Drinking Morning Tea

Eight o'clock in the morning on November 1. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival coincides with the National Day holiday, so we can have eight consecutive days off.

In a Cantonese-style teahouse, Lu You and Li Yu were sitting on a seat for four in the corner drinking morning tea.

There was a lot of noise and crowds around, and there was a long queue waiting for a vacant seat at the door. Fortunately, Lu You has connections in his family and can reserve a seat, otherwise he would still be queuing outside now.

There are several cages of dishes on the table for two people, including classic steamed shrimp dumplings, tiger skin chicken feet, golden belly, black bean sauce pork ribs, walnut bread, etc.

Li Yu took a sip of Tingzi porridge, which was delicious and soft, and exclaimed: "It's really good. Guangzhou people still know how to eat it!"

"It's okay." Lu You picked up a piece of shrimp dumpling and put it into his mouth. The crispy shrimp meat and the sweet juice exploded in his mouth. "These shrimp dumplings are really good. I'll try them when I get home."

Afraid that he would not call her after making it, Li Yu quickly added, "Remember to call me so I can try it."

"You can't do it yourself?" Lu You's tone was full of disgust.

"It's enough if you know how to do it, do you still need me to know how to do it?" Li Yu replied confidently, "It's best if you learn how to do this table, then I will be lucky."

Lu You didn't want to argue with him anymore. He didn't even want to face him, so what else could he say?

Li Yu glanced at the tables around him. Most of them were young and old, talking and laughing, but the two young ones seemed a little awkward.

"Why are you free to ask me out for morning tea today? Shouldn't it be with your parents?"

"They took my little sister back to their hometown after get off work last night. The old man misses my little sister every day and cannot go back."

Li Yu became even more confused and asked, "Shouldn't you also go back with me?"

"Haha." Lu You laughed self-deprecatingly, "They said, 'Why do you have the nerve to get into Chunhua with such lousy grades? If you don't do well in the exam, don't come back.' And now there is no big exam, and the results I don't know what happened, so I won't go back."

"It's so pitiful. I'm afraid you won't be able to go back in this life."

Lu You gave him a speechless look. It was the country's birthday today, so he would let him go and let him go. He would wait until the midterm exam to show him what a big daddy was. Then he picked up the phone, looked at the menu, and asked him: "Do you want anything else to eat?"

"Let's eat these first and then talk about it. If you can't finish it, it will be wasted."

Lu You said his plan, "It won't be wasted. I'm also thinking of packing it back for lunch. Then I'll go home and cook a meal, heat it up, and it'll be a meal."

Li Yu thought for a while and realized that for the same reason, he still had to solve the problem by himself at noon, so he said, "Okay, you can do whatever you want. I'm not picky about food. Let's have lunch together."

Lu You nodded, indicating that he understood, and placed an order for a few dishes that he had never tried before, such as bird's nest yogurt tarts, foie gras rice rolls and the like.

······

In the same teahouse.

A middle-aged man in a suit and headphones led seven people from Tang Wan and Xu Nian's family to sit down at a large, clean table.

"You can just sit here. This family just happened to finish eating and left." The middle-aged man said with a smile.

"Old classmate, I'm sorry to trouble you, but I need you to lead the way during such a busy time." Tang's father said apologetically.

"It's okay." The middle-aged man shook his head, indicating that the other party didn't care, and said with a smile: "This is my responsibility. Besides, it doesn't make sense for you to say that we are old classmates and not lead the way. Please sit down first and scan the QR code on your mobile phone to order. That's fine, I'll get busy first."

"Okay, go and do your work."

The middle-aged man left after speaking.

Logan picked up the hot water bottle and poured hot water over the dishes and chopsticks in front of him.

Dad Tang was swiping his phone, and he was a little dazzled by the various dishes. He could only ask his daughter: "Wanwan, what do you want to eat?"

Tang Wan poured out the hot water in the bowl. After hearing his father's question, he thought about it, stretched out his hand and said, "Let me and Nian Nian take a look first."

After Tang's father handed over the phone, he chatted with Xu's father on the side.

Father Xu took a sip of tea and asked, "Where's Ah Jing? Isn't he coming back?"

"He said the round-trip air ticket was expensive, and he had only been to school for a month, so there was no need to come back."

The two middle-aged men then talked about some work matters. The two women also chatted about their parents' quarrels, while the young man put his three heads together and discussed what to eat.

Logan: "Niannian, Xiaoyu, have you thought of anything?"

