Chapter 82 Leaving (I)
Zhang Xu was not angry at all when he heard Lu Xiaoxiao's words. He just thought that Lu Xiaoxiao was just throwing tantrums. As long as he recognized her as his younger sister, it would be fine.
As for the time of leaving, let's leave tomorrow. The sooner we leave, the better. After things are settled, we can come back to see Lu Xiaoxiao. Then there will be no danger and we can stay longer.
So Zhang Xu said, "I will leave tomorrow morning."
Lu Xiaoxiao was very happy to hear the satisfactory answer, so she planned to make lunch and make some chicken soup for the patient she liked for the time being, seeing that he was floating when he walked in the morning, so that he would not be unable to walk tomorrow because of his body not being able to bear it.
She went to the yard and dug out a chicken and a pound of meat that she had buried yesterday, planning to make carrot chicken soup and shredded potatoes and pork for lunch.
Zhang Xu saw the chicken and meat in Lu Xiaoxiao's hands, and thought that it must be very difficult for Lu Xiaoxiao to get the meat now that supplies are so scarce, and he certainly can't let her eat it all, so he hurriedly said: "Sister, there's no need to cook the meat, I can eat anything, you can keep the meat and eat it slowly."
After hearing what Zhang Xu said, Lu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at him and said, "You looked so light-headed this morning. I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to walk tomorrow, so I planned to make chicken soup. Who wants to cook meat for you? That's a nice thought. And this meat is from the winter hunt of the brigade. Don't make up any nonsense. If you take a good rest and heal your injury, that will be the greatest thanks to me."
After she finished speaking, she went into the kitchen to cook.
Zhang Xu felt like he had said something wrong again, otherwise why would Lu Xiaoxiao scold him again? Although Lu Xiaoxiao seemed to be fierce and not scary at all when she scolded, he still didn't want to be scolded.
He usually stays with his subordinates. They can understand what he means with just a look, a gesture or a few simple words, so he seldom speaks.
What should he do now? He wanted to talk to Lu Xiaoxiao but he didn't know how to talk so as not to offend her. He had never thought that talking less or even not talking was a problem before, but now he felt that this was a big problem. It seemed that he had to go back and ask that chatterbox subordinate how to talk so as not to make Lu Xiaoxiao hate him and like him instead.
After more than an hour, Lu Xiaoxiao finally finished the meal. Looking at the carrot chicken soup, shredded potatoes and pork, and scrambled eggs with cabbage on the table, she felt a sense of accomplishment.
She squinted her eyes and said to Zhang Xu, who was sitting on the kang, "Let's eat."
Zhang Xu glanced at the two dishes and one soup on the table, and then looked at Lu Xiaoxiao who was drinking the soup. He felt extremely distressed. He thought to himself how much hardship Lu Xiaoxiao must have endured to cook such delicious meals at such a young age. It seemed that he had to be better to Lu Xiaoxiao in the future.
After drinking the soup, Lu Xiaoxiao saw Zhang Xu looking at the dishes and then at her, and wondered if Zhang Xu disliked the food she cooked?
So she glared at Zhang Xu and said, "If you think the food I cook is not good, just turn around and don't eat."
"No, I'll eat it right away. These dishes look delicious." Regardless of why Lu Xiaoxiao thought he disliked the food, Zhang Xu said these words with a strong desire to survive.
No one was talking at the dinner table, with only the occasional clinking of cutlery, but the atmosphere seemed particularly warm and harmonious.
In the middle of the night, Zhang Xu heard a few cuckoo calls. He knew that it was his subordinates coming, so he put on his clothes and walked out of the house quietly.
Zhang Xu opened the door to the yard and saw his two subordinates squatting in the corner looking around, just like thieves. He kicked them and made them stand up.
Zhang Xu looked at the two people standing in front of him and said to him, “Take out all the money and tickets you have.”
Monkey and Wood were a little confused when they heard Zhang Xu's words, but they still obediently took out all their money and tickets.
Looking at the money and tickets in his hand, Zhang Xu frowned. He wondered why there were so few, but he still took them and turned into the house.
If Monkey and Wood knew what Zhang Xu was thinking, they would definitely beat their chests and stamp their feet. That's more than 200 yuan and dozens of kilograms of food coupons, meat coupons, and other kinds of coupons. If you think it's too little, just return it to us.
Brother Zhang Xu has a strong desire to survive. I wonder if he is good at asking for collections and votes? Today is the third update.
