Chapter 1149: What a Quick Move
Dandan frowned and looked at Xu Xiangcao.
Lu Miao had never been here, and none of Fu Jingyou's disciples had ever seen her, so Wang Mao couldn't be blamed for recognizing the wrong person.
But Xu Xiangcao knew that she had been mistaken for someone else, but she refused to explain. Dandan thought this was inappropriate.
Xu Xiangcao's smile froze slightly, and she gritted her teeth and glared at Dandan.
Although he felt resentful in his heart, he didn't dare to show it on the surface.
Pretending nothing happened, Xu Xiangcao raised the thermos in her hand again and said with a smile:
"Brother Dandan, I'm here to bring food to Mr. Mister. Can you spare some time now? It will be cold soon."
It's ironic.
Xu Xiangcao calls Dandan, who is the same age as her, "Brother", but she orders Liu Xiaozhu, who is much older than her, around and calls him by his name.
If Liu Xiaozhu, who was waiting outside at the alley entrance, saw this scene at this moment, I wonder what he would feel...
Dandan didn't pay much attention to Xu Xiangcao's advances.
After glancing at Xu Xiangcao, Dandan turned his head to look inside the room:
"Sixth Brother."
Sparks flew everywhere as Fu Jingyou, wearing a metal protective mask, was busy welding with a crackling sound.
Dandan called out twice before he tilted his head to take a look, then quickly lowered his head and went back to his busy work.
"What's up."
"Nothing, just that family said they sent you food."
Since his wife is not at home, the person who comes to deliver food is not his wife, so Fu Jingyou doesn't care much.
Thinking that Dandan was urging him to eat first, he nodded perfunctorily:
"Okay, you guys eat first, I'll come after I finish this."
Dandan patted his head and responded, then left the house again.
Xu Xiangcao stood in the yard and could only hear a vague conversation inside, but she couldn't make out what was being said.
Dandan came out and took the thermos from her hand, and told her to go back first. She felt a little unwilling that she didn't see the person she wanted to see.
But Dandan is different from the others.
Take Chen Xiangdong for example.
Although the name "Boss Chen" is not very famous, he is considered to be a relatively active and well-known person in the Beijing-North circle.
But every time he came home, was he not smiling and cheerful?
Although Dandan is his brother, his temperament is completely different from his.
Unhappiness, dislike, cold face, unwillingness to pay attention, etc., all of them are exposed.
Maybe it was because she was used to acting arrogantly in front of Wang Xiu and the others, and when she suddenly met someone who was difficult to get along with, Xu Xiangcao really didn't dare to show off in front of Dandan.
Even though she was unwilling, Xu Xiangcao could only grit her teeth and walk away, looking back every few steps.
Xu Xiangcao walked out of the alley and got into the car. Liu Xiaozhu glanced at her, turned the steering wheel and asked:
"How is it? Has it been delivered to Brother Xiao Fu?"
Xu Xiangcao exhaled impatiently, and now she was superior again:
"Oh, don't ask, just drive your car! I'm starving."
She came out to deliver the meal, but she hadn't even eaten yet.
Xu Xiangcao frowned and kept a tense expression all the way, which made Liu Xiaozhu stunned.
Liu Xiaozhu still has a good eye.
Seeing that Xu Xiangcao looked unhappy, Liu Xiaozhu didn't bother to offend her. He drove back in silence without saying a word.
…
The hardware factory provides lunch, but there is no cafeteria in the factory.
Usually Fu Jingyou asks Dandan to go to the state-owned restaurant to buy it.
If you can buy meat patties, buy meat patties; if you can’t, buy steamed buns.
When we got back, each person shared four. It was more than enough to fill the stomach of a young man.
Fu Jingyou usually eats like this.
Besides, after finishing some welding work, it was already past midnight.
Fu Jingyou tidied up and washed his hands. When he arrived at the small table under the eaves in the yard, Dandan and the other boys had already finished eating two steamed buns.
Taking the small stool handed to him by Dandan and sitting down, Fu Jingyou took the thermos bucket under the small table and asked:
"Didn't buy any meat patties today?"
Dandan said, "I was delayed for a while, and when I got there they were sold out, so I just bought some steamed buns."
Fu Jingyou nodded and slowly unscrewed the lid of the thermos.
Several apprentices stretched their necks, wanting to see what was in the thermos.
After seeing the things clearly, the sound of swallowing saliva was immediately heard at the table:
"Wow, braised pork!"
“Smells so good!”
Fu Jingyou glanced down.
The first layer of the serving plate is filled with tempting braised pork.
I took the plate and looked inside. There were two golden fried eggs on top of the rice.
Let’s look at another thermos, the inside is much simpler.
It's just filled with refreshing zucchini and egg drop soup.
Everything is made according to the daily menu prepared by her daughter-in-law.
Fu Jingyou saw this and felt a little happier.
Times have changed. Now people pay more attention to the saying that "master" is half a father.
Especially among the apprentices he brought with him, the youngest was only fourteen years old.
A rough calculation shows that he is not much older than the other children in the family.
Fu Jingyou has a good heart and naturally wants to take care of her.
Knowing that Dandan and the others would not dare to pick up their chopsticks, he did not say much. He held the serving plate and picked up two pieces of braised pork with his chopsticks for each of them. When it was finally his turn, there were exactly two pieces of braised pork left.
He poured the braised pork into the thermos along with a little gravy, then took two big mouthfuls of rice and said,
"Eat, eat."
After all, Dandan has followed him for a long time.
Whatever he said was what it was, and Dandan remained calm.
The other young men looked at each other, and finally, as if they understood something, they all grinned and said:
“Thank you, Master!”
After saying that, they sandwiched the braised pork between steamed buns and started eating with relish.
Fu Jingyou saw this and couldn't help but soften his brows.
Let’s quickly solve the lunch problem and let Dandan and the others clean up the table for a while.
Fu Jingyou put the thermos away in the corner, and quickly returned to the workshop to continue the crackling sound of the flames.
Let’s talk about the other side.
Xu Xiangcao and Liu Xiaozhu returned to the house.
Before I could even stand firmly inside the door, Tang Mei came over and asked everyone to leave.
Liu Xiaozhu took the food and went to his room in front to eat.
Wang Xiu took Bai Chuan to play with Tuantuan in the yard by throwing a ball.
Tang Mei called Xu Xiangcao to the coffee table in the main hall to talk alone:
"Did you go to the hardware factory to deliver food?"
"Yes, auntie..."
Tang Mei said, "You're so quick! I haven't even told you who to send you off yet, and you're already there?"
Tang Mei has always been the kindest person, but now her expression suddenly turned cold and everyone could see that she was unhappy.
Xu Xiangcao saw this and couldn't help but be more cautious in her answer:
"Aunt, in the past, Wang Xiu was the one who brought meals to Little Sister Lu. Now, isn't Baichuan inseparable from Wang Xiu? I thought it wouldn't be a big deal for me to go over there. We have a car at home, so it's quick to go back and forth."
This is the logic, but the reality is not the same.
Tang Mei didn't want to think of anyone in a dirty way, but she felt a little unhappy about this matter.
She didn't say anything else, just emphasized:
"From now on, if we need to deliver food to the hardware factory, you don't have to go. Just ask Xiao Zhu to go. There's a lot of work to do at home. You should take care of the house first."
Xu Xiangcao bit her lip and lowered her head and said:
"……yes."
