Rebirth of Siheyuan starts in the 1980s

"Old Wu, stop drinking!"

"Don't worry, this is Maotai, Maotai!"

After opening Zhao Meifen's hand, Wu Zemin blushed, grabbed the Maotai with half a bottle of wine left, squinted his eyes and looked around, and finally let out a sigh:

"Maotai, hey, Maotai! I have lived for most of my life, and this is the first time I drink it. I only got it thanks to my son-in-law. Okay, okay!"

After saying this, Wu Zemin turned his head and pressed Cao Zhiqiang's shoulder with his other hand: "Xiao Cao, would you like to drink some too?"

Cao Zhiqiang just smiled slightly, and before he could say any words of rejection, Wu Qinghong next to him immediately put down his kuaizi: "Dad, you're here again, how many times have you said it? Zhiqiang can't drink, he doesn't touch alcohol!"

"Oh, yes, yes!" Wu Zemin blushed and nodded, "I don't drink alcohol at all. It's good that I don't drink alcohol at all!"

Immediately afterwards, Wu Zemin took out a pack of cigarettes from his jacket pocket and took one out.

As a result, before he could put the cigarette into his mouth, Zhao Meifen on the other side took it away.

"Why are you so crazy?" Zhao Meifen, who took away the cigarette, glared, "Xiao Cao doesn't smoke. He can't stand the smell of cigarettes. They give you cigarettes because they respect you. If you want to smoke outside, don't do it here.

smoke!"

Wu Zemin, who had his cigarette taken away, clicked his lips, then sighed, turned to look at Cao Zhiqiang again: "Xiao Cao, that's a red panda, you really don't smoke?"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled and shook his head.

Wu Zemin nodded: "You are a grown man, if you don't smoke or drink, what's the point of life?"

Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile: "Life in this world may not only be about smoking and drinking. I have many other pursuits and I have no time for smoking and drinking."

"What about the exchange of favors?" Wu Zemin stared at Cao Zhiqiang with red eyes, "To call friends, you have to eat and drink. At the wine party, everyone else smokes and drinks, but you don't come. This is very unsociable and it is easy to have no friends!"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled again: "I usually don't need to attend that kind of dinner. Even if I have to attend, in most cases, they come according to my wishes, not I follow their wishes, so I don't want to smoke or drink. Everyone just comes.

Don't smoke or drink, or don't come to my drinking party."

Seemingly seeing Wu Zemin in a daze, Cao Zhiqiang blinked and immediately followed: "Of course, some special people don't have to do this. For example, if we have dinner with you, you can smoke and drink as much as you want, but I forget it, it's really not good for me.

"

Wu Zemin blinked, then suddenly exhaled, and turned to look at Chen Meifang: "Look, look, this is my son-in-law, he is grand, but he is different from other people!"

Immediately afterwards, Wu Zemin turned his head again and picked up his glass of wine: "Xiao Cao, you are right. Since ancient times, tigers have always laughed alone in the mountains and forests. Only jackals need to stay in groups. It's because I don't have enough structure. Come on.

, I’ll give you a toast!”

"Okay!" Cao Zhiqiang smiled and picked up the cup of tea in front of him, "I would like to replace the wine with tea, and I would like to respect you too!"

The two sides clinked glasses with each other, then Wu Zemin drank the Moutai in one gulp, and Cao Zhiqiang also drank the tea in the cup.

After finishing the glass, Wu Zemin suddenly covered his forehead: "Oh, I can't do it anymore, I'm too drunk."

Speaking of this, Wu Zemin stood up unsteadily: "I'm happy today, I, I..."

As soon as he said this, Wu Zemin suddenly fell to the ground with a thud.

"dad!"

"Old Wu!"

Two voices appeared almost at the same time, namely Wu Qinghong and Zhao Meifen.

As for Cao Zhiqiang, he didn't say anything, but squatted down and first tested Wu Zemin's carotid artery.

Yes, Cao Zhiqiang did not help the other party up first, but first tested the other party's pulse to determine whether there was any danger.

Most people don't know, but Cao Zhiqiang has some medical knowledge from later generations, plus the top-level Chinese massage rewarded by the system. Although he cannot compare with a real doctor, he still knows some basic first aid common sense.

For example, after drinking too much and suddenly falling drunk, this kind of thing may seem like nothing, but in fact it can be big or small.

Of course it's fine if you're just drunk, but if the blood vessels are not good in the first place and the blood vessels explode after being drunk, then it's a big problem.

But no matter what the situation is, it is best not to help the person up immediately after being drunk. Instead, let the person lie down first, then check the pulse to make sure there is no problem, and then slowly help the person up.

"Don't move, just spread out!" Cao Zhiqiang, who was touching Wu Zemin's carotid artery, suddenly said to other people gathered around him, "Don't get together, it affects the air circulation and is bad for breathing."

Upon hearing this, Wu Qinghong was the first to retreat and said to her mother: "Mom, listen to him and get out of the way."

