April 3, 2018, the weather is sunny, suitable for moving, not recomnded for travel...
"Xiao Yu, have you packed everything?"
"Not yet, Sister took a half-day off to pack at ho today. Uncle, are we really moving to the new house today?"
Walking on the way to school, Xiao Yu seed a bit excited.
"Yeah, tonight Weiwei even said she wants to hold a housewarming ceremony at ho. Anyway, she must be craving for food, so let’s buy more groceries tonight."
"Yay! Then I’ll think about what to cook tonight."
"No need, just sit back today, and I’ll show off my cooking skills!" ng Lang said with a smile.
"Hmm? But Uncle, didn’t you say you only know how to cook noodles and are clueless about everything else?" Xiao Yu looked at him doubtfully.
Humph! Not know? That’s old news from several days ago.
Now, I’m not who I used to be...
Since the last ti, I’ve accumulated over eighty years of culinary experience, especially choosing the brother who decided to live out his life alone.
Even if it’s not ntioned in the book, I know for sure you wouldn’t be ordering takeout every day.
After so many years, even a pig would have learned to cook a table of dishes, right?
"Xiao Yu, you need to look at Uncle with a more progressive perspective. Ever heard the saying ’a day apart and you’ll see a change’? Just because I couldn’t yesterday doesn’t an I can’t today.
I’ve been learning these past two days, and I’ll show you my skills tonight."
Through the last ga, he realized his "life" wasn’t just limited to the information and skills ntioned on paper that he could use.
The ordinary daily life not ntioned also has a lot of potential to uncover.
It’s like a treasure trove; you wouldn’t realize how rich you are unless you see what’s inside your own vault.
And as for skills, they slowly beco truly yours only after you trigger and use them.
So, he decided to put in so effort. Not to ntion anything else, he would first master his living skills!
After all, having many skills doesn’t weigh you down!
"Really? How did you learn?" Xiao Yu was skeptical.
"I watched Douyin! The ladies there are not only beautiful, but they also know everything, like how to make snail noodles."
"Uh..."
"By the way, Xiao Yu, I heard you’ve been busy rehearsing for a play recently?" ng Lang suddenly asked.
"Oh! It’s our class’s program, really fun. Uncle, if our performance gets selected, you should co and watch!"
"There’s no problem going to watch the performance... But do you really like performing on stage, Xiao Yu?" ng Lang probed.
"Yeah... I really like it!" Xiao Yu glanced at ng Lang and giggled. She clenched her little fist.
"Don’t worry, Uncle. We’ll definitely get selected!"
emm...
Watching Xiao Yu enter the school, ng Lang fell into contemplation.
I haven’t interfered with Xiao Yu’s hobbies before, have I?
If the future trajectory doesn’t change, will Xiao Yu still choose to go into dicine?
So the ’like’ she ntioned... should only be a hobby, right?
"Sigh!" ng Lang couldn’t help but sigh.
I’ve just reached the marriageable age, and I’m already worrying about nurturing my child’s interests?
Why do I always have to suffer the troubles that I shouldn’t at this age...
[Is it because I’m too foolish and naive in love...]
Just then, the ringtone of the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly sounded, and ng Lang pressed to answer.
"Mr. ng, your car has been registered and is ready. Would you like us to deliver it to your address now?"
"So soon? Great, please send it to the address. Thank you!"
After hanging up the phone, ng Lang was a bit excited. After all, it was the first car of his life that truly belonged to him.
Seeing there was still ti, he went to the park for a morning jog, according to his health-conscious plan.
Panting, he returned to his rental room, took a bath, changed into the set of clothes he bought yesterday, and then started to pack.
A single man, there wasn’t much to pack—everything fit into one suitcase, and he was done!
Just as he finished, he received a call that the car had arrived downstairs.
Carrying his suitcase downstairs, he saw a compact white electric car already parked below.
"Mr. ng, hello!" A salesperson he had t at the dealership approached with a smile and handed him a set of keys.
"Here are your Idol mini keys. Please take good care of them, and if you encounter any problems with usage or after-sales service, please contact us at any ti."
"Alright, thank you for your hard work."
After sending off the salesperson, ng Lang excitedly walked around his new ride a couple of tis.
Yeah! Quite satisfied. It ets all my requirents of being stylish, not extravagant, low-key enough, and affordably priced!
"ng Lang? What are you doing?"
A puzzled voice suddenly ca from behind. Turning around, he saw Lin Haitang holding two black trash bags, apparently coming down to throw away trash.
ng Lang then rembered that Xiao Yu had ntioned Lin Haitang took half a day off to pack up for moving, so she must have been cleaning her room.
He laughed and pointed to the car next to him. "My new car. How is it, cool, right?"
"New car?" Lin Haitang paused for a second.
After taking a good look at the car in front of ng Lang, Lin Haitang’s expression turned strange.
"You call this cool?"
The Idol mini, a new 4-seater compact electric car launched on the market this year.
Without going into the specifics... It stands out for being cute and compact.
However, in the eyes of many, this kind of car... is only slightly better than the ’old-tir’ scooters commonly seen on the streets...
