Chapter 182 Return
Jia Yi still didn't plan to cook seafood for this big meal. After all, this was a farewell banquet, and the Shi family never lacked seafood. They could have it anytime they wanted. Even if Jia Yi could cook better, there was a limit.
And their family prefers Jia Yi’s dishes such as red meat and vegetables.
Jia Yi specially brought many kinds of ingredients from Taoyuan, including fragrant pork, beef, tofu, chicken, duck, eggs and some vegetables. Since it was a big meal, Jia Yi naturally tried his best.
He took care of today's meal all by himself.
While he was cooking for more than two hours, the kitchen was never quiet. He had no choice but to deal with a lot of ingredients. He could only arrange his time reasonably and use the free time while cooking the dishes to do some vegetable cutting work.
Naturally, it couldn't be quiet anymore.
"Finally done."
After finishing the last dish, Jia Yi wiped the sweat from his head. That's the bad thing about cooking in summer, it's a little too hot.
"Brother Jia, the food is ready, suck...I'll help you serve it."
Shi Yuan had been watching Jia Yi cooking from a distance in the kitchen. He couldn't help it. The smell coming from the kitchen was so fragrant. If Mr. Shi hadn't stopped him, he would have run into the kitchen to watch. Well, as for
Some people say that he wants to eat secretly, which is simply a slander. He is a good boy who abides by the rules.
At this time, Mr. Shi came behind him, grabbed his back collar, and said angrily.
"You still want to serve the food. If I really let you serve it, I'm afraid you'll be full without even having to serve it. Go...go get people to eat."
As he spoke, Mr. Shi took him out of the kitchen, gave him a kick, and gently drove him away.
"Okay, old lady, let's serve the food."
"okay."
At the dinner table, the Shi family are all present. They also know that Jia Yi will go back tomorrow. Today is probably the last time they will taste Jia Yi’s cooking. They don’t know if they will have the chance to eat it again in the future. Therefore, they all
I came back early and was waiting for this meal.
"Old man, use your chopsticks quickly, everyone is waiting for you."
Mr. Shi started eating without talking nonsense. He took a few chopsticks but said nothing. Everyone was a little stunned for a while. Mrs. Shi was the first to react and hurriedly picked up her chopsticks and started eating too.
Seeing this, everyone also reacted. What else can be said? They looked at each other and everyone said nothing. They just started eating. If they didn't eat, there would be nothing left to eat.
For a moment, the farewell banquet that was supposed to be lively was filled with the sounds of chewing and chopsticks hitting plates.
"Wow, I feel so full."
Finally, the feast of grabbing food was over. Everyone was full. You know, Jia Yi made half the portion than usual. Unexpectedly, he was still completely eaten, with nothing left.
No wonder everyone is slumped in their chairs and unable to get up.
"No, I want to sit down and take a rest."
"Dad is right, I can't get up either."
"I feel so satisfied with what I ate today."
"Thank you, Xiao Yi, your cooking skills are really amazing."
"Xiao Yi, are you still planning to come over in the future?"
Mr. Shi calmed down and looked at Jia Yi with concern. This time, the villagers exchanged a lot of supplies with Jia Yi, and many of them were sold at high prices. The villagers' lives have been much better this year, but they also know that,
If Jia Yi could come here often to make purchases, they would be able to live such a good life forever. However, if Jia Yi doesn't come here in the future, they will definitely have to live the same life again next year.
Jia Yi also thought that the seafood produced in his Taoyuan must be priced relatively high, so he might as well come here to purchase it.
"Old man, I will. I will come to see you when the time comes."
…
"Xiao Yi, these are the specialties I bought for you."
Looking at the several big bags on the ground, Jia Yi felt numb all over. This was probably too much.
"So many."
"It seems to be a bit too much. How do you take it back? Do you want me to help you take it back?"
Shi Wu was a little embarrassed. There were not only the specialties he bought, but also the shrimp paste they prepared, and some fishermen’s homemade dried seafood. This was also the intention of those fishermen. Jia Yi really improved their
Quality of Life.
Jia Yi shook his head and refused. This was not a difficult problem for him. There was no need to bother Shi Wu.
"No, you help me deliver the things to the old place, and I'll ask them to send them back."
"Ah, there are some steamed buns in here. It won't work if you leave them for too long."
"Don't worry, we have preservation measures in place, otherwise we wouldn't be able to transport so much seafood."
