Liu Gang glanced around before giving an awkward smile and whispering, "I was so excited just now that I couldn't hold it back. By the way, how much can you get?"
In fact, Liu Gang just felt something was wrong when he saw Li Xu's expression at first.
You know, if someone can remain calm after hearing the news of food reduction, unless he is a fool, he must be confident, so I asked tentatively.
Unexpectedly, he guessed it right.
Li Xu smiled and said, "Uncle Liu, it depends on how much you need. I'll see if I can get it."
After hearing Li Xu's reply, Liu Gang hesitated. "Well, Xiao Xu, what are you going to exchange for this food?"
Li Xu thought for a moment and said, "Tickets, bicycle tickets, watch tickets, whatever, are fine. If there are work indicators, that's fine too."
Regarding Liu Gang's family background, Li Xu felt that these things should not be a big problem.
"Huh?" Liu Gang's eyes almost popped out. "You have so much food? Work quotas are not cheap these days."
Li Xu chuckled, "Uncle Liu, since I can say it, I can definitely take it out."
Liu Gang looked him up and down as if he were looking at a rare animal.
Li Xu was so scared that he couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Liu, what do you think?"
Liu Gang finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll discuss it with my family when I get back and see if there's anything else at home. I'll give you an answer tomorrow."
"good."
Then, for the next day, Li Xu always felt that there was something wrong with the way Liu Gang looked at him.
It makes him feel like his anus is tightening...
Fortunately, it was finally time to get off work, and Li Xu no longer had to endure that kind of look.
When they reached the gate, Li Xu quietly asked Uncle Xu, "Uncle Xu, does your family need food?"
After all, Li Xu had promised to get some food for Liu Gang, not to mention Uncle Xu, with whom he had a better relationship.
Uncle Xu glanced around when he heard this. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he replied quietly, "Can you get it?"
Li Xu nodded, "I can get some, but not much."
Uncle Xu also grinned and laughed, "Alright, I'm glad you're so kind. I have enough food at home for now. I'll come back to you when I really need it."
"Okay." Li Xu didn't say much.
The two chatted for a while before Li Xu returned home.
After all, tonight is his happy event.
When Li Xu got home, the meal was almost ready.
The dishes were nothing special, just pickles, radishes and the like, but they were quite oily.
As for the oil residue from before, it was gone. That stuff didn’t last long and was eaten up long ago.
The main food is the staple food, a large bowl of white rice, weighing about 10 pounds.
Li Xu also wanted everyone to be happy and have a good meal.
Although it was very luxurious at that time, no one else said anything.
It was Li Xu who brought back all the food.
Hu Guilan felt at ease when she thought of the food that Li Xu brought back.
When she went to collect food coupons today, she saw that everyone had sad faces.
Only she, although pretending to be sad on the surface, was not panicked at all in her heart.
Isn't this just because you have confidence in your heart?
Li Chen and Li Ju also stared at the food, their saliva almost flowing out.
There was no way, although Li Xu usually brought back a lot of food.
But Sun Xiu still instructed not to cook too much for each meal and save the rest.
If something goes wrong with Li Xu one day, everyone will not go hungry with these foods.
This was recognized by everyone in the family.
No matter what Li Xu said, there would be no shortage of food, so everyone could eat with peace of mind.
But everyone still followed Sun Xiu's instructions.
So it is rare to have a full meal like today.
Not long after, Du Ming and his family came over.
Li Jiakang also took everyone out to greet them.
Then he invited the person into the main room.
Du Ming and the others were also stunned when they saw the large bowl of rice on the table.
After a long while, Du Ming smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, are you guys not going to live your life anymore?"
Li Jiakang also laughed, "Brother Du, don't worry, we have enough food at home. Today is also a happy day, everyone should be happy and eat to their heart's content."
Yang Li was also at a loss with the bag in her hand. "Here, the food I brought..."
They didn't expect that Li Jiakang's family actually prepared rice, and so much...
So the food they brought with them could not be used.
Seeing this, Sun Xiu also gave her a chance and stepped forward to take the bag. "Sister Yang, this is the food you brought. I'll take it."
Regardless of Yang Li's reaction, Sun Xiu took the cloth bag and handed it to Hu Guilan, asking her to take it to the kitchen.
Yang Li was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses and said quickly, "Hey, this won't do. What we brought is far from enough."
Sun Xiu also smiled and said, "Sister Yang, we will be relatives in the future, so this little food is not enough. Come on, everyone, take a seat and eat first, and we'll talk after we finish eating."
After saying that, he asked everyone to take a seat.
Yang Li and the others said a few more words about giving more food, but Li Jiakang and the others just didn't respond.
Then he changed the subject and introduced the two families to each other.
Everyone also greeted each other.
Then everyone started eating.
Everyone was extremely satisfied with the meal, and they finished all the more than ten pounds of rice.
After the meal, Hu Guilan and Li Mei served tea and sugar water according to everyone's request.
Li Xu also filled a plate of candy for everyone to share.
No matter big or small, everyone peeled one and put it in their mouth to taste it.
Li Chen and Li Ju were better off. Li Xu had given them a lot of food during this period, so they performed pretty well.
As for Du Sen, he was eating one in his mouth and holding two in his hands. He originally wanted to take more, but when Du Ming glared at him, he didn't dare to.
Li Xu smiled upon seeing this and grabbed a few and put them into Du Sen's pocket. "Don't worry, eat as much as you want. If you don't have enough, there's more."
Seeing Li Xu's action, Du Ming and the others didn't say anything else.
Then everyone decided on the matter between Li Xu and the other two while eating candy and drinking tea.
Li Xu laughed like a little fool.
Du Hong blushed and was too embarrassed to speak.
In short, everyone felt that this engagement was a perfect success.
Du Ming and others also felt the sincerity of Li Jiakang and others.
Finally, when Du Ming and his family were about to go back.
Li Xu also gave all the remaining candies to Du Hong, which made everyone laugh.
Du Hong blushed and tried to refuse, but Li Xu was shameless and insisted on giving her all the candy.
In the end, Du Hong's pockets were bulging.
Sun Xiu took the cloth bag that Yang Li brought and handed it to Du Hong.
Du Hong was stunned after taking it, "Auntie, why is there still food in here?"
