The fish Jiang Ning caught was very big. When Aunt Gu returned to her hometown, Xue Yuantong felt that she and Jiang Ning might not be able to finish it.
It's just that the atmosphere has reached this point. She has to eat fish for lunch and can't leave it until tomorrow.
Being happy alone is not as good as being happy together. Xue Yuantong sent several photos of big catfish to Xue Chuchu on his mobile phone:
"Chu Chu, my general Jiang Ning has made great achievements today."
"Come to my house for dinner."
As one of her few good friends, Chu Chu, Xue Yuantong was willing to share happiness with her. When she was a child, she often ate food from Chu Chu's family.
Urban area, old houses.
On the balcony, Xue Chuchu was leaning on a wooden chair, with a white blanket wrapped around her legs and a history textbook in her hand.
The white blanket was washed clean and white, and compared with Chu Chu's fair complexion, it just lacked a hint of whiteness.
She planned to read until eleven o'clock at noon, buy some rice to make rice, and fry some shredded potatoes for lunch.
Although her mother Hua Fengmei found a good job, Xue Chuchu knew that making money was not easy and she remained simple.
Children from poor families always take on household chores early, and she can do basic cooking.
Although the New Year has passed and it's February, the temperature is still several degrees below zero. The water in winter is very cold. It's too cold to wash vegetables and it's a torture to cook.
At this time, the mobile phone sounded a notification tone, and Xue Chuchu instinctively panicked.
She doesn't have many QQ friends, she only has Xue Yuantong, Jiang Ning, and a few familiar classmates in the class, and she doesn't usually have many contacts.
Due to the experience of QQ being stolen before the Chinese New Year, the bad guy found the gate of her No. 2 Middle School. She always felt that he would find her sooner or later. Xue Chuchu had been frightened for a long time and was a little scared of the QQ notification sound.
The strange thing is that the pervert seemed to have disappeared during this period and never showed up again.
She opened the screen.
"What a big fish." Xue Chuchu was surprised.
The fish picture Xue Yuantong posted, paired with herself as a comparison, the fish was really big, seventy or eighty centimeters.
Was this caught by Jiang Ning?
Xue Chuchu knew that Jiang Ning was very good at fishing, but it was a bit incredible that such a big fish was caught by Jiang Ning.
She was surprised, but she felt that it was not good to eat rice.
"I won't go, I've already prepared dinner for lunch." Xue Chuchu replied.
Xue Yuantong saw through it at a glance and replied instantly: "Fake, you haven't cooked yet."
Xue Chuchu: "..."
"Come on, Jiang Ning and I are the only ones in my house. He doesn't know how to help me. You can help me subdue this fish when you come here." Xue Yuantong replied.
"Then, okay." Faced with Tongtong's warm invitation, Xue Chuchu agreed. She was not a saint, and she wanted to try a big fish.
Xue Chuchu took off the blanket, spread out the history book, and put it on the table upside down, so that when she came back, she could continue reading along this side.
She straightened her light blue down jacket.
First, I sent a text message to my mother, telling her to go to Tongtong’s house for dinner at noon. I sent this text message because her mother basically doesn’t use WeChat and QQ.
Xue Chuchu’s phone bill package comes with some free text messages every month, just right for sending to your mother.
Before going out, she put on cotton-padded shoes. The cotton-padded shoes were very old-fashioned and not good-looking. Many girls disliked them. The only advantage was that they were warm and would not freeze the feet.
Now wearing it on Xue Chuchu's feet, it has a different look and feel.
She put on a scarf, hugged her helmet, and opened the door.
The aunt opposite the door was holding a garbage bag in her hand.
Xue Chuchu said: "Auntie, I am planning to go out, please help you take me down."
The aunt smiled: "Thank you very much, Chu Chu."
"It's a convenient thing." Xue Chu took the garbage bag and walked down the stairs.
The aunt across the street is from Tu County. She brings her children to study in the city, and she is a mother accompanying her to study.
However, my aunt's husband bought a house in the city. The house is still under construction. In the future, my aunt will move to a new house and get out of this old neighborhood.
