Geng Hao and others packed up their things and went to eat at a food stall with Chen Shi, which was a common occurrence for the crew.

Chen Shi invited all the shopping mall staff and property managers who could spare their time to eat, and those who couldn't spare their time had to be packed and sent over.

The food stall that Chen Shi made a reservation for is called Chang Kaixin Food Stall. The owner's surname is Chang, and everyone calls him Lao Chang. He smiles and laughs with others every day.

Chang Kaixin Food Stall is open from 11 o'clock every night until 3 or 4 o'clock in the morning. It is right on the side of the road. I first rode a tricycle and pulled tables, chairs and benches. I made some money over the years and bought a truck. In the past, there were only three or four tables, but now there are

Eleven and twelve are outstanding.

Stir-fried vegetables, barbecued lobsters, etc. are all available here, and the food stalls are all set up together. Where there are food stalls, there will be carts selling steamed buns, noodles, etc., as well as rolled pancakes, fried rice, etc.

Chen Shi made a reservation in advance. Lao Chang received a call and heard that Chen Shi wanted to reserve fifteen tables. Lao Chang was a little confused at the time, but Chen Shi has been eating here for many years. He ate here when he was in high school and then graduated from college.

We came back again, but before they used to eat with three to five or even seven or eight people. Later, Chen Shi often came by himself to have something to eat and drink.

How should I put it? This guy always orders a plate of shredded potatoes with two or three barbecue skewers, and then a draft beer, just drinks it, pays and leaves after drinking, and he comes here once or twice a week.

Lao Chang would often give Chen Shi two more skewers of mutton skewers, and Chen Shi would always pay for the extra two skewers. As time went by, Lao Chang stopped giving them, but would add more shredded potatoes, and would give Chen Shi the larger mutton skewers.

I don't think I've ever seen Chen Shi drunk in my memory, but there is one thing I always remember deeply, that is, one summer, Chen Shi came here to have dinner at around eleven o'clock in the evening.

As for the food stalls, most people of all stripes come out. After all, very few people come out to eat and drink at 11:00 or 12:00. Most of them are people who work or go to nightclubs. Ordinary people may go out for supper at 11:00:00 or 12:00 once or twice a month.

However, things have changed in the past few years. There are now a lot of people coming out for late-night snacks. Speaking of which, in the summer of that year, Chen Shi came here to eat alone, and then the whole table got drunk and caused trouble.

They had to force Lao Chang's daughter to sing and dance for them, otherwise they wouldn't pay the bill. Lao Chang's daughter was only in high school at the time, and during the summer vacation she often came over at night to help clear the table.

For the first time, Lao Chang lost the smile on his face. He walked over and wanted to chase them away without giving up the money, but this group of people didn't buy it at all and insisted on letting Lao Chang's daughter perform singing and dancing.

I know this group of people from time to time, but I don’t know what they do. Anyway, they always like to hang out at night, and they all come in groups. None of them seem to be kind-hearted. If you eat for 380 yuan every time, I will give you 300 yuan.

If you want to pay me back next time, I will either give you credit directly, or if you don’t give me credit, I will look at you angrily.

He speaks without any taboos, speaks loudly, and often likes to whistle. He likes to chat up young girls, but there are not many girls who come to eat at food stalls who are good at it.

This table once got into a fight with a group of people because they were teasing a few girls. The girl called a man from a van and started having sex with them without saying a word.

The result was miserable for Lao Chang. Not only were the tables, chairs and benches broken, but they also had to be cleaned until after six o'clock in the morning. If you don't clean this place, the surrounding residents and merchants will complain the next day. Don't do it in the future.

I want to do it here.

When this group of people teased Lao Chang's daughter, Lao Chang pushed his daughter behind him, and was slapped in the face by a bald man, who scolded Lao Chang for not giving them face.

At this moment, Chen Shi suddenly came over with a draft beer, poured it on the faces of the group of people, cursed them as idiots, and ran away. As a result, the group of people had no intention of teasing Lao Chang's daughter, so they all got up and chased Chen

Really.

Fortunately, Chen Shi was in good health and the group of people didn't catch up. Most importantly, the group of people were so drunk that they didn't even see Chen Shi clearly. They came back the next day and asked Lao Chang if he knew Chen Shi, and Lao Chang said

I didn’t know him at all, and the next day Lao Chang also found a sir to come over to calm things down.

Having been working as a food stall for so many years, Lao Chang doesn't know anyone, and he also knows one or two people who are relatively good to him. For example, many policemen come back for some food in the evening.

