450 Who Said That A Dou Can't Help (Seeking Monthly Pass)
Xu Erniang and Xu Dalang were already waiting outside the living room. Seeing everyone coming, Xu Dalang reluctantly showed a kind smile.
The three Zhao Bei brothers all shuddered, expressing that they were not used to such a kind General Xu.
Xu Erniang is the best at managing her own personality and watching everyone gently.
People who were swept by her gaze were unconsciously respectful and did not dare to make mistakes.
Tables have been set up in the living room, one long table for each person, the three Xu Yue brothers and sisters are in the middle, and the rest are arranged on both sides of the hall, with five tables on the left and right.
Because Zhao Yu's eldest son did not come, another card was removed.
Food has been placed on the table, and each table has a small stove that boils water and a wooden bucket, which gives off a hint of coolness.
In addition to the wooden barrel and stove, there is an empty sea bowl and a plate of cut ice watermelon.
"Everyone, sit down. Let's eat some watermelon to relieve the heat. After the water boils, we can start dinner." Xu Yue said with a smile.
"Mom, it's watermelon~" the two grandsons of Zhao Yu's family said in low voices to their mother in surprise.
The eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhao family quickly glanced at the main seat and saw that the three Xu Yue brothers and sisters were not paying attention. Then she smiled at her two sons and told them to be more reserved.
But how can you be so reserved?
Zhao Adou sat across from the two of them, washed his little hands, and knowing that he only had a share of the large plate in front of him, he couldn't wait to pick up the cut watermelon and immersed himself in it.
The sound of "snoring, snoring" came, and the two grandsons of Zhao Yu's family looked at each other, ignored their mother's instructions, and each picked a piece.
Originally, they just wanted to eat in small bites, which didn't violate their mother's instructions too much.
But watermelon is not satisfying enough if you eat it in small bites, so you have to take a big bite to enjoy it.
The last time the brothers ate watermelon was the year before last.
That summer Qi Zhou went to Yuyang as an envoy, and when he came back he brought a cart full of watermelons.
It's a pity that when the family was divided, the two brothers only had a small piece left.
But it was this small piece that made the brothers miss it to this day.
Now a large plate of watermelon was placed in front of them, which was still chilled. They couldn't control the greed in their bodies at all.
The voice of "Hululu~" came from beside her, and the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhao family looked back, feeling anxious and distressed.
However, seeing that the leader of the Xu family was eating voraciously, no one seemed to care about him at all, and the mother and son gradually let go.
When eating melon, no one talks, everyone just immerses themselves in eating.
It wasn't until the water on the stove boiled that everyone stopped in embarrassment.
Zhang Fei said with a silly smile: "I have been waiting for this melon for a year, and finally got it. Chief, please don't laugh at us."
Xu Yue shook her head to express her casualness, then stood up, walked behind the pillar, and took out a box of instant noodles.
Xu Dalang came down and put a bag in front of him.
"Is this instant noodles?" Zhao Adou touched the plastic packaging bag, very surprised, and wanted to open the bag.
Zhao Bei scolded: "Don't be rude!"
"Oh~" Zhao Adou was still a little afraid of his father, so he retracted his little paw angrily.
Xu Yue picked up the package of spicy beef noodles in her hand and showed everyone how to eat instant noodles.
"Tear open the packaging bag. There is a small seasoning packet inside. Take it out first, put the dough in a bowl, and then heat the water... The hot water must cover the dough, but don't cover it too much, otherwise it will taste bad.
It just faded away..."
"Finally, add the seasoning packet, cover the bowl with a plastic bag, wait three minutes, and you're ready to eat..."
Everyone saw the novelty and imitated Xu Yue's steps carefully, making their own instant noodles.
A unique fragrance filled the air, fragrant and pungent. Zhao Adou sneezed, and the spicy smell of chili oil hit his nose.
"Be careful. If you get spicy oil, wipe your hands first and don't rub your eyes." Xu Yue reminded.
"Gulu!"
Zhang Fei and Zhang Yun couldn't control themselves. They were so greedy by the fragrance that they swallowed their saliva. They counted the time in their minds and looked forward infinitely to the moment when the lid was opened.
Just by smelling the smell, they had already foreseen how delicious this instant noodles would be.
Children who have never tasted spicy food can't stand the spiciness, but adults like Zhao Yu drink tea soup all year round, so the spiciness doesn't have much impact on them.
Finally, amidst everyone's expectations, three minutes arrived.
Everyone followed Xu Yue and took away the plastic bag and stirred it twice with chopsticks. The elastic dough was completely soaked and very elastic.
"Gulu~" Zhang Fei swallowed again.
He decided not to pretend to be reserved anymore and picked up the chopsticks, "I'll try it first!"
"Bi Liu" is a big mouthful. Everyone looked at him and asked: How is it?
Two seconds later, Zhang Fei gave a thumbs up: "Fragrant!"
After just saying this word, he couldn't spare any time. He focused on the spicy beef noodles in front of him and was sweating all over the food.
Fresh, spicy, spicy... a variety of flavors bloom on the tip of the tongue, making people want to stop.
Everyone was already salivating at the delicious taste of the noodles. Seeing Zhang Fei's appearance, they were not polite and picked up the noodles in front of them and started eating.
After the first bite, I was out of control.
Zhao Adou and his children were not very good at eating spicy food. Their faces turned red but they refused to stop. They stuck out their tongues and stuffed noodles into their mouths. In the end, they drank so much that not even the soup was left.
However, for children who have never eaten chili peppers, the mild spiciness of modern people is still too spicy for them. The two grandsons of Zhao Adou and Zhao Yu's family choked to tears.
"There is iced Coke in the barrel, and there are cups on the table. Let's pour it ourselves." Halfway through the meal, Xu Yue remembered that she had prepared Coke and hurriedly greeted her.
After saying that, he took a glass for himself, drank it in one gulp, burped with bubbles, and felt satisfied.
The three brothers Zhao Bei were excited, there is such a good thing!
When they opened the small wooden barrel, they saw that it was dark and dark. It was the fairy water that they had tasted and then they thought about it for a long time.
"Master Zhao, this is a good thing, you have to try it." Zhao Bei said strongly.
Zhao Yu took a sip of the cup and his eyes widened in surprise, probably because he felt the bubbles in his mouth that went straight to his forehead.
Mrs. Zhao and the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhao family are not used to this strange taste.
The two grandsons of the Zhao Yu family also thought the taste was a bit strange, but they soon discovered that if they shook it before drinking, the bubbles disappeared, and the sweet taste was more appetizing.
Zhao Adou is indeed a child who grew up in Xujiazhuang. His taste is exactly the same as that of Xu Yue. He can't put down his love for sparkling Coke.
Even if my stomach is full, I still want another drink.
The amount Xu Yue prepared for everyone was not much, just two cups per person, and it was served with ice.
Zhao Adou still wanted it, but Xu Yue refused unceremoniously.
"In the frontier fortress, this is something that only the bravest soldiers can drink. When you make great achievements in the future, I will keep it for you to drink as much as you can!" Xu Yue said jokingly.
Zhao Adou took it seriously, with a very serious face, "Sister Yue, do you mean what you say?!"
"I want to drink ten cups. No, I want to drink a hundred cups?"
Xu Yue was startled, then nodded, "Of course."
Zhao Adou's fighting spirit was instantly ignited.
Looking at his determined little face, Xu Yue thought to herself, who said Adou couldn't help him?
