Chapter Ninety-Six: An Unforgettable Meal
"Heh, you kid, what can I do, what I'm not worried about now is the children, there are several children in the family who are old enough to go to school next year, you see if you have anything to do with it, and wait for the school to start next year to send those children to study." ”
"Okay, Uncle Zhang, leave this matter to me, the school is on winter vacation now, and I'll do it when school starts next year." ”
Listening to the old and the young chatting, the little witch couldn't interject, and she couldn't sit still and got up and said, "Su Xun, Uncle Zhang, you guys talk first, I'll go over and see if Aunt Zhang needs help." ”
After the little witch left, Uncle Zhang came to the spirit and asked, "Tell me the truth, who is this girl?"
"Ahh ”
"Girlfriend? It stands to reason that I, as an elder, shouldn't interfere in the affairs of your young people, but you kid has to remember for me, we can't do illegal and criminal things, I think this girl is not a few years older than our Jin'e, you kid can't make a mistake." ”
The Jin E in Uncle Zhang's mouth is also a child of this orphanage, and she will be almost fourteen years old, how could Su Xun not hear the meaning of Uncle Zhang's mouth, and hurriedly defended: "Look at Uncle Zhang, where do you want to go, she is an adult, she just looks smaller, we are free to love, and we will not do anything excessive." ”
"Well, you just have to know it yourself, so I won't say more. ”
Just as the old and the young were chatting, the Phantom Moon Jasmine also arrived in the kitchen.
In the dim light, she saw that Aunt Zhang was crying while picking vegetables, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Aunt Zhang, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing that it was the little witch who came, Aunt Zhang hurriedly wiped the tears on her face with her sleeve, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's just that you can come, Auntie is a little excited." ”
"Are you really okay?" the little witch asked suspiciously.
"It's really all right, you kid, can I not tell you something? Hey, aren't you sitting in the house? Why are you here?"
"I can't interject when I see their men chatting, so I'm going to come over and help you. As she spoke, the little witch pulled a horse stool and sat down, reaching out to help pick vegetables.
"You kid is quite sensible, to be honest with your aunt, how long have you known Xiao Su?"
"Less than a month. Phantom Moon Mo Xiaoxi replied obediently.
"What do you think of our Xiao Su?" Aunt Zhang asked inquiringly.
"At first, he hated it, but then he thought he was not bad and kind-hearted. ”
Aunt Zhang smiled and said: "You don't know, what he used to be like, he used to be a bastard boy, I remember that it was the first snow that fell this year, this kid didn't know where to drink unconscious and fell on the side of the road, thanks to your Uncle Zhang who came back from shopping for vegetables at night and met him, and pulled him back with a tricycle, otherwise he would have frozen." ”
Phantom Moon Mo Xiaoxi listened attentively, and couldn't help but make up a series of pictures about Su Xun at that time.
Aunt Zhang continued: "When your Uncle Zhang came back, the lights were blind, and there was a person lying on the three wheels, which scared me. ”
"Hahaha, does he still have such a black history?" the little witch laughed.
"Yes, why not, I remember that night your Uncle Zhang watched him with a stick for a night, for fear that he would get up in the middle of the night and go crazy with alcohol, and I also complained that your Uncle Zhang came, and complained that he dared to take anyone to the house. ”
"And then?"
"Later, the next day the boy woke up and was noisy and hungry, so I cooked him a big pot of noodles, and he made them all, and there wasn't much soup left. Aunt Zhang was happy as she spoke.
"Since then, this stinky boy has come every three or five times, and occasionally brings some things, rice, noodles, oil, and so on, and the children have become familiar with him after a long time, and they all regard him as a big brother. ”
In two rooms, two men and two women, chatting on completely different topics, before they knew it, it was time to eat.
Because there was no pot for shabu-shabu, Aunt Zhang simply put the meat leaves and base ingredients into the kitchen cooking cauldron and boiled a large pot, and then the children sat around a large table and waited for the food to be served.
The little witch sensibly picked up a stack of dishes and chopsticks and distributed them to the children, and when the children were all eating hot pot stew, the remaining four people put a small pot of vegetables on the small table and prepared to eat.
At Su Xun's request, there was not much meat in the dish, and the meat was kept for the child.
The four of them sat together, next to the children devouring each other, it was really like a happy dinner for everyone.
Although Uncle Zhang repeatedly asked to have a drink with Su Xun, Su Xun politely refused on the grounds of driving.
During the period, the youngest malt among the children carried a bowl to Su Xun with a young hand, and the child got a few pieces of meat for Su Xun in the bowl, Su Xun was moved for fear of hurting the child, touched the child's head, took the bowl, whether it was hot or not, pulled it into his mouth, and then told him to eat more vegetables, grow his body, and he was not allowed to come over to deliver food.
The sumptuous meal stimulated Su Xun's appetite and began to feast on large pieces.
Happy hour always goes by quickly, after a meal, Phantom Moon Mo Xiaoxi helped to take care of the dishes, chopsticks and tableware, and then distributed a series of things such as clothes, school bags, candy and so on with Aunt Zhang.
Su Xun pulled Uncle Zhang to the hut and closed the door, took out the 4,000 yuan in cash on his body, respectfully took it to Uncle Zhang, and said, "Uncle, seeing that the New Year is about to end, this money is reserved for the children to buy some New Year's goods." ”
"It's... Xiao Su, what are you doing here?" Uncle Zhang hesitated for a moment, then shook his head to block.
"Listen to me, uncle, this is a little bit of my care for the children, now that I am more generous, you can take it, and besides, this money is not for you, it is for the children." ”
After repeated pushing, Uncle Zhang couldn't resist Su Xun, and finally accepted the money.
Seeing that things were almost done, Su Xun led the little witch to say goodbye to the second elder, and the second elder sent the two out of the gate, because the weather was too cold, Su Xun didn't let the children come out.
After getting into the car, the little witch hiccuped, rubbed her stomach and said, "Alas, I ate so much on my first date, stupid, do you want me if I gain weight in the future?"
"Don't!" Su Xun said jokingly as he drove.
"Oh, is it, really?" the little witch looked at Su Xun suspiciously, and as she spoke, she stretched out her hand to Su Xun's rib fork and twisted it.
"Ahh Su Xun could only say mercy.
"That's pretty much it. By the way, what else do you think we can do for the children?" the little witch was satisfied, but she also remembered today's events.
