If you only look at the current formation schedule, Zhang Bufan is actually busier than Tong Liya this year.

Tong Liya's side, after completing the filming of "Outwitting Tiger Mountain", the next thing is the filming of "Langya Bang", which will start in mid-to-late February, and is expected to be completed in June and July.

And Zhang Bufan's side, in addition to the filming of "Outwitting Tiger Mountain" like Tong Liya, Tian Zhuangzhuang on the side of "Five Flavors of the World" is still waiting for him to be the director, and then there is Ning Hao's movie drinking Xu Zheng, as well as the release of "Tang Detective", in addition, Zhang Bufan also wants to shoot "Wushuang" within this year, if he really wants to do this, this year's time will be completely taken into it, which is not considered some other trivial things.

On this day, Tong Liya had already gone to Hengdian, and Zhang Bufan returned to the small restaurant alone, just standing in front of the door, looking up at the sign of "small restaurant" hanging on the door frame, speechless for a long time.

The small restaurant can no longer be opened, because some business licenses have expired, and now it will be an unlicensed black shop.

He didn't have the time and energy to open it, and now his itinerary can't even be done for ten days and half a month from time to time like in previous years.

Sighing slightly, in fact, Zhang Bufan is not as entangled as before.

Opening a small restaurant is actually not Zhang Bufan's hobby, but an obsession, a profession that wants to continue his parents' career back then.

And his real hobby, which is also the inheritance of their old Zhang family, has always been very simple, cooking, being a chef.

As a real chef, can you only cook in the kitchen of a restaurant? That must be nonsense, although he can't open a small restaurant now, but he has never left behind in cooking, for Tong Liya, for Tong's father and Tong's mother, for good friends, for fellow crew members......

Now he can cook more kinds of meals, and after being a cook for so many years, he is very sure that his cooking skills have improved a lot compared to a few years ago.

But......

Looking up at the sign that he had changed from a "health restaurant" to a "small restaurant" by himself, Zhang Bufan still couldn't help sighing, there were memories of his past and memories of his parents.

was stunned there, and suddenly a voice came from behind him, "Yo, isn't this Zhang Er?"

Zhang Bufan turned his head and saw an old man walking slowly over on crutches.

Acquaintances, home lives in this alley, not far away, and is also a regular customer of the small restaurant.

"It's been a while, Uncle Li, what are you doing here?" Zhang Bufan greeted with a smile, and memories of this uncle flashed in his mind, the last time they met seemed to be the year before last, and at that time, this old man didn't need crutches to walk.

"Just come out and walk casually, I'm ......" The old man stood still when he arrived, picked up the crutches in his hand and teased, "The year before last, I had a cerebral hemorrhage, and one leg couldn't move, and the doctor said that I had to exercise more to recover slowly, no, you just drove me out to exercise every day." ”

As he spoke, another voice came from behind him, "You bad old man, what are you arranging for me?"

The slightly chubby plus-size that came over was Uncle Li's wife, surnamed Zhao, and it was obvious that she was not worried that her husband would come out alone, so she followed behind.

Aunt Zhao arrived and greeted Zhang Bufan, "Zhang'er, I haven't seen you for a long time, I heard that you have become a big star now?"

Zhang Bufan waved his hand, "What a big star, it's just a mixed entertainment circle." ”

Aunt Zhao is very talkative, so let's talk, "Don't be modest, my Lao Li and I both saw you on TV, it was the Spring Festival Gala!"

Zhang Bufan smiled bitterly, of course he knew about it, but it was also an afterthought.

As for the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, he sat below as an audience, and actually appeared in the camera lens many times, once when Tong Liya performed the show, once when the audience counted down together, and once when everyone sang "Unforgettable Tonight" together at the end, which can be called the audience with the highest mirror rate in this CCTV Spring Festival Gala.

The most important thing is that when he sang "Unforgettable Tonight" at the end, the camera on the stage had just been given to Tong Liya, and the next one turned to him, which he didn't believe if it was not intentional.

He couldn't figure out why he just found him.

He didn't expect that when he followed Huang Bo to run around in the background, he accidentally fell into the eyes of some people in the director team of the Spring Festival Gala, so there was such a play.

Interestingly, he also won the title of "the luckiest audience" for this.

I haven't seen each other for a long time, and the three of them have chatted, talking about Uncle Li's illness and the sons of the two elders, and unconsciously, the topic came to the small restaurant.

"Zhang'er, is your small restaurant still open?" Uncle Li asked.

"I wanted to, but I didn't have time. Zhang Bufan smiled bitterly.

"It's a pity. Uncle Li shook his head, "Let's make Sichuan cuisine well, it belongs to your restaurant, your father's Mao Xuewang was a must, you are not bad, it's a pity!"

"Oh, what are you talking nonsense!" Aunt Zhao slapped her boss reproachfully, this bad old man, his parents have died, why do you mention this? My Lao Li especially likes to eat Sichuan food you make, when the restaurant is open, he has to come once every three or five days, even when I cook at home, he doesn't care, and then the restaurant is not open, he often sighs and says that he can't eat such delicious Sichuan food, I said I went to learn to make it for him to eat, he still doesn't look down on me, saying how can I do it compared with what you do? You talk about this bad old man. ”

Zhang Bufan was amused, and deliberately put on a straight face and said to Uncle Li: "Uncle Li, I'm going to criticize you, Aunt Zhao's cooking is delicious is recognized in our alley, every time you cook, there are children who come to your house to join you, do you forget? And think about it, if Aunt Zhao doesn't cook well, you eat a lot every time, can your body recover so quickly and so well?"

Uncle Li glanced at his wife next to him, and said with a stalk around his neck: "Then she is not as good at Sichuan cuisine as you." ”

Zhang Bufan and Aunt Zhao were both amused, old children and old children, they are talking about Uncle Li like this.

Zhang Bufan patted Uncle Li's hand on crutches and said: "Although the small restaurant may not open in the future, you can still eat the Sichuan food I make, aren't I still here?

"How can that work, that won't work......" Uncle Li waved his hand again and again.

Zhang Bufan said with a smile: "Then why not, it's not for you to eat for nothing, you still have to give money, and the price will come according to the previous one!"

After a few more pleasantries, the two old men finally left.

Zhang Bufan looked up at the "small restaurant" sign again, but his face was no longer entangled.

Yes, who said that the small restaurant is gone, as long as I am where Zhang Bufan is, there will be a small restaurant!
