Before long, Lu Guoqing and Lu Guoan arrived, accompanied by Lu Jiefang, Lu Yuanchao, and Xu Dong.
Lu Yuan reintroduced them, and another round of pleasantries ensued.
Lu Guoan wondered to himself, "When did Lu Yuan get to know so many people from the commune without me even realizing it?"
When Lu Guoqing heard the name Gao Weishan, his pupils contracted.
Upon closer inspection, the person swayed and fell onto the stool with a thud.
Lu Yuan reacted quickly and caught him. "What's wrong?"
Lu Guoqing's face turned pale. He looked at Gao Weishan, then at Lu Yuan. He moved his lips, but couldn't utter a single word.
Lu Yuan frowned and looked at Gao Weishan, "Dr. Gao, could you please take a look at my father? What's wrong with him?"
Gao Weishan nodded and was about to step forward to inspect.
Lu Guoqing waved his hand repeatedly.
"No, no need, I'm fine. It's just an old problem, I'm a little dizzy, I'll feel better after sitting down."
Seeing his resistance, Gao Weishan didn't press the matter. He only instructed Lu Yuan...
"If he still feels unwell, it's best to take your father to the health center for a check-up."
Lu Yuan nodded. "I understand, thank you."
Seeing that the two were speaking politely, Lu Guoqing breathed a sigh of relief. His complexion gradually improved.
However, he didn't want to stay for dinner.
"Ah Yuan, I feel dizzy, I'm going back now."
Lu Yuan felt that his father was acting strangely today. His father knew what dishes they were cooking.
How could I not want to eat?
Anyone would eat before they die, as long as they have a breath left.
"Let's eat first and then go back to rest."
Thinking of the pork, pheasants, and rabbits, Lu Guoqing swallowed hard but still waved his hand.
"I'm not eating anymore."
He stood up and staggered away.
Seeing him like this, Lu Yuan was a little worried, so he greeted everyone and said he would take him back.
Lu Qianjin said, "A Yuan, I'll go deliver it."
He's the host; it wouldn't be good for him to leave.
"Okay, thank you for your help, Qianjin."
As soon as Lu Guoqing left, the group of men who had helped build the house arrived in droves.
They all brought their own bowls with them.
After working for half a day, few of them were clean.
In addition, many people wore clothes patched upon patched, and held a broken bowl in their hands.
Lu Yuan felt that if they were given another stick, they would be no different from the Beggars' Sect.
Lu Yuan gestured for everyone to sit down, but he didn't see his uncle and aunt, Xu Dong's grandmother, or He Shenghua.
He hurriedly asked about the situation, but Lu Guoan and Xu Dong both said they wouldn't come.
Nowadays, no one has enough food, and the three elderly people felt embarrassed to come over because they didn't feel they had contributed much to building the house.
Lu Yuan wanted to go and invite him in person, but Xu Dong and Lu Guoan stopped him.
He had no choice but to have Wen Moxue pack some food for Xu Dong and Lu Yuanchao to run.
They even sent Lu Xiaojun to call He Shenghua. That guy had promised to come yesterday.
As soon as Lu Xiaojun left the hospital, he ran into He Shenghua, who was carrying a cloth bag.
"Sorry I'm late."
When He Shenghua saw that everyone had arrived, he realized he was late and apologized to Lu Yuan.
After returning from the commune today, I boiled water to take a bath and did laundry. After all that work, it got a bit late.
"It's alright, it's just right."
Lu Yuan arranged for him to sit at the same table as Gao Weishan and his group.
Several people from the commune, along with Lu Guoan, Lu Guoqing, and Grandpa Liu, were all at this table.
Xu Dong, Lu Yuanchao, and Lu Jiefang sat with the other men.
The three tables were just full.
As for Wen Moxue and the others who were busy in the kitchen, Lu Yuan moved the desk to the main room, where they ate.
Lu Xiaojun was also there. Without Lu Guoqing by his side, the kid ate rather recklessly.
The end result was that I ate too much.
The food today was absolutely delicious.
Pork ribs stewed with potatoes, pork stewed with vermicelli, pheasant stewed with mushrooms, and rabbit meat with chopped chili peppers.
The staple food is large, white steamed buns.
Don't be fooled by the fact that there are only four dishes; they are all main dishes with generous portions, and they are all served in large bowls.
Each person received three white steamed buns.
These steamed buns are really substantial, each one is as big as a bowl.
One person with a small appetite is enough, like Wen Moxue.
But they still gave each person three, and those who couldn't finish them could take them home.
Everyone was pleasantly surprised. Some people ate one and then stopped, and planned to take the remaining two home for their families to try.
Some people simply don't eat any of the vegetables, but save the steamed buns to take home.
Before dinner, the courtyard was noisy with the chatter of a group of old men.
The mealtime fell silent, with only the clinking of chopsticks against bowls and the smacking of lips from everyone.
It's delicious, so delicious!
It was so delicious that a group of men almost shed tears.
This was the best meal they had ever had.
It's not because there's meat in it, but because it tastes really good.
Even Gao Weishan, who has eaten many good things, praised the cook's culinary skills.
Zhong Quanyong felt that his trip was worthwhile.
Wang Fengnian had been eyeing a wild rabbit ever since he got it from Lu Yuan.
Thinking that he could use this opportunity to build a good relationship with Lu Yuan so that he could also mooch some wild game in the future, he shamelessly showed up uninvited.
It turned out to be the right decision.
Suddenly I felt like I'd wasted the last fifty or sixty years of my life, only now at this age am I finally getting to eat something delicious.
After the meal, everyone praised the cook's culinary skills.
Inside the main room, Wang Hongmei and Lu Xiaoqin were both a little embarrassed by the praise.
They each made two of the four dishes.
Today, even they themselves felt that their skills had exceeded expectations.
