After riding a bike to Kuang Longfei's Tangtang Pickled Fish Shop, Sun Quan parked the car on the side of the road and walked into the shop.
At this time, there was only a young couple and a little girl eating in the hall downstairs. When Sun Quan came in, Kuang Longfei, dressed in a white chef uniform, came out of the kitchen with a plate of shredded green peppers and potatoes to serve the guests at the table.
Seeing Sun Quan come in, Kuang Longfei immediately smiled and said, "Sun Quan! Here you go! What do you want to eat tonight?"
As for his senior female ticket, she was still sitting at the bar like noon. At this time, she raised her eyes and glanced at Sun Quan, gave her a lukewarm smile and then lowered her head.
"A portion of scrambled eggs with chives and a large plate of chicken!"
Because he planned to drink some beer tonight, Sun Quan ordered an extra dish.
Kuang Longfei was a little surprised, but his smile became even brighter. He casually placed the green pepper and potato shreds on the table and gave Sun Quan an OK gesture, "No problem! I'll make it for you right away! You go first
Sit wherever you want! Take whatever you want to drink! Just settle the accounts together later!"
Sun Quan nodded, walked to the wine display cabinet, and picked up two bottles of cold beer.
At this time, Kuang Longfei and Tangtang stood up at the bar and brought him a pair of bowls, chopsticks and a glass of wine.
When she brought the tableware to Sun Quan's table, she finally spoke to him, but her tone was still light, "Do you want me to open a beer for you?"
Such a cold service attitude?
Sun Quan looked up at her funny and waved his hand, "No, no! You're too polite, senior sister, I can just drive it myself!"
There was a beer wrench on the table, so he took it over and opened a bottle himself.
"Then it's up to you!"
After Tangtang finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the bar.
Sun Quan glanced at her back twice and was a little speechless.
When I opened the door for business, this senior lady’s service attitude was so cold. How could this business be so good? Do you think it’s college time and everyone will praise you for your beauty?
Of course, this woman is not his girlfriend, and he doesn't bother to talk about her. Anyway, he is just doing Kuang Longfei's favor by providing meals here.
I just mourn in my heart for Kuang Longfei.
If you open a store with such a female supporter, it would be strange if the store fails to open!
Not long after, Kuang Longfei brought him a freshly cooked scrambled egg with chives and a plate of cucumber segments.
"The big plate of chicken still needs to be cooked for a while, so here are the cucumber segments for you to eat! Crisp and refreshing!"
When putting down the dishes, Kuang Longfei smiled broadly.
Sun Quan thanked him, and Kuang Longfei said, "Then you eat first!" and turned back to the kitchen.
Sun Quan poured himself a cup, drank wine and ate vegetables.
There’s not much to say about the wine, but the food! Kuang Longfei’s cooking is just okay, but it’s just okay, there’s nothing special about it, it’s not particularly delicious, and it’s not particularly bad either.
Ten minutes later, Kuang Longfei brought the large plate of chicken he ordered to the table.
When the dish was served, Kuang Longfei looked at Sun Quan a little strangely, "You ordered so many dishes and you're the only one eating it? Where is your girlfriend? She hasn't gotten off work yet, right?"
"separated!"
Sun Quan answered casually and had no intention of hiding anything.
"separated?"
Kuang Longfei was startled, "Why? Isn't your girlfriend very nice? Did she break up with you?"
Probably after hearing their conversation, Tang Tang, who was sitting at the bar not far away, raised his eyes and glanced at Sun Quan.
Sun Quan laughed and shook his head, "No! I was the one who suggested the breakup!"
Senior Tang Tang at the bar frowned slightly and rolled his eyes slightly.
Kuang Longfei: "..."
Probably because there was no food to cook for the time being, Kuang Longfei simply pulled out the chair opposite Sun Quan, sat down, and asked with some curiosity: "You mentioned breaking up? Why?"
"I don't feel anything anymore. Why are you still keeping it if you don't care?"
Sun Quan was not interested in talking about this topic anymore. He made a casual remark and brought the half-open bottle of beer to Kuang Longfei, "Come on! Monitor, don't ask anything else. If you are not busy now, we will drink together."
Two cups! By the way, are you and my senior sister busy in your store? Why didn’t I see the waiter? You, the boss, serve the food yourself? "
Kuang Longfei looked helpless, grabbed the wine bottle with a wry smile, and while clinking glasses with Sun Quan, he sighed: "Originally, I hired a waiter, a side dish, and a waiter, but... this business in my shop
You have also seen that such a business cannot afford to pay the wages of the staff! We have to let them go, alas! Business is not easy to do!"
Sun Quan nodded slightly, drank the beer in the cup, then picked up the beer wrench and opened another bottle of cold beer.
While filling his own glass, he changed the subject, "Monitor, do you know how many classmates from our class are still in this city? You are the monitor, you should know, right?"
Kuang Longfei took out a pair of chopsticks from the chopstick holder on the table to pick up the food and answered: "I don't know exactly how many people are still here, but as far as I know, there are four or five left!"
We are all learning cooking. This city is a tourist city with many large and small restaurants. It is easy to stay here and find a job. The few I know are working as chefs now! What? You want to find an opportunity to get together with everyone?
?"
…
The two of them chatted while eating, and unknowingly drank one bottle after another of beer.
At the final checkout, Kuang Longfei wanted to waive the cost of a few bottles of beer. Sun Quan noticed that his senior female student looked hesitant, so he laughed, declined Kuang Longfei's kindness, and insisted on paying for the drinks.
When he came out of Kuang Longfei's shop, Sun Quan was already a little drunk and couldn't ride the bicycle. He just pushed the bicycle on the way back.
It was already the time when the lanterns were on, and because it was summer vacation, there were very few people walking on the streets.
When he passed the gate of his alma mater, University M, he suddenly wanted to go in and take a walk, so he pushed the cart into the gate.
The campus at night was quite quiet because it was summer vacation.
In the night, under the influence of alcohol, he walked slowly on the familiar road of his alma mater. He couldn't help but recall many people and things during his college years. Now that he thought about it, he was the most carefree and happiest time in his more than thirty years of life.
It’s been three years since college.
right!
His college only lasted three years!
Because he studied at a junior college, he spent two and a half years in school and half a year as an intern, adding up to three years.
Three years passed by like a fleeting time, and he graduated before he had time to go crazy.
When passing a lotus pond, Sun Quan parked his bicycle on the side of the road, sat on the stone railing beside the pond, lit a cigarette, took out his mobile phone and called home. Back in 2006, he still wanted to hear from his father.
Mom's voice.
It was his mother who answered the phone.
"Hello? Ah Quan? What's the matter with your call?"
His mother was an out-and-out rural woman with a native dialect of her hometown.
"Mom! Nothing's wrong. I just wanted to ask how your family is doing lately? Are you and my dad in good health?"
"It's nothing. Why are you calling me back? The phone bill is so expensive, okay! Your dad and I are fine! What can happen at home? Nothing! What about you? Are you okay over there? You have graduated from college now.
