Two middle-aged men and a young guy.
"You didn't have to wait long, did you?" Li Jinghong grinned.
"No!" One of the middle-aged men waved his hand.
"Lao Wang's guy hasn't arrived yet!" Another middle-aged man laughed and cursed.
"When is that guy not late? Let him punish himself with three drinks later!" Li Jinghong said.
"Is this young man your son Zhao Xiaojie?" Then Li Jinghong looked at the young man.
Qin Yi glanced at the young man. He was about in his early twenties and looked a bit honest.
"Yes, Xiaojie, why don't you call me Uncle Li!" Zhao Jianhui glared at his son.
"Hello, Uncle Li." Zhao Xiaojie said hello quickly.
"Well, not bad, you look like a talented person! Now that you have entered the county government job, as long as you work hard in the future, you will definitely get ahead!" Li Jinghong encouraged.
"Uncle Li, I will definitely work hard."
"By the way, let me introduce to you. His name is Qin Yi, and he is my niece's savior." Li Jinghong pointed at Qin Yi, and then explained: "Xiao Qin, these two are my old comrades. His name is Zhao Jianhui, his name is Liu Kairong. Especially Lao Zhao, he saved my life when I was a soldier!"
"Hello, Uncle Zhao, hello, Uncle Liu." Qin Yi greeted with a smile.
"Hello, hello, I heard Lao Li mention you. You are so brave and courageous, just like me back then, haha!" Liu Kairong said with a loud voice.
Qin Yi smiled back.
No wonder I saw these two people sitting so upright when I came in! It turned out that he was a soldier, but he didn't expect that Li Jinghong had been a soldier before.
What's more, this Zhao Jianhui also saved Li Jinghong's life. It seems that Li Jinghong has a very deep friendship with them!
At this moment, the box door was pushed open.
Two people walked in.
"I'm not late, am I?" Wang Yanbin smiled.
"You're the latest, you'll punish yourself with three drinks later!" Li Jinghong laughed and scolded.
"Drink, I will definitely drink! By the way, let me introduce to you, this is my little Zhou Jiayu. When I first arrived in Sanjiang County today, he dragged me to his house as a guest, and he insisted on keeping me in his house. During dinner, I said I wanted to eat with my comrades, but he still held me back. He and I hadn’t seen each other for a long time, so I shamelessly dragged him here too," Wang Yanbin explained.
"Oh, it's okay, I'm a guest." Li Jinghong smiled, naturally knowing what Wang Yanbin was thinking, but generally speaking, he didn't dislike it if he had many friends and many paths.
"Old Zhou, this is Mr. Li I often tell you. He is currently working on engineering projects. Old Li, I am a young boy and now work in the county organization department. I am currently the deputy minister."
"Hello, Mr. Li, it's our first time meeting you. I'm going to toast you a few more times later." Zhou Jiayu said with a smile. He came here with Fa Xiao because he heard from Fa that Mr. Li's eldest brother, County Magistrate Li, might show up at the dinner party tonight, so he shamelessly asked Fa Xiao to bring him over.
Although he is a deputy minister, he is only at the level of a full-time official. How can he usually have the opportunity to sit at the same table with the second-in-command of Sanjiang County like County Magistrate Li?
If he can become familiar with County Magistrate Li, it will be a good network expansion for him in the future.
"It's easy to talk about."
Qin Yi next to him saw that the person in front of him turned out to be Zhou Jiayu, the deputy director of the Organization Department. His expression did not change, but he secretly thought that the world is really small.
Isn't this the one who got promoted?
Although there are clear reasons for this.
But overall, he is also his enemy!
But he didn't say anything, and it was obvious that Zhou Jiayu in front of him didn't recognize him either.
Then, Wang Yanbin introduced him again. When he saw Qin Yi, he looked at everyone. It was obvious that he did not know Qin Yi.
"Just call him Xiao Qin." Li Jinghong said.
A group of people sat down, and the dishes and wine were served.
"Old Li, isn't your elder brother County Magistrate Li coming?" Zhao Jianhui couldn't help but ask when he saw that almost everyone was here, but Magistrate Li didn't appear.
He brought his son to see Li Jinghong for dinner this time, mainly because he asked Li Jinghong shamelessly, hoping to let his son get to know County Magistrate Li and make his son feel familiar in front of County Magistrate Li.
After all, his son has just joined the county government. If he can become familiar with County Magistrate Li, he believes that his future work will be much smoother.
Li Jinghong knew what his comrade was thinking. He specially organized this dinner and even told his elder brother about it. Because Zhao Jianhui saved his life, he did this.
"My eldest brother has another dinner party, but he told me that he will come over for a few drinks later. Don't worry, my eldest brother will definitely come back." Li Jinghong comforted.
"Okay, I was abrupt." Zhao Jianhui blushed.
When Qin Yi heard this, he immediately understood.
It seems that today's dinner party is this Zhao Jianhui paving the way for his son.
"Come on, let's eat and drink first! Xiao Qin, bring up all the wine!" Li Jinghong winked at Qin Yi.
"Okay." Qin Yi also opened the box of Honghualang 15, took out two bottles, and started pouring wine.
"Come on, let's have three drinks first!"
A toast!
Drink it all in one gulp.
Generally, at a wine party, everyone starts with three drinks, and then they can have free time.
After three cups, everyone started chatting while eating.
"Uncle Li, let me toast you!" Zhao Xiaojie picked up the wine glass and went to Li Jinghong to toast.
"Okay, good luck!" Li Jinghong smiled and downed the drink in one gulp.
After finishing the drink, he winked at Qin Yi again, which seemed to mean, okay, you can start performing.
Qin Yi understood, he directly picked up a large wine glass, poured three ounces into it, stood up, and walked to Zhao Jianhui's right hand. This is the etiquette of toasting. Toasting on the right hand of others shows respect.
"Uncle Zhao, let me toast you!"
Zhao Jianhui's eyes widened when he saw Qin Yi changed into a larger wine glass, which was just for three taels.
People toast with three-cent small wine glasses, but you just toast with three-cent and two-cent large wine glasses. This is fatal!
Just as he was about to speak, Li Jinghong spoke first: "Old Zhao, this junior Xiao Qin is going to toast you with a large cup. You shouldn't be drinking from a three-cent wine glass, right? You should also be getting a large wine glass!"
"Yes, yes! We must treat everyone equally! I'll pour you a drink!" Liu Kairong, who was watching the excitement, didn't think it was a big deal and just poured three or two taels for the other party.
"Since it is the juniors who are toasting, I, as the senior, will naturally drink!" Zhao Jianhui naturally would not let these comrades laugh at the joke.
Gurgling.
Both of them drank with their heads raised.
Three liang, 52 degrees!
To be honest, Zhao Jianhui felt like his stomach was burning after eating it for a few times, mainly because he was in a hurry! It's just three liang when you first drink it. How can you drink it later?
"They are all good drinkers!" Li Jinghong applauded.
Qin Yi poured himself another three ounces, picked up the wine glass, and walked to Liu Kairong next to him: "Uncle Liu, I want to toast you too!"
Damn it, is this the rhythm of a lap of respect?
