Eating melons

Chapter 254 Dinner Party

But Xiao Xuemu was in a miserable situation. He originally had his back to Wei Wei, and Wei Wei fell forward. Xiao Xuemu, with his back to Wei Wei, fell face first onto the ground.

Liu Jiaojiao and Wu Mei who were waiting nearby, as well as Li Zhibin, Jiang Qi and Yu Xi who had just come down, were all stunned when they saw this scene. What was going on?

After being stunned for a while, he burst into laughter. When Wei Wei reacted, she quickly got up and pulled Xiao Xuemu up with her. When Xiao Xuemu got up, his face could no longer be seen because it was covered with snow.

Xiao Xuemu wiped the snow off his face and said helplessly, "Ancestor, I didn't cheat you! That was just an accident. Is it necessary to give such a big gift?"

Wei Wei quickly explained, "It was an accident. It was really an accident. My legs just gave out and I couldn't stand steadily. You have to believe me."

What if Xiao Xuemu misunderstood that she did it on purpose? Wei Wei felt terrible just thinking about it. I hope Xiao Xuemu won’t kill her in the future!

Considering how scared Wei Wei had just been on the road, it was normal for her legs to feel weak.

After all, Wei Wei is timid. You know, she and Jiang Qi thought there was a ghost and were so scared that they knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.

Therefore, it is quite normal that he just stumbled because of being frightened.

Xiao Xuemu thought he was unlucky and sighed helplessly.

Wei Wei, Jiang Qi and Liu Jiaojiao had a lot of fun during the two hours today, but it was not possible for them to play by themselves; they were afraid to do so.

After all, this is a mountain slide, formed naturally, unlike the ski resorts of later generations, which have no obstacles.

There are tree branches everywhere, and they are afraid of flying onto the branches and turning into dried human meat.

It was almost dark when the seven of them headed home, and by the time they got home it was completely dark.

The closer we got, the stronger the aroma of braised meat became in the air. After playing outside for a few hours, we were feeling a little greedy and hungry.

Although they had shoveled the snow clean in the morning, a thin layer of snow continued to fall later.

Seeing the messy footprints at the door, several people understood.

Fortunately, they went out to play, otherwise they would have been blocked by a group of people.

It would be fine if they just came to ask for the marinade, but they had already marinated a whole pot of meat, and they didn't want to use this big pot of meat to test people's hearts.

As soon as Jiang Qi opened the door, a series of people came in.

Before leaving, Li Zhibin shoveled a lot of coal into the stove, so there is still fire inside now.

The room was very warm, and not only warm but also filled with rich fragrance.

Liu Jiaojiao asked curiously, "It's been cooking for so long, it should be cooked, right? It should be ready to eat!"

Wei Wei smiled and said, "The longer you braise it, the more flavorful it becomes. It's cooked now, but the longer you braise it, the more flavorful it will become."

Liu Jiaojiao nodded, not quite understanding what he meant.

Looking at these things and the people in the room, Wei Wei thought of the pile of bones in that room.

In addition to what the two of them bought at the brigade, there were also gifts from Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin, and a large backpack full of them was placed at home.

Wei Wei suggested, "Let's have a meal together tonight! We can cook and eat together, it will be more lively with more people."

When Wei Wei mentioned Xiao Xuemu, she suddenly remembered the two packages he brought back when he came back.

Before coming back, he went to the post office and found packages for himself and Li Zhibin, so he took them back.

But because it was snowing, he didn't want to carry the two packages, so he put them in the space (even if there was no snow, he wouldn't carry it himself). When he came back, so many things happened one after another, so he forgot about the two packages.

He took a look and found that it was sent to him by his uncle and others. If he guessed correctly, there must be a copper pot inside.

After all, he called back last time and asked them to send the copper pot over.

"I forgot so much these days. The copper pot I called back last time has arrived, and I forgot to give it to you. I'll go back and get it."

Hearing this, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi looked at each other, and a hint of understanding flashed in each other's eyes.

They dared to guarantee that Xiao Xuemu definitely did not forget to give it to them, but must have forgotten the package in the space, and after putting it in the space, he forgot about it.

Wei Wei has a deep understanding of this. She and Jiang Qi often put the things they buy but don't finish eating or using into the system backpack, and then forget about it.

I always think of it when I clean out my backpack or when I need to eat or use it.

When Liu Jiaojiao and Yu Xi heard Xiao Xuemu say that they called back just to ask for a copper pot, they were a little surprised, while Wu Mei just sighed that they were all from Beijing, and this was the gap between the rich and the poor.

After a while, Xiao Xuemu came over with two copper pots. Not only did he have copper pots, but he also had a large piece of mutton.

Seeing this, Jiang Qi immediately made a decision, "Let's use the mutton to make the stove today, and save the bones for next time."

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi bought a lot of base ingredients and stored them in cans at home.

Moreover, they were all the same materials that Jiang Qi had already reproduced, so he was not afraid of their suspicion at all.

Xiao Xuemu, Li Zhibin, Yu Xi and Wu Mei are all efficient at work. With these four people around, Wei Wei, Jiang Qi and Liu Jiaojiao have nothing to do.

Look at them, some are washing vegetables, some are cutting vegetables, and some are making fire, everything is in order.

The remaining three people didn't know what to do. They looked at each other.

Seeing this, Liu Jiaojiao had an idea and immediately said, "You guys cook here, and I'll go back and steam the rice for the staple food."

After saying that, she slipped away immediately. Although she was a little unsure about the timing of steaming the rice, it was Yu Xi who was steaming it after all.

But she still had a lot of buns, steamed buns and dumplings, so she just steamed some of them. She knew how to steam them.

Then only Wei Wei and Jiang Qi were left staring at each other in their own home, unable to help at all.

Just ask yourself how it feels to be like a guest in your own home and have no say in the matter?

Wei Wei looked at Jiang Qi awkwardly and said, "Is there anything we can do? This feeling of eating for free is a bit awkward."

Jiang Qi rolled her eyes. "Isn't it embarrassing for you to play next to me while I'm cooking?"

Wei Wei was speechless. "How can that be the same? Didn't you still play beside me while I was cooking?"

Jiang Qi touched his nose and said, "Okay! There's really no need for them to talk so much."

But I'm not that familiar with these people, so it's a bit embarrassing to let them wait here.

"How about we both prepare some drinks?"

"What drink?"

Wei Wei really didn't know what kind of drinks she could prepare in this cold winter or in this era.

"Didn't I buy some pear jelly there a while ago? Let me thaw a few frozen pears.

Also, didn't we steam some glutinous rice wine in the middle of the night because we couldn't sleep a while ago? We can add some brown sugar to that and make a drink."

Speaking of this, Wei Wei also became interested. If Jiang Qi hadn't mentioned it, she would have forgotten about it.

She is not familiar with frozen pears, but she is familiar with glutinous rice wine. Her mother used to make some every Chinese New Year, using rice wine, brown sugar, and red dates to make some sweet wine to drink.

"Can I eat it then?"

Jiang Qi nodded, "Yes."

Although the wine was made of a glass jar, Jiang Qi was afraid that the smell of the wine would spread and attract other people's attention, so he wrapped the jar with several layers of plastic cloth.

Therefore, you cannot smell the aroma of wine outside, even if you get close, just like the two of them did not smell the aroma of wine in the house.

“I smelled it a while ago and it already had a very nice aroma of wine, so it should be edible now.

Wei Wei glanced at the busy crowd and said to Jiang Qi, "Then let's go get some drinks."

Jiang Qi nodded.
