Chapter 34 One night, two drinks, three people
“Buy a scooter first.”
Zhou Yutang is very pragmatic.
The pilot broadcast of the TV series was a hit, and the publishing house immediately began arranging for the publication of physical books. There was a new book signing event in Beijing a few years ago.
Zhou Yutang received another advance payment of royalties, amounting to around 200,000 yuan.
Coupled with the income from new book sales and future TV series, there is no shortage of money for the time being.
Thinking of driving Mr. Zhang’s Mazda into traffic jams every day, Zhou Yutang decided to buy a car for a change.
Okay.
Actually, it’s not appropriate to drive someone else’s car all the time.
Although Zhang Ruojun doesn't mind, Zhou Yutang doesn't like the feeling of borrowing other people's things.
The goal was very clear. I made a phone call before setting off. The store was still holding activities.
Then there was no need to hesitate. I went to the store with Zhang Ruojun that afternoon and drove the Passat back directly for 16.80 thousand.
After buying the car, I went to his house with Zhang Ruojun.
Zhou Yutang finally met the famous director, producer and businessman Zhang Zhenba.
And Zhang Ruojun’s stepmother.
That was the first generation of Da Sa Mi in Beijing.
Dad Zhang has short hair, a tough demeanor, and his eyebrows are very similar to Zhang Ruojun. He is quite like the feudal patriarchal style of ancient times.
“Yu Tang, come on, come on.”
When I saw Zhou Yutang, I immediately opened my arms and greeted him warmly with a smile.
"Hello Uncle Zhang, hello Aunt Liu."
Zhou Yutang also responded politely.
Put away the tea, Moutai and other gifts that you bought in advance in the future tense.
"You kid, you just have a simple meal, why do you bring so many things?"
Aunt Liu Bei smiled with crooked eyes, and she had the charm of a mature woman.
“That’s right, I just came in a hurry and bought some casually.”
Zhou Yutang also said politely.
Although he is comparable to Zhang Ruojun and his son, when meeting Zhang Zhen's father, everyone has their own opinions, and he still needs to be polite.
"Xiaotang!"
Dad Zhang put his arms around Zhou Yutang's shoulders and patted him hard: "I always hear Guoli mention you, you are young and promising! Don't be cautious, don't You're welcome, just treat yourself like your own son when you come."
"Thank you, Uncle Zhang."
After the polite greetings, Father Zhang praised Zhou Yutang again, and Aunt Liu Bei was also laughing and talking to Yan Yan while looking at the young man.
The more you look at it, the more pleasing it becomes.
Many little girls only recognize handsome guys.
But mature women are different. They pay attention to more things besides appearance.
Although Zhou Yutang is impeccably handsome, but more importantly, he possesses other qualities that make even this first-generation Sami stand out.
The circle has been really quiet for too long.
The last one who became popular was Xu Cainü.
Zhou Yutang followed a similar path to Xu Cainv, and he was also famous for his talent.
However, in Aunt Liu Bei's opinion, compared to Xu Talented Girl, who is favored by Beijing circles and whose background is somewhat unworthy of her reputation, the polite and handsome boy in front of her is much better.
Write your own book and adapt it into a script, then invest your own money to find people to organize the show, and the show will become a hit right before your eyes.
Along the way, I have no background and rely entirely on myself. This is really awesome.
Zhou Yutang also noticed Aunt Liu Bei's friendly gaze
Smiled and nodded in response.
Of course, what caught his attention more was Dad Zhang.
Dad Zhang’s attitude towards himself was far more enthusiastic than towards his own son. He frequently encouraged him to drink during the dinner and said that he would cooperate in the future.
What else can Zhou Yutang say about this, except that he will definitely have the opportunity in the future.
On the contrary, Aunt Liu Bei has a high emotional intelligence and is very concerned about Zhang Ruojun's feelings.
Seeing that Zhang’s father was neglecting him, he kept picking up food for him and asked about some things in the school with concern.
There is nothing wrong with this stepmother.
The atmosphere of this family dinner was a bit stiff. Zhang Ruojun was very silent and did not take the initiative to say a word to his father during the dinner.
