Xu family.

Xu Damao had already washed his face. Apart from a little bruises at the corners of his mouth and a slightly swollen face, he didn't feel any discomfort.

At this time, he took Zhang Zhiqiang's hand and insisted on giving him fifty yuan.

"Qiangzi, take it. If it weren't for your money, I definitely wouldn't be able to get it."

Xu Damao stuffed the money into Zhang Zhiqiang's hand.

Lou Xiao'e stood by with a look of agreement on her face, and would chime in from time to time.

In her opinion, Zhang Zhiqiang should also take the money. When Zhang Zhiqiang was down and out in the past, it was understandable that he did not want the money when she gave it to him, but today's money was earned by Zhang Zhiqiang, so it was only right for him to take it.

"Brother Damao, I really can't take it. You're injured, so you can buy some supplements or something to replenish yourself."

Zhang Zhiqiang had no choice but to decline. He swears to God, although fifty yuan is a lot of money, he really didn't want it.

"No, you have to, take it quickly."

"I don't care about money. I don't need it. What I care about is face. You have earned enough face for me today. Just leave me a big unity commemoration."

Xu Damao continued to stuff money into Zhang Zhiqiang's arms with an extremely tough attitude.

"Brother Damao, you just like to joke around. I have money everywhere. I really can't take it. Take it back quickly."

Zhang Zhiqiang is very strong, so Xu Damao really can't get it through.

"Qiangzi, take it quickly. If you continue like this, I will be angry."

Xu Damao put on an angry look.

So Zhang Zhiqiang stopped refusing and watched Xu Damao put the money into his pocket.

"Brother Damao, this is inappropriate."

Zhang Zhiqiang said helplessly.

"What's inappropriate? Just take it, brothers. Qiangzi, remember to come to my house for a drink this afternoon."

Xu Damao saw Zhang Zhiqiang accept the money and said with a satisfied smile.

"Okay, then I'll go back first."

After saying this, Zhang Zhiqiang walked outside with a conflicted look on his face.

I thought I had gone too far, so I came over and beat up Sha Zhu, and took fifty yuan when I left.

But then I thought, if it weren't for me, Xu Damao would be in a much worse situation now, and he would even thank me.

"Thank you, Qiangzi."

Xu Damao waved his hands enthusiastically behind.

After hearing this, Zhang Zhiqiang nodded and said that the money should be taken.

…………

In the afternoon, there was no cooking at Zhang Zhiqiang's house. The whole family, including Ran's father and mother, went to Xu Damao's house. Xu Damao's house suddenly became much more lively.

Ran's mother was talking to Ran Qiuye and Lou Xiaoe, Zhang Zhiqiang and Xu Damao were busy cooking in the kitchen, and only Ran's father was sitting on a stool with a conflicted look on his face.

There were only women around Ran's mother, and he couldn't join in the conversation. Zhang Zhiqiang was cooking, which he didn't know how to cook, so Ran's father was left with nothing to do.

After staying for a while, Ran's father picked up Zhang Zhiqiang's cigarette box, lit a cigarette for himself and went out to smoke. Since Ran Qiuye became pregnant, smoking was not allowed at home, including Zhang Zhiqiang, who had to go outside to smoke.

More than an hour later, all the food was served on the table, and Xu Damao took out a bottle of white wine that looked very good at first glance.

"Qiangzi, uncle, this is something my father-in-law gave me. Let's make it today."

Xu Damao said proudly.

"What? You obviously took it secretly from my dad's warehouse."

Lou Xiao'e had a look of disgust on her face, she knew the truth of the matter.

"Haha, haha, it doesn't matter. My wife loves to joke."

Xu Damao looked embarrassed. He opened the bottle of wine and poured a glass for Zhang Zhiqiang and Ran's father.

"Qiangzi, I want to thank you for this first cup. Thank you for saving me today. But don't tell me, the stick joke is just cool."

