Shi Jiahui's son is studying abroad and he was supposed to go back this week, but he learned from his mother that the chef of the restaurant where his grandfather used to be an apprentice is coming.
And he brought along the two cute little girls that his mother had always talked about at home.
So Shi Jiahui's son "Shi Tao" specifically postponed his return for a week.
In fact, Shi Jiahui only learned about her son's decision after he had made the decision and completed the flight ticket change.
Therefore, Shi Jiahui originally thought that since her son had just returned to school and she was the only one at home, she could let Feng Yifan and Yang Zhiyi take their daughter and live directly in her home. Now it seems impossible.
Shi Tao asked anxiously at the exit: "Mom, didn't you get the time wrong? Why haven't they come out yet? Did they miss the train?"
Shi Jiahui looked at her son and couldn't help but smile and said, "Why do you think you are more anxious than your mother?"
Shi Tao continued, "Yes, I am very anxious. I want to see what the chef of the restaurant where my grandfather was an apprentice looked like."
Shi Jiahui said: "Haven't you seen it?"
Shi Tao shook his head and said, "That doesn't count. Photos and videos are different from the real person."
Shi Jiahui looked at his son and asked, "Tell me the truth, kid. Why did you insist on meeting your uncle Yifan this time? Did your father tell you something?"
Shi Tao looked at his mother and asked in surprise, "Mom, are you too sensitive? I stayed here specifically to meet the chef of the restaurant where my grandfather was an apprentice. How did it get involved with my dad? Don't worry, mom, my dad definitely doesn't have any thoughts."
Shi Jiahui said seriously, "That's hard to say. Your father has been abroad for these years. I'm afraid he has done many things behind my back that he would not dare to do in China, right?"
Shi Tao immediately said, "Mom, I really don't have that. My dad has been working very hard these years. On the one hand, he works to earn money, and on the other hand, he takes good care of me, your son."
Shi Jiahui asked again: "What about your sister?"
Shi Tao said helplessly: "My sister? Actually, she really wants to come back, but my dad won't let her. Besides, she will soon be going to high school, so she really doesn't have time to come back."
If ordinary people get to know Shi Jiahui's family carefully, they may find that this family is particularly different.
First, the last names of the two children.
In Shi Jiahui's home, she and her husband had discussed before they got married that if they had a son in the future, he would take Shi Jiahui's surname, and if they had a daughter, she would take her father's surname.
So the son was named "Shi Tao".
Shi Jiahui's husband is not a cook, but an engineer.
He is now abroad, supervising projects for a domestic engineering company and taking care of his children who are studying abroad.
Shi Tao has already gone to college and will graduate in a year.
Shi Jiahui's daughter is named "Tian Lang". Like her father, she is very interested in the size of construction machinery, so her father arranged for her to study abroad.
This arrangement was also because Shi Jiahui was obsessed with cooking and did not have much time to take care of the children.
Of course, the two children also understand their mother very well. When they come back during holidays, or when Shi Jiahui goes there and cooks for the family for a while, it makes the whole family very happy.
This time, Shi Tao stayed behind specifically because he wanted to meet Feng Yifan, and he also discussed it secretly with his father and sister.
In addition, Tian Lang specifically asked her brother to remember to take a few group photos and bring them back for her to see.
After waiting for a while, Feng Yifan and Yang Zhiyi finally brought the children out.
Feng Yifan is tall and strong, and he is very conspicuous when walking in the exit passage.
Even Shi Tao could recognize the other person at a glance without his mother introducing him.
"Mom, here he comes, here he comes, is that Uncle Yifan?"
Shi Jiahui took a look and said, "Yes, that's him. Oh, there are two little babies too. It's really great that they are all here."
Shi Jiahui ran to the exit, waved and shouted, "Ruoruo, Xixi, come quickly."
Feng Ruoruo and Yang Xiaoxi were originally holding hands, and then Feng Ruoruo held her father's hand because her father had to hold the suitcase with his other hand.
As for Yang Xiaoxi's father, he had to pull two suitcases.
Hearing Shi Jiahui's call, Feng Ruoruo immediately let go of her father's hand and ran forward with Yang Xiaoxi.
"Aunt Jiahui, Aunt, Xixi and I are here."
"Hello, Auntie, we are here."
When they ran to the exit, the two little girls had no tickets and could only greet Shi Jiahui inside.
Feng Yifan also hurried over, swiped his ticket and let the two girls go out first, and then he waited for Yang Zhiyi to come over.
Shi Jiahui squatted down and hugged the two little girls.
