Chapter 58 Family Dinner
Dad Bai in the living room played football with Nick.

"Nick, CCTV broadcasted several of your games. In fact, at the beginning, I liked to watch Frankfurt's games. After all, there is our Chinese player Yang Chen there. But later, I found that Borussia Mönchengladbach's games are also good, especially when you play football. There is a little passion in your stability, fast speed, and great strength, so I specifically watched your games. Especially the two games against Leverkusen and Bayern Munich. It is really your classic. The champion and runner-up of the Bundesliga this year are in You didn't get any benefits in front of you, uncle likes you very much."

"Thank you uncle for your compliment. This year the team has indeed surprised many people. You must know that before the winter break, Borussia Mönchengladbach only scored 10 points. In the second half of the season, they actually scored 38 points. We also won a wave of 7 consecutive victories in the middle. The final ranking is not bad, No.8."

"Actually, look, Borussia Mönchengladbach is you and Deisler the most reliable. If you two can play well, you will definitely become stars in the future. By the way, isn't there a Chinese player in your team? What is his name, Li Yihuan? How is this player?"

"This guy is very good. In my opinion, Chinese football will probably rely on him in the future. After two years of playing in Borussia Mönchengladbach, he will definitely become the number one star in China."

"Really so good? Is it better than Wei Jun of our Xichuan team?"

"Uncle, although Wei Jun is great, he has spent his golden age in the Chinese League. He has no room for improvement. Li Yihuan is about to play in the Bundesliga. His own conditions are good. I think Wei Jun will definitely not be able to match him in the future."

"Hey, what a pity. We have many talented players in Xichuan. It would be great if we can go abroad as soon as possible. League A and European football are not the same concept at all. They play chess with a bunch of stinky chess baskets. After a long time, their level does not rise but declines. Their careers are hopeless."

"Uncle, you can't say that. If they can go out now, it's not hopeless. Like Wei Jun, he can still find his place in the middle and lower reaches of the Bundesliga. This will still be of great help to his future career. I know that Wei Jun has a very strong body and good physical fitness, which is very suitable for the Bundesliga. If he can maintain it well, he will play until he is 34 years old. There is no problem. Besides, after learning the advanced aspects of European football, isn't being a coach a continuation of his football career in the future?"

"Oh, you're right! How about this? I'll call the Provincial Football Association myself. Although the Xichuan team is competing for the league championship this year, I think it's more urgent for Wei Jun to play in the Bundesliga."

"Provincial Football Association? Can I buy your account?"

"Haha, don't you know, kid? Didn't my youngest sister tell your uncle what he used to do? These guys dare not listen to my advice, I will let them all dismiss get out of class!"

"Cow! Uncle, you are really a bull!"

Dad Bai did what he said, and immediately made a phone call.

"Hey, pick up Xiao Wang for me! Just say Mr. Bai is looking for him!"

"Oh, Bai Lao, what brought you here? What instructions do you have, please tell me!"

"Xiao Wang, I'm thinking about sending Wei Jun from the Xichuan team to play football in Germany. What do you think?"

"Ah? Bai Lao, are you kidding me? The Xichuan team has the A-A championship task this year. If Wei Jun leaves and fails to win the championship, the province will blame me. I can't afford it."

"Short-sighted! Without Wei Jun, the Xichuan team will not play? Now he is only 27 years old, which happens to be the golden age of a player. If he doesn't go out to see the world at this time, he will only be a Chinese star in his life. Needless to say, I now have a way for him to play in Europe. You can negotiate with the Brazilian coach of the Xichuan team. Wei Jun has to go during the transfer period of European football!"

"Ah? Old Bai, you really killed me. Well, I'll call Laota right away."

After hanging up the phone, Dad Bai laughed and said, "Haha, Nick, what do you think of Uncle's swift and resolute behavior?"

"Okay, uncle, you have done a great thing for Xichuan football and Chinese football today. How about it, my dad is a football agent. I'll call him and ask him to come over."

"Oh? Your dad is also in the football business? That's great, we two brothers will have a few drinks then."

The two were talking happily, and Bai Jie came out.

"Dad, Nick, it's time to eat."

"Okay, Nick, I'll let you eat authentic home-cooked Sichuan food today, I'm sure you'll like it, Yaomeier, take out Dad's bottle of Moutai. I have to have a few drinks with Nick."

Sitting at the table, Nick really had a table of Sichuan dishes, the color and aroma were so attractive that he almost drool.

"Come on, Nick, eat the spicy tofu made by Auntie."

Bai Ma enthusiastically began to add food to Nick, and it didn't take long for Nick's bowl to pile up.

"Mom, what are you doing?" Bai Jie saw Nick's embarrassment, and hurriedly helped out.

Nick said: "It's okay, it's okay, the dishes cooked by Auntie must be delicious, I will destroy them all."

"Hey, this guy is really honest, Auntie likes it."

After eating a few mouthfuls of the dish, Nick was sweating from the hotness. The spicyness of this Sichuan dish is not blown out, but the spicyness is in his heart, but it makes people appetite and feel very comfortable.

At this moment, Dad Bai poured a glass of wine for Nick, "Nick, come on, let's go together."

Moutai is not affordable for ordinary families in this era, but the wine is indeed good wine.

Nick drank quite a lot in his previous life, but this was the first time he drank it in his life. The familiar taste soon emerged in his body.

"Uncle, it's a good wine. It's good to drink."

"Haha, this is our national wine, of course it tastes good."

"I have to take a few boxes back with me later, um, consign them back."

"Okay, okay, uncle knows the general agent of Moutai in Sichuan, I'll ask him to get some boxes."

The atmosphere of the family dinner became more and more warm and intense, and there was nothing artificial about it because of Nick, a foreigner.And Bai Ma looked at the unrestrained Nick, and her affection for Nick increased steadily.This is really the mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, the more she looks at it, the more she likes it.

This meal is simply the most satisfying meal Nick has eaten since he traveled. The stomach of foreigners, the taste of Chinese people, drinking Moutai, eating spicy tofu, twice-cooked pork, spicy chicken, etc., Nick let go of the whole thing, and the requirements of professional players were also forgotten by him at the moment.

"Uncle, Auntie, today's dish is so delicious, let Bai Jie make it for me in the future, I like Chinese food." Nick said with a full belch after drinking a bowl of tomato and egg soup.

"Okay, okay, as long as you like it, you can let Yaomeier cook it for you. But if you want to eat authentic Sichuan cuisine, you have to come to Xichuan. Doesn't each season have a winter break and an intermission period? You just come over when the time comes. Uncle will accompany you to drink a few more glasses." Now Dad Bai also likes this German boy more and more now. A foreigner with a Chinese heart is really the best of the best.

And there is no barrier between cultures, only the strong family affection is left to make people happy physically and mentally. Both parents and mothers recognize this marriage in their hearts.
