Chapter 492 Xiao Mu has gone crazy (10K)
Of course, Mu Qingyang became the one being fed again for this meal.
Grandma cooked a lot of dishes, and everyone rushed to serve Mu Qingyang the dishes, piling her big bowl up like Arnold's head.
Yes, Mu Qingyang always used a big bowl to eat in Baishui Town.
There is a word "Zeng" engraved on the bottom of the big bowl, which was carved by my grandfather himself.
Because every household in the town holds a banquet, sometimes there are not enough bowls, so people often come to borrow them. Everyone then carves words on the bottom of their own bowls, so that it is easy to return or collect them when the time comes.
Mu Qingyang exclaimed, "Grandma, that's enough, that's enough! I can't take any more!"
Even Grandpa gave her a few pieces of beef tendon and said with a smile: "You are a little thinner than during the Chinese New Year. You need to eat more."
Mu Qingyang couldn't help but feel embarrassed. She knew that she had gained weight during the Chinese New Year, and she worked hard to lose fat after returning home.
But she couldn't bear to refuse the kindness of her elders, nor would she refuse. After all, she could eat a lot, so she might as well show off!
Zeng Wenjie ate his meal with an expressionless face, having become accustomed to being ignored.
Mu Qingyang put a large piece of pork ribs into his bowl and said, "You should eat more too, otherwise, I won't have the motivation to lose weight when I go back alone!"
Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but smile and looked at her. While this girl was enjoying her own happiness, she would also observe carefully, worried that he would be neglected, and provide emotional value at the right time.
Because she knew too well how sad it was to be left out and watch others happy.
After Zeng Wenjie finished his meal, he smiled at Sanbai and said, "Come on, San Ge, let's go out and chat for a while."
Sanbai was also full, patted his stomach and said, "Okay, Boss Zeng!"
Mu Qingyang held the bowl, with more than half of it left to eat.
"Boss Zeng, what's the matter?" When they reached a secluded place, Sanbai couldn't help but ask.
"Hey, I asked you to come and smoke a cigarette with me." Zeng Wenjie grinned, took out a cigarette box and handed him one.
Sanbai was at a loss for words, thinking something was wrong, but it turned out to be just smoking! It was really funny that such a big boss didn't dare to smoke at home.
This instantly brought back the feeling of sneaking around and smoking when he was in school.
At around nine o'clock in the evening, Zeng Wenjie asked Mu Qingyang to change into a swimsuit and go down to the river to take a bath with him.
Grandma said, "It's too late. It's dangerous to go to the river."
Zeng Wenjie said: "What's the danger? I'll watch her, nothing will happen."
Mu Qingyang also expressed his strong desire to swim in the river, and only then did he successfully reach the riverside with Zeng Wenjie.
Zeng Wenjie, who grew up by the Baishui River, already knew the river very well. He took Mu Qingyang along the river for a while and came to a secluded place. There was a deep water area here with slow water flow, which was very suitable for swimming.
As soon as I got here, I heard some movement in the water and a guy emerged from the water.
Zeng Wenjie said, "There are girls!"
"Fuck!"
The guy exclaimed and quickly shrank back.
Mu Qingyang turned his back, afraid that he might accidentally see something.
"It's Andy." Zeng Wenjie said.
"Bra, you kid didn't even tell me you were back, I didn't even know." Hu Guohua couldn't help but scold.
Zeng Wenjie saw his clothes piled on the shore, picked up his underwear and threw it over to him. Then, the guy submerged himself in the water and put on his underwear.
Zeng Wenjie grinned at Mu Qingyang and said, "The bad thing about swimming in the countryside is that you often see naked dicks."
Mu Qingyang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. What kind of words were used? It was so weird!
"How could I have known that someone would come so late at night, and a woman at that," Hu Guohua cursed.
Zeng Wenjie kicked off his slippers and went into the water, then reached out to Mu Qingyang, led her into the water, and said, "Take your time, it's deeper here."
It is very hot at this time. It is stuffy and unbearable to stay at home without wind. Jiangli is really a perfect place to escape the summer heat.
Mu Qingyang helped Zeng Wenjie walk forward a few steps. The water just reached half of their necks, and the water was not very cold. Soaking in it gave people a very comfortable feeling.
Hu Guohua said, "You've kidnapped Xiao Mu again!"
