On the self-cultivation of a foodie

The self-service barbecue restaurant opposite Jiang Haiyan's house, which has been renovated for a long time, finally opened.

Because the grand opening bonus of [-] yuan can eat as much as you want for two hours, there was a huge crowd of people on the day of the official opening, and the line of people almost lined up from the entrance of the barbecue shop to the door of Jiang Haiyan's house.

In order to grab a good seat, Jiang Haiyan set the alarm clock, so early this morning, he was woken up by the ringing of his mobile phone.

"It's so noisy...turn off the alarm clock..."

Jiang Haiyan, who hadn't woken up, buried his face in the pillow and complained. After the phone rang several times, his drowsy brain finally woke up gradually.

He silently pulled his face out of the pillow, found the ringing mobile phone from the bedside table, and turned off the alarm clock.

The originally noisy room suddenly became quiet, and even seemed a little deserted.

Jiang Haiyan put down his phone and turned around, only to find that half of the bed next to him was empty, there was nothing there, no one who could wake him up with a delicious breakfast early in the morning, and no one who could wake him up with his phone The person who kindly helps him to turn off the alarm clock when the first sound of the alarm clock rings.

He paused for a while before getting out of bed to wash up.

After leaving the bathroom, Jiang Haiyan returned to the living room, his eyes drifted unconsciously to the kitchen again, but the figure that was busy early in the morning was missing in the kitchen, he lowered his eyes in disappointment, his peripheral vision was Seeing the empty table with nothing on it, but there should be a table full of rich and delicious breakfast, he couldn't help but feel even more disappointed.

After conscientiously disguised and fully armed, he went out.

It is completely different from the world of comprehension that has experienced a great turmoil. The life of mortals has not been affected or changed in any way, and everything is as usual. For the world of cultivation, it is almost the end of the day. It's just an ordinary day without any difference.

Although the Super Invincible Big Eater has been over for a while, Jiang Haiyan's popularity is still high. He still has to disguise himself when he usually goes out, otherwise he may be recognized by fans.

When Jiang Haiyan came to the barbecue restaurant, there was already a long queue at the entrance of the barbecue restaurant. He looked at the front of the line that seemed to have no end, and went to queue at the end with a depressed face. However, this barbecue restaurant is very Humanized, in order not to let these guests waiting in line get bored, a TV was actually moved out and entertainment gossip was played. Many guests who lowered their heads and played with their mobile phones were attracted by the host’s exaggerated style of hosting, and put down their mobile phones one after another. It looks like gossip.

Jiang Haiyan looked up, and suddenly found that the host of this entertainment gossip show was very familiar. He was the host of the super invincible big eater... Wait, isn't this guy the host of a gourmet show?

He was wondering, but soon he was attracted by the content of the program itself.

"...Last week, the newly promoted Big Stomach King artist Qin Nianxiao participated in the Ultimate Invincible Big Stomach King held by the Country R Food Competition League and successfully won the championship. Another superstar in the food competition world has appeared!"

The ultimate invincible big eater?

Jiang Haiyan paused for a moment, and quickly realized that someone from the food competition league sent him an invitation. It seemed to be a heavyweight competition in country R, ​​but because of the "Desert Island Food Journey" program The shooting conflicted, so he pushed it away.

Unexpectedly, that guy Qin Nianxiao actually went to participate and won the championship directly.

Jiang Haiyan laughed. He knew very well that if he hadn't participated in this Super Invincible Big Eater, the final winner would probably be Qin Nianxiao. It's amazing, but it's just that he met him, a non-human cheating creature.

Unexpectedly, the twists and turns of fate made Qin Nianxiao get what he deserved.

Jiang Haiyan sighed a few words with emotion, took out his mobile phone and was about to send a congratulatory text message to Qin Nianxiao, his mobile phone screen was still on the Weibo interface, and he was about to quit Weibo, but suddenly found that the Weibo hot search at this time It turned out to be - "Xiao Xianyou Silver Horse Award Best Actor".

Xiao Xianyou?The winner of the Silver Horse Award?

Although Jiang Haiyan is not too involved in the entertainment industry, he also knows that the Silver Horse Award is a heavyweight film award that is as famous as the Golden Duck Award... That guy Xiao Xianyou actually won the Best Actor?

He couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.

Not only Jiang Haiyan, but many people on Weibo exploded. After all, not long ago, Xiao Xianyou was regarded as an idol by many people. Every day, fans would fight and tear each other over whether he had acting skills... like this A guy who suddenly took the Best Actor!

