Chapter 185
Shirley chatted with everyone in the living room, while Lu Xiaolu boiled a large pot of boiling water in the kitchen and poured it into a basin, then stewed three meat dishes with the rice cooker and the two-hole gas stove.

In order to save time, I bought a lot of steamed buns today and used the rice cooker to cook the meat, otherwise it would be midnight when the rice is ready.

Lu Xiaolu carried the big rooster to the yard, and directly wiped the neck with a knife. It was so neat that a tuna could be stabbed to death, even a chicken.

"Shirley, help me bring out the boiling water."

"okay."

Throw the bled rooster into a basin of boiling water and scald it for about ten minutes. The chicken feathers can be easily pulled out, and some fine hairs need to be clipped with nails.

The rooster was cleaned up, and the meat in the pot was almost stewed. When the lid was opened, the house was full of fragrance.

Everyone wanted to come to help, but Lu Xiaolu refused, there is no reason to let the guests work.

He put on an apron, put out the braised pork, chopped the rooster into pieces, and put them in together with the mushrooms.

Once the meat is ready, the vegetarian dishes will be fried quickly. They are all cut in the afternoon, and they can be fried directly.

The gas stove was turned on to the maximum firepower, and the flames in the kitchen were constantly lit, and a vegetarian dish could be fried in less than 3 minutes.

After he finished one dish, Shirley came in and served one, and the long dining table was gradually filled.

Lu Xiaolu's cooking skills are not bad, and the dishes are shiny and shiny under the light, which is very attractive.

Finally, at 07:30 in the evening, all the dishes were out of the pan, six stir-fried dishes, four stewed dishes, and two soups. The portions were all large, and the pot was full.

Shirley was not idle either, she divided up the tableware and wine glasses, and arranged for the guests to sit down at the same time.

There are two Xiaonan and Xiaobei, two old lady and Xiao Xiao, two Qiu Wei and Huaer, one Kenjiro Sekiguan, one Miko, plus Lu Xiaolu and Xueli, making a total of ten people.

The number of people had already been calculated, and this afternoon I went to the boat to take down the two stools. Ten people filled the dining table and it was very lively.

Two bottles of liquor, one box of beer, and four bottles of drinks, including Coke, Sprite, coconut juice, and orange juice.

Lu Xiaolu wiped his hands, took off his apron, and greeted with a smile on his face: "Drink if you can, and don't force those who can't. Treat yourself like your own home, don't be polite."

"Then you must drink. It's a happy housewarming. How can you do without drinking? Hurry up, donkey, we must have a good drink today."

Qiu Wei is very refined, once he said this, Hua'er couldn't stop him from drinking.

In fact, Hua'er didn't care about him today, a few girls were sitting together and chatting happily, Xiao Xiao couldn't understand, so she held a drink and drank.

After agreeing to treat it as her own, Shirley greeted the old lady and others to start eating, regardless of the people who were drinking.

Four men, Lu Xiaolu, Qiu Wei, Xiaobei, and Sekiguan Kenjiro sat together, and Xiaobei had already poured the wine.

Qiu Wei, who is unreliable, made Xiaobei drink liquor too.

Lu Xiaolu was a little worried, he was still underage.

"Xiao Bei, can you change the beer?"

Xiaobei smiled shyly: "It's okay, little donkey brother, just go back and let Xiaonan ride the bike."

The girls started to eat, and they didn't wait any longer, they raised a glass and greeted everyone to eat.

When it comes to drinking, Qiu Wei said that no one dares to say that he is the second. Not only can he drink, but he can also talk.

One set after another, what four and four are happy, six and six are smooth, and several people are flushed from drinking.

Xiaobei, who is a minor, is really impressive, he is only a little worse than Qiu Wei, neither Lu Xiaolu nor Guan Guanjian is his opponent.

After the old lady waited for the others to eat, Shirley led them around again, watching TV and eating melon seeds in the living room.

The few people who were drinking began to eat.

Once people drink too much, they talk too much. Lu Xiaolu and Xiaobei are fine, so they eat their vegetables, listen to Qiu Wei and Guan Guanjian's bragging, and interject from time to time.

The two talked about everything from rising pork prices to inflation, and then to their views on the tension in Syria.

By the time they finished playing, it was already eleven o'clock, and they were almost sober.

It’s still kept here, according to Qiu Wei, he once shared a case of beer and a plate of peanuts with someone until dawn.

Lu Xiaolu felt very proud when he saw that all the dishes on the table were eaten clean. No one wanted to work hard for a long time and finally didn't even move the dishes.

Today Miko stays at home with Shirley, Xiao Xiao also wants to be here, but she has to go to class tomorrow, so she can only leave reluctantly, Shirley said that she will pick her up next week.

Lu Xiaolu drove everyone back on a bicycle, and at night, if no one took them with them, they would have enough time to go out.

When they reached the main road, Xiaonan Xiaobei and Sekiguan Kenjiro said hello and left. This place is not far from their village, and it takes about ten minutes to get there.

Lu Xiaolu continued to ride the bicycle and led everyone home, Xiao Xiao had already fallen asleep in the arms of the old lady, and the civet cat was hugged by Hua'er.

Qiu Wei drank the most and was still a little confused.

After sending everyone home, Lu Xiaolu went into the house and took a few things, and he planned to come over to pick up the rest tomorrow.

Just as he was about to leave, the old lady stopped him.

"Little donkey, I am also happy for you after you bought a house, old lady, but I will come here more often in the future."

Hua'er helped Qiu Wei into the room and came out. Hearing the old lady's words, she stood aside blankly, obviously a little disappointed.

"Old lady, don't worry, the store you opened is right in front of the school, are you afraid you won't see it?"

Living in this yard for so long, Lu Xiaolu is not a robot, it would be a lie to say that he has no feelings, and he is a little uncomfortable when he moves away suddenly.

Hearing what he said, the old lady and Hua'er were also relieved. That's right, the store is right in front of the school, and they meet more times now than before.

"Then I'll go first?"

"Wait, take this." The old lady took out a wad of money and gave it to him.

Lu Xiaolu was startled.He waved his hands again and again: "Old lady, what are you doing?"

"Refund your rent."

"That won't work. The contract we signed is for one year. I left early, so there is no need to return it."

One year after the rental contract was written, there is absolutely no reason to withdraw the rent.

"Little donkey, I know you have spent all your money buying a house now, otherwise you wouldn't have bought so much furniture."

"Be obedient, keep the money, old lady, I am also a boss now, not bad."

When Shirley led them to visit today, the old lady saw that there were so many unfurnished rooms, so she knew that the two of them had no money, and wanted to put the money into his hands.

In the end, Lu Xiaolu still didn't accept the money, and only said that she would often go to the store to eat in the future, and the old lady had no choice but to give up.

Watching him leave by bike, he sighed and said that he could see it often, but he always felt that there was something missing in this yard.

Hua'er sat in the yard in the middle of the night, and didn't hear the usual sound of sneaking out.
