Chapter 678: Guests from afar
On April 28, it was only two days before May Day. The inn business was getting better. Wu Fei changed into fish-catching equipment early in the morning and prepared to go fishing with his father.
Today, there are a lot of fish I want to catch. Lantian Company needs 2,000 kilograms, the rich man needs 800 kilograms, and there are also several other companies that also require about 1,000 kilograms. Usually, everyone can't get so much at a time, so this time I should have prepared more to deal with the May Day holiday.
When Wu Fei came down from the courtyard, his father had already made preparations and sank the fishing net to the bottom of the water. He was placing bamboo rafts into the fishing net to lure fish.
When Wu Fei came down, Wu Bang had already sprinkled all the ingredients mixed with rice bran and wine lees. Seeing Wu Fei coming, he said to Wu Fei: "Xiao Fei, your Uncle Zhang called last night. Their family will come back on May Day. You can leave three or four rooms in the Siheyuan. There are still rooms now, right?"
When Wu Fei heard that Uncle Zhang was coming back on May Day, he asked a little strangely: "Didn't Uncle Zhang come back on Qingming Festival? Why did he come back on May Day this time? Is there anything wrong?"
During the Qingming Festival, Uncle Zhang and his son came back to visit the graves. They stayed in the village for one night before returning to Shenzhen. When they left, Wu Fei filled all the extra space in the car that Uncle Zhang drove back. There was also a chicken cage tied to the roof of the car, which contained two chickens and two old ducks.
After returning from Shenzhen City, Wu Fei usually contacted Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang. Except for sending a blessing message during the Chinese New Year and the holidays, he almost never contacted him.
However, every once in a while, Wu Fei would send Uncle Zhang some things grown in the field, such as vegetables, fruits and melons, and dried fish and pickled vegetables. Anyway, as long as it has it at home, you can get some whatever you think of.
Usually, my mother contacts Aunt Zhang more often. Parents often say that they have a long time to have a long time, especially after Damao and Ermao were born, my mother could tell someone that she would not take a break for a day.
When Wu Fei was in Shenzhen, Uncle Zhang's family rarely went back to their hometown during the Qingming Festival. After all, the family has been working and living in Shenzhen for so many years. Apart from a few two cousins, there are no other relatives in the family. After Uncle Zhang's death, his descendants may not even come back to the Qingming Festival.
"You Uncle Zhang has not taken much vacation from last year to this year. This time, you plan to take a break for a while, but you haven't come back for many years, so you plan to go back to your hometown to live for a while."
Wu Bang said to Wu Fei: "Your Uncle Zhang's family will live at his cousin's house, but this time your Uncle Zhang brought a few friends back and will stay in the inn at that time.
Please ask Changqing to see if he will be in the village during May Day, and ask him to help cook some dishes, and then invite your Uncle Zhang and his friends to have a meal.
When you were in Shenzhen, your uncle and aunt took care of you a lot. Now that you are back, you have to thank them very well.”
When my dad said that Aunt Zhang and the others needed a house, Wu Fei took out his cell phone and turned on Ctrip's backstage.
There are the most rooms left in the first room, and there are 8 rooms, one of which has no reservations. From the second one, there are more people who book the room, and at least four rooms a day have not been booked.
Wu Fei hurriedly logged into his account and left four rooms to no longer book, including that suite.
Shencheng, Uncle Zhang.
During dinner, in addition to Uncle Zhang's family, there were several guests present at Uncle Zhang's family, including a few of them Wu Fei had met before, and Dai Guopei was also here today.
Uncle Zhang said to Dai Guopei: "Old Dai, I will have a holiday after checking the room tomorrow morning. Everyone should prepare to leave after lunch. Then everyone stayed on the road for one night, and slowly drove slowly and arrived the afternoon after the day.
Have you ever told Wu Fei this time that he opened an inn in the village and didn’t know how the business was?"
"Actually, we will be able to arrive in the evening when we set off early the morning. Last time we set off in the morning and arrived in the evening."
Dai Guopei recalled his experience of going to Longshan Village last time: "Actually, the environment in your hometown is better than many tourist areas, especially the air can be said to be the best place I have been to. However, the road in the mountains is too narrow. I heard that the road is being expanded, and I don't know if it has been built. Why are your family going back this time? Will Yixiang also want to go back?"
"The road was repaired last time when I went back on Qingming Festival, it was more than five meters wide, which was very good.
Isn’t Yixiang going to get married? This time, he asked them to go back and recognize relatives and friends from their hometown. When they get married in the second half of the year, some people may not plan to come here because they are not convenient. It is not convenient to go so far to drink.”
Uncle Zhang said to everyone: "This time we used to live in an inn run by my friend's house. Speaking of which, some of the inn owners, you may have met. The young man who would often come to his house for dinner and sold the house with Lao Li."
Lao Li, also the former boss of Wu Fei, also had a meal here at Lao Zhang: "You said Wu Fei, since he returned home from heatstroke, he often contacted everyone at the beginning. Now he hasn't been in touch for a long time. I didn't expect that he will open an inn in my hometown now.
But I see his circle of friends. The stalls in his hometown are quite small. They raise fish in the reservoir, grow vegetables and watermelon and strawberries. Now the inn is open, and it feels much better than when they were selling houses before. But I have never seen him show his face in his circle of friends."
"When you see him this time, you promise to eat a pound. Compared to when I was here before, I was a different person. I couldn't believe it when I saw him last time."
Lao Li asked a little disbelief: "Have there been such a big change after returning home?"
"When I was here, I was only 130 kilograms tall, as thin as a bamboo pole, with no flesh on my body, and no blood on my body, otherwise I wouldn't have been so easy to get heatstroke."
Lao Zhang said with some emotion: "So the rice at home is still to support people. After a year or two, the bamboo poles used to become a strong man. I heard that they have grown taller when they got home. Now they are more than 150 kilograms, and they are full of muscles. They don't have a beer belly like everyone else.
Last time I went back, I saw that he had about 100 pounds of vegetables per basket and easily mentioned it to the car. It was better to do farm work than to exercise in the gym."
Lao Zhang said to his son: "Yixiang, after going back for more than a week this time, you will also help your uncle and the others do farm work and experience your dad's life when he was a child."
