Chapter 3: Born Like a Summer Flower---9

Sun Ce is about to graduate from college in a few days, in the days when he is about to leave school, his classmates are busy packing their bags and contacting their jobs, Sun Ce's study abroad plan has been completed, relatively speaking, Sun Ce is more leisurely, he often goes to Yue Di, listens to Yue Di sing, cooks for Yue Di, and accompanies Yue Di to go shopping. Since Li Yuedi accepted Liu Jibao's first prize, Liu Jibao's rhythm of buying things for Li Yuedi has not stopped, a bottle of French perfume today, a bottle of cosmetics tomorrow, a bouquet of flowers the day after tomorrow, a frame the day after tomorrow, and so on. Anything that girls like, Liu Jibao always tries his best to give it to Li Yuedi, of course Yuedi knows Liu Jibao's intentions, and Liu Jibao also knows the relationship between Yuedi and Sun Ce. Every time Liu Jibao gave Yue Di a small gift, Yue Di wanted to refuse, and it was not good not to give the logistics manager face, and the things still had to be accepted, but Yue Di had long been clear about the reason that she was soft and ate other people's short mouths. Liu Jibao's non-stop sending things really made Li Yuedi a little unbearable, and sometimes even thought that she should return something to Liu Jibao, thinking about it like this, she felt that it was wrong, didn't this fall into Liu Jibao's arms, I didn't want to be in line with Liu Jibao's mind, and it was really not an easy task to terminate Liu Jibao's pursuit.

Yuedi thought that if there was a chance to introduce Liu Jibao to an object, maybe he would stop working himself, but Li Yuedi didn't know a few girls in Nancheng City, besides, even if she knew a girl, Liu Jibao might not be able to look at it, Yuedi knew that the reason why Liu Jibao liked herself was that she was more beautiful, more low-key, and more docile. Liu Jibao didn't find that he also had a very fierce side, how to make Liu Jibao discover his tigress side. In addition, Liu Jibao's parents have always hoped to find Ma Rui, can they make a match? Thinking of this, he wants to discuss with his brother, he must find a more effective way, he wants his brother to cooperate with him, show his fierce side, let Liu Jibao see that he is not as docile as he imagined. In addition, Liu Jibao and Ma Rui were also given a chance to chat together, maybe this matter could pass like this. Yue Di wanted to invite the three of them to come to the house for dinner, and she had promised Liu Jibao that she would invite him to eat canned meat, so she just used this opportunity to give back to Liu Jibao. Thinking of this, she immediately called Sun Ce to discuss some details of the party.

At ten o'clock in the morning of the next day, Ma Rui and Liu Jibao came to Li Yuedi's residence one after another, and Sun Ce had already arrived and was already preparing lunch in the kitchen. Yue Di sat on the sofa and watched TV intently, when she saw Liu Jibao and Ma Rui coming, she happily stood up to greet the two, Ma Rui saw that Yue Di was greeting them, but Sun Ce was busy in the kitchen, so she couldn't help but say: "Little sister Yue Di, you really follow the customs." Yue Di said: "Why did Sister Ma say this?" Ma Rui said: "You don't know, let me tell you, there are three monsters in Nancheng, the old man is afraid of the old lady, ducks sell faster than chickens, and stones are also sold as treasures."

Sister Ma Rui explained, Ma Rui said: "This, Liu Jibao, you will come."

Liu Jibao said: " This is easy to understand, Nancheng people prefer to eat ducks, saltwater duck is not the characteristics of Nancheng, Nancheng people do not like to eat chicken, so ducks sell faster than chickens; Nancheng's Yuhua Stone is very famous, and the price of good Yuhua Stone is not cheap, equivalent to jewelry, as for the old man is afraid of the old lady, it is better to understand, this shows that the men in Nancheng are very diligent, good to their wives, even if there are guests at home, women do not cook, men cook, women are responsible for greeting guests, just now Ma Rui said that you follow the customs, this is what it means."

Yue Di said: "Then if you and Sister Ma Rui are a family, and there are guests at home, you are cooking, and Sister Ma Rui greets guests, then will you go to the kitchen, can you cook?"

Liu Jibao said: "Where can I cook, if that's really the case, I will go to the restaurant with the guests to eat."

Yue Di said: "What if the guests don't want to eat outside."

Ma Rui said: "Yes, what should I do if the guests don't want to go out to eat?"

Yue Di said: "Look, Manager Liu, what about Sister Ma Rui asking you? If I stay in Nancheng, I won't cook."

Liu Jibao said: "When there is no way out, just learn to cook, it's not very difficult."

Li Yuedi said: "It's not a difficult thing, then you can't, my brother's cooking level is very high, I don't believe you can taste it later, it's much better than the taste of a restaurant."

