C3828 Childhood Sweethearts
He was about 1.75 meters tall, and his suit was very well-ironed. His entire person seemed to have become taller by a few degrees. There were a few people behind him, making him stand out from the crowd.
His hair was a little long, but it did not give off the kind of hooliganism that ordinary young people have. Instead, it gave off a carefree and dissolute temperament, and his eyes were spirited.
"It really is you. I thought I recognized the wrong person. I didn't expect to see you here. It's almost New Year's Eve. I thought you would be in the capital." Cai Donglun took two steps forward and immediately noticed Dongfang Qingyu. He retracted his outstretched arm very naturally.
"You... Didn't you go to America? When you left, you said that you might not come back in this life. Why did you suddenly come back?" Lin Huo's excited expression quickly calmed down, and his tone was filled with resentment.
"It's a long story. It's hard to say what will happen in the future!" Cai Donglun shook his head lightly and sighed. He looked at Dongfang Qingyu and asked, "This is...? Your friend?"
"My husband!" Lin Huo took the initiative to hug Dongfang Qingyu's arm, and his voice became gentle, "This is our daughter."
"You... Married?" Cai Donglun was stunned and could not believe it.
"I fell in love with my hubby at first sight. Last year, he gave birth to our daughter. Is he very happy for me?" Lin Huo's face revealed a happy expression.
"Yes, yes. Huohuo, I'm very happy for you to be able to find your happiness. I'm just a little surprised that you're looking for me this way after getting married. Hello, I lost my composure!" Cai Donglun reached out his hand to Dongfang Qingyu.
"Brother Donglun is a playmate that I grew up with. Because he is older than me, I often followed him to play when I was young. Later on, he went to America to develop. I thought that we would never see each other again in this life." Cai Donglun said with a bitter smile on his face.
"Hello, Dongfang Qingyu!" Dongfang Qingyu stretched out her hand, and Cai Donglun's hand was a little cold.
"It's the first time we met, and I didn't bring any gift. Sorry for being rude." Cai Donglun revealed an apologetic expression.
"Madamus was rather lonely when he was young, so of course he was also quite mischievous. You don't have many playmates. You are Catastrophe's playmate, so you are one of us. Meeting you is the best gift. As long as your intentions are met, it's fine. It's just a worldly possession, there's no need to fuss about it." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"We're all here for a meal, right? Why don't we have a meal together?" Cai Donglun said enthusiastically, "Could it be that meeting here is also a kind of fate?"
"Next time, it won't be convenient to bring the child around. My daughter doesn't like to be lively. She has a quiet personality." Lin Catastrophe said.
"If that's the case, then we can only do it next time." Cai Donglun was very regretful. If it were for other reasons, he would naturally not give up. However, he could not refute the excuse of using a child as an excuse.
"Bye!" Dongfang Qingyu and Cai Donglun waved their hands to bid farewell, but Lin Huo carried Jian Jia and walked into the private room without looking back.
Dongfang Qingyu was the one who ordered the dishes. During this period of time, Lin Huo did not speak a word and had a lot of things on his mind.
"Let me carry it!" Dongfang Qingyu put down the menu and took Jian Jia from Lin Huo. Perhaps sensing that her mother was in a bad mood, Jian Jia calmed down for the first time.
"I..." Lin Huo looked at Dongfang Qingyu and wanted to say something but hesitated.
"If you want to say it, then say it. If you don't want to say it, then just leave it in your stomach. I'm not that petty." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"There's nothing that I can't say. It's just that I'm a little embarrassed." Lin Huo said.
"Isn't it just my first love? What's there to be embarrassed about?" Dongfang Qingyu curled her lips.
"Not really!" Seeing that Dongfang Qingyu was jealous, Lin Huo quickly held his arm and acted like a spoiled child." He was the type of childhood sweetheart who was immature when he was young. He only had Brother Dong Lun by his side. At that time, he watched TV and vaguely knew the concept of marriage. Subconsciously, he thought that he would only marry Brother Dong Lun in this life. "
"And then?" Dongfang Qingyu asked.
"Because I was younger, and when I was a kid, Donglun-ge took me everywhere. Donglun-ge taught me a lot of things, and he was very smart, he knew everything, riding, driving, shooting, gun, racing... When I was a kid, I had a wide range of interests, but I was influenced by Donglun-ge, and then when I was older, and a little more sensible, Donglun-ge went to America to develop." Catastrophe Lin said.
"Is it just a relationship that ends just like that?" Dongfang Qingyu asked.
"I can't say whether it's love or kinship. When I was young, I didn't know that much. I just felt that Brother Donglun was very close to me. When he went to America, I was sad for a long time." Lin Huo said.
"What happened when I was a child? I thought it was something big and made me nervous." Dongfang Qingyu snorted. "Not to mention Brother Dong Lun, even if it was Uncle Dong Lun, I would still make him obedient."
"Brother Dong Lun is a very proud person. Back then, he said that he would go to the United States and wouldn't come back for the rest of his life. Unless he returns to his roots when he is old. Now that he has returned, he must have encountered something." Lin Huo said.
"Alright, I understand. If you have any difficulties, I will help you if I can. Just treat it as repaying the favor of him accompanying you when you were young." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"We'll see when the time comes. I don't know what the situation is right now." Lin Huo said.