After both of them retreated and made way for an open space, Cao Zhiqiang narrowed his eyes and continued to touch Wu Zemin's carotid artery.

After feeling that although his pulse was fast, it was still stable, Cao Zhiqiang slowly helped Wu Zemin up.

"Uncle Wu is drunk." Cao Zhiqiang said, "I'll help him go to the room to rest, you can do whatever you want."

"No, no, I'll do it." Zhao Meifen hurriedly came over and held Wu Zemin's other side, "Xiao Cao, you haven't eaten much yet, go have a good meal with them and chat with them, Old Wu

Just leave it to me."

"Auntie, can this be done?" Cao Zhiqiang looked at Zhao Meifen.

"Why not?" Zhao Meifen looked blank, "He has been drunk so many times that I can't even remember. I didn't help him back home every time."

Hearing Zhao Meifen's calm tone, Cao Zhiqiang stopped insisting and slowly let go.

Zhao Meifen said to Cao Zhiqiang and Wu Qinghong at this time: "You two have a good time, don't worry about us."

After saying that, Zhao Meifen helped the unconscious Wu Zemin to the upper room, which was the east room.

The east room was originally the place where Cao Zhiqiang and Wu Qinghong lived, but after Zhao Meifen and Wu Zemin came, the upper room naturally had to be vacated for the two elders to live in, while Qinghong had to move to the lower room, which is the west room.

The east room and west room, of course, refer to the main room of the north house.

Then the east wing was given to Wu Qinghong's younger brother Wu Qingbai to live alone, and the west wing was given to Gu Zhenzhen.

As for this dinner, Wu Qinghong's younger brother Wu Qingbai and Wu Qinghong's best friend Xiaozhen were also at the table. After all, it was just an ordinary family dinner, or lunch. There were not many people, so there was no need to divide the tables into different sizes.

.

But after Wu Zemin drank too much and started talking nonsense, Zhao Meifen quickly asked her son to leave.

Gu Zhenzhen was also a discerning person. When she saw Zhao Meifen letting her son leave, she took the initiative to say that she was full, and then took Wu Qingbai out of the dinner and went outside for a walk.

So then only four people, Wu Zemin, Zhao Meifen, Wu Qinghong and Cao Zhiqiang, were left at the dinner table.

In this case, you can say some things casually without worrying about inappropriate people being present.

No matter what, as soon as Zhao Meifen and Wu Zemin left, the atmosphere at the dinner table instantly became relaxed, at least that was the case for Cao Zhiqiang and Wu Qinghong.

After looking at each other, Cao Zhiqiang and Wu Qinghong laughed at the same time.

Suddenly, Wu Qinghong stood up from the chair, then sat directly on Cao Zhiqiang's lap, hugging his neck: "Zhiqiang, I miss you!"

Cao Zhiqiang was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and hugged the other person: "I miss you too, Qinghong."

"I really miss you, every day and every night!" Wu Qinghong hugged Cao Zhiqiang tightly, "Zhiqiang, I have never felt like this before. I, I only realized after I left you this time that I can't live without you!"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly and patted Wu Qinghong on the back: "Don't worry, we will always be together."

"Yeah!" Wu Qinghong then let go of her hand, kissed Cao Zhiqiang again, and then started to move forward, wanting to kiss Cao Zhiqiang.

It was obvious that Wu Qinghong was moved.

"Wait, wait, wait!" Cao Zhiqiang said quickly, "Don't be impatient now. Let's talk after dinner."

Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang subconsciously looked back at the east room, and then whispered: "Qinghong, your parents are still here, and your best friend and your brother are outside. What if someone breaks into you?"

"But I can't help it." Qinghong bit her lip, "I, I, I miss you so much!"

Cao Zhiqiang nodded and whispered: "I've endured it for so long, if I can endure it a little longer, I'll stay with you tonight, I'll make sure you have enough to eat."

"Disgusting!" Wu Qinghong's face turned red, she rolled her eyes at Cao Zhiqiang, but left Cao Zhiqiang's lap and sat back in her seat.

Seeing Wu Qinghong like this, Cao Zhiqiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, Cao Zhiqiang really has no desire now.

The reason is simple. He had already vented all his energy on Hao Shuwen last night.

There is a saying that among the women Cao Zhiqiang is familiar with, there are actually only three women with whom he has actually had a relationship. They are really very few.

But Wu Qinghong and Jin Xiuying, although they gave it to Cao Zhiqiang for the first time, they were too raw. Simply put, they had less experience and the experience was slightly worse.

Hao Shuwen is different, she is the mother of a child, and due to her personality, she is very open-minded.

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang's experience with Hao Shuwen was the best.

Coupled with Hao Shuwen's status bonus, Cao Zhiqiang could not help but sneak to the West Sea, where Hao Shuwen lived.

Cao Zhiqiang finally understood some of the reasons for Boss Cao Cao's personal hobbies. It is indeed better to be familiar with this matter of yin and yang exchange.

Of course, Cao Zhiqiang's visit to Hao Shuwen was not entirely for that reason.

