"Yes, if you don't know how to drive, you can learn first."
Xiao Meng smiled, took out his mobile phone, and said to Chen Youcai: "I have a friend who is a driving school instructor in the city. If you are talented, please add his WeChat."
"Then... thank you Brother Meng."
Seeing that the other party was so enthusiastic, Chen Youcai couldn't refuse directly, so he nodded with a smile, and saved the phone number that Xiao Meng read out.
"You don't have to have any burdens in your heart. You are still very young, and there is always a chance to go out."
Uncle Liang patted Chen Youcai on the shoulder, put his hands behind his back, and walked slowly outside the courtyard gate: "Let's go to the village first, Xiao Chen, you don't need to have a big lunch, just cook some home-cooked food. "
Liang Wenkai and Xiao Meng were not surprised by this, they looked at each other and smiled, Chen Youcai opened his mouth and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll start preparing right away."
"My uncle has such a familiar temperament. Don't think he is easy to talk to, but if you can really eat at the same table with him, then there are not many."
After Liang Wenkai finished speaking in a low voice, he winked at Chen Youcai, and then trotted to chase Uncle Liang and the two of them.
"It's really... you're not welcome at all."
Watching the backs of the three people disappear outside the door, Chen Youcai looked away. After thinking about it, he decided not to tell his father Chen Dazhuang for the time being.
When there are distinguished guests at home, it is natural to entertain them with a table of delicious dishes.
Chen Youcai went to the small courtyard of Zhao Xiaolin's house, and invited his father and Aunt Xu back, while he went to Zhangjia Town to buy more ingredients.
Fortunately, he has quick legs and feet, and it only takes more than half an hour to go and come.
After handing over the bought chicken, duck and fish to Aunt Xu in the kitchen, Chen Youcai went to Chen Daqiang's house again, planning to invite him to come over for dinner.
Not long after, a large group of people gathered in the small courtyard, and Lao Song and Sister Tao from the hospital were also invited.
At this time, one was sitting under the tree chatting with Chen Daqiang, and the other was with Zhao Xiaolin, helping Aunt Xu.
"Hey, we just left for a while, and it's so lively?"
Not long after, the three Uncle Liang, who had wandered around the village, came back, and they were shocked by the grand formation as soon as they entered the door.
Chen Youcai hurriedly went up to greet them, and introduced everyone in the courtyard to each other, which was quite lively again.
Plates of steaming dishes were brought to the table, and Chen Youcai secretly added some secret seasonings to them.
The peculiar and rich and long-lasting fragrance immediately attracted everyone's mouth watering, and they stretched their heads to look at the various dishes.
"It's better to have something from the countryside. No matter how many restaurants you eat, you can't smell this kind of fragrance..."
Uncle Liang is also an experienced diner, and he has participated in many dinners and receptions on weekdays.
But the plate of ordinary farm side dishes in front of him successfully whetted his appetite, and for a moment he just wanted to pick up the bowls and chopsticks and feast on them.
"It's really fragrant, and it makes people move their index fingers."
A strange look flashed in Xiao Meng's eyes, and he praised Chen Youcai.
"Okay, the dishes are almost ready, you guys eat first, there is still fish stewing in the pot, it will be ready soon."
Aunt Xu was also quite happy to see that the dishes she had cooked were so popular, she greeted her, and went into the kitchen to get busy again.
Both Lao Song and Sister Tao have tasted Zhang Dagui's teppanyaki food, but unfortunately since the food stall was demolished, it has been under construction and transformed into a food court.
Zhang Dagui never went out of the stall again, and he never tasted those fragrant and delicious Teppanyaki again.
They never expected that they could smell that familiar smell again today... Both of them were quite pleasantly surprised, and they were going to try their best to have a good time.
"Fragrant, so fragrant!"
"Why is this chicken so delicious? Is it a specialty of your Chenjia Village?"
"It's really good, umm, the taste is too good!"
After a while, everyone ate in amazement, even Xiao Meng and Liang Wenkai, who had seen many big scenes, were so full of food that they got carried away.