At the moment, some people are tearing up shady scenes and unspoken rules behind the scenes on Weibo, but many people choose to congratulate and wish. After all, compared with some other awards, the Silver Horse Award is relatively open and fair. To tear the Silver Horse Award It's a little untenable to have a shady scene, not to mention that Xiao Xianyou, the best actor, is actually a little watery, because this year's best actor was also nominated for Qin Hesheng. If Qin Hesheng didn't pass away suddenly, the best actor would definitely be awarded to Born by Qin He.

Jiang Haiyan couldn't help laughing again, it seems that Xiao Xianyou, the unlucky guy who was either haunted by ghosts or haunted by ghosts, finally had a good luck.

He immersed himself in Weibo for a while, and finally he was in line.

After getting the number plate from the cute-looking waiter girl, he walked into the barbecue restaurant and sat down in a corner with fewer people.

Because it is a self-service barbecue restaurant, Jiang Haiyan needs to pick up the food by himself. In addition to the staple food, this barbecue restaurant also provides a lot of fruits and drinks that can be taken by oneself.

Jiang Haiyan didn't want to attract attention, so he planned to eat in a low-key way, but as soon as he smelled the delicious smell of barbecue, he couldn't control himself immediately, roasted one dish after another, ate one dish after another, and stopped at all. not come down.

His heroic way of eating finally caught the attention of those who cared. After staring at him for a long time, the cute waiter girl quietly turned and went back to the kitchen.

"It's not good! It's not good! Boss! Someone is messing around!"

The man who was cutting meat with a kitchen knife stopped suddenly, frowned and said, "Someone messed up?"

"A man who can eat very well came outside! He has been eating desperately, and if he continues to eat like this, he will eat up all the meat!" The waiter girl pointed outside.

"A man who can eat?" The man who was washing vegetables paused and raised his head. "Is he thin and gentle, but he looks a bit lazy?"

The waiter girl's eyes widened suddenly, with a look of surprise on her face: "Boss! How do you know?"

The man washing the vegetables paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "I'll go out and meet him."

The man cutting vegetables also stopped, his expression seemed a little nervous: "I'm with you."

The man washing vegetables gave the man chopping vegetables a sideways look: "Are you still afraid that I will run away?"

The man who cut the vegetables pursed his lips: "Let's go together."

The man washing the vegetables smiled helplessly: "Okay, let's go together."

The waitress can only look up at the ceiling silently. Working here is not tiring and the salary is high. The only disadvantage is that you have to prevent being blinded by the loving light of the two bosses anytime and anywhere...

Jiang Haiyan was eating in full swing, but when he looked up, he saw a familiar face. The chopsticks in his hand stopped suddenly. After a while, he put down the chopsticks and laughed: "...It's you?"

The man in plain clothes and an apron in front of him was Zheng Youqian whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Ever since Zheng Youqian eloped at his engagement banquet, Jiang Haiyan had never seen Zheng Youqian again, nor had he heard any news about him. Looking at Zheng Youqian, who was both familiar and unfamiliar, Jiang Haiyan couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

Every time he saw Zheng Youqian before, this guy always looked meticulous in a suit and leather shoes. Even he, an otaku who didn't know any suit brand, could tell that the suit he was wearing must be very expensive. A kind of aura of a cynical rich young master.

But now Zheng Youqian is not only wearing ordinary cheap supermarket goods, but also wearing an apron with a certain peanut oil advertisement printed on his body, and on his feet are cheap and inferior cross drags that you can buy a pair of for ten yuan from a small street stall. The dress up and down could not be more down-to-earth.

This kind of Zheng Youqian is completely different from the previous high-ranking young master of the Zheng family. Jiang Haiyan almost couldn't believe his eyes because of the huge change. If he couldn't recognize tastes and people, he probably wouldn't be able to recognize Zheng Youqian.

Zheng Youqian smiled at the surprised Jiang Haiyan: "That's right, it's me."

Jiang Haiyan blinked: "Why are you here? Are you still dressed like this? Could it be that you are working here? You can't?" Although Zheng Youqian was deprived of the right of inheritance by the Zheng family, this guy was also the former young master of the Zheng family after all. It's impossible to have no savings at all, right?What's more, this guy is a senior management talent anyway, even if he loses the company, it won't be difficult to find a job in another company to make a living, right?Could it be that Zheng Tuhao teamed up with other companies to block Zheng You... But no matter how cruel Zheng Tuhao was, he wouldn't kill his own son, right?

"I opened this barbecue restaurant, and I am the boss," Zheng Youqian smiled slightly. "After working in the company for so long, it's not bad to enjoy such a leisurely life."

Jiang Haiyan looked at the apron on Zheng Yougan's body, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you sure your life is more leisurely now than before?"

Zheng Youqian smiled: "...At least I'm in a more relaxed mood."

