There are a few people behind him, it's amazing...
But everyone had a smile on their face. No one would hit a smiling person, as they are also guests.
The courtyard was already filled with the aroma of food, which they could smell even from outside.
Lu Shiyan was not worried that they would eat too much and waste money, but he felt that Xu Zhiyi would be too busy to take care of the meals for so many people.
Soon the problem arose again. There were not enough bowls at home, so those who lived closer went back home to get bowls.
I was busy for a while before I sat down. Fortunately, only a few of my sisters-in-law came, otherwise the yard would have been filled with the noise of children.
Gu Yan looked at the dishes on the table: crispy fish, pickled fish, fried peanuts, cold-mixed pig ears, braised pig's trotters, hot and sour shredded potatoes, braised eggplant cubes, and braised beans with potatoes...
He swallowed again. It smelled so good. Not only was he swallowing his saliva, but everyone around him also swallowed his saliva.
In order to hide his embarrassment, he started pouring wine into the glass and swallowing his saliva along with the wine so that it wouldn't be so embarrassing.
Everyone at the table began to praise Lu Shiyan for being lucky enough to marry a wife who was such a good cook.
There was a glint in Lu Shiyan's eyes, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
Finally, Xu Zhiyi poured some beaten eggs into the pot, added some balsamic vinegar, and took it out of the pot.
I originally wanted to drink the soup last, but now I’d better drink it in advance. It can give everyone a base so that there won’t be too little food to eat later.
The men sat at two large tables, and the women and their children sat at one table.
After everyone finished praising, the last dish was served and we started to eat. What everyone had just said was so lively, now everyone started to eat voraciously, not even drinking the wine.
For a moment the only sound was swallowing.
In this situation, people can't help but whet their appetite and eat happily.
Seeing that there were four or five children coming, Xu Zhiyi went into the kitchen, cut the apples into crescent shapes, and let them eat them themselves.
The children's eyes lit up when they saw the apples. You know, although they were all from the military region, not all of them could afford to eat these fresh apples. They all rushed forward to grab the apples, and the sisters-in-law quickly stopped them, thinking they were embarrassing.
It’s impossible to control a greedy child. Goudan also came today, and he felt a little embarrassed when he saw the beautiful aunt.
"Pretty aunt, the food you cook smells so good, ah, no, pretty sister."
He still remembered the last time Xu Zhiyi asked her to call him sister.
He was immediately stopped by Goudan's mother, "Calling her aunt or sister is inappropriate. There's a generation gap."
Xu Zhiyi looked at him with a smile, "Then you should eat more."
Goudan nodded vigorously.
Several children ordered the adults to pick up what they wanted to eat. They all had mouths full of oil and were happily sucking on the meat bones.
The man ate half his fill before starting to chat. "Lao Lu, your dishes are all so delicious. They're amazing. Not only are the meat dishes so delicious, but the vegetarian dishes are also so delicious."
"Yeah, yeah, I really should let my guy come and learn from you."
"Really? Just this smell. The whole compound is drooling today."
"That's right. Luckily I came today. If Old Ding hadn't said that your family cooked too much and couldn't finish it, I wouldn't have dared to come."
Old Ding's ears turned red as he listened nearby. Oh my god, what did his wife say outside? Last time she asked him to buy fish for her, but I didn't buy any, so she became jealous of Lu Tuan's wife?
He also couldn't figure out what was going on between women, so he raised his glass and said, "Don't listen to my wife's nonsense, let's drink, drink."
Then they raised their glasses and started drinking again. Lu Shiyan glanced at him.
No matter how delicious the food was, it couldn't resist the panic in his heart. He didn't know what Xu Zhiyi was going to say to her in the evening.
As the children ate, their eyes became big and their stomachs became small. They looked at the food with envy, but were reluctant to stop.
Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, Xu Zhiyi went in and started cooking noodles. After cooking, he scooped a spoonful of meat sauce on each bowl.
Lu Shiyan saw him come in again to help carry the bowls, "Are you tired?"
Xu Zhiyi nodded. "Can you give me a massage tonight? My whole body is sore."
Lu Shiyan almost knocked over the bowl in his hand and looked outside. His wife really dared to say anything.
Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with him. He cleared his throat and said seriously, "Don't say this kind of thing outside in the future."
Xu Zhiyi tugged at the corner of his clothes and leaned close to his ear, "Why don't you talk about it outside? Come to my room tonight and talk about it?"
Lu Shiyan only felt a tingling sensation beside his ear, and he finally understood that his wife would climb up if given a ladder, and she started by testing the waters little by little.
Now he just stopped pretending, but he couldn't break free. He looked at Xu Zhiyi with pleading eyes, hoping that she would stop talking.
Xu Zhiyi also stopped teasing him.
It was only when Xu Zhiyi left that Lu Shiyan noticed that the corners of his mouth were raised.
When they got outside, Goudan's mother teased Xu Zhiyi, "I didn't expect that Lu Tuan still cares so much about his wife. He goes in to look for her as soon as he can't see her."
Xu Zhiyi smiled. He invited them to dinner today to repay Lu Shiyan's favor.
Logically speaking, they should have come to help in advance, but they didn't come, so she couldn't be enthusiastic.
Aunt Wang next to her glanced at her and said, "Mrs. Lu, I'm really sorry for coming here today. We wanted to come over to help, but Teacher Liu called us over to discuss the children's education. We couldn't wait, so we came a little late today."
Xu Zhiyi handed them the noodles and said, "No, children's matters are always more urgent. Our old Lu also helped a lot. It's okay."
The other sisters-in-law were also a little embarrassed. What they did was not right, and they didn't know what kind of hatred or grudge they had between the two of them.
We have to argue.
Xu Zhiyi also didn't understand. She suddenly developed a pink eye disease out of nowhere. Damn, everyone wanted to snatch her away from her as an elementary school teacher.
Fortunately, everyone enjoyed the meal very much. At the end of the meal, everyone spontaneously started to clean up the dishes, tables, chairs and benches. When leaving, they also left behind the vegetables they brought with them.
Finally, after everyone left, Lu Shiyan walked up to her and said, "Thank you, you've worked hard today."
There are indeed a lot of dishes today, and you can see that it took a lot of effort.
Xu Zhiyi slumped down and leaned against him, "You know I'm tired, so boil some water for me to take a bath and relieve my fatigue."
Lu Shiyan felt that the side of his body that was close to her was going numb, so he supported her with his hand and said, "Stand still, I'll go boil some water."
After saying that, he was about to go into the kitchen, but was stopped by Xu Zhiyi.
"I don't want to. I'm so tired. Carry me into the bedroom first."
