Chapter 2 Section 26 Go to the barbecue
Another quiet few days.
Chengshan had already figured it out, no longer entangled in how to get along with Runying, he felt that it was good to go with the flow, and he also made a small attempt.
He won a lottery second prize!
Of course, this is definitely not good luck, it was he who played a little trick and didn't win the first prize because he didn't want to be too conspicuous.
That night, while watching the live TV broadcast of the lottery draw, he emitted spiritual power. He felt that with each ball, the spiritual power he needed to send out would increase accordingly. On the penultimate ball, he no longer emitted spiritual power, and let the colored ball roll freely. So he only hit the numbers of the first few balls, and the last ball didn't match, so he won a second prize.
"That's enough!"
The next day, Chengshan went to the lottery center to redeem the prize.
He told Shao Hui the news of winning the lottery, and of course Shao Hui was very excited. But he wondered, why didn't Chengshan win the first prize?
"That would be too conspicuous. ”
"You're just too timid!" However, Shao Hui immediately thought about how to spend the prize.
"Isn't it time for a treat? You can have a bonfire in the small farm on the top of the mountain!"
Chengshan also had this intention, he wanted to invite friends from the dormitory to get together before graduation, and by the way, he would satisfy Shaohui's idea.
"Who do you think would be the right invite?"
"Runying and Yueting must be invited. Shao Hui first talked about the key characters.
"There are also Xie Junyan, Sun Ruxue and Zhao Chongye, and the three of them are my high school classmates. I don't know the others, so you can do it. ”
"Now with the addition of myself, there are already seven people, and if you call a few people in the same dormitory, there are almost ten people. ”
Chengshan wanted to arrange it this way, but it was wishful thinking, and the two people in the same dormitory happened to have something to do.
"I'm going to wait for my girlfriend's call. Tianheng was a little helpless, because the remnants of the last eavesdropping incident had not completely subsided, and he didn't dare to go out and run around at night, so he had to be quiet and on call. If his girlfriend hears a particularly noisy voice around him, it will definitely not pass.
"I have something to do at night, and I can't go. Everyone was curious, but given that he had been busy with topics recently, they didn't care.
"I can go with you. "Chengkang has nothing to do now, no need to think about it, no need to take care of it, as long as he is happy. When he heard that Chengshan invited everyone to hold a small bonfire party at the top of the mountain, of course he happily accepted the invitation.
How is the party organized and what is the process? Chengkang couldn't be more familiar, but he didn't like the kind of very polite theatrical performances, and preferred the party of eating and drinking at will.
Now there are eight people participating, four men and four women, and the match is also appropriate. Runying and Chengkang are fellow countrymen, Yueting and Shaohui are cousins, Ru Xue and Chongye are boyfriend and girlfriend, and four of them are still high school classmates. In this way, everyone is more or less related, and it won't be too awkward to be together.
The process of the party has also been thought out, that is, "eat and drink". All the invitees were very satisfied with the plan and began to make preliminary preparations.
Chengshan and Chengkang went to the small farm on the mountain to book a site and have a brief look at the existing facilities and equipment.
Chongye, Junyan and Ru Xue went together to buy raw beef and mutton and chicken wings, seafood and some hot pot stews. Of course, this is all Chengshan's money.
Runying, Yueting and Shaohui went together to buy drinks and drinks, fruits and vegetables and snacks, and prepared a lot of charcoal. Because, Cheng Shan inquired, there was a barbecue stove and a steel drill in that farmhouse.
On Saturday afternoon, everything was in place.
Chongye and Shaohui drove all the supplies down the mountain path to the mountain, and the owner of the farmhouse looked very surprised.
"You've got so many things to prepare, do you want to live here?"
A few people laughed when they heard this, and they began to prepare separately.
There was ready-made firewood in the farmhouse, and the boys piled a pyre in the middle of the yard and set up a pot on it, pouring half a pot of mountain spring water.
