Chapter 27: Warm Stove
Bai Xiao didn't let Liu Baoguo and Li Chunmei leave at noon, but instead used other people's vegetables, meat, rice and noodles to make a sumptuous meal to entertain the two families.
The table was a small round table borrowed from a neighbor's house, a bench was also borrowed, and the dishes and chopsticks were also borrowed.
Two tables were set out under the jujube trees in the courtyard.
Liu Baoguo and Li Chunhua were also shocked when they looked at this rich dish, this girl has such good skills?
The two of them glanced at each other, it seems that Boss Bai is a capable person, and the girl at home teaches her well, look at this girl.
Li Xiaotian glanced at the dishes on the table and couldn't help but suck his saliva.
"Uncle, I'll buy you a bar!"
Liu Baoguo slapped Li Xiaotian on the head, "It's you kid who wants to drink, right?"
Li Chunmei took out two yuan from her pocket and handed it to Li Xiaotian, "Go ahead, buy two pots of rice wine and two bottles of soju, the big guy can't live up to the wishes of others." ”
Li Xiaotian immediately took the money and ran away with a "sigh".
Li Chunmei walked to the door of the kitchen, just in time to show that the last dish was ready, and with a sting, a fragrance wafted out of it.
"Oh, Xiao, it's almost done, this was originally sent to you by us, and you all went into our stomachs, what's going on!"
That being said, I am happy in my heart, this girl is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and she knows how to deal with people.
Bai Xiao picked up the curtain and came out, holding a large bowl in his hand, "Auntie, there is another bowl, you can bring it out, one table and one bowl! Be impartial, you say that I am eccentric! You all taste my craft, and everyone has no chance to taste my craft on weekdays! I'm not just here to show off, it's also a big guy warming the stove for me." Just a little bit of fun together!"
Li Chunmei hurriedly agreed and brought it out.
"Oh, Xiao, your craft, the master of our village can't catch up with you, it's so skillful!"
Bai Xiao pursed her lips and smiled, "Auntie, don't boast about it, if you praise me again, I will go to heaven." ”
Li Xiaotian was extremely fast, carrying two bottles of soju in his hands, and two people behind him, Liu Baoguo took a look.
"Oh, Camp Commander An, you are really blessed, it just so happens that we give Bai Xiao a warm stove, you come together, come and come, sit down." He beckoned Commander An to sit down with his comrades.
Camp Chief An handed Bai Xiao the rice wine and canned fruit in his hand and two bags of milk powder, "It's just right, a little heart, take it!" "It's not a joke to see Bai Xiao like that yesterday, this girl is not in good health, this is specially brought for Bai Xiao, I didn't expect it to be just in time for other people's stoves, fortunately I didn't have empty hands."
Bai Xiao is also refreshing, everyone was saved by others, and she helped her so much, no matter how polite she was, she was a little ignorant.
"Thank you, Camp Chief, then I will accept it unceremoniously. "Put things back in the house.
Li Chunmei and Liu Baoguo arranged for the battalion commander and the soldiers to sit down, added dishes and chopsticks, and poured liquor.
Camp Commander An, "We are disciplined and can't drink!"
Liu Baoguo smiled, "Battalion Commander An, don't be polite! Since you came here today, how can you not drink a glass of the stove for others? Just drink a little less, or you will drink rice wine, and rice wine will not be considered wine, meaning one or two glasses, we also know that your troops are strict, but you have been coming to our village to help these days." Anyway, let's say thank you, no. As he spoke, he specially changed the rice wine bowl for Camp Commander An.
Battalion Commander An still resolutely refused, and Liu Baoguo was not good at continuing to let it, after all, they were PLA troops with their own discipline, which they all knew.
Bai Xiao came back, but saw Camp Commander An sitting in the seat next to him, didn't say anything, and sat down to eat.
An Zhiyuan looked at the dishes on the table, and couldn't help but glance at Bai Xiao, his eyes were surprised, this girl's skills are really good.
Boiled pork slices, steamed pork, sweet and sour fish, back-to-the-pot meat Sixi meatballs, as well as vinegared cabbage, cold cucumbers and sugar tomatoes, plus a shallot, mixed with tofu, almost all the northern and southern tastes are taken care of, and the most important thing is that this color and fragrance looks better than the master chef of their army canteen.
I sandwiched a piece of boiled pork with chopsticks, wow, it's refreshing.
Bai Xiao took the rice wine in the bowl and stood up, "Thank you very much today, come to warm the stove for me, I don't have a father or mother, and my brothers and sisters are not around, thank you for your help this time, here I solemnly thank you, everyone says to do it first, I will use this bowl of rice wine to dry, everyone is free." Bai Xiao drank it all, although she suffered a lot in her previous life, she was a cool person.
Take the empty bowl upside down and show it to everyone.
Liu Baoguo slapped his thigh, "Okay, Bai Xiao Shuangli! Everyone else has done it, if we don't do it with us, don't we even want to have a face?"
"Xiao, uncle is here to make a compensatory deal with you, all these years the big guys think that your grandma, your uncle takes care of you, after all, it is your own relatives, and he can't treat you badly, I really didn't expect that your grandma would do this, and the abuse of children is the first in our village, and the big guys didn't know about it before, so I won't say it, and if you have anything to worry about, you will come to me, the village head, and the uncle will call the shots for you, and you will never let your grandma and your uncle be so harmful." ”
This is the first time that he has clearly put on an attitude, if Liu Baoguo would never have done this kind of thing before, how could he meddle in other people's family affairs in front of everyone.
But this time, of course, it was different.
Bai Xiao smiled and thanked: "Then thank you, uncle." ”
Pushing the cup and changing the lamp for a while, everyone couldn't stop eating as soon as they started.
The taste of this dish is definitely very authentic, even if they are from the village and have not eaten anything good, but who has not eaten the wedding banquet and the wine of the full moon, the taste and taste of this dish are still different.
All of a sudden, they were full of praise.
Li Chunmei even pulled Bai Xiao to praise him, and promised that if he came to their village chief for anything in the future, they would serve the people.
An Zhiyuan gulped down the food and couldn't help but look at Bai Xiao.
This girl was not surprised, and ate her own food peacefully.
After a meal, the cups and plates were all empty, and Liu Baoguo and the others left drunk.
It's really not that Liu Baoguo doesn't pay attention to his demeanor, An Zhiyuan is here, how could he, the village chief, be with him, but today the food is too delicious, these people can't control it for a while, a few bottles of white dry soju are in their stomachs, and they are all dizzy at this time, and they can't sit still if they want to stay here to accompany them.
An Zhiyuan and the soldiers helped Li Chunmei and the others to send the village chief and them home.
Bai Xiao was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, when he saw a pair of big hands reaching over and putting those things into a big basin, An Zhiyuan and the little soldier didn't leave.
"Camp Commander An, don't do it, I'll clean it up, how can you come to eat, and there is a reason to let the guests clean up. ”
An Zhiyuan smiled, "How can we be soldiers with so many things, so many things to pack together, and there is great power in numbers." ”
