Dinner four dishes and one soup, three adults, one child, not too many dishes, but also a lot, mainly at home, can be put in the refrigerator if you can't finish eating, and the food will not spoil in one night.

The four of them sat down in three parties, Yan Xiwen sat in the seat facing the TV on the right side of the door, Dong's mother Ruan Ling held her grandson (actually a grandson, but Dong Hongxia's parents had no children, so they were regarded as their own grandson) sat on Yan Xiwen's right hand, and Dong Hongxia sat on the left-hand side.

"Come, try this, grilled river crucian carp with green onions, I specially picked one or two dishes that outsiders like to eat. Dong Hongxia had already taken off the home apron at this time, her upper body was still simple black and white striped short sleeves, and her lower body was also changed into a looser home pants, and she stretched out her hand to introduce a dish on the table to Yan Xiwen.

In the car all the way over, Yan Xiwen had already thought clearly, the focus of this meal was not on eating, but on Sister Dong's house, knowing his family and letting her family know herself. Therefore, although he doesn't like to eat Ningbo's special food, he is ready to swallow the food no matter how unpalatable it is.

But the four dishes on the table, grilled river crucian carp with green onions, braised Wangchao, shrimp with skin and shrimp, steamed razor clams (cheng), and a tomato and egg soup, these dishes, not to mention are her favorites, but at least they can be eaten, and she has eaten them in normal times, how did she know that I like to eat these dishes? Yan Xiwen obviously forgot that their first pleasant exchange took place there. As long as you pay a little attention to the wine table, you can know what he likes to eat and what he doesn't like to eat, and he is as smart as Dong Hongxia, so he is naturally prepared.

Among them, the braised tide is only heard and never eaten. The other three dishes are all easy to recognize, only the braised wangchao is more difficult to identify. Wangchao's tentacles look very similar to tripe, with suction cups, very similar to octopus, but the reason why Yan Xiwen can recognize it is because it has been on the second part of "A Bite of China", "Wangchao's meat is crispy and elastic, and it is the most popular household dish for fishermen in the East China Sea." He has been in the NB area for more than a year, and he has never seen this dish, he used to work in RFY company and eat with colleagues in canteens and restaurants, but he has never seen it, and he doesn't want to see it here.

River crucian carp is also one of the few dishes he used to eat in NB, because grilled river crucian carp with green onions is also a more flavorful dish, which meets the taste of most people. Of course, this time is different from the past, now Yan Xiwen eats, either he asks Bao Yujing to cook at home, or he goes out to find Sichuan restaurants, Hunan restaurants, ZQ restaurants, and rarely eats some NB specialties. Generally, the hotel is not expensive, and it is acceptable for two people to spend less than 500 yuan.

"It's tender and flavorful, unlike some local practices, it's very crispy, and that's not delicious. Yan Xiwen exclaimed.

"Xiao Yan, you are not from NB, where is your home?" Dong's mother pretended not to recognize Yan Xiwen's identity as a foreigner, if it was a local, she would have already said "XXX" NB on her face. Yan Xiwen didn't say a word of local dialect when he entered the door, and even Dong Hongxia and Dong's mother only smiled on the side when they communicated in NB dialect, and didn't understand, couldn't the other party recognize that he was not an NB person?

Yan Xiwen's hand froze, and he swallowed a mouthful of food before he smiled: "I am from HN Province, LJ City, you must not have heard of it, and you don't know it." "His hometown changes every year, and he hasn't been to his hometown city for many years, not to mention other people, he himself can't recognize the current LJ city.

"Ao, haven't you really heard of it, is it close to Changsha?" Dong's mother continued to ask while feeding her grandson.

"It takes 2 or 3 hours by high-speed train, and 5 or 6 hours by ordinary train. "When Yan Xiwen was in college, it was difficult to get a direct ticket from WH back to his hometown, and he basically had to transfer from Changsha every Chinese New Year, so although he didn't know the specific distance, he had a clear memory of the train.

Dong Hongxia was eating on the side, looking at her son from time to time, watching TV from time to time, and listening to the conversation with her ears pricked up. Seeing that Yan Xiwen had a hard time coping, she interjected and asked, "Xiao Yan, do you want to go to the Great Northwest tour organized by the company?"

"Don't go, I've been busy lately, you can go!" Yan Xiwen moved to pick up vegetables, and he didn't dare to swing his arms out, quite careful, not wanting to attract attention.

"I can't rest assured, so I choose to rest at home. Dong Hongxia thought about the food in her mouth for a while, and her words were a little slurred.

Dong's mother immediately objected: "I'll help you take it, what's not to worry about, Ao, Ziqing, grandma takes you to play every day, we don't want my mother, okay?"

Xiao Ziqing was fascinated by watching TV, and he couldn't take his eyes off it, staring at the TV program with big eyes. I didn't know what the adults were going to say, but I didn't hear my grandmother's question, and I nodded violently like an adult, indicating that I understood!

Yan Xiwen is very happy to watch, this kid is so cute and cute watching TV, it's really fun and interesting!

