Chapter 298: A Guest at the Villa (Part II)

Subsequently, Li Youran took them from the first floor to the third floor, and went out to the terrace to present the wide and beautiful Mingcui Lake in front of everyone, the reeds in the eastern part of the lake were all blooming, and the white expanse was like a goose feather snow in winter, which was magnificent.

All kinds of waterfowl take off and land from time to time, and the chirping sounds come and go, which is a natural and vivid picture.

"It's beautiful." Su Yao leaned on the balcony railing and was impressed by the magnificent Mingcui Lake.

Ling Wanru and Fang Xiaoman also had happy faces, and they watched the lake and mountains in front of them with great interest.

Li Youran then introduced to them the general situation of Mingcui Lake and the rules of the scenic area

"Boss Xiao Li, you really know how to choose a place, you can really enjoy it." Su Yao turned her head and said to Li Youran.

"Hehe, this is also a coincidence, this real estate project was established early, and the reserve was not determined at that time, and now I want to develop real estate next to the lake but I can't approve it." Li Youran explained with a smile.

Ms. Fang, who seems to have a lot of research on real estate, asked about the cost of buying the villa. After receiving the answer, she nodded affirmatively, saying that the price was well worth it.

"I can't figure it out, is it so profitable to do the bun business now? We worked hard in the company every day, and we had to buy a three-bedroom house and take out a loan. Su Yao said with emotion.

"Okay, do you think it's that easy to do catering? If you don't believe it, ask your boyfriend to try it. Ling Wanru patted her and quipped.

"Hey, actually, it's not easy in all walks of life, I also started selling buns from a small stall, you may not believe it, I also let the chengguan run everywhere, and it is difficult to eat. Later, after slowly accumulating little by little, I have the current little belongings, which are actually far from those that can really be earned. What's more, this house was also bought with a loan, and the pressure of monthly loan repayment is also very high. Li Youran shook his head and said.

When Su Yao heard this, she felt that it was a little plausible, but she couldn't say a reason to refute it for a while.

"Ahh There was an exclamation from the side, and then Fang Xiaoman took a few steps back and collided with Ling Wanru.

"What's wrong, Xiaoman." Ling Wanru hugged her and asked strangely.

"That'...... There's something there, and it's looking at me. Fang Xiaoman exclaimed.

Li Youran immediately understood, he hurriedly slapped his palm, and called:

"Jin Yu, come out, Jin Yu."

With the flapping of its wings, a large golden bird sprang out of the wooden house and landed on the wooden pole outside. Eyes wide open, alert on the three new strangers.

"Ranzi, this is ......" Ling Wanru asked with a hint of surprise on her face.

"Oh, this is Golden Feather, a golden eagle, help me look after the yard." Li Youran introduced, and stepped forward to Jin Yu's side and patted its head.

"Jin Yu, these are my friends. Come and say hello. ”

With that, Jin Yu shouted at the three women.

"Ah, it's a golden eagle." Su Yao likes animals very much, and when she saw the majestic golden feather, she couldn't help but come closer.

"Be careful, the golden eagle is fierce." Ling Wanru reminded.

"It's okay, Jin Yu is very smart, and he listens to me very much, and he won't hurt my friends." Li Youran said with a smile, seeing that the three of them were very interested in Jin Yu, he told him about the treatment of it at that time.

Fang Xiaoman patted his chest, took a breath, and made a relieved look. Target. Ling Wanru questioned.

"Hehe, Jin Yu is free to come and go here with me, I just made a shelter for it, and the state doesn't stipulate that animals can't help, right?" Li Youran smiled and said his reasons.

Ling Wanru frowned slightly, and for a moment felt that the other party's statement seemed to be very reasonable.

"Alright, alright, I've got jerky here, feed it two pieces each, and he'll make friends with you. However, it's best not to talk about Jin Yu's affairs, there is always some trouble. Li Youran took out some beef jerky from the cloth bag and distributed it to everyone. …,

Su Yao was bold, and took the lead in feeding Jin Yu with jerky, and after Jin Yu ate it, she reached out to touch the willow leaf feathers on its neck, giggling happily.

Ling Wanru and Fang Xiaoman saw that there was no difference, and they also came over to feed.

In this process, Li Youran of course had to keep an eye on Jin Yu's reaction at all times, and once he found that something was wrong, he would stop it immediately.

Fortunately, Jin Yu seemed to understand that these people in front of him were his friends, and he did not make the slightest unfriendly move.

Everyone found it very interesting and the atmosphere was very happy.

Approaching noon, Li leisurely slapped his face and announced that everyone was preparing lunch together.

"I have a rule here, everyone who comes to the Li family's compound must prepare their own food, and today's noon program is a barbecue on the terrace, and everyone goes to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients."

"Okay, my favorite barbecue." Su Yao agreed.

"Barbecue, that thing is easy to catch fire, and it's not healthy, the newspaper said that charcoal grilling produces a lot of harmful substances, which is worse than smoking." Fang Xiaoman helped his glasses and admonished.

