We both dreamed about it!
Meng Fuyan was amused by this explanation; this second son of the Li family was truly interesting.
Meng Fuyan looked at her friends, then at the little guy in front of her, and laughed, "Since you've made it this far, let's go together. Come on, I'll treat you to a meal, and I'll treat you to some pig's trotters."
The little guy's eyes lit up. Wow, there really is pig's trotter to gnaw on!
So, the pretty lady just coaxed him into giving her treats?
He couldn't help but glance at Meng Yunji with envy. With a sister like that, she must be able to eat pig's trotters every day.
Meng Yunji caught his friends' attention, pulled his clothes up in a very aloof manner, and stood there with a slightly smug look on his face.
Meng Fuyan called to Li Hongnian, "I'm treating my friends to dinner today, why don't you all come along? It'll be a good opportunity for everyone to get to know each other."
Young people can easily get along. Meng Fuyan invited everyone to dinner, and it was a reservation made in advance. Her mother used to make many friends and often treated people to meals. In such cases, state-run restaurants would never be empty, so Meng Fuyan made a reservation in advance to save the best dishes for today and make sure her friends had a good meal.
The private room on the second floor was reserved. A large pot of pork and cabbage stew with vermicelli was served, along with a bluefish weighing about 20 pounds, prepared in three different ways. There were no pig's trotters, but there was a large pork hock. There was also a large goose, which Meng Fuyan had brought herself and had the kitchen prepare.
Finally, there's wild boar meat. She got this when she was in Northeast China and has been keeping it in her spatial storage. Now it's a good time to bring it out for everyone to try.
Meat dishes are also very scarce in state-run restaurants. Basically, whenever some good dishes are available, people with connections will hear about it in advance and come to make reservations. Meng Fuyan managed to reserve pork, bluefish, and braised pork hock by asking a friend.
People always have to save some of their good stuff to appease other leaders, so Meng Fuyan ended up adding dishes for herself. She even gave two dried rabbits to her friend at a low price. There was no other way; relationships had to be maintained!
Whether he eats it himself or gives it as a gift is not her concern.
The wild boar meat was braised with some side dishes, and the whole thing was served in a big bowl—enough to satisfy everyone.
The restaurant's chef is very skilled. Apart from not being as tender as home-raised pork, it had no fishy smell, tasted great, and was very juicy.
The staple food is rice made by cooking cornmeal and rice together. With so many people, it would be too extravagant to eat only refined grains; whole grains are the norm.
Seeing her friends' astonished eyes, Meng Fuyan smiled and said, "We're not very old, so we don't have many rules. I didn't pay attention to the balance of meat and vegetables. All the dishes served are hearty and the portions are generous. Thank you all for your help. Let's eat."
Without a single word, they grabbed their chopsticks and started grabbing.
Meng Fuyan: "..."
It must have just been Chinese New Year, there shouldn't be such a shortage of food, right?
Hmm, very good. As long as they enjoy good food, it's fine. It seems this group of friends has a lot of potential. Just give them more good food.
She has plenty of space!
The group devoured their food. Li Hongnian was busy eating while also helping his younger siblings pick up food for him. With two younger brothers, a younger sister, and himself, he was extremely busy.
The little boy who first mentioned dreaming about Meng Fuyan is the youngest child in the Li family, only six years old this year.
Although he didn't get to eat the pig's trotters, Meng Fuyan gave him the braised pork knuckle instead.
"Next time you dream about me, you can dream that I'm bringing you chicken legs to eat, and then maybe next time your sister will treat you to chicken legs."
The little guy blinked, "You can do that too?"
"Sister, I like to gnaw on duck legs."
"Then dream that I'll bring you duck legs."
"Pfft, hahahahaha..."
Everyone burst into laughter!
The meal was a great success, with both hosts and guests enjoying themselves immensely. A large table full of dishes was devoured by the guests, leaving not a single dish uneaten.
Teenagers at this age can really eat!
This time, Meng Fuyan established a deep revolutionary bond with the four Li siblings, and Li Lao Er successfully infiltrated Meng Fuyan's circle.
After taking care of her friends, Meng Fuyan had nothing else to do. That night, Gu Tingzhi came to see her in the middle of the night. Even though the room was dimly lit, Meng Fuyan could see how tired he was and immediately felt a little sorry for him.
"You must be exhausted. Come and lie down."
Gu Tingzhi took off his coat and lay down on the bed. When he got closer, Meng Fuyan could smell the soap on him. Even though he was so tired, he had taken a shower and cleaned himself up before coming over.
As he lay down in bed, Gu Tingzhi reached out and pulled her into his arms, nuzzling her forehead.
Do you miss me?
Meng Fuyan showed him her desire with a kiss.
It's wonderful to be embraced by a girl you like. You hug her back and try to pull the clothes off her pajamas.
But Meng Fuyan let go of him, saying, "You're so tired, stop fooling around and get some sleep."
Gu Tingzhi refused, saying, "No matter how tired I am, I can still satisfy you."
Meng Fuyan's lips curled up. "You really want it?"
Gu Tingzhi nodded, "I want to!"
Meng Fuyan touched his slightly chapped lips and smiled, "Then wait for me a moment."
She got up and poured a glass of warm water, adding a lot of spiritual spring water to it, and handed it to Gu Tingzhi, saying, "Your lips are dry, you must not be drinking enough water. Drink this."
Gu Tingzhi was a little taken aback. "Drinking this means you'll keep me company?"
"Um!"
Gu Tingzhi glanced at the water in the glass. "Did you add any medicine to it? I don't need it!"
Meng Fuyan almost burst out laughing. "I know you don't need it, it's just ordinary water."