After it was over, the two went back to school together.
After Zhou Yutang drank, he took the passenger seat and let Zhang Ruojun drive.
Seeing the sunny and cheerful Zhang Ruojun for the first time, he looked out the window with his face slightly tilted.
Zhou Yutang glanced out of the corner of his eye and could see the slightly lonely expression of the thin dog reflected on the car window.
“Yu Tang, you should know now why I bother him so much, right?”
"Alas."
Zhou Yutang sighed and patted Zhang Ruojun on the shoulder.
Zhang Ruojun's parents divorced when he was very young, and he was raised by his grandparents since he was a child.
Dad Zhang is very busy, often filming on the set, and may not be able to go home even once in several months.
When I came back, I also acted like a grown-up, and I always had an almost harsh attitude towards Zhang Ruojun.
Under such circumstances, it is really not easy for a small dog to grow wildly into the sunny and cheerful boy he is today.
Thinking about it, Zhou Yutang suddenly understood.
Because he grew up in such a family atmosphere, it is no wonder that Zhang Ruojun is so keen to prove his ability in order to escape from his father's wings.
This is a family matter. Even if Zhou Yutang has a good relationship with Zhang Ruojun, it is difficult to say anything.
But no matter what, his friendship with Zhang Ruojun will not change. They will always be brothers.
After all, Zhang Ruojun helped Zhou Yutang to some extent in his first step into this circle.
Zhang Ruojun clenched the steering wheel with both hands and turned his head with red eyes to prevent Zhou Yutang from seeing.
Zhou Yutang played a car CD.
It is "Sailor" by Zheng Zhihua.
“He said that in the wind and rain, this little pain is nothing
Wipe away your tears and don’t be afraid, at least we still have dreams. "
Some words don't need to be said.
Zhou Yutang called Zhu Yilong on the way: "Brother Long, are you finished over there? "
"Well, the activity is over and I have just returned to school. Will you come back tonight? "
"Come out and drink. ”
"Oh."
Brother Long seemed to feel something when he heard the voice. He had a tacit understanding and didn't ask any more questions. He only said that a new open-air barbecue stall had recently opened near the school.
The boss is from Brother Long’s hometown. He just started the late-night snack business, and now he is doing opening activities to attract customers. He wants to take care of the business of his fellow villagers.
Zhou Yutang has no objection.
At times like this, what matters is not what you eat, but what you drink and who you drink with.
Got to the place.
There is a big tricycle parked on the empty roadside, and there is an eye-catching sign called Sichuan Flavor Wharf.
As soon as the gas tank is turned on, the fire is fully activated.
The cooking boss looks a bit like the king of Northeast China. He is wearing blue work clothes, with his sleeves rolled up and a towel around his neck. He is stirring the spoon over the fire with a skillful technique.
There is a grill on the side.
Smoke from fireworks floated in the air.
There are more than a dozen tables in the erected shed. The business seems to be picking up. Apart from Zhou Yutang and others, there are still a few tables of customers.
The boss is in charge of cooking, while the landlady with a Sichuan accent walks around diligently, serving food to the guests with a smile on her face, and picking up the trash at the same time.
Brother Long went up to communicate in his native dialect and chose a seat to sit down.
I ordered a box of beer first, then a Sichuan-style chicken pot, and then a vegetarian stir-fried duba, sixtieth skewers, and green onion mashed potatoes.
Secret beef skewers, mutton skewers and barbecue tendons are also arranged.
Almost there.
Failing to find the wine opener, Zhou Yutang knocked the beer bottle against the corner of the table, and the lid of Yong Chu Tian Ya flew out with white foam rising.
Before I had time to pour the wine, Senior Sister Yang Mi sent a message, saying that she was bored without an announcement, and asked Zhou Yutang if he wanted to play games together.
“If you don’t play, something is wrong.”
Zhou Yutang simply replied and turned off his phone.
Looking at Zhang Ruojun's gloomy expression and not saying a word, Zhu Yilong probably knew what was going on.
In the afternoon, Zhou Yutang sent a message saying that he would go to Zhang Ruojun's house for dinner in the evening and it would be like this when he came back.
