Chapter 20: Dreams
In the evening, Fang Jing set up a barbecue grill on the deck to eat barbecue.
When he went to college, it was the most difficult time for the family, in order to reduce the burden on the family, he began to work part-time, and went to work at the barbecue restaurant at the entrance of the school at night, and the boss's barbecue skills also learned two points, especially the charcoal-grilled oysters, sprinkled with minced garlic, grilled out of the oil, fragrant, with cold beer, it is really delicious.
A group of foodies ate without raising their heads, and they were so addicted that even Xie Jingtong, who has always loved beauty and paid attention to his figure, couldn't hold back and ate several in one go.
"It's over, the weight I lost with great difficulty, I stayed here for two days and grew back."
"Great, since you have lost weight, then give me your share, I'll help you eat, I'm not afraid of getting fat." Zhu Zhi immediately made a move like lightning, sandwiched the grilled oysters on her plate that she didn't have time to eat, and lowered her head for a moment.
He's eaten it all, and of course no one else will touch it again.
"You're disgusting." Xie Jingtong watched the delicious food fly away, half complaining and half relieved, so that she didn't have to worry about whether to satisfy her appetite or lose weight.
"I really can't imagine that after so many years, Xiao Jingzi's craftsmanship has not fallen." Zhu Zhi was satisfied, and he became worried, "What if you can't eat such delicious seafood when you go back?" ”
"You're hungry." Xie Jingtong glared at him and said angrily.
Chen Siming thought thoughtfully: "If you don't let your dad invest in opening a restaurant or something, it's not bad to specialize in selling seafood." ”
Zhu Zhi's family background is the best among everyone, and his father has a small mine, which is commonly known as the coal boss, and he is not bad for money.
"That's a good idea." Zhu Zhi nodded frequently, "Just sell seafood, and Xiao Jingzi will supply it to me." ”
"Xiao Jingzi is the head chef, and we come to cheer every day."
A group of people laughed and joked, and they didn't return until eight o'clock, if it wasn't for the lack of fuel they were worried about, Zhu Zhi and they would even want to live on the boat.
Because it was already late, everyone drank some wine, and Fang Jing didn't let them go back to the town, and went to the village to find an acquaintance to spend the night.
At the beginning, Fang's father was the first to buy a big boat and go to the ocean to make money, and many young and middle-aged people in the village later followed Fang's father out to fish, and their families were wealthy. Just as people in the city have to tighten their pockets to buy a house no matter how they grit their teeth, as if they don't have a house and don't have a sense of security, people in fishing villages like to toss houses when they have money.
The houses in Dongzhuang are almost all newly built later, a small western-style building with a water, and their own yards are cleaned up, as long as they are replaced with clean sheets and pillowcases, they are much cleaner than the hotels in the town.
Even girls like Xie Jingtong are not picky about anything, but feel that such a small yard full of farmhouse style has an indescribable taste.
Finally settled the person, Fang Jing was so tired that he couldn't lift his legs, Cen Jiu walked up to him and squatted down.
"What are you doing here?" Fang Jing was taken aback.
"Carry you back."
"No, it's not that tired." Fang Jing hurriedly refused.
Just a few steps, you can climb to climb, where you are so squeamish that you can't walk, and you have to be carried on your back.
I didn't dare to shout that I was tired or anything, and I hurried back home with Cen Jiu, but when I saw that in addition to Chen Siming's car outside my yard, there was also a car with a Jingcheng license plate, and Fang Jing's eyebrows immediately wrinkled.
It was Second Uncle Fang's car, to be precise, the car that Fang's father paid for Second Uncle Fang back then.
When Fang's father was developed, he helped this brother a lot, not only built a small building for Second Uncle Fang in the village, but also bought a house of nearly 200 square meters for Second Uncle Fang's family in the city and equipped it with a car.
