"The only way to relieve your worries is Du Kang."
Ask what can dissolve the sorrows of the world, and there is only good wine.
Between the strokes of Cao Cao's pen and ink in the Three Kingdoms period, there is this ancient poem that has been passed down to this day.
China's wine culture can be described as a long history, according to legend, Du Kangshan brewed wine during the Xia Dynasty, and only later generations respected him as the god of wine.
So far, China's liquor culture can be described as diverse.
However, there are essences but also dross, and modern young people are particularly disgusted by the wine table culture.
There were also masters in the liquor industry, and that deed can be described as appalling.
There were two "masters" at that time: one was a man named "Zhang Zheng", who once threatened to "drink" 8 people at the wine table; the other was a person named "Zhang Rui", who in order to quit his addiction to alcohol, actually let his mother lock himself with chains and did not allow himself to have the opportunity to reach out and touch the wine.
Zhang Zheng first came into contact with baijiu when he was 15 years old, when there were many guests at home. His father arranged a liquor bureau to provide a few bottles of liquor for the stomach, and his consciousness had begun to dissipate, and he could not stand it.
At that time, Zhang Zheng was bold and curious, and suddenly took his father's wine glass and drank it all. The pungency instantly invaded his throat, but he couldn't bear it.
"You child, it's really powerful, such a high degree can also drink, can be, have such a guts, will drink in the future will definitely be very outstanding!" 」
As soon as the uncles saw Zhang Zheng's posture, a glass of spirits did not hesitate to get off his stomach and praised his courage. Such praise also made Zhang Zheng's father feel that his face was shining, and it was at this opportunity that his father began to take him to various liquor stores.
Since the first time he drank alcohol when he was 15 years old, in just a few years, Zhang Zheng's alcohol consumption was exercised, and alcohol addiction also followed, and it was uncomfortable not to drink for a day.
When he went to college, he had to drink three or four pounds of liquor every day, and the classmates were surprised to see it, they once thought that Zhang Zheng drank liquor as water, and even eight drinkers who drank with Zhang Zheng died of excessive drinking!
During college, Zhang Zhengbai did not leave his body, and at the same time, he and the female classmates who pursued him smoothly entered the marriage hall. Both became people's policemen after graduation, and soon after, they had a daughter, which seemed to be a happy family of three.
The wife thought that she and her husband had become the people's police, and the husband would be slightly restrained about drinking, and would take care of their small family of three more carefully. However, contrary to his wishes, Zhang Zheng's alcohol addiction not only did not alleviate, but also intensified.
Once Zhang Zheng took his daughter to a party with friends, there must be liquor on the dinner table, he drank his own wine, and after drinking several pounds of liquor, he still insisted on driving home by himself.
Zhang Zheng, who had long been drowsy after drinking, could not see the road ahead, causing the vehicle to roll over on the national highway. Fortunately, he was slightly injured, and the daughter in the back seat was not injured.
However, this incident has completely become the fuse for the husband and wife to break up. His wife felt desperate, and she could not bear the fact that her husband had abandoned his daughter's safety for the sake of the liquor.
Finally the contradiction broke out!
"I'll let you drink!" Let you drink! Now I see you can't drink it yet! ”
One day in 2003, Zhang Zheng's wife took advantage of his outing for a drink and took out a hammer to smash the fine wine he had treasured for many years.
Zhang Zheng, who returned home after drinking, found that his wine had all been smashed by his wife, and his previous guilt had disappeared, but instead he was talking badly.
"You dare to smash my wine like this, well, I'm still afraid of something, there is no wine at home, I will go outside to drink!"
Zhang Zheng shouted loudly to his wife, looking excited and showing hatred on his face.
This time the quarrel completely shattered the wife's illusions, and also accelerated the breakup between the two.
One day in November of the same year, Zhang Zheng returned home as usual, only to find that the home had long been empty. His wife returned to her mother's house with her daughter, determined not to expect anything more from her alcoholic husband.
Zhang Zheng immediately realized the seriousness of the problem, and he immediately went to his father-in-law's house, hoping to take back his wife and children. But he had already made up his mind how his wife could leave and return to that wine-scented home, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law also knew what Zhang Zheng had done, so naturally they did not let him enter the house to pick up his daughter and granddaughter.
Without a wife and daughter, Zhang Zheng became more and more violent, angry at every turn, and drank more and more wine, to a state of not leaving the wine day by day.
When his parents saw their son in such a state, they became more and more worried, thinking that they must stop their son from indulging in alcohol like this again.
One day, his parents saw Zhang Zheng drinking again, and they persuaded him bitterly to take away his wine bottle and let him get his wife and children back.
"Give me, give me the wine!"
Zhang Zheng was about to grab the bottle in his father's hand, and he was very emotional.
"You don't have to drink any more, you have to die if you drink any more, don't you want your wife and children?"
Zhang Zheng's parents tearfully persuaded their son, hoping to awaken his sanity. Unexpectedly, his son actually pointed a gun at them and vowed to take back his wine bottle when he died.
The second elder finally felt cold, put down the bottle of wine in tears, and left Zhang Zheng's home, no longer caring about this completely decadent son.
Zhang Zheng did not have anyone's restraints, more and more unscrupulous, all day long is the wine can not leave the body, and finally let himself go to the end. As a people's policeman, because of his alcoholism and repeated mistakes, he was unable to do his job for a long time, and finally he was dismissed by the unit. At this point, he became more and more addicted to alcohol, and could only rely on drinking to relieve the bitterness in his heart.