Mu Qingyang said, "I came here voluntarily, I wasn't kidnapped."
Zeng Wenjie flicked his tongue at him proudly and said, "Did you hear that? It's my own free will!"
Then he was very proud, gently touched Mu Qingyang's head, and said: "This is my girlfriend, what about yours?"
"Your mother!"
Hu Guohua rolled his eyes, drowned, and then blew bubbles wildly.
Mu Qingyang said: "Okay, let me go, I've adapted to it."
Zeng Wenjie said, "Swim for me first. The water is deep here."
Mu Qingyang agreed, then swam a circle very smoothly. His swimming posture was graceful and agile, and it was obvious that he was a good swimmer.
"Are you so good at swimming?" Hu Guohua asked.
"Growing up by the sea, how could it be bad?" Zeng Wenjie said, and then became proud again.
Hu Guohua couldn't stand his smug look, so he rushed over and splashed water on him, and the two brothers started fighting in the water.
However, Zeng Wenjie still paid close attention to Mu Qingyang at all times, preventing her from swimming too far.
Xiao Mu was also very obedient. Plus, it was dark at night, so she really didn't dare to swim far, so she just swam in circles.
"Aren't you always picking up girls? Where is your girlfriend? Where is Wang Xuelian?" Zeng Wenjie asked.
"I'll take your advice. It's just for fun. I won't take it seriously!" Hu Guohua snorted coldly.
He also discovered that Wang Xuelian, whose online name was "Don't Eat Coriander", was not an easy person to deal with. She was close to many male classmates and seemed to have a good relationship with them, but in fact, she was a little ambiguous and deliberately flirting with them.
This made Zeng Wenjie feel relieved, lest his good friend "fall in love" again and then be upset to see a dark-skinned person.
But Zeng Wenjie found it interesting when he thought about it. If this were really possible, he would go into planting, specializing in cotton and watermelon. He could make money while paying wages at the same time. Perfect!
"Your business has grown so big that my life has become difficult. From time to time, people call me to try to establish connections, wanting to work in your company or asking you to help find a job," said Hu Guohua.
"Ha, then you can act as cool as crazy as you want?" Zeng Wenjie said.
Hu Guohua cursed, "What's the point of pretending to be second-hand? If you want to pretend, just pretend to be first-hand!"
Zeng Wenjie said: "Then you should work hard and I will invest in you."
Hu Guohua lazily lay down on the water, his whole body floating up, and said, "I'm too lazy. It's so nice to be a salted fish. I just pick up girls and surf the Internet every day. When I feel tired, I go get a foot massage!"
Zeng Wenjie asked, "Are you going to live like this for the rest of your life?"
Hu Guohua thought about it and said seriously, "It's not impossible to live a life of idleness. Anyway, the money at home is enough."
Zeng Wenjie was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He didn't expect that this guy had already understood the true meaning of lying flat at such a young age!
He remembered that when the trend of lying flat became popular, it was the post-2000s generation that started entering the workplace. This generation was more sober, seeing their predecessors getting ripped off, housing prices skyrocketing, bride prices exorbitant, takeout food toxic, and salaries dreadfully low...
They just lie down and don't even work overtime when asked by their boss. They even hope to be fired. Once fired, they will go to labor arbitration. If there is favoritism, they will directly use Douyin to invest in traffic and make the company happy.
Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but feel that his pace might be a little too fast. He decided to slow down after finishing this busy year.
Before I knew it, my freshman year was over.
This is my last year of student life, and I need to have some good memories of this era with Mu Qingyang.
Mu Qingyang kept swimming back and forth, probably thinking of using this time to exercise and burn off the excess calories he had eaten today.
Zeng Wenjie and Hu Guohua sat on the shore and started smoking.
"Niubai, it's such a sin to work with you. I can't even go home during the summer vacation. We're forced into a long-distance relationship right after we started dating." Hu Guohua sighed.
"What the hell! I just want to make progress so badly. Do you think everyone can live like you, with no worries about food and clothing, and just lie down and do nothing?" Zeng Wenjie said disdainfully.
After chatting for a while, Hu Guohua received a call from home, so he left in his wet boxer shorts, carrying his clothes and preparing to find a place where no one was around to change.
Zeng Wenjie opened the shampoo bottle and rubbed his hair, then dived into the water and washed his hair clean. He felt that this was much more convenient than taking a shower.