Sun Ce heard their conversation in the kitchen, and kept thinking in his heart, usually with his sister, I didn't see my sister have so many hearts, but, this guy in society, it has become so unpredictable, cooking is certainly not a big problem for Sun Ce, this is a compulsory course since he went to elementary school, there is no quality requirement for cooking in the past, today invite classmates to eat, must make a few high-quality dishes, after discussing this with his sister yesterday, he went to the bookstore to buy a cooking book, and bought the corresponding ingredients according to the ingredients in the book, and it is not difficult to make it in the pot todayใ€‚ But this matter has to be put on Liu Jibao's body, but it is not ordinary, where can Liu Jibao do this. Yuedi wants Liu Jibao to feel that he is not only inferior to Sun Ce in academics, but also far from Sun Ce in terms of life, and he is far from enough in caring for women. There are two other aspects, which require their own cooperation, and they must withstand the nagging and pungency of women. These things should discourage Liu Jibao. To be ashamed of himself, to make Liu Jibao have the idea that he can't match, and to nag and pungency to make Liu Jibao dare not get close. Thus giving up some superfluous thoughts about Yuedi. Now the first level seems to have had the desired effect.

The three of them chatted in the living room, and after a while, Sun Ce brought six dishes to the table, three meat and three vegetarian dishes: meat dishes are: Dongpo elbow, sweet and sour crispy fish, saltwater duck, and three vegetarian dishes are: home-style tofu slices, dried fried beans, and three shreds of cold salad. Yuedi set up the dishes and chopsticks, beckoned Ma Rui and Liu Jibao to take a seat, Sun Ce opened the beer, and the four of them ate.

Liu Jibao said: "Li Yuedi, didn't you say that you invited me to eat stuffed meat, why didn't you have it today."

Yue Di said: "My brother is not very good at cooking, I haven't been in the kitchen for a long time, and I have forgotten how to do it, my mother is doing very well, I am not at a high level, I invited you two today, I think I still don't do it well, I can't do it well, it's embarrassing."

Sun Ce said: "Li Yuedi's cooking level, I don't dare to compliment, I made stuffed meat several times and asked me to eat, but the result is that some pieces of meat are raw, either salty or without salt, eat once, and have a headache."

Ma Rui said: "Sun Ce, it's not so hurtful, what did you say about Li Yuedi, it seems that people are stupid and can't even cook."

Sun Ce said: "No, Li Yuedi's cooking porridge is still quite good. โ€

Liu Jibao said: "I said Brother Sun Ce, you are too good at hurting people, your affirmation, isn't it a denial, oh, Li Yuedi can only cook cooked porridge? โ€

Ma Rui said: "Liu Jibao can cook porridge, not to mention Li Yuedi." โ€

Li Yuedi said: "You listen to what my brother said, as if he can cook very well, to be honest, I don't like my brother's cooking, it's not much better than me, just look at these six dishes today." Look at this Dongpo elbow, the sugar color is too heavy, it is a little black, open it to see the inside, the overall heat is not enough, not soft enough, the middle part is not very flavorful, the juice poured on it, the rock sugar is too much, too sweet, there is no spicy taste, there is no Sichuan characteristics at all, this Dongpo elbow is originally a classic dish in Sichuan cuisine, let you do this, what do others think of us Sichuan people. Look at the sweet and sour crispy fish you made, there is no sugar and vinegar, and the knife work is not good, what is the sweet and sour crispy fish of others, the fish skin should be cut into the shape of chrysanthemums, and it is fried at high temperature after hanging the batter, and the taste is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. โ€

Ma Rui said: "Li Yuedi, you are about to become a gourmet, and you say one thing at a time. โ€

Liu Jibao said: "Li Yuedi, then you must be doing well." โ€

Li Yuedi said: "That's not right, Manager Liu, I'm a gourmet, not a big chef, I can only taste it, and I will burn it at every turn when I make it myself." โ€

Sun Ce also said: "It's easy to say others, but it's not the same thing to do it yourself, several times I came here, Li Yuedi made the house full of burnt smell, and said about me."

Li Yuedi said: "Say what I do, I cook is a rough person, you can't do it well, you are looking at the home-cooked tofu you made, the tofu originally needs to be fried, you do it well, you come to fry, fried, this tofu still has a little taste of tofu, and, you see, there is no last process, the last process of home-cooked tofu is quite important, that is, it must be thickened, not thickened, it is equivalent to this dish is not finished, see if it is not finished, it will be served to us to eat, you are really."

Ma Rui said: "Little sister Yuedi, your standards are too high, I think Sun Ce's dish tastes quite good, let you say this, I really feel a little wrong." โ€

Sun Ce said: "My sister, hey, he has always been so bad for me. โ€

Li Yuedi said: "To be honest, brother, look at it, in addition to being a little better than me in reading, what else are you better than me, better at earning money than me, or better at fighting than me."

Sun Ce quibbled: "At present, I am in school, of course I can't earn you so much money, I can't beat you in a fight, isn't it because you have been learning martial arts since you were a child, have I ever learned martial arts."

Liu Jibao said: "Li Yuedi, you can still fight, and you have also learned martial arts?"