Uncle Liang was quite gentle at the beginning, but after he took a bite of braised chicken nuggets, he grabbed a chicken leg and gnawed on it, completely forgetting what "eating looks" is.
And Lao Song went too far, seeing that Uncle Liang and the other three had good temperaments, he wanted to be reserved in front of others.
However, when a piece of homemade tofu was put into his mouth, it was so fragrant that he almost swallowed his tongue... How can you be so reserved, if you don't use your chopsticks a few more times, even the tofu slices will be snatched up by Zhao Xiaolin and Sister Tao!
Just like that, no one said anything at the table, they were all immersed in eating and drinking, Chen Daqiang and Chen Dazhuang were even more smiling, not to mention how happy they were.
Not long after, a large table was filled with vegetables, and only some residual soup and water remained.
When Aunt Xu brought a large pot of stewed fish to the table, Uncle Liang and the three of them could only watch helplessly when their stomachs were full. It was a pity.
"I haven't eaten so full for a long time, and I'm a bit stuck..."
Uncle Liang reluctantly looked away from the white and tender garlic-like fish, and smiled with emotion, while Liang Wenkai and Xiao Meng held their stomachs together, and they had no strength left to make a sound.
"You always like it, you can come here often in the future, just take it as a place to relax."
Chen Youcai served Uncle Liang a bowl of fish soup. The latter glanced at it, smiled wryly and waved his hands: "I really can't drink it anymore, I almost can't walk..."
The rapid knock on the door interrupted Uncle Liang's words, Chen Youcai put down the bowl and chopsticks, got up and walked to open the courtyard door, he couldn't help being stunned.
Standing outside the door were two officials with strange faces, and they were sweeping towards everyone in the courtyard with straight faces.
What made Chen Youcai frown even more was that President Pi and Gangzi were actually standing behind the official!
"The two leaders, he is Chen Youcai, the one who beat us!"
Mr. Pi's face was pale, and his head was still wrapped in thick white gauze, as if he was wearing a huge steamed bun.
Gangzi was even more exaggerated. The entire right arm was put in a plaster cast, and it was hung under the neck with a bandage, making it look like a comminuted fracture.
"You are Chen Youcai? We received a report that you intentionally hurt someone. Come with us."
After the officer on the left finished speaking coldly, he took out a pair of bracelets from his waist, and made a gesture to handcuff Chen Youcai's wrist.
Everyone in the courtyard was stunned by this scene, and they all gathered around at this moment. The officer on the right sharpened his eyes, raised his finger and shouted at the crowd, "Stand back whatever you want to do!"
"Dad, it's okay. I'll go back with them to do the review. It's nothing serious."
Chen Youcai tried his best to force a smile, and nodded to Chen Dazhuang who was hesitant to speak. Aunt Xu and others stood aside, all anxious but helpless.
"Hmph, I've said it a long time ago, sooner or later you will cry!"
Mr. Pi sneered, shaking his legs, he was proud: "What's the use of hard fists, this is a society ruled by law!"
Hearing this, Uncle Liang, who was originally standing behind the crowd, narrowed his eyes slightly, and then gave Xiao Meng a wink.
The latter understood immediately, walked to the corner, took out his mobile phone, and dialed a certain number.
"And his father, who is also an accomplice, must be taken back together!"
At the same time, Mr. Pi's face was full of joy, he felt that the winning ticket was in his hands, he couldn't help feeling a little bit elated, he actually pointed at Chen Dazhuang, and gave orders to the two officials.
"...Okay, then take it away."
The faces of the two officials were ugly when they heard the words, but the case was handed down by their superiors, and they had to follow orders.
"My dad is the victim, why do you want to arrest him?"
Just when the officer on the left took out a pair of handcuffs again, Chen Youcai couldn't bear it anymore, and asked angrily with a sullen face, "He even smashed my dad's head with a brick, should we arrest him together?" ?”
Facing Chen Youcai's glaring gaze, Gangzi looked leisurely, and raised his right arm covered in plaster provocatively.