"Is it almost time? We should go back." Zeng Wenjie said to Mu Qingyang.
"It's so hot on the shore, let's take a bath for a while." Mu Qingyang said.
She was also tired from swimming, so she and Zeng Wenjie went to the shallow water and sat down, soaking in the cool river water, listening to the cicadas and the water, and her whole mood was very good.
Mu Qingyang suddenly asked, "Grandpa Xie didn't contact me during the holiday. Did something really happen to him?"
Zeng Wenjie said, "He lives a carefree life and has gone abroad. At his age, can't he enjoy himself? Besides, he trusts me and knows that I can take care of you."
Mu Qingyang smiled and also felt that he was well taken care of by Zeng Wenjie.
I used to be in a rather depressed state, but now, I am very happy every day. Even when I am alone, I don’t have any random thoughts.
Because when I am alone, all I think about is him.
Zeng Wenjie looked at her feet splashing in the water and couldn't help saying, "They're all wrinkled. Let's go home."
Mu Qingyang also felt a little cold, so he said happily: "Okay!"
Zeng Wenjie pulled her hand and wanted to stand up together, but they had been soaking in the water for too long, their feet became weak and they lost their footing, so they fell down again, dragging Mu Qingyang into the water with them.
"You're so stupid!" Mu Qingyang couldn't help but laugh and threw himself into his arms.
Zeng Wenjie was about to say something, but he heard the smiling girl gently say, "Don't talk."
The water is cold, but my lips are warm.
On a moonlit summer night, in the cool river, Mu Qingyang gave what was probably the most passionate kiss of his life.
Her eyes were sparkling, without any shyness, only sweet happiness.
When they returned home and saw them, their elders were finally relieved.
Zeng Wenjie is used to being wild, but Mu Qingyang grew up in the city after all, so they are afraid that Zeng Wenjie can't take good care of him.
It is still quite dangerous to swim in the river at night.
Zeng Wenjie did not lock the door when he went to bed at night. When he was half asleep, the thief sneaked in.
He hugged the fragrant little thief and said with a smile, "You'll have to run back later, so why bother?"
Mu Qingyang hugged his neck tightly and hummed softly: "I just want to be with you."
"You'll have to pay for that!" Zeng Wenjie said maliciously, "You disturbed my sleep, I'm going to take revenge on you."
Mu Qingyang's fair skin is really amazing, especially after skin contact, it feels like being wrapped in that delicate and silky skin.
Around four or five in the morning, Mu Qingyang got up yawning and tiptoed back to his room to sleep.
Zeng Wenjie found it somewhat funny but also a bit helpless, because it always happened like this and he got very angry.
Grandma opened the door of the noodle shop at six o'clock and started doing business.
Zeng Xiangdong also got up early today. After eating a bowl of noodles, he drove to Fengzhou.
Zeng Wenjie went to wake up Mu Qingyang, who had been a thief last night, and washed up with her and helped her comb her hair. He felt that everything was beautiful, as if time had slowed down a little.
It turns out that being with the person you love and doing everyday things is a slow-paced life!
"Come on, let's go eat some noodles. It's been a long time since I had the noodles made by grandma! The noodles in Fengzhou are all smooth and not as delicious as these bumpy ones." After combing his hair, Mu Qingyang immediately urged hurriedly.
"The noodles made by hand are indeed more delicious than those made by machines," Zeng Wenjie said with a smile.
But he just hugged Mu Qingyang and bit him hard for about five minutes.
Mu Qingyang's face flushed red, and he looked at him strangely and asked, "What are you doing?"
Zeng Wenjie said proudly: "I've already taken you home, so I can kiss you whenever I want. I didn't do anything, I just wanted to kiss you!"
Mu Qingyang was startled. Zeng Wenjie thought she was going to be shy, but she whispered, "Do you still want to kiss me?"
"I'm satisfied." Zeng Wenjie said.
"No, you must still want it!" Mu Qingyang leaned forward with a pout.
Then, Han Yu came out from nowhere and said, "It's time for breakfast!"
She happened to see Mu Qingyang pouting and getting close to her son's face. She was stunned for a moment, then smiled, turned around and walked away as if she knew nothing.
Mu Qingyang was struck by lightning and died on the spot.
