Chapter 59: Willing to Become My Godfather
After eating a meal of dumplings stuffed with cabbage and meat, Cheng Xuyuan felt his stomach a little bloated.
Dumplings are delicious, but you can't eat them all the time! He had dumplings for lunch today! And Niu Changqing, who was so generous that he invited guests, also had dumplings.
The meal money was paid by Niu Changqing, but everyone had to take out their own food coupons.
When food was rationed, no one had enough food coupons.
What's more, at Niu Changqing's age, he still has a little boy at home who is eating his father out of money.
When it came to eating dumplings, Peng Xueli and Qin Yewei both looked drooling.
Although Cheng Xuyuan was somewhat reluctant in his heart, since these three had already been decided, he could only pretend to be expectant and accept them with pleasure.
Fortunately, Niu Changqing also ordered two dishes.
A plate of Chiba tofu and a plate of stir-fried cabbage with meat, although the total cost was less than one dollar, it made Cheng Xuyuan's mouth drool.
Because he is still in the revision period, Cheng Xuyuan has basically stayed at home to write these two days. Of course, he also went out to collect folk songs during this process.
The manuscript of "Desire" continued to increase at a rate of 6,000 words per day.
“Boom boom boom!”
Hearing the knock on the door, Cheng Xuyuan put down the sugar-crust cookies he was eating.
He opened the door and saw Niu Wanjia standing outside with a steaming bowl in his hand.
"Xiao Cheng, what are you busy with?" Niu Wanjia said with a smile.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Hello, Team Leader Niu. I'm not busy. I'm just writing something."
Niu Wanjia smiled and said, "My friend from the supply and marketing cooperative gave me some sheep bones, and your sister-in-law made some mutton soup and asked me to give you a bowl to see how it tastes."
Mutton soup? Oh my god, no wonder it smells so good!
Cheng Xuyuan glanced at the big bowl in Niu Wanjia's hand, and hurriedly took it, thanking him sincerely: "Thank you, Team Leader Niu, thank you, sister-in-law. I've been craving for it these days, and I just want to have a bowl!"
Niu Wanjia said: "As long as you like it."
"By the way, today I read the new protagonist and supporting characters you wrote, they are very good."
“Although it is slightly worse than Eating Noodles in some aspects, the difference is very small.”
“I enjoyed it very much!”
At this point, Niu Wanjia asked, "Did it really take you more than ten minutes to write this skit?"
Cheng Xuyuan smiled shyly and said, "I had this idea before, so I did it right away."
Niu Wanjia looked at Cheng Xuyuan with a peaceful face and felt touched.
This young man is truly a genius!
The key is being humble.
"You eat first. If it's not enough, go home and get more." After chatting for a few words, Niu Wanjia said goodbye and left.
Cheng Xuyuan looked at the bowl of hot mutton soup in front of him and felt his stomach growling.
Although there is only a small amount of mutton in the soup, the aroma of the soup is irresistible.
Cheng Xuyuan toasted the steamed buns left over from lunch in the coal stove, and ate the toasted browned buns with mutton soup.
You know what, Chu Yueqin’s cooking skills are pretty good.
Just when Cheng Xuyuan had finished half of the mutton soup in three or two gulps, there was another knock on the door.
Cheng Xuyuan impatiently put down the steamed bun in his hand and opened the door.
Then he felt his eyes light up.
"Old Feng, do you have something to talk to me about?" Cheng Xuyuan asked with a smile, looking at Feng Laoer's shiny head.
Feng Laoer's face was full of admiration when he looked at Cheng Xuyuan.
After all, the young man was so good to him.
"Cheng... Teacher Cheng, I came to see you." There was a hint of excitement in Feng Laoer's voice.
What's wrong with Old Feng? Why is his voice a little strange? Although he was confused, Cheng Xuyuan still invited Old Feng to come in and talk.
Feng Laoer took a look at Cheng Xuyuan's residence, then put down the oil-paper bag in his hand and said, "Teacher Cheng, this is a small gift. Please accept it."
Cheng Xuyuan opened the oil paper package and saw a purple roast chicken inside.
Roast chicken!
Feng Lao Er actually took a roast chicken! You know, buying a roast chicken requires not only money, but also a ticket.
