Chapter 280: Eat to death
All the food was moved to the roof and the charcoal in the oven was lit. Liu Nanshan and Wang Keng stood on each side, holding the skewers in their hands and started to discuss.
Everyone came over to watch, not even the three of them were left out. Gua Gua stood on Tao Huayu's shoulder, looking down, while Peng Peng and Xiao Ci stood on the fence, peering at the oven through the gaps between the crowd.
After a while, the overbearing fragrance spread out, and the two of them sniffed greedily.
"Oh my, my saliva is about to flow out." Liu Wangxue looked at the sizzling pork belly and unconsciously moved a little closer.
The oil dripped onto the charcoal and caused a fire. The flames suddenly jumped out, and she leaned back unexpectedly. Xu Qingsong, who was standing next to her, naturally reached out to support her.
"Are you scared?" Xu Qingsong asked.
"No," Liu Wangxue shook her head, "It was just too sudden."
"You got too close," Liu Nanshan glanced at her, "You look so greedy!"
"They are the same as the two at the back." Gu Xuelan pointed at Pengpeng and Xiaoci on the fence.
Everyone turned to look, and saw that the two were making the same movements, both stretching their necks, twitching their little noses, one licking its mouth, and the other sticking out its tongue.
Wang Keng laughed as he watched: "Don't worry, we have everything!"
While others were paying attention to the barbecue, Lan Xiaoxi was paying attention to the "CP sweetness". A thick layer of comments flashed through her mind. She covered her mouth tightly with one hand and pinched Yue Cheng with the other hand, fearing that she would shout out those "Aaaahs" in excitement.
Just now when she was in the kitchen downstairs, no, it started as soon as she entered the yard - if she wasn't afraid of being discovered, her eyes would have been glued to these two people - she looked at them covertly, observed with her peripheral vision, and really found a lot of candy.
For example, the eye contact between two people is so touching!
The conversation between the two was full of sweetness in their voices! The interaction between the two was tacit! As soon as he raised his hand, she knew what he needed; as soon as she extended her hand, he handed over the cut ingredients in the bowl!
Looking at Liu Nanshan and Gu Xuelan next to them, comparing the two, my God, Lan Xiaoxi felt that they had entered an "old couple" mode.
Oh my god, this is the water tower! A courtyard wall can't stop them from living together! Lan Xiaoxi really felt like she had fallen into a mountain of sugar and a sea of sugar. She didn't even need a magnifying glass, her eyes were it! Everything she saw was sugar!
At this moment, seeing the interaction between the two people opposite her, Lan Xiaoxi could only hold all the words in her throat, and her face turned red.
Yue Cheng naturally knew it, so he raised his hand and patted and stroked her back to help her calm down.
Gu Xuelan noticed this from the side. She also knew that the young couple was preparing for pregnancy. She was worried that Lan Xiaoxi might be pregnant. She felt uncomfortable when she smelled these smells, so she asked with concern: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Her question immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Informed people", such as Liu Wangxue and Tao Huaxin, looked at each other, unable to hide their surprise. Pregnant? Lan Xiaoxi still covered her mouth tightly and shook her head, accidentally holding back tears.
Gu Xuelan was frightened. She was in such a state of pain, how could she keep silent? So without saying anything, she helped the man walk away and sit down, and gave Yue Cheng a slightly condemning look.
Yue Cheng: I am innocent, okay!
Another "insider" Tao Huayu also gave him a look, "Is it that exaggerated? Control it!" Away from the sweet radiation range, Lan Xiaoxi recovered, let go of his hand and breathed deeply, but was choked by his own saliva, and coughed heartbreakingly for a while.
Several people came over quickly, some handed water, some handed tissues, all with worried and concerned faces.
Lan Xiaoxi wiped her mouth after coughing, took the cup handed to her by Liu Wangxue and drank two sips of water, her face still red: "It's okay, it's really okay."
Tao Huaxin asked her tentatively: "Have you two been able to get pregnant?"
"Is it true?" Liu Wangxue also asked.
Lan Xiaoxi shook her head: "No, maybe it's not fate yet..."
No, she suddenly realized that her period seemed to have been delayed for almost two weeks. She had been busy with both the new and old stores during this period, and she had forgotten about it. No way? No way!
She looked up at Yue Cheng: "Husband..." She was always very accurate with her dates.
Yue Cheng looked at her expression, and his mind flashed with excitement. He was also stunned: "Twelve days?"
Lan Xiaoxi nodded.
Well, I just realized it in a confused way. Gu Xuelan winked at Tao Huaxin and Liu Wangxue, and the three of them left, letting the couple digest it first.
The barbecue here was also ready. Xu Qingsong was carrying a plate over and handed it to the three of them. He looked behind him and asked, "What happened to them?"
"Nothing, eat." Gu Xuelan patted him and walked towards Liu Nanshan.
Xu Qingsong held a plate in each hand and said to Liu Wangxue and Tao Huaxin, "One side was grilled by Uncle Nanshan, and the other side was grilled by Brother Wang. Let's try and see which one is better. They want to compete with each other."
Tao Huaxin looked back and forth between the two of them, picked up two strings at random and left, saying with a smile: "Then I have to taste them carefully."
Xu Qingsong passed the plate to Liu Wangxue again: "You can definitely taste your father's cooking skills."
"Of course," Liu Wangxue still had some confidence, "I've been eating it since I was a child."
As she took a skewer, she knew at one bite that the one on the plate in her left hand was made by Liu Nanshan.
Xu Qingsong nodded, put the plate on the table, and sat down with her to eat: "It's strange, the ingredients are the same, the ingredients are the same, but the taste of the baked goods is different."
"Yes, the chefs are different." Liu Wangxue said, "I used to learn how to make mixed cold dishes from my dad. He taught me how to add seasonings, but the taste of my dishes is different from his. They are not as delicious as his."
"The fried shrimps I made," Xu Qingsong looked at her, "Do you think it's delicious?"
Liu Wangxue nodded.
Xu Qingsong went on to say: "When I first learned how to cook it, my grandfather put down his chopsticks after taking only one bite. Later, I practiced countless times before I reached this level. But in my grandfather's eyes, it was still a dish that could not be served on the table."
"Does your grandpa have a golden tongue?" Liu Wangxue put the skewers into a special plate and took two more skewers. "He's very strict."
As they were talking, Yue Cheng and Lan Xiaoxi came over. Liu Wangxue looked up at them and blinked: "Do you want to go back?"
Lan Xiaoxi shook her head: "Even if we go back now, the doctor will be off work. Let's wait until tomorrow."
She originally wanted to go back, but when she turned around and saw the two of them sticking together again, she changed her mind.
How could Yue Cheng not understand her? Anyway, it was too late to go to the hospital now. After dinner, he would go to the pharmacy on the way back. If it was true, it would not be too late to go to the hospital tomorrow.
