After just drinking a few cups of a pot of tea, Zhou Yan ordered a few snacks, intending to enjoy the rare and relaxing time.
Unexpectedly, the brothers had just enjoyed a few minutes of summer time when Zhou Yan's cell phone rang in his pocket.
Chu Wenshan?
As Zheng Yun's successor, Chu Wenshan has always been prudent in his work, and Anxin Mall is well managed with few problems.
"Hey, Lao Chu, what's the matter?"
"Mr. Zhou, I have something to tell you. Mr. Feng Weiguo from Shun'an Logistics in Dongyang just received a cold chain order from our company. I heard from the logistics company that Mr. Feng and his family personally escorted the truck.
, I set off last night, and I estimate I’ll be able to reach the capital in the afternoon..."
"I know, thanks!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yan stared at Feng Jun with a smile, making the other party confused.
"What's wrong?"
"You really got the shopping card right," Zhou Yan said with a smirk on his face, "My second aunt and second uncle are on their way to the capital. They will arrive in the afternoon..."
"Isn't it?" Feng Jun smiled bitterly, "Didn't my parents already ask you to take the message?"
"I guess you want to meet your future daughter-in-law in person!" Zhou Yan smiled, "You don't have to worry about accommodation, but what are you going to do with my second uncle's wedding banquet?"
"I don't know either..." Feng Jun's face was filled with anxiety and a bit of confusion.
"Okay, I'd better ask the old man!"
As he spoke, Zhou Yan picked up his cell phone and called his father.
"Hello?"
"Dad, my second uncle and his family are on their way here. If they can get to us in the afternoon, what are our arrangements for the evening?"
"Let's talk about it..." There was a bit of hesitation in Zhou's tone, "Your second uncle came over to see his son and daughter-in-law. It's not easy for us to be hosts. Otherwise, you can ask Junjun what he plans to do.
Do you want to eat at home or eat out?”
When making a call, Zhou Yan turned on the speakerphone, and Feng Jun naturally heard everything Zhou said.
"Third uncle, why don't we arrange dinner in the courtyard where I live," Feng Jun said, looking at Zhou Yan, "The atmosphere of the family banquet should be more relaxed, but if you do this, you will have to trouble my brother..."
"By the way, we are in Badaling now. We can't go back at noon. You..."
"We will arrange the rest..."
After watching Zhou Zhenghai hang up the phone, Li Jinling glanced at Xu Wenjing, who was nervous at the side, and joked with a smirk: "Sister-in-law, what a coincidence, as soon as we came out, my second aunt and second uncle came to the capital...
…”
"You kid," Li Yufang glared at her niece and forced a somewhat warm smile to Xu Wenjing, "Xiao Xu, don't worry, Feng Jun's parents are still very easy to talk to..."
Qin's father and Qin's mother, who were resting on the city wall, smiled knowingly and looked at Qin Ruoshu, whose ears were perked up: "Ruoshu, you can also express your feelings!"
"How else can you feel?" Mrs. Zhou Yan smiled and held her daughter-in-law's hand, "We are quite satisfied with our daughter-in-law..."
"Third Sister..." My aunt was a little resentful of Mrs. Zhou Yan's Versailles-like speech.
"Xiao Xu, there is nothing to worry about," Mrs. Zhou Yan looked at the lush mountains in the distance with a smile, "Tonight, all of us are going to support you, you don't have to worry..."
That’s pretty much it!
Li Yufang nodded with satisfaction and thought for a while: "Second sister will come over in the afternoon. Let's go back to the gate of the scenic spot and have lunch before heading back!"
It is easy to go up the mountain, but difficult to go down the mountain.
When climbing up, the steps are still one step at a time, but when you go down the mountain, the stone steps seem to have been reinstalled. Looking from the top down, they are basically vertical...
Here, a group of people trembled and climbed down cautiously, while Zhou Yan and Feng Jun, who were far away in Shahe, were carrying dinner plates and following behind the long lunch group.
After finally getting to the window, Feng Jun realized that there was no empty queue in his long queue: Xinghan Group's free lunch was no worse than the ordinary fly restaurants outside.
"I really envy your employees..."
"I can't stop you from eating!" Zhou Yan rolled his eyes, "Boss, hurry up and cook. We have to buy groceries after eating. How long will we have to work if we don't hurry up?"
"Aren't there still third aunts and younger aunts?"
"Classmate Feng Jun," Zhou Yan was a little speechless, "If I want to make my second uncle happy, can I make those home-cooked dishes?"
"Too……"
Since his family knows his own business, Feng Jun naturally knows what kind of dishes his father likes: he usually likes to cook some delicious, fun, and dishes with nice names at home. In addition, he has been running long-distance freight for many years, so the taste is naturally not the same.
Ordinarily tricky...
Thinking of this, Feng Jun, who rarely visited Anxin Mall, couldn't help but feel a little worried about the types of ingredients in the mall.
However, Feng Jun's worries were obviously unnecessary.
After the two entered the mall, they ran to the aquatic area.
Seeing the large and small aquariums in the aquatic area filled with all kinds of fresh aquatic products, Feng Jun breathed a long sigh of relief, but soon frowned again and glanced at Zhou Yan beside him: "Brother
, can you cook these fish, shrimps, crabs and clams?"
"Of course, you can just point it out and see if I can do it!"
"This!" Feng Jun pointed at the eel in the aquarium.
“We usually braise in braised sauce over there,” Zhou Yan smiled, “However, the most classic way to make it is Huaiyang cuisine’s soft-pocketed long fish...”
"It's okay," Feng Jun nodded with satisfaction, "Let's cook a few fish that night. If there are too many, isn't it a bit too much?"
"You still worry so much about eating at home?" Zhou Yan's eyes lit up, "Are you not going to let your sister-in-law leave a good impression in front of your second aunt and uncle?"
"That's true..." Feng Jun smiled coquettishly.
"It doesn't matter if there are a lot of fish," Zhou Yan glanced at the aquatic area with a smile, "We have a lot of people, we can use other dishes to balance it out..."
The two of them walked around and found seven or eight more packaging bags filled with water and fish in the shopping cart, and then moved to the meat section.
"The ingredients for eight-treasure duck, tripe chicken, lion's head, fried lamb tripe, and beef and donkey meat platter are almost complete..." Zhou Yan glanced at the still empty shopping cart, "Let's add another mutton soup...
"
"Stir-fry some green vegetables..."
"Asparagus in abalone sauce, boiled cabbage heart, wild rice mullet roe, lettuce and shrimp, stir-fried bacon with green beans..." Zhou Yan glanced at the dazzling array of vegetables, then looked back at Feng Jun who was watching the sunrise, "Is this enough?
"
"Brother, I heard that you can make boiled cabbage..."
"Don't even think about it. It will take you a day just to make boiled cabbage and soup. If you want to eat it, when you get married, my brother-in-law and I will arrange it for you..."
"By the way, I don't have many plates over there..."
"I have some bought at home," Zhou Yan glanced at the already full shopping cart, "Go to my house later and move the plates over together..."
When the two of them drove to the courtyard where Feng Jun lived, they just parked the car and before they had time to carry the tableware and ingredients, a tour group heading to the Great Wall to be "heroes" also arrived.
"Hey, it's better to come early than to come by chance!" My aunt snatched the ingredients from Feng Jun's hand, "Oh, Junjun, I've been wandering around the capital these past few days, and I haven't seen what the house you live in looks like?!"
"What else could it be?" Feng Jun was a little speechless. "The courtyard houses in the capital are all the same. Besides, I live in my brother's house..."