Seeing her adorable look, Zeng Wenjie burst into laughter and said, "Yes, yes, yes, I definitely want to!"
"Hmph! I knew it!" Mu Qingyang stomped his feet, lowered his head, turned around and trotted away.
Zeng Wenjie felt that the scene just now was truly wonderful.
When he arrived at the noodle shop, Mu Qingyang was already sitting at the dining table. In front of him were two bowls of noodles. The portions were generous, with fried eggs and meat added, and topped with a lethal amount of chili peppers and watercress.
Zeng Wenjie calmly went over and sat down, saying with a smile, "Eat, what are you waiting for?"
"Waiting for you." Mu Qingyang said.
After breakfast, he said hello to his grandmother and took Mu Qingyang to his grandparents' home in Xinjie to play.
My grandfather rented a garden next to the town's middle school to grow oranges, so Zeng Wenjie and Mu Qingyang went to the orange orchard to help with farm work.
However, he received several calls during this period, all about work.
It seems unlikely that you can have a few days of carefree and leisurely summer vacation.
Although there were many things waiting for him to do in Fengzhou, he decided to stay with Mu Qingyang here for a week before going back and take her to play around, touch crabs, catch loaches and so on.
Mu Qingyang also received a call from Yang Li.
"I'm in the orange orchard, come and find me!" Mu Qingyang responded readily.
Not long after, Yang Li arrived at the orange orchard and greeted Zeng Wenjie very enthusiastically.
Yang Li asked, "Xiao Mu, when did you come?"
"yesterday."
"Oh, I arrived the day before yesterday and came back early." Yang Li smiled, "I guess you should also be back in the next two days."
During the winter vacation, there were often banquets in the town. Mu Qingyang met Yang Li several times when he went to the banquets, and they became familiar with each other after a few visits.
Moreover, Mu Qingyang is obviously the boss's wife. Zeng Wenjie's business is getting bigger and bigger, so she is naturally worth pleasing.
Yang Li said to Zeng Wenjie, "Our old squad leader Zhao Qiang is organizing a class reunion in the group. Did you see it?"
Zeng Wenjie said, "Oh? I didn't notice."
Yang Li said, "Are you going to join us? Everyone is asking if you're going."
Zeng Wenjie thought about it, shook his head and said, "No, I just want to rest at home for a few days, and then go back to Fengzhou to work like a slave."
Yang Li was immediately disappointed and said, "If you don't go, the class reunion will lack soul!"
Mu Qingyang was very curious about what Zeng Wenjie's classmates were like, but since he said he didn't want to go, she naturally wouldn't force him.
Moreover, she was also very clear that Zeng Wenjie had been running around all year and was very tired. It was time for him to have a good rest and recover his spirit.
"How about this, you ask Zhao Qiang and the others, or we can just gather in Baishui Town. It would be nice to have a barbecue by the river. I'll charter a car and pick them all up." Zeng Wenjie said with a smile.
If someone else had proposed this kind of thing, they would definitely be laughed at and ridiculed, so Yang Li would never have mentioned it in the group.
But she did as Zeng Wenjie said, immediately took out her mobile phone to find the group chat, and used precious data to send a message in the group.
Yang Li looked at Zeng Wenjie hoeing the fields and felt that the real world was really magical. Such a big boss was not only his high school classmate, but he was still doing farm work!
Moreover, the fairy-like Mu Qingyang was also sweating profusely, and was very excited and happy to work with him.
"I plan to take her to the creek to catch crabs after lunch. Do you want to go?" Zeng Wenjie glanced at Yang Li and asked.
"Go ahead. I'm bored at home during the summer vacation anyway. But you can't just abandon me and not even take me to dinner." Yang Li said with a smile.
While touching the crabs, Yang Li received a call from Zhao Qiang, saying that all the classmates near Shizhu County were willing to come to Baishui Town for a gathering.
After Yang Li told Zeng Wenjie the news, he called his cousin Wu Jun in the county town and asked him to help arrange a bus.
Yang Li thought that the whole class was just making do with one person, and Yang Jingqi didn't have this kind of face before!
The process of catching crabs in the stream made Mu Qingyang feel very novel and happy, but he was not very fast when he was pinched by the crab, it was too painful!
Her fingers were pinched several times, but she didn't say anything.
