Chapter 72 072 Zhuo Jia: The competition for the top subordinate is now...
The little ones were all wet from playing. When they came back, Cao Wan was so angry when they saw her. She immediately grabbed a branch and said angrily, "Why are you all wet? Where have you been?"
Just as Ji Dong was about to open his mouth to defend himself, Yi Qi jumped in first and accused him, "Teacher Cao, they secretly went swimming in the river!"
Cao Wan: “!!!!”
Seeing Yi Qi exposing their brother, Ji Dong immediately retorted: "Then you didn't go swimming with us?"
"I didn't! I was just watching on the shore!" Yi Qi immediately denied it.
"Then why are you all wet? If you don't play in the water, will you get yourself wet? You are still quibbling!" Ji Dong said without hesitation.
snort!
Let you complain secretly!
Don't think you can stay out of it!
Seeing the two people arguing fiercely, Cao Wan's face immediately turned cold. "How could you swim alone without adult supervision? I've given you so many safety educations in the yard! What if you get swept away by the river? How could you, a child, do such a dangerous thing?"
Seeing Cao Wan's rage flaring up, Zhuo Jia quickly stepped forward and defended herself, "Teacher Cao, don't blame them. I was the one who secretly took them fishing."
As he spoke, he took out the small bucket hidden behind him. In the red bucket were a few crayfish they had caught from the river, as well as a few palm-sized fish. This was the result of their hard work for an entire afternoon!
Seeing the children about to be beaten, Tian Li quickly grabbed Cao Wan and appealed to her emotions. "Hey, it's okay, it's okay. Our Zhuo Jia grew up in the mountains. He's a great swimmer. Look how well he takes care of the children. Besides, they all came back safe and sound, didn't they? There's no need to get angry. It's normal for children to be curious about the unknown."
As Tian Li spoke, she grabbed Cao Wan tightly, fearing that Cao Wan would fly into a rage and chase the little ones around the yard with a stick. She kept winking at Zhuo Jia.
Zhuo Jia understood immediately, and he rushed into the house with his wet friends. Ji Dong, who was running last, was hit with a stick!
Ji Dong: “????”
No, why am I always the unlucky one?
As soon as the little ones returned to the room, they started fighting for the right to use the bathroom. Ji Dong relied on the fact that he was hit on the butt and was a "completely injured" victim, so he got the first right to use the bathroom. The remaining three wet little ones had to compete for the order of right to use the bathroom.
Yu Hao pursed his lips tightly and said seriously, "Old rules, rock, paper, scissors!"
"OK."
"I have no objection."
The three of them decided the order of entering the bathroom by playing rock-paper-scissors. Lu Xuan was second, Yu Hao was third, and Pei Qi was last.
Pei Qi looked at the pair of scissors he had extended in silence.
The cat is autistic.
When Zizi came out of the bathroom, everyone had cleaned up. The little guy had a white towel draped over his shoulders and was wiping his wet fur again and again, with drops of water dripping onto the ground.
Lu Xuan paused and asked, "Why don't you wipe yourself dry before coming out?"
Pei Qi shook off his wet hair and said frankly, "I did wipe it, but I just wiped it clean."
Seeing his clumsy movements, Lu Xuan simply pulled him over, pressed him on a small stool, and blew the hair dryer at him. The warm wind swept across his face, blowing the water droplets on his hair upwards.
"Ah Xuan, I can do it myself!"
Lu Xuan glanced at him and sneered, "You come alone? I'm afraid you won't be able to clean up until dawn."
Lu Xuan was not exaggerating. Pei Qi was just a lazy guy who lacked common sense. As long as he didn't pay attention, this guy would get into trouble.
Pei Maomao quietly defended himself, "I'm not that stupid!"
"Yeah, you're not that stupid. You just rolled onto my bed a few times without wiping off your wet hair while taking a shower, and used my quilt as your towel."
Pei Maomao: “…”
As he spoke, Lu Xuan deftly used a hair dryer to blow his wet hair. The warm wind gently caressed his face. Lu Xuan used his paws to fiddle with his wet hair from time to time. His meticulous look showed how serious he was.
The warm wind blew through Pei Qi's throat, causing him to purr comfortably. His little tail swung back and forth in comfort, and he looked particularly content.
"Pei Qi!"
The door opened with a click, and Zhuo Jia walked in carrying a stack of sizzling lamb skewers. "Pei Qi, I brought you something delicious!"
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Lu Xuan looking diligent and earnest, blowing his elder brother's wet hair seriously. His attentive look was truly beyond words.
When Zhuo Jia came in, he was still wondering if he was being too aggressive. It wasn't until he saw Lu Xuan working diligently that he suddenly realized it.
Compared with Lu Xuan's understanding, there is really a huge gap between him and Lu Xuan!
He hesitated for a moment before giving Brother Pei a skewer of lamb. But what about Lu Xuan? In his quest to become Brother Pei's number one henchman, while everyone else was resting in bed, he was the first to rush forward, earnestly blowing Brother Pei's hair.
Look at their ideological awareness!
Look at his reaction speed!
This comparison made Zhuo Jia feel so ashamed!
