The fish was not large, slightly larger than the palm of an adult's hand, but its body was narrow, and it was one of the few flat fish in the creek. This fish not only has fewer bones, but the meat quality is much smoother than that of ordinary crucian carp and carp, so the old dean is satisfied.

The little boy carried the flat fish in the bucket, and the old dean took all the fishing gear, and the old and the young began to walk in the direction of the house along the mountain path.

"Have you ever eaten flat fish?" asked the old dean on the way, and he noticed that the little boy had been looking down at the fish in the bucket, and his face was full of novelty.

The little boy found that the flat fish in the bucket was only as wide as a finger's back, but when it was flattened, it was the size of one of his faces, and the small, pointed head and its whole body were also very asymmetrical.

Hearing the old dean's question, the little boy raised his head and replied, "I have never eaten such a fish, and this is the first time I have seen this kind of fish." ”

The old dean couldn't help but feel even more proud, the crucian carp and carp boy should have eaten, and he remembered that he once asked the staff of the welfare institute to buy them. But the price of flatfish is more expensive than that, and the orphanage does not have that much money for the children to eat this good thing. I caught a flat fish today, so I can entertain my little guests.

When the two of them returned home, the old dean turned on the TV for the little boy, and he quickly went into the kitchen, and the little boy had to eat lunch earlier.

Although the old dean is not a good cook, it still tastes good when he makes home-cooked food, especially when all the ingredients are fresh enough and green and pollution-free, even ordinary dishes will be very delicious.

After about half an hour, the old dean was served on the table one after another, and he fried a carrot, a cabbage, and scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and finally the steamed flat fish.

The flat fish that grew up in the stream water, adding too many condiments will ruin its deliciousness, so the old dean just used the simplest steaming method, he put some ginger and garlic on the belly and surface of the fish, sprinkled some green onions when it was about to be steamed, and finally poured a dish of soy sauce on it.

The old dean smelled the tempting aroma of the flatfish on the plate, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and he thought that the little boy would definitely love this dish very much.

The place to eat is in a separate room, which is the advantage of a rural house, you can build multiple floors to separate several rooms at your own will, unlike suites in the city, where most dining rooms and living rooms are in the same space.

The little boy was called by the old dean, and perhaps he was indeed a little hungry, but the little boy quickly turned off the television and sat down at the table in a proper manner. Four dishes were enough for two people to eat a meal, and the old dean filled the little boy with a bowl full of rice, and said, "Eat quickly." ”

If he had made such a large table of dishes for himself in the past, the old dean would have had to drink a little wine, but it would not be convenient to have a little boy present today.

The old dean got up and walked to a corner of the dining room, where there was an old-fashioned record player with a vinyl record that the old dean had treasured for many years. These old deans are used to eating alone, so they like to listen to their favorite songs while eating, and even though they can't drink today, they still have to listen to the songs.

The vinyl record slowly turned, and the old dean moved the probe to the record, and the sound of age came out of the record player.

This is a classic song published in the thirties and forties "The Full Moon is Good", sung by Zhou Xuan, a singer who was once a smash hit in SH, if calculated according to the release time of the song, even the old dean was not born when this song was sung.

Vinyl records are recording equipment that can restore the human voice to the greatest extent, unlike today's music players that have been digitalized, which is why the old dean has loved vinyl records for so many years.

Soon, a sound almost comparable to the live effect sounded in the restaurant, and the whirling voice was very unique, and it sounded like an old movie.

"The clouds are gone, the bright moon shines on the people, the reunion is happy, the present day is drunk, the shallow pond, the mandarin ducks play in the water, the red clothes are covered with green, and the lotus is open..."

The old dean sat back down at the table, he put a mouthful of fish meat in his mouth, closed his eyes very comfortably and tasted it slowly, he couldn't tell whether he was tasting the deliciousness of the fish in his mouth or appreciating the beautiful singing in his ears, or both. The old dean sighed in satisfaction, he felt that there was nothing better in the world...

After a while, the old dean finally opened his eyes from the enjoyment, and he asked, "What do you think of the taste of this fish?" Although he was very satisfied, he was still not sure whether the little boy liked it or not, so he quickly asked after tasting it.

The boy held the bowl in front of him and nodded, but did not say anything, but ate the dishes that the old dean had cooked for him one bite after another.

Could it be that I am not used to my taste, or is it because it is so delicious that I only remember to eat the food? The old dean was not sure what the boy's reaction meant, but at least the food he made would not be unpleasant, so he stopped asking him.

There is a very warm atmosphere in the restaurant, with soft songs, fragrant dishes, and scenes of old and young people stuttering food. The old dean tasted the delicious food, and at the same time savored the sounds that had passed, and he felt that he would never get tired of listening to songs like "The Full Moon is Good" a hundred times. Its lyrics are beautiful like a poem, and this kind of elaboration can no longer be seen in today's pop songs, so it will become a classic that will be passed down forever.

Zhou Xuan would never have thought that sixty years after her death, her singing voice could still be heard by people like me, the old dean suddenly had such a thought in his heart, he turned his head to look at the little boy beside him, the old dean found that the little boy had been eating very quietly since he sat at the table, but he was not so lively when fishing, and he couldn't help but feel strange.

This lunch was almost over after all the ten songs on vinyl were played, and the old dean found that the four dishes were almost eaten by them, and it seemed that although the boy didn't say anything, he really liked the dishes he cooked.

The boy, who had been silent, gently put down the chopsticks in his hand, and he finally said at this time, "Dean, can you be my father?"
