Chapter 1397 Follow-up
"Xiaoxiao, please stay at my house for lunch at noon." Liu Ermei said to Lu Xiaoxiao after entering the main room.
"No, I'll just go home and eat."
"Xiaoxiao, I'm not happy when you do this. Before, I agreed when you asked me to have dinner at your house. But today, I asked you to have dinner at my house but you didn't want to. Are we still good friends?"
After hearing what Liu Ermei said, Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't refuse, so she said to Liu Ermei: "Sorry to bother you this afternoon."
"Don't bother me. I'm glad you can have lunch at my house. I just went to the kitchen to steam some cured pig's head. You haven't had the cured pig's head made at my house yet. You should eat more at noon today."
"good."
"I heard the door open. It must be my mother getting off work. I'll go take a look." After saying this, Liu Ermei walked out of the house.
"Second sister, have you steamed the salted pig's head?" As soon as Liu entered the yard, she smelled the bacon, so she asked Liu Ermei.
"Yes, Xiaoxiao is having lunch at our house today, so I'll add a dish."
"Go steam another egg." When Mrs. Liu heard that Lu Xiaoxiao was going to eat at home, she immediately said to Liu Ermei.
"Okay, I'll go steam it now."
After Liu Ermei put the eggs into the pot to steam, she went to the main room and asked Lu Xiaoxiao to wash her hands, because they would be able to eat in a few minutes.
"Xiaoxiao, don't be polite, eat more." Liu saw that Lu Xiaoxiao took a piece of salted pork head and didn't take any more. She thought Lu Xiaoxiao was embarrassed to take more, so she said to Lu Xiaoxiao.
After hearing what Liu said, Lu Xiaoxiao nodded, then stretched out her chopsticks and picked up a piece of salted pork head. In fact, it was not because she was embarrassed to eat the salted pork head, but because the salted pork head was pickled too salty, as salty as salt. She could drink a bowl of porridge with one piece, so she did not pick up a second piece.
"Xiaoxiao, is the salted pork head delicious?" Liu Ermei asked Lu Xiaoxiao.
“It’s delicious and goes well with rice.”
"Then eat more."
"good."
After lunch, Lu Xiaoxiao wanted to go home, but before she could say that, she heard Liu say that someone came to steal the water pipes in the village last night, so she asked Liu: "Aunt, did they steal the water pipes?"
"No, because the captain sent someone to stand guard at the water pipe after it was installed yesterday, so the person who stole the water pipe was caught by Liu Jiaan, who was on guard last night. In the morning, the captain directly asked Liu Jiaan to send the person who stole the water pipe to the police station."
"Fortunately, the captain sent people to stand guard at the water pipe yesterday, otherwise the water pipe would have been stolen last night, and the people in the village would have to risk their lives to fetch water again today." Liu Pingjiang sighed after hearing Liu's words.
"Yeah, the captain is worthy of being the captain. He just thinks more than us."
After Lu Xiaoxiao learned about the follow-up issues of the soft water pipe, she said to Liu Pingjiang and Liu: "Uncle Pingjiang, Auntie, I'm going home. Thank you for your hospitality today."
When Liu heard that Lu Xiaoxiao was leaving, she immediately said to Liu Ermei, "Second sister, go see Xiaoxiao off."
"good."
"Second sister, don't see me off. The weather is so hot, you'd better go inside." Lu Xiaoxiao said to Liu Ermei after leaving the yard.
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Liu Ermei did not be polite to Lu Xiaoxiao. She told Lu Xiaoxiao to be careful when she returned, then closed the door and went back to the room.
