Chapter 31: There are so many people over there, there must be melons! ...
The chef is very generous and is willing to use a lot of ingredients.
There was a big bowl full of twice-cooked pork, one piece stacked on top of another, each piece was shiny and greasy, and was particularly pleasing to the eye.
The green garlic leaves mixed in with chili peppers make its color and aroma very tempting.
The scrambled eggs with green peppers is quite homely. A whole round omelet is placed on a white porcelain plate with red glazed flowers on the edge, and fried on both sides until golden brown.
The green peppers are chopped into small pieces and melted into the eggs very evenly, which looks very nice.
He thanked Xiang Yao warmly, picked up the chopsticks and impatiently picked up a piece of twice-cooked pork with fat and lean meat and put it into his mouth.
The meat is slightly hot, and the rich flavor instantly washes over the entire mouth, full of flavor.
Mmm, that’s the taste!
It is salty, fragrant and mellow, fat but not greasy, with a hint of spiciness. When you take a bite, the fat explodes and the taste is very full!
It is no exaggeration to say that just this one bite brought tears to Xiang Yao's eyes. It tasted even better than the first bite of watermelon she took in the middle of the night.
Woohoo, she really wants to eat meat every day!
What a happy little girl she would be if she could eat twice-cooked pork every day!
Even though the portions of food in state-owned restaurants were quite large these days, Xiang Yao still finished all the food with one chopstick after another.
She touched her slightly bulging belly, looking very satisfied.
"Master, your cooking skills are really great!" There were no more orders at the moment, so the chef came out to rest. Xiang Yao smiled and gave him a thumbs up, "I'll come back to eat your twice-cooked pork next time!"
When the chef heard Xiang Yao's praise, a smile immediately appeared on his greasy face. He was not modest and told her to come.
After all, few people praise his craftsmanship so directly, and he feels very happy!
Xiang Yao finished his meal and did not linger for long. After drinking a bowl of water, he saw that there were still buns for sale at the window, so he took out his last few food coupons and bought six buns.
The buns were not for herself to eat, but since it was still early, she planned to go to her grandmother's house in Shiniu Brigade.
Since I last went to Shiniu Brigade, I haven’t been there again.
Today was just the right time. I bought some coarse cloth and sent it to her mother. I also took out some fruits and vegetables to cheer up the other members of the Liu family.
Give them some benefits every once in a while. The Liu family members all care about their reputation, so even if they feel uncomfortable, they should not show it too obviously.
Xiang Yao did it right away. He didn't feel like continuing to stroll around anymore and planned to go straight to Shiniu Brigade.
But to be honest, the development of this county town is just average. Apart from a textile factory which is quite lively, there is not much fun or interesting to see in other places.
She wandered around for a while and then lost her curiosity.
Even when she was walking on the road, she couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of her heart for the umpteenth time -
Can’t she have a car? She really feels bad for her legs!
He casually broke off a small branch and knocked the weeds by the roadside listlessly, feeling withered both physically and mentally.
Why not just go back today? She is tired and sleepy now and just wants to lie in bed.
But, hey...
There are so many big buns in her basket, but they can't be hidden from the sharp noses of her family. If she really has to share them with them, she will be so angry!
No, I still have to go.
It’s only a dozen kilometers, she can do it!
“Ding-ling-ling——”
The sound of a bicycle bell rang from behind, making Xiang Yao's eyes light up. He immediately stopped and turned to look back.
When Xiang Yao saw the tall and familiar figure on the bicycle, he couldn't help but doubt himself: Could it be that she really has some other skills?
For example, if you want something, it will appear in front of you in a short while.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that I actually met the good guy Nie Baichuan?
As luck would have it, he also has a bicycle!
Xiang Yao smiled very warmly, like a sunflower, with her face slightly tilted upwards, staring intently at the bicycle gradually approaching.
"Brother Chuan~"
Xiang Yao swore that before she spoke, she never thought that she would call the other person in such a sweet voice.
But Nie Baichuan was obviously pleased with the greeting. He supported himself with his feet and stopped beside her.
"What a coincidence, Brother Chuan." Xiang Yao's eyes sparkled. "Are you going back to the team?"
Nie Baichuan nodded: "Go back?"
Xiang Yao shook his head: "No, I'm going to the Shiniu Brigade. Can you give me a ride and drop me off at the fork in the road?"
Nie Baichuan didn't say yes or no, but asked, "What are you going there for?"
Xiang Yao felt that there was nothing wrong with talking about his family's affairs, so he said directly: "My mother went back to my grandmother's house in Shiniu Brigade. I thought that since I had time early today, I would go visit her."
Nie Baichuan nodded slightly: "Come up."
"Okay!" Xiang Yao received the signal and hurriedly climbed onto the back seat of the bicycle, holding the basket in one hand and tightly grasping the edge of the seat with the other.
The summer sun is scorching. Sitting on the back of a bicycle, a gentle breeze blows as I move forward.
Xiang Yao felt that all the fatigue in his body was slowly dissipating, and sleepiness came over him again.
She couldn't help but close her eyes, nodded, and nodded again. Just as she was about to fall into a drowsy sleep, she was awakened by a bump.
Continue to nod, wake up, nod...