This roast chicken of Feng Laoer cost more than three yuan. It can be said that this is a very valuable gift.
"Old Feng, what are you doing?" Cheng Xuyuan asked seriously.
"Teacher Cheng, I'm here to thank you." Feng Laoer said excitedly, "This roast chicken is far inferior to the help you have given me."
"I...I don't even know how to thank you."
"You...you still set me as the performer in the new skit, which made the higher-ups decide that I will also perform in the skits with the main and supporting roles."
Feng Laoer said this excitedly, "You don't know, after your new skit was announced, many people, whether from our district cultural center or the city cultural center, wanted to perform in this skit."
“There are even some people from cultural centers in other districts who shamelessly want to compete for this role.”
"Although I wanted to fight for it, people told me that I had already acted in Eating Noodles, so I shouldn't think about anything else."
"But the higher-ups finally made the decision, saying that since you're writing about Feng Xiaoer, then we'll perform it according to your ideas and in its original form."
"You have no idea how excited I was when I heard the news."
"You helped me with all this!"
Cheng Xuyuan listened to Feng Laoer's story and finally understood what had happened.
He looked at Feng Laoer who was in tears of gratitude and knew that it was impossible to let the other party take the roast chicken away.
He smiled and said, "Old Feng, the higher-ups decided to let you play the role. I don't think it's because of what I wrote, but because your acting skills have been unanimously recognized by everyone."
"That's why I let you perform this skit."
"It has nothing to do with me."
Feng Lao Er said seriously: "Teacher Cheng, please don't be so modest."
"I know very well that if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be where I am today."
"Although I like acting, I have never been the protagonist. This time I was able to perform twice in one performance, all because of you, my benefactor."
"If you hadn't supported me, how could I have gotten such a good thing?"
"If you have anything to ask me in the future, please feel free to tell me. As long as it is within my ability, I will do my best to help you."
Cheng Xuyuan looked at Feng Lao Er, who was getting more and more excited and looked like he was about to bow down, so he could only say, "Old Feng, if you continue to be so polite, it will be too polite."
"How about this, let's not be so polite, let's borrow your roast chicken and have a couple of drinks."
"I still have some wine tickets. I'll go buy a pound of Erguotou before the supply and marketing cooperative closes. You wait for me at home."
The wine tickets were issued together with the grain tickets, two per person, and one ticket could buy one kilogram of wine.
When Feng Laoer heard Cheng Xuyuan say this, the smile on his face widened a little.
He smiled and said, "Teacher Cheng, I'll go get some wine. I have the wine ticket with me."
As he spoke, he quickly walked out the door without waiting for Cheng Xuyuan to pull him.
Cheng Xuyuan put on his coat and rushed out to chase him, but when he went down the stairs, Feng Laoer had already ridden his bicycle and ran more than 20 meters away.
This Feng Laoer is so agile.
After returning to the room, Cheng Xuyuan looked at the half-eaten bowl of mutton soup, hesitated for a moment, then quickly drank the half bowl of soup while it was hot. After washing the bowl, he knocked on Niu Wanjia's door.
"Brother Niu, sister-in-law, this soup is really delicious. Your cooking skills are really great."
Cheng Xuyuan's words made Chu Yueqin smile more. She smiled and said, "Xiao Cheng, there's more in the pot. If you want to drink, I'll give you another bowl."
"Sister-in-law, I'm full."
"I came here to see if Brother Niu is free. Some friends are coming over to drink and chat. If Brother Niu has time, why don't you help me entertain the guests?" Cheng Xuyuan hurriedly explained the purpose of his visit.
Niu Wanjia was tempted.
At this time, every man doesn't like to have a drink or two.
But alcohol is something you can't drink whenever you want.
This also requires a ticket.
"Then I'll go and accompany the guests with Xiao Cheng." Niu Wanjia couldn't help but speak first.
Chu Yueqin looked at her man who was fidgeting and sighed, "Xiao Cheng, you have to make some preparations."
"After watching your second skit, Boss Li plans to introduce you to Mr. Wan and the others after the performance."
"This opportunity is rare!"
During the period of new book release, I would like to thank all the big guys for their support. If you have votes, please support me. Thank you very much.
