Chapter 416 Hail. Going out to sea
Shen Changyuan pulled Feng Zhuoyi forward and walked quickly. He now had an important task, which was to help Feng Zhuoyi integrate into the group as much as possible.
Li Qing walked at the end and smiled at Chu An. Everything was said without words.
In the whole world, Xiao An is the most special!
The New Year’s Eve dinner combines lunch and dinner into one and is still eaten in the cafeteria. The tables, chairs and benches in the cafeteria are put together to form four long tables and arranged in a square, leaving an empty space in the middle. If someone wants to perform a talent, they go to the middle.
The meal was originally scheduled to start at four o'clock, but because Chu An brought back a lot of good things, Wang Youfa added four more dishes.
Roast suckling pig, roast whole lamb, roast beef and mutton skewers and braised large pieces of meat. No special ingredients are used, just sprinkled with appropriate salt, cumin and chili powder. Only the most authentic way of eating can bring out the aroma of the meat.
Half of the people cried during this New Year's Eve dinner, and the rest almost had tears in their eyes. I don't know who started it, but when they sang "Unforgettable Today", a group of grown men danced and ran away eight hundred miles, just because they were happy.
After singing the group song, Liu Xiaohan and Meilin sang an inspirational song from a certain platform at that time. As a result, the remaining half of the people couldn't hold back their tears and shed tears during the New Year's Eve dinner.
Everyone ate until two in the morning. Some people fell asleep on the table, while others put their arms around each other and comforted each other. Everything will be fine. It’s right to follow the boss. The boss is my god.
Those who are still sitting here are all friends for life and death.
The three captains and Lao Chu were also drunk. The four of them put their heads together and no one knew what they were talking about. No one was allowed to go over to listen.
Chu An kept looking at Gu Ye and didn't let him drink too much. He thought that he shouldn't try everything at his growing age, so he was very obedient.
At this time, they were the only two who could still sit properly on the stools.
Gu Ye moved closer to Chu An and looked at her with his head tilted. Although he didn't drink, his face and ears were red.
He said shyly, "Actually, I can sing, too."
Chu An knew that he remembered that when he just entered high school, he caught up with the National Day singing competition. It was Gu Ye's friend who invited a band to accompany him, and the class won first place.
But the next day, Manta talked to him and told him not to associate with those bad people in society. Manta had good intentions at the time, but Big Dog didn't give her face, so the two of them had a grudge.
"You can go to the middle and sing a song." Chu An suggested.
“I just want to sing it for you.”
Chu An fell into deep thought. Big Dog had followed her all the way and had experienced more dangers than anyone else. He must have been under a lot of psychological pressure, but he had never shown it and never complained. He was definitely a trustworthy teammate.
"You have to think it over carefully. If you really only want to sing for me, then you can only sing for me from now on!"
Gu Ye smiled brightly, and unconsciously his face had the outline of a man's hardness. "Well, I will sing to you alone forever."
…
On the first and second year of junior high school, Li Qing and Shen Changyuan allowed everyone to indulge themselves, but they were not allowed to get drunk or cause trouble, and they were not allowed to go out and do anything illegal.
Everyone patted their chests and made promises, mainly because they knew who to follow would give them meat to eat. They didn't want to live a life with no food to eat, and even if someone put a knife to their necks, it would be useless.
On the third day of the Chinese New Year, everyone started to concentrate. Shen Changyuan led the village chief, Uncle Zhao and others to the dock to look at the boats. The dock was also about to send out a ship, and proposed to take them for a while, and also provide five experienced seamen for each ship. This good thing was naturally agreed.
On the other side, Chu An, Lao Chu, Gu Ye and Li Qing sent Feng Zhuoyi to the Shengtang base and sent him all the way to the suburbs of Xiwan.
Feng Zhuoyi parked the car on the side of the road, and he and the Wang family father and son got out. Then Gu Ye parked the Hummer behind the Wrangler, and the four of them got out as well.
