Rebirth of the Unworthy

The Wancheng TV station building is located in the northern part of Wancheng's central business district. Walking west along the TV station building for less than two stops, there is a newly opened food street.Large restaurants and small restaurants of various sizes and flavors compete for splendor on both sides of the street. Sichuan cuisine, Cantonese cuisine, international cuisine, stir-fry, stew, hot pot, barbecue, and even snacks such as ramen, casserole, rice noodles, and spicy soup are everywhere. With a seductive aroma.

It was almost four o'clock in the afternoon when Li Rongxiu and others finished recording the program. Even if the Li family's in-laws, who were the audience, provided a delicious takeaway from the Emperor's Residence at their own expense during lunch, they were all consumed and hungry at this moment.

Clutching his stomach that was about to growl, Li Rongxiu, who was self-conscious, asked everyone to have dinner—this everyone naturally included the members of the "Big Name I'm the Biggest" program group.

Originally, after the guests had finished recording the show, the two hosts and the staff of the director team still had some things to do, but when they heard that Li Rongxiu invited everyone to dinner, and the in-laws of the Li family would also go together, in line with the principle of broad communication, The director and the two hosts happily agreed.

On the contrary, the director and actors of "The Killer" knew a little bit about Li Rongxiu's habit of treating people to dinner, so they were calmer.

As he is not yet familiar with this newly opened food street, Li Rongxiu handed over the burden of choosing a restaurant to the program director of "Friendship of the Landlord". I opened a seafood restaurant that has not been open for a long time.He also recommended with a smile: "I have been here a few times before, and the Australian lobster and oysters here are good. There are also some special dishes, and the taste is also very special."

Li Rongxiu nodded, and after entering the restaurant, he asked for two large boxes. The elders of the Li family, the Mo family, and the Zhuang family sat in one box, and Li Rongxiu's peers and classmates sat in the other along with the crew and program crew. box.In this way, it will neither be too deserted nor too embarrassing.

It wasn't long after everyone sat down after dividing the guests and hosts, the waiter came in with a thick menu.Shui Lingling's eyes scanned everyone around, then walked to the director and the two hosts, and asked what dishes to order today.

The director looked at Li Rongxiu with some embarrassment, waved his hand and said, "It's better to have less Xiu Shao. Xiu Shao is good at food, this is something that everyone knows all night long. Your taste is definitely right."

In my heart, I secretly complained that the waiter was young and had no eyesight at all.Just look at the people at the wine table today, it's never his turn to order.

What Li Rongxiu was thinking was not as twisted and bizarre as the director. He waved his hand and said, "I have never eaten here, and I don't know what special dishes they have here. Director Wang, you are a regular customer, so you should order."

Director Wang declined several times in succession, which made the others a little impatient. Xin Mengmeng took the menu directly, flipped through a few pages, and asked, "Let's have a goose-footed duck letter first for the cold dishes. How do goose feet and duck letters be made?"

The waiter answered in detail, Xin Mengmeng nodded and said, "That's it."

Then I ordered a few seafood dishes according to everyone's taste, a casserole stewed old hen soup, a few hot dishes and a few cold dishes, a few drinks and a few bottles of wine, and then I handed the menu to Zhang Wanyu beside me, and said with a smile: "I I don’t know what you all like to eat, so you can order it yourself.”

Hearing this, Zhang Wanyu waved her hands with a smile and said, "This is enough."

Xin Mengmeng smiled and said: "There are only a few dishes, and we are 20 people younger. How can we do that? Sister Wan Yu doesn't think we are thinner, but each of us can eat better than the other. If we really only order so much, we will eat later. Come up, you won't be full."

Zhou Ruixin and the others laughed and echoed Xin Mengmeng's words.Zhang Wanyu just picked up her own taste and ordered two favorite dishes, and then handed the menu to a supporting actress of "Killer's Prosperity" who was sitting next to her. Everyone ordered one dish in a clockwise direction. When it was almost done, I asked the waiter to go down and pass the dishes.

It took more than two hours to talk, laugh and eat a meal. Li Rongxiu's appetite was the most important, and his taste was tricky. He only felt that the dishes on the table were not as good as those in Emperor's Residence. The taste of some special dishes was also weird. It's not smooth to eat.So he picked up a few chopsticks like a kitten eating.On the contrary, Zhao Qijun and the others had a good meal and came back clamoring.

After the meal, all the friends chatted and laughed.The elders of the Li family also drove back to work in the company.

Shen Yujun looked at Li Rongxiu and said, "I see you didn't move your chopsticks much just now, isn't it to your taste?"

Li Rongxiu nodded and said, "It's not very tasty."

"Then let's go to another place to eat, I'm not full yet." Shen Yujun lied without even writing a draft.

Li Rongxiu was quite moved, and quickly asked: "Where are you going to eat? I'm a little tired of the dishes in Diwangju. I don't want to eat Western food, nor Chinese food, and I don't want to eat any messy dishes. Besides, What else do you recommend?"

"How about eating Malatang?" Shen Yujun thought for a while and said.

"Ah?" Li Rongxiu hadn't eaten Malatang outside yet. Hearing Shen Yujun's words, his subconscious reaction was, "Is it unclean? I'm afraid I'd have diarrhea."

