"What? You want to stay in Yanjing for a few days? Xiaojing, you've only been back for a few days, why are you thinking about running around again? Can't you just stay at home for a few days?" At the dinner table, when the mother heard that Yang Jing wanted to go to Yanjing for a while, she immediately became unhappy.
"Mom, don't worry, let me explain it to you, okay?"
Mother Yang still looked unhappy. Her son had been abroad for two years and had just returned home for a few days before he was about to leave again. As a mother, she certainly didn't want this to happen.
"Mom, that fat guy Guo Xiaoxiang will arrive in Yanjing on the 10th. If I don't go to pick him up, he will definitely come to our house and eat a lot for three days before leaving. Mom, given how much that fat guy eats, who will cook for him? You know, your son has been cooking for him for two years in London. If this fat guy really comes to our house this time, I will never cook for him, even if you kill me."
When Yang's mother heard this, she shuddered all over. In the past two years, when she talked to her son on the phone or video chatted with him, she had communicated with Guo Xiaoxiang a lot. She certainly knew how terrible the little fat boy's appetite was.
Seeing his mother's expression soften, Yang Jing continued to strike while the iron was hot and said, "Mom, actually, this trip to Yanjing is not just to pick up Fatty. My college classmates are planning to hold a class reunion on the 11th. Now more than 30 people have signed up. Yesterday I also said in the group that I'm back. If I don't go to the party, will that group of classmates, led by Wang Jiazan, come to our house? Will you cook then? Or will you cook?"
After Yang Jing said this, Yang's mother was immediately at a loss. She spread her hands and said to her husband, "You old man, you only know how to drink. Can't you think of a solution?"
Father Yang put the wine cup on the table leisurely and said with a smile: "Silly woman, how old is your son? You still have to control him like when he was little. Since you insist on controlling him, if Xiaojing's classmates really come over, it will be your own fault. If you don't cook, who will?"
Mother Yang was choked by what Father Yang said.
Father Yang picked up a peanut and put it in his mouth, chewing it with a "crunch-crunch" sound. "I say, you silly woman, your son is now independent, just let him go and fly! Do you still want to control your son until he is eighty years old? Besides, your son can make a lot of money now, so we should stop blocking his way and let go when we should."
After a pause, Yang's father said to Yang Jing: "Son, if you want to go, just go. Don't worry about the family and don't listen to your mother's nagging."
Yang Jing was overjoyed, picked up the wine glass and said: "Dad is mighty and wise, come, your son will toast you."
Mother Yang was so angry that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The next morning, before six o'clock, Yang Jing went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for his parents. It was nothing special, just a stir-fried tomato noodle with two poached eggs and two small pickles.
After doing all this, at six o'clock Yang Jing said goodbye to his parents, went downstairs with his backpack, got into the car, and drove straight to Yanjing.
However, things did not go as planned. After driving more than 100 kilometers on the Beijing-Taipei Expressway and just arriving in Singapore, the expressway ahead was closed due to heavy fog. Yang Jing had no choice but to drive off the expressway.
In fact, when they set out in the morning, there was already some mist in the sky. Yang Jing originally thought that the fog would dissipate after a while, but he never expected that the fog would become thicker and thicker, so that the highway had to be closed.
Shicheng is a prefecture-level city in Hebei Province, bordering Tianqu City. It is the only way from Tianqu to Yanjing. The city is called Shicheng because there is an iron lion cast in the Western Zhou Dynasty.
The iron lion is very famous. It is the oldest and largest iron lion in China. In ancient times, this iron lion was called "Zhenhaihou" by the people. It is said that it was cast to suppress floods.
Lion City is about 200 kilometers away from Yanjing. If the highway is unobstructed, it will take more than two hours to reach Yanjing.
But this time the heavy fog was of no use.
Although there is a National Highway 104 from Lion City to Yanjing, due to the closure of the highway, all the large trucks that were originally taking the highway were driven off. With so many large trucks concentrated on National Highway 104, the spacious highway immediately became extremely congested.
Of course, the traffic police must be the happiest when facing this situation. The reputation of the traffic police in Singapore is very big...
When talking about this, Yang Jing remembered a story about the traffic police in Singapore.
Speaking of that year, Yang Jing didn’t know which year it was, anyway, one day of that year, several traffic policemen from the Lion City Traffic Police Detachment went on the road to check cars, and they soon caught a tanker truck. Then, these traffic police comrades directly detained the vehicle on the grounds that the tanker truck was overloaded.
But the driver of the tanker truck was very wronged - my truck was empty, how could it be overloaded? If you want to fine me, you should at least give me a reasonable reason, right? My truck was obviously empty, but you insisted that it was overloaded. What kind of excuse is that?
But the driver was from another place, and he was helpless. In the end, the "overloaded" empty tanker was forcibly towed back to the parking lot, and the driver also faced a fine of 10,000 yuan.
A few days later, the driver paid the fine, and also paid the towing fee and parking fee. In total, the driver wasted more than ten thousand yuan.
What was unexpected was that after the man drove his car out, he turned around and ran to the Lion City Public Security Bureau to sue the Lion City Traffic Police Team.
