Sword Three: Broken halberd and sinking into the sand

Fang Ding contacted other partners, and everyone decided to make an appointment to get the delisting done.Wen Chen said that he doesn't have to take the money that has been taken away, and treat it as the price to pay for his stupidity, but he must not let Ou Rui cheat him out of any more money.In order to be on the safe side, Lin Weishun brought in the buddy who planned to make a partnership agreement.That buddy said that it is a bit late to sign the delisting resolution, but the terms that can delist Ou Rui are not only the one mentioned by Fang Ding, the partnership law also stipulates several situations that can be delisted, and one of them is "due to intentional or gross negligence. partnership losses”.Ou Rui took away the partnership funds privately, and smashed the store, redecorating is a loss, being unable to operate for several days is also a loss, and the goods are damaged is a loss, so as long as all the partners at the time agree Agree, and then hand over the delisting resolution to him, and he can be delisted.In other words, as long as Fang Ding, Lin Weishun, and Wen Chen agree, he can be kicked out.

Fang Ding and others happily signed the delisting resolution, but who will send it to Ou Rui?Fang Ding thought that Wen Chen must not be able to do it. If he went by himself, he might have a fight with him. Lin Weishun had never seen him a few times, and he was worried. Gu Feng took away the resolution of delisting, "I'll go .”

"Are you going?" Fang Ding shook his head, "Well, he probably doesn't know that you are also a partner, and you are his teacher, so don't cause any trouble for you."

Wen Chen took the expulsion decision from Gu Feng's hand, looked at Fang Ding and said, "I'll go."

Gu Feng frowned and said, "Why are you going? You haven't been bullied enough. Send it to your door to be bullied?"

Wen Chen's face darkened, he turned his head to look at Gu Feng and said, "I've never been the one to be bullied. In the past, he just relied on me to like him. I don't like him now. It doesn't matter whether he lives or dies."

Fang Ding was dumbfounded for a moment, in his impression Wen Chen didn't say he was easy to bully, but he was always just like his name, tepid, never seen him so fierce.But actually thinking about it carefully, when he and Ou Rui had a showdown, it was impossible for Ou Rui to smash all those things in the store by himself, so it can be seen that this is not a master who can be manipulated by others.

Gu Feng turned his head to the side and stopped looking at Wen Chen. Wen Chen smiled bitterly and looked at Fang Ding, "Don't worry, I actually know where he is, and I promise to deliver it to him."

Among the few people, Qin Mo left first, because he was the only one who had to go to work in the afternoon. Before leaving, he handed Fang Ding the shopping list, and asked him to stop by the supermarket to buy it, and cook and eat at night.The last one to leave was Gu Feng, and Fang Ding felt a pain in his head when he saw him hesitating to speak, "You're such a big man, don't you worry if you have hair?"

"Did I say I'm worried?"

"Don't worry, who are you showing your embarrassment to?" Fang Ding said unbearably, "I usually see that you have a good temper, why can't you even stand a word."

"He didn't let go of that scum in his heart at all," Gu Feng said, "Yesterday I saw him still packing up the things Ou Rui gave him."

"How do you know that Ori gave it to him?"

"He is reluctant to use it, even reluctant to throw away the card, with a signature on it," Gu Feng said, "If you ask him to send the resolution of delisting, that is the rhythm of a sheep entering a tiger's mouth!"

"How do you know that he didn't pack up his things and throw them away?" Fang Ding asked, "I don't think Wen Chen is what you said."

"Are you familiar with him?" Gu Feng said, "Will he tell you when he drank and cried alone at Christmas?"

Fang Ding was stunned, "Why don't you go and have a look."

"Follow me," Gu Feng said, "He's long gone, even if he can keep up, if he finds out, he'll turn his back on him immediately."

The two stayed anxiously all afternoon. Fang Ding was absent-minded when he was shopping in the supermarket. It was not until evening that Gu Feng called and said that he had returned and that the resolution to expel him had been delivered. When he came back, Wen Chen's face was colored again.Fang Ding wanted to go and have a look, but was stopped by Gu Feng, who said to stay where it was cool.So Fang Ding never had a chance to know how Wen Chen got the money back.Although I asked insincerely later, Wen Chen didn't say anything, neither did Gu Feng.