In fact, the main reason why Cao Zhiqiang took care of Hao Shuwen was for official reasons, that is, to help her with vocal training and male and female duet rehearsals.

Because the song "Blood Stained Style" also has a male and female duet version, Cao Zhiqiang plans to sing a male and female duet version with Hao Shuwen, and then release it in Hao Shuwen's subsequent solo album.

By then, Cao Zhiqiang will probably already have a certain reputation, and then using this male-female duet version and adding it to Hao Shuwen's solo album will play a boosting role. To put it bluntly, he will support Hao Shuwen.

Although Hao Shuwen's voice is average, even a little hoarse and low, and cannot be compared with a talented singer like Teresa Teng, it is not bad either.

Cao Zhiqiang feels that if Hao Shuwen's slightly hoarse and deep voice adopts the smoke voice route and specifically practices the smoke voice, the effect will be quite good.

This is exactly the case.

After long-term pronunciation practice over the past few days, and Hao Shuwen's deep knowledge of music theory, she has been able to master a unique tobacco voice.

This kind of smoky voice is of a majestic type, somewhat similar to a female singer named Wu Moqiu in Cao Zhiqiang's previous life, but a little tougher.

Although it is a bit strange to sing "Blood-stained Style" with a mellow voice, but if Cao Zhiqiang deliberately used the dolphin sound in the throat to match and cross-talk, then it would be different if it matched her more neutral cigarette voice.

The smell is in it.

However, although Cao Zhiqiang went to see Hao Shuwen mainly for work, he couldn't help but have in-depth exchanges with each other after work.

For example, last night, Cao Zhiqiang had an in-depth exchange with Hao Shuwen for most of the night. Cao Zhiqiang regretted it afterwards and hated his lack of will.

So, although Cao Zhiqiang is a little moved now after seeing Wu Qinghong, for the sake of his health, he still needs to take care of himself more.

It's too late to cut it off, he's still taking Chinese medicine!

Not to mention that Cao Zhiqiang and Wu Qinghong had a delicious lunch for two there.

At this time, Zhao Meifen had just helped Wu Zemin, who was unconscious, to lie down on the bed in the upper room. She then closed the door and sat on the bedside, watching Wu Zemin without saying a word.

After looking at Wu Zemin for a full minute, Zhao Meifen said expressionlessly: "Okay, Old Wu, there is no one else here, so stop pretending."

Finding that Wu Zemin still had his eyes closed and didn't know what was going on, Zhao Meifen sighed: "If you keep pretending, then I'm leaving."

As soon as he finished saying this, he saw Wu Zemin suddenly open his eyes.

After opening his eyes, Wu Zemin looked around, then suddenly sat up: "Is there really no one else?"

"Of course." Zhao Meifen said expressionlessly, "Qinghong and Xiao Cao are still eating there, Xiaozhen and Qingbai went out to play, and it's just you and me here."

Wu Zemin sighed: "Meifen, you are still awesome, you can see that I am not drunk."

"Hmph." Zhao Meifen curled her lips, "After all these years, I still don't know how much you drink? And I am very familiar with the way you talk nonsense when you are drunk. Are you pretending to be drunk or are you really drunk?

I can tell it at a glance."

Wu Zemin nodded: "I knew it, you understand me best. We are indeed an old couple!"

"Stop talking about that." Zhao Meifen frowned slightly, "It's rare that my uncle invites you to dinner and helps you to cleanse yourself. What do you mean by deliberately pretending to be drunk? Are you still not satisfied with him?"

Wu Zemin was silent for a moment, and then sighed: "Satisfied, so satisfied, but a little too satisfied."

"What do you mean?" Zhao Meifen asked.

Wu Zemin took a deep breath, then raised his head and said: "Meifen, you know, I am not a completely unreasonable person, and before I came here, you have been saying that Cao Zhiqiang is good, so it's not that I don't believe you.

Then, after coming here, although I still don’t know the specific situation of Cao Zhiqiang, I can just look at his generosity, look at the respect others have for him, look at his imported special car, and casually drink Maotai to others.

, he casually booked a table and a banquet with a foreign-related hotel and had it delivered to his door, so he knew he was not an ordinary person.

Even with his behavior, the director of our factory was not so majestic and luxurious!

I also know that he is not only a poet, but also the president of a state-owned publishing house!

The president of a state-owned publishing house! Or the president of Beijing Publishing House!

Others don’t know what it means, so you and I can’t help but know, right?”

"So what?" Zhao Meifen said solemnly, "Isn't this great?"

"Very good?" Wu Zemin suddenly turned to look at Zhao Meifen, "Meifen, we are all educated city dwellers, not short-sighted and ignorant country folk. Do you really think this is good?"

Seeing that Zhao Meifen suddenly stopped talking, Wu Zemin said: "It seems that you have the same idea as me, and you also think there are many problems here, right?"

After taking another deep breath, Wu Zemin sighed again: "I won't talk about anything else. The biggest problem between them is that they don't belong together!"