Finally, after a short stretch of smooth road, she could no longer bear it and fell headfirst onto a solid and warm back and fell asleep.
Nie Baichuan, who was riding a bicycle in front, suddenly felt the weight on his back and couldn't help but stiffen slightly.
"Xiang Yao?"
Qingyue called out tentatively, but received no response.
Nie Baichuan hurriedly turned around and took a quick glance. Seeing that the other party was indeed asleep, he did not wake her up.
In desperation, I could only slow down the car, try to avoid the larger potholes and stones, and keep driving smoothly.
After an unknown amount of time, Xiang Yao woke up in a daze. He subconsciously raised one hand to rub his eyes, but he forgot that he was in the car and was holding the basket with the other hand. For a moment, he lost his balance.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly and grabbed the clothes of the person in front of her, thus regaining her balance.
But at the same time, Nie Baichuan was pulled by her, and his clothes were pulled back, strangling his neck.
"Let go." A voice with a hint of surprise sounded.
Xiang Yao opened his eyes slightly, and only then realized what he had done.
"Sorry..." She let go of her hand embarrassedly, grabbed the bicycle railing again, and secretly glanced at Nie Baichuan's back. Seeing that there were no sweat stains left by her, she felt relieved.
Well, that's a bit rude.
Fortunately, Nie Baichuan didn't care and continued to ride his bike easily, and as before, tried to avoid the bumpy places.
Xiang Yao was a little more awake now. He looked around casually and blinked his eyes, then he suddenly realized that something seemed wrong.
"Brother Chuan," Xiang Yao shouted, "This seems to be the road to the Shiniu Brigade..."
Nie Baichuan said calmly, "Well, since you haven't woken up yet, I had no choice but to ride this way first."
There was no displeasure in her tone, but Xiang Yao was still very embarrassed. She had been home a long time ago, but because of her sleep, she had to take a long detour.
"I'm sorry," she pursed her lips and said, "Brother Chuan, just put me down here. It's not far. I can walk there by myself."
Nie Baichuan didn't stop: "Since we've come this far, I'll just see you off to the west."
Xiang Yao couldn't help but laugh. It was really hard to imagine that someone like Nie Baichuan could say something humorous.
But on second thought, this guy can act so cool in front of the people in the team, so this kind of appearance doesn't seem to be a big deal.
"Okay," she said, looking at the surrounding mountains and fields, her mood brightening. "Then I'll have to trouble you to escort this Buddha statue of mine to the Western Paradise."
A muffled laugh came from the front, which made Xiang Yao bolder. She stretched out her index finger and poked the straight back: "Nie Baichuan, are you laughing?"
I was still amused by her.
Nie Baichuan remained silent, and Xiang Yao poked him twice more.
"What? You don't want to call me brother anymore?" There was a hint of teasing in his voice.
Xiang Yao smiled and said bluntly, "That's what I heard Brother Hai and the others call you last time."
In fact, she also felt weird, as if she was the other party's younger brother.
Nie Baichuan: "You should just call me by my name. It sounds weird to me."
Xiang Yao pecked at rice like a chick: "Hmm."
"Take the right at the fork in the road ahead!" Xiang Yao reminded her promptly. She had taken the wrong turn last time.
When the car reached the fork in the road, we soon saw some scattered houses on both sides of the road.
Xiang Yao tilted his head slightly and looked ahead, only to see a group of people gathered in front of a house in the distance on the left side of the road.
I'm far away, I can't hear any sound, and I don't know what I'm doing.
"Nie Baichuan, how about we look to the left first?" Xiang Yao said a little embarrassedly.
There are so many people over there, there must be some melons!
Nie Baichuan tilted his head slightly: "Hmm?"
Xiang Yao smiled awkwardly: "I want to go over there to see what's going on, no, uh...what's going on. Otherwise, just leave me here. It's very close to my grandma's house. I'll go there by myself later."
She didn't want to bother others like that, especially since they were just there to watch the fun.
Nie Baichuan didn't say anything. When he reached the fork in the road, the car turned left.
Xiang Yao was very grateful and decided to give him a handful of peanuts and tomatoes when he left.
As for the watermelon, she won’t stuff it in because it’s not easy for her to make it come out.
As we gradually approached the family, faint sounds came through the ridges of the fields.
"We want justice. Your Wang family was the first to do such a shameless thing. What? You want your whole family to turn against us? Is there any justice in the world?"
"I'm telling you, if you don't give our family an explanation today, you won't have a good life in the future!"
"Brother Zhang, don't be so anxious. Let's sit down and talk about this slowly, okay?"
"Oh my, what are we still talking about? What bad luck has befallen our Zhang family to have encountered something like this? Oh my, I am going to die!"
"Auntie, please get up quickly and stop sitting on the ground. We have something to discuss!"
"Ahh! Don't touch me! You bad guys!"
…
There were cries, scolding, and exhortations mixed together in a chaotic cacophony. Xiang Yao pricked up his ears carefully, trying to figure out the cause and effect of these words quickly.
Nie Baichuan frowned, feeling that the noises were a bit noisy, and couldn't help but turn his head and ask Xiang Yao:
"Do you like watching this kind of excitement?"
