Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 158
Li Xiao subconsciously glanced at the top of the phone, and the signal that had been disappearing was finally restored.

It is estimated that it is because there are no obstacles from the mountains, or because of other reasons.

Li Xiao swiped open the screen.

The screen saver interface froze for half a second, then

【You have new news】

【You have new news】

【You have new news】

A string of green Weixin information prompts appear
???

Li Xiao subconsciously clicked on one of the message prompts, and immediately jumped to Weixin's interface.

The column of information directly turns into red 99+
Seeing the message that popped up, he froze for a moment.

[? ? ?still there?Please reply? ! 】

He glanced quickly and pulled directly to the initial reply
【I do! 】

The reply time is 1 minute after your last message.

???

Li Xiao looked confused, did he travel to a parallel time and space?

He obviously waited just now, but he quickly figured it out.

It's not that he has traveled to the usual time and space, but, what the hell, the mobile phone has no signal just now! ! ! !
Li Xiao patted his forehead, and quickly checked the more than 100 messages Jiang Yingxue sent to him just now.

It was full of concerns and doubts, and Li Xiao didn't dare to continue browsing slowly.

Quickly type in the chat box
[Just now in the mountains, there is no signal, sorry, sorry. 】

After the information port was sent, the green unread mark dimmed within a second and turned into a gray read mark within a few seconds.

Jiang Yingxue sent a message
[It’s good that you’re fine, you scared me to death!I didn’t respond to text messages, and told me that I wasn’t in the service area when I called, so I’m ready to call the police]

[Sorry, sorry, I'm on Lingyin Mountain, the signal was disconnected for almost an hour]

[It’s fine as long as it’s okay, I’m really going to be scared to death by you. 】

On the other side of the phone, Jiang Yingxue rubbed her red eyes.

For an hour just now, she didn't know how she got here.

She thought that she was the kind of lone star in a romance novel, who specially restrained her partner, otherwise, how could it be possible that she just sent a message to the person she had confirmed the relationship with, and the other party messaged her?

Could it be that a meteorite fell from the sky and killed him?

Or did he travel back hundreds of years the moment he received his confession?

After all, it is not in the service area, not that the other party has shut down.

She was weak and helpless, and she didn't dare to tell others, after all, this matter was too bizarre.

Just when she was about to collapse and was about to call the police, Li Xiao's profile picture lit up again, and she sent a message.

See the dialog that appears in the

[Just now in the mountains, there is no signal, sorry, sorry. 】

Jiang Yingxue was about to cry at her own stupidity, she was so stupid to death, what was going on in her mind all day long?
No, I have to delete all the movies on the computer later, wait, delete half of them, otherwise I won’t be able to watch them.

Keep [The Lonely and Great God: Ghost], or [Western World]?or
After watching Li Xiao finish reading the phone, the expression on his face changed from relaxed to joyful.

With a chuckle, Fujiwara took out a Zipo lighter from his pocket and lit it smartly.

The cigarette I rolled myself was lit, and the red cigarette butt flickered on the platform of the top of the mountain, like a breathing star.

A puff of smoke was spit out by Fujiwara, and the smell of smoke enveloped him instantly.

In the smoke, I looked at Li Xiao, who was giggling and replying to the message.

Fujiwara shook his head again, young is good, one or two text messages can make him happy so easily.

It seems that I haven't smiled so happily for a long time, right?
Suddenly, there was a vibration in the pants, Fujiwara put the cigarette in his mouth, and took out his phone to see

【Old field】

Fujiwara frowned, wondering why the other party was looking for him?

However, after so many years of friendship, he still pressed the connect button, intending that if the other party wanted to borrow money, he would pretend that the signal was not good and hang up directly.

After connecting, Lao Tian's familiar voice came from the opposite side

[Takumi, there is a 45-50-year-old Lao Jifuchi Cup here. It is your favorite mountain track. Are you interested in participating? 】

45-50 year old old man's cup?
Fujiwara froze for half a second, smiled wryly and shook his head

[Forget it, how can I be free, I can't find someone to take over, you guys have fun. 】

As he spoke, his finger moved towards the hang up button.

