Chapter 2708: Dinner at Second Sister's House
"It's better to be careful about everything. Although Uncle Pingjiang is not working in the brigade, Aunt Liu is still working in the brigade, so your family should not have too much contact with me openly, otherwise I'm afraid that the captain will make things difficult for your family because of me."
"I understand. I will tell my parents about this and ask them to be more careful about the captain."
After hearing what Liu Ermei said, Lu Xiaoxiao nodded and asked, "Second sister, when are you free to go to the county town? I'll treat you to a delicious meal."
"Next weekend, maybe. I'm afraid it won't work this week. I have classes."
"Okay, then come to my house for lunch next Saturday."
"No problem, you should prepare more delicious food."
"Don't worry, my family lacks everything except food." After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she took out a package of pastries from her bag and put it on the table.
When Liu Ermei saw Lu Xiaoxiao bringing food to her house again, she said to Lu Xiaoxiao embarrassedly: "Xiaoxiao, didn't you say you don't bring gifts when you come to my house? Why are you bringing it again?"
"This is not a gift. This is the pastry I bought in Jing City. I thought it was delicious, so I brought some for you to try."
"Don't do this again next time. You are living in a county town now and it's expensive. Even if you have a subsidy, you can't afford the extremely expensive prices in the county town, so it's better for you to save money."
"I understand. I am not as lavish with money as before."
"That's good. Please sit for a while. I'll go to the kitchen to see if the food is ready."
"good."
When Liu Ermei came to the kitchen and saw that Liu had cut the salted pig's head, she asked Liu, "Mom, when will my dad get off work?"
"I don't know, but your dad told me yesterday that he might have to work overtime recently."
"Then should we wait for Dad to come back before eating?"
"Let's not wait for your dad. Let's eat first. You can bring the dishes to the table on the kang. We can eat when the cabbage is cooked."
"Okay." After Liu Ermei finished speaking, she picked up the salted pig's head and walked towards the main room.
After Liu Ermei left, Liu took the oil shuttle out of the oil tank and rubbed it around the pot. Then she poured the chopped cabbage into the pot and fried it. After a while, the cabbage was done.
"Second sister, come and bring the dishes and chopsticks to the main room. We can eat now." Liu called to Liu Ermei.
"Okay, I'll come."
After Liu placed the last dish of stir-fried cabbage on the kang table, she said to Lu Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, there are no good dishes at home, so I can only use these dishes to entertain you. I hope you don't mind."
"Aunt Liu, how could I possibly dislike it? The dishes you made today can be used as a feast in the village. It would be ungrateful for me to dislike them."
"I'm glad you don't mind. Eat more and don't be polite. Treat this place as your own home."
"I see, but Uncle Pingjiang hasn't come back yet. Should we wait for Uncle Pingjiang to come back and have dinner together?"
"No need to wait. The food factory has to work overtime recently. We don't know when your uncle Pingjiang will be back. Let's eat first."
"good."
After lunch, Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the time and saw that it was just past twelve o'clock. She was not in a hurry to return to the county town, but planned to visit the small world in the back mountain.
Ever since she moved to the county town, she has never been to that little world in the back mountain again. She doesn't know what that little world is like now, or whether it is still the same as before she left last year.
