Chapter 103 Hundred Family Meal
When they got home, Lin Xi and Han Jiarui washed up and sat on the sofa. They were still shaken up about what had happened previously.
Han Jiarui was even more curious about Chen Che.
Previously, she could not stand the fact that Chen Che was a soft boy. She did not expect Chen Che to stand up at the critical moment.
Han Jiarui looked at Lin Xi, who was sitting at the side.
“Lin Xi, has Chen Che received professional training in the past?”
Lin Xi frowned when she heard this.
Although the two of them had known each other for a long time, Lin Xi did not know much about Chen Che’s past.
“I don’t know either. Chen Che’s past is rarely mentioned.”
“I only know that Chen Che grew up eating from hundreds of families.”
Han Jiarui was even more shocked when she heard this.
Hundred Family Meal?
Lin Xi sank into her memories and slowly told him everything she knew.
When Chen Che was very young, his parents had died and he had no relatives.
The villagers took pity on him and asked Chen Che to go to one house today and change to another family for dinner tomorrow.
It was a village that raised Chen Che.
Although Chen Che had not been doing well all these years, he often helped the village with work.
When Han Jiarui heard Lin Xi’s words, she immediately felt a little emotional.
She did not expect Chen Che to have such a difficult childhood. This also made Han Jiarui even more interested in Chen Che.
After a few days, the show’s final battle was about to arrive.
The theme this time was to bring his girlfriend back to his hometown.
The production team would reimburse each group for their car fare and distribute $4000 as their monthly living expenses.
After Han Jiarui found out about this, she wanted to go with Lin Xi.
To put it nicely, she was worried about Chen Che and wanted to protect Lin Xi.
Lin Xi didn’t think too much about it and brought her best friend along.
Chen Che excitedly brought Lin Xi and the others onto the train home.
When the netizens in the live-stream saw that there was an additional person, they started discussing.
[Why is there another beauty here?]
[Could Old Scrooge Chen be two-timing?]
[This is too much! Why doesn’t such luck belong to me?]
Chen Che’s hometown was in a village under a small county.
Everyone sat on the train, and Han Jiarui couldn’t help but say.
“Chen Che, do we have a place to stay when we go back this time?”
Chen Che nodded. Although he had not returned for a long time, he had been in contact with the uncles and aunties in the village.
Although Chen Che’s old house was a little broken, the uncles and aunties in the village helped tidy it up.
It should not be a problem for him to go back now.
“Of course. If we go heat.”
back now, we can avoid the When Lin Xi heard Chen Che’s words, she asked worriedly.
“Chen Che, you haven’t gone back for so long. Is the house really still there?”
Chen Che smiled.
“Of course. The uncles and aunties in the village help tidy up every once in a while.”
Hearing this, Lin Xi was relieved, but Han Jiarui started to ask questions.
“Why did they clean for you? Did you pay for it?”
Chen Che shook his head naturally. Of course not. When the netizens in the live-stream saw Chen Che shake his head, they began to attack. [Old Scrooge Chen, just look at the name. You know that it’s impossible to spend money.]
[I now know that this woman is silly and sweet. Otherwise, why would she be with Old Scrooge Chen?]
[Why haven’t I met such a girl before?]
[Oh my god, open your eyes and take a look!]
After two days, Chen Che and the others finally arrived at the county city.
After leaving the train station, an old man went forward and reached for Lin Xi’s suitcase.
Lin Xi was shocked. She grabbed the box and refused to let go.
Han Jiarui hurried forward to help, not forgetting to shout.
“What are you doing, robbing in broad daylight?”
Chen Che did not know whether to laugh or cry when he saw this scene and hurriedly went forward to explain.
“Don’t be afraid. This is Grandpa Mou.”
Lin Xi and Han Jiarui were stunned. Lin Xi looked at Chen Che.
...
“You know him? Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
The two girls let go, and Grandpa Mou silently carried the box to a tricycle.
Han Jiarui tugged at Chen Che’s clothes curiously.
“Chen Che, why didn’t he say anything earlier?”
Chen Che explained with respect in his eyes.
“Grandpa Mou was a soldier when he was young. He participated in the war. After he retired from the army, he was a man of few words, but he was a very good person.” The few of them nodded when they heard this and did not ask further.
A netizen in the live-stream told the truth.
[I’ve seen this old man on television.]
[Previous poster, is it true?]
[I remember now. This old man once participated in a self-defense counterattack. In order to complete the mission, he lost a company of people. Only this old man and his two comrades were left.]
[So, this is the reason why the old man became silent?]
...
After putting down the luggage, everyone got on the tricycle.
Lin Xi and Han Jiarui looked at Chen Che awkwardly.
“Chen Che, Jiarui and I are both wearing dresses. It’s a little inconvenient.” Chen Che remembered that the two of them were wearing dresses. If they stood, they would easily be exposed.
Chen Che knocked on the driver’s window.
“Grandpa Mou, why don’t you go to the back?
I’ll drive. The two girls have to sit in the front too.”
Grandpa Mou didn’t say anything. He opened the door and got into the back of the car.
Lin Xi looked at Chen Che in embarrassment. “Is that a good idea?”
Chen Che smiled and patted Lin Xi, indicating that it was fine.
After everyone was seated, Chen Che stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the village. The netizens in the live-stream praised the beautiful scenery when they saw it.
[I didn’t expect Old Scrooge Chen’s hometown to be so beautiful?]
[This is an undeveloped treasure land.]
[If there’s a chance, I must travel.]
When they arrived at the courtyard, although it was a little dilapidated, it was very clean. There were some fruits and vegetables planted in the courtyard. Under a big tree, there was a swing.
Lin Xi and Han Jiarui looked at everything in disbelief.
Chen Che was also a little stunned. He did not expect the house to be taken care of so well after so many years. Grandpa Mou helped carry the luggage into the house and found Chen Che before he left. “Little Che, Old Li is slaughtering a pig in the afternoon. Your Auntie Li wants you to go over and eat.”
When Chen Che heard this, he knew that Eldest Li’s family had killed the pig because he had returned.
After all, it was not the New Year yet. Why would he suddenly kill a pig?
Chen Che scratched his head in embarrassment.
“Grandpa Mou, tell Auntie Li that there’s no need for that. We can go buy some vegetables later.” Grandpa Mou didn’t say anything and drove away in his tricycle.
Lin Xi walked to Chen Che’s side with anticipation on her face.
“Chen Che, what dishes are we going to buy later? Are you going to cook tonight?” Chen Che smiled and shook his head. “There’s no need. Auntie Li is killing pigs.
We’ll all go over and eat.”
Han Jiarui was a little embarrassed. “Are we really going? There are so many of us.
It’s not good, right?”
Lin Xi thought so too. With so many people going, wouldn’t they eat too much?