His parents loved their son after all, and eventually sent him to a mental hospital. Helplessly, Zhang Zheng's alcohol addiction is difficult to quit, even when it is treatment, it is still a bottle of wine, or uncontrolled drinking. In the end, five in and five out of the mental hospital had no effect.
Successive tosses also made Zhang Zheng physically and mentally exhausted, and his parents were also suffering and torturing. Fortunately, his parents had not given up on him, and a note saved his life.
"Son, Dad begs you to quit the bar, otherwise we really have no hope, you were so good before, you can quit drinking well and go back to the past."
Zhang Zheng saw this note at the dinner table after he came out of the mental hospital for the fifth time, and his mother made him a table of good dishes and specially took out a few bottles of wine for him.
"Son, this note was written by your father crying, this table is what I made for you to eat, this time the wine is enough for you, and then you go to the alcohol rehabilitation center to quit the wine, it is considered that your parents begged you." 」
Zhang Zheng looked at his father's tear marks on the note, and then looked at his tearful mother, and then he made up his mind to go to the alcohol rehabilitation center to quit drinking.
Fortunately, this time it was effective, and he successfully gave up drinking. And life is back on track. In 2005, he obtained a psychological counseling qualification certificate, and Zhang Zheng, who had been addicted to alcohol, reformed himself and became a staff member of the alcohol rehab center.
Now he is no longer addicted to alcohol, but has carried out various publicity activities to quit alcohol throughout the country, successfully persuading many people to quit drinking.
There is another person who can match this, that is, Zhang Rui. This person was once addicted to alcohol, but also through thunder means, he wanted to quit his addiction.
Zhang Rui first tasted the taste of liquor as early as the age of 8, and since then he has been out of control. In high school, he was even more unrestrained, and after being persuaded to resign from school because of drunkenness, he entered society early after finishing high school.
Without the blessing of academic qualifications, Zhang Rui can only do some chores, and after a few years of mixing in society, he learned that trucks are very profitable, so he studied and obtained a driver's license and officially became a truck driver.
Zhang Rui had a stable job, and soon after, he started a family, had a wife and children, and lived a relatively happy life. Parents look at their children and are also relieved, no longer blaming their children for what they did.
However, life has never been smooth. Zhang Rui's family situation is not too good, and the whole family is crammed into a dilapidated small house. His father was seriously ill, needed medication for years, and needed a lot of money to raise his children.
Even though he got up early every day and worked in the dark, there was still no way to support the expenses of the whole family. And the pressure also overwhelmed him, only in the middle of the night to relieve his anxiety by drinking, but did not think, but this fueled his addiction.
The death of Zhang Rui's father gave him a fatal blow.
One day in 2011, his father died suddenly, suffering from illness. Unable to accept reality, Zhang Rui is psychologically difficult to discharge, and since then he has been decadent and depressed, living with alcohol all day long, completely ignoring the rest of the family.
Like Zhang Zheng's wife's experience, Zhang Rui's wife is really powerless for her alcoholic husband, desperate to the extreme, and has to choose to leave with the child.
The departure of his wife and children completely stimulated him, making him realize that he could no longer indulge in alcohol, and now his wife and daughter were separated because of his own drinking, so he made up his mind to quit drinking.
Zhang Rui knows that the power of alcohol is very strong, it is not so easy to quit the addiction, in order to achieve his goals, he took a cruel move against himself.
He knelt before his mother and begged her to chain himself in his attic, and he wanted to completely quit his addiction in such a resolute way.
His mother was hesitant at first, but then she looked at her son who was crying on his knees, and she made up her mind and locked her child in the attic with a chain weighing 30 pounds.
Zhang Rui still underestimated his alcohol addiction. When he was addicted to alcohol in the attic, he could not control his emotions at all, and before he could drink, he became extremely angry and violent, roaring like a wild beast, smashing the only furniture in the attic to pieces.
In the four years from 2011 to 2015, Zhang Rui's abstinence career has been repeated, and an iron chain can trap him!
After the onset of alcoholism, he became manic and smashed more than a dozen iron locks. After escaping, he borrowed money everywhere to buy alcohol and drink, and when he was drunk, he fell directly to the ground and could not get up.
His mother has long been discouraged, her son can not quit alcohol addiction, now the mother and son are lonely, the family can only rely on her alone to sell snacks on the roadside to make a living, not to mention what money can send her son to a professional alcohol rehabilitation center.
Fortunately, the power of the media is powerful. Local media reported the story of Zhang Rui's abstinence from alcohol, and immediately with the help of social forces, public welfare assistance was provided to him.
In October 2015, he came to a brain hospital in Shanghai for treatment. The doctor conducted a comprehensive consultation and found that his body had long been seriously injured due to alcohol, and he needed minimally invasive hip replacement surgery immediately.
Fortunately, after the doctor's surgery and two months of alcohol abstinence treatment, Zhang Rui's alcohol addiction was controlled. At the end of 2015, after a doctor's diagnosis and meeting the discharge criteria, he walked out of the hospital with his mother.
Zhang Rui, who came out of the hospital, said to his mother with emotion: "Mom, my son will never drink again, and he will live well the rest of his life." ”
Anything, in moderation. The same is true for wine, although the wine is good, you can't be greedy. What person's life does not have a time of frustration, but it is not possible to escape reality through alcoholism, but should pluck up the courage to face decadence.
Excessive drinking is both irresponsible to oneself and extremely irresponsible to one's family. Zhang Zheng and Zhang Rui's wives and children all left because of their alcoholism, which is really worthy of everyone's vigilance.
