Yan Guofeng knew that with them around, the little ones would not be able to play freely, so he said goodbye, and then Yan Hejun and Song Man also said goodbye.
After seeing the three of them off, the remaining group consisted of young people. Zhong Yuxiu asked, "Do you want to play cards? Chess? Read? Or do you want to do something else?"
"Sister-in-law, do you have poker?"
"It seems not." Zhong Yuxiu shook her head.
"I have it at home. I'll go back and get it." Wu Chao jumped up from the sofa and ran out.
"The second one is still like a monkey." Lin Kai sighed helplessly.
When Wu Chao came back, he brought not only poker, but also chess, checkers, and mahjong. "Come on, come on, I've brought all the toys I have at home. Everyone, take your pick and play whatever you want."
"You really got them all." Cao Zheng rushed over to help him share the burden, the heaviest of which was mahjong.
"Since you've got the cards, pick one to play. Sister-in-law, Dashan, what are you guys playing?" Cheng Minglang said expressionlessly as he calmly walked over to pick up the cards. "Who wants to play poker? Let's team up."
Cao Zheng and Wu Chao said in unison, "Me."
"Come." Cheng Minglang sat down on the sofa, "Sister-in-law, Dashan, you can choose what to play."
"Old Five, let's play chess." Luo Lijun took the chess pieces in his hand and called Lin Kai to play next to him.
Zhong Yuxiu and Yan Rushan were left unselected. Zhong Yuxiu said with a smile, "It's just the two of us. Let's play checkers."
"Yeah." Yan Rushan took out the checkers and took her to the dining table in the dining room to play.
The Zhong family was very lively throughout the afternoon, and it seemed that everyone was having fun; but they would occasionally talk and chat, and when they got excited, they would start making noise, adding some liveliness to the deserted house.
For dinner, the old man of the Yan family, Yan Hejun and Song Man did not come. Zhong Yuxiu and Yan Rushan invited them, but they refused.
Without the three elders around, Luo Lijun played as he pleased, and indeed he was more relaxed and had more fun than when the elders were around. Halfway through dinner, the food consumed was more than one-third compared to lunch, which showed that they had really let go.
Zhong Yuxiu put down the bowl, and they were still chatting and laughing while eating happily; Yuxiu got up and went to the kitchen, while Goudan waited in the corner.
"Gou Dan."
"Ding." Goudan started and his waist straightened instantly.
Zhong Yuxiu walked up to it and patted it, "Thank you for your hard work."
"Ding ding ding." These are what Goudan should do.
"They're still eating. There's not much beef, mutton, potato slices, green vegetables, and radish slices left on the table. Please prepare some more for them, and you can prepare more meat."
“Ding ding ding.”
Zhong Yuxiu smiled and said, "Go ahead and do your work. I'll be out first."
As soon as Zhong Yuxiu left, Goudan started busying himself in the kitchen. There was not much beef and mutton left; he cut them all into pieces, arranged them on plates, and sent them outside.
Luo Lijun and others looked at the plates feeling a little embarrassed, their faces definitely flushed; even though there were many people at noon, they didn't eat so much, but they ate even more at night.
"Goudan prepared a lot, so everyone ate as much as they could. It would be a waste if we don't finish it. We're afraid the meat will go bad if we keep it frozen outside." The cut meat will easily go bad if it is frozen outside, so it's more convenient to freeze it as a whole piece.
"In that case, thank you sister-in-law for the hospitality. You're welcome, brothers." Wu Chao smiled very humorously and was the first to pour the red oil soup base on a plate of beef.
Cao Zheng, Lin Kai, Cheng Minglang and the others smiled and thanked him. "Eat and drink as you please. Why be so polite at the boss and his wife's house? That would be awkward."
After the meal, all the meat and vegetables bought earlier were used up; only the food bought by Haonan and others was left, which was enough for Zhong Yuxiu to eat for ten days to half a month.
After eating and drinking their fill, the big men slumped in their chairs, chatting happily.
"Sister-in-law, I don't want to leave after eating this meal."
"Old Five is right. I don't want to leave either."
"Ditto."
Lin Kai sighed, and several others echoed him. Wu Chao said with a flattering smile: "Sister-in-law, can we come here often in the future?"
"Do you want to eat your sister-in-law out of money?" Without waiting for Yuxiu to speak, Yan Rushan looked at them with a half-smile and spoke without mercy.
Wu Chao's neck shrank, a chill ran down his spine, and he took a step back. "Well, well, we'll bring our own food."
The smile in Yan Rushan's eyes faded, and Cao Zheng said hurriedly.
"Boss, if we come here more often, you can have dinner and meet your sister-in-law more often!"
"There are many of us, so the meal is lively. You see, my sister-in-law ate quite a lot today. She definitely doesn't eat so much on other days." It's true that girls all want to have a good figure.
Zhong Yuxiu shook her head and laughed, lowered her head and bent her index finger to fix her nose bridge.
"Yuxiu has a good appetite. She can eat so much even without you."
"Impossible, how can my sister-in-law be so thin after eating so much?" Wu Chao denied it outright.
Cao Zheng nodded. "That's right! Look at the girls in our compound. They all eat at most two bowls of rice a day. Three bowls is too little. They all want to maintain their figure and marry into a good family. If you ask me, what kind of good family can marry them for their figure?"
Zhong Yuxiu couldn't help but chuckle, "Sorry, I couldn't help it. Well, actually I have a very good appetite and I eat a lot, much more than you guys."
"When your sister-in-law was at the educated youth camp, she was the best eater among us educated youth." Yan Rushan became proud as he spoke.
"How could it be..." Wu Chao and the others looked at Zhong Yuxiu back and forth, disbelief written all over their faces.
"Being able to eat is a blessing. Why can't your sister-in-law eat?"
As soon as Yan Rushan said this, Wu Chao and others quickly withdrew their gazes, some lowered their heads, some smiled awkwardly, and some tried to please him eagerly.