Xiaoyu is Xu Nian's younger sister. She will be in the first grade of junior high school in September this year. Her full name is Xu Siyu.

Xu Nian: "Please have two portions of the signature dishes such as Shaomai, Shrimp Dumplings, and Money Belly. I can eat them all. What about you, Xiaoyu?"

Xu Siyu: "I want to try this red rice sausage and seafood porridge."

Tang Wan quickly ordered a few dishes, two portions of each. At this time, there were hundreds of dishes. He looked a little frightened and returned the phone to Dad Tang.

"Dad, let's order these first."

Father Tang took the phone and took a look. He didn't order many dishes. His daughter was probably frightened by the price and didn't dare to order. Then I ordered a few more breads, rice rolls, and the children's favorite dishes, and then clicked to place an order.

…

Lu You and Li Yu had eaten so much that the steamer basket and plates on the table were basically clean.

Lu You glanced at Li Yu, who was still drinking porridge, and said, "It's a waste. It all goes into your stomach."

After Li Yu took the last sip, he burped, touched his belly, and said with satisfaction: "Ah~ It feels good. I didn't expect that I could finish it all. I was a little full and didn't even want to eat lunch." ."

"What do you say later? Do you want to go home directly?" Lu You picked up the phone and prepared to read today's news.

"Let's talk about it. I just want to digest it now." After speaking, Li Yu leaned back on the chair and looked at the surrounding customers, scanning aimlessly.

"Huh?" Suddenly, Li Yu found two figures that seemed familiar, but he was not sure, so he shook Lu You's arm, pointed his finger over there, and asked: "Lu You, look, is that Xu over there?" Is there still Logan in the year?"

When he heard the word Tang Wan, Lu You put down his phone and looked in the direction he pointed, just in time to see Tang Wan nibbling on the chicken feet.

"It seems... yes." Seeing her eating quietly, Lu You felt warm in his heart.

Li Yu looked at Xu Nian and saw her stuffing a bun into her mouth, her cheeks bulging, and she almost couldn't help laughing.

"Do you want to say hello?" Li Yu turned around and asked Lu You.

"No need. Just say it on vx. It will probably be embarrassing if they have a family dinner."

Then Lu You picked up her phone, took a photo of Tang Wan holding out her chopsticks to pick up food, and sent it. Li Yu also followed suit, but he deliberately waited until Xu Nian's mouth was full again before pressing the shutter.

Lu You raised his eyebrows with a somewhat surprised expression: "When did you add Xu Nian?"

Li Yu lowered her hair and said casually: "I asked on the day I changed my position."

"It's pretty quick to start." Lu You joked.

"Not as fast as you, you are a month ahead of me." Li Yu was not to be outdone.

After saying that, the two sneered at each other, then looked down at their phones.

On the other side, the vx ringtones of the two people's mobile phones rang one after another. The two looked at each other and thought it was some announcement from the squad. So they all put down their chopsticks and took out their phones to check.

Ly: Is Cantonese style breakfast delicious?

…

Eat my turtle: picture.jpg

Eat my turtle: This is a pig!

…

Logan's hand on the phone tightened, with surprise in his eyes. He raised his head and looked around, looking for the person opposite vx in the sea of ​​people.

Xu Nian was the same, but there was no surprise in his eyes, but murderous intent.

"What are you two doing?" Tang Ma frowned and looked at the two of them with a somewhat unhappy tone, "Just eat well and don't look at your phone."

"Got it." The two responded in unison, quickly replying on vx, then put their phones aside and continued eating.

Wan: Are you there too? Where to sit?

…

Youyu: If you don't delete it, you will be doomed!

…

Lu You and Li Yu both saw the scene of them being scolded and guessed that they would not receive a reply in a short time.

Ly: You eat slowly, I'm leaving after I finish.

Ly: I won't say hello to your family when they are here.

Ly: Let's have dinner together next time.

…

Eat my turtle: Come and smash my phone if you have the guts.

…

After the two people replied to the message, the middle-aged man who had just led the group to Logan came over with two gift boxes in each hand and placed them on their table.

"You two young masters, how did you enjoy your meal? Is it to your liking?"

Li Yu was never good at such scenes, and his whole body was tense. Seeing him like this, Lu You could only stand up to him.

"Breakfast is delicious. If I have a chance next time, I will bring my parents over. As for the young master, there is no need. Just call us by our names." Lu You politely gave an official reply.

The middle-aged man smiled. Who knows what the descendants of these rich people are thinking. They still have to do the right thing to avoid losing their jobs.

