Lu Beicen turned on the stove, turned on the range hood, waited for the pot to heat up, then poured oil in and started cooking.
Amidst the roar of the range hood, Fang Nan quickly sorted out what Lu Beicen said in his mind. After Lu Beicen finished cooking the lettuce, turned off the fire, and then turned off the range hood, he asked:
"You mean that Li Jiantao regards you as a high-quality marriage partner, and then Director Wu thinks that his motives are impure. Since he thinks so, it is very likely that he has communicated with your parents?"
Lu Beicen handed the light blue disk filled with lettuce to Fang Nan's hand, nodded helplessly and said, "I heard what he said, and after thinking about it, isn't that what he meant?"
"These are not the important points. You have decided to let it go anyway, but the important thing is your parents. How do you explain it?" Fang Nan said helplessly.
Lu Beicen hesitated for a moment before saying: "If they don't ask, I won't tell them. Anyway, Director Wu has already told them about my transfer, which directly illustrates my attitude."
"Xiao Bei, you...hey, forget it, your brother is coming back anyway, so I won't persuade you any more."
"I know what you are going to say, but I really can't help it. Forget it, let's not talk about this. I went to Xiajiang the day before yesterday. My mother made a lot of soy sauce beef for me and asked me to share half of it with you.
."
"Forget it, I want to eat, so I will come directly to your place. By the way, how is Mama Yu's health?"
"It's not bad. They're just minor problems. She didn't say anything about it. I just smelled the smell of plaster on her body."
"Is your mother still angry because Yu's mother gave you money?"
"I think she was either angry or resentful. Later, I asked her to spend money to renovate my house, and her tone seemed to calm her down. Hey, I felt like my mother was forcing me to go home.
I'm just trying to make myself angry. Sometimes I feel sorry for her, but in my heart, I can't always get around that corner."
Fang Nan watched Lu Beicen wash the pots and pondered for a moment before saying: "Xiao Bei, maybe I worked three years earlier than you, and I had such a job that looked at the world's ups and downs. Then I turned around and looked at your mother who sent you away
Regarding human affairs, I really feel that in that era and under such circumstances, it is pitiable. Why don't you try to let it go? I'm not speaking for your mother. I just feel that you are always carrying a shell like this.
too tired……"
Lu Beicen cleaned the cooking pot and pushed Fang Nan out because of the heavy oil smoke.
Fang Nan looked at Lu Beicen's back and sighed slightly. There were some thorns in his chest that he couldn't pull out or swallow, which made him helpless.
Lu Beicen didn't know that if she didn't let go of some things, she would not be the only one who would be sad. Her parents had faced her with a gesture of atonement since the day they brought her home, but those
How can the scars of the past be filled by the prosperous life in front of us?
Turning on the range hood again, Lu Beicen used a flat-bottomed frying pan to turn on a low heat, fried the fish pieces that her adoptive mother Yu Guoqin had marinated for her, then used the wok to fry beef with pepper sauce, and finally washed Fang Nan.
Beans, fried with olives, two meat and two vegetables were served, the rice was ready, and Chen Ke came back from the shower.
Chen Ke stood at the entrance and held up the two bags in his hands, and played some background music: "Dong dong dong dong, Xiajiang sauce duck, lychee beer, how do you like it, are you hungry?"
Fang Nan took the bag and said, "It's been a long time since I've eaten Jiangjiang duck. I'd like to take advantage of you."
Lu Beicen took the sauced duck and went to the kitchen to change the knife and heat it in the microwave. He heard Chen Ke shouting in the dining room: "The point is this lychee beer, okay. This is specially prepared for you two female heroes."
, let someone purchase it from outside."
Fang Nan looked pained: "The shipping cost is more expensive than beer, right?"
"Look what you said, young master, am I the master who is short of money? As long as I can make you two happy, it's worth a word." Chen Ke's extremely exaggerated performance successfully brought Fang Nan and Lu Beicen together.
Amused.
"But these cans of lychee beer of yours don't seem to be enough to satisfy us two heroic girls!" Lu Beicen joked with a smile.
"Don't worry, we have enough wine pipes. We have two big boxes at home. These are taken out of the refrigerator. Today, I am eating Xiajiang sauce duck with ice-cold beer. It's refreshing."
Fang Nan watched Lu Beicen take the sauced duck out of the microwave and put it on the table, and said with a smile: "You are talking about this lychee beer. I remembered an editor in our department. He said that he wanted to save his drinking capacity before.
I bought a bottle of pineapple beer and practiced at home, but after drinking a bottle of pineapple beer, I fell asleep all day long..."
Chen Ke laughed and said: "There are such strange people? Is this an alcohol allergy?"
"The key is that there is a follow-up. At that time, a Shandong girl in our office stood up and said, Hey, Lao Xiao, did you know that the drink we brought in elementary school was Tsingtao beer."
Fang Nan was extremely immersed in learning, which made Lu Beicen and Chen Ke both laugh out loud. Chen Ke took out two cans of Lychee beer and one can of Tsingtao beer from the bag while laughing, opened the can, divided the wine, and raised his hand.
The Tsingtao Beer inside said: "Come, raise a glass to celebrate the first family dinner for the three of us to join forces victoriously."
Fang Nan raised his glass and took a sip of wine before he smiled and said: "I said that you have been through the senior year of high school, even if you haven't gone to college, you should know what a family feast is. Then if we are eating at your house, you can only say the word family feast."
Did you know?"
Chen Ke shook his head disapprovingly: "I won't argue with you two. Next time you come to my house, Xiaobei will still be in charge of the dishes and you will be the master. I can only be responsible for eating. You have to be happy, I have no objection."
"Tell me, you are such an eldest young master. How can your mother-in-law let you fly solo without fear of starving to death?" Fang Nan said in a hurry.
"My mother heard that there are two class sisters here, and that you two are the children of other people's families, so she agreed with my heart to leave home. When I was about to move, she even gave me surgery with full hope.
A gesture of cheering. I thought to myself at that time, if I dare to change my mind in front of you two, I don’t need to cheer, I can immediately understand how to write the word "death" by adding some water. "
Lu Beicen and Fang Nan laughed out loud at the same time. This was the result of being too familiar with each other, and they didn't even think of making a move. After drinking and eating food, Chen Ke's eyebrows almost flew up: "By the way, classmate Xiaobei, your family
Your academic background should not be underestimated. With your cooking skills, no man dares to marry you, and he will directly face the consequences of being middle-aged, fat, and old."
Fang Nan looked blank and said, "You said you eat well and drink well, but you can't stop your bad mouth."
"Okay, okay, after three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, let me tell you something serious. Classmate Xiaobei, what is going on between you and Li Jiantao? Do you know how many versions I listened to in our building today?
