Zhang Tiantian and Gu Ranran returned to the room and started packing up. Zhang Tiantian took out a glass bottle and put the hot pot base into it.
"Ran Ran, let's just say it was the seasoning sent by your family, okay?"
"Sure? One bottle is not enough. We should also keep one at home for our convenience."
Gu Ranran also started to put the hot pot base into the bottle. After putting the hot pot base in, Gu Ranran took out the barbecue ingredients and started putting them in.
Zhang Tiantian saw it and took out the spicy 1+1 chili powder from the space and started to pretend. Zhang Tiantian and Gu Ranran pretended and pretended until they both laughed.
"Ranran, it's not easy for the two of us to eat."
"It's a pity that we can't tell anyone about the Plane Trading System, otherwise we would have been able to enjoy a life of luxury with our families."
"Ranran, that's it. It makes us both feel like thieves. When we eat alone, we feel guilty."
Zhang Tiantian and Gu Ranran had just finished packing the chili powder when Lu Jiang and Lu Hai came back. When they came out, they saw Lu Jiang and Lu Hai directing the deliveryman to put the sewing machine into the room.
After the delivery man left, Gu Ranran looked at the stove and pot on the ground and asked, "How do we get the stove and pot back to the village?"
"Ran Ran, don't worry. My brother's yard has been rented out to Master Liu, who works with us. Let my brother borrow a bicycle and my brother and I will take it back."
After Lu Hai finished speaking, Lu Jiang went to borrow a bicycle.
"Ah Hai, has the yard been rented out? How much is it per month?"
"We rented it to Mr. Liu and his family for 2 yuan a month. Mr. Liu lives with his wife and two children, so they won't disturb us. Mr. Liu and his wife are both very easy to talk to."
"It's okay, they won't disturb us. Tiantian and I didn't even know they moved in."
"Master Liu's wife doesn't talk much either, and neither do the two girls. Their home is quite quiet."
After a while, Lu Jiang came over on a bicycle.
"Master Liu said that his family doesn't need the bicycle tomorrow, so we can just deliver it to him when we come back in the evening."
Lu Jiang and Lu Hai tied the stove and pot to the bicycle, and Zhang Tiantian rode the bicycle with Gu Ranran and returned to the village.
When they got home, the team leader and Zhang's mother hadn't finished work yet, so Zhang Tiantian and the others went into the kitchen and started cooking.
"Brother Lu Jiang, Ran Ran and I are the head chefs today, and you and Lu Hai will help out. You have to follow our instructions. Brother Lu Jiang, you go and handle the ribs and chop them into small pieces. Lu Hai, you go and take out the lean meat and cut it into small slices. Ran Ran, I'll cook, and you boil water to soak the sweet potato flour first."
After Gu Ranran boiled water to soak the sweet potato starch, she began to prepare the dipping sauce for the hot pot. While Zhang Tiantian cooked the rice, she also started to wash the other dishes.
After Lu Jiang and Lu Hai processed the meat and ribs, they continued to prepare other dishes.
"Brother Lu Jiang, go light up the charcoal in the stove. Lu Hai, go wash the small pot, we'll need it later."
Gu Ranran prepared the dipping sauce and came over to wash the vegetables with Zhang Tiantian. "Tiantian, these two are quite obedient, they work pretty well."
"Ran Ran, I want to be your assistant for the rest of my life. When we cook later, you teach me and I'll do it from now on."
"Yes, Tiantian, Gu Zhiqing. Lu Hai and I don't know how to make clothes. From now on, we can just do the cooking and housework. Don't worry about it."
"Okay, it's not difficult actually. My family sent me the secret seasoning, and I'll just instruct Lu Hai to stir-fry it."
After Lu Jiang lit the charcoal and brought it into the house, Gu Ranran began to teach Lu Hai how to stir-fry the soup base.
"Lu Hai, put oil in the pot first, then add ginger slices and peppercorns, and then add my secret seasoning, a little more. Then put the ribs in, stir-fry them, and then add water. After the ribs are stewed, add the other dishes and cook them until you can eat."
"Ranran, this secret seasoning is so delicious. Is it made by your mother?"
"Yes, my mother always stir-fries this secret seasoning in the winter, and we like to cook and eat this way in the winter."
"It should be delicious if cooked this way. It smells delicious now."
"Ahai, eat more later. Tiantian and I really like eating this way."
"Ranran, I've learned it. If you want to eat it, just tell me and I'll make it for you."
"Okay, we call this hot pot over there. When I want to eat it in the future, I'll just tell you, I want to eat hot pot."
Before Lu Hai could say anything, he was interrupted by Zhang's mother's voice.
"Ranran, you guys are back. I smelled the fragrance at the door and I knew it must be you, Tiantian, who's back. Where's Tiantian? Why can't I see her?"
"Auntie, Tiantian and Lu Jiang are washing vegetables in the kitchen."
When Zhang's mother heard Lu Jiang was there, she saw Lu Hai was also beside Gu Ranran.
"Lu Hai, I'm here too. Don't worry, just treat it as your own. I'll go to the kitchen to check on Tiantian first."
After saying that, Zhang's mother ran to the kitchen to find Zhang Tiantian. Lu Jiang and Gu Ran also went to the kitchen to carry the dishes. Zhang's mother had returned from work, which meant that the team leader would be back soon, and then they could start eating hot pot.
Zhang Tiantian and the others arranged the dishes, and when the team leader came back, they started eating.
Lu Jiang also opened a glass of Maotai and filled it up for the captain.
"Captain, have a drink and relax. You've worked hard during the autumn harvest. We won't be working tomorrow. Lu Hai and I will have a drink with you."
"Drink less and don't get drunk. It will delay things. Lu Jiang, Lu Hai, when you return to the village, come here to eat with Tiantian and Ranran. There's no place to eat when you two go home. Don't be shy, just treat this place as your own home."
