——19:05pm——
Farmhouse - "Mountain Family".
"Come on, come on, everyone, you're welcome, eat and drink well!"
Four huge spotlights cast bright light, illuminating the entire open square like daylight.
The tables and seats were scattered, and the figures were messy. The tourists picked up their wine glasses, pushed up the atmosphere, and stood up shouting.
"cheers!"
Bang~
The wine was clear and swaying under the light.
The dishes are bright and delicious as they circulate throughout the table.
“This farmhouse is really the right one.”
The middle-aged man looked at the excitement at other tables and took a sip of the white wine in his glass as if he was enjoying it.
He was about forty or fifty years old, with a square face and sharp edges, exuding a temperament that had experienced many vicissitudes of life.
"The dishes made from local chicken and duck here are really much better than those in hotels in the city. The chicken has a firm texture and is dipped in the sauce. With this flavor, I can eat three bowls of rice without any difficulty."
As the man spoke, he held up his chopsticks again, picked up a piece of white chopped chicken, dipped it in the sauce, and savored it in his mouth.
Beside him, the beautiful woman wearing a brown coat with a black turtleneck and her hair tied high smiled, looked at her son, and touched his little head.
"Did you hear that, even dad can eat three bowls of rice? Xiaoyuan, you are a little man, you must at least eat one bowl, right?"
The little boy in a down jacket shook his head and said, "I don't want it. I don't like the food here. I won't eat it."
"Why don't you eat again?"
The beautiful woman was a little helpless and still tried to persuade her: "What should you do if you are hungry at night like this?"
Middle-aged men are not as easy to talk to as their wives. He kept a straight face and reprimanded a few words pretending to be serious.
"You are growing tall now, how can you not eat? Be obedient and go get a bowl."
The boy pursed his lips, a little unhappy, but forced by his father's gaze, he finally jumped off the stool as if to compromise and walked towards the rice pail in the center of the table.
"Hey, why are you still drinking?"
When the beautiful woman saw her husband raising a glass, she looked like she wanted to continue drinking. She quickly put out her hand in front of him and said, "Aren't you going home tonight?"
"Won't come back."
The man didn't care, waved his hand and said, "We're going back now and wait until we get off the highway before entering the city. It's probably midnight when we get home. How tiring it is."
"During the day, I saw that the construction here is quite good, and there is also a B&B hotel. We might as well not go back tonight and stay here for one night."
"Now you know you're tired of shouting?"
The beautiful woman glared at him: "I think you just took this opportunity to drink. In the past, you socialized everywhere and messed up your liver function. You were hospitalized frequently, but now you are drinking again here."
"I told you not to drink, but you just didn't listen."
The man couldn't help but explain: "The doctor said, just take it in moderation, it'll be okay."
"Do you think you're your own doctor?"
"Look at you, what you said..."
The man had an unreasonable expression on his face and was trying to get away with it. Suddenly, he turned his eyes and saw a small group of people surrounding the rice pail not far away, making a lot of noise.
"What's wrong?"
The beautiful woman saw the solemn expression on her husband's face, followed his gaze, and immediately stood up anxiously.
"Didn't Xiaoyuan go to serve the rice? Why are you surrounded by people again?"
The man held his wife's shoulders and motioned for her to stay here. He approached the crowd alone, frowned and asked, "What's going on? What are you all doing here?"
He quickly glanced around and found that the people surrounding Xiao Yuan were the ones at the table that had just made the loudest noise.
The faces of the people at this table tend to be young, but they all look like they have been around the world for a long time. Now a group of people are standing in a circle around their son, with evil smiles on their faces, making it clear that they don't want him to leave easily.
"Are you this boy's father?"
"I am."
The middle-aged man frowned and didn't like the other party's frivolous remarks: "What just happened?"
"nothing."
A young man wearing earrings laughed playfully: "Your son just spilled wine on my phone and it broke."
As he spoke, he also showed off his mobile phone.