I'm about to stuff my phone back into my trouser pocket, old man's cup, what a joke, everyone is in their seventies and eighties, can they hold the steering wheel firmly?
【It's really a pity if you don't come, Xia Shu applied to be a navigator, and thought he could see your two swords merged?Well then, I will contact you next time, bye. 】

Pat, the red stars swirled and fell to the ground, then bounced up and turned into countless fine stars.

The name he thought he had long forgotten reappeared in his mind, and his lips trembled

[Who are you talking about signing up for the navigator? 】

[Natsuki, Mogi Natsuki.Why ask this?You are not free again, well, goodbye. 】

[Wait, I just made a joke for you.I don't want to open this broken rental! ! By the way, when is the game?In addition, Xia Shu really wants to participate? 】

【Hahaha, I already know your bad behavior.Xia Shu has been divorced for several years, but she has been staying in Sakura Country, and only this year is Dahan Country. His husband Shawen has been treating her badly. They separated not long after they got married, and you just don’t know. . 】

【is that so? ? ! ! 】

[It's not that I'm fucking talking about you, is the championship really that important? 】

[It's been 12 years, Xia Shu has been your navigator for 12 years, is it really not worth a championship? 】

【Do you think Xia Shu really likes Chauvin?Back then, she just wanted to annoy you. 】

[Come on, I have signed up for you a long time ago, hurry up and come back to train for me. 】

[Isn't it just a championship, it has to be the National Cup?Isn't the champion of our own group the champion? 】

[Come on, I'm waiting for you! 】

【it is good】

[Then, I'll send you the address, so arrive early. 】

【it is good】

Takumi hung up the phone, trembling, trying to take another cigarette out of his pants.

But thinking of the nicotine in the cigarette, which would affect the reaction speed of the brain, the hand that touched the cigarette case immediately retracted.

Trembling, he put the phone back into the bag, and just as he turned around, he met Li Xiao who was standing behind him at some point.

Takumi was taken aback for a moment,
"Are you done talking?"

Li Xiao nodded with a smile
"Yeah, we're done talking, let's go."

"Okay, let's go."

"Uncle!"

Li Xiao suddenly shouted
"Ok?"

"You just said that."

"You extend the time to 3 years, if not to 5 years"

"You'll find out, oh, it turns out that's all there is to it."

Takumi smiled and nodded.

"Ah."

Back at the apartment, I turned on the tap and took a hot shower.

Li Xiao returned to the bed with ease.

He turned on his phone and replied in the chat box
[Yes, I should be going home in these two days, and I haven't been home for more than a year. 】

[Then, be careful in the car, and, recently, we may not be able to leave school, and we are all studying for the final exam, so we can only meet again next year! 】

[It's okay, it's still a long time. 】

【Um. 】

ladies and gentlemen:
The plane is scheduled to arrive at Guangzhou Baiyun Airport in 15 minutes, and the ground temperature is 16 degrees Celsius.

The plane is descending.Please return to your original position and sit down, fasten your seat belt, put away the small table, and adjust the seat back to the normal position.

All personal computers and electronic equipment must be turned off.

Please confirm whether your hand items are properly placed.Later, we will dim the cabin lights.

Thank you!

Get the luggage from the check-in place, and then go to the pet depository to pick up Xiaolan who is a little frightened.

Ignoring Xiaolan's chatter, Li Xiao walked out of the hall dragging the suitcase.

[Due to reading needs, Cantonese has been converted into Mandarin]

"Cousin, this way!"

A tall, dark-skinned man waved his hands and shouted.

The man was wearing a black long-sleeved T-shirt, a black thin windbreaker, and a pair of leggings, which looked very clean.

But the faint fishy smell emanating from his body made the crowd who picked him up quietly stay away from this man.

Hearing the man's familiar voice, Li Xiao quickly raised her hand in response

"Cousin."

The man was Li Xiao's second uncle's son, Liang Yansheng.

Li Xiao patted his cousin on the shoulder
"I've told my second uncle that I'll just go back by myself, and I'll trouble you to go."

Liang Yansheng waved his hand
"I have a car, and it's not far away. Come by and give my cousin a ride, can't you?"

