Chapter 124 Entertaining Leaders

Wen Xiuyuan nodded, and then the village chief asked them to rest first while he made arrangements.

The county magistrate is still here with us.

As soon as Li Youde went out, he went to find Lin Xiuzhen.

After all, the vegetables from Lin Xiuzhen's family are the most delicious in the village.

In addition, Lin Xiuzhen used to be a chef in the town, and no one in the village knew better cooking skills than her.

So when the time comes, she will be asked to help with the cooking.

Lin Xiuzhen was busy working in the fields when she saw the village chief coming to see her.

"Xiuzhen, are you free? I'm coming to your place to buy some vegetables, and I'd like to trouble you to cook lunch for me."

"What's wrong? Is a big leader coming?" Lin Xiuzhen asked with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Li Youde actually nodded.

"Isn't he a big boss? Even the county magistrate is here, so I'll have to trouble you to cook for lunch. Your family has delicious vegetables, so bring some over. I'll charge you the price when the time comes."

"Okay, it's not a big deal. Do you really need a few cents from me?" Lin Xiuzhen waved her hand indifferently.

Then she picked up the basket at hand and started picking vegetables. There were quite a few delicious vegetables in this season. Lin Xiuzhen took a little of each to see what the leader liked to eat.

Afterwards, he followed Li Youde to the yard near his home.

"Before you asked someone to clean up this yard, it was for the leader to live in, right?"

"Yes, the leader notified us early in the morning."

Li Youde was actually still very nervous.

After all, this leader seems to be of high status. I heard that he came from Kyoto.

I don't know why I suddenly came here.

Lin Xiuzhen didn't ask too much. Knowing that he was a big leader, all she had to do was give him a good reception.

As for other things, she really didn't have much desire to find out.

Soon Li Youde knocked on the door.

Wen Xiuyuan, who happened to be at the door, came over to open it.

As soon as the gate opened, their eyes met, and both of them couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise on their faces.

Lin Xiuzhen was shocked. She didn't expect to meet him here.

Wen Xiuyuan obviously didn't expect that he would run into Lin Xiuzhen even though he had arrived in this village. He became alert almost subconsciously.

After all, it happened so coincidentally once or twice that it was hard to doubt whether Lin Xiuzhen was someone with ulterior motives and deliberately followed the leader to this place?

Lin Xiuzhen was much calmer. She was only surprised for a moment and then nodded at the other party.

"Comrade Wen, I have brought the person here."

"Well, come in!"

Seeing this, Wen Xiuyuan had no choice but to let the person in, but he looked at Lin Xiuzhen with obvious vigilance.

It seems that we still have to keep an eye on this person. It would be best if there is no problem with him. However, if he dares to do anything to the leader, Wen Xiuyuan will definitely not let it go.

Lin Xiuzhen found it a bit strange that this person had been staring at her warily since she came in.

Although she didn't understand that look, Lin Xiuzhen still felt it.

I feel like I have a thorn in my back.

However, I still went up to ask the leader about his taste.

"The leader prefers lighter tastes, so any vegetables will do, just cook as you like."

Lin Xiuzhen now understood.

There is not much chance, but the appetite will be lighter.

So what Lin Xiuzhen has to do at noon is to eat lighter food.

Lin Xiuzhen looked at the vegetables in her hand and made a plan in her mind.

For example, cabbage in clear soup, pork ribs with potatoes, scrambled eggs with bitter gourd, stir-fried bean sprouts, and a corn tortilla. All of this is almost enough.

Lin Xiuzhen also asked about the tastes of the other two people.

Naturally, the county magistrate also suggested that light food be eaten. Since the leaders all ate light food, he could only follow the leaders' taste.

However, Wen Xiuyuan said that he likes to eat food with stronger flavors.

Lin Xiuzhen nodded and thought about it. She planned to make a dish of boiled pork slices later. The ingredients were not complete, so Lin Xiuzhen went home to get some peppers.

First, I made a few light dishes, and then made the last dish, boiled pork slices.

Wen Xiuyuan said that he came to help, but in fact his eyes were always staring at Lin Xiuzhen cooking.

He did not miss any move, for fear that Lin Xiuzhen had done something behind his back.

Lin Xiuzhen was helpless.

What's wrong with this person?

Why do you keep staring at yourself?

Just stare at yourself.

This look in his eyes when he looks at me makes me feel like I'm about to do something bad as if I'm being stared at.

"Um, Comrade Wen, do I have any questions?"

"No? Why do you say that?"

"Nothing, I just noticed you were staring at me and I thought there was something on my face."

Lin Xiuzhen also went straight to the point. After all, being stared at like this all the time would really affect one's performance.

Wen Xiuyuan probably didn't expect the other party to be so direct.

He immediately calmed down a little and helped Lin Xiuzhen.

Needless to say, you can tell at first glance that Lin Xiuzhen does have some skills.

The action of cooking is so smooth.

Lin Xiuzhen was a little shocked when she saw this leader just now. Then she saw that the leader was coughing all the time. She immediately thought about using her spiritual spring water to see if it could improve the situation?

I didn't expect that this person has been staring at me from the beginning until now.

Lin Xiuzhen could only drop a few drops of spiritual spring water into the pot while the other party was not paying attention.

She thought she was doing it without anyone noticing, but she didn't notice that Wen Xiuyuan noticed a slight change in the air and felt that everything around him became sweeter.

But this feeling only lasted for a moment, and soon it was submerged in the normal water.

But he could clearly feel that the taste seemed to be even more fragrant.

This already tasted good, and now it’s even better.

He frowned and looked at Lin Xiuzhen's busy back in confusion.

This woman is indeed weird.

But he remained calm.

Soon it was time for the last dish.

Lin Xiuzhen was worried that the other person might choke, so she was very considerate and asked him to leave.

I didn't expect that this person would not appreciate it.

Lin Xiuzhen was not polite.

Just put a big pot of chilies into the pan and stir-fry to bring out the aroma, then add water.

Wen Xiuyuan covered his nose and tried to endure the discomfort.

I didn't expect it to be so choking.

Soon, the marinated fish fillets were put into the pot. Lin Xiuzhen chose the right time and quickly cooked them.

Finally, pour hot oil on it to stimulate the aroma.

"Okay, it's time to eat."

"Um."

Wen Xiuyuan suspected that this man did it on purpose, and he started coughing after leaving the kitchen.

The county magistrate and other senior leaders outside were now getting a little restless.

This smell is so delicious.

The two were originally chatting, but later on, they stopped chatting and just stared at the kitchen.

Now that dinner was finally about to begin, the county magistrate stepped forward to help serve the dishes.
