When they arrived at the hotpot restaurant, Zhou Sheng and the others had already arrived.
Chen Yuan pulled out chairs for his parents, and after they sat down, Chen Yuan introduced: "Mom and dad, this is my and Zhou Sheng's master, Lin Xinhai. We also recognized him as our godfather...
Master took great care of me and Zhou Sheng when we were on the boat."
"Hello." Chen Yuan's father is not good at communication and doesn't know how to say hello.
Lin Xinhai stood up with a smile: "According to your customs, we should be considered in-laws, right?"
Chen Yuan's father smiled and nodded: "You can say we are in-laws. I am 48 years old, you should be a little older than me?"
"Master Lin is the eldest brother, I am the second eldest brother, and you are the third eldest brother." Zhou Sheng's father said with a smile.
Compared with Chen Yuan's father, Zhou Sheng's father talks more.
"Brother Lin."
"Hahaha...Chen Sandi."
"My son, quickly pour wine for my eldest brother and third brother." Father Zhou said with a smile.
The black thread on Zhou Sheng's end went over to catch the draft beer brought by the waiter and gave it to Lin Xinhai and Chen Yuan's father.
When Lin Xinhai heard Zhou's father call him 'my son', he didn't stop and laughed out loud.
Wang Peng and Lin Xiaoyue wanted to laugh but were embarrassed.
Chen Yuan also lowered his head and smiled, saying: "My son has the appearance of an emperor." He got up and brought everyone beer and drinks.
Zhou Sheng gritted his teeth at Chen Yuan.
Lin Xinhai looked at Chen Yuan with a smile and said: "My son, it would be nice to eat wild mushroom hotpot tonight. You are my godson, so calling me my son is not too much."
"What do you think?"
"I don't think it's too much."
There were many people at night, so we shared two tables.
This is a hot pot restaurant with Yunnan characteristics, and wild mushrooms are its biggest feature.
Various fungi are weighed by kilogram, gallinobacteria cost 330 yuan per kilogram, porcini mushrooms cost 170 yuan per kilogram...there are also green head mushrooms, rice soup fungi, etc.
In their hometown, gallinobacteria cost more than 100 yuan, and porcini mushrooms cost about 100 yuan.
When we got here, the prices went up a lot.
Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng went over and ordered mushrooms, and then ordered two kilograms of snowflake beef slices.
These are wild mushrooms, the waiter explained next to them. These mushrooms must be cooked, especially porcini mushrooms. If they are not cooked, you may see little people when you eat them.
These mushrooms are cooked in the kitchen before being served.
There are two full pots, and there is some beef, which can be boiled after eating the mushrooms.
When the mushrooms were served, Chen Yuan and the others cooked them for a while before starting to eat them.
Hot mushrooms are even more delicious than fresh fish porridge. With just one bite, the flavor reaches the base of your tongue...
At the dinner table, Chen Yuan and the others talked about asking their father to go out to sea with them. Lin Xinhai said that it was no problem, but time was a little tight now and they would go to the fishery administration for training tomorrow.
In order to make it easier to go to sea, the fishery administration department and the maritime department jointly launched four-certificate training.
Especially for fishing boats that go out to sea, all crew members are required to get on board with certificates.
A meal cost more than 6,000 yuan. Chen Yuan rushed to pay the bill: "Master, I will trouble you tomorrow to take our dad to the training center."
"Okay. The training is very simple. There are people I know in it. Just say hello to them and you can take the exam in five or six days. If you don't pass the exam the first time, you can just take it again in a few days." Lin Xinhai said: "This
You guys should have a good rest for a while and wait until you go to sea."
"good."
"We're going back," Zhou Sheng said.
"Walk slowly..."
Chen Yuan took his father and the others back to the car.
"This meal costs several thousand yuan, right?" said the second uncle.
Wild mushrooms are not cheap. If you eat wild mushrooms in a store, the price is even higher.
Looking at the expression on Chen Yuan's father's face, he also felt a little hurt.
"Not much." Chen Yuan said.
"My eldest brother can easily earn this little money by going out to sea," said Chen Xin.