He deliberately pretended to hesitate and said
"Oh oh oh, I see, my cousin thinks my van is not up-to-date, right?"

Li Xiao secretly sighed, how can I get on the way here, Baiyun Airport is on the outskirts of Yangcheng, and my cousin's delivery places are all in the urban area of ​​Yangcheng.

However, the other party said he was on the way, and he couldn't tell the truth. Seeing his funny appearance, he quickly pushed his shoulder
"Alright, alright, let's go."

The two quickly got into Liang Yansheng's van with their things, and the smell in the van became stronger.

After all, this is a truck.

The two rows of seats at the back had already been dismantled, so of course Li Xiao could only sit in the front.

As soon as Liang Yansheng got into the car, he opened all the windows and touched his head in embarrassment.
"Cousin, bear with it for a while, and after a while, the smell won't be so strong after it's ventilated."

"What are you talking about, it's tasteless."

In fact, how could it be tasteless, but my cousin ran so far to pick me up, even if there are long nails on the stool, he has to sit with his teeth gritted.

Besides, although there was a fishy smell, it wasn't too heavy, and he could even vaguely smell the air freshener.

It is estimated that before coming to pick him up, he not only washed the car, but also sprayed it with freshener.

However, those who have some life experience understand that some odors remain for a long time, and it is not so easy to remove.

The car started slowly and drove out of the airport. After the air was ventilated, the fishy smell really faded away.

"By the way, how is your business doing recently?"

"Recently? That's it. It's okay, but there have been a lot of closed stores recently, many of which have closed down, and they still owe us money. Hey, it's difficult."

"You can't settle now?"

"Of course the new store is closed now, but after a long cooperation, there must be a billing period. Hey, just the day before yesterday, a restaurant that I had been cooperating with since my father's time also closed down."

"Changhui Hotel?"

Li Xiao hesitated for a moment and asked, he still knew the second uncle's affairs quite well.

Because, before I went to study in Hangzhou, I often went to play with my second uncle during the winter and summer vacations.

So I have been swayed by my ears and eyes, and I know a lot of things.

"Yes, yes, that's the one. I didn't expect my cousin to remember it."

"Don't you remember? Every time the second uncle delivers the goods last, and then takes me and you to have morning tea."

Li Xiao had some nostalgia in his eyes. Both the second uncle and the third uncle were actually engaged in fishing, but one was mainly fishing and the other was mainly selling.

In the past, when I came to play with my second uncle during the summer vacation, I would help out by the way, and then after delivering all the goods, if I was not busy, my second uncle would take him and my cousin to drink morning tea.

Barbecued pork buns, rice rolls, shrimp dumplings, dry steamed siu mai, steamed pork ribs, fresh shrimp and vegetable dumplings, custard buns, Mala cake, ginger milk, carrot cake, preserved egg and lean meat porridge, quicksand buns, chicken feet.
At that time, the material conditions were not so rich, even if the second uncle could get a discounted price there, he would not be willing to pay more.

Occasionally, I bring two children to eat meat, and usually three people order 2 cages of steamed stuffed buns, and then order [-] cages of dim sum.

There are not many things, but one big and two small, three people can eat very happily.

Li Xiao still remembers that when drinking morning tea, she still pushed the cart and called out the name of dim sum.

However, this form has long since disappeared with the rapid rise in labor costs.

Nowadays, many morning teas are even made to order, because the number of people drinking morning tea has long since dropped significantly.

People's life pace is too fast, one by one 996 workers, only on weekends or holidays, the family can stop their hurried steps, drink tea and chat.

"There is no way, the labor is high, the shop rent is high, the cost is high, and the competition is huge."

"However, [Changhui Hotel] should actually be able to earn money, but the previous boss retired and replaced it with his son. His son doesn't care about tens of thousands of dollars a month at all."

"I heard that it was because of the land that the developer was interested in, so the new owner directly closed [Changhui Hotel], but fortunately, the payment was settled for us."

While chatting, the two drove towards the direction of the second uncle's house.

In fact, Li Xiao could have gone home directly.

But since he thinks that there is still a long time before the Chinese New Year, and it seems boring to go home for too long, his live broadcasting business is considered to be done.

