Chapter 128 Let Xiaohua make 2 signature dishes!
"Has the human trafficker been caught?"
Lu Xiaohua and Zhou Ruoyu spoke at the same time. Although they had nothing to do with this case, Lu Xiaohua was targeted by Xu Zhe because of the human trafficking incident.
Xu Zhe nodded gently, his eyelashes trembling slightly. "I have to thank Comrade Lu Xiaohua for scolding me that day. That's why I changed my original surveillance method and, together with my master and others, I wiped out the human traffickers' lair in one fell swoop!"
Hearing that the public security officer had given her such a high accusation, Lu Xiaohua couldn't help but feel a little cocky: "If you hadn't wronged me, I wouldn't bother to argue with you. Besides, my name is not Lu Xiaohua, I'm Lu Xiaohua!"
Xu Zhe nodded, and then said: "If you have anything else to do, I will leave first."
"Hey, what's the rush? Catching the traffickers is a good thing. It also clears Xiaohua of her grievances. Let's eat at home today. Xiaohua is an amazing cook, so let her make two of her signature dishes!"
You know, Xu Zhe brought two buckets of malted milk! In this day and age, malted milk is not an ordinary thing, it is quite precious! Most people can't afford to buy it, let alone drink it.
If it is used as an apology, the sincerity is absolutely full and no one can find fault with it.
In addition, Zhou Ruoyu actually had a little selfish motive.
She understood that their garment factory was still very weak, and it would obviously be far from enough to rely solely on the strength of the Luancheng Textile Factory.
Only by attracting as many social forces as possible can the garment factory continue to grow and develop.
As for Xu Zhe, even though he was only a minor public security officer, Zhou Ruoyu saw a strong sense of justice in him. This kind of person was definitely a good friend worth continuing to make close friends with.
When Xu Zhe heard Zhou Ruoyu say this, he raised his head, looked at Lu Xiaohua nervously, and asked softly, "Is it okay?"
Lu Xiaohua rolled his eyes at Zhou Ruoyu first, then sighed: "This is her home, and I am also living under someone else's roof. Whatever she says is what counts."
Just as she was about to turn around, she pouted and asked Xu Zhe, "What do you like to eat?"
Xu Zhe scratched the back of his head sheepishly, revealing his rare white teeth. "It just so happens that I've been on missions these days and haven't had a single bite of meat. It would be great if I could have some braised pork."
Lu Xiaohua snorted, "I thought we'd order some delicious food, but it turns out the police officers also eat braised pork."
Zhou Ruoyu knew her character very well. She was not accurate in big matters and could not figure out small matters. When she saw that she had nothing to do, she started to show off her sharp tongue again.
Zhou Ruoyu slapped his forehead and said, "Red-braised pork, right? We're out of meat at home. I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some!"
Xu Zhe felt even worse, and reached out to stop her, saying, "Don't be polite, sister-in-law. If you don't have any, forget it. I'll just eat whatever's at home. I'm not picky about food."
"How can this be? You're a guest, and the host of this house is Captain Lu. How can you not even have a meal of braised pork when you come to Captain Lu's house?"
Zhou Ruoyu took out the meat tickets and money from the drawer and walked out with a smile.
Xu Zhe pursed his lips and said, "How about I go buy some and then see what I like to eat and ask Xiaohua to cook it?"
Lu Xiaohua suddenly felt that Xu Zhe wasn't as shy as he appeared. He wanted to add a few more dishes right away? And, instead of calling her Comrade Lu or Comrade Xiaohua, he followed Zhou Ruoyu's example and called her Xiaohua?
Zhou Ruoyu thought for a moment and said, "That's fine! Xiaohua, take these meat coupons and money and follow Comrade Xu. Don't let Comrade Xu spend money, but don't save money for me."
Lu Xiaohua looked at Zhou Ruoyu in disbelief. Zhou Ruoyu even winked and winked at her. Lu Xiaohua didn't notice at all that her eyes were filled with chicken feathers. The only thing he could see was: just follow us quickly!
It was not appropriate to ask any more questions in front of Xu Zhe. Seeing that it was almost time to cook, she could only nod.
Xu Zhe pushed over the 28-inch bicycle and patted the back seat: "Xiaohua, you sit first!"
Lu Xiaohua sat in the back seat as instructed. Xu Zhe pushed the car with his legs and it drove away steadily from the Lu family's gate.
Watching the two leave, Zhou Ruoyu's mouth curled up slightly. She wiped her hands and went back to the kitchen to cook some rice.
Lu Xiaohua was not fat, and sitting in the back seat did not cause any burden to Xu Zhe. Instead, he pedaled more and more vigorously, as if he had endless brute force.
Because of his strength, the supply and marketing cooperative arrived in less than five or six minutes. Lu Xiaohua jumped out of the car and asked him, "Besides meat, what else do you want to eat?"
Xu Zhe licked his lips, as if remembering a delicious dish, and said shyly, "I also want to eat chicken. Is this too much trouble?"
Wow, he says what he wants to eat first and then says polite words. This man is so good!
Lu Xiaohua said, "Okay, let's buy a chicken, but my sister-in-law and I don't dare to kill it, so you have to do it."
"No problem!" Xu Zhe smiled happily, like a fool with low IQ!
Lu Xiaohua glared at his back and followed him to the place where meat and chicken were sold.
The military dependents in the army were divided into several places, but places like schools, supply and marketing cooperatives, and hospitals were relatively concentrated. It was impossible for there to be small grocery stores and vegetable stores everywhere like in the future.
Xu Zhe pointed to a large, plump rooster with a red crown and asked her, "Xiaohua, what do you think of that one?"
Lu Xiaohua nodded. There were many people in the supply and marketing cooperative, and she had worked as a salesperson in the electrical appliance area for a while. She didn't want to waste her time arguing with others.
Murphy's Law is not without reason. What you fear in your heart will come true. Soon, an acquaintance saw her, and this acquaintance was very unusual. It was Su Hongmei!
"Hey, isn't this Xiaohua?" Su Hongmei patted Lu Xiaohua's shoulder heavily from behind.
Lu Xiaohua's heart suddenly jumped: I'm so damn unlucky, how could I meet this woman!
Helplessly turning around, he smiled awkwardly: "Sister Hongmei, what a coincidence, I came to buy some vegetables!"
Su Hongmei is dressed very fashionably today. She wears a pair of straight-leg pants that are popular in the streets and a short red sweater on the upper body. This outfit makes her look very energetic and full of youthful vitality.
Her eyes seemed to inadvertently sweep over Xu Zhe who was standing next to Lu Xiaohua, with a barely perceptible smile on the corner of her mouth.
Her voice was slightly teasing as she said, "Oh, I haven't seen you in a while! Your foot injury must have healed by now, right? You even came out to buy groceries with your friends today!"
Of course, it was obvious that she had something bad in mind, so Lu Xiaohua didn't respond in a good way: "Yes, Sister Hongmei, you are still at work, right? Go get busy first."
Nowadays, chickens are rarely slaughtered and taken away; most chickens are sold alive. Xu Zhe saw the salesperson tie up the live chicken, took it, and said, "Xiaohua, let's go."
"Wait!" Su Hongmei immediately smelled something different. "Hey man, what did you call her?"
"No need for him to introduce me. Let me tell you, Sister Hongmei, my name is now Lu Xiaohua. Xiao means dawn, and Hua means China. I have completely bid farewell to the past!"
Su Hongmei was silent for a moment, and then a trace of worry flashed across her face: "Xiaohua, I'm not saying anything to you, but why don't you discuss everything you do with your brother Yunlong? You two are a perfect couple!"