But that's it, later, when Fang's father had an accident and a boatload of people died, and the family of the deceased came to the door to ask for compensation, Fang's father sold all the houses, cars, and fishing boats, and Fang's mother used all her jewelry, but she still didn't have enough money, and when Fang's mother went to borrow money from Second Uncle Fang, what did Second Uncle Fang say.
"My brother has helped a lot, but my brother also has to settle accounts, Binbin is about to go to school, and my money must be kept for him to go to school and marry his daughter-in-law, and he can't borrow it."
Not only that, Second Uncle Fang also hid from Fang's father and Fang's mother, and sold the building in the village to a migrant worker in another village at a low price without saying a word, and the family moved to the city to live, and he didn't see him back during the New Year's holidays, for fear that Fang's father's family would drag him down.
Fang Jing has always disliked this second uncle very much, he is too snobbish and ruthless.
Fang's mother was still cleaning up the yard, and when she saw him come back, she yawned.
"You're back, what about your classmates?"
"Arrange for them to sleep at the house of the third uncle and the second brother." Fang Jingyi frowned, "Second Uncle is here?" ”
"No, I came in the afternoon, and I waited until I was looking for you something." Fang's mother lowered her voice, "You have more snacks, but don't let him say anything, you agree, that family is not in a good mood." ”
"I know, you go and rest." Fang Jing responded.
Hearing the sound in the courtyard, Second Uncle Fang ran out of the hall with a pair of slippers, and pulled Fang Jingte and said affectionately: "Xiao Jingdu has grown so tall, Second Uncle hasn't seen you for a long time, and he has become a handsome guy in the blink of an eye." ”
"Second uncle." Fang Jing called out lightly.
He doesn't like Second Uncle Fang, and now the two families only have face love, if it weren't for Father Fang's face, he wouldn't even shout this Second Uncle.
Second Uncle Fang didn't realize it, looked behind him frequently, and asked, "There are guests at home?" It's nice to have that car parked outside, more than a million. ”
Men like cars, and Second Uncle Fang also drives himself, or Santana, which he bought a few years ago, compared with the cars outside, they are all slag in seconds.
Such an expensive car is willing to run on dirt roads in the countryside, and it is not afraid of being scratched.
Those who can afford to drive more than a million cars are not poor.
Second Uncle Fang thought of the Fang family's newly installed air conditioner color TV, and his heart was full of life. At the beginning, I thought that Fang Jing was poor and generous, and he was fat with a swollen face, but now it seems that this eldest nephew seems to be mixing well outside and knows so many rich people.
"A few classmates are idle on the weekend, so they come to play for two days." Fang Jing yawned, unconcealing the tiredness on his face, "Second Uncle is still in trouble?" ”
If there is something, say it quickly, he will wash and sleep if he is fine.
Second Uncle Fang remembered the purpose of this time, and immediately changed his face and said, "It's okay, I just remembered that I haven't seen your father for a long time, so come back to see him." ”
"That's okay, it's not early, the second uncle will rest early, and I'll go to sleep too." Too lazy to guess why Second Uncle Fang came back, Fang Jing said a word, and took his clothes to the bathroom.
After a tired day, Fang Jing didn't even have the energy to check whether the few beads he touched today were real golden pearls, so after taking a bath, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep directly.
After falling asleep, he seemed to have a dream in a daze.
In the dream, he saw a group of people dressed in exotic clothes, who looked a bit like people from Southeast Asia, a person who wore gold and silver, and looked more status, said something to a group of people in the palace, and the people who listened were very excited, and you and I argued word by word.
As soon as the scene changed, a Siamese ship was moored in the lively port goods, boxes of exquisite gems, precious spices, and fine ebony were carried onto the ship one after another, and the person with status stood in the harbor to watch the Siamese ship carrying jewels sail away in the wind and waves.
Later, the picture became a storm, lightning and thunder, the turbulent waves wave after wave, the Siamese ship loaded with countless precious jewels and precious luxuries struggled in the waves, a lightning bolt struck the mast, the hull hit the reef, a big wave opened, the already damaged hull under the impact of the huge waves, staggered and sank little by little, and the people on board looked desperate.
