The puppets' stage play

"Uncle, you are here"

Wu Sheng looked at Song Sheng, with a smile on his dark face and gentle eyes.

"Xiaosheng, where is your father?" Song Sheng asked kindly.

"Xiao De, please wait here, Xiao Sheng, please keep an eye on it."

Qi Xiu gave some instructions, told Wu Sheng to take care of him, and then walked behind the curtain behind the curtain.

"Where did Mr. Wu Dafu die?"

You can still hear him yelling and a certain man yelling and cursing.

There weren't many people at this stall, so everyone didn't pay much attention and just ate their own noodles.

The two were silent for a moment, Wu Sheng looked a little cold, glanced at him, and silently waved to him to sit down first.

Qi Xiu was complacent, smiled easily, and sat down at a polished table.

Wu Sheng turned around and left, heading to the small door on the right.

That was probably the kitchen, where you could hear the sound of cooking and the smell of food coming in waves.

"Even if technology is advanced, it has not given up on the original artificial food..."

Qi Xiu muttered to himself, quietly looking sideways at the people eating around him.

There are two tables to the left.

The man with a resolute face was eating noodles with an moved expression. He had a strong body, and the exquisite shirt that highlighted his temperament was held up by the man's swollen muscles. He was wearing a black coat and the sleeves were tied around his waist.

Not far away from him, a man wearing golden glasses was eating slowly. His expression was plain and his clothes were neat, giving people a meticulous look. Occasionally, he looked at the rugged man, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

Qi Xiu noticed a certain line of sight at this time and looked at it from the corner of his eye.

An old man with white hair on the right, wearing a plaid shirt, was staring at him with scrutiny and suspicion in his eyes. Qi Xiu looked back calmly.

The old man's expression remained unchanged, he glanced at him up and down, then lowered his head and ate the noodles silently.

Qi Xiu was suspicious in his heart but did not show it on his face.

Bang, a bowl of noodles was placed in front of him. Wu Sheng stood aside and looked at him, while Qi Xiu ignored him.

This bowl of noodles is bright in color, fragrant and steaming hot.

He moved his nose, pretending to enjoy it, picked up the chopsticks next to him, and started eating.

After a while, Wu Sheng made no movement.

He looked up and saw Wu Sheng looking at him with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Uncle Song is very determined to give you a place..."

"....Tell me, what are you doing to make Uncle Song help you like this? You may not know that my family and Uncle Song are family friends. What are your intentions!!"

"What are you planning to deceive Uncle Song!" Wu Sheng's tone was low and a little angry.

Qi Xiu looked deeply at the other person, smiled with a smile, and did not answer the other person.

Wu Sheng calmed down instead. He exhaled deeply, closed his eyes, and seemed to be murmuring or warning again.

"Don't let me catch you." The voice was firm.

Wu Sheng opened his eyes and greeted Qi Xiu with a warm smile on his face, but his eyes still looked cold and his heart was still a little uneasy.

Qi Xiu was eating noodles by himself, and Wu Sheng's peaceful voice kept coming, as if the previous thing didn't exist.

"Uncle Song and my father grew up in the same yard. I heard that Uncle Song had been clever since he was a child. According to my father, he was their leader at that time. He climbed trees to dig out bird eggs, went into the water to catch fish, and threw cannons into the yard. He was A bunch of naughty kids that everyone hates."

"So they have had a very good relationship since they were young, and they have supported them all the way through the disaster that year, until now..."

"..."

Wu Sheng kept talking, somewhat envious of their feelings in his words.

Qi Xiu listened quietly, but asked in his heart, is this really so? He did not argue, noticing a fact.

The three people looked at each other with smiles on their faces after eating the noodles. They looked at each other and walked to the place where Song Sheng had gone before in a tacit understanding. Qi Xiu had some guesses in his mind.

Wu Sheng smiled and pointed at their departing figures in a low voice: "They are the Uncle Yang, Uncle Ling, and Grandpa Tang I told you..."

Qi Xiu looked at the departing figures, his heart moved, and he secretly gave instructions to a certain servant.

The three of them walked into the back room side by side, and the atmosphere in the room was somewhat solid at this time.

A thin, middle-aged man stood in front of Song Sheng, his eyes widened and his index finger raised to point at him.

Song Sheng's previously warm face was now covered with dark clouds, and he was frowning, feeling somewhat angry.

The strong middle-aged man quickly pulled away from the thin middle-aged man and pressed down the other person's hand, his voice a little suppressed.