This incident left a deep impression on Lao Chang, because none of the many acquaintances and guests came out, except Chen Shi, who came to eat a month after the incident.

In fact, Chen Shi was also afraid at that time. He was not afraid of these gangsters. To be honest, Chen Shi was not afraid of gangsters. He was afraid that he would become enemies with these people and that the people around him or his family would be harassed and tortured. After all, Chen Shi

I was also a ruthless person in high school.

Lao Chang didn't know who Chen Shi was, but Chen Shi was obviously taking care of his own business. He booked fifteen tables. The tables were all folding plastic round tables. A maximum of six or seven people could sit at one table. These fifteen tables

That means setting aside drinks and food for 100 people.

Lao Chang now has some savings and hired a few clerks. His wife is responsible for accounting. There have been fewer gangsters in the past two years. I have to say that the stricter the law, the better and safer it will be for ordinary people.

Lao Chang now runs a food stall in a large square, paying rent of 10,000 yuan a month, but he can put a lot of tables. Now, in addition to the fifteen tables booked by Chen Shi, Lao Chang has added another fifteen tables for him.

other guests.

The main person paid the money, and the warehouse next to the square was given to him, which can store a lot of things. He no longer has to move things around, and he no longer has to worry about others chasing him away and not setting up a stall.

There are no residential areas around the square, and we are not afraid of disturbing the residents. This is a late-night canteen for many people. I still don’t understand why we are not afraid of food stalls and barbecue stalls in the late-night canteens we filmed? We have to copy all the plots from the R version.

The most embarrassing thing is that there are still many such izakayas nowadays. Many of the owners dress like late-night restaurants. Each of them is a former big brother, and each one has many stories.

But the main reason is that in order to rectify the city's image, there are basically very few food stalls. Slowly it may become a memory, and it is very likely that it will disappear in the future. Roadside food stalls are indeed rare.

Chen Shi is riding a battery car carrying Shen Xue. Now the company's artists are spreading the rumor that Mr. Chen's battery car only carries immortals. There are still people in the company placing bets on who will be the next person to be driven by Mr. Chen. The one with the highest winning rate now is Pang Dahai.

······

Not to mention anything else, Pang Panghai can come here to have a late night snack, not for anything else, just to pack more Dian Dian back to give his wife and children a sumptuous meal tomorrow. Pang Panghai’s wife is not asleep yet, so she is waiting for Pang Pang Haiwei.

It's time to go back and have a meal.

"Brother Dahai, what do you want to do?" Chen Shi asked curiously, Peng Dahai, who was looking at the dishes on the display cabinet.

"I'm thinking about what to order back. My son likes to eat it, and my wife likes to eat it, but the question is, will my son mature prematurely if he eats too many oysters? I recently discovered that this kid always likes to stare at the female anchor. What if?

He has lost a long time ago. If he has a baby soon, should I buy him a house in advance? If I eat too many oysters, my wife will be very happy tonight, but I will lose my vitality again."

"Then you won't order anything else?" Chen Shi asked.

"No, my wife has repeatedly told me to order some supplements. If she doesn't see me coming home and eating in front of her, she will eat me."

Chen Shi~ "Brother Dahai, if you are still alive when my sister-in-law turns fifty, I will make a documentary for you called The Hollowed Out Middle Ages."

"Hey~ When you have a child, you will know that love is not the only fun in this world." Pang Panghai continued to look for ingredients.

Shen Xue mingled with a group of people. Ji Ziling looked at Shen Xue and asked, "Who are you?" Ji Ziling pointed at Chen Shi and asked.

A group of people raised their ears and waited for Shen Xue's answer. Shen Xue glanced at it, and Chen Shi and her looked at each other. Their eyes said that they were both gangsters, so they should keep a secret today so that they can meet each other in the future.

"Me and him? What's the relationship? How should I put it? We are together at all times except during the day."

Everyone present!!! This is the first time that cohabitation is described in such a fresh and refined way. To put it bluntly, we just stay together at night.

Chen Shi stood behind Shen Xue with a confused look on his face, and said with a smile: "She is right, because we are roommates and we share a house."

"Yes, we are roommates, so we rub each other's backs occasionally," Shen Xue said.

Chen Shi~ Oh my god~ I don’t want to explain anymore. I might even drive when I’m explaining. This guy obviously wants to tell everyone that she and she have the kind of relationship that everyone understands. This girl is actually so damaging. She is

Did you do it on purpose? Otherwise, would all your peach blossoms be cut off?

When he walked to Lao Chang, he saw Lao Chang looking at his mobile phone. Chen Shi walked over and asked curiously: "What is Lao Chang looking at?"

