Chapter 784 New Year's Eve (Ten)
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Monkey immediately said, "For this hot pot chicken, we haven't eaten since last night, so we won't be too full."
When Lu Xiaoxiao heard what Monkey said, the corners of her mouth twitched. She wondered if Monkey and the others had to fight so hard just to have a hot pot chicken. If she didn't know her own cooking skills, she would think that her hot pot chicken tasted better than that made by a Michelin-starred chef.
Half an hour later, after Monkey and his friends finished eating all the hot pot chicken and steamed buns, they wiped their mouths with satisfaction, and then consciously cleaned up the dishes and went to the kitchen to wash them.
After Monkey and the others washed the dishes, they said to Lu Xiaoxiao, "Let's go fetch some more wood. That way you'll have enough to last until next summer."
"No, these are enough."
"The boss gave us a day off today. We have nothing to do anyway, so we might as well help you carry some more firewood."
After hearing what Monkey said, Lu Xiaoxiao did not stop them, but let them take a walk. Otherwise, their stomachs would definitely not be able to bear such strenuous exercise right after eating.
Lu Xiaoxiao spent the entire afternoon in the kitchen making hotpot chicken. At five o'clock in the evening, she finally finished preparing all the hotpot chicken that Monkey and the others wanted to send back home. She put each chicken in the yard to freeze, so that it would be easier to send the chickens tomorrow.
After Lu Xiaoxiao froze the chicken, she planned to go back to the space to take a shower. She had been very busy all afternoon and she smelled of cooking fumes.
After taking a shower, Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the time and saw that it was almost time for dinner. She had been busy all afternoon and didn't plan to cook, so she took out a clay pot rice from the warehouse and started eating.
After dinner, Lu Xiaoxiao curled up on the sofa and read a book for a while. Then she went back to her room to sleep. She had to take a ox cart to the county town early the next morning, so she decided to go to bed early today.
At 6:30 the next morning, Lu Xiaoxiao was awakened by the alarm she set. She rubbed her eyes, yawned, and went to the bathroom to wash up.
After Lu Xiaoxiao washed up, she drank a bowl of millet porridge and left the space. She remembered that Monkey and the others said yesterday that they would come to get the hot pot chicken at seven o'clock this morning, so it should be about time now.
Lu Xiaoxiao walked into the yard to check on the hot pot chicken she had put in the yard yesterday. She saw that it had all been frozen into big ice cubes, so she felt relieved.
Just when Lu Xiaoxiao was about to reincarnate back into the house, she heard someone knocking on the door of the yard. She knew it must be Monkey and the others, so she walked to the gate and opened it.
After Lu Xiaoxiao opened the door, she saw that the people coming were indeed Monkey and his three companions. She stepped aside to let them enter the yard.
As soon as Monkey entered the yard, he said to Lu Xiaoxiao, "Lu Xiaoxiao, where is the hot pot chicken?"
"They are all on the table beside the courtyard wall." Lu Xiaoxiao pointed at the table beside the courtyard wall.
As soon as Monkey and his friends heard where the hot pot chicken was, they immediately ran towards it with the bags they brought.
Seeing how anxious they were, Lu Xiaoxiao said to them, "Don't be so anxious. It's not like the thing will grow legs and run away."
Monkey put the hot pot chicken into the bag and said to Lu Xiaoxiao, "We are not afraid that the things will grow legs and run away, but the boss only gave us three hours of leave. If we don't seize the time, the consequences will be disastrous."
"Do you want me to help you mail it? I also need to go to the county town soon." Lu Xiaoxiao asked them after hearing what Monkey said.