"Okay, Mr. Lu."

The corner of Lu You's mouth twitched, and he was too lazy to say, just love it.

Pointing to the gift boxes on the table, he asked, "What are these? Are they for our parents?"

"Well, a box of moon cakes and a box of hairy crabs."

Lu You thought about whether he could accept it. Reciprocity is a courtesy, and receiving gifts is not something you can just take, especially if your parents have had relationships with you.

The middle-aged man saw his concerns and spoke again: "Mr. Lu and Mr. Li are investors in our teahouse. This is our Mid-Autumn Festival gift to him."

"Then I'll thank you on behalf of my father." Lu You didn't hesitate when he heard this and chose to accept it.

"Then I'll take my leave first, and you'll use your time." The middle-aged man had completed his mission, no longer lingering, and turned around to leave.

Li Yu immediately relaxed and complained: "Really, I can't adapt to this kind of situation. I am just a student. If there is anything, I just have to tell my dad no, and I have to go."

Lu You disagreed with Li Yu's idea and told him: "No. We are the descendants of our parents. While enjoying the high-quality life they gave us, we naturally have to bear the troubles that come with it."

"Oh, but what I said is really useless to my dad." Li Yu sighed politely, his words were a bit frustrating.

Lu You ignored him and left him alone for a while. He was used to emo for a few days every month.

At this time, Lu You's cell phone rang, it was Tang Wan's vx reply.

Wan: OK. time and location.

Lu You fell silent after seeing the message. I can only turn my brain quickly, think of solutions, and then my eyes stay on the hairy crab gift box. An idea slowly formed in my mind.

"Li Yu, is your Carp Club's staff kitchen in use?"

"Yes." Li Yu's mood returned to normal at this time and asked: "What do you want to do?"

"That's enough, we'll talk about what to do later." After speaking, Lu You lowered his head.

Ly: Are you free on the 3rd?

After the message was sent, Lu You raised his head and looked towards Tang Wan. She had stopped using her chopsticks and was writing a reply on her cell phone.

Wan: Yes, I have time all day long.

Come to my house that night?

Lu You hurriedly threw this shameless thought out of his mind, saving himself from saying what he shouldn't say.

Ly: Can I eat crab? Not allergic, right?

Wan: Do you want to treat me to crab?

Ly: I received a few hairy crabs at home. My parents have returned to their hometown. I can't finish them all by myself. I need your help.

Wan: You cook it for me to eat?

Ly: Well, I just make my own ingredients.

Logan was already looking forward to it, and the corners of his mouth couldn't stop rising.

Wan: Can I go there early? I want to see how you do it.

Ly: Okay, then arrive at 9 o'clock. The location is Liyushe. You can find it by searching on the map.

Ly: By the way, don't tell Xu Nian later, Li Yu will invite her.

Wan:!

Wan: Describe their relationship in detail

After sending the message, Tang Wan looked at Xu Nian, who was still eating, with strange eyes.

Xu Nian suddenly felt hairy all over his body and asked warily: "Wanwan, what do you want to do?"

Logan shook his head, showed a standard smile, and responded: "It's okay. It's nothing. You continue to eat."

Ly: I don't know, and I won't ask. Let them develop on their own.

Wan: Okay. Do you need me to bring anything with me?

Ly: Be sure to bring your expectations and good mood.

There are countless fireworks blooming in Tang Wan's heart at this moment.

Ly: I'm going home first. I can't reply to you while I'm riding.

Wan: Ride slowly and pay attention to safety.

After receiving the reply, Lu You put away the phone, picked up the gift box on the table, and said to Li Yu, "Let's go. There are still people queuing outside the door."

"Here we come." Li Yu also picked up his own share and followed in his footsteps.

…

Tang's mother looked at her daughter, holding her mobile phone and looking silly and happy, and couldn't help but ask: "What are you looking at, smiling so brightly?"

Tang Wan quickly put away her phone, the smile on her face quickly changed to a normal look, and she said nonchalantly: "It's nothing, I just saw a joke."

"What kind of joke are you telling me?"

"It's nothing funny now that I think about it." Logan picked up the chopsticks again, "Okay, eat quickly, there are still vegetables, don't waste them."

Xu Nian looked at Tang Wan with disgust and was too embarrassed to expose her. Who else but Lu You could make her smile so happily.

Tang Ma felt that there must be something weird in it, but she couldn't ask clearly in public, so she had to give up.

Logan had a very enjoyable morning tea.
