Chapter 763 759. Backbone
Finish cursing this sentence.

Dad Luo lowered his head and fiddled with his pile of bottles and jars, without any reaction at all.

The food chain at home dictates that Luo Yihang has been disrespectful to him too many times, so he is too lazy to pay attention to him.

But Luo's mother did react.

"It's not fishing day yet, why are you trying to persuade your dad to go fishing! He just said that he has to work on autumn planting tomorrow, so the farming season cannot be delayed."

According to family rules, Dad Luo can only go fishing one day a week, and it's not time this week yet.

Luo Yihang waved his hand and said, "Autumn sowing is not important."

"Autumn planting is not important!", "What nonsense!"

The old couple spoke in unison and attacked together.

For those who work in agriculture, farming time is no joke.

Luo Yihang waved his hand, "Uncle Luo is in charge of the autumn sowing, and one day won't delay anything. If I don't go fishing, I'll be at a big loss. Because this fish is for a special person..."

After Luo Yihang told about the job he had taken on.

Luo's mother's attitude immediately changed 180 degrees, and she ordered Luo's father, "Go! You must go! If you don't catch a good fish tomorrow, don't come back!"
-
There are good fish, but someone has to cook them.

The most suitable person to cook fish for this special person is not Master Xu, nor Master Lin.

It was Chef Wang from the cafeteria of No. 3 Middle School.

The next day.

Luo Yihang came to No. 3 Middle School early in the morning.

It’s early September and school has already started.

Master Wang returned to his job and watched the children eat happily.

I'm busy preparing lunch in the cafeteria today.

He was halfway through instructing his disciples when he was pulled away by Luo Yihang.

I came out from the kitchen and found a place to sit in the cafeteria.

Luo Yihang was still the same, smug and proud, and disrespectful, "You have to come with me tomorrow and cook a meal for someone. I tell you, you have to perform well, the meal tomorrow will be the glory of your life, after you finish this meal, you have to smile with your eyes closed."

"Heh~~" Master Wang didn't know where he learned this, he was always sarcastic, "Really? Which high-ranking official or wealthy businessman are you? You are doing me such a great favor, and you are asking for my help. You still want glory, and you still want to close your eyes, go away, I won't serve you."

Luo Yihang was not angry at all, but had a regretful expression, "Don't regret it, I'll find someone else."

"Go, go look for it." Master Wang waved his hands as if swatting away a fly.

Luo Yihang was not polite at all and turned around and left.

As he walked, he sighed, "What a pity! A 98-year-old man wants to taste his hometown food again, but people are not willing to cook it."

Sure enough, after walking a few steps, Master Wang called out, "Come back, Luo boy, who did you say was ninety-eight?"

"He's just a fellow villager from Yang County. You don't want to do it, so forget it." Hook the old man up, Luo Yihang is still holding on.

The old man had no moral principles, so he started to fight.

He raised his foot and kicked Luo Yihang, "If you have something to say, say it quickly."

Luo Yihang reached out and helped Master Wang. At his age, he was not afraid of falling if he moved around.

Help Master Wang to sit down first.

Luo Yihang also sat down, cleared his throat, and said solemnly: "Tomorrow, I would like to ask you to go with me to Laifeng County, Enshi, Hubei, to cook a meal for an old man."

"He is..." Luo Yihang paused and said word by word: "A hero who walked out of Shuangmiao Village, Machang Town, Tianhanyang County. During the War of Liberation, he was awarded first-class merit three times and second-class merit once. He was twice awarded the honorary title of "Combat Hero" and the People's Meritorious Service Medal, and a special meritorious service. In 3, he was awarded the title of "Model of the Times" and was selected as the "Most Beautiful Struggler" and the recipient of the "Medal of the Republic", the old hero Zhang Fuqing. The backbone of the Republic!" As soon as the words fell, Master Wang stood up suddenly. He stood up with a lot of force and swayed for a while.

Luo Yihang quickly stood up and supported the old man, helping him sit down, "Do you know?"

"Nonsense!" The old man was quite angry, "Why didn't you say so earlier!"

"I told you, but you didn't believe me." Luo Yihang spread his hands.

"What the hell!" Master Wang's eyes widened, but he couldn't help grinning, "Did Mr. Zhang really ask me to cook for him? Did your kid not play with others?"

"No." Luo Yihang answered very straightforwardly.

The old man got angry on the spot.

"It's not the old hero who asked you to go, it's me who fought for the opportunity for you."

Luo Yihang immediately followed up with another sentence.

Master Wang smiled instantly, "Good, good boy."

The face changes so quickly.

Tsk tsk~~
Okay, that’s the end, no more teasing.

The frightened old man's blood pressure went up again.

"Let me tell you from the beginning."

"Yesterday I went to a meeting of the municipal party committee and heard something. Every year before the National Day, our city sends people to visit Mr. Zhang's home to express their condolences."

"It's almost here. The city called a few days ago to ask about the old man's health and to arrange a time for a visit. Zhang's daughter answered the phone. During the conversation, she mentioned that the old man had mentioned his hometown several times recently, talking about the mountains and water at home, and the rice he grew when he was a child. She also mentioned whether we could bring some local specialties with us."

"The old man is old and misses home. He last came back in 86, and it has been more than years."

"But Mr. Zhang is disabled and can't come back."

"I said at the time that it's not enough to just bring local specialties. We should also bring the chef with us to Mr. Zhang's home and cook for him the taste of home."

"Who can do it? Of course it's you, Master Wang."

Luo Yihang finished telling the whole story.

Master Wang slammed the table with a bang!
"That's great! I, the old man, have to do it. When do we leave? What do we need to prepare?"

"Vegetable tofu from Yang County, Jiangshui noodles from Ma Chang, Xianggu rice from Xigou Village..." Luo Yihang listed several things.

Master Wang is still counting on his fingers.

As a result, Luo Yihang took a deep breath and said, "The city has prepared all these. You should prepare a few more stories."

Master Wang remembered it in vain and was about to glare.

I was distracted by the last sentence, "What's the story?"

Luo Yihang was not joking this time. "This is what I thought. I'd invite you. First, you have good skills. Second, you are old. You can chat with Mr. Zhang. People in the city will introduce the things in Yang County. You can talk to Mr. Zhang about the children of No. 3 Middle School, the flowers of the motherland. The old man will definitely like to listen."

"Yes, yes, yes." Master Wang is now obedient and assures, patting his chest, "I know the most about the kids. I can see clearly which one can eat and which one is picky."

"Okay." Luo Yihang nodded, pulled Master Wang and ran straight to the teaching building.

This old man is unreliable, let's go find Teacher Qu...
-
Another day passed.

The city sent Secretary Cao as a representative to express condolences.

I picked up Luo Yihang and Master Wang, loaded a full trunk with stuff, and headed straight to Laifeng County, Enshi, Hubei...