"I always thought that you were heartless when you were young. I didn't expect you to hide it so deeply!" Dongfang Qingyu said.
"What? I'm also a girl, okay? When I was young, I was especially ladylike." Lin Huo was unconvinced.
"Little one!" Dongfang Qingyu's name was Jian Jia.
Jian Jia raised her head and looked at him, not understanding what the adults were talking about, but she listened with relish, because she knew that the two people beside her were the closest people to her.
"When you grow up, you have to act like a mother or a father!" Dongfang Qingyu asked.
"Daddy!" Jian Jia thought for a while and replied.
"Let's see, the eyes of the crowd, no, the eyes of my daughter are bright." Dongfang Qingyu looked at Lin Huo proudly.
"Girl, you are still young, so I don't even know what you are talking about." Lin Huo was naturally unconvinced.
"If little girl is a little older, you don't need to ask." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"What does that mean?" Lin Huo was puzzled.
"Little girl, when you grow up, you will be able to tell. There is no need to ask." Dongfang Qingyu said.
As they were speaking, the dishes had already been served. Dongfang Qingyu's appetite was very large, and the family of three was actually two adults who were eating. Jian Jia could not eat much, and Dongfang Qingyu had ordered four dishes and a soup, but he had clearly underestimated the kindness of the Bamboo Forest House. The dog meat was served in a basin, and with the seaweed and other seasonings, there was almost a basin worth of dog meat. It was enough for seven or eight people to eat a meal.
There was also quite a lot of fried rice and sausages in the pot. There was a steamed fish and no chili. It was mainly prepared for Jian Jia. There were more than two catties. The only thing that was less was vegetables. The oil and wheat vegetables could not be stir-fried more than once, or it would turn yellow and not taste good.
The soup was stewed with mushroom with the Old Mother
Because they were new customers, the Bamboo Forest House even gave them a free dish, Sharp Stir-Fried Pork with Spiced Pepper, which went with the wine and the rice when they came for the first time.
"No wonder the business is so good. You have skills and know how to do favors." Dongfang Qingyu tasted a mouthful of stir-fried meat with sharp peppers and revealed a satisfied expression.
There was a lot of stir-fried meat with sharp pepper everywhere, and many people knew how to stir-fry them. However, the deliciousness of the stir-fried meat was a skill. The meat had to enter the sharp peppers, and the sharp peppers could not be too cooked, or else it would affect the texture. It had to be cooked as well. The spicy taste was too strong, not too much, not too little. It was just right, and the taste of the chili had to enter the pork as well. Dongfang Qingyu had also eaten a lot of stir-fried meat with sharp peppers, and none of them felt as good as the one in front of her.
"The taro lotus is also very delicious. Didn't you say you know how to pickle the taro lotus? Next time let's see your cooking skills." When Lin Huo was pregnant, he didn't eat much sourness, but recently, he had become obsessed with sourness.
"Forget it again." Dongfang Qingyu patted her thigh. The pickled taro lotus had to be cut off during the winter. When it was about time to dig out the taro seeds, it would be cut off to dry for a day or two. Then, it would be pickled. Now that it was almost the New Year, there was no more taro lotus.
"There are a few things that you remember about the things you promised me. Jian Jia gave him a warning. Every time, you would say that you would go with me. In the end, you only went once or twice, and I went by myself most of the time." Lin Huo said.
Dongfang Qingyu could only lower his head and eat without daring to retort. In this aspect, he really did not do it well. He was a person who would do what he said. If he could not do it, he would definitely not agree to it. However, when he was facing his own people, he often went back on his word.
Eating dog meat in the winter was very nutritious. However, now many hotels no longer provided wine and meat. The reason was that some people were making a ruckus. They said that dogs were good friends of humans and should not be treated as food. Big hotels paid a lot of attention to their reputation. Considering the impact, they did not even make dog meat anymore.
Obviously, the Bamboo Forest House didn't care about that. Besides, the customers who came to the Bamboo Forest House were all high-end customers. They weren't so stubborn.
"Why don't you drive?" Dongfang Qingyu asked Lin Huo.
"Don't you only drink when there are a lot of people?" Lin Huo saw through his thoughts with a glance.
"In the face of this big pot of dog meat, I feel sorry if I don't drink some wine." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"You can drink wine, but you can't be reckless." Lin Huo said.
"Don't worry. I am a real man. I am calm and keep my virginity." Dongfang Qingyu immediately asked the waiter to bring the wine over.
"Do you want to heat it up or freeze it?" The waiter asked.
"Is there any ice in the rice wine?" Dongfang Qingyu was curious.
"You have hot food here. Drink some frozen food, and the taste will be even better." The waiter looked at the dishes on the table.
"Alright, I'll listen to you. Give me two jars of frozen rice wine." Dongfang Qingyu said. He waited for the waiter to go and get the wine, but to his surprise, the waiter took out his walkie-talkie and shouted, "In private room number 18, two jars of frozen rice wine." In less than a minute, a waiter dressed like Song Chao came in with two jars of wine.
"Objective, please take your time! If there's anything, just tell me at any time! "The waiter brought the waiter and left the room, causing Dongfang Qingyu and Lin Huo to be stunned.
