Chapter 132 You are different from other girls
Anyone could tell that the words were meant to send the guests off. Zhou Ruoyu couldn't help feeling a little regretful that a good meal was ruined by Lai Yunlong.
"I'm a little hungry, why don't you teach me how to bake."
Thunder rumbled from the sky. This Public Security Officer Xu must have lost his mind. Couldn't he hear the words of kicking people out?
Zhou Shufen rolled up her sleeves to break the awkward atmosphere: "Ahaha, I'll do it. My old Zhu can drink three bowls of chicken soup in a row."
"It's okay, I'll do it." Lu Xiaohua pursed her lips tightly, picked up the whole chicken that had already been marinated and walked towards the clay oven.
"Then, let me help you light a fire." Xu Zhe still had a silly look on his face as if he couldn't understand the situation, which made Zhou Shufen shake her head repeatedly.
Zhou Ruoyu called Zhou Shufen from the kitchen: "Sister Zhou, come and help me check the saltiness."
Zhou Shufen then withdrew her gaze from the two of them, wiped her hands, and went into the kitchen.
"You're stupid." Zhou Ruoyu continued working, her eyes drifting through the window to the two people busy in front of the clay stove. "Can't you see that Comrade Xu has some intentions?"
"...But, but what that bastard Lai Yunlong said just now, any man can stand it... And Comrade Xiao Xu is so good."
Of course, we can't blame her. Zhou Shufen's brain belongs to this era. How could a woman who is not a virgin marry better?
"He didn't leave, which means he doesn't mind that too much. What's important between a man and a woman is the relationship. If the relationship is good, the children born will be beautiful."
Her words were unintentional, but they made Zhou Shufen silent.
Seeing that she remained silent, Zhou Ruoyu looked at her in confusion: "What's wrong, Sister Zhou?"
"What's the problem between you and Captain Lu? I think your relationship is better than other couples. Why is there no news? Ding Peipei's birthday is just a few days later than mine."
Zhou Shufen frowned and thought hard, looking miserable as if she was unable to solve a difficult problem.
I really want to give myself a big slap in the face. Why did I mention the child for no reason, causing Zhou Shufen, who is always urging people to give birth, to start again.
"We have to speed up the process. Please help me pick the vegetables. You have to go to the factory with me this afternoon, and you have to help me control the quality. Neither of us can slack off."
Fortunately, there is still one thing that can influence Zhou Shufen, so she quickly uses her trump card.
Sure enough, Zhou Shufen perked up when she heard that, straightening her back and saying, "Don't worry, I will never let anyone say that the quality of our clothes is not good!"
The two people in the room were working silently, and so were the two people in the yard.
"It smells so good! Xiaohua, your cooking skills are really extraordinary. I've never seen a whole chicken roasted like this before."
Xu Zhe tried to break the awkwardness and kept chatting her up.
"You don't have to be so quiet to make conversation. I don't have anything to say."
Lu Xiaohua was finally forced into a corner and snorted coldly.
The fire in the stove had gone out long ago, and the chicken was cooked through by relying on the residual heat of the clay stove. The smell of the cooked chicken wafted out from the mouth of the clay stove, and Xu Zhe couldn't help swallowing.
"You are very brave. Unlike many girls, you have your own charm."
Xu Zhe squinted his eyes and looked at the chicken in the clay oven, and said these words to Lu Xiaohua in a neither light nor heavy tone.
Her eyelashes fluttered a few times, and Lu Xiaohua stood up: "Then you watch it, I'll go see what's going on in the kitchen."
She did not go back to the kitchen, but went straight back to her west room, closed the door, and held her chest to ensure that her heart would not jump out.
After a long time, she calmed herself down and reopened the door.
Outside the door, Zhou Ruoyu was looking at her with a faint smile: "Go and call Comrade Xu to start the meal, he deserves this meal!"
Zhou Ruoyu is also a good cook. She made braised pork and eggs, stir-fried shredded pork and vegetables, and finally served the roast chicken that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Daya and Erya were looked at with a sullen face by Zhou Shufen and did not dare to sit at the table.
It was Xu Zhe who spoke up and said, "It's more fun when the children eat together. Let's eat together."
There were six of them in total, four adults and two children. They ate the meal without saying a word because it was so delicious!
Xu Zhe licked the chicken bones that he had gnawed very cleanly again before he stopped!
Finally, after hearing Xu Zhe's barely perceptible burp, Zhou Ruoyu put down her chopsticks and said with a smile, "How's it going? Xiaohua's cooking skills are pretty good, right?"
Xu Zhe pursed his lips and said, "It's not just okay, it's like a chef's. I've never eaten such delicious chicken in my life."
"Hey, I'm not happy when you say that. I see you've eaten a lot of the braised pork and eggs I made, so why don't you praise me?"
This caused a burst of laughter from the others. Xu Zhe blushed and scratched his head: "It's delicious, it's delicious..."
After lunch, Xu Zhe left, and Zhou Ruoyu and Zhou Shufen rushed to the factory again. After all, this was the first big order since they took over Luancheng Garment Factory, and they could not afford any mistakes.
By the time we got home, it was dark.
Lu Xiaohua made a bowl of noodles for her and Zhou Shufen respectively. After eating them while they were still hot, they felt much more at ease.
It was not until she lay down on the bed and stretched her sore legs and waist that she remembered Lu Qinchuan.
Think about it, he hasn't been home for a week, which is the longest time they have been apart since they got married.
I really miss the time a few decades later when mobile phones were everywhere and I could not sleep and would make phone calls or video calls. It would not be as uncomfortable as it is now.
This week was truly a rare and fulfilling one. They discussed the factory, moved equipment, tore Su Yujie apart, and drove Lai Yunlong away... After traveling through time, her life became even more exciting. Fortunately, she was young and could withstand the hardships...
What she couldn't bear to toss was her eyelids. After thinking about all sorts of things, she finally closed her eyes in a daze.
The next day, she was woken up by the glaring sunlight on her face. She must have gotten up late.
She wanted to get up, but her whole body was sore, her head was dizzy, and her throat was dry. She wanted to drink some water but didn't even have the strength to reach the cup on the table.
Lu Xiaohua just heard the noise and walked in: "Why is your face so red? What's wrong with you?"
She reached out and touched her forehead: "Oh my God, why do you have a fever? I thought you were sleeping soundly so I didn't call you. I'll take you to the hospital."
In this state, I definitely can’t do anything and can only go to the hospital.
The military hospital was also an acquaintance. When Nurse Xiaolin saw Lu Xiaohua walking in with Zhou Ruoyu, her round face turned pale with shock. "Sister Xiaoyu, why are you so feverish? Come and sit down. I'll call Director Wang for you."
Director Wang walked in with a sullen face, looked around, and said, "Get an IV drip. It's easy to catch a cold during the transition from autumn to winter. Colds like yours are very common right now. You're feeling weak all over and have a persistent high fever."
Now she just hopes to get better soon. Not to mention being on an IV drip, she would have to endure even if she had surgery.
It seems like the common cold is really spreading, and the hospital where we are getting IV drips is crowded.
Nurse Xiaolin said to her with an embarrassed look on her face, "Sister Xiaoyu, most of the patients who come here for IV drips are children, and the wards are almost full. I guess you'll have to stay in the hall."
What's the big deal? As an adult, she can't compete with a child for a bed. She nodded and sat on the bench in the hall to receive the IV.
The IV drip was really helpful. Soon she felt that her mind was not as confused as before, and she could open her eyelids.
The moment she opened her eyes, she saw a very familiar figure - Lu Qinchuan!
