After listening to Miaomiao's explanation, Su Ling felt a little comforted.
Unfortunately not many.
Looking around, she was the only single one. She couldn't help but said depressedly, "You guys are all so fast, it makes me so stressed. I'm several years older than Miaomiao, and I'm the only one single among so many of us."
Xiao Zhao, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up at the right time, "And me."
Originally, Xiao Zhao came out to help ease the embarrassment.
Unexpectedly, these made Su Ling even more embarrassed and her face turned red on the spot.
When the others saw this, they all smiled.
Zhou Zhengting coughed lightly, "Xiao Zhao should really hurry up."
After that, everyone sat down and started eating.
As we were talking we ended up talking about movies.
Hu Changying suddenly said, "Do you want to go to the movies together next weekend? I heard that the city's cinema just released a movie called "Lush Mountain Romance". I heard it's really good."
Xiao Hui and Miao Miao looked at each other and nodded together, "Okay, we heard about this movie when we came from Beijing, but we never had a chance to watch it, so let's go watch it together!"
Jiang Qingyue felt a little embarrassed. It was definitely inappropriate to watch a romance movie with two children.
If she wanted to go, she would have to leave her two children at home, and she was worried.
Chenchen and An'an were eating fruit nearby. Seeing that their mother didn't say anything, they turned around and said, "Dad, take mom with you too!"
"My brother and I are going to play with my older brothers and sisters next door."
Seeing this, Zhou Zhengting advised, "It's a rare opportunity to go out, why don't you go together? And buy some things in the city."
Jiang Qingyue hummed, "Okay, let's go and take a look together."
Su Ling saw that everyone nodded after a while.
I couldn't help but pout, "I want to go see it too, you guys don't mind bringing me along as a burden, right?"
Hu Changying smiled and joked, "If you don't like it, why don't you just get someone to go with you temporarily? Isn't there a ready-made one right now?"
Su Ling immediately realized that she was talking about Xiao Zhao.
She was unable to go up or down.
Although she thought Xiao Zhao was a nice guy, this was their first meeting today and they could not even be considered an ordinary friend.
It would be so weird to go to the movies together.
But I also feel it’s not a good idea to refuse in public.
Just when Su Ling was in a dilemma, Xiao Zhao spoke up first, "Captain Zhou, sister-in-law, I'd better stay and take care of Chenchen and An'an, so you can go out and play without worry."
Just when Su Ling felt that this reason was barely acceptable.
I was secretly glad that this guy was quite smart.
Then I heard An An pouting and saying, "Don't ask Uncle Zhao to watch us, we can play by ourselves."
Chenchen also said seriously, "Uncle Xiao Zhao, take Aunt Su to watch a movie together."
"Otherwise, Aunt Su, it's lonely."
As soon as the two children finished speaking, the rest of the people couldn't help laughing.
Only Su Ling and Xiao Zhao lowered their heads and twisted their fingers awkwardly.
Seeing this, Jiang Qingyue smiled and said, "Let's all go together. There are so many people anyway. We can all sit together and watch the fun. What do you think?"
Su Ling looked at her gratefully, then nodded and said, "Okay."
A few people chatted and laughed until they finished dealing with the things they brought.
Only then did we prepare to go down the mountain.
By the time we arrived at the gate of the compound, the sun had already begun to set.
As the heat faded, many vendors who had set up stalls to do business came out one after another to sell their wares.
The originally empty market area suddenly became very lively.
When the family of four saw each other, they got off the car early, planning to walk back and visit the market.
As they were walking, they suddenly heard someone calling their names, "Captain Zhou, Sister Qingyue——"
When they heard the voice, they looked and saw that it was Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu.
It wasn't even time for dinner yet, but there were already a few diners standing in front of the stall, ordering food.
The two sons are responsible for writing the menu.
Aunt Xu was busy heating up the oil in the wok.
Even Uncle Xu, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was there to help attract customers.
Zhou Zhengting and Jiang Qingyue smiled at each other, then each of them pulled a child forward.
"Uncle Xu, are you starting business so early?"
"Yeah, I was just sitting around doing nothing at home anyway, so I came here early. I didn't expect there would be so much business at this time."
After serving a few guests, Aunt Xu hurried over and said, "I saw you guys coming from a distance just now. Come on, find a place to rest first and try my cooking later."
Jiang Qingyue and Zhou Zhengting wanted to say no need to bother and go back to eat.
But Aunt Xu kept persuading me, "Just think of it as helping me get the hang of it and giving me some advice. It's only been two days, and I'm still unsure about it."
Jiang Qingyue then smiled and agreed.
Then he found the nearest table and sat down.
While a few people were waiting, a few more diners arrived.
Although Uncle Xu and his family were busy, they couldn't suppress the smiles on their faces.
Jiang Qingyue and Zhou Zhengting also felt a lot more relieved.
According to Jiang Qingyue's suggestions, many ingredients were processed in advance.
The small seafood in sauce can be served immediately once the customer orders it.
The oysters and scallops have been slowly roasted on the fire in advance. When someone orders them, they are spread with garlic and roasted for a while.
The rest of the dishes are also simple and quick dishes.
Cut and prepare the ingredients first, then stir-fry them directly in the pan which is very quick.
Not long after the family of four sat down, Aunt Xu served them several dishes according to their preferences.
Jiang Qingyue was so scared that she waved her hands repeatedly, "Aunt Xu, this is too much, we can't finish it."
Aunt Xu smiled and said, "Not much. I didn't serve much of anything. I wanted you to help me taste it."
As he spoke, he asked his son to bring a large plate of oysters and place it in front of the two of them.
Jiang Qingyue doesn’t have a big appetite, but she doesn’t like to waste food.
I had to eat as much of each as I could, and finally put down my chopsticks when I really couldn't eat any more.
"Aunt Xu, your cooking skills are absolutely amazing. It's so delicious. I'm so full."
Aunt Xu was busy, and turned back and smiled, "Seafood is soft and filling, you'll be hungry soon, so Captain Zhou should eat more."
Maybe because he doesn’t like snacks and didn’t eat much at noon, Zhou Zhengting has a good appetite at this moment.
Later, he basically solved all the remaining problems of Jiang Qingyue.
After dinner, it was already dark.
As the lights on both sides came on, more and more people went out for a walk.
Seeing more and more diners pouring in, Jiang Qingyue and Zhou Zhengting stood up and prepared to go back. "Uncle Xu, Aunt Xu, we will go back first so as not to delay your business."
Aunt Xu nodded repeatedly, "Okay, if you like it, come over often."
As the four people turned around and left, Uncle Xu suddenly saw the money on the table.
He quickly asked his son to catch up and force the food on Zhou Zhengting.
"Captain Zhou, my father said that this money must not be accepted."
Zhou Zhengting smiled helplessly, "Got it, go back quickly."
