Return To 1977 Chapter 206: Talking the truth after drinking

lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!

Speaking the truth after drinking is by no means empty talk.

When a man drinks and gets drunk, he talks more closely and has the urge to express himself. No matter how cautious a person is, drinking wine will somewhat reduce their worries and reveal a truer temperament.

So in the middle of drinking, when the bottle of Maotai bottomed out, Yang Weifan didn't hesitate and came directly to Hong Yanwu.

"Brother, you are a bit unrealistic."

Hong Yanwu was stunned. "How to say?"

“You don’t consider me a friend!”

Yang Weifan grinned dissatisfiedly and began to look at him.

"Look, these Bincheng buddies are all chatting so enthusiastically with me. But you, a well-spoken fellow, are lukewarm. I'm not a fool, can't I see that you are annoying me? You Just say, what I said is right!”

This sentence immediately made Hong Yanwu embarrassed, and the rest of the people also opened their mouths, a little caught off guard.

The "general" was the first to react and immediately smoothed things over for Hong Yanwu.

"No, no. The key is that we were fascinated by what you said..."

But he didn't expect that Hong Yanwu no longer wanted to hide it, and actually revealed his true feelings to Yang Weifan.

"I can see that you are a person of good temperament and a very interesting person. But some things are not that simple. We have different identities, so we cannot be friends by nature. I will not hide it from you, even if I don't want to get involved with someone like you. Your circle of friends must be fixed, right? To put it bluntly, if we meet in the capital, let's not talk about drinking together. Who will give it to the other? It’s spent..."

Yang Weifan was obviously a little surprised by this, his expression quickly became serious, and he took a good look at Hong Yanwu.

Then he looked at Chen Liquan next to him and found that he also had a cold expression.

Then he said, "No wonder, why are you so 'rude' in the department store? I am also the master of 'playing' on the street! But what you are talking about is also a thing of the past. Not long ago Is it necessary to make the distinction so clearly?"

The so-called "merging of soldiers and bandits" refers to the fact that in Beijing society since 1969, the "veterans" whose parents were beaten down and the "ruffians" in society began to use, penetrate and reorganize each other.

In addition to beating, smashing, robbing, and ransacking their homes, the veterans also "washed the Buddha" and "robbed the circle." "Po", "beating, smashing, and robbing".

This is the degenerate combination of the "academy" and the "player".

But Hong Yanwu had another opinion on this. He gritted his teeth and spoke word by word. "'Meeting of soldiers and bandits'? That means they are in harmony on the surface, but not in heart! Based on my experience, dealing with you people is very tiring, and I always have to be on guard. You are all too smart..."

The "general" saw that something was getting more and more wrong as he talked, so he couldn't help but intervene to dissuade him.

"Wait a minute, Xiao Wu, you were fine, but we can't understand why you are talking about these nonsense. Why are you going to fight? Have you forgotten how..."

"I didn't forget!"

Hong Yanwu interrupted the "general" categorically, turned to Yang Weifan and said, "I am not a ungrateful person, nor am I a person who does not repay kindness. I am really grateful that you have helped us so much. Even though We will never be friends, and I will never treat you as an enemy. I will definitely return this favor if I have the chance. But let’s make it clear in advance that it must be within our capabilities, okay?”

When Yang Weifan heard this, he had no other reaction. He drank half of the wine in the jar with a "gu dong dong" sound.

This made "General" and "Zi Zhi" feel nervous. Needless to say, they were all afraid that Yang Weifan would fall out later.

Chen Liquan must be facing Hong Yanwu unconditionally, and his eyes are eager and alert.

In fact, even Hong Yanwu thought Yang Weifan might be about to curse. But he never expected that Yang Weifan would say something that he didn't expect at all.

"I understand, buddy! You probably have all the losses you have suffered in the past, and you have all the grudges in your heart. But there is one thing I want to ask. You distanced yourself from me because you knew I was a member of the 'academy faction'! But if you are wrong, what should you say? Then wouldn’t I be wronged?”

"Impossible!" Hong Yanwu blurted out.

"Hey, don't talk too much!"

Yes, it is a problem only for stupid children to view problems in absolute terms. It is indeed a bit too early to make such an assertion. Is there anything strange happening in this world? Nothing is ever impossible!

Hong Yanwu understood this. His eyes quickly calmed down, his brows tightened, and he stopped talking.

Yang Weifan continued talking on his own.

"Speaking of my father, he was a soldier who participated in the revolution in 1929. He was transferred to the navy in 1954 and should be considered a senior official. Therefore, judging from my background, I should be considered a standard cadre's son. But it happened In fact, it is another matter. Not to mention that I grew up in an alley, and after middle school, I often fought with the children in the alley against the "yuan faction". To be honest, even I couldn't tell the difference. Find out which group I should be in charge of..."

