Chapter 117 Is this a prank?
Several people were walking in the family area, attracting everyone's attention. Everyone was panicked and only dared to look after people had passed by, for fear of getting into trouble.
It’s not as if there weren’t activities in the town before, but this area is close to the military area after all, so generally nothing would affect here, let alone the family quarters.
Seeing Lu Yuxiu walking with them, everyone had their own guesses in their minds, and they only dared to make eye contact and did not dare to speak loudly.
Shen Yulan looked at the figure walking away and hurried home.
"Old Zhou, do you know what happened in Xiao Lu's family?" Shen Yulan asked anxiously while watching her husband reading the newspaper.
"..."
After waiting for a long time without getting a reply, Shen Yulan looked up at the newspaper in her hand, but her eyes were not on the newspaper at all.
"Xiao Lu family..." Before he could even ask, he saw Captain Zhou's serious expression.
"Don't worry about it." This is not a trivial matter. What will happen in the end depends on the result.
After hearing what her husband said, Shen Yulan didn't dare to ask any more questions. She was afraid that this matter was not that simple.
Zhao Xianglan looked at the person walking over with some worry on her face. She had been talking to Lin Xia in the morning, so why did this happen in the evening? She didn't know what would happen.
Seeing the person walking away, Zhao Xianglan was about to go in while muttering to herself, when she saw Zhang Sixi from next door standing at the door with a strange expression on his face.
Others didn't say they were worried about Lin Xia, but they would try to avoid the red sleeves if they could. However, Zhang Sixi didn't seem to be afraid at all, and there was a hint of happiness all over his body.
Not only was Zhang Sixi not afraid, but there was excitement in his eyes and he was looking forward to the next result.
Because she was the one who recruited this person. She failed to defeat Lin Xia in a direct confrontation last time, so there should be no problem this time, right?
When she had seen enough and was about to go back to the room, she saw Zhao Xianglan looking at her. Zhang Sixi looked at her and smiled. In fact, she had to thank her. If it weren't for Zhao Xianglan, she would not have thought of this idea.
Ever since she provoked Lin Xia that day without her responding, Zhang Sixi had been thinking about how to find another opportunity, until last night when she accidentally heard a lot of noise next door.
Zhao Xianglan learned how to make garlic sauce with Lin Xia yesterday. When she first smelled it, she only thought it smelled good, but she didn’t want Yang Hongmei to try it. She just felt that there was a new flavor in the house and she was very happy.
It wasn't until she made it herself and tasted it that she realized what deliciousness she had almost missed.
In the evening, when her husband came back, the family had a lively dinner. Many people came to visit because of the delicious food. The neighbors forced her to tell them the recipe.
When they heard that it was Lin Xia who taught them, they became curious. Zhao Xianglan inadvertently mentioned the first time she saw Lin Xia buying groceries, and she was really shocked by the generosity of her eyes.
Another family heard their husbands talk about the Lu family's food, which was as delicious as those in state-owned restaurants.
Everyone smelled the fragrance and murmured, wondering how the food Lin Xia cooked was, and whether they would have the chance to taste it.
Zhang Sixi saw a few unsophisticated women next door chatting happily, and he secretly despised them in his heart, until he heard Lin Xia's name. After hearing the rest of the name, he remembered that Lin Xia had a lot of bags yesterday, which were bulging, and he became interested.
She was originally worried that she might not be successful today, until she saw Lin Xia running towards the pork stall early in the morning, and she knew that the opportunity had come.
Thinking that her husband's biggest competitor was about to be gone, Zhang Sixi seemed to have seen Lin Xia's family being investigated, and she was about to become the team leader's wife.
Lu Yuxiu led his people towards home, his face expressionless as usual, but he was wondering in his heart who it was, was it coming for Lin Xia, or was it coming for him.
How long has Lin Xia been here? Lu Yuxiu didn't believe that she had offended anyone. She was too lazy to go out, so it was impossible for her to make enemies with anyone.
After thinking about it, he suddenly understood that it seemed that this person was coming for him.
Thinking back to the news that the deputy group leader was going to be promoted, Lu Yuxiu immediately understood what was going on.
Lin Xia had just finished cooking and was washing hands with the little one, waiting for Lu Yuxiu to come back before starting to eat.
As soon as I took the little one out, I saw several people standing at home, wearing blue or green clothes, but the most eye-catching thing was the red sleeves on their arms.
"What is this...?" Lin Xia's heart trembled, but she did not look panicked at all. She asked with a slightly puzzled look on her face.
When the little guy saw several uncles coming to the house, he felt that they were very different from the ones he had seen before. He hugged Lin Xia's legs nervously and hid his little body backwards.
"It's okay, a few comrades, come to my house to take a look." Lu Yuxiu's tone was gentle, and his expression was normal and natural.
Seeing Lu Yuxiu's gentle tone, Lin Xia felt relieved, and smiled slightly, saying softly, "Would you like to stay for dinner?"
As soon as they came in
Several people frowned. As soon as they entered the house, they found that the outside was no different from other houses, but the bright white walls inside showed that it was newly renovated. There were not many things in the house, just a cabinet, a square table and four stools, which looked okay.
I could just smell the strong aroma of food coming from my nose, and the taste was no worse than that of a state-owned restaurant. It was just as what was said in the report, the food was luxurious and very likely belonged to the capitalist class.
They had already determined in their hearts that the report letter was probably correct, but because Captain Lu was at the battalion level after all, they could not be so direct.
Now that he heard this, his expression became even uglier. Was she trying to bribe them with capital?
Lin Xia looked at their faces and saw that they changed expression. She didn't know what happened. Actually, she was just being polite. If she really invited them to dinner, there probably wouldn't be enough for dinner.
Lu Yuxiu had already seen the dishes on the table. When he heard his wife's words, a smile flashed across his eyes. He said calmly, "There are only two simple dishes. Would you like to eat some together?"
The leader's face darkened when he heard this. He stepped forward and pointed at the table, about to retort, "This is called..."
When I saw two bowls on the table, my eyes widened. There were indeed only two dishes, but they didn't look simple at all.
There were red carrots and yellow corns in a pot of soup, which looked very nice. However, there were only bones in the soup, without a trace of meat. I was afraid I would be embarrassed to ask for a ticket if I wanted to buy it.
There is actually meat in it, but the bones have been stewed for too long, and the little meat hanging on the edges of the bones has long since fallen off the bones.
The other dish looked rich, but there was no meat. It was full of free and cheap seafood, crabs, shrimps and other things that were hard to tell what they were, but they were so tender and white that they looked like flowers.
I can't continue with the following words.
The other people came forward and saw the food. The only luxurious thing was the white rice, but it was mixed with sweet potatoes and didn't look very good. It was definitely not capital.
Several people looked at each other, some of them couldn't believe it. Could it be that someone had tipped them off in advance?
But in order to prevent the information from being leaked, they first found Lu Yuxiu's leader, hoping to get evidence in person and catch him off guard, but now it seems that they failed to catch him.
Were they tricked? Was the report a prank?