"Go to my house, and I'll cook it for you. As for whether it will cause diarrhea...it depends on whether you believe in my craftsmanship."

"You can also make Mala Tang?" Li Rongxiu looked up and down Shen Yujun in disbelief, he didn't expect him to be so down-to-earth.

"Not only Malatang, but I also have many snacks. I have the opportunity to make them for you." Shen Yujun, who is well versed in the philosophy of "if you want to capture a person's heart, you must grasp his stomach", tempted him with delicious food Holding Li Rongxiu, he pushed him into the sports car. "But before we go home, we have to go to the supermarket to buy ingredients."

So the two drove a sports car and wore famous brands to the supermarket to buy things.

Li Rongxiu pushed the trolley in a novel way, and looked at the aunts and aunts coming and going around, and these aunts also looked at them curiously.Li Rongxiu smiled at Shen Yujun and said, "Don't you think we are particularly out of place here?"

Shen Yujun smiled, and with his slender fingers picked up a box of lettuce wrapped in plastic film on the shelf, and threw it into the trolley.He asked, "What kind of food do you like to eat?"

"I'll get endive and spinach, as well as kelp and sweet potato slices..." Li Rongxiu pushed the trolley and pointed, then saw another freshly sliced ​​meat in front of the counter, and asked suddenly: "You said... …If you put some fish balls, meat slices and crab sticks in Malatang, what would it taste like?”

Shen Yujun knew the elegant meaning after hearing the string song, and immediately said with a smile: "Actually, we can also eat hot pot."

Li Rongxiu nodded, and said without principle: "Then eat hot pot. By the way, is your hot pot delicious?"

"It can satisfy your taste. I also have an ancestral recipe." Shen Yujun teased with a smile, and led Li Rongxiu to the area where the condiments were sold, and began to choose various condiments.By the way, I also asked Li Rongxiu: "Would you rather eat bone broth or seafood pot?"

"Seafood, it's not so greasy."

Shen Yujun nodded, and went to buy crabs, clams, prawns, day lily, etc. as seasonings for the bottom of the pot.

Li Rongxiu raised his eyebrows when he saw Shen Yujun's skillful actions and professional appearance, thinking that he looked quite decent.

While Shen Yujun was shopping for groceries, Li Rongxiu picked up a few packets of potato chips and shrimp crackers and threw them into the car, thinking that if Shen Yujun's cooking was too unpalatable, he would just eat potato chips.

After thinking about it, I bought some iced drinks and beer and put them in the trolley.After all, it is eating hot pot, how can there be no beer!

The housewives coming and going around looked at the two handsome boys very curiously, thinking that this pair of shopping malls was so weird.

When paying the bill, I could still hear the little girls queuing up behind me whispering excitedly, lowering their voices and shouting "Attack and suffer". Talking about the two of us."

Sure enough, without saying a word, the two little girls behind could not help but exclaim.Shen Yujun looked back, and the two little girls immediately bowed their heads like quails and remained silent.Shen Yujun shook his head and chuckled, and bit Li Rongxiu's ear and said, "I didn't expect the country to be so open now."

Li Rongxiu thought to himself, what is this.If you wait until more than ten years later, even filming a TV series or movie is blatantly brazen.This little scream, that is, sprinkling water!

After paying the bill, the two returned to the car with two large bags of ingredients.Shen Yujun drove into a high-end community named Fenglin Valley opposite the supermarket.Li Rongxiu has known Shen Yujun for so long, and he has never entered Shen Yujun's house, so he is a little curious at this moment.

Shen Yujun watched Li Rongxiu poke his head out of the car window, looking curiously at the surrounding scenery, and smiled slightly.

Because of his different growing environment and experience from others, Shen Yujun didn't have a good impression of luxury buildings like big courtyards and villas.When he had enough money to buy property, Shen Yujun chose such a convenient and popular place, and chose a 150-square-meter three-bedroom apartment.All the decorations in the home are designed and selected by him personally.Although he seldom came back to live these years in order not to arouse the suspicion of the Shen family.But every now and then when I come back for the weekend, there’s always a visceral, homely feeling.

Of course, according to Shen Yujun's emphasis on family, he has never brought anyone in in the past few years.

Li Rongxiu was the first one, and Shen Yujun also hoped that he would be the only one.

While thinking wildly, Shen Yujun parked the car in the garage below, and then carried the ingredients into the elevator with Li Rongxiu.

The house Shen Yujun bought was on the thirteenth floor. There were three houses on the entire floor, and his house was the one on the far left.While standing at the door of the corridor to take out the keys, it happened that the old lady of Zhongmen's family also came back from shopping. Seeing Shen Yujun bringing a boy back, the old lady greeted warmly: "Isn't this Xiao Shen? I haven't seen you for a while. Yes. Is this bringing your classmates back for dinner?"

Shen Yujun turned around and replied with a smile, "Yes, I just came back from my hometown. Happy New Year, Grandma Li."

Li Rongxiu was standing behind him with a plastic bag in his hand, looking at Shen Yujun who had a calm and sunny demeanor with a face full of surprise.In other words, it was the first time he had seen Shen Yujun treat others so kindly——

It's not like him at all.

After Shen Yujun opened the door, he turned around and saw Li Rongxiu who was in a daze, smiled and touched his head, and said, "Come in."
