Chapter 1: The Former Heavenly King
"Brother Yi, you must come back soon! Now a few little flowers and little students in the company can't hold up the situation at all, acting is facial paralysis, and singing has no feelings! Only those few faces can still be seen a little, the key is that they still have a big temper. ”
"Brother Yi, I beg you, come back quickly. Now the company is waiting for you, the king, to come back. ”
Facing the urgent plea of Lin Yi's agent Jiang Tao on the other end of the phone, Lin Yi's expression did not change much, and immediately responded, "Are you finished? I'll hang up first, don't call me next time if there's nothing to do." I'm going to cook for my wife. ”
After saying that, he hung up the phone, then lifted the pot in front of him again, closed his eyes and smelled the mist, then closed the pot, then turned around to cut the ribs, and then tossed them with the prepared ingredients
This set of skillful techniques makes people not doubt his identity as a family cook for many years.
"You must do something for me today, and we will have a valuable guest coming later. Lin Yi's brother-in-law, Tu Yuhao, came to the kitchen and looked at Lin Yi and ordered.
"I cook, don't worry. Lin Yi replied calmly.
"Hmph, that's how you cook. I still have to rely on my sister to feed you and eat the waste of soft rice. Tu Yuhao glanced at Lin Yi.
Lin Yi was silent, as the former king of the entertainment industry, he naturally has a lot of money and is never short of money. But just after he retired, the company's senior management had to cut off all his funds because they spent a lot of money to poach another king.
Now he has not come back, I am afraid that he will have to be a waste son-in-law who washes and cooks at home, after all, this is just a small fourth-tier county, and everyone is reluctant to go to the cinema to watch a movie, so how can they spend money to invite him, the king, to perform?
Just when Lin Yi's meal was ready, the "valuable guest" mentioned by Tu Yuhao finally came.
When Lin Yi went out with the food, he happened to see a family of three.
The middle-aged man led by him has a big belly, and there is a sense of calm and calm in his eyes, while the noble lady behind him is always looking at the environment. The last one was a young man who looked to be twenty-three or four-year-old, his eyes glanced at Lin Yi slightly, and then immediately moved away.
"Come on, come on, come on. Director Huang, sit down. Lin Yi's mother-in-law, Ma Xiaoni, entertained the family of three with a smile on her face, but when she turned her face to look at Lin Yi, she ordered coldly, "Why are you stunned? Go and pour a drink for Director Huang's family!"
"Who is this?" Director Huang looked at Lin Yi with some puzzlement, and then said with a smile; "Could it be your male nanny?"
Ma Xiaoni immediately turned to look at Director Huang with a smile on her face, showing a little disgust on her face, and said slowly, "Alas, how can our family afford to hire a nanny, this is our family's incapable son-in-law!"
Hearing this, Director Huang nodded thoughtfully, and after tasting a bite of Lin Yi's cooking, he said with a smile, "I have long heard that your son-in-law at home has no other skills, but this cooking ability is first-class!
While the two were talking and laughing, Lin Yi had already cooked a meal for them, and then Lin Yi looked at Ma Xiaoni and asked indifferently, "What about Yu Yan?"
"Yu Yan is working overtime today!" Ma Xiaoni replied angrily, glared at Lin Yi indifferently, and then threw herself into the conversation with Director Huang with great interest.
Lin Yi looked at the watch in his hand, and then broke down the door without taking a bite of food.
"What is he doing here, why doesn't he say hello to you?" asked the lady next to Director Huang in surprise.
"What are you doing with him!Our family Yuyan married such a waste, it is really my last life's bad luck, and I didn't enjoy any happiness in my old age, so I still have to suffer from this waste!" Ma Xiaoni said, tears in her eyes.
Ma Xiaoni was in such a mood, and Director Huang also put down the chopsticks that had not stopped, and sighed; "Alas, it's a pity for Yuyan." ”
"I asked her to marry Mr. Li's son, but she refused, even if she didn't, she had to marry someone with a house and a car, not to mention that she would have no worries for the rest of her life, and she could also let our family enjoy happiness, and she could also take care of Yuhao to some extent..."
If Lin Yi knew that this old woman was talking bad about him at home, he would definitely be glad that she came out in time at this time. But he didn't have time to rejoice now, riding a small electric donkey, he came to Tu Yuyan's school in about twenty minutes.
This is a county private junior high school, Tu Yuyan has been working as a music teacher here since graduating from university, the salary is not high, but in this small county can also support a family, and the job is decent.
Night had fallen, and the lights stretched Lin Yi's shadow on the side of the road.
After waiting for half an hour in the cold wind, the figure of Tu Yuyan finally appeared in Lin Yi's sight, and in the cold wind, she bloomed in front of Lin Yi's eyes like a plum blossom.
"Why are you here?" Tu Yuyan said in surprise as she looked at Lin Yi.