"You, you are so particular when you go there, you bake it once in a while, and you don't eat it every day, I'm afraid that Shi Ling said disapprehantly.

"It's okay, if you don't want to eat barbecue, I also prepared spicy vegetables and tofu skewers." Li Youran introduced.

Fang Xiaoman listened and was a little hesitant, but the two female companions agreed, and she couldn't say anything more.

Everyone came to the kitchen on the first floor together, and under the command of Li Youran, they rolled up their sleeves, picked vegetables, washed vegetables, and wore skewers, performing their duties and getting busy.

As a result, at the beginning of the barbecue meal, the rich aroma of the grilled fish convinced Fang Xiaoman, who was originally hesitant, and no longer thought about the dangers of charcoal grilling, and ignored Su Yao's teasing, took half of the grilled fish from Li Youran's hand, put it on the plate, and took it aside to enjoy.

Lee's classic grilled foods, such as grilled fish, vegetable skewers, and tofu skewers, quickly conquered the palate of the three young women. So they put down their reserves, feasted, and the food was current, and they didn't care about any dining etiquette, but fortunately, this was not a formal occasion, so it didn't matter.

At the end of the barbecue, everyone enjoyed the fruit after the meal, that is, the grapes that had just been picked and the large peach in the space were cut into pieces, the flesh was sweet and juicy, and after eating a few bites, the dryness brought by the barbecue was eliminated.

"Boss Xiao Li, I'm really convinced of you, the things in the bun shop are delicious, and the things at home are also delicious, it's like the activity base of the Food Association." Su Yao was amazed.

"I just like to eat, so I put a little more thought into it. It's not as exaggerated as you say. Li Youran smiled and said a few words modestly.

"By the way, Ranzi, this is a gift for you." Ling Wanru said, taking a handbag.

"Oh, what is it?" Li Youran took it, opened the bag and looked inside.

"It's nothing, just two bottles of red wine and a few packets of nuts. Australian specialties are not necessarily to your appetite, that is what it means. Ling Wanru said.

"It's good, I heard that Australian red wine is of first-class quality, and I like it." Li Youran happily accepted it.

Everyone packed up the barbecue utensils together, and then went to the prepared guest room on the first floor for a lunch break.

In the afternoon, Li Youran took them to Mingcui Lake to pedal boats and visited most of the lake area.

Dinner was relatively light, mainly multigrain porridge and a few side dishes, but everyone still ate with relish. Understandingly, he didn't follow up to join in the fun, and went to the community together.

Walking on the brick road by the lake, the autumn evening breeze brings a cool and refreshing feeling.

After parting for many days, both of them seemed to have a lot to say, but they suddenly didn't know where to start

After walking quietly for five minutes, Li Youran took the lead in breaking the silence, he talked about the development of the bun shop in the past few months, talked about the development of new delicacies in the same way, and the interesting stories of Xiaoying's sister, Fang Chenghuzi, Luo Fatzi and other people around him. …,

Ling Wanru asked a few questions, listened with interest for a while, and talked about her study in Melbourne, as well as Australian customs, anecdotes and so on.

On the long lakeside path, the two unconsciously came to the end, so they began to go back.

The faint fragrance came from her side, and Li leisurely plucked up her courage and held her slender jade hand.

There is a wonderful-sensation of softness, delicacy and warmth in the palm of your hand, which is intoxicating.

Ling Wanru was slightly startled, her face flushed, and she instinctively wanted to pull her hand out, Li Youran used a little force, and after struggling with that hand a few times, she stopped moving and let him hold it.

The two stopped talking, and walked quietly, as if they could hear each other's heartbeats.

If only there was no end to this road, Li leisurely thought.

Unfortunately, no matter how long the road is, there is an end to it, and the sky is getting darker, and the street lamps are lit up in turn, and it doesn't take long for them to return to the ramp steps near Courtyard No. 76.

Ling Wan was afraid of being seen by the two female companions, so she hurriedly broke free of her hand.

Li Youran smiled, and had no choice but to let her.

Ling Wanru lowered her head and walked into the courtyard, the door of the small building was open, and Su Yao and Fang Xiaoman had already returned.

"Yo, you two can really go shopping, it's getting dark. There's so much to say, huh? Su Yao stood at the door, looking at the two of them with a strange expression.

"Go, you're poor, you can't eat so much grilled fish." Ling Wanru scolded her and went back to her room.

"What, you watch TV by yourself, the fruit is on the coffee table, you are free. I go to the study to surf the Internet, and I can do anything to tell me. Li leisurely took a look and went upstairs to the study.

"What's the matter, isn't it just talking about an object, what age is it, as for making it so mysterious? It's corny. Su Yao muttered dissatisfiedly. It's three, so naturally it's not a big deal. Come and watch the TV. Fang Xiaoman patted the sofa seat and beckoned her over.

"Xiaoman, why do you say that about me, do you think I am willing." Su Yao walked over and angrily pushed Fang Xiaoman's shoulder.