One meal may be a month's salary for many people.
But there are also many people for whom a few thousand dollars is nothing.
The groupers brought back by Chen Yuan and others cost more than a hundred yuan per catty. Some rarer groupers are even more expensive.
Different income levels have different consumption abilities.
After sending his father and the others back, Chen Yuan followed him upstairs and arranged for them before going back.
Go home, take a shower, lie on the bed and take out your phone.
Yan Xiaoxi just sent a text message asking Chen Yuan if he was still going to feed the cat.
Chen Yuan said that he was not free at night, and there was no dried fish at home.
Just as he was about to go to bed, his phone suddenly dinged, and a text message came over. Chen Yuan picked up the phone: "Are you back?" This was a WeChat message from Yan Xiaoxi.
"Go home and get ready to sleep." Chen Yuan said.
"oh……"
After a long time, Yan Xiaoxi did not reply to the text message.
Chen Yuan suddenly lost his sleepiness and rubbed his cheek: "Are you sleeping?"
"without."
"What’s wrong with you?"
"Nothing, I'm downstairs."
Chen Yuan turned on the light and typed: "What are you doing downstairs?"
"Take a walk with Big Orange."
"It's so late, where are you?"
"It's just downstairs. Come down here and I'll tell you something."
"good."
Chen Yuan put on his clothes and went downstairs, where he saw Yan Xiaoxi squatting on the ground holding Da Ju.
Chen Yuan walked over: "What's wrong with you?"
Yan Xiaoxi squatted on the ground, with a fleshy face and bulging cheeks, looking aggrieved, as if she had been bullied.
Yan Xiaoxi shook his head.
Chen Yuan squatted in front of her: "What are you doing?"
"I'm going back to school tomorrow."
"Would you like me to send you off?" Chen Yuan said.
Yan Xiaoxi shook her head vigorously, lowered her head, poked Daju's head with her finger, and whispered: "I want to ask you something."
"explain."
"Do you have a girlfriend?"
"No." Chen Yuan looked at Yan Xiaoxi, whose face was red: "Next, are you asking me if I want a girlfriend?"
Yan Xiaoxi curled up her neck: "Then... do you want it?"
Yan Xiaoxi's heart beat very fast, and her face turned redder, like a ripe apple.
"If it were you, I would want it. If it were someone else, I wouldn't want it."
Yan Xiaoxi buried her head and whispered: "That's me."
"Yes." Chen Yuan said with a smile.
After a while, Yan Xiaoxi's face burst into a smile, and she hugged Daju, who was about to fall asleep, and said, "I'm going back." She didn't know how long she had been squatting here, and her feet were numb.
"I send you."
Yan Xiaoxi lowered her head, feeling happy in her heart, and hugged Daju tightly in her arms.
"I'll take you to school tomorrow." Chen Yuan said.
Yan Xiaoxi pursed her lips and nodded vigorously: "Okay."
The two of them walked very slowly, but it felt like they arrived downstairs in no time.
"I'm going up." Yan Xiaoxi's eyes flickered as she looked at Chen Yuan.
"Have you had dinner?"
"have eaten."
"Would you like a late-night snack..."
"Eat." Yan Xiaoxi said with a smile.
Chen Yuan felt very happy as he walked quietly without saying much.
"Are you tired of holding the big orange?" Chen Yuan said.
"Daju has gained weight recently." Yan Xiaoxi said, "Do you want a hug?"
"good."
Yan Xiaoxi gave the big orange to Chen Yuan.
This guy has really gained a lot of weight.
"When you go back to school, can you raise a cat?" Chen Yuan said.
"He Huan and I rented a house outside the school where we can raise cats." Yan Xiaoxi looked at Chen Yuan. When she looked at Chen Yuan, her eyes seemed to be bright: "Do you want to raise cats?"
Chen Yuan shook his head: "When the sea opens, I will go to sea and I won't have time to take care of it."
"Then I'll take him over to raise him. Daju is easy to raise. He eats and sleeps every day, and eats when he sleeps..."
There was a late-night snack bar outside the community, so the two of them walked there for more than twenty minutes.