"Why do you have to work overtime today? Didn't the students all go home from school?" Lin Yi asked Tu Yuyan rhetorically.
Tu Yuyan's face was a little ugly, and after taking a few steps forward, she finally said to Lin Yi, "Let's go back first." ”
Lin Yi didn't ask any more, riding a small electric donkey is a set of skilled operations.
After returning home, Director Huang's family still didn't leave, and their buttocks seemed to be glued to the stool exactly the same as when Lin Yi left home. Lin Yi glanced at it and found that the dishes on the table were still destroyed, and there was not even a green onion left.
"Yu Yan is back, have you eaten?" Ma Xiaoni asked pretending to be concerned, and then glanced at Lin Yi, "It just so happens that Director Huang's family hasn't eaten yet, so you can do some more." ”
Hearing this, Lin Yi's face twitched slightly, so many vegetables and such a big bucket of rice are not full, do you eat pig feed when you eat at home?
"What do you want to eat?" Lin Yi asked as he looked at Tu Yuyan.
"Whatever. Tu Yuyan replied absentmindedly, and then said hello to Director Huang's family, and was pulled by Ma Xiaoni to entertain Director Huang.
Lin Yi took out the prepared potatoes and pork, which were Yu Yan's favorite dishes.
"Yu Yan, this is Director Huang's son, Huang Jue, he has the ability, he is now studying acting in Changsha, and he has been asked by some director of Hunan Satellite TV to shoot a TV series, maybe he will be our big star in the future!"
Then there was a faint male voice, and then Ma Xiaoni suddenly realized, "Yes, yes, it's Director Shen Yi!"
Hearing this name, Lin Yi couldn't help but shake his head. This is a bad movie director rumored in the industry, this director is used by Hunan Satellite TV to make up the numbers, and his films are just used by Hunan Satellite TV to cushion the bench.
Ten minutes later, the group of people in the living room had a lot of discussions.
Tu Yuyan was still uneasy, and that Huang Jue's little eyes had been secretly looking at Tu Yuyan, and when she saw Lin Yi coming with food, there was a little disgust and resentment in her eyes.
"Hey, if only I were my son-in-law, it would be nice to have half of Huang Jue. Then I won't be angry all the time, and I'm worried about what I will do for the rest of my life. Ma Xiaoni glanced at Lin Yi and continued to complain.
Hearing this, Huang raised his head triumphantly, glanced at Tu Yuyan and then glanced at Lin Yi arrogantly.
Lin Yi didn't respond, compared to the personal attacks of countless trolls and keyboard warriors, Ma Xiaoni's blow and damage were simply painless and itchy.
"How do I feel that you are a bit like the big star you used to be, Lin Yi!" The noble lady who had not spoken much suddenly stared at Lin Yi and said.
Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly, "Many people say so. ”
Lin Yi was speechless in his heart, in fact, he was Lin Yi! Lin Yi was his stage name. However, his current slightly obese figure and sloppy face with a beard really can't be compared with the glamorous time before.
"I still have a lot of people in school who say that I look like 'Li Junjie'. Huang Jue responded disappreciably, and raised his eyes to stare at Lin Yi.
After hearing Li Junjie, Lin Yi subconsciously said, "You are far worse than him." Li Junjie is one of the few close friends of Lin Yi in the circle.
Hearing this, Huang Jue's smug expression gradually disappeared, and the group of people who were chatting happily also quieted down.
Ma Xiaoni slapped the table and stood up suddenly, pointed at Lin Yi's nose and scolded, "What are you bastards talking about? Huang Jue is an actor who was selected by the director of Hunan Satellite TV, but what happened to the star of tomorrow who looks like Li Junjie? Maybe people will be more powerful than Li Junjie in the future?" That posture, people who don't know still think that Lin Yi sent her son to the hospital.
Lin Yi was speechless, glanced at Huang Jue, and then said, "Li Junjie has already written songs that are popular all over the country at your age." Leaving this sentence, Lin Yi went back to the room.
After that, Lin Yi heard a few courteous apologies and a few angry polite words in the room, and then the living room fell into a short silence...
A few minutes later, Ma Xiaoni began to complain in the living room again, her usual practice was to first complain to God why she tortured herself so much, and then complained about why Tu Yuyan married Lin Yi such a useless waste...
After complaining for a moment, Tu Yuyan returned to the room with a cold face.
Lin Yi looked at her, and Tu Yuyan also looked at Lin Yi, looking at each other.
"You should know that I married you because you were very rich, and then my dad got sick, and it was because of you that my dad could have surgery... Even though we've been married for so long, you never force me to do something I don't want to do... Then you ran out of money, and I didn't complain because I felt like I owed you... But..."Speaking of the back, tears had already fallen from Tu Yuyan's face.
Lin Yi didn't speak, just listened quietly.
Tu Yuyan wiped away her tears, and tried her best to calm her mood, then looked directly at Lin Yi and said, "What I want to say is..."