"How could it be?" This time it was Chen Liquan's turn to express his doubts.

"Why not? My father's first wife died before liberation, and he married my mother after the founding of the People's Republic of China. At that time, he already had five children. In the eyes of my brothers and sisters, my My mother shouldn't have entered this house at all. Because the family had never been quiet, after my mother had me, my father placed me and my mother alone in a courtyard in Xicheng District. This has been the case since I was a child. Those who live in the alley have never been to the Navy Yard."

"Ever since I have memories, I have always felt that my father was very busy with work and did not show up much at all. My mother worked in a cultural troupe and always accompanied my father on business trips and attended various conferences and activities. Therefore, they rarely Being with me is actually like being brought up by my nanny.”

"My nanny is a native of Beijing. Her husband's surname is Feng. She lives in Xisi. She has been coming to my house to help since she was less than fifty years old. I call her Grandma Feng. She became disabled because her son had a car accident. , she just came out to be a nanny. She also has a little granddaughter named Feng Juan, who is about the same age as me. Because my daughter-in-law has to go to work and is too busy taking care of her son, she often brings her over to play with me. , even if Grandma Feng comes home, I will follow her. To be honest, their family is more like my relatives to me than my parents."

"Then during the 'movement' period, my father was among the first to be overthrown. My mother, like him, was placed under guard and both homes were raided. I became homeless. My brothers and sisters were too busy taking care of themselves. Grandma Feng, who was already sixty at the time, took me home when she saw that I had nowhere to go. Their family treated me even better than that little sister. , I am no different from the kids in the alley.”

"You should know. There are quite a lot of courtyards in the west of the city. In addition to the 'officially named' 'Air Force Courtyard', 'Navy Courtyard', and 'Planning Commission Courtyard', there are also state (official) courtyards. ), the Ministry of Railways, the Second Artillery Group, the Broadcasting Bureau (Ministry of Radio, Film and Television), the North China Bureau, the Construction Bureau, the Planning Commission, the Construction Committee, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Light Industry, the Ministry of Construction and other various ministries and commissions dormitories. Therefore, the children in the west alleys. Fighting with the children in these compounds is a common occurrence."

"Not to mention that there are a lot of bad guys in the compound. Those guys are a lot of tricksters, and they are always looking for 'girlfriends' when they have nothing to do. In addition, Feng Juan is quite beautiful, so it is easier to attract trouble. So. In order to protect this sister, I naturally picked up the kitchen knife."

"What you said is absolutely right. Most of the children in the alley are quite upright and don't have so many twists and turns in their stomachs. As long as they fight with the 'yuan faction', share the same hatred and openness to the outside world, many people will spontaneously help . So not only did I not suffer any loss, but I also made a lot of friends. After going back and forth, I officially became a member of the "players" who competed with the "yuan faction", and with those buddies in the alley, Instead, it became iron..."

At this point, everyone in the audience looked at each other. Yang Weifan's experience must be logically credible, but it is also unusual enough. To make a true distinction, whether he is an 'academy' or a 'player', then no one can do it.

Hong Yanwu couldn't help but said angrily, "Then you...you are the company commander now. Your father has been reinstated, right? Do you still associate with those children in the alley?"

These words made Yang Weifan smile bitterly.

"You actually want to say, 'A wife is easy to get rich, and a friend is easy to get rich'? You mention this matter, which makes me even more awkward. Yes, after September 13, my father became the first wave The cadres who have returned have resumed their work. Then our family has regained its former glory. Originally, I wanted to go to the countryside to join the team, but now I have gone through this twists and turns. The conflict also eased a lot. My mother took me back to the courtyard from Grandma Feng’s house.”

"But after that, everything changed. I don't know why, except for Grandma Feng, the Feng family immediately became interested in me. When I went to see them again, I was only polite to them, but not close to them. I treat her like a big shot, even my sister Feng Juan."

"Not to mention my friends from the past. Most of them became very indifferent when they saw me and stayed away from me. A small number of people tried their best to fawn over me and asked me to help them stay in the city and join the army. Some of them got it done for them. Then, they asked me to do other things, and some of them didn't work out, and they complained behind my back. In the end, I couldn't handle it, so I had to find excuses to deal with it. In fact, I had a lot of trouble with my family because of it. I worked hard behind the scenes, but in the end I ended up being a different person.”

"As for the children in the compound, I got to know a lot of them later. But first of all, the environment in which I grew up was completely different from what they grew up in. What they played, watched, were passionate about, and admired, I can't find anything in common with them. Secondly, they like each other very much. The relationship between them is determined by their father's position. , We are brothers, but I also know that few people are sincere..."

Hearing this, Hong Yanwu and the others couldn't help but look at each other, and everyone sighed with mixed feelings.