Only then did Jiang Haiyan notice the other man behind Zheng Youqian, and he was taken aback for a moment.

The man behind Zheng Youqian was wearing the same style of casual clothes as Zheng Youqian, an apron with a certain range hood advertisement printed on his body, and a pair of cheap cross slippers on his feet, but because of his outstanding appearance, even if he was wearing a street stall , It still looks particularly eye-catching in a crowded barbecue restaurant.

Noticing Jiang Haiyan's scrutinizing gaze, Zheng You coughed dryly twice, and introduced: "His name is Ling Hei now, you can just call him Da Hei."

The man standing behind Zheng Youqian was naturally the black-scaled merman. Compared with the previous few meetings, the black-scaled merman looked more like a person at this time.

"Dahei?" Jiang Haiyan was pleased by the name, "Is there another Erhei?"

Although the black scale shark is ferocious in nature, its appearance is quite attractive, handsome and seductive. It fascinates a group of female customers in the barbecue restaurant to peek at it. The barbecue restaurant full of barbecue smells seems to be filled with pink. little bubbles.

Such a guy with a monstrous appearance who can act in some idol drama in minutes, is called Dahei... a down-to-earth name?

As soon as Jiang Haiyan finished speaking, a soft meow sounded not far away, and the next moment, a group of small orange figures rushed towards them.

"Meow meow meow~!"

Jiang Haiyan took a closer look, and it turned out to be an orange tabby cat. This little cat was born not long ago. Its small body is only a little bigger than the palm of an adult man. It is small and cute, and its personality seems to be particularly lively. When he reached the feet of the black-scaled merman, he hugged the black-scaled merman's trousers and rolled around.

"This is Erhei," Zheng Youqian said with a helpless smile, "it's our cat. We picked it up downstairs in our house a few days ago. It was a bit afraid of people at first, and it was very wary of people, because Dahei didn't like cats. The cat, we originally wanted to send it to a nearby animal shelter, but for some reason it seemed to like Dahei very much. When we left, it followed Dahei, very clingy, we Bring it back and raise it."

Jiang Haiyan felt a little bad all of a sudden, a fish actually raised a cat?

He silently watched the little cat scratching and biting the black-scaled merman's calf, and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth: "Actually, it's just greedy and wants to eat fish, right?"

Zheng Youqian smiled helplessly: "Maybe."

The black-scaled merman looked down at the squirming little cat, bent down and hugged the little cat, and then let the little cat gnaw and bite his fingers expressionlessly. It was useless in the first place, not to mention that the mermaid's skin was so hard that the little earth cat could only use his fingers to grind its teeth.

Jiang Haiyan looked at the two people, one cat... No, the harmonious scene of one person, one fish and one cat getting along together, felt melancholy for a second, then he smiled and asked: "So this barbecue restaurant is opened by you two? Since We are all acquaintances, so you can treat me to this meal!"

Zheng Youqian couldn't help being a little speechless. Originally, a meal of nine yuan for a self-service barbecue was almost a free meal. I didn't expect this guy to save even nine yuan, but he still nodded and smiled: "No problem, you helped me I have so many, in the future, if you come to our store to eat barbecue, I will give you a [-]% discount."

"Okay!" Jiang Haiyan chuckled, "Looks like I have to eat less, what if I eat and you go bankrupt?"

"Don't worry," Zheng Youqian smiled slightly, "I've been the eldest son of the Zheng family for so many years, and I still have a little savings. It's okay even if I don't work all my life to support Dahei and me, but people always have to find someone to help them. Do something, it happens that Dahei likes to eat barbecue, so we jointly opened a barbecue restaurant."

"Wealthy and powerful!" Jiang Haiyan realized that Zheng Youqian just opened a store for fun!

The two chatted for a while, and Zheng Youqian suddenly asked: "By the way, who is your family? Why didn't you come with me?"

Jiang Haiyan paused, then shrugged: "He's on a business trip."

"Business trip? Cultivators also have to go on a business trip?" Zheng Youqian heard about some things in the cultivation world after being with the black-scaled merman. Not much.

Jiang Haiyan smiled: "Yes."

"Where are you going on a business trip? What about the western magic world?" Zheng Youqian was very curious.

Jiang Haiyan shrugged and said with a smile, "Another small world."

After leaving the barbecue shop, Jiang Haiyan didn't want to go home, so he just wandered around... After all, there was no one at home who would wait for him to go back.

He walked, walked, and unknowingly came to the gate of a marine museum.

The Maritime Museum near his home has actually been built for several years, and there are quite a few tourists who usually go in to visit it, but because he was not very interested in these things before, after all, he could only look at them but not eat them, so he never set foot there.