Dong Hongxia insisted on her opinion: "It's tiring to travel, it's better to take the opportunity to rest at home for a while, and there are many people in the company who choose not to go." ”

Yan Xiwen knew that what Dong Hongxia said was the truth, when the plan was made, Yu Lang asked everyone in the plan to go, and if they didn't go, they would go to work normally. But what should the workers do when they go to work normally? If the factory does not work, they cannot work normally, so the technical department and the marketing department can consider continuing to work, but people can also consider traveling.

Anyway, the two ends are not pleased, Yan Xiwen waved his hand, and changed it to a choice of rest or free travel in the Great Northwest, and the cost of group travel is 6,800 yuan. The price of 6800 still attracts most people, only a small number of people really don't like the outdoors, or they are too tired to work and need to rest before choosing not to join the group.

Dong's mother bypassed her daughter's question and continued to ask: "Xiao Yan, what are you doing in your hometown?"

Yan Xiwen scratched his head a little, this question is really difficult to answer. In front of uninformed people, he must have said that his parents were doing business in their hometown, and the family was very rich to cover up the origin of his starting capital, but even Dong Hongxia was deceived by this answer. In the future, the two will always have exchanges in life, and it is not ruled out that Yan Xiwen may take her to see her family, of course, seeing her family does not necessarily talk about the past, but what if? If she knows, what will she think in her heart? Will she think that the man she has always relied on has been lying to her a long time ago?

"My parents are ordinary migrant workers, and I came out to start my own business to get to where I am today. After thinking about it, Yan Xiwen still decided to tell the truth. For some, he can lie without changing his face, explaining it as protecting himself. But in front of the woman he likes and has the possibility of further development, he can't deceive with peace of mind, although the purpose is still to protect himself. In fact, he also knows in his heart that doing so is tantamount to wrapping fire in paper, and sooner or later it will not be able to be contained, the important thing is the degree of recognition in his heart.

These backgrounds are not even clear to Dong Hongxia, she has limited communication with Yan Xiwen, and the longest time was in the bathroom, thinking about her, she blushed a little, why was she so bold that day. It sounds a bit like listening to a legend, the protagonist comes from an ordinary family, starts from scratch, and within a year becomes the majority shareholder of an established private company, owning 10% of his personal shares, and is also awarded the chairmanship of another co-funded company (OPM). It is said that this private company has a sale price of more than 700 million yuan, which is amazingly valuable!

Dong Hongxia bred a faint sense of worship in her heart, animals instinctively surrender to the strong, and humans are also primates, so naturally they can't escape this law. It's not against women, it's the same with men. When one person's abilities make another person fall behind in what he does best, he will have confidence in what you are doing and will be willing to listen to you. This is the most ideal state of "inner saint and outer king", but there are very few people who can do this in ancient times. People are always not good at it, but in some aspects, such as fame, status, family background, and money, if they can far surpass normal people by a thousand times, they will naturally gain the worship of the people around them.

Dong Hongxia cooks very quickly, it may be that she asked Dong's mother to deal with the ingredients first. When Yan Xiwen looked at his watch after eating, it was only 6:48. The time when he went upstairs was 6:15, only more than half an hour, he was embarrassed to leave immediately, Dong's mother brought him a glass of water, and Yan Xiwen chatted with the two women without a match. The main topic is the little Ziqing next to him, most of Yan Xiwen's past is not easy to say, as soon as he says it, he will be exposed, and making it up on the spot is not something he is good at, so he has to pull the topic up to Dongmu's grandson.

Xiao Ziqing didn't have any opinion on his uncle, but he also ignored him, Yan Xiwen guessed that he might have just watched TV, reacted, thought he was going to take his mother away, and got angry.

At 7 o'clock, Yan Xiwen looked at his watch frequently, gritted his teeth and said, "Sister Dong, it's a little late, 7 o'clock, I should go back." ”

Dong Hongxia was a little reluctant, but she still didn't keep it. Two women, no man at home, it is really not good to leave other men overnight, if the two are sure that the relationship is okay, it is not clear, Dong's mother will definitely not agree.

"Then I'll give it to you. Dong's mother had already gone to the kitchen to wash the dishes at this time, Dong Hongxia said a word to Dong's mother, and was ready to send Yan Xiwen downstairs.

"Xiao Ziqing, uncle is gone, goodbye!" Yan Xiwen waved at the child while putting on his shoes. Xiao Ziqing ignored him, pretending to be watching TV, and advertising was being shown on TV, "Good Time Seaweed ......".

"Ziqing, say goodbye to your uncle! Have you forgotten the politeness that your mother taught you?" Dong Hongxia's face turned cold, and she was not soft-hearted at all when she taught her son.

"Goodbye, uncle!" The soft children's voice, with a little bit of childishness, was a little crisp, and the boy Ziqing who was sitting on the sofa reluctantly turned his head and shouted to Yan Xiwen.

"Okay! goodbye!" Yan Xiwen was full of smiles, not knowing what he was thinking.

The two went downstairs together at 7:02 a.m.