Zeng Wenjie saw it but pretended not to see it. He was often pinched by crabs when he was a child.
The three of them worked together to catch a crab in a bucket, and their waists were sore from exhaustion.
Yang Li glanced at Zeng Wenjie and suddenly thought that Yang Jingqi might have been completely forgotten by him. However, think about it, with a girlfriend like Mu Qingyang, what status does Yang Jingqi have?
Moreover, the relationship between Mu Qingyang and Yang Jingqi is quite tense.
This time, Yang Li didn't find the same sense of satisfaction as when she read a sad novel. Instead, she felt a little sorry for her best friend.
"There are so many cute little crabs. They must be delicious when fried, right?" Mu Qingyang couldn't help but ask as he looked at the bucket in Zeng Wenjie's hand.
"The little crabs are so cute. You must add more dried chilies when frying them to make them fragrant!" Zeng Wenjie said with a smile.
Yang Li was at a loss for words. When did cuteness become associated with eating? What was going on with these two people?
Zeng Wenjie said: "Let's go, let's go back and have dinner at my grandparents' house today."
Yang Li said: "Okay!"
After washing and rinsing the crabs, grandma started to fry them in oil.
Mu Qingyang stood by and watched, his mouth watering with greed as he saw the cute little crabs being fried into golden color.
Zeng Wenjie was sitting next to her when he answered a phone call. Yang Li heard him say, "A single-day revenue of 150,000? That's impressive. After all, it's not selling gold, it's the catering business! Don't worry, when you raise funds, if no one else invests, I'll lead the investment. I'll give you at least 30 to 50 million..."
Yang Li was already secretly amazed by the single-day revenue of 150,000. When she heard the data reported by Zeng Wenjie later, she felt a shaky sense of unreality again.
Just at this moment, Mu Qingyang came out with a bowl of fried crabs, which had just been taken out of the pot and sprinkled with some pepper powder, chili powder and salt.
"I asked grandma to fill a bowl and save the rest for cooking." Mu Qingyang said with a smile, grabbing a crab and stuffing it into Zeng Wenjie's mouth.
The crabs in this stream are relatively small. After frying, they are eaten with the shells and meat together. They are very crispy and are loved by local drunkards as a snack.
Zeng Wenjie was chewing the crispy crab and talking to Yan Peng on the other end of the phone.
Mu Qingyang said to Yang Li, "Try it! The cute little crabs have turned into cute fried crabs. They're so delicious!"
Yang Li was stunned and couldn't help asking, "What does 'delicious' mean?"
"Oh...it's our local dialect, I just said it accidentally." Mu Qingyang explained.
Yang Li picked up a small crab and put it into his mouth. It was indeed very crispy.
Yang Li asked casually, "Where are you from?"
"Tiannan Province, I was also in the town at that time." Mu Qingyang said.
"No wonder you are so adaptable to rural life?" Yang Li said suddenly.
"No, our hometown is more modern, with factories and companies everywhere." Mu Qingyang shook his head.
Her impression of her hometown was actually very vague, and she only vaguely remembered these.
After Zeng Wenjie finished the call, he immediately came over to grab the crabs and the three of them divided the whole bowl of crabs cleanly.
Mu Qingyang was still licking his fingers with unsatisfied interest and said, "It seems that the cuter things are, the tastier they are?"
Zeng Wenjie looked at her thoughtfully and asked, "So, do you prefer steamed or fried food? Or is it better to eat sashimi directly?"
Yang Li burst out laughing immediately.
"I'm soft and fragrant, and tastes good no matter how you eat it!" Mu Qingyang hummed softly, and happily skipped back to the kitchen to put the bowl away.
The three of them sat together in the living room watching TV and waiting for dinner to be served.
Mu Qingyang happened to tune into the Chongshan Province station. The program was broadcasting the news, and on it was a picture of Zeng Wenjie wearing a suit and being interviewed at a conference.
"Well!"
Yang Li was stunned, and then he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Zeng Wenjie has almost monopolized the television in the school cafeteria. Every time it is mealtime, news related to him will be broadcast for students to eat while they are eating.
I've even returned home, but I still can't escape this disaster?
Mu Qingyang, however, was watching with great interest, and kept saying, "So handsome, so handsome! You look so handsome when you are interviewed wearing my tie clip!"
