Chapter 128: New Year

Because her son was coming back, Guo Yu made a hearty Chinese breakfast early, she boiled preserved egg and lean porridge, steamed steaming steamed buns, and went to Chinatown to buy freshly fried fritters and small pickles that made people appetizing at first glance. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 As soon as he entered the door, Ye Feng was attracted by the dazzling array of breakfast on the table, and the long-lost taste made him start to swallow his saliva involuntarily. He didn't bother to put down his backpack, so he grabbed a bun and took a bite of it. Support! That's the taste! This may be the only food that Ye Feng misses after becoming a professional player that does not meet the requirements of nutritionists.

If it were before, Guo Yu would pretend to be angry and drive her son to the kitchen to wash his hands, but now she just smiled and watched her son sit at the dining table and gobble it up, let's put it aside first! In fact, Ye Feng was not very hungry, although he was in a hurry the night before, he only left the stadium after eating some salad and chicken in the locker room, he knew his appetite very well, so he didn't feel his stomach rumbling even after taking the red-eye flight for half a night. But it can't be helped, this is the taste of home, and there is no such high-standard "treatment" in Portland.

After drinking a whole bowl of porridge and stuffing two buns and two fried dough sticks, Ye Feng leaned back comfortably on the chair and hummed. Ye Ning and Guo Yu looked at each other and smiled, and continued to eat their breakfast slowly. After the meal, Guo Yu skillfully cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and the father and son sat on the sofa and chatted. Although he used to be a professional player, Ye Ning never played in the NBA, the world basketball hall, and even though the NBA had gradually begun to explore overseas markets under the leadership of David Stern at that time, Ye Ning had almost no chance to play against the NBA's top stars.

So he is still very curious about the life of NBA players, from the locker room to the training session to the various facilities and staff, Ye Ning is quite interested. There's no way, Lao Tzu is interested, how can his son hide it? Again, this is not a competitor asking for trade secrets. However, as a mother, Guo Yu's focus is completely different from her husband's, and she couldn't help but interject as soon as she entered the living room after washing the dishes: "Son, how is your life in Portland?" Have you ever felt embarrassed by the veteran players? You usually strictly control your fat intake, so can you eat enough......

Ye Feng looked at his mother, who obviously wanted to ask more questions, quickly raised his hand to stop, and then began to answer questions one by one: "The climate in Portland is very good, and the apartments provided by the team are also of a fairly high standard, so I feel that I have a good life in Portland...... Our team is still dominated by young players, in the words of our coach, there are no thorns, everyone is very hard-working, very enthusiastic, and the atmosphere in the team is absolutely top-notch...... As for those nutritious meals, there is still meat, how can you have the strength to play the game if you don't eat enough? It's just that those practices are not very flattering, and many of them are boiled in vain......"

After speaking, Ye Feng slapped a sycophant unsatisfied: "Of course, there must be no delicious food you cooked, Mom!" Guo Yu, who was secretly complaining about the team's nutritionist just now, immediately smiled and said in a loud voice: "As far as you can speak, what do you want to eat today?" I'm going out to buy groceries right now! Ye Ning said angrily: "I haven't usually seen you so active, how do I feel that the food has risen several levels as soon as my son comes back?" It's literally transformed from a street food stall into a five-star luxury hotel. ”

Guo Yu gave him a blank look, and said to Ye Feng with his own care: "Don't pay attention to your father, think about what to eat today, New Year's Day, according to our Chinese tradition, then you must make a good meal!" Ye Feng smiled at his father and began to report the menu: "Mom, I want to eat pork belly with sauce, white fungus lotus seed soup, sweet and sour pork ribs, mapo tofu, ......" It's hard for him to report such a large list of dish names so smoothly after eating Western food in Portland for half a year.

Guo Yu naturally had no opinion, and even immediately prepared to change his clothes and go out to buy frantically, only Ye Ning asked quietly: "If you eat like this, it won't affect your physical condition, right?" I seem to have heard that the team doctors of NBA teams also pay attention to data such as body fat percentage. Ye Feng said with a hippie smile: "It's okay, I only eat a little bit of each dish, and most of the time I will still comply with the requirements of the dietitian." ”

Sure enough, Ye Feng did what he said, and at noon, he looked at the table full of Chinese food in front of him, and forcibly suppressed his urge to eat Haisai, just a few chopsticks in each dish, reminiscing about the taste he almost forgot, and more often he still held the plate of salad and ate it with relish. Guo Yu felt very distressed when she saw it, she didn't care about fat intake or anything, she just felt that her son was still so restrained on such an important festival as New Year's Day, which was a little too hard. However, Ye Ning is quite appreciative of his son's approach, after all, he is also a person who has played professional games, and his ideological height is still leveraged, and he can taste these traditional Chinese dishes, and as a professional player, he should be more strict with himself.

The two-day short vacation is still very cool for Ye Feng, after all, life at home is quite comfortable, whether it is eating or sleeping, it seems that he is still not in the NBA, as if the smell of gunpowder on the court has gone. Being able to go home and rest for a while in the midst of a busy schedule is what a rookie player looks forward to the most, not to mention the end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009.

In the past year, Ye Feng has completed the most important transformation of his life, from a semi-professional player playing in the NCAA to a professional player playing in the NBA. Of course, in his opinion, the most important takeaway of this year is not only the NCAA championship trophy, but also the large group of mentors and friends he knows, UCLA's Holland, Westbrook, Loew, Bamott, the Trail Blazers' McMillan, Roy, Aldridge, Oden, and of course, Jeff Hornacek and his daughter Abby, which is a treasure more to cherish than a championship.

For 2009, Ye Feng does not have much luxury, the All-Star Game and the championship are still far away, and the Rookie of the Year can be competed for, of course, he always believes that his most important task is to integrate into the team as soon as possible, give full play to his role, stabilize his position as a starting small forward, and lead the team to the playoffs with his teammates.

However, it would be better if we could go further!
