General Xu Shiyou visited Qingdao in August 1952.
Xu Shiyou once missed his old comrades-in-arms, so he asked the chief of the management section to arrange a good restaurant and invite them to dinner. However, when he arrived at the hotel, he learned that the three generals could not come due to temporary affairs, but *** invited them.
Xu Shiyou was surprised and hurriedly wanted to leave, until the head of the management section told him that it was carefully planned by them, and he was not at ease.
It is said that the three generals refused Xu Shiyou's banquet not because of a temporary matter, but because they were unwilling to attend the appointment. One of them said: "I don't like to eat with Xu Shiyou. ”
Another person also politely declined his invitation. So, why are they reluctant to share a good meal with Xu Shiyou? It is rumored that Xu Shiyou is a drinking enthusiast, and he usually likes to drink two glasses of wine when he eats.
He has a large number of them, and is known as "a thousand cups are not drunk". However, Xu Shiyou not only likes to drink, but is also willing to persuade him to drink at the wine table. Once he has had a few drinks, he will start replacing the wine glass with a large bowl.
If someone violates the rules of the drinking table, they must also be punished, even if they find a temporary person to supervise the drinking, they must obey. If you have a strong drinking ability, you can still cope with a few drinks, but for people who are not good at drinking, they often fall into embarrassment.
This may also be the reason why the three generals are reluctant to attend the banquet.
Xu Shiyou is a stubborn person and is not easy to refuse. In order to solve this problem, the head of the management section thought about it for a while and decided to invite *** to accompany him for a drink. Hearing the news, Xu Shiyou immediately asked the secretary to prepare the car and prepare to leave.
Why did Xu Shiyou hear that *** was coming, so he hurriedly wanted to leave? It turned out that ** was his most feared drinking friend. Once, Xu Shiyou came to Beijing for a meeting and set up a banquet to entertain him.
At the dinner table, Xu Shiyou's alcohol addiction attacked, and he yelled to drink in a big bowl. **I have long heard that Xu Shiyou has a lot of rules for drinking, so I want to take this opportunity to educate him.
** Asked: "Is Commander Xu's alcohol consumption really good?" As soon as this sentence came out, Xu Shiyou immediately refreshed: "I haven't met an opponent when I drink." ”
** then proposed: "Then let's try to drink the bar." ”
Commander Xu, get up and continue to drink, if you don't drink this glass of wine, it will be too unrighteous. It's all Xu Shiyou's language of persuading wine at the wine table. From then on, Xu Shiyou no longer advised and punished alcohol at the wine table, but he no longer dared to drink with ***.
As long as *** is drinking somewhere, he will definitely stay away. So, did the head of the management section really invite *** this time? Apparently not!
The chief of the management section skillfully resolved the contradiction between the three generals not coming to the banquet and not offending Xu Shiyou, and took advantage of Xu Shiyou's weakness that he was afraid of drinking with ***, and told a lie that "** is coming".