The whole phone was wet, as if it had just been picked up from the water. The man with earrings performed some symbolic operations, but the phone did not respond at all.
The middle-aged man wanted to go in and see his son first, but was blocked by a wall of people. There was a slight anger rising in his heart, but he tried his best to suppress it and said: "What are you doing here?!"
"Get out of my way!"
The middle-aged man exerted his strength and finally pushed in.
He came to his son who was bowing his head and said nothing, and asked in a low voice: "Xiaoyuan, what's going on? Tell your father."
"You still have to ask?"
The earring man's voice sounded from behind again: "Your son spilled the drink and broke my new mobile phone. Please pay for it."
"you're lying!"
The man looked at his son in his arms in shock.
Now, with tears in his eyes, as if he had been greatly wronged, he retorted hoarsely: "It's obviously you who deliberately messed with me. I didn't touch your things at all..."
"Shall we punish you?"
The man with earrings was stunned for a moment, looked at a man with bright hair next to him, and couldn't help laughing: "It's just a little joke, but you take it seriously? You've finished venting your anger on our table, and now you want to leave Let’s get over it? What’s the point of this?”
"Is it reasonable to unscrupulously make what you call a joke on a child?"
The middle-aged man didn't buy it at all. He snorted coldly and said, "You are just looking for trouble, and now you want me to compensate you? What's the point of this?"
"Get out of my way!"
I know my son's character very well, and few things would make him so anxious. But looking at the current situation, one can imagine how vile the nature of the so-called "jokes" of this group of young people is.
As for compensating the other party's losses, I'm sorry, although he is not short of the money, he will not compensate a penny for such a guy who takes the initiative to cause trouble.
"Don't want to pay?"
The man with earrings narrowed his eyes, and a group of people at the same table who were joining in the fun immediately gathered around him: "Without compensation, none of you will be able to leave tonight."
The middle-aged man wanted to make a call. As soon as he took out his mobile phone, people around him reached out to grab it. A group of people started pushing and shoving him.
The little boy was like a piece of rootless duckweed, hiding behind his father with a look of horror on his face.
The crowd at other tables seemed to be watching the excitement, with no intention of coming forward to mediate.
"alright!"
A scolding sound sounded from behind, and everyone stopped their movements in response.
The beautiful woman looked sullen and stepped forward quickly: "I will pay you compensation, how much does it cost?!"
The earring man's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing this.
The dyed man showed his payment code, and as soon as he said a number, there was a payment sound.
"It's still refreshing, Madam."
Seeing that they had received the money, the man with the earrings had no intention of making things difficult for them, and asked his companion to let go of the middle-aged man, with a smile on his face.
"Ouch, my foot slipped, please help me, madam!"
He suddenly tried to fall down, and his target was aimed at the beautiful woman.
"Get away!"
The middle-aged man kicked him, but the ear-stud man dodged as he had expected.
"Hahahaha~"
A group of people laughed heartlessly.
"Let's go back to the hotel." The middle-aged man said with a gloomy face and left immediately with his wife and son.
After all, this is not the East China Sea. He can't get along with these bastards by himself. Instead, he will put his wife and son in danger.
Xiaoyuan lowered his head, feeling confused.
Suddenly, he heard a voice coming from the crowd behind him.
"Look, what is that in the sky?"
"Meteor? It seems like a meteor?"
"What a small meteor."
Xiaoyuan raised his head and looked towards the night sky following the sound.
On the dark curtain, a faint light flickered, dragging a slender flame tail, slowly falling towards the hilltop near the farmhouse.
"It fell on our mountain!"
The earring man Youran became excited and raised his arms: "Let's go and have a look. I've never touched a shooting star before."
For a moment, the entire crowd at the farmhouse became excited, putting down their chopsticks one after another, wanting to go up the mountain to see the true appearance of the shooting star.
Xiaoyuan withdrew his gaze and followed his parents quietly.
“2.12/19:31 pm”
Shan'ao Farmhouse - "Family in the Mountains".
The shooting star is coming.