"After sending you a thousand miles, we must say goodbye. Let's stop here." Feng Zhuoyi hugged the three men and shook hands with Chu An gently. "Thank you, Xiao An, you are really special."
"Hey, don't set your sights on my daughter." Old Chu said in a pretentious tone.
"How could that be? I'm already that old."
"That's right, but I don't object to you getting married soon. I also want to be the godfather of your child, hahaha."
"These days... never mind, let's not talk about that. I'll be waiting for you in Sheng Tang."
"Okay." Lao Chu agreed, then looked at Wang Youfa, "Brother Wang, I'll leave Zhuozi to you to take care of."
"Don't worry, I have a few friends in Sheng Tang and we can take care of each other." Wang Youfa said.
A few more words were exchanged between the two of them, and Feng Zhuo waved his hand and got into the car, rolling down the window to say goodbye, "Xiao An, thank you for the car and the food."
Chu An took out the Wrangler from the space in advance and gave it to the three of them as a farewell gift. Naturally, there was enough food prepared in the car for them to reach Sheng Tang.
"Bon Voyage."
Everyone waved goodbye. Lao Chu looked at the direction where the car disappeared. He felt like he was in a dream. Everything was unreal, but the wounds on his body were real, and the girl beside him was also real.
He suddenly asked, "Xiao An, have you contacted Mou Ci recently?"
"We were in touch a while ago, but not recently." Chu An frowned, "Why are you asking about him suddenly?"
Lao Chu smiled and said, "It's okay. I just think it's not easy for this child to have such an unreliable mother."
Chu An looked at him in surprise, "You...shouldn't you be considerate of your own daughter first?"
"Hahaha...am I that unreliable?"
Gu Ye had already turned the car around, and Chu An rolled his eyes and got on the passenger seat first.
Love in the last days may be cheaper than in the heyday, just for a bite of food, a piece of clothing or a little help.
But...that's for other people, Lao Chu should...still believe it.
On the day of officially setting out to sea, the village chief took out the statue of the sea god from his home, which was not a person but a piece of stone. He asked everyone to offer sacrifices according to the village rules and then kneel down to worship.
The ceremony was simple and everyone was sincere, doing what they were told. At the end, Li Qing even gave his three boats names.
Koi No. 1, Koi No. 2, Koi No. 3, Koi objection is invalid.
No. 1 is a purse seine boat, responsible for catching fish from the upper reaches of the sea. It is led by Shen Changyuan and Uncle Zhao is the pilot.
No. 2 is a trawler, responsible for catching fish in the middle and lower layers as well as shrimps and crabs on the seabed. It is led by Li Qing and the village chief’s son Bao Jin is the naval officer.
No. 3 is a sea fishing boat, responsible for catching some large fish. It is led by Koi and Wang Peng, a fellow fishing friend from Uncle Zhao's village, is the guide.
In the dawn light, three fishing boats left the harbor, facing the rising sun and starting a new day.
Chu An, Gu Ye and Lao Chu followed Li Qing's boat.
In the end, Chu An did not stop Bo Zai and Yun Yun from boarding the ship. He just arranged them in Shen Changyuan's team and asked Fei Maotui to be responsible for "taking care of them".
Before boarding the boat, Uncle Zhao called Chu An aside and said very embarrassedly that Yunyun had thrown away all the medicine they sent her. She thought her eyes could not be cured, and wanting her to treat her eyes was a deliberate humiliation to her.
"This child is so young, and she already knows the word humiliation. It's really weird. I have no choice but to let her do what she wants. It's just a pity to waste the medicine."
"It's okay, don't worry about it." Chu An just gave some dehumidifying herbs, which couldn't cure the eyes.
Little girl, don't commit suicide, otherwise no one can save you.
Chu An stood on the deck and looked at the shore. The noise of the harbor gradually disappeared behind him, replaced by the sound of waves hitting the hull. A new journey began here.