The three of them had a drink together first. The cold feeling made people feel a bit heady.
The little dog hasn’t spoken yet, come again!
It was better now. After three drinks in a row, Zhang Ruojun blushed a little and finally spoke.
"No, I have to slow down..."
Waving his hands to show that he couldn't do it anymore, he ate a few roast beef skewers. Just open the chat box.
Normal communication patterns were restored.
Zhou Yutang took a sip of wine and asked, "Ruojun, do you have any dreams?"
"Dreams? Don't laugh at me if you tell me."
There was still a trace of Zi on his lips. The innocent Zhang Ruojun grinned and said: "Actually, since I was a child, I didn't have any dreams, so I just messed around." It’s common to surf the Internet. Have you ever skipped class to perm your hair?”
“Oh, by the way, I had lip nails on my mouth before, but then I had them removed because I was going to film school. Anyway, what happened? Rebellion comes wherever you go. It’s really funny to think about myself at that time."
"You have so much experience."
Brother Long suppressed his words.
"Is it rich?"
Zhang Ruojun picked up a glass and drank it himself: "I just want to use this method to attract his attention and make him look at me more."< br>
Brother Long said nothing, and Zhou Yutang also fell silent.
Don't advise others to be kind without doing their business.
After all, they have never had such a rough experience as Zhang Ruojun, and they are not qualified to say nonsense like telling him to look away.
But as Xigou’s adoptive father, Zhou Yutang feels the same way.
"Brother Long, what about you?"
"Me?"
Brother Long put down his chopsticks and chuckled: "My experience is actually very ordinary. My dad is a Sanda champion. He felt that I was not masculine enough since I was a child, so he threw me into the Sanda team."
He stretched out his hand. He compared the height of the table and said, "A little carrot head of about this size was training and sparring with eight or nine-year-old children. His body was covered in bruises every day. My mother was almost heartbroken at that time."
< br>"No wonder, at that time we were fighting with those grandsons from the School of Foreign Languages. Brother Long, you brought down several of them."
Zhang Ruojun nodded: "Where are you, Yu Tang?"
"I ?”
Zhou Yutang chuckled and said, "I'm different. Girls fought for me when I was in school. The school called parents. My mother almost fainted."
"Haha! You are so coquettish! ”
Neither Zhang Ruojun nor Zhu Yilong could hold back their laughter.
The three of them had another drink.
Speaking of the military training at the beginning of the school year, three people in the dormitory fought against more than a dozen people across from each other without fear. This incident laid the foundation of the relationship between the three of them.
Zhu Yilong was actually not very good at drinking, but he still drank a lot of wine and had a skewer of beef. He chuckled and said:
"Actually, my fighting is all about skills, but Yu Tang's is about physical talent. With such physical condition, if you get professional training, you will be very powerful."
"Brother Long, you are amazing, but Yu Tang is a pervert. How about we stop being a star and become a special forces soldier. King?”
Drinking too quickly, Zhang Ruojun got a little drunk and started talking nonsense.
“No problem, I might play a special forces king if I have the chance in the future.”
Zhou Yutang smiled leisurely.
Continue to listen to Zhu Yilong talk about his dream: "Later I went to high school, but my grades were not ideal. I got extra points for basketball in the college entrance examination, and then I was admitted to the film school."
"I feel like , my life should not just be like this, that’s why I decided to set a goal for myself. It doesn’t mean that I must achieve it, but at least I have a direction to work towards.”
“If I have the opportunity, I want to. Bring back a trophy to the film school’s history museum.”
Brother Long’s eyes were shining.
The School History Museum of the Film School is a showcase of honors and a shrine that countless students of the younger generation admire in their hearts.
When every film school student stands here, he has imagined in his mind that one day he can bring back a golden trophy for his alma mater, making the entire alma mater proud of him.
"This is good! I think so too!"
Zhang Ruojun slapped his thigh and shouted excitedly.
“Okay, let’s take the best actor, one for each person!”
Zhou Yutang was also very excited. He slapped the table and opened his mouth.
“…”
Zhang Ruojun wiped sweat with Zhu Yilong.
