Chapter 132 Dinner

When it was almost time, the three of them went to the Lu family's place.

Fu Manhua and her son were talking to Lu Boying in the living room, while Su Mo went to the kitchen to help Li Yue'e cook.

Liu Yuzhi was also there, helping to roll out the dumpling wrappers.

Lu Qing'an, who was originally helping to cut vegetables, saw Su Mo coming and quickly put down the kitchen knife and ran away.

Before running away, he said to Li Yue'e, "You go cut the vegetables, let Xiao Mo cook, she cooks deliciously."

Li Yue'e was so angry that she picked up the rolling pin and wanted to hit him with a hammer.

"This old man, asking him to help in the kitchen is like being tortured."

Lu Qing'an is not lazy, he likes to do other things, but he doesn't like to go into the kitchen.

"It's OK, mother, I'll help you." Su Mo said with a smile, "What do you want to cook?"

"Xiao Mo, do you think this is okay for tonight?"

"Let's stew chicken with mushroom vermicelli, stew roe deer meat with cabbage, and eat the roast duck directly, then fry an egg and make some sauerkraut pork dumplings. While stewing, add some cornmeal cakes."

"Okay, mother, it's already very rich." Even during the Chinese New Year, you may not be able to eat such a rich meal.

"Your aunt and her family have come all the way here, so you have to treat them well." Li Yue'e said with a smile.

In the countryside at this time, if the host can kill a chicken to entertain them, it means that they are very important guests.

"Chicken and mushrooms, mom has already cooked them in that pot, you cook the roe deer meat in this pot."

Su Mo nodded, Lu Qing'an had already cut all the ingredients. After lighting the fire, Su Mo fried the roe deer meat, added water and soy sauce, and stewed the cabbage.

Before Lu Qing'an had time to cut the roast duck, Su Mo took it to the fire and roasted it, and when it was hot, she used a knife to slice the duck.

It was the first time that Li Yue'e had seen this, and she was a little surprised: "Is this how the duck meat is cut?"

"Yes, this roast duck has to be sliced ​​and eaten. As for the duck skeleton, I'll take a radish and cook some duck skeleton radish soup later."

The roast duck was just for the taste, so Su Mo didn't make it as complicated as in later times, with pancakes and miscellaneous vegetables. Just eat the meat directly.

Li Yue'e was secretly surprised. Fortunately, the old man didn't have time to cut it just now, otherwise it would be a joke.

Roe deer meat is tender and doesn't need to be stewed for too long. When it's almost done, Su Mo put it in a large pot.

After cleaning the pot, she added water, put the duck skeleton in to stew, took a radish, cut it into cubes and put it in to stew the soup together. In

another pot, Li Yue'e also made corn cakes, and after serving all the dishes, she was ready to cook dumplings.

While Liu Yuzhi was cooking dumplings, Li Yue'e went out to take a look, and saw Lu Weiguo already chatting with two boys in the main room, so she called him out.

"What's wrong with your wife? When guests come, she doesn't even show up." Li Yue'e asked in a bad tone.

Lu Weiguo was also annoyed: "Mom, don't pay attention to her, let her be."

Since Zhao Jiuxiang and others went back to the brigade for criticism, Lu Guihua has never left the house again.

Lu Fubao had no one to cook for him, and he came a few times. Lu Guihua didn't say she wouldn't cook for him, but asked Lu Fubao to bring food in exchange.

Lu Fubao was not really a pushover. After all, he went to school. His grades were another matter. He was still a junior high school student. So he moved two bags of food to Lu Guihua's place. Since he didn't eat there, he would come to get it once a day and go home to eat it by himself.

Influenced by this incident, Lu Guodong didn't go to school for several days. The two brothers stayed at home together every day, and they didn't look as lively as before.

"Then you keep an eye on her and don't let her make any trouble." Li Yue'e warned.

"Mom, don't worry, she won't make any trouble." Lu Weiguo said. He saw that his wife seemed to be getting better these days.

After the dumplings were cooked, Li Yue'e quickly called them to eat.

Seeing so many dishes, Fu Manhua hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, you have worked so hard to prepare so many dishes. It seems that I will have a good meal today."

"Oh, sister, don't say that. We in the north are not as delicate as those in the south. Just make do with it."

After the afternoon conversation, the two were no longer so polite and called each other relatives.

There was a fireplace in the house, which was warm. The whole family gathered around and had a lively meal.

Lu Qing'an even took out the roe deer blood wine that he had brewed some time ago, and everyone at the table drank one or two glasses.

Lu Guihua, who was sitting next door, listened and felt extremely sad. She thought someone would come to call her over, but no one came.

After dinner, they chatted for a while, and then everyone went home to rest.

Su Mo was tired after a busy day, so she went back to boil water and took a bath, then went to sleep with Fu Manhua on the kang.

After drinking roe deer blood wine, the two women slept well. Su Yichen, a hot-blooded young man, got up and did a full set of military boxing before going to bed.

On the other side, the couple in the Lu family's eldest house were also chatting at night.

"The third brother's wife's family is really good. Her eldest cousin is only one year older than the third brother, and he is already the head of a regiment at the age of 25. Her eldest aunt is also the director of a hospital, and her eldest uncle is a division commander." Lu Xingjun sighed. "The third brother has had

good taste since he was a child. Even when he married a wife, he picked a good one at first sight."

At that time, everyone thought that the third brother was at a loss for giving up the female soldiers in the art troupe and marrying a female educated youth who went to the countryside.

Now look, he is not only capable, but also has a strong background.

With the help of Yue family, the future of the third brother will be better and better.

Liu Yuzhi was unhappy when she heard Lu Xingjun's sour tone, "What's the matter? Do you think you've lost out by marrying me?"

"How could that be." Lu Xingjun's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said, "We are just right. I just said that. I don't have the ability of the third brother, and even if there is a better one, he wouldn't look down on me."

Liu Yuzhi smiled and pinched Lu Xingjun, "It's good that you know."

"By the way, why didn't the third brother's wife's parents come? Could something have happened?" Liu Yuzhi asked in a low voice.

"It's possible. When the third son was getting married, my father also guessed so. But it shouldn't be a big deal. My uncle is very powerful. I guess it will be fine in a year or two." Lu Xingjun said.

"Her aunt gave us a piece of cloth. What do you think we should give her when she returns?"

"Just wait and see what mother gives, and then we can add some."
