Chapter 101 Topics at the dinner table

 Uncle Xu, like a child, secretly pinched a piece of meat and put it into his mouth, chewing it while showing a satisfied smile.

Yes, that’s the smell!

Uncle Xu thought that what he did was very secretive, but in fact, everyone had already seen it.

Aunt Xu looked at her husband helplessly and tugged on his sleeve.

That means, can you please stop doing this? It’s so embarrassing.

Uncle Xu acted innocent and said that he had done nothing!

Aunt Xu was about to talk about Uncle Xu.

"Uncle, aunt, you and Xiaobai go to the restaurant and take a seat. I've almost prepared the meal."

“There’s still a soup that’s not ready yet, but it’s almost done.”

"Mengyi, you and Xiaobai bring the dishes to the table, and you and your uncle and aunt will eat first."

Zhang Yu's words also relieved Uncle Xu. Uncle Xu glanced at Zhang Yu, his eyes full of gratitude.

Aunt Xu could no longer argue with her husband, so she helped Mengyi and Zhou Xiaobai put the dishes on the table.

Uncle Xu and others did not move their chopsticks immediately, wanting to wait for Zhang Yu to sit down and eat together.

I went to the study again and picked up a bottle of good wine.

Pour it for yourself and Zhang Yu.

It happened that Zhang Yu's soup was also cooked and brought to the table.

Seeing Uncle Xu pouring himself wine, he quickly took the bottle from Uncle Xu.

"Uncle, what are you doing? As a junior, it's only right for me to pour it for you. How can I let you pour it for me?"

"Hey, you are here to visit my uncle. You are a guest. I don't have any younger brothers or sisters in my uncle's family. I have to raise a glass to welcome the guests. I have to come by myself."

"Besides, you have been busy for so long, and my uncle feels sorry for you. You are a sensible child."

"Uncle apologizes to you, but he doubts your cooking skills."

Zhang Yu quickly stopped Uncle Xu. If he continued talking, Zhang Yu would be embarrassed to stay here.

Mengyi and Zhou Xiaobai also quickly spoke out to persuade them.

"Uncle, didn't we agree to let Zhang Yu come to our house as a guest? Why do you say thank you!"

"If you do this again, Zhang Yu will be embarrassed to come here in the future."

"Yes, uncle, you are an elder and you are a good friend of Master Zhang Yu. It is appropriate for Zhang Yu to cook a meal for you. There is no need for this."

Aunt Xu shook her head at the three children and told them to stop talking and speak for themselves.

"Old Xu, go back and prepare the wine quickly. Let Zhang Yu fill up the wine for you."

“The Sichuan cuisine you’ve been looking forward to for so long is now on the table, aren’t you in a hurry to eat it?”

Uncle Xu did not forget about the meal.

It's right to think about it. Based on the relationship between the two of them, Zhang Yu should pour himself wine.

He sat back on the stool with peace of mind, and Zhang Yu followed closely behind him, filling Uncle Xu's glass with wine.

Aunt Xu, Mengyi and the others had tea instead of wine.

"Come on, honey, let's raise a glass together and welcome Zhang Yu to our home."

Uncle Xu and Zhang Yu took a sip, and then they picked up their chopsticks and started eating their favorite dishes.

When Uncle Xu saw it, he didn't care about drinking anymore. He quickly picked up his chopsticks and gave himself a piece of Dongpo pork.

While tasting the delicious food, I gave Zhang Yushu a thumbs up.

"Zhang Yu, uncle wants to trouble you with something!"

Zhang Yu quickly put down his chopsticks and prepared to listen.

"Say it, uncle."

"I can do it, and I will not shirk it."

Uncle Xu quickly waved his hand.

"Hahaha, it's not that serious. I just want you to come back to my house in a few days and cook some dishes."

"I have some old friends who were transferred from Sichuan and have not eaten authentic Sichuan food for some years."

"Looking at how good your craftsmanship is, my uncle wants to invite you to come again."

Hey, what did you think it was?

But think about it, there are very few opportunities for Uncle Xu to take advantage of Qin Hao.

It’s just a simple meal, it must be no problem!

"Uncle, you are out of town again, how can you have a meal?"

"In the future, if I have time, Mengyi and I will visit our house often, and Xiaobai will make more delicious food for you and your aunt."

Mengyi and Zhou Xiaobai nodded numbly, agreeing with Zhang Yu's proposal.

"Yes, uncle, we have to come here more often in the future. There are more of us, so we can eat in an atmosphere."

"Yes, uncle. Besides, Zhang Yu's family is no longer in the city. It's just me and Zhang Yu having dinner at night. It's too monotonous."

"We will come to spend time with you two elders more often in the future. Not only will we have a good dining atmosphere, but we will also have time to chat together."

Aunt Xu was not as hypocritical as Uncle Xu. She nodded quickly and held the palms of Zhang Yu and Mengyi.

"Child, aunt, thank you. Remember us two old guys. From now on, the door of aunt's house will always be open to you two."

"When the time comes, you can just walk in."

When Zhou Xiaobai heard that he was not there, he quickly raised his arms.

"Me, me, aunt and I are here too. I will come here often in the future."

"Okay, okay, and Xiaobai, hahaha..."

Everyone was amused by Zhou Xiaobai's words.

Uncle Xu looked at the three children with a smile on his face, and suddenly felt that the temperature in the room was warm.

"Come on, let's have another drink."

"Zhang Yu, try harder. You're a young man. You can't drink as much as an old man like me."

Zhang Yu didn't agree or refuse randomly. He raised his glass, looked at how much his uncle drank, and took a sip.

I have to send the two girls home safely later, even though we are not far from Zhou Xiaobai’s home.

But I don’t dare to be careless. Only when I see him return home with my own eyes can I feel safe.

As for Mengyi, be more careful. After all, she is your future daughter-in-law, so you can’t bump into her, otherwise you should feel bad for yourself.

"Hey, that's right. You are young now and will have more friends in the future. Drinking situations are a must."

"By the way, I haven't asked you yet!"

"Are you sure you will be promoted to another level this year?"

Zhang Yu nodded implicitly and did not talk about it too much.

"How high can your current yield be?"

Zhang Yu thought for a moment.

"Hmm~, it can reach 90%."

"There are still some leftovers, not considered scrapped, but the details are a little rough."

As soon as Uncle Xu heard this, he knew that Zhang Yu would be promoted to another level this year, which was a sure shot.

Zhang Yu looks young.

"Zhang Yu, are you in your twenties now?"

"Ah? I'm twenty-one."

Zhang Yu was confused when asked, and didn't understand what Uncle Xu meant.

At such a young age, Uncle Xu was shocked.

"Twenty-one?"

"Are you working at level 21 or 4?"

"I heard from Xiao Yang, haven't you only been working for three years?"

Zhang Yu nodded affirmatively.

"Yes, I joined the factory when I was seventeen."

"But I was lucky. Not long after I entered the factory, I was accepted by the master."

"The reason why I was promoted so quickly is mostly due to my master."

Uncle Xu took what Zhang Yu said as flattery.

"Go, go, let's talk about you. Why are you mentioning Lao Ma? Lao Ma is not here, so there is no need to say those nice things."

"No, what I said is true. My master also talked to me about many welding techniques today."

"Not just today, but also in the past. I have the habit of taking notes. I have written down everything the master said. When I am free in the evening, I will read it again to enhance my memory."

Zhang Yu can only praise Master Ma for how well he did, and is sincerely grateful to Master.
