Jin Lin and Dalei both had their hands full, carrying big bags of things.
"What are you two doing? Are you celebrating the New Year or the holidays? There is no shortage of things at home, and you haven't even finished what you normally bring." said the old Taoist.
"Isn't Chang Xing back? If we come here often to eat and drink, Master, the things you have at home won't be enough." Da Lei said with a smile.
"When Chang Xing comes back, you will come to eat and drink. I usually let you eat and drink, but I can't even keep you." The old Taoist said dissatisfied.
"Chang Xing's craftsmanship is good." Da Lei was not tactful at all.
"You're a foodie, so you speak directly." Lao Dao laughed, not caring at all. Lao Dao really didn't have any talent in cooking. No matter how good the ingredients were, he could make it taste like pig food.
"Master's craftsmanship is not very good to begin with." Da Lei muttered.
Chang Xing grinned non-stop.
"Chang Xing, how long do you plan to stay before returning to Donghai this time?" Jin Lin asked.
"It's rare to come back to stay with Master, so I plan to stay longer. Wanyi will also take leave to go back to Xianji Bridge for vacation during the holidays in Changqing." Chang Xing said.
"That's great. I come to the mountain every day to eat and drink. Is the monkey wine enough?" Dalei said happily.
"Enough. If you are drunk, I will throw you to the edge of the cliff and hang you. When your mother-in-law comes to find someone, I will tell you that you did not go up the mountain." Chang Xing chuckled.
"Chang Xing, we grew up together and are as close as brothers. It was you who saved my life. Are you willing to push me into a trap?" Zhang Dalei said with a sad face.
"You said back then that we would never marry a mother-in-law and live together. Aren't you still marrying a mother-in-law now?" Chang Xing talked about Da Lei's embarrassing things back then, and everyone laughed.
Da Lei also laughed and retorted: "Chang Xing, you said this with no regrets. You are the first one in our generation to get married, and you married an educated young man from the city.
No one knows, no one knows."
Xiao Jinlin also said: "I regretted it very much at the time. I thought to myself, why did I get married so early? There were so many beautiful educated young people at that time, why didn't I think of marrying an educated young man? Or Chang Xing has a future.
.”
"I'll go talk to Xiumei later and tell her to divorce you. You can go back and find the intellectual young woman who came to our brigade. You are so bragging that you think you can marry a young intellectual woman just by yourself.
?In our Xianji Bridge, Chang Xing is the only one. Zhou Hongbing and Zhang Xilai, neither of them have any share. Only that idiot Xiao Hongxia needs some insight. Chang Xing finally got her the quota to attend the Workers', Peasants and Soldiers University. The results are here
Things changed in the city. I heard that her life is not good at all now." Dalei said.
Xiao Jinlin quickly touched Zhang Dalei with his arm: "Why are you talking about this? They threw away their hoes and became state cadres. That is their ability. We people in Xianjiqiao still have to live a good life and make a fortune. In the future, we will
Let them understand that even if we don’t go to college, we will still live a better life than them. When we go out, we will turn against each other and not recognize anyone, what the hell!”
Chang Xing did not mention Zhou Hongbing's trip to the East China Sea a few years ago. Otherwise, Zhang Dalei and Xiao Jinlin would have scolded this guy thoroughly.
But when talking about the past, it is always inevitable to talk about Zhang Xilai and Zhou Hongbing. In fact, Zhou Hongbing was not very close when he was a child. Xilai, Da Lei and Chang Xing were the two who played best. Basically, when we talk about it when we were young,
Basically, three people were present for any incident. Every time Lao Dao went down the mountain, he would often leave Chang Xing at Xilai's house.
"You guys sit down first and I'll get the food. Let's have a good drink today," Chang Xing said.
"Yes, when I came up the mountain, I told my mother-in-law that if you come back today, we will definitely drink. It is not safe to go down the mountain at night. So we will sleep in the temple." Da Lei said with a smile.
"I agreed." Xiao Jinlin glanced towards the kitchen.
The old man stood aside, rarely speaking, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was asleep. Xiao Jinlin and Zhang Dalei were both used to it, so they didn't disturb him.
Xiao Jinlin waved to Zhang Dalei, and the two of them carried everything they brought to the kitchen.
"What are you two doing here? We have to wait a while. We won't be able to eat it so quickly." Chang Xing said.
"We're here to help. We need to find a place to put these things." Dalei said.
"Put it on the shelf over there. I'll find a place to put it away later. Thanks to you two for your help in the past few years," Chang Xing said.
"Look at what you said. He is also the master of both of us. Isn't that what we should do to take care of our master? Chang Xing, it's all thanks to you that Dalei and I are where we are today. Xiumei told me that her parents
If it weren't for the good work of our Xianji Bridge, they wouldn't be willing to marry their daughter so far away. Her parents still often say that their daughter is married too far away, and it's not easy to even visit her," said Xiao Jinlin.
Xiao Jinlin naturally still remembers that if Chang Xing had not controlled the bear attack, the wedding party would have almost suffered a disaster. Chang Xing dealt with a black bear by himself and suppressed the Wu family crowd at that time.
"I don't even need to mention anything else. With the friendship we had when we were young, how could I not care about your affairs? You accepted two of our apprentices for the master. Naturally, we should take care of our master. Besides, in fact,
There's not much to do. I just come to the mountain for a walk every day. Besides, we can take turns going up the mountain," Zhang Dalei said.
"I won't talk about this anymore. The three of us will have a drink later," Chang Xing said.
Chang Xing's craftsmanship is getting better and better nowadays. He can make flowers out of any vegetables in his hands. Several seemingly ordinary ingredients, in Chang Xing's hands, seem to become natural treasures.
The delicacies that came out were just different. Zhang Dalei was so greedy that he almost drooled.
"Dalei, you worthless guy has become a father, how come you still can't change your habit of drooling when you see good things?" Xiao Jinlin looked at Zhang Dalei and laughed.
"If you can't change it, you can't change it. Who doesn't have a hobby in life?" Zhang Dalei didn't care at all.
"Get out, don't tell others that you are my junior brother, I can't afford to embarrass this person." Xiao Jinlin said.
"I feel embarrassed to have a senior brother like you!" Zhang Dalei said carelessly.
The two men kept bickering in the kitchen. Chang Xing also joined in from time to time.
It didn't take long for the three people to set up the food and wine. On Chang Xing's first day back, he naturally had to pay respects to the ancestor before he could eat. So he first paid respect to the ancestor in the temple. All the etiquettes were performed one by one before the table was set.
The chairs were changed, the bowls and chopsticks were changed, the rice that had been served to the ancestor had to be put back into the pot, the wine had to be spilled, but the dishes could not be moved. Only at this time can we start.