"Oh, I'm confused. I'll send it to you right now."
Just as Jia Yi was about to leave, he heard someone calling him from behind. When he turned around, he saw that it was him.
"Uncle Wang, why are you here?"
"I heard that you are leaving, why don't I come over to see you off."
Everyone else was here, so Jia Yi couldn't say anything.
"Uh, okay, thank you, these are..."
"This, this is a specialty I prepared for you. Don't refuse in a hurry. We made it ourselves and it's our intention."
Jia Yi: “…”
Well, Jia Yi has no reason to refuse, these are indeed made by their own family.
Dried kelp, seaweed, mussels, dried fish... they are all homemade dried goods by fishermen on the seaside, as well as some special sauces.
"Uncle Wang, let's go to the Dragon King Temple together and put down our things. It's hard for me to take the train back with so many things."
"Hehe, I didn't think of it for a moment."
…
Jia Yi took away the two of them, and then received all the special products in the space. Now there is no time to sort the special products into categories, so Jia Yi can only send them to the cave warehouse.
Fortunately, the time here is always prohibited, so you don’t have to worry about things breaking.
At the train station, Jia Yi waved goodbye to Wang Jin, Shi Wu and the others. Jia Yi felt a little sad for a moment. After staying in Tianjin for more than 20 days, we all got along well with each other and were considered friends. We said goodbye this time, and I don’t know if we will meet again next time.
What time is it.
"well…"
Jia Yi came earlier, and there were not many people on the train, but many people got on the train later.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! At this time, the most commonly used means of transportation for people to travel far away was the train, so although there were fewer people who needed it than in later generations, the crowding level of the train was not inferior at all.
of later generations.
Jia Yi glanced at the three people sitting around him. Next door was an old man in his sixties, and opposite was an old couple in their fifties.
Well, there should be no such nagging from Wang Jin this time, and he can finally take a train in peace.
Quietly leaning against the window, the train started slowly, speeding up gradually. Soon, the train station was far away, and Tianjin was outside.
Although he wanted to go to Taoyuan to sort out the specialties, the carriage was so noisy that it would feel too strange if he closed his eyes.
"Comrade, can you change seats?"
Jia Yi: "???"
He stared blankly at the old man next to him, speechless. Did he want to slap him in the face again? What he just said...
The old man saw that Jia Yi had no reaction, and then said a little embarrassedly.
"Little comrade, it's like this. I'm from Tianjin, and my son insists on me going to the capital. I don't know if I have a chance to come back, so I want to take a closer look..."
This reason was too strong for Jia Yi to refuse, so he happily changed places with the old man and sat by the aisle.
"Thank you, little comrade."
"No, it's not a big deal."
The old man lay by the car window and carefully looked at Tianjin outside the window. This was his hometown, the place where he had lived all his life, and he did not want to leave.
Here are his relatives, friends, neighbors, everything about him.
However, the son and daughter-in-law are also in a dilemma in Beijing. Although they both have jobs and have no financial problems, there is no one to take care of the grandchildren. We cannot let the daughter-in-law take care of the children at home without working.
Moreover, the daughter-in-law's parents also had several children to take care of in their hometown, and they couldn't spare the time to go to the capital. Therefore, they had no choice but to let him, an old man, go to the capital where he was unfamiliar with to help.
Soon, Tianjin was far away and could no longer be seen. The old man's mood became obviously much lower.
The uncle opposite saw this and couldn't bear it, so he explained.
"Brother, don't be sad. You are going to find your own children. You should be happy. Think more about your lovely grandchildren."
The old man was shocked.
"Yeah, I haven't seen them very often since they were born. Alas, I'm so busy at work that I don't even have time off. This time, I can live with them."
"Yes, so, brother, you should be even more happy."
"I know, but I'm not familiar with the place in the capital, and I don't know if I can get used to it."
The old man is still a little worried. Everything in Beijing is unfamiliar to him, and he is afraid that he will not be able to adapt.
"What's so scary about this? You'll get used to it after just a few days."
"It's just that you are happy when you are with your grandchildren. Just like my wife, when she went to visit her granddaughter this time, she was so happy that she smiled from ear to ear."
The old man opposite him blushed when his wife said this.
"Old woman, don't talk nonsense. I'm only happy to see my daughter doing well."
"Haha, you damn duck has a tough mouth."
