Chapter 11: Auntie
By the time Cui Zhenna and the others returned to the pig's trotter shop, there was actually not much time left for the two hours to spare. Later, at the urging of his agent Kim Sung-hyuk, Cho Dae-ji took a few more photos, and Park Ji-yeon left in a hurry to rush to the next trip. And with the departure of the goddess, it also indicates that Li Yan's three-day and two-night trip to South Korea has passed halfway.
It seems that they all have this feeling, and the more you go to the back of the tour, the more you feel that time flies.
By the time Li Yan came back to his senses, the three-day and two-night tour had all ended.
β¦β¦
"This should be it, right?!"
Li Yan followed the address to a Chinese restaurant that looked a little old, stood in front of the Chinese restaurant and compared the address in his hand, and muttered to himself with some uncertainty. Although the three-day and two-night Korean brigade has ended, Li Yan did not return to China directly, but said goodbye to Cui Zhenna, who was red-eyed at the airport, and then turned around and returned to Seoul.
The dΓ©cor of the Chinese restaurant is a bit old, and there is a poster of Lee Hyori's soju from a few years ago on the front door, which feels more out of place than the other shops around. Walking into the restaurant, although it was already dinner time, there were not many customers in the restaurant.
The drinkers gathered together at one table in twos and threes in the east and west, not only did not warm up but showed a more bleak feeling. Obviously, this is not a Chinese restaurant that is doing too well, and it can even be described as bleak. In fact, this is not a special case of one restaurant, but the current situation of the vast majority of Chinese restaurants in Seoul.
"Excuse me......"
Seeing that there were guests in the store, Wang Xiuli, who was entertaining other guests, stepped forward and was about to ask something, but after seeing Li Yan's appearance clearly, she was suddenly stunned, and a little puzzled look appeared on her face. She always felt that the person in front of her was somewhat familiar.
Unlike Wang Xiuli's hesitation, Li Yan curled the corners of his mouth the moment he saw her, and stepped forward with a smile and said in Chinese, "Auntie, I'm here." β
Hearing Li Yan's greeting in Chinese, the original doubts on Wang Xiuli's face suddenly disappeared and turned into joy, and she also replied in Chinese, "Xiao Yan, you haven't seen it before, it's already grown like this, you don't say that I can't recognize my aunt." β
Wang Xiuli first stepped forward and touched Li Yan's arm, and then sighed, "Didn't you say that you came when you called, I thought you would come back the day before yesterday and let your uncle-in-law cook a table of good dishes, but I didn't wait until the middle of the night for you to come, I still thought about ......"
"Miane, aunt, I was thinking of coming to see you earlier, but the travel arrangements are not something I can change." Hearing his aunt's words, Li Yan immediately apologized and explained the reason why he couldn't arrive.
"It's okay," Wang Xiuli didn't get too angry about this, it was enough for her Li Yan, squinting her eyes and smiling, "Xiao Yan, I am already very happy that you can come to see your aunt, I haven't seen you for many years." β
"It's been years, aunt." Hearing Wang Xiuli's words, Li Yan also said with some emotion.
"When you were young, you still came to play with me, and I haven't seen you since then, although I call every year, but I don't ......"
β¦β¦
Although Li Yan's arrival made Wang Xiuli very happy, after all, it was not the time for the two to talk, and there were still customers in the store.
After the last customer in the restaurant also left with the smell of wine, Wang Xiuli was really empty. After hurriedly cleaning up, he closed the door of the restaurant and pulled Li Yan to find a place to sit in the restaurant.
Wang Xiuli took Li Yan's hand, looked at this nephew who she hadn't seen for a long time, and nodded with satisfaction for a long time, "Yes, it's fatter than when I was a child, it's good, it's not as thin as your cousin." β
Li Yan heard that his aunt had seen him so old, so he made such an evaluation, and immediately stepped down his face and said dissatisfied, "Mo, aunt, I haven't seen you since I just met, and you just said that about me when we met." Besides, I'm not fat, but my face is a little rounder. β
"What's the matter with being fat," Wang Xiuli listened to Li Yan's words and replied with a smile, "I wish your cousin was as fat as you." β
"Auntie, I'm really just round-faced." Li Yan explained without tears.
"By the way, my cousin hasn't seen anyone else?" Hearing Wang Xiuli mention it, Li Yan remembered that he hadn't seen his cousin, who was Wang Xiuli's son, in the store.
"Your cousin went to the United States, and said that there is important work to be done there," Wang Xiuli saw Li Yan mention her son, with a proud and somewhat dissatisfied look on her face, "All year round, I don't know what to do there, even if I don't come back a few times during the Chinese New Year." β
"Zhihao, that's for his own career." During the conversation, a slightly muffled voice came from behind the two people in the Chinese restaurant, Li Yan turned his head and saw a middle-aged man dressed as a chef in a white apron, walking out of the kitchen with a bowl of seafood noodles in his hand, and heard Wang Xiuli's nagging reply.
The man's name is Park Guozhong, and Wang Xiuli's husband is Li Yan's brother-in-law, an authentic Korean.
Speaking of which, Li Yan's aunt Wang Xiuli and her uncle-in-law Park Guozhong are still in transnational love, her uncle-in-law Park Guozhong is Korean, and her aunt Wang Xiuli is Chinese and Chinese. In other words, Li Yan's cousin Park Zhihao is an authentic Chinese-Korean mixed-race, but if you think about it, the two are not obvious.
Pu Guozhong said and brought the seafood noodles to Li Yan, and said with a smile, "There is nothing left in the kitchen, so I made a bowl of seafood noodles, Xiao Yan, you can fill your stomach first, if it is not enough, I will make it." β
Li Yan looked at the big bowl of steaming seafood noodles in front of him, and hurriedly waved his hand to say that it was enough, "No need for uncle, I may not be able to eat such a big bowl of seafood noodles." β
"Xiao Yan, what are you polite to your uncle," Park Guozhong looked at Li Yan with a smile like Wang Xiuli, and was happy in his heart, "It's okay to eat more, men, only if you are fat, you will have manliness." β
"But, uncle, I'm really just a little rounder, not fat."
Li Yan saw that both his aunt Wang Xiuli and her uncle-in-law Park Guozhong recognized that they were fat, and they were a little speechless.
"Inside, inside, I know, Xiao Yan, you eat the noodles first, and it won't taste good when it gets cold." Park Guozhong nodded, but he didn't pay attention to the persuasion at all.
"I, alas~"
Seeing this scene, Li Yan sighed, he was clear, no matter how he explained the fact that his aunt and uncle-in-law had already recognized the fact that he was fat.
However, I'm really not fat, I'm just round-faced. Deep in his heart, Li Yan let out a cry of grievance.