In the midst of the chaos, chests full of treasure were knocked over, and round golden pearls rolled out.
……
Fang Jing opened his eyes suddenly, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he only heard his own violent heartbeat in the darkness.
He clutched his chest, and the moment he opened his eyes, he suddenly understood.
It was a tribute ship that sailed from a foreign land to an unknown shore, but because of a storm, the tribute ship did not reach its destination in time, but ran aground and sank to the cold seabed, becoming a victim of the sea.
He lowered his head and rubbed the faint mark in his palm, which was so clear and shocking that he couldn't tell whether it was just a day and a night dream, or a dream of the past.
If it is true, then the shipwreck is still sinking under the sea, with a ship full of treasures, sleeping in an unknown sea.
Fang Jing turned on his mobile phone, connected to the Internet, and searched for shipwreck information, but a bunch of information about the big voyage popped up, and he was immediately embarrassed.
He patiently clicked in one by one, turned several pages and didn't see useful information, so he had to turn off his mobile phone and go to sleep, but he couldn't sleep after turning over and over, and his turning over action was so diligent that he woke up Cen Jiu on the other side.
"What's wrong?" Dark Lizen Jiu asked.
"It's okay, I just had a dream, you can go back to sleep." Fang Jing rolled over, turned his back to Cen Jiu and closed his eyes.
There was a small sound behind him, like the sound of something being dragged, Fang Jing turned around and was surprised to see that Cen Jiu had actually dragged the shelf bed he was sleeping on and placed it with the one Fang Jing was sleeping on.
Cen Jiu put the two beds together, then lay down again, and slept with Fang Jing's head.
"Sleep." Cen Jiu lay flat on the bed, clasped his hands on his lower abdomen, and closed his eyes.
Fang Jing: "......"
He's really not having nightmares and can't sleep, hey!
Fang Jing's head was full of black lines, but there was a slow and slow breathing sound beside him, and through Cen Jiu's body temperature, his excited mood actually calmed down little by little, and he fell asleep after a while.
The next day, when Fang Jing got up, he found himself lying on the bed alone, Cen Jiu had long since disappeared, and the shelf bed had also returned to its original state, making Fang Jing, who had just woken up and was not very awake in his head, once thought that what happened last night was also a dream.
He dragged the bed over for fear that he wouldn't be able to sleep because he had nightmares, all of which he imagined.
Turning his head, there were two deep scratches on the ground, and the corners of Fang Jing's mouth couldn't help but curl.
It wasn't a dream.
Fang Jing's mood became unusually happy, and he pushed open the door with a hint of excitement that he couldn't say himself.
The Fang family doesn't have so many rules, and it doesn't have to be the whole family to get up and sit neatly at the table before starting the meal at breakfast, it's usually Fang's mother who cooks the meal, and whoever is hungry eats first. Fang's mother knew that he was very tired after a day of playing with him yesterday, so she cooked early and didn't call him.
When Fang Jing came in, he saw Second Uncle Fang sitting on the edge of the table eating breakfast at a glance.
"Get up, let's have breakfast." Fang's mother gave him a bowl of seafood porridge and handed it to him.
Fang Jing tossed back and forth for a long time last night, and when he woke up in the morning, he was already hungry, so he ate after the bowl.
Second Uncle Fang had already eaten almost enough, and he was a little dissatisfied with Fang Jing's lazy appearance, but thinking of the purpose of his coming, he couldn't help but say nothing.
After eating, Father Fang chatted with Second Uncle Fang, chatted a few words, Second Uncle Fang pretended to be inadvertent, and suddenly asked: "Didn't Xiao Jing catch a piece of wood like charcoal a few days ago?" Binbin's hotel happened to be building a firewood restaurant now, and the wood was just dragged over and burned. ”