Seeing that the Spring Festival is getting closer, Fang Ding's heart is gradually becoming unhappy.Every Chinese New Year, for him, the torment is greater than the joy.Lin Weishun flew home the next day after signing the delisting resolution. Wen Chen didn't want to go home for the New Year, but couldn't stand Gu Feng's constant thoughts, so he went home too. Two days later, Gu Feng also left Yes, before leaving, I told Fang Ding to go to the garage to help him run the car when he has time.Qin Mo was the last to leave, but he was going to the farthest place - the United States.Qin Mo said that he had an aunt who opened a restaurant in San Francisco's Chinatown. This year, he sent an invitation letter to his parents, inviting their family to the United States for the Spring Festival.

Fang Ding's saliva was about to drool with envy, Qin Mo asked, "Where are you celebrating the New Year?"

"I go to my mother's place," Fang Ding said with a smile, "I go to her place every year."

Qin Mo nodded, "Is there anything you want to bring when I go to America?"

Fang Ding thought for a while and said, "Go to the United States to see what snacks are delicious, bring me some for me, and I will study it!"

Qin Mo smiled and said yes, Fang Ding watched him get on the airport bus, sat by the window and waved to him, then gradually moved away, and finally disappeared.Fang Ding put away his smile and looked at the bustling crowd on the street. He didn't like Chinese New Year, not at all.

On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, Fang Ding bought a lot of things, for others and for himself.When I was young, I always bought new clothes to wear during Chinese New Year.Although the family has broken up later, Fang Ding still keeps this habit.He bought a set for himself from the inside out, and then bought a lot of nutritional supplements in large and small packages.

Fang Ding feels that he has a tendency to self-abuse. His parents have been divorced for several years, but he still buys a lot of things to see them every New Year. His father Fang Zhenyu remarried a year after the divorce. Liu Yun, who lived with Fang Zhenyu, later had another child.His mother, Zeng Yu, remarried last year to a widowed man named Chen Jingyuan, with a daughter who was in junior high school.Although Fang Ding had to spare himself every time he went, he couldn't help but go, as if in this way, he could keep in touch with them and make them miss him.

On New Year's Eve, Fang Ding got up early, tidied himself up, called Fang Zhenyu and Zeng Yu in advance, made sure everyone was at home, and made appointments in the morning and afternoon respectively.Fang Ding went to Fang Zhenyu's place first. Liu Yun has been busy taking care of the children for the past two years, and has no extra energy to dress herself up. At first glance, she seems to be several years old. Fang Ding pointed to the milk powder in the bag and said, "This is for my brother. Yes, I saw that you bought this brand when I came last time, so I bought it accordingly."

"Oh, old Fang, look how careful Fang Ding is." Liu Yun took the bag with a smile and said, "Thank you, there is not much milk powder left, and I planned to buy it after the Chinese New Year."

Liu Yun exchanged pleasantries with Fang Ding and went into the house to take care of the children. Fang Ding told Fang Zhenyu about his snack shop business in the living room. Fang Zhenyu heard that they already had two stores and were about to open a third one. Time is also very happy.Fang Ding sat for a while, and when it was nearly ten o'clock, he shirked that he still wanted to go to Zeng Yu's place, got up and left.

After going out, Fang Ding took a taxi back home, fiddled with something to eat, took a nap, and got up around two o'clock.Packing himself up neatly, he went out again with his big and small bags.The destination this time was Zeng Yu's house. Fang Ding stood in front of the door and sat down for mental training, took a long breath, and knocked on the door a few times.I heard Zeng Yu say inside, "Fang Ding must be here, open the door."

It was Chen Jingyuan who opened the door, Fang Ding smiled and said "Hi Uncle", Chen Jingyuan welcomed him in with a smile and said, "Your mother has been waiting for you for a long time?"

Fang Ding changed his shoes at the door, Zeng Yu stood aside and looked at him, "Did you lose weight, didn't you eat well, did you always buy outside, that won't work."

"No, I often eat at home these days," Fang Ding said, handing the things to Chen Jingyuan, "I bought some deer antler and red ginseng, you can eat some if you have nothing to do, it nourishes qi and blood, especially let my mother eat some. "

"Well, don't worry, I'll remind her," Chen Jingyuan said, "Sit down and warm up, it's cold outside, you two chat first, I'll go to the kitchen to get busy."

