Chapter 604: Chen's Native Restaurant
"Look at your eyes are going to grow on other people's bodies!" Sister-in-law Chen was still as domineering as ever, and Haozi and I looked at each other and smiled, as if we had found the past days together.
"I just looked at it that much. Lao Chen shrank his head and said aggrievedly.
"It's not good at a glance, can you not be shy when other girls are looked at by you like this!" Sister-in-law Chen said angrily.
"Sister-in-law Chen, let's just come over for a meal, and take a look at you by the way. "I stood up and said something to Lao Chen.
Lao Chen glanced at me gratefully, and Sister-in-law Chen was also a little relieved when she saw me say this.
"Yes, Sister-in-law Chen, Brother Chen hasn't seen me, so he took a second look. ”
Xiaohui has always been a sensible girl, so she also came out to help talk at this time.
"This time, the couple didn't say anything, forget it, next time I'll pick your skin. Sister-in-law Chen exhaled and said.
Lao Chen dared to refute this time, so he hurriedly agreed.
"Come on in, it's not our way of being out of the house. Sister-in-law Chen smiled and welcomed us in.
The inside is still the same, the decoration is not very good, there are a few tables and chairs, an old black fan, and a few old blackened pictures still hanging on the wall.
Sister-in-law Chen took out a rag from her apron pocket and cleaned up a wine table for us, which can actually make six people, of course, this is still in the case of adding seats.
"Come on, come on, sit down, it's a little dirty in the shop, but I'm forcing you. Sister-in-law Chen said with some guilt.
"Where, it feels good, the taste of shallots and garlic on this nose is quite comfortable. Haozi said.
"I'm relieved when you say that, what do you want to eat?"
"Remember. ”
"Okay, I'll do it for you. ”
As soon as the words fell, Sister-in-law Chen turned around and walked away. It didn't take long for the sound of iron pots churning and spoons colliding in front of me
I looked at the other empty seats in the store and sighed.
I whispered to Haozi, "Haozi, look at the business of the old Chen family. ”
Haozi smiled helplessly and said, "Which family can still have a trough." ”
At this moment, Sister-in-law Chen took the boiling kettle and served tea to the three of us.
Tea is general boiled water, and there are no tea leaves in it.
"You drink the water first, and I'll go to the front and give him a hand. ”
Seeing that a few of us nodded, Sister-in-law Chen went to Lao Chen's place.
Haozi lowered his head and smacked his saliva and said, "What are the plans of the two of you in the future, get married?"
"I'm not ready. At this time, Xiaohui said first.
"I still need to prepare for this! I feel that Lhotse can make you obey with just those three words. ”
"Half a year has passed, let's wait for Xiaohui to recover for a while. You don't want to think about what kind of life you can have in the Pan family. I said.
"That's right, the Pan family is simply a kidnapper, brute!" Haozi scolded.
I looked at Xiaohui and asked, "Xiaohui, did the Pan family bully you, if someone bullies you, you tell me now, I'll go and clean them up!"
"No one bullied me, and I lived in a deep mansion compound in my room every day. Xiaohui smiled.
But I can see that Xiaohui's smile is a bit far-fetched, seeing that she is so relaxed, it is not. I still know what Xiaohui's status is in the Pan family, and Pan Ying was still jealous of Xiaohui before, so I can imagine what kind of life Xiaohui is living.
"What do you say, I don't know what the urine sex of those people in the Pan family is?" Haozi said with a frown.
"It's really fine. Xiaohui shook her head and said.
Haozi has no good impression of the Pan family, and it is difficult to correct what he identified. And Xiaohui has been in the Pan family for so many years, and there is also a little emotion in it, and if it continues like this, there will inevitably be some disputes, thinking of this, I quickly changed the topic and said to Xiaohui: "Xiaohui, where did you change your clothes before?"
Xiaohui looked at me and smiled playfully and said, "Guess what." ”
I rolled my eyes and said, "How can I guess this, it's in the mall?"
"I chose it at random in a shop on the street, and I just wanted to change the wedding dress. ”
"It's also very beautiful to choose casually, and it deserves to be my good Xiaohui. I teased.
Xiaohui pursed her lips and gently pushed my shoulder, and I laughed.
After a while, Sister-in-law Chen had already brought two cooked dishes, and the fragrance of the dishes suddenly became permeated, I took a deep breath, I haven't smelled the fragrance of this dish for more than half a year, and it smelled really a little greedy to me.
"I'll help you turn on the TV, I heard that something big happened today. "After Sister-in-law Chen put down the plate, she turned on the TV above the corner for us.
Sister-in-law Chen helped us switch to the local news channel in Shashi, and a familiar place for the three of us instantly appeared on the screen.
"It's not...," Haozi said in a deep voice at this time.
