Chapter 359: Showdown, No More Pretense



After hearing this news, Li Huaicai and Xu Meng looked at Jiang Che with completely different eyes.

Admiration, respect, disbelief, all kinds of emotions gathered on his face.

"What are you two doing standing there? Come in!"

Jiang Che stood in the yard and waved at the two of them. Li Huaicai and Xu Mengcai walked in as if they had just woken up from a dream.

"Brother, you're amazing! You said you rented land in the countryside to grow vegetables."

"I never expected that I would grow selenium-rich vegetables. It's incredible."

Li Huaicai came in front of Jiang Che, raised his fist and hit Jiang Che on the shoulder, and said with a smile.

"Exactly, Jiang Che, you're such a fool! Why didn't you tell me earlier that you were growing selenium-rich vegetables?"

"Just now we were trying to persuade you to take the civil service exam. Now that I think about it, it's really embarrassing."

Xu Meng glared at Jiang Che and said angrily,

Jiang Che has such a good career, but is he still worried about not making money?

"You all know? Well, I won't pretend anymore."

"I originally wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but now I'm going to show my cards..."

"Fuck you, I told you you were fat and you're still panting?"

Li Huaicai and Xu Meng rushed up and punched Jiang Che twice before he finished his lines.

"Haha, okay, okay, stop making a fuss. I did grow the selenium-rich vegetables."

"It's just a little special. Don't make it too mythical. Try it at noon and you'll know."

Jiang Che patted Xu Meng's shoulder, then hugged Li Huaicai and said with a smile.

After Jiang Che's joke, the two of them felt much better.

Jiang Che was worried that the two would feel disappointed when they knew that they grew the selenium-rich vegetables and made so much money.

Jiang Che used this joking method to ease the emotions of the two people. He didn't want to lose the friendship between his two old classmates.

"That's a deal, I've been curious about what this selenium-rich vegetable tastes like."

Li Huaicai and Xu Meng smiled and said that he was really looking forward to the selenium-rich dishes!

Just at this moment, my mother and second aunt came out of the house.

"Son, Xiao Tang, you're back. Let me see what you bought."

Chen Xiuzhi is also very enthusiastic about having barbecue at noon today.

"Buying so much meat? Then we need to call more people over for lunch today!"

"Son, call the village chief's family and Dazhuang's family over to eat together later."

"Oh, and call your ninth grandfather, Ronghua grandmother, and little girl Shanshan over too, so we can all have some fun together."

Chen Xiuzhi opened the ingredients on the table and took a look, then started to arrange them immediately.

Jiang Che bought too much. It’s better to eat fresh meat.

"Okay, Mom. I'll go call her in a minute."

"By the way, Mom, let me introduce you to these two, Li Huaicai and Xu Meng, my high school classmates."

"I met them in the county town and invited them to my home."

Jiang Che took his mother and introduced the two to her.

"Hello, welcome to my house. Don't be shy, just treat it like your own home."

Chen Xiuzhi smiled and took Xu Meng's hand and said happily.

"Auntie, are you really Jiang Che's mother?" Xu Meng asked seriously.

Li Huaicai looked at Xu Meng nervously, wondering why he said such things in someone else's home.

Chen Xiuzhi was confused by her question. If I am not Jiang Che’s mother, then whose mother am I?

When the people in the yard heard this, they stopped what they were doing and looked at Xu Meng.

I was completely confused and didn't know why she asked that.

Just when everyone was confused, Xu Meng continued.

"Auntie, you are too young!"

"If Jiang Che hadn't told me you were his mother, I would have thought you were his sister."

"Wow, wow, you're exaggerating, my aunt is already over 40."

Xu Meng changed the subject and made Chen Xiuzhi laugh so hard that she couldn't stop.

He took Xu Meng's hand and clapped it enthusiastically, his face full of love.

After all, who doesn’t like to hear nice words?

And women's favorite words are.

You are so thin, you are so young, you are so beautiful.

In fact, Chen Xiuzhi also knew that she had changed a lot recently. Every time she walked around the village, she heard constant praise.

"I'm not exaggerating. You look about thirty at most."

Xu Meng took Chen Xiuzhi's hand and said very seriously.

This is really what Xu Meng really thinks. His mother and Jiang Che's mother are the same age, but they look like heaven and earth apart.

"My daughter is too sweet. Stop praising me. If you continue praising me, I will be lost."

"My children, just sit back and play as if you were at home. Auntie will make you something delicious at noon."

Chen Xiuzhi arranged everything for Xu Meng and the other person with a smile on her face, then went to the kitchen with a smile on her face.

These meats, seafood, etc. need to be processed and taken out and put on the clothes later.

Xu Meng ran to help Tang Tian and the others prepare the ingredients, and Jiang Che took Li Huaicai to move the beer into the refrigerator to freeze it.

Jiang Che then ran back into the room and took out the barbecue tools from the space.

They were moved into the yard one by one while everyone was busy.

Mr. Tang and the other two also came back and were a little surprised to see the busy scene in the yard.

When I asked, I found out that we were having barbecue for lunch today. I immediately became interested and washed my hands and went to help.

Later, Xu Guotao and his family also arrived. When Xu Wannian heard that they would have barbecue for lunch today, she danced with joy.

It was only then that Li Huaicai and Xu Meng realized that there were really a lot of people in Jiang Che's family!

There are several people who you can tell at a glance are not ordinary people, their temperament is so outstanding.

With so many people here, Jiang Che basically doesn't need to do anything.

So Jiang Che went to the side and called Dazhuang to see where he was.

"Hello, Dazhuang, where are you now?" Jiang Che asked while holding the phone.

"Jiang Che, I'm here with the village chief and Dazhu Ye at the police station taking statements. What's going on?"

Da Zhuang said on the phone.

"Nothing, I'm having a barbecue at noon today, come over to my house for dinner later."

"By the way, since you're in town, ask Hu Lili if she's free and ask her to come over."

Jiang Che thought about it and called Hu Lili to have dinner together.

"No problem, I'll be ready soon. I'll go ask Lily later."

Da Zhuang agreed immediately, and Jiang Che hung up the phone with a smile.

You little rascal, you call me that in a very affectionate way, but I don’t know how far the relationship between you two has developed.

Then Jiang Che ran over and called the village chief, Uncle Cheng, Uncle Dajun, and Uncle Jiu's family over.

Although everyone in the village has the surname Jiang, there are still differences in the closeness of their relationships.

These are the things that are close to me. Today, selenium-rich vegetables are on sale and I would like everyone to come and celebrate together.

As for people you don’t know well, I guess they would feel uncomfortable eating if you invited them over.

When almost everyone arrived, the yard was suddenly full of people.

There was constant laughter and cheers, just like the New Year.

The adults were scalding the meat, washing the vegetables, and processing the seafood, each doing their own job.
