Chasing

Wei Yi finished his meal with his parents, cleaned up and took his son home.No one lived in the house for more than half a month. Fortunately, the heating came on, so it was not deserted, but it was covered with a layer of dust everywhere, which made it not so clean.Wei Wenxi put down her schoolbag and went to tidy up her room. She folded all the exercise books and draft papers that had been spread out on the desk and put them neatly in a corner of the desk. Then she wiped all the dusty places in the room with a rag, and washed the mop to get ready. mop.Wei Yi took off the sheets and quilts of the father and son, threw them into the washing machine, and changed them into clean ones.

Wei Yi was quick with his hands and feet. After finishing it, he turned on the TV, put his feet on the coffee table in a nondescript manner, and watched TV while eating an apple, while Wei Wenxi was working hard like a child laborer, dragging her to the bottom of Wei Yi's feet. He looked at his slightly mentally handicapped father with his hands on his hips in dissatisfaction, and angrily asked him to take his feet away.

"It's really in the way." Wei Wenxi said.

Wei Yi held his son up and put him on his lap. Under his son's struggle, he scratched his waist with both hands.Wei Wenxi couldn't help laughing, and said, "Smelly dad, let me go."

"Are you still talking about me?" Wei Yi asked him.

"Don't say it, don't say it." Wei Wenxi was only a 12-year-old child. Facing an adult like Wei Yi, of course he was weak, so he could only beg for mercy.

Wei Yi let go of his hand and let his son down, only to see that Wei Wenxi's face was flushed with a smile, and then she glared at him fiercely, and went on to serve Wei Yi, a capitalist, as a child laborer.

After Wei Wenxi finished mopping the floor, Wei Yi called his son to come over to him, and asked, "Son, brother Xiao Fei will come tomorrow, what shall we eat?"

"Let's eat hot pot." Wei Wenxi sat down, took an apple and started to eat it.

"Sauerkraut pot?"

"Hmm." Wei Wenxi was blocked by a mouthful of apple, and could only make such a sound.

"Come on, get up early tomorrow morning and accompany Dad to the morning market to buy vegetables."

"Okay." Wei Wenxi swallowed the apple and agreed.Maybe because Han Jifei was coming, Wei Wenxi was very active.

The father and son went to bed early, and got up early the next day to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables.

In the morning market, many farmers will come to sell vegetables. Because it is cold, they don't want to stay outside for too long, so the vegetables are very fresh but the price is very cheap.The green rapeseed, with water vapor on the leaves, looks very tender, and only costs two yuan a catty; the tender green chrysanthemum chrysanthemum, whose stems break when you touch it lightly with your fingers, costs three yuan a catty; Carrots, even ones are sold for one piece, and thin and small ones are sold for 5 cents.Wei Yi, who hadn't visited the vegetable market for a long time, was like picking up a treasure. He walked around and bought several bags of vegetables.Of course, there is also a sauerkraut, two pieces of frozen tofu, two catties of pork belly, and all kinds of small seafood... Both father and son's hands are full of plastic bags, but luckily Wei Yi had the foresight to drive here , They stuffed all the vegetables in the trunk and found a breakfast shop for breakfast.

The breakfast shop was bustling with activity, and the heat was hanging on the cold glass windows. The boss was busy remembering each customer's request, and finally arrived at Wei Yi's father and son's place.Wei Yi ordered tofu nao and sesame seed cakes, and Wei Wenxi did the same.The tofu nao here is ordered with brine, the store scrambles the egg sauce, and there is chili oil on the table, half a spoonful of egg sauce with a spoonful of tofu nao, and a bite of oil-salted biscuits sprinkled with sesame seeds. It's almost heaven.

After breakfast, the father and son drove home, Wei Wenxi went back to her room to do her homework, and Wei Yi was in the kitchen tidying up the meat and vegetables bought in the morning.

Put the pork belly in the refrigerator to deacidify, pick and wash the vegetables, put the cockles and razor clams in clean water to spit out the sand, and remove the shrimp thread. The frozen tofu is a whole piece. Wei Yi put it in a basin to thaw. Just cut it before eating.He emptied out the family's ancestral copper hot pot, wiped off the floating ash on the surface, and sat on a large enamel plate. When Han Jifei came, he would have time to burn charcoal.

At this time, Wei Wenxi came out to inspect the area, expressed satisfaction with his father's work all morning, washed two bunches of grapes, and went back to the room.

The simple work is done, and the next step is the main event.

Sauerkraut must be stewed first before it can be placed in the hot pot, and sauerkraut that has not been stewed through is tasteless.As for stewing sauerkraut, the premise is to cut sauerkraut. Wei Yi just learned how to cook, but his parents didn’t let him cut it. They thought he cut it too thickly and the stew wouldn’t taste good. Wei Yi went home and practiced patiently for two winters. Just cut the shredded sauerkraut finely and evenly.This cutting of sauerkraut is to slice a leaf of sauerkraut into three pieces, and then put them together. When the wrist moves, the knife will fall, and the sauerkraut shreds with uniform thickness will be on the cutting board. Only such shredded sauerkraut can be used It tastes the most beautiful.