At this time, the scene of the Pan family's wedding was playing on the TV, and it was a charred appearance after the fire, and the grass that was originally green had long since turned into black and scorched earth. Actually, there are sprinklers in the meadow, but they threw it at the beginning*, which is not something that can be extinguished by simply watering.
"Such a large piece of land is burning, and it is really easy to catch fire when autumn comes. Sister-in-law Chen said in surprise.
"Sister-in-law Chen, your family should also pay attention. I said with some humility.
I was so surprised when I saw Sister-in-law Chen, and I thought to myself, in fact, you didn't know that we came from this land.
"You said our family, where do we need to worry about any fire, there is a fire in front of our house every day. Sister-in-law Chen smiled heartily.
I was stunned for a moment, and then I remembered that Lao Chen was cooking the dishes at the door of the restaurant, and when I thought about it, it was really a fire every day.
After Sister-in-law Chen finished speaking, she continued to go to the front to help, and a few of us were also a little concerned about what was said on the TV, so we didn't say anything, and our attention was on the TV.
According to the fire brigade, the cause of the fire accident is still under investigation, but fortunately, there are no casualties at the scene. The female announcer on the TV said.
"Are there really no casualties?" asked Haozi at this time.
I smacked my lips and said, "You also believe what the news says, but a lot of people have died." ”
Xiaohui's eyes suddenly fell on me, and when I thought about it, Xiaohui didn't seem to know those things, so I quickly explained: "They are all gangsters, and they want to take the Pan family and the Luo family away, and they seem to have taken a fancy to them." ”
Xiaohui was relieved and said, "I was scared to death, I thought something had happened to those guests." ”
"Not really. ”
A few of us watched it on, and the TV was full of aerial footage from the TV station, and the black smoke was still on the scorched earth, and the firefighters had not left, and if the wind was not right, it would probably cause another fire.
At this time, Wang Wei's figure suddenly appeared in front of the TV, and said to the camera: "This fire cannot be ruled out as man-made, we have not forgotten the tragic scene that happened in the commercial area a week ago, if it is still caused by gangsters, we hope that the general public and friends can provide clues to assist the police in solving the case." ”
I frowned, how could this guy still be on TV, I thought he would be fired now.
The previous big commotion between the Skull Gang and the Pan family was actually enough for these officials to drop their black gauze hats one by one, but these people all kept their back roads, so they didn't leave their jobs.
"This man seems to be the city clerk. Haozi said.
"His name is Wang Wei, and he is indeed the secretary you said. "I took a small sip of tea, and it was still quite hot.
"You know?"
"Well, this guy isn't a good thing. I said dismissively.
"Tsk, I used to think he had a good reputation. ”
"Which of the officials is not a cunning rabbit, and they all have a way back for themselves. ”
"If I were an official, I would definitely send all the money down, and who would put it in my pocket. ”
I couldn't help but laugh out loud when I heard this.
"Why, don't you think I'm so righteous and selfless?" Haozi said with a raised eyebrow.
"Wait until you become an official. ”
At this time, Sister-in-law Chen came up with the dishes again, and Lao Chen personally brought us a case of beer.
"Eat and drink well today, don't go out and say I didn't entertain you well. "Lao Chen opened a bottle for me and Haozi and put it on the table.
"Brother and sister want to drink a bottle?" asked Lao Chen.
Xiaohui shook her head with a smile and said, "I don't drink." ”
"It's a pity that my brother and sister don't drink. "Lao Chen sat down at our table.
Sister-in-law Chen's face changed when she heard Lao Chen's words, and Haozi and I showed gloating expressions at the same time.
Sure enough, Lao Chen was pulled up by Sister-in-law Chen within a second of sitting down.
"You don't do business, you still want to drink, you don't know what you look like when you drink?" Sister-in-law Chen shouted into Lao Chen's ear.
"Isn't there no one today? And Zhang Luo, Yang Hao, and his younger siblings are all here, wouldn't it be a pity if we didn't have a drink?"
"Sister-in-law Chen, sit down and have a drink, although Xiaohui can't drink it, but I can accompany you, and how many bottles you drink will be counted on us!" I laughed.
Sister-in-law Chen smiled at me, and said to Lao Chen beside her with disgust: "You see that people are good at talking, and you can't leave your younger siblings in half a sentence." ”
"Isn't this the first time I've seen such a beautiful brother and sister? "Lao Chen is a real person, but although these words are true, they also make Xiaohui next to me blush.
"Come on, come on, sit down and eat. I hurriedly beckoned the Chen couple to sit down.
Mr. and Mrs. Chen were not polite, and sat down to ask about our recent events as if they were all at home.
Haozi and I glanced at each other, and the two of us had already had a statement, so it was also a set of words, in fact, it was just a repetition of what I said to my parents before.