When Lao Chang saw Chen Shi coming, he quickly put down his cell phone, took out a cigarette and handed it to Chen Shi, saying, "I'm going to put the ingredients on the lobster and barbecue. Let's take a break while I'm busy. I also saw you chatting with other people."

I didn't bother you.

When I had nothing to do, I checked my daughter’s WeChat Moments for a while. She often contacted us in the first year of college, but she has been less in touch with us since her sophomore year. I miss her very much. I’m not afraid of anything else. I’m just afraid that she will meet a bad guy.

What should I do if I get pregnant?"

"You are worrying too much. Children nowadays know more than you. They will take safety measures."

"It's okay if you don't say it. But if you say it, why do I feel that my daughter has already~ well~ forget it, children have their own way, but I don't feel comfortable.

Several of your high school classmates have come less frequently. Last time, that Li Xiaoxiao came and drank a lot, and that Xu Tao came here often, bringing a new girlfriend with him every time. Except for that Zhao Niuniu, he was still like a child.

, and every time I come to eat with a group of children.”

"Yes, Niu Niu hasn't changed. Maybe she doesn't want to change. Isn't this good? Your business here is good now. Are there any troubles now?" Chen Shi said after taking a puff of cigarette. He rarely smoked, so basically

I don’t smoke, but I do smoke occasionally, and it’s always given to me by others, but Chen Shizhi accepts smoke from people he can trust.

"There are less troublemakers now. Big brothers are broadcasting live every day and shouting thank you, Lao Tie, thank you Lao Tie. In the past, people from the nightclubs came to have supper, but now many of them are anchors, eating alone and talking to each other.

Talking on a mobile phone would have been regarded as a monster a few years ago, and no one would reply if someone spoke to a mobile phone. Times have changed now.

I stopped working after two or three years. I am just a daughter. I worked in this business from the age of 18 to 42. I have been working in this business for more than 20 years. To tell you the truth, I have never been in this business.

city.

My daughter went to college, but I didn’t even go with her. I thought that if she went, I would lose my income. A few days ago, there were 365 days in a year. I only took a few days off during the Chinese New Year. It was cloudy and rainy.

I also run a stall. Anyway, I can make some money by running a stall, but I have nothing at home.

I rested at home for a few days during the Chinese New Year and didn’t want to do anything. Now, my wife and I are both in poor health. When we were young, we worked hard to make money, and now we have to use money to support our lives when we are old. How old am I? Forty-two years old, but I and I

My wife has arthritis and cervical spondylosis, and recently discovered a herniated lumbar disc. Anyway, it’s like a taxi that runs every day, and will basically be scrapped after five or six years of running.

Do you still remember the old Liu who sold wontons next door to me? Two years ago, he was deceived by his cousin into a pyramid scheme, and then all the money was defrauded. In anger, Old Liu and his cousin died together, as well as the sesame seed seller.

Aunt Wang worked hard to make money to buy a house for her son, but when her son got married, her daughter-in-law kicked her out of the new house. Ma Legobi, his son was also a coward and didn't say anything.

Aunt Wang rented a house by herself and continued to make money. Then she kept complaining about a headache a few days ago. She went to the hospital to find out that she had some kind of tumor. She has never been willing to buy medical insurance for herself after making money all her life. Her son also didn’t give her money to see a doctor. I gave her

I offered her five thousand and she didn't want it, saying it wouldn't be a problem.

As a result, she left by herself. I recently found out that she went to her hometown, and she found a group of funeral organizers to give people money, saying that they would help her bury her when she died, but she died within a few days.

You tell me, these are old neighbors who have known each other for decades. We have been together longer than with my family. I didn’t expect that this would happen when I get old. I just want to take it with me while I can still leave.

My wife went outside to take a look. I don’t want to wait until the day I die without even playing or seeing the outside world.

After staying in one place for a long time, I feel that we are all stupid. You see what happens to Lao Liu once he goes out. Hey~ we live a little bit of life every day. When we get up, we go out to the stall, and then we close the stall and go home to sleep. I

If it weren't for my health, I wouldn't even be able to hire someone. I have no choice, what a shame. Fortunately, my daughter is in college. If I were twenty years younger, I would definitely not do this, and I would definitely go out and gain experience."

Chen Shi didn't say anything, just smoked a cigarette and listened to Lao Chang's chatter. He probably hadn't talked to anyone about his innermost thoughts for a long time.

To put it bluntly, things change and people change, time will not give you so many opportunities to wait, but no one in this world wants to stay in one place, but the pressure of life does not allow them to move casually. In fact, many people have no expectations for the future.