Then she said, "I wonder if this news video will be uploaded to the Internet?"
She often downloads some news videos of Zeng Wenjie from the Internet. When she finds one she likes, she will watch it over and over again. She is obsessed with it.
It's time for dinner.
The cute little crabs that the three of them had been busy catching for an entire afternoon became even cuter, and an iron bowl was filled to the brim with them.
"I feel this is the most delicious crab I have ever eaten!" Mu Qingyang praised.
She thought this kind of crab was amazing. She didn't even need to peel the shell or anything. She could just eat one in one bite. It was fragrant, spicy, crispy, and very satisfying.
Grandma smiled and said, "If you like it, eat more. Here is some soft-shelled turtle you want to eat."
The turtle is stewed with chicken and the taste is extremely delicious.
In summer, many people come to the streets to sell river fish, most of which are caught from the river.
Mu Qingyang ate the crab and soup in one mouthful, enjoying it so much.
The two old men's teeth had been in bad condition for a long time. After chewing two crabs with great effort, they stopped eating and left them for the three young people to chew.
"Well……"
Mu Qingyang suddenly paused, and quickly stuck his head into the trash can and spat.
Grandma was startled, and Zeng Wenjie laughed and said, "It must be that he ate sand."
Although these crabs had been washed and rinsed, there was inevitably some mud and sand left on them, which unfortunately happened to be eaten by Mu Qingyang.
"Tomorrow we will go to the fields to catch loaches and eels. If we are lucky, we might even catch a couple of water snakes." Zeng Wenjie said to Mu Qingyang.
When Yang Li thought of the snake's slippery appearance, his scalp suddenly went numb. He said, "Stop talking. I can't eat anymore!"
Mu Qingyang's eyes lit up and he said, "Snake meat is delicious. It can be used to make delicious soup!"
Zeng Wenjie was stunned for a moment and said, "Are you from Tiannan still eating Hu Jianren?"
Yang Li couldn't help but look at Mu Qingyang and said, "Please stop talking."
"Ah? You don't like it?" Mu Qingyang was stunned.
Yang Li got goosebumps and said, "I'm afraid of that thing. Seeing dead people makes me feel creepy."
Zeng Wenjie originally wanted to scare Mu Qingyang, but it obviously didn't work. She was not afraid and even wanted to catch her to make soup.
"Let's go catch loaches and eels tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow I'll take you to the river to catch beetles." Zeng Wenjie said.
"Can fart bugs be eaten?!" Mu Qingyang asked in surprise.
"Crunchy." Zeng Wenjie thought for a moment, then nodded slightly.
The variety of food ingredients in Chongshan is equally impressive. Every summer, some people use plastic Coke bottles to catch beetles, which can be sold for more than 100 yuan per pound.
Yang Li looked at Zeng Wenjie strangely and said, "Can you please stop doing these weird things?"
Zeng Wenjie smiled and said, "Since it's a taste of rural life, then we must let her experience it completely! I've made all the arrangements... After catching the bugs, we'll go catch grasshoppers."
Yang Li said with a chill, "You guys go by yourselves, I'm not going!"
So Zeng Wenjie took Mu Qingyang to the countryside to have fun. They caught snails, loaches and eels in the fields, but they didn't catch any water snakes, otherwise little Mu would have given them to his grandmother to make soup.
The next day, they went to the riverside to catch beetles. The weather was hot, and many beetles flew to the rocks by the river. Once caught, they would release a foul odor, which almost made Mu Qingyang faint.
The smell was very strange, greasy and went straight to the top of my head.
Then, she stuffed toilet paper into her nostrils and took two full bottles back with Zeng Wenjie.
Mu Qingyang has developed a strong immunity to these dark dishes because she discovered a pattern in Chongshan: the darker the dish, the more delicious it is.
Sure enough, after it was processed and stir-fried with chili peppers, there was no peculiar smell at all, which made her happy to eat it again. Moreover, this thing has a very high protein content and seems to be a Chinese medicinal ingredient.
Some people will get allergic reactions after eating these insects, but Mu Qingyang has eaten a lot of strange foods since he was a child, so this problem doesn't exist at all.
On the third day, he took Mu Qingyang to catch locusts. Their equipment was also a Coke bottle. After catching them, they would just stuff the locusts inside, and they would basically be unable to escape.
