Chapter 157: Eating Fish Hot Pot with Friends
Yan Jiawan smiled and said:
"What else? My Uncle Schuck's place, I'll call him and explain. Besides, when he called me before, he was still out running errands. If I don't go to a hotel near the airport, he doesn't have to rush there......
Li Xinke listened, smiled happily, stretched out his hand and made an OK gesture, and said:
"Okay, then I'll go with you to eat fish hot pot. ”
Li Xinke followed behind Yan Jia and walked out of the bookstore with him.
Yan Jia took out an umbrella from her backpack, held it for Li Xinke, and took her to a hotel by the river.
Walking into the hotel's restaurant, Li Xinke asked Yan Jiadao softly:
"Is the aunt who sent us here still in the parking lot? Would you like to invite her to come along?"
Yan Jia smiled slightly and said:
"She had already called me and told me that at noon, she was going to have dinner with one of her friends. ”
In the past, when Yan Jia and Shu Yuan were here in Yu City, they also invited Shu Yuan's father's friends to dine at the hotel together.
However, their elders can always find some reasons to refuse.
It's not that I'm going to ask my friends to eat with me for a while, that is, I'm worried that they and Yan Jia will sit down to eat together, which will invisibly bring some pressure to these young people.
After Yan Jia took him and Li Xinke into the private room with the waiter, he told Li Xinke what he thought truthfully.
"I don't think it's a big deal, whether it's eating with my elders or with my friends, I can do it as I usually do at home, and I don't feel constrained. However, my brother Yuan and cousin Shu Yao are a little different from me......"
As soon as Li Xinke heard Yan Jia say this, he nodded in agreement and said:
"Before I went to Yili Middle School, one day, Lin Nuo and Shu Yao invited us to dinner at the hotel. I remember that Shu Yao was so silent, sitting at the dining table, almost didn't like to talk. Later, after hearing what you said, I learned about them......"
"What now?" Yan Jia smiled lightly and asked Li Xinke:
"You have been in the same class as Shu Yao for several days, you should know that he has become more cheerful now, right?"
"It's not that it's cheerful, it's so cheerful. Li Xinke bent his eyes and smiled, looked at Yan Jia, and said:
Shu Yao was not only less silent, but also always joking with Qiao Tiantian. Either he made Qiao Tiantian angry, or he would make Qiao Tiantian cry and laugh. However, Shu Yao did not get into the top five in the whole grade in this monthly exam in November, and he is no longer in class 6......"
Hearing this, Yan Jia felt worried about Shu Yao in his heart.
His cousin, Shu Yao, is a very self-motivated boy.
Sometimes, Shu Yao called him, and he would also say to him on the phone, "Brother Jiajia, my exam is so dangerous." If you have a little less points, you will be placed one place further down. If it goes down, it won't be able to meet my grandfather's requirements for us......"
The latter words, although Shu Yao did not say them on the phone. However, Yan Jia could know what Shu Yao was trying to say.
Shu Yao's grandfather, Yun Dong's requirement for them is that they must be in the top five in the whole grade before they can stay in the key class to study. If you can't pass the test, you will consciously give up your position.
No, he said that Shu Yao hadn't called him for several days.
Listening to Li Xinke talk about this, he knew that Shu Yao didn't do well in the exam.
Yan Jia thought for a moment, then took out his mobile phone and told Li Xinke, "Wait a minute, I'll call Shu Yao." Look at what he's doing. ”
Li Xinke nodded knowingly and said:
"Okay. ”
Yan Jia took the mobile phone and quickly dialed Shu Yao's mobile phone number.
In normal times, Shu Yao can't bring his mobile phone to Yili Middle School. But Shu Yao's parents said that Shu Yao was allowed to use his mobile phone on weekends.
Yan Jia called Shu Yao, and a voice prompt came:
"The phone you made is turned off......
Yan Jia's eyes flashed a hint of gloom, so he went to the living room of Shu Yao's house to call, and after the phone rang a few times, someone answered.
"Hey, hello. Excuse me......"
Shu Yao's mother's voice came from the phone.
Yan Jia listened, smiled and said:
"Hello, Auntie, I'm Yan Jia. ”
"I heard it, I heard it. It's Jiajia. Your uncle said that you checked in at the Yili Hotel last night. But you, the kid, have come to Yili County, and you won't say to call us......"
Shu Yao's mother said on the phone.
"When I arrived in Yili County, it was already night, so I didn't call," Yan Jia explained on the phone......
"Where are you now?" Your uncle also said that we will all go to the hotel near the airport in a while so that we can have lunch with you. ”
Shu Yao's mother said.
When Yan Jia heard this, his eyes couldn't help but pass through a trace of embarrassment.
He had just eaten, and he was going to eat again.
However, it was difficult to resist the enthusiasm, so I had to smile and say:
"I'm already in the downtown area of Yushi at this time. Then wait a while, let's go to the hotel near the airport for dinner. Remember to tell Brother Shu Yao and let him come with you. ”
"Jiajia, as soon as you mention your brother Shu Yao, my heart is panicked. Shu Yao's mother said on the phone:
"Do you know? He actually got the eighth place in the monthly exam this time, and I was also trained by my parents. ”
Speaking of this, Shu Yao's mother couldn't help but sigh, "Alas. ”
Yan Jia heard this, and was about to comfort his Aunt Shu. Aunt Shu's words came from the phone again.
"My dad said that I only knew how to use Yaoyao and didn't teach him how to cherish time to study. Said I also allowed him to go to a concert on the weekend. Isn't this just a delay in Yaoyao's study time?"
Yan Jia said softly:
"Auntie, Shu Yao went to Jincheng to watch the concert, didn't Lin Nuo go too? You see, let's go to a concert and relax once in a while, it's nothing. ”
"Yes, you went, but you have already been admitted to a prestigious university, which is nothing. Shu Yao's mother said on the phone:
"Lin Nuo also went, but he was still the first in the whole grade, and Nuo Nuo had such good results, my father would definitely not criticize him. However, my family Yaoyao, he didn't do well in the exam......"
"Auntie, Brother Yaoyao only failed the exam once, so don't blame him. You have to believe my brother Yaoyao, he is such a smart person, he will definitely be able to do better in the future. ”
Yan Jia said on the phone:
"So, Auntie, let's take Brother Yao out to play. If you don't agree, I'll go back to Yili County to pick him up......"
"Haha, Jiajia, if you are willing to come over, I am afraid that you will come to our house last night. Well, for your sake, I'll give that unlucky kid a half-day vacation today. ”
Shu Yao's mother said on the phone:
"Jiajia, then you should go to the hotel early. I'll take Yaoyao to you in a moment......"
"Okay, Auntie. Yan Jia said happily:
"By the way, you can help talk to Lin Nuo and his parents, if you have time, come over together." ”
"yes, yes. Shu Yao's mother replied on the phone.
With that, he hung up the phone.
