Chapter 55: Childhood sweetheart shows up



Lu Yang woke up from his dream with a flushed face. He looked at his lower body in frustration, then lay back on the bed.

"Jian Yunxi," Lu Yang wanted to stop taking the college entrance examination. He could no longer control his inner feelings. Jian Yunxi only made him more fascinated every day.

In order to fight against the devil in his heart that was about to break free, Lu Yang studied more seriously.

Jian Yunxi was also infected by Lu Yang's emotions. Thinking that she could not fall behind, she tried her best to absorb knowledge. With the help of Lu Yang, she reorganized her collection of wrong questions, and she became more and more interested in learning mathematics.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was the last day of their agreed tutoring session.

Yu Guanghui suggested that they go out for a big meal today. He had never worked so hard before.

Lina looked down on him and Yu Guanghui immediately shut his mouth.

Jian Yunxi kept smiling with her lips pursed. She was under a lot of pressure. Studying with a group of top students, she broke the record for the number of hours she studied every day.

She really needs to have a snack.

"Okay, let's go to the newly opened Northeastern iron pot stew restaurant." Jian Yunxi had seen it a long time ago, but never had the chance to go.

I don’t know if the iron pot stew at this time is authentic. Jian Yunxi feels a little greedy just thinking about it.

Lu Yang knew that Jian Yunxi loved food, so he was of course willing to accompany her to experience and try everything she wanted to eat.

The four people were shocked when they arrived at the restaurant. There was a big sign "Northeast Iron Pot Stew" written on the door and a big iron pot was placed at the door.

The courtyard walls are surrounded by red bricks, which has a retro feel. But what does the big floral cloth hanging at the door of each private room mean? The four of them stopped and didn't dare to go forward. Is this how all Northeastern iron pot stews are?

Lina swallowed her saliva and said in disbelief: "Is this really a Northeastern specialty?"

Jian Yunxi was also dumbfounded. The floral curtain was brightly colored and had a bright red peony pattern on it.

"Maybe this is the characteristic," Lu Yang said casually. He remembered his father saying that people in Northeast China are very enthusiastic and bold.

The four people plucked up the courage to walk in. An auntie came over warmly and asked them if they wanted to try the local specialty, iron pot stewed chicken. Several people nodded quickly, as they were worried about what to order.

Jian Yunxi and the others followed their aunt into the private room and smelled the scent of stew.

My aunt explained that the chickens they used were all free-range roosters, and they took a very long time to stew, so they would stew the chicken in advance before the guests arrived, and only add the side dishes after the guests arrived.

The private room was warmly decorated, with a Northeastern-style paper-cut and New Year painting hung on the wall. There was no table, but a built-up stove with a large iron pot on it, with soup bubbling in it.

Jian Yunxi took a deep breath. It smelled so good!

Lu Yang looked at Jian Yunxi and saw her expression change from confusion to surprise, and he knew that she liked this taste.

The auntie from before came in again. She put ribs, potatoes, beans and corn into the iron pot, and then brought a basin with some batter in it.

As she was pasting them, my aunt said, "This is a Northeastern specialty corn pancake. Paste it on the wall of the iron pan. It will be very fragrant when it comes out of the pan."

Yu Guanghui scratched his head and said, "Look at the four of us. Do we look like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden?"

Jian Yunxi burst into laughter, Lina also laughed so hard, and even Lu Yang laughed for the first time.

The four people waited for a while, and then the aunt came in, opened the lid of the pot and said that it was ready to eat. Several people were almost fainted by the smell.

Lu Yang took the lead in picking up a piece of pork ribs for Jian Yunxi, which made Jian Yunxi feel embarrassed. "Lu Yang, you eat it too. I'll just pick up my own."

She then picked up a piece of chicken for Lu Yang. The aunt said that the chicken was raised by their family and must taste good.

She put the ribs in her mouth again. The ribs were stewed until they were tender and tasty, and the rich flavor of the soup spread in her mouth. Jian Yunxi nodded as she ate. It was delicious!

Lina also exclaimed, "Wow, these potatoes and beans are so soft, even I, who don't like beans, love them."

Yu Guanghui heard it and put a lot of food into Lina's bowl.

The four of them enjoyed their meal and chatted while eating.

"I heard there will be a test for basic knowledge when we go back during the holidays."

Yu Guanghui placed a heavy bomb while eating.

"Yu Guanghui, are you ruining the fun? Can you please finish eating first?" Lina suddenly lost her appetite.

Jian Yunxi comforted him, "You'll know it sooner or later, so why are you afraid? We haven't been playing around these few days anyway."

Lina thought about it and returned to the battle. The corn cakes were soaked in the soup from the iron pot, with the aroma of meat mixed with the fresh aroma of corn. She ate two in one breath.

"Lu Yang, this corn tortilla is delicious, you should try some too." Jian Yunxi saw that Lu Yang was eating slowly and was afraid that he would not be full.

How could Lu Yang not be full? When he saw Jian Yunxi eating delicious food, his heart was filled with satisfaction. Every time he ate with Jian Yunxi, he would unconsciously eat a lot because the way she enjoyed food was so attractive.

After the meal, the four of them were about to go home. Lu Yang felt a little reluctant, "Jian Yunxi," he couldn't help but call her.

"Ah? Lu Yang, do you have anything else to do?"

"It's okay, see you back at school." Lu Yang's expression was so gentle that Jian Yunxi blushed unconsciously.

"Well, see you back at school."

Jian Yunxi just arrived at the door of her house and found two figures squatting at the door. She was startled and was about to shout for help, but one of them turned around and said, "Jiang Mu!"

Jian Yunxi didn't expect Jiang Mu to come back at this time. Didn't he say he would come back when school started?
