They parted ways, and Li Ming pushed his bicycle to the gate of the steel rolling mill to wait for his father to go home together.
...
"Old Li, look, isn't that Mingzi, here to pick you up again." Yi Zhonghai said enviously.
Father Li looked up and saw that his big son was greeting him from across the street. He quickly said goodbye to a few workers around him, and then happily sat on his son's bicycle amidst the envy of all the workers.
I can't help but be envious. His wife is in the street office, her son is a regular cadre at the steel rolling mill, and there is a girl at home who will start as a cadre after graduation.
Or people say that the gap between humans is sometimes greater than the gap between dogs and humans.
"By the way, dad, I'm not eating at home today. I'm going out to eat with my colleagues." Li Ming said to his dad while riding his bike.
"Go ahead. You're at work now anyway. As long as you don't go out and mess around, it's just a meal with your colleagues."
"And I don't plan to eat when I go back today. I asked your mother to keep it for me. I have to go out and buy food or something."
Comrade Li Weiguo said with emotion that the food now is enough to eat, but if there is really a disaster year, these things at home will not be enough!
The most important thing is that I won’t be able to spend any money at that time. It’s also thanks to my son’s reminder that regardless of whether it’s sooner or later, it’s better to spend more time at home.
The father and son chatted and hurried on their way, and soon they arrived at the Siheyuan, much faster than others taking Route 11.
When we arrived at the courtyard, the first person we met was the door god Yan Fugui, who was packing flowerpots there.
While the old man didn't notice them, the father and son quickly walked a few steps back home.
"Mom, I'm back with my dad!" Li Ming howled at his mother who was supervising the work in the courtyard.
Only then did Mother Li realize that her eldest son was back. She quickly gave a few instructions to the masters around her and turned back home.
"Mom, how is our yard doing?" Li Ming held up a teapot and filled it with water.
"It's not even half done yet. Don't worry. Are you in such a hurry that you want to move out?" Mother Li looked at her son jokingly.
Li Ming waved his hands repeatedly, "That's not true. I just finished packing and went over to take a look or something."
"By the way, I won't be eating at home tonight. My colleagues are having a party and someone is treating me."
Then he gave a report to his mother.
"Go ahead, it's okay to hang out more."
In this regard, Li's mother is as open-minded as Li's father.
Seeing that Li Ming had received permission from his Queen Mother, he got on his bike and left the courtyard, planning to go to Donglaishun to have a good meal of mutton. Ever since he traveled across time, he had not gone to Donglaishun very often. This time, someone finally treated him, so he had to go there to eat. A meal, after all, I still have to work hard at night.
"By the way, wife, I won't be eating at home today. You two can just leave the pot for me after you finish eating. I have to take this opportunity to see if I can stock up on some more food or something."
"Okay, then you ride my car there."
Father Li picked up the car keys from home and left the courtyard.
"Mom, where is my brother?" Li Rui also came back at this time and asked when she saw that her brother was not at home.
"Your brother went out to have dinner with his colleagues. Your dad didn't have to wait, he went out to buy something."
"Okay, then I'm going to do my homework. Call me when dinner is ready." After saying that, without waiting for Mother Li's answer, she ran straight to her room and started doing her homework.
Donglaishun entrance.
Li Ming rode all the way to Donglaishun in a hurry.
Zhou Tian now took up the responsibility of waiting for others at the door. When he saw Li Ming coming, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Mingzi, you are really fast!" She said and handed over a cigarette.
Li Ming took the cigarette and put it behind his ears before parking the car.
"Someone is treating us to dinner, so we must hurry up and come."
"Yeah, you kid is going to take it to your heart!" Zhou Tian complained with a frown.
"Okay, you go in quickly, I still have to wait for Lao Xu."
"They're on the innermost table on the left."
"Okay, brother Tian'er, you are tired, haha."
After entering Dong Lai Shun, walking to the left and walking to the end, Li Ming saw three large smoking chimneys. No wonder they were in a corner. If they were in other places, they would be easily beaten!
"Mingzi is here! Sit down, sit down." When Wu Gang saw Li Ming, he quickly stood up and pulled him to sit down.
Three chimneys became four.
After waiting for a while, Xu Qiang followed Zhou Tian in.
"Order food, order food!" Xu Qiang called the waiter over to order. The four people who ordered the treat had their eyelids twitching.
This Donglaishun mutton has two major characteristics.
The first is the selection of ingredients: the mutton used in Donglaishun Shabu-Shabu Mutton comes from sheep that have been castrated for one to one and a half years in Xilingol League, Inner Mongolia. These sheep have sweet local water and tender grass, and the grass is rich in minerals, so the mutton meat is tender and tender. , no smell. The parts of the sheep they use are the "upper brain", "cucumber strips", "crotch", "big Sancha", "small Sancha" and other parts of the sheep. The yield rate only accounts for 40% of the clean meat of a sheep.
So the few people who ordered it were eyelid twitching, it was expensive! The most outstanding meats of the "Shang Nao", "Cucumber Strips", "Moo Crotch", "Big Sancha" and "Little Sancha" were so delicious that I had to order three portions of each!
The second is sugar-garlic crispy: The most distinctive condiment for Dong Laishun Shabu-Shabu Lamb is sugar-garlic. The sugar garlic they choose is an excellent variety of large six-clove garlic from Daqinghe, Bazhou City, Hebei Province. It is refined by the company's distribution center for three months. This kind of sugar garlic has no peculiar smell, is sweet and sour, has a crisp texture, is appetizing and relieves greasiness.
Tsk, this sweet garlic is also free!
The four old salted fish who wanted to help each other saw that today's meal was destined to bleed heavily, so they had no time to feel sorry for themselves. As soon as the meat came up, the six of them started to rush to cook it. If they could eat more of it, they would eat less. I feel bad for a while.
After the meal was over, each of the six chimneys lit a cigarette and started chatting.
"Old Xu, you've done a lot to my brother today. You must do your best tonight!" Wang Jun was vaccinated in advance.
"Hiccup! Don't worry, you four can't do it, plus the two of us will definitely be fine."
"Besides, if Akiko can roll the enamel cylinder into balls, he might be able to pick the two of them by himself!"
These two sentences made Xu Qiang so laborious to say that he even hiccupped and smoked.
Comrade Li Ming rubbed his belly comfortably and said that he was indeed full after tonight's meal, and it was time to express it himself.
"Brothers, don't worry. Generally speaking, there will be no problem. As long as you don't make a big deal, anything will be easy to handle!"
Only then did everyone realize that the four of them were often dealing with physical problems, so they were not in good health. Xu Qiang and Chief Xu don't have this hobby, but everyone still murmurs at the strength of an old man in his forties who often fishes.
At this time, I saw the strength of my own stocks taking responsibility for speaking out, and this was a sense of relief!
