Before arriving at the destination, the aroma of grilled skewers has already drifted along the evening wind for most of the street.

From a distance, Xiao Chen could smell the fragrance, and gradually felt hungry.

"It's almost there, turn a corner and walk a little further." Li Cheng greeted Xiao Chen cheerfully.

Xiao Chen nodded and followed quickly.

The setting sun has passed, and the dusk is gradually rising.

Under the dim light, a burly man in an apron, with a shiny face, stood in front of the barbecue stall, yelling at the guests, while turning the skewers in his hands, with skillful and rhythmic movements.

The aunt standing on the side collected the change with a smile on her face, and quickly cleaned up the garbage on the dining table.

Busy and full of fireworks, this is the ordinary and satisfying life of ordinary people.

"Selling skewers!"

The uncle yelled loudly again, and when he looked at the person coming, he was slightly taken aback.

But he quickly lowered his head again, and said nothing, but the movement of flipping the roast was a little flustered.

Li Cheng looked at Xiao Chen with a little restraint: "What do you like to eat? Order casually, I will treat you today."

Xiao Chen smelled the smell of grilled skewers and was really greedy. Watching the grilled skewers "sizzling" and making oily noises, the scent soared straight to the sky!

He just feels that he is very hungry and can eat a lot!

"It's all right, just look at it."

Xiao Chen was a little cautious, but his eyes couldn't help looking at the pork belly at the side.

Li Cheng saw at a glance that Xiao Chen wanted to eat pork belly, and immediately grabbed a lot of pork belly without counting the sticks.

"Dad, this handful of pork belly is all roasted!" Li Cheng said loudly, without any hesitation.

The uncle was taken aback when he heard the words, and he hadn't recovered from Li Cheng's "Dad" for a while.

This was the first time Li Cheng brought friends to have a barbecue, and it was the first time he called "Dad" in front of his friends.

Father Li has always been very clear that his son despises him as a barbecue seller.

Even so, Father Li had no complaints.

Even proud of his own son.

He has good grades since he was a child, and has a decent job when he grows up. Although he has not married a wife, he has already bought a car and a house. He has no worries about food and clothing, and is a little rich.

In this small alley in the south of the city, Li Cheng can be regarded as a child of someone else's family.

"Hey! Good good good good good good good good good!" Father Li responded happily, and then took the big bunch of skewers.

The aunt on the side was also obviously shocked by Li Cheng's abnormal behavior, and almost made a mistake when changing the money.

"Mom." Li Cheng called aunt again.

"Quick, quick, there are seats here, sit and wait." Li's mother hurriedly cleaned up the dining table, her eyes were slightly red.

My son finally no longer minds that his parents sell skewers!

But his eyes fell on Xiao Chen, and he was stunned for a few seconds.

This young man looks too handsome!

Even in the south of the city, there is no second such good-looking young man.

Li's mother thought her son was pretty good-looking, and he was considered handsome when he had thick hair.

But now because of the existence of the young man next to him, Li Cheng was made ugly several times, it seemed even uglier.

It is said that the mother does not think her son is ugly, but Li's mother couldn't help but briefly dislike her son who was getting bald.

"Xiao Cheng, is this... your friend?" Mother Li asked curiously.

Li Cheng really thought about it, and it was because of Xiao Chen's words that he suddenly thought about it.

He will no longer shy away from admitting that his parents sell barbecue, and he is more grateful for his parents' upbringing.

"His name is Xiao Chen. He is a colleague of the company. He is just a little brother. He is honest and very responsible."

Mother Li nodded when she heard the words, and then glanced at Xiao Chen again.

Xiao Chen happened to raise his eyes, nodded towards Mother Li, and smiled slightly, neither abrupt nor polite.

Mother Li's heart jumped suddenly, and she sighed again: This kid is really good-looking!

I couldn't help but focus on my son. Tomorrow, I have to ask Sister Wang next door if she has any secret recipes for hair growth.

……

It was rare for his son to take the initiative to have a barbecue with his friends. Father Li was in a great mood and hummed a song.

In less than half an hour, apart from the handful of pork belly just now, there were other skewers covering the oversized dinner plate.

"Eat quickly, eat the skewers while they are hot!" Li Cheng called Xiao Chen to eat quickly.

Li Cheng himself was not polite, he ate so heartily, he didn't care about his image at all.

Although I have eaten the skewers made by my father since I was a child, it seems that I will never get tired of eating them!

Xiao Chen also started to eat, and it tasted really good, so he took another sip of cold beer.

Just one word, cool!

Li Cheng was even more delighted to eat. He rolled up his sleeves and blew on the bottle.

Seeing Xiao Chen still drinking beer cup by cup, he immediately became unhappy.

"Xiao Xiao, what's going on! A man is a man, you have to drink it dry! You're here to drink tea!"

Li Cheng opened three bottles of beer in one breath, placed them in front of Xiao Chen, and shouted loudly: "Drink! Today, we brothers must have a good drink! Drink to your heart's content!"

It was the first time that Li's father and Li's mother saw their son like this, they immediately put down the important things in their hands and stepped forward to care.

"What's the matter? Is the work not going well?"

"It's okay if the job is not going well. Mom and Dad make a lot of money at the barbecue stall. You don't have to work so hard to make money. We don't need you to support the two old ones. You just need to take care of your own life!"

Li Cheng heard his parents' caring words, and his eyes gradually turned red: "Dad, Mom! I finally made it through! Do you know? I got a promotion and a raise, and I'm a manager!"

The two old men were taken aback when they heard the words, thinking that Li Cheng was talking nonsense after drinking too much.

"Okay, okay, don't drink."

Li Cheng saw that his parents didn't believe what he said, and immediately pointed at Xiao Chen who had been silent all this time: "If you don't believe me, ask Xiao Xiao, he is an honest man and will not lie!"

Xiao Chen, who had been drinking silently, was taken aback when he heard the words, and there was a flash of sadness in his eyes, then he raised his eyes: "Yes, Brother Li has been promoted and raised his salary."

After hearing this, the two old men were sure that it was true, and immediately clapped their hands happily, and then shouted to prepare more skewers that Li Cheng likes to eat.

Xiao Chen's gaze has been following the two old people, the years have left traces on them.

Gray hair, stooped body.

If, my parents are still there, will they also have gray hair.Wrinkled face and stooped body?

They will definitely be full of joy after they have achieved certain achievements, and they will tell themselves when they are down, don't be afraid, home will always be your harbor.

However, there will never be a chance.

Xiao Chen was like this, drinking leisurely, sip after sip, he didn't even realize how much he drank.

"Host, have you fallen into the wine jar? Your alcohol concentration has exceeded the limit!" Xiaojian issued a warning, reminding Xiao Chen not to continue drinking.

Xiao Chen was already a little dazed from drinking, and shook his head listening to the system's words, as if he wanted to shake something out of his head.