Fang Ding took off his coat and sat on the sofa, Zeng Yu stroked his hair, "Go to your father's place?"

"Well, it was in the morning," Fang Ding said, "I saw that he was very busy there, so he sat for a while and left."

"I've been to your snack shop a few times," Zeng Yu said, "you're not here, how is the business?"

"Very good, now we have a branch and are planning to open a second one," Fang Ding said with a smile.

"Isn't that tiring?" Zeng Yu said worriedly, "How busy are the three places together? No wonder you are so thin."

"I'm not alone in this business, we have five partners." Fang Ding thought for a while, and brought out Gu Feng's words, "Besides, if we are too busy, we will hire a few more people. Well, you can't let your own people torment you."

"Yes, yes." Zeng Yu glanced at the kitchen and asked Fang Ding in a low voice, "Are you alone now?"

"Well," Fang Ding said, "don't worry, I didn't mess around."

"You can't see people well," Zeng Yu said, "I said last time that it looks unreliable. You have to believe it, but you take a look and I tell you, you are so stupid..."

"Mom," Fang Ding looked at her unbearably, "I'm not stupid. I can tell who is good to me and who is not good to me. When I meet a good one, I will bring it to you."

"Well," Zeng Yu agreed sullenly, "I always think, if your dad and I were not so busy when you were young and spent more time with you, you wouldn't like men."

"It has nothing to do with those," Fang Ding said, "Don't think about it, by the way, why isn't my sister at home?"

"I haven't come back yet to make up classes during the holidays," Zeng Yu said.

"Are you still making up lessons on New Year's Eve?" Fang Ding said with a look of horror, "They don't pass the New Year, and neither does the teacher?"

"I'll be back at five or six o'clock," Zeng Yu said, "it won't delay the Chinese New Year."

Fang Ding sat for a while, and then said that he was going to have dinner with his friends and left. Although Zeng Yu also invited him to eat, he didn't want to see their family enjoying themselves.Fang Ding stood on the street and didn't get a taxi for half a day, and many taxi drivers quit work early.Fang Ding walked slowly in the direction of going back. The hot air he exhaled condensed into ice on the outside of the scarf. Slowly, the upper and lower eyelashes were a little frozen, and it was a bit difficult to open them every time he blinked.Fang Ding wants to go home and eat hot pot, it is warm anyway, and cook ten or eight dumplings at midnight, and this year will be over.

Fang Ding recalled that on New Year's Day, he and Qin Mowo were watching the New Year's Eve party at home, yawning to welcome the zero o'clock.Qin Mo should be in San Francisco's Chinatown right now, preparing for the New Year with his family. Fang Ding thought, I really want to call him, and listen to his voice, but I can't get through. .

Fang Ding didn't know how far he had traveled, anyway, his hands and feet were numb from the cold when he got to the taxi.The driver said that this was the last order, and he went home after finishing the order. The house was ready, and he urged him several times.

"There must be a lot of delicious food," Fang Ding asked with a smile.

"Actually, there's nothing delicious," the driver said. "It's not like before. You have to wait until the Chinese New Year to eat a good one. Now you want to eat, and you can eat it any day. The Chinese New Year is just for reunion."

"Yeah," Fang Ding said, looking down at his hands that were already numb from the cold, and didn't speak any more.

The first thing Fang Ding did when he got home was to turn on the TV in the living room, and then he changed his clothes and went to the kitchen to choose dishes.He bought a lot of vegetables, but he was the only one to eat.Like Qin Mo, he only washed a little of each dish, and stuffed the rest into the refrigerator.

Fang Ding put the hot pot on the coffee table, turned on the beer again, and ate while watching TV. There was a lot of noise on the TV, as if he was not alone anymore.After eating, several plates, bowls, and cans were piled up on the table. Fang Ding didn't bother to tidy up. He just lay on the sofa and watched the Spring Festival Gala in silence. As a result, he became sleepy after watching it. Fang Ding seemed to be dreaming that Fang Zhenyu was carrying He set off firecrackers. At that time, Fang Zhenyu was still very young. As soon as the firecrackers were lit, he covered his ears, but the roar of the firecrackers continued, and kept ringing. ring.The moment Fang Ding saw the screen, he was stunned. It was an unfamiliar number, and the phone prompted that the number belonged to the United States...