"I took off his pants and spanked him. The kid cried miserably."

Xu Damao said happily that although being beaten was uncomfortable, it was satisfying to beat someone up, and he automatically ignored the idea of ​​bullying the weak.

"Oh? That's a shame I didn't see it."

Zhang Zhiqiang said this very politely, although he also really wanted to see Xu Damao's crazy jokes.

"Yeah, yeah, come on, drink."

The three of them were drinking enthusiastically, while Lou Xiao'e, Ran Qiuye and Ran's mother were chatting and laughing while eating.

It was Lou Xiao'e who kept praising Zhiqiang, always saying how good Zhang Zhiqiang was, which made Ran Qiuye feel a little strange.

Xu Damao couldn't drink much and he fell on the table after just a few drinks, which made Lou Xiao'e feel very embarrassed.

Zhang Zhiqiang and Ran's father continued to drink. The wine that Xu Damao took out was indeed good wine, and it would be a shame to waste it.

Later, when Ran's father died, Zhang Zhiqiang stopped drinking. It was boring to drink alone.

The next day.

Today is the second day of the Chinese New Year and Zhang Zhiqiang has nothing to do. He was planning to have a good rest at home, but his apprentice Li Lixin came in the afternoon.

"Master, I'm here, open the door for me."

Li Lixin shouted at Zhang Zhiqiang's door.

Zhang Zhiqiang heard the sound and opened the door, and found that not only Li Lixin, Li Lixin's parents, but also Director Li and his wife and son were there. It could be said that everyone except Li Lixin's grandparents was there.

"Hey, Brother Tiehua, Brother Li, you're all here? Come in quickly, come in."

Zhang Zhiqiang hurried inside to greet people, and Ran Qiuye followed out after hearing the noise.

"Master's wife, don't come out when you are pregnant. Be careful not to catch a cold. Go in quickly."

When Li Lixin saw Ran Qiuye, he immediately said that he liked this master's wife very much and thought that he must find a woman as beautiful as her to be his wife in the future.

"Qiangzi, this is something for you."

Li Tiehua and Director Li handed the things to Zhang Zhiqiang.

"Come on, what are you bringing?"

Zhang Zhiqiang took the things. They were not very cheap and included cigarettes, alcohol, and meat.

"Haha, you are Li Xin's master, it's only natural."

Li Tiehua said with a smile.

A large group of people entered Zhang Zhiqiang's house, and it suddenly became crowded.

"Qiangzi, you have done a great job on this house. It makes me want to tidy up my own house too."

Li Tiehua looked at Zhang Zhiqiang's house in amazement and had some ideas in his mind.

“I want to renovate my house, too.”

Director Li also said that Zhang Zhiqiang's home is not only beautifully decorated, but also has extraordinary furniture, including a sofa.

"This is the sofa. I heard that the director of the main factory has one. He sleeps on it every day and seems to be very comfortable."

Director Li said this and sat down.

"Hey, you know what, this sofa is really comfortable. No wonder the director of the general factory sleeps on it every day."

Director Li felt something different as soon as he sat on it. It was incredibly soft and very comfortable.

"Really? Let me try it, too."

Li Tiehua pulled Director Li up and sat on it himself. Then everyone took turns to experience it and praised the sofa as a great invention.

Li Tiehua is quite old, after all, his son is already that old. Fortunately, he has Ran's father as well. Both of them are patriots, so they have a lot of topics to talk about.

Li's two daughters-in-law and Ran's mother were cooking and preparing to have dinner at home in the afternoon.

Li Lixin kept pestering Zhang Zhiqiang, insisting that he check whether he had made any progress recently, which made Zhang Zhiqiang very annoyed.

It stands to reason that it is a good thing for an apprentice to be close to his master, as it represents a good relationship between the master and the apprentice. However, Li Lixin was so enthusiastic that Zhang Zhiqiang was a little overwhelmed.