Wei Yi took out the pork belly from the refrigerator again, cut it into slices of uniform thickness, then set up the pot and started to stew sauerkraut.Slowly, the oil flakes separated from the fat of the pork belly and the sour taste of the sauerkraut are just in harmony, and the air is filled with a tempting smell.

At this moment, Wei Yi's cell phone rang, and just as he was about to go out to answer it, Wei Wenxi came in with the phone in hand.

"Brother Xiaofei, we are at home, ah, you don't know which building, you wait at the gate of the community, I will go down to pick you up." Wei Wenxi hung up the phone, informed Wei Yi, took his mobile phone and got off building.

Wei Yi put the lid on the pot and placed the freshly prepared ingredients on the table. After a while, Wei Wenxi called him to open the door.

Han Jifei came over and not only brought Iron Man to Wei Wenxi, but also brought a bottle of wine.He smiled and said that his father found it for him from the wine cabinet when he heard that he was coming to Wei Yi's house for dinner.

Wei Yi also thought that Han Jifei's family did not lack these things, and what he brought to him must be good wine. He opened the bag and saw that there was a bottle of 53-degree Honghua Lang inside. It's cheap.He just wanted to refuse, but Han Jifei said: "My dad gave up drinking, but it's too good to be willing to take it out. Brother Wei, you can accept it. When I come to your house as a guest, I can't empty-handed. This is also my dad's point." Heart, say thank you for taking care of me."

Wei Yi didn't drink very much, at most two taels of liquor, he was quite embarrassed, but it was hard to refuse, so he had to accept it.Han Jifei was startled when he saw hot pot and seafood on the kitchen table: "Brother Wei, what are you doing here?"

"Wen Xi wants to eat sauerkraut pot. We went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables early in the morning. When I came back, I started to clean up and stew sauerkraut until now."

"Brother Wei, you are too good at this. I didn't expect you to be so good at cooking."

Wei Yi smiled and said, "If I take care of the child by myself, I will be able to do everything." Then he said to Wei Wenxi, who was standing beside him, "Son, wash some fruit for brother Xiaofei. Dad, put the charcoal on and after a while Let's just eat."

"I washed the grapes just now, and there are apples and pears on the table. Brother Xiaofei, let's not stay in the kitchen anymore, let my dad do the work." Wei Wenxi pulled Han Jifei away while Wei Yi scolded him as a joke After entering the kitchen, after a while, Wei Yi heard his son exclaim in surprise, thinking that something happened, he rushed out.

It turned out that his son was jumping with joy while holding a box, Wei Yi was a little dazed, as if he had never seen his son showing such a carefree smile.

"What's the matter?" Wei Yi walked over and asked Wei Wenxi.

Wei Wenxi took out a box as if presenting a treasure, which contained this red and yellow toy. Wei Yi took a closer look, and it was a Q version of Iron Man.

Wei Wenxi happily said to Wei Yi: "Dad, Brother Xiaofei gave this to me."

Wei Yi glared at his son, and Wei Wenxi froze immediately. He reluctantly returned the box to Han Jifei and said, "Brother Xiaofei, I can't take it."

Wei Yi turned to Han Jifei and said, "You...can't give this to him, it's quite expensive." After all, he checked the price, and he couldn't indulge his son to accept such an expensive thing.

"Brother Wei, this is FunkoPOP. It's very cheap. I bought one before, and my friend gave me another one. Seeing that Xiaoxi likes it, I'll give him one."

Wei Yi didn't understand what it was, and he didn't ask. No matter how cheap it is, you can't have hundreds of things. This is the principle of educating his son.But Han Jifei took out his mobile phone, opened Taobao, and found the page to show Wei Yi, "Brother Wei, this is less than a hundred. Besides, this is a gift from me, and Xiaoxi can accept it."

Wei Wenxi also let go of his cool disguise, and pulled Wei Yi's sleeves to grind people: "Dad..." The sound made Wei Yi's bones crumble. Wei Yi had no choice but to nod, but in the end, Added a sentence: "Wei Wenxi, let me tell you, just this once!"

Wei Wenxi saluted him and said, "Obey!" Then he happily took the box Han Jifei handed him, and made a face at Wei Yi.

Wei Yi always felt that Wei Wenxi was like a little adult, but at this time, he felt that Wei Wenxi was just a little kid, and Han Jifei was the same way.He shook his head and looked at the two brats playing with Iron Man on the sofa, and went to the kitchen to continue making his hot pot.
