DAY 38 Mo's Request
For those of us who haven't eaten anything fresh in a long time, this is a paradise.
My brother and I starry at the long main dining table, steaming stir-fried live crab with hibiscus, blue cinnamon fish, jade belt shrimp, oily bean curd, white grilled wings, Dongpo elbow, bean crucian carp, fish roll with tomato sauce, husband and wife lung slices, stewed horseshoe turtle, stewed pigeon in Huangshan, pickled mandarin fish, braised civet, fragrant fried chicken, Maofeng smoked anchovies, fire-baked fish, crab roe shrimp cup, fat kingfish in milk sauce and fried pipa shrimp, and a large pot of steaming sauerkraut fish and crispy roast duck in the middle. On the small dining table next to it, there is a circle of Cantonese and Fujian dishes - cooked Taiji shrimp, Cantonese roasted stuffed duck, Buddha jumping over the wall, drunken pork ribs, dried scallops, Youxi duck, Qixing fish ball soup, soft beaded fish, dragon body anchovy shrimp, stewed whole chicken, fried double crispy, fragrant dew whole chicken, drunk clam meat, etc.
As if afraid that it would not suit our appetite, Lin Bo pushed a big trolley again, which was full of crystal trotters, stewed crab roe lion's head, Jinling meatballs, white sauce cabbage, simmered chicken with yellow mud, stewed chicken fu, Jinling duck, golden fragrant cake, chicken soup boiled dried shreds and meat stuffed with raw bran, and after making sure that the dish was indeed rich enough, he finally bowed to us with satisfaction: "Miss Mo will be here soon, please all guests eat first, if you have something to do just press the bell on the table, I will come at the first moment." With that, he straightened up and retreated with his eyes down, and thoughtfully helped us close the door.
We immediately pounced on the dishes and ate them without hesitation, and without looking at what they were, we just stuffed them into our mouths, and after a few chews, we swallowed them and quickly ate another bite, so delicious that we almost swallowed our tongues. Soon the main table was almost finished, and we quickly moved on to the smaller table.
When Xiaomo came over, he saw the tragic scene of all of us with all kinds of sauces on our faces, and the last chicken that we had already caught on the trolley that had been caught by us was no longer able to see the original method.
"You're really hungry." Xiaomo stood at the door and didn't come in, looking at me and Shatter who were crowded at the front with an expressionless face.
We didn't have time to speak, and nodded sloppily as we swallowed. In fact, hunger is secondary, mainly because the dishes made here are really delicious!! Ordinary home-cooked food can also give the level of making a five-star hotel.
When we had finally finished eating the last chicken, and had washed our hands and faces with the towels and water brought by the servants, we finally sat down contentedly on the sofa in the living room next to the dining room.
"I feel like the way we just ate it was like TheWalkingDead." Shatter whispered to me with a blushing face and then realizing it.
"Haven't you been here several times? How can you still be attracted by the food here, and eat like that with us, it's really spineless. "I squinted and despised her.
Xiao Mo glanced at me and Shatter expressionlessly: "I just saw you like that, I really thought you were all infected with the virus." β
The younger brother couldn't help but ask: "Sister Xiaomo, your cooking is at this level, so how can you usually endure your school cafeteria?" β¦β¦β
"Is there a big difference?" Xiaomo looked at his younger brother and asked rhetorically, his eyes revealed a trace of doubt, but his facial expression still did not change at all.
Crowd: Is "......" a new type of joke popular among rich people?
I tried to change the subject: "Xiaomo, are you okay at home these days?" β
ββ¦β¦ Okay, what about you? Why didn't you see An An come together? Xiao Mo blinked at me and Shatter.
I glanced at Shatter, hesitated for a while, and decided that it was up to me to speak, although my tone was very difficult: "Xiaomo, in fact, we are here this time because...... We want to enter F City, but ...... We don't have enough food reserves...... It's too much to say, and I've already eaten so much of you...... But could you please give us a little more food? I'll definitely find a way to pay it back to you in the future. After saying it with difficulty, I felt that I was like a shameless shameless person who came to collect debts at this time, and I was really very, very embarrassed, and the guarantee behind me even felt empty when I listened to it, and the burning sensation on my face made me unable to look up at Xiaomo's expression for a while.
"You're going to F City?!" Xiaomo's tone suddenly became a little excited and hurried for some reason, "No problem." Later, I'll ask Limber to take you to the warehouse, and you can pick whatever you want, there are many kinds of fruits and vegetables in there. If it's not easy to cook, there are cakes and bread snacks in the kitchen, and you can bring them with you if you want. But I have a requestβ" and after a pause, he tried to look at me with what could be described as earnest, "please take me with you." β
"Huh? What are you doing in F City? "I looked up and looked at Crush, and both of them felt strange.
"I've always wanted to check on the situation, I have a relative in F City, who has been missing from me for a long time, and I want to confirm his safety." Speaking of this, Xiao Mo's eyes revealed a hint of gloom, "I have mentioned it to Lin Bo many times, but he is not worried about letting me go alone, and I don't want to be so willful to ask Lin Bo or other people in the family to go to that dangerous place with me during this special period - Lin Bo has been working in this family since I was not born, and if something happens to him, I will not forgive myself." β
"Just in time you're here, I think it's an opportunity. There are so many of you, Lin Bo should also agree, and I'll ask him to call my dad to confirm it later, and it's no problem for him, and now it's up to you to give your opinion. Speaking of this, Xiaomo's emotions began to get excited, "Please take me with you!" My instincts tell me what's wrong with him...... Now I am the only one who can save him......" seemed to think of something terrible, her body became slightly trembling, and her voice was rarely dyed with crying.
This is the first time Xiaomo has said such a long paragraph in front of us, and it is also the first time to see Xiaomo have such strong emotional fluctuations, it seems that that "relative" must be very important to Xiaomo. Shatter and I hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her, Shatter picked up a tissue from the coffee table to help her gently wipe the tears that rolled down, and I hugged her and patted her back softly comforted: "Since you said so, of course you can, it's not a big deal." Something may have happened to your relative, maybe it was just a phone or communication device that accidentally broke? My uncle used to be like that, you see he's doing well with me now, bouncing around, right? Let's not think about the bad all the time, we freak ourselves out, so what should we do next, you say. β
Xiaomo sniffled, leaned on my shoulder and nodded. It seemed that it was the first time to show her emotions in front of so many people, and she bowed her head a little embarrassed and got up: "Thank you, then I'll go and tell Lin Bo now." With that, he left the room.
"Sister Mo seems to have become a little different from the last time I saw her." The younger brother said with a frown as he looked in the direction of the gate.
"Yes, I should be really worried about her relatives, they are all thin." I also frowned and looked in the direction of the gate worriedly.
The younger brother did not answer, and silently withdrew his gaze.
After a long time, there were two knocks on the door. Lin Bo pushed open the door of the living room and came in, and bowed to us: "I have heard about the situation, Miss Mo will ask you." I'll take you to the warehouse to pick up the essentials, please come with me. β