It seems that it is not easy to seize the position of number one younger brother from Brother Lu. He has so many things to learn!
Pei Qi poked his head out from behind Lu Xuan and asked curiously, "Zhuo Jia, what delicious food did you bring?"
Zhuo Jia smiled shyly at him. "These are the lamb skewers that grandma just grilled for the guests downstairs. I secretly grabbed a few when I passed by the kitchen. My grandma's lamb skewers are so delicious. Pei Qi, come and try some!"
Hearing this, Pei Qi stretched his neck forward and sniffed, "It smells really good!"
Ji Dong, who was lying on the bed, immediately somersaulted. He complained unhappily, "Zhuo Jia, you're so biased. You only think of Pei Qi!"
Zhuo Jia: “!!!!”
Isn't that right? Pei Qi is his elder brother!
Isn't it natural for a younger brother to respect his elder brother?
Pei Qi immediately picked up a skewer of lamb and started eating it in big mouthfuls. The lamb was roasted until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The cooking wine marinating just got rid of the fishy smell of the lamb itself. With a little pepper and white sesame seeds, the taste was absolutely amazing!
The most important thing is to sprinkle the ingredients just right. Sprinkle them when the lamb is roasting and sizzling with oil. The ingredients are roasted through the lamb's own fat, so that the "spices" are firmly adsorbed on the lamb, giving it a unique flavor.
After taking a bite, the little greedy cat's eyes lit up immediately, "Delicious! I've never eaten such delicious lamb skewers!"
Hearing Pei Qi's praise, Zhuo Jia couldn't help but puff out her chest. Isn't that right? Those are the lamb skewers grilled by grandma. Grandma's cooking skills are the best in the world!
Hearing this, Ji Dong immediately rushed over and stuffed the mutton skewers into his mouth like a reincarnated hungry ghost, "Delicious!"
#Who can resist the temptation of lamb skewers! #
#It smells really good! #
The mutton skewers that Zhuo Jia had just brought over were eaten up in less than two minutes. Ji Dong licked his lips, savoring the taste of the mutton skewers. He almost snatched the plate and licked it all over.
Seeing that they liked it, Zhuo Jia was so happy.
The first step to becoming the number one little brother is to make the big brother recognize and like you!
Although he is not as good as Brother Lu in terms of ideological awareness and how to take advantage of opportunities, as long as he persists and works hard, he will definitely become Brother Pei's number one little brother!
As soon as Zhuo Jia left, Yu Hao followed curiously, asking, "Pei Qi, does she like you? Otherwise, why is she so enthusiastic about you? As soon as she came in, her eyes were glued to you. We're almost being treated like air by her!"
Ji Dong, who was shocked by the news, said: "!!!!"
Pei Qi: "..."
Yu Hao crossed his arms, unable to hide the envy in his eyes, "You are so lucky, you are liked by such a cute girl right after you arrived."
Hearing this, Ji Dong nodded his head vigorously, "That's right, Yi Qi and Zhuo Jia are simply incomparable. Yi Qi is like a Hedong Lion, following Teacher Cao around all day and complaining about her, and even deducting our dormitory points from time to time! Unlike Zhuo Jia, she speaks softly and brings us delicious food from time to time. I approve of this marriage!"
Lu Xuan: “…”
He suddenly asked, "Do you approve of this marriage, or do you approve of Zhuo Jia bringing food to Pei Qi all day long?"
Ji Dong pursed his lips at him and said, "Ah Xuan, you're just too picky. People gave Pei Qi food, so we should help him share it. Isn't that a very reasonable thing to do? We are all brothers, so we should share happiness and hardships together!"
Lu Xuan: “…”
fart!
You are obviously greedy!
Yu Hao couldn't help but touch his chin. "But, I thought girls liked quiet guys like Lu Xuan. I didn't expect you, Pei Qi, to be quite popular!"
The iceberg academic master who is kept thousands of miles away exudes an aloof air. However, the colder and more distant he is, the more he can arouse others' curiosity.
Pei Qi is the exact opposite of Lu Xuan. He is more lively and approachable. Who can resist this enthusiastic little sun?
Lu Xuan: “…”
Lu Xuan said coldly, "Pei Qi, falling in love affects your studies. I advise you to give up on it. Otherwise, you will have to take care of yourself in the next final exam!"
Pei Qi: "..."
threaten!
This is a naked threat!
On the other side, Zhuo Jia had most of his body stuck into the refrigerator, wishing he could take out all the good things in the refrigerator and pack them up to give to his eldest brother.
Seeing Zhuo Jia's attentiveness, Tian Li nudged her husband beside her and grumbled in a low voice, "Fortunately, Zhuo Jia is not a girl."
"How do you say that?"
Tian Li's face was filled with grief. "Otherwise, when he gets married and returns to his parents' home, he'll want to pack up all the valuables in the house and take them away! He'll be rummaging through them for ages!"
"puff."
Zhuo Wei smiled and patted his wife's shoulder. "This is his first time making friends, so it's inevitable that he's excited."
However, they completely underestimated the extent of Zhuo Jia's enthusiasm.
Zhuo Jia: Arrangements for running away from home or something like that!
#Grandpa and grandma, I want to sail with my big brother! #
