Chapter 783 New Year's Eve (Part 9)
When Monkey heard Lu Xiaoxiao ask them how many chickens they brought, he immediately became excited. He looked at Lu Xiaoxiao and said, "Guess how many we brought?"
"Ten."
"No, guess again."
"twenty."
"No, guess again."
"Just tell me directly."
"We brought twenty-three chickens today, hahaha..." The monkey burst into laughter after he said the number of chickens.
Although Lu Xiaoxiao knew that Monkey and his friends would bring a lot of chickens this time, she was still shocked when she heard Monkey say twenty-three chickens.
"How do you plan to distribute so many chickens?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Monkey and the others.
"We plan to send two hot pot chickens to each of us, and then eat three of them for lunch today. The rest will be left for you."
"You don't need to leave it to me. Your boss has already bought me several chickens. Each of you can send four home. I will cook the remaining three for you to eat at noon today."
"No, we can't let you help us for free and provide so many materials. You must keep those ten chickens." Gray Cat said after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said.
"The gray cat is right, you must keep those ten chickens." The monkeys and the others echoed after hearing what the gray cat said.
"If you really want to thank me, go and chop some firewood for me."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, the monkeys looked at each other, and then they nodded at Lu Xiaoxiao.
"The tools for chopping wood are in the yard. You can go chop some wood now and then come back and you can eat."
"Okay, then let's go chop wood. Take your time, there's no rush." The gray cat said to Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Okay, got it."
After Monkey and the others left, Lu Xiaoxiao brought twenty-three chickens into the space and cut them into pieces with a cutter. Otherwise, she would have to chop them one by one with a knife, and she didn't know how long it would take.
After Lu Xiaoxiao chopped the chicken, she planned to make the hot pot chicken for lunch first, and make the rest in the afternoon, since Monkey and the others would not come to pick it up until tomorrow anyway.
An hour and a half later, when Lu Xiaoxiao finished stewing the chicken, she heard the voices of Monkey and others in the yard, so she poured the side dishes into the pot and walked towards the yard.
"How did you get so much firewood?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Monkey and the others after seeing eight large logs in the yard.
"It just so happened that some trees in a forest were crushed by the snow, so we picked up a few and carried them back."
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded after hearing what Monkey said, and then said, "Go wash your hands quickly, you can eat now."
"good."
When Monkey and the others washed their hands and sat down at the table, Lu Xiaoxiao put half of the hot pot chicken on the table with a basin, and then said, "I gave the small stove away, so there is no way to eat it hot like last time. We can only cook it in the pot and serve it out."
"It doesn't matter, as long as the taste is the same."
"Eat quickly, this is only half, there is still half in the pot."
"You eat too."
"I'll go bring the buns over."
After Lu Xiaoxiao brought the steamed buns over, she saw that Monkey and the others had not started eating, and they were obviously waiting for her, so she sat down, picked up her chopsticks, and said to Monkey and the others, "Let's eat."
An hour later, Lu Xiaoxiao sat on the kang drinking tea. Looking at the monkeys still eating, she said to them, "If you can't finish it, take it back to the mountain and continue eating. Don't eat too much."