But today, when he looked at the big signboard at the entrance of the Maritime Museum, he suddenly had a whim, bought a ticket and walked in.

This marine museum is not too big, but there are quite a lot of things on display. In addition to the facilities and equipment and specimens related to marine investigations, the glass tanks of the aquarium also keep many living marine animals.

Each museum has a commentator who is responsible for the explanation. Jiang Haiyan listened to the explanation boredly while looking at the exhibits casually. He followed the tourist team all the way forward. In the aquarium.

"Jellyfish are ancient creatures. They appeared a long time ago, earlier than dinosaurs. It is said that they can be traced back hundreds of millions of years..." A gentle voice sounded.

"My God! Jellyfish have lived for such a long time! Isn't that earlier than humans!"

"What do jellyfish eat?"

A group of curious children began to ask questions.

The man asked patiently: "Jellyfish eat small fish, shrimp and some plankton."

Another child asked curiously: "Then why eat jellyfish?"

The man paused before continuing to explain: "Sea turtles, sunfish, and sunfish all like to eat jellyfish, and sharks occasionally prey on jellyfish. Besides, jellyfish have many natural enemies..."

"I know! And humans! Humans also like to eat jellyfish!"

The tourists burst into laughter at the child's childish words, only the commentator nodded seriously: "Yes, that's true."

The moment Jiang Haiyan saw the narrator's face clearly, the corners of Jiang Haiyan's mouth twitched. What happened today?How did he meet acquaintances one after another?

The narrator was Mu Shuiteng, who had met Jiang Haiyan a few times, that lighthouse jellyfish that never gets old or dies but is a bit dull.

At this moment, the lighthouse jellyfish also noticed Jiang Haiyan's existence. He was stunned for a long time before he realized: "...is it you?"

Jiang Haiyan smiled wryly: "That's right, it's me." It's been a long time since I saw this lighthouse jellyfish still looks dumbfounded.

"Sorry, can you wait for me? I'm leaving get off work in five minutes."

Jiang Haiyan blinked: "Yes."

Five minutes later, a young girl wearing the overalls of the Oceanographic Museum came to change shifts with Mu Shuiteng.

Jiang Haiyan and Mu Shuiteng chatted as they walked out.

"Why are you here?" Jiang Haiyan asked Mu Shuiteng curiously.

Mu Shuiteng smiled: "I work here."

"I can see... are you here as a commentator?"

Mu Shuiteng nodded: "After returning from country R, ​​I couldn't find another job for a while, so I could only go back to my old job. It happened that this oceanographic museum was recruiting people, so I came for an interview."

Jiang Haiyan smiled: "It seems that you did a good job."

Mu Shuiteng smiled blankly.

"... Mizuto, is this your friend?"

A voice suddenly sounded.

Jiang Haiyan turned his head to look, and there was another man wearing the overalls of the Oceanographic Museum, who looked quite young and handsome.

Mu Shuiteng nodded: "He is my friend."

Jiang Haiyan blinked: "This is..."

"He's also my friend," Mu Shuiteng laughed blankly, "Shall we go have lunch together?"

The young man paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Since he's Mizuto's friend, he's also my friend. I just got off work, so let's go together."

Jiang Haiyan shook his head: "No, I just ate."

"You can eat some more after eating." The young man smiled, "We ordered a new seafood restaurant nearby, and I heard that the taste is very good."

Jiang Haiyan smiled and refused: "I just ate a barbecue buffet, and I'm already full."

Mu Shuiteng immediately expressed regret: "What a pity..."

"Next time." The young man followed suit.

"Let's eat together next time." Jiang Haiyan blinked.

After leaving the Maritime Museum, Jiang Haiyan wandered aimlessly for a while, until it was dark, and he slowly returned downstairs to his house.

Thousands of lights are on, but his home is completely dark.

He stood downstairs silently for a while before he took out his key and went upstairs.

When I got home, the house was still empty.

Jiang Haiyan turned on the light and stared at the empty living room for a while.

Recalling today's experience, he felt a little unbelievable and a little melancholy.

Zheng Youqian, who used to always have a serious face, finally learned to laugh.

The lighthouse jellyfish, who was always wronged because he couldn't find friends, finally found a friend.

Only he is still alone.

Jiang Haiyan is very depressed, Jiang Haiyan is very melancholy, Jiang Haiyan really wants to take revenge on the society.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a rustling noise coming from the balcony. He walked over silently and saw that it was two wild cats fighting wildly on the balcony of his house.

Jiang Haiyan: "..."

Jiang Haiyan suddenly became more depressed, more melancholy and wanted to take revenge on the society.

These days, even two little wild cats can abuse him!