The second uncle and the third uncle are running an online store again, so he wanted to help the two uncles promote it.

After all, if the fat and water don't flow to outsiders' fields, helping someone is not helping, so it is reasonable for the nephew to help the uncle to promote it.

Besides, the relationship between the three families has always been very good, so we need to help.

Yangjiang is more than two hours away from Baiyun Airport, and the two chatted all the way.

It can be said to talk about everything.

In fact, the second uncle's business is pretty good, the only bad thing is that there are too many bad debts, and many stores close after only a few months.

It's good for the shop owner to give a little bit, but many of them just put on a face and refuse to give money, and the second uncle can't help but spend thousands of dollars with him.

This led to Li Xiao often hearing her mother's worries about the two uncles' homes on the phone recently.

That's why Li Xiao didn't go home directly, but went to his uncle first.

The second uncle's home is very close to the third uncle's home. Without him, they both live in the village, so of course they are close.

When the car drove into the village, Li Xiao looked at the familiar and unfamiliar scene with emotion.

I have not been here for more than 5 years. To be precise, except for visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year, he has not been here for 5 years.

Pulling the suitcase into the house, there was no one in the house, it was empty, Li Xiao took out his phone and checked the time.

At this time, if there is no accident, the second uncle and the second aunt are busy.

Although the second uncle's family is mainly engaged in sales, they often go out to sea to fish by themselves.

After all, in my mother's small village called Donglai Village, almost every household makes a living by fishing. When they can earn money, they are not willing to give up their fishing skills.

"Cousin, drink, do you want something to eat?" Liang Yansheng asked while handing over a bottle of Fat House Happy Water.

Although it's only early 11 o'clock, it's okay to eat early if you're hungry.

Li Xiao took over the happy water from the fat house. Although he is not a fat house, it would be nice if he could be happy. Why should he care about his career?
he shook his head and said

"I ate airplane meals on the plane. By the way, will the second uncle come back to eat at noon?"

Liang Yansheng shook his head

"Probably not." After speaking, he yawned.

Li Xiao was stunned for a moment, but immediately realized that although my cousin didn't go to sea, he usually had to take two buses.

一趟车是凌晨3-4点出发，6-7点就能到羊城的酒楼，送完一轮就到了8点左右了。

The other trip departs at 1:5 p.m. to restock the restaurant in Yangcheng before [-]:[-] p.m. However, relatively speaking, the work in the afternoon is much easier.

Li Xiao reckoned that his cousin delivered the goods early today. After all, he had to go to Baiyun Airport in the suburbs and wash the car, which would definitely take time.

Seeing the obvious dark circles on his cousin's face, he quickly said
"I'll just greet myself. Aren't you going to deliver in the afternoon? Go and have a rest. I'll just go shopping in the town."

"That's good." Liang Yansheng refused, but immediately yawned again.

Li Xiao hurriedly pushed his cousin, who was a lot stronger than him, towards his own room.

"Give me a good rest. There are tens of thousands of roads, and safety comes first. If you don't have a good rest, do you think it's your business?"

"In case you don't have enough energy to drive and there is a small scratch, it is a small matter to affect the delivery."

"In case something goes wrong, what will you do? What about the second uncle and the second mother?"

"Hurry up and sleep for me. I came here every year before college, so I'm not familiar with it."

"No, cousin, this place has changed a lot in the past few years!"

"Hey, it's not right, it hasn't changed much, and I don't want to go shopping. It's okay, don't worry about me, anyway, I have two mobile phones, I can't lose them, and I don't have to wait for me to eat at night. Come back."

Liang Yansheng wanted to say something, but the door was already closed.

[Summary, the Hangzhou chapter is over, and the next chapter will start with other maps, the chapter of Guangdong Province] (Contributions are welcome)

[Open the Dahan Food Festival and start eating and drinking everywhere] (Contributions welcome)

[At first, I thought, after all, the men and women are mainly in different places, so we should first determine the relationship between the hero and heroine. 】

[I queued up for a long time today to get the vaccine, so the next chapter will be half an hour late, don't wait, read it tomorrow, sorry]