"What are you doing! What are you doing! Why are you still gesticulating?"

"Yang Shen, ask him, does he still dare to question my decision? That's all I'm going to say today. I must leave one of this quota for that child. I have made up my mind on this matter, and no one can change it. !”

Song Sheng shouted angrily, and the skinny man's originally red face turned a little pale, and his eyes suddenly turned red.

"Don't you care about Wu Sheng's child? That child has respected you since childhood. He does this and that all day long. Now you are just doing this for a relative who came out of nowhere, so you don't care about that child!"

"I said before that the quota must be reserved for junior students, but now it's just bullshit?!"

"Okay! Okay! Boss Song, our friendship for so many years has been wiped out. I, Wu Dafu, can't compete with someone like you!"

Wu Dafu also retorted with great indignation. Yang Shen looked at this scene with some tangles in his heart. He looked helplessly at the man with gold-rimmed glasses and the gray old man.

The grizzled old man watched this scene with a cold expression and sat on the slanted sofa next to him without saying a word. At this time, he raised his head and looked at the other man.

The man stood with his arms crossed. When he saw Yang Shen's look for help and the old man's gesture, he pushed the frame of the mirror with his finger and looked at Song Sheng.

"... Regardless of whether the so-called relative is true or false, Song Sheng, let me ask you, how is the other person's academic talent?"

As soon as these words came out, Yang Shen, the old man, and the man all stared at Song Sheng. It was obvious that this issue was extremely important.

Song Sheng originally wanted to refute the other party, but when he saw the attention of the three people, he thought of their years of friendship and the hidden guilt in his heart.

"...I think it is a rough jade that has not yet been polished, comparable to the famous genius of Li Cheng Church!"

"...Really? I will personally confirm it. If he really has this talent, I will definitely support him. On the contrary, if his performance is mediocre...then you have to give us an explanation for Dafu!"

"Lingsheng, Uncle Tang, I understand, Xiaode will not let you down!"

Ling Sheng nodded with satisfaction.

Uncle Tang raised his eyes and looked at Wu Dafu, who had already calmed down a bit. His tone was calm and left no room for doubt: "Then this matter ends here. Don't be willful, Dafu, we will give you adequate compensation."

Wu Dafu felt a little chill in his heart. This was the friendship that had existed for many years. They were usually brothers and sisters, but now they were throwing it away for the sake of greater interests. His mood was a little low, so he admitted it with a reluctant smile.

I knew in my heart that this was because I had the lowest status among several people, so I was like this. I felt like crying and had to hold it back.

Yang Shen patted his shoulder considerately to express comfort.

Uncle Tang looked at Song Sheng again: "The future of winning this person is unclear, Xiao Sheng, you have to make plans early, otherwise we will work together to introduce you to a real mentor-level figure. After all, you are also the smartest among us. You will definitely be valued by the other party.”

Ling Sheng looked at Song Sheng, thought of the other party's plight, felt sorry for him, and subconsciously complained.

"I have long said that winning this person is an outsider. It would be better to directly choose Teacher Kang at that time. Although it must be more stringent, but..."

"Needless to mention, without the reputation we won back then, we wouldn't have been able to grow to where we are today."

"Even if I win, if Uncle Tang hadn't spoken, he might not have paid attention to me."

Song Sheng's rational persuasion calmed Ling Sheng's anxious brain, and Yang Shen nodded in agreement.

"...In short, the most important thing today is to keep our gains, otherwise our status will collapse instantly. Although we have our own support behind us, without support from the mentor level, the other party will not value it."

"The congressman on my side is already dissatisfied. He thinks that Bo De has harmed his interests. Damn it. In the past, most of my funds were given to him, but now Bo De has lost his status a little bit!"

"My business here has been in trouble recently. Suppliers refuse to supply goods. Officials have been ruthlessly blocking me and reviewing my operating qualifications."

"I tried my best to save him in exchange for this position. I originally thought that he would help me handle my pension due to my years of dedicated service, but I didn't expect that he wanted me to go out directly! Me!"

The three of them sighed and looked at Wu Dafu.

"....It's the same on my side. The person behind the scenes said that he won't cooperate with me after these few orders. He's afraid that I'll be caught and implicate him."

Several people looked at each other, a little helpless.

Song Sheng held his head high, convinced in his heart that Du De was their savior. He was extremely convinced. Finally, they had another exchange and exchanged opinions with each other.

Wu Dafu, who looked a little depressed, was a little taciturn, and the others ignored him.

In the corner, a pair of eyes saw everything from beginning to end.