When Xue Chuchu went downstairs, she thought of the news that happened in Tu County a year ago. A young man was playing games at home and was injured strangely. When his neighbors found out, they called an ambulance and sent him to the hospital.
I heard that the young man had lost all his fingers. While he was in the hospital, several men from Tu County came to the hospital together, tore the young man from the bed and beat him half to death.
It was said that the young man had seduced their wives.
One of the men who beat him was actually a relative of the young man, and he didn't even spare his relative's wife.
It was an eye-opener for Xue Chuchu and his three views were overturned.
…
The urban area of Yuzhou, a small town, is not that big. The battery car Xue Chuchu rides is not a small battery car with pedals, but a large battery car, which can reach speeds of up to sixty. Xue Chuchu didn't dare to go full speed and only drove to medium speed. At this speed, she arrived at Xue Yuantong's house twenty minutes later.
The door of Xue Yuantong's house was wide open. Xue Chuchu parked the car and entered.
I saw wooden chopping boards placed in the yard.
Jiang Ning was holding a big fish in one hand.
"Chuchu, you are here."
"I'll kill the fish and show you."
Xue Yuantong showed off her newly sharpened kitchen knife. She wore a small apron around her chest and looked like a little cook.
Jiang Ning slapped the fish on the head, knocked it unconscious, and put it on the chopping board.
Xue Yuantong wiped the knife. She looked at the big catfish and gestured. Before killing the fish, she said hypocritically:
"It's not easy for it to grow so big. It must have suffered a lot. I want to release it."
Xue Chuchu suddenly felt that Tongtong was so hypocritical.
She added: "It is impossible to release them all."
"Why don't you release half of them? Jiang Ning, what do you think, am I very kind?"
Jiang Ning said: "You want to release the animals? You can't release the ginger, right?"
Xue Yuantong: "Humph, I won't let you go."
She was small, but she was very fierce when using a kitchen knife, which was beyond Jiang Ning's expectation.
"This piece is braised in soy sauce."
"Here are these, steamed."
"The rest of these, stir-fry!"
Xue Yuantong's arrangement was clear: "Today I will show you what a genius chef is."
noon.
The kitchen is filled with aroma, a table full of fish, a whole fish feast.
Jiang Ning cast a spell on the table to prevent the dishes from getting cold.
Xue Yuantong took off his apron and sat on the small wooden stool. Xue Chuchu served the rice while Jiang Ning took out the warm coconut milk.
Fill everyone's cup.
Xue Yuantong raised the cup and shouted: "Cheers!"
"Bang." The glass made a sound, and the rich coconut milk in the glass swayed slightly.
When Jiang Ning moved his chopsticks, Xue Chuchu picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of hot fish.
Catfish meat is soft, has very few fish bones, and has just the right amount of spices, making it extremely delicious.
The reserved Xue Chuchu almost bit her tongue.
"Tongtong, it's delicious." Xue Chuchu picked up another piece.
"Hahaha, I must be awesome." Xue Yuantong enjoyed the compliment.
"Yeah." When it comes to cooking skills, Xue Chuchu is indeed far inferior to Tongtong.
Jiang Ning ate in silence.
"That's right, let's take pictures."
Xue Yuantong took out her mobile phone. She rarely took pictures. Today was a rare day and she didn't want to miss it.
After taking the photo, I first sent a copy to my mother.
Then she was going to send a copy to Jiang Ning. After thinking about it, forget it, she would keep the photos here anyway, so Jiang Ning could look at them at any time.
Xue Yuantong never worried about Jiang Ning running away. He stamped his seal with himself and said he would never forget her.
Xue Chuchu took the initiative to raise her cup, and through the hot air above the dinner table, she looked at Tongtong, whose face was red, and then at Jiang Ning, who was smiling slightly.
They are my good friends, which is great.
At this moment, Xue Chuchu's mood suddenly became lighter. The heavy studies, the confused future, and the sense of responsibility on her shoulders were all forgotten by her.
She faced the two people's gazes, and a sweet smile bloomed on her cold face:
