After making a dinner appointment with the wealthy Mrs. Jiang, Xia Yu was almost ready for lunch.
Because we were going back to Shanghai in the afternoon, today's lunch was even more sumptuous than yesterday's. Old Xia went downstairs and killed the chicken himself.
After bleeding, scalding and gutting the fat and tender hen, my mother chopped it into pieces and threw them all into a casserole to make soup.
A local chicken like this is most delicious when stewed into soup. The taste of a hen is better than that of a rooster, but the meat of an old hen is a bit tough. So Xia Yu asked Uncle Tai to help catch a young hen, so that the soup would be delicious and the meat would be tasty too.
After the soup was ready, Xia Yu asked his mother to serve him a big bowl.
Things are different now. He won’t eat less at noon just because someone treats him to a meal in the evening. He will just eat more at noon and then exercise for a while in the afternoon to burn off the food.
Not long after lunch, the car to pick up Xia Yu arrived downstairs.
It was too troublesome to transfer by high-speed rail to Shanghai, and the direct bus was too tight, so Xia Yu booked a business car in advance to take him directly from his doorstep to Shanghai.
This time it wasn't a sedan that arrived, but a somewhat ugly-looking Mercedes-Benz MPV.
Xia Yu was still very young before, and he always liked to judge a car by its appearance. But later he realized that as long as you are not driving yourself, it doesn’t matter whether the car is ugly or not. The most important thing is to be comfortable in the car.
This Mercedes-Benz V-Class meets Xia Yu's requirements very well. As soon as he opened the door and sat down in the seat, it felt like he was sitting in a massage chair.
You know what, this car actually has a massage function. After saying goodbye to his parents, Xia Yu fumbled to turn on the second gear massage function, and then closed his eyes comfortably.
If you don’t have time to take a nap at home, you might as well sleep for a while in the car. Anyway, the three-hour drive is extremely long, and if you don’t sleep, you can only play with your phone.
But this car is really comfortable and not expensive. Not counting the license plate, it only costs about 700,000 yuan. No wonder many celebrities buy it as a nanny car.
So does he want to get one?
Xia Yu thought about it and gave up this plan. Wouldn't it be nice to rent a car if he had money? If he bought a car, it would not only be troublesome to get a license plate, but also to hire a driver.
So far, Xia Yu only has one employee, Uncle Tai. If he doesn't plan to set up a makeshift team, he doesn't plan to recruit more people. After all, finances are very troublesome.
Thinking of this, Xia Yu fell asleep. When he was woken up by the driver, they had already arrived in Shanghai. In front of the car was the gym where he had signed up for a membership.
The last time I went to the gym was on Thursday. The night before I went back, I realized three days had passed. So I took advantage of the afternoon when I was free and made an appointment with my coach to come to the class. I also asked the driver to drive directly to the gym downstairs when he returned to Shanghai.
"Thank you, Master. I will call you next time I take a ride!"
After saying goodbye to the driver, Xia Yu went upstairs with his bags, and then went to the front desk to ask for another key.
He has a fixed locker in this gym, but he has a lot of stuff in it, so he can only fit a camera bag at most, and he needs another locker to put his computer bag.
After I changed my clothes in the locker room, the coach came over. As usual, we warmed up first, and then did equipment training.
His fitness efficiency is not as good as when he had the Buff, but his figure is still getting better little by little.
He has not lost weight compared to before, but the excess fat has turned into muscle, making Xia Yu look stronger when he takes off his clothes. However, he is still far from the muscular tycoon like Coach Han, who really doesn't eat anything except nutritious meals and fruits.
Without eating animal fat, the meaning of life would be reduced by half. On the other hand, he could still eat seafood, after all, seafood is high in protein. However, Xia Yu could not stand a life with only seafood and chicken breast.
After sweating for more than an hour, the sky outside the gym gradually darkened. After a clear day, it did not become as long as in summer. The lights came on, reminding Xia Yu that it was time to get ready for the appointment.
Instead of rushing to the Bund, Xia Yu took a taxi and went to Chaolu Farm, which was not far away.
He threw all his things in the master bedroom and planned to come back tomorrow to get them, then he would leisurely head to the Bund.
Sitting in the car, Xia Yu looked at the scenery outside the window, and was looking forward to what classmate Xiao Jiang would treat him to dinner tonight.
Hot pot? Japanese food? Western food? Chinese food?
The huge Magic City gathers food from all over the world, both common and uncommon, you can eat them all as long as you are willing to spend money. Eat them a few times and in a few different restaurants, and as long as you have a moderate taste, you will be able to tell whether the food is authentic or not.
So far, Xia Yu hasn’t eaten much outside, and there are still countless delicious foods waiting for him to taste. How can people not look forward to it?
There is some traffic jam in Shanghai during the rush hour after get off work, but even if you transfer to the subway at this time, the situation will not be much better. The popular lines will definitely be packed like cans, so it is better to stay in the car and wait!
When they got off the bus at the Bund, there were only a few minutes left before the agreed time. Xia Yu ran to the agreed intersection and looked around but couldn't see Jiang Baiying.
Was there a delay on the road?
Just as Xia Yu was thinking this, a small hand patted his shoulder from behind.
"Senior, I'm here!"
Xia Yu turned around and saw that the person wearing the iconic white clothes was Jiang Baiying.
But when did Xiao Jiang become so lively? There was a smile on her face without any concealment, which showed that she must be in a good mood.
This is completely different from her before, but after all, she is still a girl who is still two months away from turning eighteen, so being lively is a good thing!
"Mr. Jiang, is there something happy happening today? I see you look very happy."
After thinking about it, Xia Yu asked, after all, he had just rejected the other person yesterday.
"Really? Senior, you have a sharp eye. Let's talk while we walk!"
Jiang Baiying was a little surprised to see that Xia Yu had seen through her, but she had invited Xia Yu out for dinner today because she wanted to share this joy with him.
Jiang Baiying then talked about another farm next to Chaolu Farm.
"This morning, my dad and I went to see it in person. This Wanfeng Farm has 220 acres. The water area is a bit smaller, only about 30 acres, but the previous owner planted a lot of maple trees. It will definitely be beautiful in the fall."
When Jiang Baiying said this, her eyes lit up, as if she had already imagined such a scene.
"What a coincidence! I never thought we'd be neighbors one day."
After hearing this, Xia Yu said with emotion, thinking in his heart that they were indeed from a wealthy family. He didn't sell the farm, but someone bought the one next door to his. He wished that he could be as carefree as this one day.
It would be a lie to say that he was not envious, but while he was envious, Xia Yu also firmly believed that he would be able to do the same one day.
It’s just over 10 million, just swipe the card!
"Senior, we're here!"
Jiang Baiying stopped in front of a Western restaurant.