In the main room of the three north rooms of the farmhouse, there is a large round table that can be used for dinner, and there is a fire in the house, which is very warm. The west room is the kitchen with two cauldrons. They don't need to cook here, but they do have all the tools on the cutting board and the utensils to come in handy.
The theme of the party is eating and drinking, so "eating" is the main event. It is subdivided into barbecue and stewing, so it is simply divided into barbecue combination and stewing combination.
Chengkang barbecue is very good, when at home, often go to the mountains with friends to barbecue. The things he baked were fragrant, tender, and very tasty. Therefore, Chengkang took the initiative to ask to be in charge of the barbecue, and also invited Shao Hui to accompany him, and the two of them prepared to have a barbecue competition.
Chengkang and Shaohui are already familiar with each other, and when he sees this boy who calls him a handsome guy in the restaurant, he thinks it is very interesting to be humorous, and he will be very happy to work together. And both of them are now single, and if there is a barbecue competition, it will not hurt if the grill is not good, and no girlfriend will know.
Runying and Yueting naturally want to accompany these two boys.
Runying and Chengkang are fellow countrymen, and their tastes are relatively similar, not as heavy as the taste of roasted in the north. Yue Ting would accompany Shao Hui, who was his cousin, and she thought this cousin was really interesting. This is the first time she has been with her cousin without her elders, and she wants to see what kind of state this cousin is in private? Moreover, she also has lingering feelings about Shao Hui's pursuit of Runying, and she also wants to know how things will develop.
The other combination is a relatively simple task, which is to put the cut ingredients in a large pot and simmer until they are rotten and fragrant. Of course, this is not without technical repetitive work, the degree of raw and cooked food is different, some things are put too early and will be cooked too badly, and others will need to be cooked a little longer. Therefore, it is necessary to grasp the order and proportion of all ingredients in the pot.
Jun Yan and Ru Xue seemed to be full of confidence, and they felt that it should not be a problem to cook this pot of things. Moreover, they are ingenious and skillful, and it is very simple to handle all kinds of ingredients.
Of course, Chongye wanted to accompany Ru Xue, but he was thinking about Li Runying in his heart. He really wants to participate in the barbecue competition, but he still needs to carry a lot of things here. Therefore, he moved quickly and wanted to finish moving as soon as possible. Chengshan is also in this group, he accompanies Junyan, wanting to see what tricks this girl will play. And Chengshan deliberately avoided Runying, I don't know what Shaohui will do.
A group of interesting people just split up and went about their jobs.
The night slowly fell, and a bend of the moon hung quietly in the sky.
The bonfire in the courtyard had been lit, and the flames licked the bottom of the black pot, and the water in the pot was bubbling and slowly wafting the aroma of food. On the barbecue grill next to it, Shao Hui and Chengkang are competing to see who can grill better. Of course, Runying supports his fellow countryman, giving him some pointers on the side, and at the same time helping to hand over various condiments.
Yue Ting and Shao Hui were very busy. Shao Hui is the first time to barbecue in the wild, although he often goes to eat skewers, but the level of barbecue is not very good, either chewing raw or burnt bite. Seeing him in a hurry, Yue Ting didn't forget to tease him beside her.
Jun Yan and Ru Xue have already processed all the ingredients and are putting them in the cauldron in order. Chongye saw that he was almost busy here, so he walked to the barbecue grill and watched the two boys play. When he saw Shao Hui in a hurry, he was about to lose. Chongye rolled up his sleeves and joined Shaohui's group, he must help his high school classmates win back face, and at the same time, he also wanted to show himself in front of Runying.
Chengshan continued to deliver ingredients to the pot according to Junyan and Ru Xue's request. Seeing the food tumbling up and down in the cauldron, the three of them were very happy, and there was a full sense of accomplishment in their hearts. Jun Yan chatted with Chengshan from time to time, and she also wanted to know the origin of the jade pendant.
Chengshan understood, it turned out to be this jade pendant that attracted Jun Yan's attention.
