Lin Xiuyao returned home and brought Tang Yanghua with him. "Sister-in-law, I heard you were having a barbecue today. I came uninvited. Sorry to bother you."
Su Qingmeng smiled and said, "It is a great honor for our humble home to have Mr. Tang here. I can't express my welcome enough."
Lin Xiuyao was different from her. He seldom brought friends to his house for gatherings. He usually chose to eat in restaurants. Su Qingmeng asked this question out of curiosity. He said that men always smoked and drank when they got together, and he didn't want them to make the house smoky, so Lin Xiuyao's friends seldom came.
Several people started to wash and cut vegetables and put them on skewers. Lin Xiuyao had made thorough preparations, including barbecue charcoal, a grill, and wooden skewers. They often ate like this at home when they lived in Beijing, so the kitchen utensils were all ready.
It was past four o'clock when Tang Qiuyu arrived with her husband and children. "Sorry, we're late. Something unexpected happened at the hospital this afternoon."
"It's okay. Better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. We're just about to start baking."
Kang Kang saw his little friend: "Brother Xiaoyuan, I miss you so much." "Brother Kang Kang, I miss you too." Lu Zhiyuan held his hand.
Kang Kang pulled him to the toy room, "Brother Xiaoyuan, I have so many things to tell you. Do you know that I participated in the Children's Day..."
Lu Jun and Lin Xiuyao nodded, then looked at Tang Yanghua, "You're here too?"
He and Tang Yanghua grew up in the same compound, but later he joined the army while Tang Yanghua got a job and was admitted to university. Both of them were very busy and only got together occasionally.
Tang Yanghua raised his eyebrows, "I'm here to eat for free."
The grill in the yard has been set up. Su Qingmeng drew a picture based on her memories from later life and asked Lin Xiuyao to find someone to build it. It is more suitable for home use.
They started to cook. The ingredients included various marinated meats, vegetables such as eggplant, leeks, and hot peppers, fish, shrimp, and steamed buns, plus Su Qingmeng's exclusive secret barbecue ingredients.
Friends praised the food again and again, and Tang Yanghua gave a thumbs up, saying, "It's so delicious when eaten this way." The food is also especially suitable for gatherings with friends, so a store like this should be very popular.
The girls drank fruit juice drinks and the men drank beer. On this summer evening, the smell of fireworks and laughter in the courtyard could be heard from far away.
