Chapter 669 Chen Xueru is unwilling to go home
By the time Chen Xueru arrived at the courtyard, the skewers and other items had been almost finished, with only a cut of lamb leg left on the rack for roasting.
"You came just in time. We only have two dishes left before we can start eating."
Chen Jun came out of the house with a smile on his face, holding two plates of freshly cooked dishes in his hands.
One serving of Mu Shu pork and one serving of stir-fried beans.
Although they were just two home-cooked dishes, Chen Xueru, who hadn't eaten lunch, couldn't help but start swallowing her saliva after just one look at them.
With skewers of meat, lamb legs, stir-fried dishes and beer, Chen Jun's life in the courtyard is so comfortable.
For a moment, Chen Xueru even wanted to move in and live with Chen Jun as soon as possible.
Apart from anything else, I am already extremely happy to be able to eat meals cooked by Chen Jun every day.
"How did you fry these beans? Why do they look so delicious?" Chen Xueru asked curiously, pointing at the fried beans.
This plate of fried beans is bright green and looks very appetizing.
Xu Damao took a look and said casually, "Are these beans too old?"
"You know shit!" Sha Zhu gave Xu Damao a big slap: "Who said this bean is old? This bean is really great. Even if you practice for ten years, you may not be able to reach this level!"
"Stir-fried vegetables can be so fragrant!" Hou Guifang, who was sitting next to Xu Damao, came closer and smelled it. She couldn't help but ask for advice: "How do you cook the beans? The beans I stir-fried are always limp."
As she spoke, Hou Guifang glanced at Xu Damao beside her with complicated eyes.
"Stir-fried beans are simple, just make them casually." After saying that, he said to Chen Xueru, "You guys eat first, there are two more dishes in the kitchen."
"Yeah!" Chen Xueru naturally wouldn't be polite to Chen Jun. She took a stool and sat at the table.
Hearing the noise, Lin Yao jumped out of the house and brought them the dishes and chopsticks.
In order to have dinner in the evening, Chen Xueru deliberately did not eat lunch. She sat at the table looking at the grilled skewers and stir-fried dishes. She did not bother to wait for Chen Jun and picked up a string bean with her chopsticks.
Although there were grilled skewers on the table, Chen Xueru wanted to try the beans first to see how different they were.
Chen Xueru opened her red lips and took a bite of the bean. She heard a "puff" sound and the emerald green bean burst into juice. The bean juice filled her mouth, stimulating Chen Xueru's taste buds like countless small tentacles.
“Delicious, delicious...”
The most common beans in summer can be cooked so deliciously. Chen Xueru seriously suspects that Chen Jun’s cooking skills have improved again. At least it is much better than when he was selling stir-fried dishes at the stall.
If Chen Jun had the skills he has now at that time, he would be able to shut down all the restaurants on the street.
And Fengdenglou, which is closest to the stall, will definitely be the first to be unlucky.
"It's so delicious! The beans are even better than Damao's fried meat!" Hou Guifang also tasted the beans and started praising them before she could even swallow them.
She could smell the fragrance coming from the Chen family almost every day, but she didn't have many opportunities to taste it. Today was her eye-opener.
No wonder Chen Jun could become the canteen director at such a young age. Just based on his skills, he deserves to be the director.
"Is it true that beans can be better than the stir-fried meat I make?"
Xu Damao seriously suspected that Hou Guifang was maliciously giving a bad review of his stir-fried pork, so he picked up two beans and put them in his mouth.
After eating, Xu Damao fell into deep self-doubt.
Is this really beans???
When did beans become so delicious?
I put two beans into my mouth, and the sweet and crisp taste lingered in my mouth.
Worth it!
Today's meal was a real bargain.
As the last two dishes were served, Xu Damao and his friends were completely delighted by the meal. They drank beer one after another until after ten o'clock.
If nothing unexpected happens, Xu Damao drank too much again. He is a heavy drinker and he drank beer and then white wine and got himself drunk.
Sha Zhu also drank so much that his face turned red and his neck became thick, and he went home drunk.
On the contrary, Chen Jun just drank some beer and stopped. After a simple packing, he took Chen Xueru to the new house, where they stayed together until after eleven o'clock.
If she hadn’t been afraid of the bad influence, Chen Xueru wouldn’t have wanted to leave that night.
"This leg of lamb is specially prepared for our parents, you are not allowed to eat it secretly at night!"
Chen Xueru rolled her eyes cutely when she heard this: "Those are my parents!"
"Ah, it's all the same, all the same!"
Chen Jun carried Chen Xueru onto the bicycle and went to see her off in the pleasant evening breeze.
By the time he returned to the courtyard, it was almost one o'clock.
The Third Uncle is worthy of being the one in control of the entire hospital. Even at this time, they still leave the door open for him.
Using a stick to hold the gate shut, Chen Jun prepared to go back to his room to sleep.
But when he walked to the backyard, he found Xu Damao imitating the roar of a dinosaur in the yard.
"Oh, you haven't slept yet?" Chen Jun joked.
At the critical moment when the dinosaur roared, Xu Damao raised his hand and waved to Chen Jun, indicating that you should leave quickly, I don’t have time to chat with you.
Seeing this, Chen Jun smiled, parked the car and went into the house.
However, just as Chen Jun had tidied himself up and was lying on the bed, a crackling sound suddenly came from the yard.
The noise was like at least fifty firecrackers going off, waking up everyone in the courtyard.
"Fuck, what's going on?"
"Who the hell is setting off firecrackers in the middle of the night? This isn't a festival."
“Help me, ahhhhhh~~~~”
The most frightened were the Jia family in the central courtyard, because the firecrackers exploded right at their doorstep.
Jia Dongxu, whose leg was already broken, was frightened so much that he fell under the bed.
"What's going on?"
Qin Huairu reacted quickly and put on her clothes and helped Jia Dongxu back to bed.
"How would I know?" Jia Dongxu said unhappily, "Go out and take a look. I suspect someone is deliberately taking revenge on our family."
Jia Zhang has offended many neighbors in the courtyard over the years. Now that she has been sent to labor reform, there may be people setting off firecrackers to celebrate.
Qin Huairu shook her head. She was very scared just now and it was late at night, so she didn't dare to go out.
"Useless thing!" Jia Dongxu cursed.
But before he could finish his words, the sound of Sha Zhu's abuse was heard from the yard.
"Jia Dongxu, are you crazy? Why are you setting off firecrackers so late at night? Is your mother going to remarry?"
Sha Zhu had a bad temper to begin with, and he drank a little tonight. When he saw Liu Lan who was frightened awake, he immediately turned into a powder keg.
His wife is pregnant. If something bad happens to her, Sha Zhu will skin her alive.
There are only so many people living in the Intermediate Court, and Yi Zhonghai certainly wouldn't be so idle as to set off firecrackers, so the biggest suspect fell on Jia Dongxu.
This guy has a broken leg. He lies in bed and sleeps during the day, but he might be more energetic at night.
Once this person can't sleep, he might think of doing something.