Brother Tang, it’s almost done. You are the best at bragging.
Three movie stars in one bedroom?
You’ve ordered several dishes, but you’re not drunk yet?
Say nothing more.
Pour it full and start it.
Zhu Yilong got drunk after drinking, and now his face was red, but he was sober, and his eyes became clearer and brighter.
Zhang Ruojun only had three bottles of beer, and now he had already consumed three bottles. His consciousness was more or less blurred, and he kept mumbling:
"The biggest reward for me in going to college is getting to know you two buddies. How about we come to Taoyuan to have a threesome? Get a chicken and drink blood wine."
"."
Zhou Yutang followed Neither Zhu Yilong nor Zhu Yilong could stand it anymore.
This guy is not afraid of social death. Hurry up and pour Mr. Zhang a drink.
After drinking the wine, he actually calmed down and started to giggle: “I’ve really been in trouble recently.”
"???"
Zhou Yutang and Zhu Yilong looked at each other, each looking confused.
“Some people in the school are gossiping behind their backs, and I know it.”
“What gossip are you talking about again?”
“You said I entered the school through the back door, again. The second male lead who relies on connections has high ratings. Those people are more sour than eating lemons, haha.”
"You rely on your own strength."
Zhou Yutang patted Mr. Zhang on the shoulder and said seriously: "Don't care what others say, I can't do this without you."
" Take a long-term view and see what these are in a few years.”
Innate relationship is actually a kind of strength.
Many people may not realize it in college, but after a few years of being severely beaten by society, reality will teach them how to behave.
The happiest time to drink is when you're halfway through drinking. You're not drunk yet, the fun is with the wine and the brothers are with you.
"I know."
Zhang Ruojun put his arm around Zhou Yutang's shoulders, his drunken eyes half hazy and half blurry, and suddenly shouted in a high-pitched voice: "The labor and management just want them to know! What's wrong with the labor and management relying on relationships? ? What’s wrong with hugging my brother’s thigh? ?”
“Zhou Yutang is my brother, what’s wrong with me hugging my brother’s thigh?”
Zhou Yutang's face darkened.
This guy was really drunk. He sat crookedly and fell softly to the ground. Then he came over and hugged Zhou Yutang's thigh and refused to let go.
The most fearful thing is that the air suddenly becomes quiet.
Time seems to have been pressed on the stop button.
The guys at the tables next to me all had their chopsticks suspended in the air, their eyes fixed on this place with confusion mixed with shock.
Zhou Yutang quickly pulled Zhang Ruojun up, telling him that if he continued talking, he would die here collectively.
Zhang Ruojun also refused to accept everyone who came tonight. In the end, he simply held the bottle and put it in his mouth to show off his boldness, which was better than Qiao Feng of Juxian Village.
The good news is that Master Zhang behaved himself after drinking. The bad news is that he was really drunk.
According to his usual drinking capacity.
Three bottles of beer are almost enough to reach the kill line. I drank at least five bottles today to brave the end of the world, and I was completely offline.
OK.
Zhou Yutang paid the money, looked at Zhu Yilong, and the two of them dragged him back to school, one on the left and the other on the right.
The difference in drinking capacity is worse. Zhang Ruojun actually drinks really good wine. He doesn’t make a fuss when he is drunk. He just giggles like a quiet child, shouting that after finishing this glass, he wants two more glasses. .
Zhou Yutang shook his head. Even if he was drunk, at least he could let his adopted son vent his emotions without having to hold them in his heart.
Arrived at the dormitory.
He helped him to bed with difficulty.
Brother Long filled a basin of water, wiped his face with a wet towel, and covered him with a quilt. He also put a bottle of water beside him to prevent him from getting thirsty in the middle of the night.
I vaguely heard that the thin dog seemed to be burying his face in the quilt and choking secretly.
Zhou Yutang took a look and pulled Brother Long out.
Click.
The lighter's grinding wheel made a slight scraping sound, and the flame jumped.
The two of them held onto the balcony and each lit a cigarette. The cigarette butts were as bright as stars in the distant night sky.
The thin dog in the house hid itself under the quilt and howled like a lost dog:
"Mom, I miss you."