Ma Rui's eyes widened and said, "Li Yuedi, you are so thin, you can actually fight, Sun Ce can't beat you?"

Sun Ce said: "I am definitely not her opponent in the fight, this must be admitted, she has practiced with his father since she was a child, and she has childish skills." I remember when I was in the third year of junior high school, in our physical education class, a young and strong male physical education teacher, taught us to play long boxing, our whole class was very interested, very attentive to learning, Li Yuedi was naughty, did not learn, sat on the ground and teased ants, the teacher was so angry that he rushed over to clean her up, the teacher just stretched out his hand, we didn't see what we were going on, the physical education teacher was a big back straddle by her, and fell to the ground on his back, the teacher was so angry that he jumped like thunder, the teacher may think that he was careless, he was suddenly attacked by this little girl, stood up, pulled away from the stand, and a side hook punch hit him, Li Yuedi squatted, a sweep retreated, and the teacher was thrown to the ground again, The teacher stood up, gritted his teeth and shouted, a tiger pounced and flew over, only to see Li Yuedi, a slight twist, the teacher pounced, "poof" Yuedi went over, pulled up the teacher, and slapped the dust on the teacher's body for the teacher, the teacher forgave her, and other boys were not honest in class, so the teacher asked Li Yuedi to be responsible for cleaning him up, and then the boys in our class wanted to try how powerful Li Yuedi was, first one or two, then three or four, then five or six, and then seven or eight, seven or eight boys pressed Li Yuedi to the ground, and her pants were about to be torn, she was in a hurry, and bit a boy's arm, and this thing stoppedโ€ใ€‚

Liu Jibao listened to Sun Ce's narration with his mouth open, as if he was listening to a martial arts novel, and he said suspiciously: "No, Li Yuedi, you are so powerful." โ€

Li Yuedi knew that her brother was talking nonsense, making up a martial arts story to scare Liu Jibao, she did not deny it, and also said with half-truths: "Don't listen to my brother's nonsense, it was the teacher who asked me, how could I be so powerful, I was ignorant when I was young, I played with the teacher and my classmates."

Ma Rui said: "I can't see it, your martial arts level is still very high, Liu Jibao, try it with Li Yuedi, oh...... Oh...... , I remember, when we were freshmen, we went to the restaurant to avenge you, and I heard from the boss that you seriously injured the chef of the restaurant and was admitted to the hospital, it seems to be true, none of us believed that you would hurt that hooligan, that cook, I have seen, at least 1.8 meters tall, and so strong".

Sun Ce said: "That Boss Wang exaggerated, it will definitely not be seriously injured, it is certain that he is injured, my sister, this measure is still very good."

Li Yuedi does not deny it, she knows that her martial arts level is a few pounds and a few taels, her brother said that she is very measured, or is it showing that her martial arts are strong, and she even grasps the hooligans to that extent very accurately, which shows that she is at ease, she knows that against the gangsters who don't know martial arts at all, her self-defense skills do have a certain effect, but they are by no means as miraculous as her brother's blowing.

Liu Jibao said in surprise: "And this matter, my God, Li Yuedi, you hide it very deeply, never say it, I can't see it at all."

Ma Rui said: "How can you say this thing when you see people, Liu Jibao, if you don't believe it, try it, how can you know the depth if you don't try."

Liu Jibao said: "Ma Rui, I'm afraid that the world will not be chaotic, I have been cleaned up, you look good at jokes, I won't do it."

The four of them were talking and laughing, pushing the cups and changing the lamps, and most of the dishes on the table were wiped out in the laughter, and suddenly, Li Yuedi's phone rang. It was Yuedi's mother, Mrs. Qian, who called, and her mother only said that she would let Yuedi go home immediately, and her voice was so hoarse that she couldn't hear clearly, and then she hung up the phone, Yuedi felt that the situation was not good, and called the phone back, but there were no more people answering the phone, Yuedi was so anxious that she felt that there might be big trouble at home.

Li Yuedi received a phone call, and had a premonition that there might be a big problem at home, so she called home, but no one answered at home, Sun Ce thought that it might be that her uncle was sick, and it was likely that no one at home answered the phone, Sun Ce dialed the phone at home, and it was his mother who answered the phone, and learned that Li Yuedi's father was seriously ill, and Sun Jiachang also went to help.

Li Yuedi needs to return to her hometown in Sichuan immediately, traffic has become a big problem, the train is too slow, the plane must not be able to buy a ticket, Ma Rui suggested that Liu Jibao use the company's car to send Yuedi home, Liu Jibao agreed to it, Liu Jibao told Yuedi, if it is two drivers, the distance of 2,000 kilometers, it is estimated that it can be run in 20 hours, without further ado, Li Yuedi can't take care of a lot, Liu Jibao immediately arranged a vehicle, Li Yuedi only took half an hour to pack up, Sun Ce carried Yuedi's luggage, and sent Yuedi to a Toyota off-road vehicle sent by Liu Jibaoใ€‚
