The winery's thank-you banquet today was quite a battle. Not only the members of the Daxindian who helped during this period, but also the cadres of all sizes in the commune and the village cadres of each brigade were invited.
Including the employees and family members of their winery, there are at least 450 people.
Therefore, the winery is particularly lively today.
At around eight o'clock, invited village cadres and commune cadres arrived one after another.
But Chu Heng was very busy.
He didn't need to take care of the small cadres, but he had to personally greet and accompany the brigade captains, Kong Chuan and other commune leaders.
After all, I still owe people money...
"Uncle Kong, drink tea."
"Smoke, smoke!"
"Captain Pan, come in quickly, come in quickly, Captain Liu Xi is planning to play poker."
"Hey, Captain Tang, is there any happy event for you? Why is your face so red!"
Chu Heng was busy inside and outside. One moment he was chatting with people in the room, and the next moment he had to go out to pick up people. He almost lost his shoes.
…
It's past eleven o'clock,
Stimulated by the delicious food, the members and employees who doubled their work efficiency completed their tasks ahead of schedule.
Chu Heng stood on the top of a hill, looking around at the bare grapevines all over the mountains and fields, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
After working so hard for so long, rushing slowly and hurriedly, I finally completed the planting task in the best time.
And he could finally retire and leave this barren ravine.
As for the rest of the regular inspections of diseases and insect pests, watering, weeding, fertilizing, etc., he doesn't need to worry about it. If Lu Yansong can't even do this, he won't go back to Sijiu City and go directly. Forget about supporting construction in the Northwest.
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone, go back and wash up and then we'll have a feast. We've taken care of the food and wine for today."
Chu Heng came down from the top of the mountain in a hurry and greeted the heroes to go back with a smile.
Not long after.
The large group of people returned to the residential area.
Looking at the earth stoves in front of the kitchen with the aroma of meat, many people swallowed their saliva in dismay.
After Chu Heng came back, he went to the kitchen and took a look. Seeing that everything was almost ready, he went back to the house and invited the village cadres and commune cadres to come out and sit down.
After the members and employees had washed themselves down and were seated, Jiang Fanghao, under Chu Heng's instruction, directed a group of young men to start serving food and wine.
After the food and wine are served.
Chu Heng, the grandson of Chu Heng, stood up again and came to the outside with a glass of wine. He thanked him sincerely for a long time before he drank half of the glass of white wine. Then the banquet was announced.
There was no need to say much during the dinner, it was just a matter of drinking and feasting.
The banquet lasted until about three o'clock in the afternoon, and the banquet finally ended.
Chu Heng, who had been busy for a whole day, arranged for someone to take Kong Chuan, who had vowed not to drink with him several times but was drunk again by him, back. He did not worry about the follow-up finishing work and ran back to the house with his tired body. After getting in, he threw himself on the kang and fell asleep.
…
The next day, early morning.
As soon as it dawned, Chu Heng, Cen Hao and others got up quickly and started packing their things and getting ready to go home.
Their train departed from Yantai at ten o'clock in the morning and went directly to Sijiucheng.
"Team leader."
Jiang Fanghao packed his luggage and asked Chu Heng with an expectant look on his face: "What will I be mainly responsible for after I go back?"
"For now, let's study with Li Jiangqi for a while. I'll take you to Hong Kong Island later to see more." Chu Heng said with a smile.
"Really?!" Jiang Fanghao was excited. He didn't expect that he would be able to go abroad in this life.
"Do I need to lie to you about this?"
Chu Heng glanced at him, closed the suitcase hard, and hung the small lock. He got up and went to the table, sat down at the table, picked up the gruel that Cen Hao had brought back, and poured it into his stomach.
Jiang Fanghao followed him. He was in his thirties. He rubbed his hands with a smile like a child and asked: "Team leader, what is Hong Kong like? Can you tell me about it? I haven't been there yet. , afraid of being embarrassed in the past.”
"I've been there before you've been there?" Chu Heng rolled his eyes and pushed his lunch box: "Okay, okay, eat quickly, and we'll leave as soon as we're done."
"Alas."
Jiang Fanghao nodded disappointedly, picked up the lunch box absently and drank away.
The old god Cen Hao on the side was eating his meal, not jealous because he was going to Hong Kong Island.
Chu Heng is so afraid of death, and he will definitely be one of the imperial guards when the time comes. What is there to envy?
This went on for a while.
After the three of them had finished eating, they quickly packed up and came out of the house with their luggage, loading it into the Jiefang car parked at the door. Then they said a few words to Lu Yansong and others who came out to see them off. , got into the cab and set off.
At around nine o'clock, the big truck arrived outside Yantai Railway Station.
"Thanks, brother, you can take this cigarette and smoke it."
Chu Heng threw two packs of cigarettes to the driver, opened the door, jumped out of the cab with Cen Hao and others, and then climbed into the car to take out their luggage. The three of them entered the station with large and small bags.
The train station was a mess, with young people all dressed in green everywhere. There were not only locals, but also many foreigners with different accents, who didn’t know where they were going.
Chu Heng glanced at these people, and the three of them walked into the noisy crowd with their luggage, found a seat in the waiting room, and sat down. They endured the noise in their ears, breathed in the turbid air, and waited. It took almost half an hour before I finally boarded the train home.
With a deafening whistle, the dark train started slowly.
Chu Heng lay on the berth, looking at the retreating scenery outside the window, his heart getting hotter and hotter.
It has been more than 20 days since he came out this time, so he misses Xiao Ni very much.
The train stopped and stopped all the way. For some inexplicable reasons, the journey that originally only took more than twenty hours to reach took more than thirty hours to reach Sijiu City.
At around 10pm on March 26, a black train puffing out smoke pulled into Sijiucheng Station.
After a while, a huge crowd of people poured out of the station.
Chu Heng and the three of them were among them.
After coming out of the station, looking at the familiar scenery hidden in the dim light, Chu Heng's fatigue was instantly wiped away, and he felt relaxed all over his body.
"Master Chu!"
At this moment, Du San, who had been waiting here for a whole day after receiving the telegram in advance, trotted over with Jiang Keba and a dozen other brothers.
When he came closer, he glanced at the tanned Chu Heng and couldn't help but grin: "Oh, why are you so sifted? If Cen Hao hadn't been standing next to you, I wouldn't have dared to recognize you!"
"That's because of your eyesight!" Chu Heng handed the luggage in his hand to Han Xu, punched him with a smile, and strode out of the station: "I didn't tell your sister-in-law that I was back, did I?"
"No, no, you specifically told me, how dare I." Du San said quickly.
The grandson planned to surprise his wife, so he only notified Du San to pick him up when he came back this time.
