Seeing the children, Lu Jueyu smiled and said, "You are all back."
The children greeted them before they went to wash their hands. Afterwards, the older children went to the kitchen to help Lu Jueyu bring out the food.
Because there was a meal at the wedding banquet, Lu Jueyu only prepared some wonton soup and scallion pancakes to fill their stomach. After eating, Dong Li and Chen Jianmin cleared the table, washed the dishes, and went to the living room to do their homework.
While the children were doing their homework under Li Chenmo’s guidance, Lu Jueyu went to the woodshed and brought out a large bamboo basket.
Then she went to the kitchen and filled the bamboo basket with eggs, sugar, salt, seasonings, oil, meat, vegetables, grains, and some flour. The ingredients for the wedding banquet have been transported to Xiao Li’s house. These items are prepared just in case.
After packing the ingredients, she came to the living room and said, "Husband, I will go to the village hall first. You can take the children with you later."
Li Chenmo heard her words and said, "Wife, I will take you there."
"Okay." Lu Jueyu nodded.
After connecting the cart to the bicycle, Li Chenmo put the bamboo basket on one of the carts and said, "Wife, have you taken out the dishes we prepare in your space?"
"I plan to take it out later," Lu Jueyu said.
After thinking for a moment, Li Chenmo said, "I think it’s better for you to take it out now and I will transport it to the village hall with the bicycle. In this way, no one would ask anything."
Hearing her husband’s words, Lu Jueyu’s eyes lit up and said, "Husband, we will do as you say." ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
As soon as she finished speaking, she went to the kitchen and took out one third of the cold dishes from her space. As for the soup, she would bring it out later. As long as people see them delivering food, they won’t become suspicious.
After fully loading the cart, Lu Jueyu sat in the back seat, and the two went to the village hall together.
When the villagers saw the cart filled with bamboo baskets and big pots, one of them asked curiously, "Jueyu, are you going to the village hall to cook now?"
He nodded to the villagers and said, "Uncle, we are bringing the cold dishes over first."
Hearing this, everyone’s ears immediately perk up. This was the first time they heard of cold dishes. But before they could ask any more questions, Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu had already left.
The short conversation aroused everyone’s curiosity, and they decided to visit the village hall and see later. Even if they can’t taste the dishes, they can broaden their horizons. One day if they can taste cold dishes, they won’t look like a country bumpkin.
As for fruits, there are berries, watermelons, peaches, oranges, and kumquats. The fruit was packed in several huge bamboo baskets and placed in the corner of the kitchen. Later, Lu Jueyu took out all the ingredients needed for Mapo tofu, braised pork, spicy edamame, and honey roasted peanuts.
Li Chenmo needed to go back and forth several times before he finished transporting everything to the village hall’s kitchen. Not long after he left, Pan Meijia, Chen Anwen, several aunts, and young women arrived.
Everyone was shocked to see the kitchen filled with a large amount of food and ingredients. Fortunately, the village hall’s kitchen is very large. So, even though there are a lot of dishes and ingredients inside, they still have a lot of room to move around comfortably.
Seeing them, Lu Jueyu smiled and said, "Everyone is here."
Entering the kitchen, Chen Anwen said, "Jueyu, why did you come so early? Have you finished everything?"
"Sister-in-law, these are cold dishes. I have been preparing them since the morning. Now we need to prepare some snacks first and then cook the other dishes," Lu Jueyu said.
"Jueyu, what should we do now?" Pan Meijia asked.
After thinking for a while, Lu Jueyu said, "Let’s wash the soybeans and peanuts first. After the peanuts are washed, they need to be peeled."