At this moment, Shi Jiahui was really happy.
Shi Tao came behind his mother and saw her hugging the two little girls. He felt a little envious of the two sisters.
You know, when Shi Tao and his sister were young, they never received such treatment from their mother.
Because in my childhood memories, Shi Jiahui was always very busy. And their father was also very busy at that time and often went abroad, so the brother and sister often had to take care of themselves at home.
Only occasionally do my grandparents come over, but since my grandpa is also quite busy, he doesn’t actually come that often.
Later, my grandmother passed away, and my grandfather spent less time taking care of the two children.
Later, his father took on a long-term engineering project abroad, and Shi Tao happened to be admitted to a foreign university at that time. Then his father simply took the brother and sister abroad together to take care of them more conveniently.
The family was separated, but the mother would visit them during the summer vacation.
Then in winter, Dad would bring my brother and sister back home.
Shi Tao and Tian Lang, brother and sister, both know very well that although their parents have been separated for a long time, their parents have a very good relationship and are truly the most exemplary couple in their eyes.
Shi Jiahui was very close to the two little girls and asked them how their journey was.
Yang Zhiyi, dragging two large suitcases, finally arrived at the exit. Feng Yifan swiped his ticket and they came out together.
When Shi Jiahui saw the two people coming out, he quickly said to his son, "Shi Tao, please help quickly."
Feng Yifan smiled and said, "It's okay, the two of us can do it. Big sister, please help take care of Ruoruo and Xixi. Old Yang and I will take care of the things. Don't let me, the big nephew, do anything."
Shi Tao was still very proactive: "Uncle Yifan, it's okay. I can help with these."
As he spoke, Shi Tao had already taken the box from Feng Yifan.
This made Yang Zhiyi speechless, and he couldn't help thinking: Can't you take a look? Who needs help the most
Of course, Feng Yifan reached out and took a box from Yang Zhiyi.
It also helped to share Yang Zhiyi's hard work and avoided some embarrassment.
Shi Jiahui was too lazy to pay attention. She walked with the two little girls and listened to them talk about what they saw and heard on the high-speed rail trip.
Feng Yifan pulled the box and started chatting with Shi Tao.
"I heard from Senior Sister that your brother-in-law is overseas with you and your sister?"
Shi Tao was neither humble nor arrogant when facing Feng Yifan: "Yes, I am studying abroad now. My sister was also taken abroad by my father and will go to high school soon."
Feng Yifan smiled and nodded: "It's fine, but your father is very hard-working. It's really your whole family who supports Senior Sister. I am embarrassed to let Senior Sister go to Su Ji to be my sous chef."
Shi Tao said quickly, "Uncle Yifan, please don't. That's my mom's dream. My dad, my sister and I all support it. We were thinking that during the winter vacation, our whole family would come back together and go to your restaurant to eat and taste your and my mom's cooking."
Feng Yifan said: "Sure, if you have time when the store opens, you can come back."
Shi Tao said: "We can't go to the opening ceremony because my dad still has work to do and my sister and I have to go to school."
Feng Yifan responded: "Oh, then study is more important."
Yang Zhiyi lightened his burden and followed the two people. When he heard them chatting, he couldn't help but come forward and say a few words.
When asked about Shi Tao's name, Yang Zhiyi couldn't help but feel a little strange: "You have your mother's last name?"
Shi Tao smiled and explained: "Yes, I have my mother's last name, and my sister has my father's last name."
Yang Zhiyi was a little surprised: "Huh? This is quite interesting in your house."
Shi Tao continued, "Maybe many people who know this will first think, are my parents divorced? So my sister and I followed our parents? And then we changed our surnames to follow our parents? But in fact, my parents have always had a good relationship, and they support each other's careers."
Feng Yifan smiled and said, "We know. I heard it from your grandfather."
Shi Tao was a little surprised: "Uncle Yifan, did my grandpa tell you about this?"
Feng Yifan nodded: "Yes, my uncle told me that. I really admire my brother-in-law for agreeing to let you take my eldest sister's last name. This is difficult to do in many families in China. As a man, I don't think I can do it myself."
Yang Zhiyi couldn't help but make a joke: "It's okay, doesn't Ruoruo have your last name now? If Ruoruo's mother gives birth to a son in the future, you can let him have Ruoxi's last name."
Feng Yifan laughed immediately: "I really need to think about this matter. I may not be able to accept it."
Shi Tao said, "It's true that many men can't accept it. I myself may not be able to accept it, so this makes me admire my father even more."
