Chapter 776 New Year's Eve (Part 2)
In the next few days, Lu Xiaoxiao stayed at home and cooked various meals. When she was tired, she would sleep or practice. Her life was plain but fulfilling.
"Lu Xiaoxiao, open the door quickly, we are back."
Lu Xiaoxiao had just put the beef ribs into the pot to stew when she heard the sound of the monkey, so she walked into the yard to open the door.
After she opened the gate of the yard, she saw Monkey, Wood, Scorpion and Gray Cat standing at the door, each carrying a sack. She immediately stepped aside to let them in.
"Why didn't Zhang Xu come back with you?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked them after pouring a glass of water for each of Monkey and the others.
When Monkey heard what Lu Xiaoxiao said, he said, "The boss has something to do, so he will be back two days later."
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded after hearing what Monkey said, then she looked at Monkey and asked, "What's in these four sacks you brought back?"
"I don't know. The boss asked us to bring these four sacks to you."
"Okay, so are you four heading back up the mountain next?"
"Um."
"Then you guys should have lunch before going up the mountain. I made beef bone and radish soup today."
Monkey couldn't help swallowing his saliva after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said. It was not that he had never drunk radish and beef bone soup before, but that the food made by Lu Xiaoxiao was more delicious than anything he had eaten before, so he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
When the gray cat heard Lu Xiaoxiao say that she would treat them to carrot and pork ribs soup, although he did not swallow his saliva like the monkey, he also wanted to stay and drink the soup.
So the four monkeys exchanged glances and said to Lu Xiaoxiao: "Thank you for treating us to lunch."
"You're welcome. If you really feel embarrassed, just go to the yard and help me chop the wood."
"No problem, we will definitely chop it all for you before lunch." When Monkey heard Lu Xiaoxiao asking them to help chop firewood, he agreed without saying a word.
After Lu Xiaoxiao came to the kitchen, she thought that judging from the appetite of Monkey and the others, the radish and beef bone soup she cooked would definitely not be enough for them. So she took out a five-pound grass carp from the space, intending to make a pot of sauerkraut fish after the radish and beef bone soup was finished. This should be enough for Monkey and the others to eat.
Two hours later, after Lu Xiaoxiao brought the carrot and beef bone soup and pickled fish to the table in the main hall, she shouted to the monkeys in the yard, "Stop chopping wood for now. Come in and eat quickly, or it will be cold soon."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Monkey and the others immediately replied, "We'll be there soon."
"Lu Xiaoxiao, why do you cook so many dishes?" Monkey and the others asked Lu Xiaoxiao when they saw a big pot of pickled fish at the table.
When Lu Xiaoxiao heard what Monkey said, she said, "I was lucky enough to meet a fish seller when I went to the market a few days ago, so I bought several fish. Since you are here today, I will make one for you to eat."
Monkey and the others were deeply moved after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said. These days, everyone’s food is hidden from others. Lu Xiaoxiao cooked so many delicious foods for them today, which shows that Lu Xiaoxiao treats them as her own family.
Lu Xiaoxiao felt uncomfortable being stared at by the monkeys, so she said to them, "Aren't you fans?"
"Eat." The four monkeys said in unison.
"Then hurry up and use your chopsticks, and stop staring at me, or the food will get cold soon."
"Let's eat now." After the monkeys said this, they picked up their chopsticks and started eating.
When Lu Xiaoxiao saw Monkey and the others start eating, she also picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