Grandpa saw Zeng Wenjie and Mu Qingyang coming back with some strange ingredients again. He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Can't you take girls to do something elegant? You have to go catch bugs!"
Mu Qingyang looked at Zeng Wenjie and motioned him to translate for the translator.
"She wants to taste it." Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but smile.
Grandpa smacked his lips, not knowing how to evaluate Mu Qingyang, the little foodie. He instinctively thought that girls would be very resistant to these things, but Mu Qingyang was very happy to catch them.
He brought over the Coke bottle filled with locusts and said, "Go wash them, I'll take care of them."
They had been out in the wild all day, their bodies were dirty, and their clothes were torn by the grass and trees.
Zeng Wenjie looked at the time and said to Mu Qingyang, "Why don't we go down to the river and take a bath."
Mu Qingyang said happily: "Okay! Okay! Let's go to the river to catch some crabs and water centipedes."
Grandpa was at a loss for words when he heard this. He waved his hands helplessly and took two bottles of locusts to deal with them.
Zeng Wenjie took Mu Qingyang directly to the riverside. He didn't even bother to change his clothes and went straight into the water. After playing for a while, he caught two centipedes filled with coke bottles of water by the river. Then he returned home wet to change his clothes.
Mu Qingyang said: "I know why you like drinking Coke so much, so this is it!"
Zeng Wenjie rolled his eyes at her and said, "You know nothing! Hurry up and change your clothes. You've got everything wet. Be careful or my mom will scold you later."
"Mom won't scold me, at most she'll scold you." Mu Qingyang responded with a face.
Grandpa had just finished dealing with two bottles of locusts when he saw the two men bringing back two bottles of water centipedes. He really felt like he was going to be in trouble.
He took the water centipede into the kitchen to process it. This thing was extremely crispy after frying.
I heard my grandma scolding, "Don't put it in my pot!"
Grandpa said angrily: "Xiao Mu wants to eat!"
Grandma's arrogance immediately subsided, and she said slowly, "Oh, why does she always want to eat these weird things? Okay, okay, you cook it."
My grandfather rarely cooks, but he is very good at making these strange things. After all, he used to be an alcoholic and he loves these spicy and crispy side dishes the most.
Grandpa shook his head while cooking and muttered, "Hey, the business is so big, but he still takes Xiao Mu to catch insects all day long..."
Mu Qingyang had been playing all day. When he was sitting on the sofa with Zeng Wenjie, his eyelids started drooping and he fell asleep in his arms.
Zeng Wenjie hugged Mu Qingyang and gently stroked her face. As expected, no one can't get tanned. After playing around under the scorching sun these two days, she did get a little tanned.
However, the color does not affect the feel.
Mu Qingyang couldn't remember how long it had been since she had played so wildly, and she even had some wonderful dreams.
But Zeng Wenjie didn't understand the situation and woke her up while she was having a sweet dream and asked her to eat.
Mu Qingyang rubbed his eye sockets and sighed, "I'm so tired!"
Zeng Wenjie said with a smile, "My classmates are coming to get together tomorrow. Let's have a barbecue by the river and relax."
Mu Qingyang nodded and said, "Okay."
During the meal, there was a plate of fried locusts, a plate of water centipedes, and two other plates of home-cooked dishes with a soup. This combination looked weird.
Mu Qingyang picked up a crispy water centipede and put it into his mouth, exclaiming in delight, "How delicious! Grandpa fried it so deliciously!"
Grandpa couldn't help but smile. He glanced at Zeng Wenjie and asked, "Today's dishes are so suitable for drinking. How about... a couple of drinks?"
"Okay, just two cups!" Zeng Wenjie thought about it and agreed readily.
After saying this, he was stunned.
I don't know when it started, but my grandfather actually asked for his opinion...
When he thought of this, he understood.
Grandpa is old and I have grown up.
When he went to take out the Moutai, his grandfather frowned and said, "You don't have to drink such good things!"
Zeng Wenjie smiled helplessly and said, "If you want to drink, you have to drink good wine! Home-brewed wine has a lot of impurities and is very harmful to your body."
"More, more..."
Grandpa watched Zeng Wenjie pour the wine, staring at him with wide eyes and urging him on.
Mu Qingyang couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he said coquettishly: "Please fill up Grandpa's cup!"
