Chapter 421 What the hell, you want to go to the banquet too?

In the morning, in the No. 1 canteen of the steel rolling mill.

"Chen, my friend, why can't you add a small cake today? My fiancée Katerina wants to eat the small cake you made."

While going to the toilet, Yuri quietly slipped into the cafeteria, wanting Chen Jun to make a small cake for Katerina.

Yuri has been in high spirits in recent days, even walking with his head held high.

In the morning, Katerina acted coquettishly to Yuri and said that she wanted to have a piece of cake at noon.

After finishing morning exercises, Yuri naturally agreed.

Chen Ke is his friend, so naturally he would not refuse this request.

But what Yuri never expected was that after he expressed his request, Chen Jun actually waved his hand and refused.

"I'm very busy today. I have to cook a big pot of food for you. After I'm done, I have to go back to the yard for a banquet. The small cakes will wait until tomorrow." Chen Jun raised the big spoon and decisively rejected Yuri.

Yuri seemed extremely surprised and asked in a mixture of Chinese and Russian: "No, isn't the cake as important as the feast? What is the feast? Is it a ritual?"

In order to communicate effectively with Chen Jun, he has been working hard to learn foreign languages.

Now, even without the help of a translator, he can still express something by speaking and gesturing.

However, this self-created mixed expression gave Chen Jun a headache.

Chen Jun understands Russian now, so it would be fine if Yuri spoke Russian, but he had to speak this mixed language.

Just mix it in, the pronunciation is so fucking non-standard.

Even Chen Jun, who knows both Russian and Chinese, still had to work hard to understand it.

So, Chen Jun was cooking a big pot of food while listening to Yuri's chatter.

According to the original plan, Yuri and his team would leave the steel mill next week.

But Yuri made two requests to his superiors and was asked to stay for a while longer.

But I can only stay for one more month.

The past month or so has been particularly important to Yuri and his team.

There are even rigorous engineers who have made a reverse list to calculate how many meals they can still eat at the steel mill.

It would have been fine if they hadn't calculated it, but now they started to panic.

Eat one meal and have one less meal!

What’s even worse is that Chen Jun didn’t make the small cake that he promised to make for Katerina in the morning.

The sky is falling!

So Yuri kept blabbering, wanting Chen Jun to do something.

Chen Jun was so pestered that he had no choice but to patiently explain: "It's really not possible at noon today. I'll find time to do it for you in the afternoon or evening."

"Why not?" Yuri asked in a lame voice.

"It's noon, right? I'm going to a banquet at noon. Do you know what a banquet means? Forget it, I can't explain it clearly to a foreigner like you." Chen Jun felt a little tired.

“Why is eating a feast so important?”

"Because my neighbors invited me to a banquet. If I don't go, it would seem like I'm not giving them face." Chen Jun patiently explained, "You may not know much about banquets. It's when someone gets married and invites others to a sumptuous meal."

A very rich meal?

Yuri accurately grasped the key words, stretched his neck and asked: "Can I go to the banquet?"

Since Chen Jun said it was very rich, it must be very rich.

"What the hell are you talking about? You don't even know them when they get married." Chen Jun was made to laugh and cry by Yuri.

This guy is obviously an engineer from Russia, why is he like a foodie?

"Getting married! Do you know what a wedding is? It's a very formal occasion, with friends and family members attending. Why are you, a foreigner, joining in the fun?"

"Marriage? What is marriage?" Yuri obviously hasn't learned the word yet.

Forehead......

What is marriage?

Although Chen Jun knew how to say "marriage", it was not easy for him to say it in Russian in front of the entire kitchen staff.

I simply found a notebook and a pen from the shelf and drew a few strokes on the notebook.

"Do you understand? This is called marriage!" Chen Jun confidently showed the painting to Yuri.

Yuri: "????"

What is this stuff?

Getting married means painting?

Seeing Yuri’s confused face, Chen Jun thought for a while and drew a few more times on the notebook.

orz7

Yuri stared at the contents of the notebook for a long time, then shook his head in confusion.

What the hell!

What does this thing mean?

Still don't understand? Chen Jun couldn't help but frowned. For the first time, he felt that Yuri, the engineer, was not very smart.

So he repeated the two patterns three or four times in one breath.

When these patterns are displayed together, the picture is ready to emerge.

Yuri is not a single guy, he has a beautiful fiancée. After looking at the pattern for half a minute, he suddenly realized it.

"Oh, marriage, this is marriage!"

Yuri felt that his strange knowledge had increased again.

"That's right, this is a wedding. I have to go to a banquet at noon and don't have time to make you a cake." Chen Jun waved his hand, signaling Yuri to go and get busy and not stay in the kitchen.

Why does an engineer come to the kitchen every few days?

"No, I want to go to the feast!"

Yuri seemed to have figured something out and said excitedly.

ha? ?

Now it was Chen Jun's turn to be confused. You're going to the banquet instead of attending the factory's hospitality?

Are you sick in your brain?

"I want to go with you to the banquet!" Yuri seemed to have guessed that Chen Jun would refuse, so he said it in advance.

Chen Jun put the notebook and pen back on the shelf and sighed helplessly.

Yuri, this guy, his mind is always thinking about eating!

However, it didn't seem to be a big deal to go to the banquet. One more person wouldn't make much difference, so he could just pay a share of the money.

Moreover, given Xu Damao's personality, if foreigners come to the banquet, he will have more things to brag about.

"It's not impossible, but you have to pay more!"

Chen Jun patiently explained the rules of dining at a banquet, emphasizing that one must pay for dining at a banquet, otherwise one would be eating and drinking for free.

take money?

Yuri waved his hand, indicating that it was no problem.

He was even worried about Chen Jun's performance, so he took out ten yuan from his pocket and put it in Chen Jun's hand.

"Follow... follow the gift and enjoy the feast!"

Yuri's expression was extremely serious and pious, as if he had completed some sacred transaction.

hiss.......

ten bucks?

These engineers are really rich!

It only costs ten yuan to go to a banquet, Xu Damao is so steady that he won't lose money!

If Xu Damao could invite the entire engineering team to the courtyard to enjoy the feast, he would make a fortune.

However, Chen Jun would not bring the entire engineering team to the banquet, as that would be too conspicuous.

It’s no problem to take Yuri alone.

"Okay, then I will agree to it reluctantly. Come to the cafeteria early at noon and wait for me. I will take you to the courtyard for a feast." Chen Jun said with mixed words while gesturing.

"Ulla~~~"

Yuri understood the general idea, nodded excitedly, and then left the kitchen happily.