Feng Yifan nodded: "Indeed, your father is worthy of admiration. He is a good husband and a good father."
The three people were walking and chatting at the back, while Shi Jiahui had already run to the car in the garage with the two girls.
Then they shouted to the back: "Hurry up."
After hearing this, Feng Yifan and the other two smiled at each other and quickly ran towards the car.
Shi Jiahui also specially rented a business car so that everyone could sit in the car, and after getting in the car, Shi Jiahui needed to drive.
While driving, Shi Jiahui told Feng Yifan about the situation of the two dim sum chefs.
In fact, Shi Jiahui had already told Feng Yifan the basic situation over the phone.
"Yifan, the dim sum restaurant they run in Shanghai is doing very well. It's definitely an internet celebrity restaurant, so if you invite them, you might face greater difficulties."
Feng Yifan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Just let it be. If they really don't want to go, we won't force them. We can just think of it as taking Ruoruo and Xixi out for fun."
Shi Jiahui said: "We can't say that. We still have to work hard to get it."
Feng Yifan nodded: "That's for sure. I will definitely try my best to fight for it. Since they want to compete with me, then I will show my true colors and compete with them."
Shi Tao asked curiously: "Uncle Yifan, can you also make snacks?"
Feng Ruoruo immediately answered for her father: "My father makes delicious snacks."
Yang Xiaoxi also said: "Yes, the dim sum made by Mr. Feng is especially delicious."
Shi Jiahui smiled and said to his son, "Shi Tao, haven't you and Dad eaten at those high-end Western restaurants abroad? You should know that Western restaurants usually have desserts at the end, right?"
Shi Tao responded, "Yes, I know. The desserts in the western restaurant are great. My sister likes them very much."
Shi Jiahui continued, "And your uncle Yifan used to be the head chef of a three-star restaurant. Do you think he can't make dim sum?"
Hearing this, Shi Tao was immediately surprised: "Wow, Uncle Yifan, you are the chef of a three-star restaurant?"
Feng Yifan smiled and responded: "That was all in the past. Now I am just a cook in a small restaurant like Su Ji."
Shi Tao asked curiously: "Aren't you the boss? And you're the chef."
Feng Ruoruo answered for her father again: "The boss is Ruoruo's grandfather, and Ruoruo's mother, and my father is the cook, the best cook."
Shi Tao found his sister's words very interesting, especially the little girl's expression when she spoke. Shi Tao felt like he was seeing his own sister when she was a child.
Shi Tao looked at his two sisters for a while and couldn't help saying to his mother, "Mom, I think these two sisters are very similar to Tian Lang when he was a child. They are both so cute, but Tian Lang is not as cute now as he was when he was a child."
Shi Jiahui laughed when she heard this, raised her hand and gently tapped her son who was sitting in the passenger seat.
"How can you talk about your sister like that? If Tian Lang knew about this, don't you think she would kill you when you go back?"
Shi Tao smiled and said, "Mom, if you don't tell me, my sister won't know. And even if she knows, I will go back to school. She won't go to our school to cause trouble for me."
Hearing Shi Tao's words, Feng Yifan and Yang Zhiyi behind him also started laughing.
Yang Zhiyi said with a smile: "Of course, how old are you, and you start bullying your sister? As a brother, you should protect your sister, don't you know?"
Shi Tao smiled and responded: "Of course I will protect my sister. Whenever my sister got into trouble at school, I was the one who stepped in."
Shi Jiahui immediately said, "My father and I have always said that if you get into trouble at school, you should tell the teacher."
Shi Tao said seriously: "Mom, you and my dad don't understand. Some things can't be solved by teachers. I, your brother, still need to step forward to solve them."
Shi Jiahui said to her son seriously, "But you have to remember that you can't just bully others. After all, your sister's classmates are younger than you."
Shi Tao agreed: "I know, mom."
Then Shi Tao turned around and looked at Feng Yifan and said, "Uncle Yifan, how did you develop such a good physique? Can you teach me if you have the chance?"
Feng Yifan smiled and responded: "I learned this from cooking. Do you want to learn how to cook from me?"
Shi Tao suddenly looked incredulous: "No way?"
Shi Jiahui chimed in, "Don't disbelieve me. Chinese cooking, whether it's knife skills or fire skills, all kinds of stir-frying, are very good exercises for the body."
Feng Yifan took over and said, "If you really want to learn, you can come to Su Ji to find me when you are on vacation."
Although Shi Tao was still a little skeptical, he had already decided to take a break to go to Su Ji and take a good look.