Grandma looked at this scene and just found it funny.
My grandfather almost never drinks alcohol now except during the holidays, and he practices martial arts regularly, so his health is much better than before.
For Xiao Mu's sake, Zeng Wenjie filled the old man's glass and drank with him.
"Once the new house is built, we will move in first and then renovate this side," said Zeng Wenjie.
"Just build one." Grandma is used to being frugal and wants to go back on her word.
After receiving Zeng Wenjie's signal, Mu Qingyang immediately started to act coquettishly, and then made his grandmother change her mind and agree.
Zeng Wenjie said: "This year it's just right to celebrate the New Year in a new house!"
Mu Qingyang said: "Yes, it feels very auspicious."
The two of them sang in unison, leaving the two old men speechless.
They also comforted themselves that their grandson has grown up now and has made a lot of money, so there is no need to save money for him to get a wife. Besides, since Xiao Mu likes her, he can just spend it!
While we were having dinner, the mayor of Baishui Town came to visit.
Grandpa invited him to the table to eat together, and then he found an opportunity to explain his purpose.
I came here just for Zeng Wenjie, hoping that he could donate some money to repair some dilapidated roads in the town.
Zeng Wenjie thought about it and agreed without any conditions. Once those bad roads were repaired, it would be much more convenient for the villagers.
The mayor was so happy that he toasted Zeng Wenjie with three glasses of wine.
This made Zeng Wenjie very suspicious, wondering if he did it on purpose!
That night, Mu Qingyang sneaked into Zeng Wenjie's room in the middle of the night as usual to commit thieves.
It’s just that I was too tired from playing these two days, and I fell asleep and didn’t wake up until four or five in the morning, and it was already dawn!
"It's over, it's already eight o'clock!" When Mu Qingyang opened his eyes and looked at the wall clock, he was stunned and felt like the sky was falling.
Zeng Wenjie was also awakened by her and couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Hey, why is this thief still in my room?"
Mu Qingyang quickly covered his mouth and cried, "I... am too tired! I accidentally overslept. What should I do?"
Zeng Wenjie thought for a moment and said, "How about you just say you wet the bed in the middle of the night and came to sleep in my room?"
“…”
Xiao Mu's eyes are already sharp enough to kill people.
Zeng Wenjie was happy and said, "I'll help you find out. Right now...my mom should be helping out with my grandparents. Grandpa might be out for a stroll and hasn't come back yet. Grandma is busy in the noodle shop."
After opening the door and looking around, Mu Qingyang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw no one.
She slipped back into her room like a thief and changed her clothes before coming out.
Just after washing up, Zeng Wenjie received a call from Yang Li, saying that his classmates had already boarded the bus in Shizhu County and were ready to set off.
Just after the call, the materials that Zeng Wenjie asked Sanbai to help prepare were delivered. He paid someone to move them to a big tree by the river, and started to busy himself with the preparations together with Mu Qingyang.
Hu Guohua was the first to arrive at the riverside and said, "Breastplate, you're so generous! You moved the class reunion here with just one sentence!"
Mu Qingyang turned her head away, covered her mouth and laughed secretly. There was nothing she could do. This nickname was too funny. Every time she heard it, she could not help it.
"Oh!" Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but sigh. This lousy nickname, is it possible that he will never get rid of it in his lifetime?
Yang Li soon arrived, and Hu Guohua asked, "Yang Jingqi isn't coming with you?"
Yang Li said, "She said she would come back later."
When he said this, he couldn't help but glance at Mu Qingyang, but saw that she was not moved at all and was still busy with the task in her hands.
After the preparations here were completed, Zeng Wenjie's high school classmates arrived.
Not only high school classmates, but even the homeroom teacher and subject teachers came together...
Hu Guohua couldn't help but give Zeng Wenjie a thumbs up and said, "I surrender!"
Zeng Wenjie had not expected such a scene, and went to meet it helplessly.
"Hey, Mr. Liu, you won't punish me for smoking now!"
As soon as Zeng Wenjie went up, he started to act playful, took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and distributed cigarettes to everyone.
When the head teacher, Lao Liu, saw his look, he smiled helplessly and shook his head. The classmates also laughed, and the atmosphere instantly became lively.
Hu Guohua watched and couldn't help smacking his lips, and said slowly: "Awesome."
