible to come out clean.
He tentatively asked: "Old Dong, please give me some guidance, what should I do?"
Old Dong thought for a while and said: "If you really understand, one thing you have to do now is to recuperate. Shut up, you know?"
"Why shut up?"
"From now on, don't express your opinion on anyone or anything. It's good for you to be peaceful. Also, before the document is released, you should be more content and write your Maoshanshui Wenzhi well. You have to believe, yes Gold always shines."
Old Dong's meaning couldn't be more clear. He knows that Xu Yishan is most disgusted with sycophancy, but precisely, if he lacks this skill in the officialdom, he is destined to have nowhere to go.
He just hoped that Xu Yishan would not come out at this critical moment.
Whoever wins or loses is not necessarily a new beginning for him. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
