New Year (Two)

After Lu Xiaoxiao finished eating, she heard the monkeys and others talking in the yard, so she got off the kang and walked towards the yard.

"Monkey, how did you get so much wood back?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked the monkey after seeing the twelve pieces of wood placed on the ground.

"The place where we pulled the wood today is relatively close, so we brought some more back so that you don't have to chop wood for a year."

"Thank you. You absorb it quickly. I cooked lunch for you."

"We'll go right away."

Lu Xiaoxiao brought the warm mutton soup in the pot to the table in the main room while Monkey and the others were washing their hands. Then she took twelve steamed buns for Monkey and the others from the steamer.

"Lu Xiaoxiao, you don't have to cook so much delicious food for us. We can just eat steamed buns and sweet potatoes." The gray cat said to Lu Xiaoxiao after seeing the mutton on the table.

Gray Cat knew that she was the only one left in Lu Xiaoxiao's family. Although Lu Xiaoxiao had subsidies, those subsidies would be gone when Lu Xiaoxiao turned eighteen, so they couldn't keep occupying them so shamelessly. Lu Xiaoxiao is cheap.

After hearing what Gray Cat said, Lu Xiaoxiao probably guessed what Gray Cat was thinking, so she said to Gray Cat: "Your boss brought back a wild goat yesterday, so I have mutton for you to eat. If Normally when you come to my house, I will definitely treat you with sweet potato, corn and rice porridge."

"Eat. After you finish eating, take your things and go back to the mountain." Zhang Xu said to Gray Mao and the others after hearing the conversation between Gray Mao and the little girl.

"yes."

"Lu Xiaoxiao, the brothers in the mountains would like to invite you to go to the mountains to celebrate the New Year with them tomorrow." After the monkey finished eating, he looked at Lu Xiaoxiao and said.

Lu Xiaoxiao didn't answer immediately when she heard Monkey's words, because she originally planned to go to the cowshed with Zhang Xu tomorrow night to spend New Year's Eve with the master and the others, but now Monkey and the others invited her to the mountains to spend New Year's Eve. If she If they refuse, they will probably be disappointed.

Zhang Xu frowned when he saw the little girl's tangled brows, so he said to the little girl: "I will accompany you to the cowshed at noon tomorrow, and I will take you up the mountain in the evening."

Lu Xiaoxiao suddenly understood after hearing Zhang Xu's words. Why hadn't she thought of this method before?

"Monkey, you go back and tell those brothers on the mountain that I will go up the mountain to spend New Year's Eve with them tomorrow night."

"Okay, let's go back to the mountain first."

"Wait a minute, in addition to carrying the vat of wine up the mountain, you also carry the four baskets of steamed buns in the yard up the mountain."

"good."

Lu Xiaoxiao said to Zhang Xu after Monkey and the others left: "Zhang Xu, since I'm going to have dinner with the master and the others at noon tomorrow, some dishes will be prepared today, so you have to help me in the afternoon."

"good."

Lu Xiaoxiao started thinking about the menu after hearing Zhang Xu's answer. Ten minutes later, she decided on the menu for tomorrow's lunch. She planned to cook six dishes tomorrow. The dishes are: braised fish, mutton and radish soup, Beef stew with potatoes, braised pork, vermicelli stew and hot pot chicken.

Lu Xiaoxiao planned to prepare braised meat and hot pot chicken today so that she would not have to rush so much tomorrow.

Lu Xiaoxiao came to the yard and took out two chickens, two pig trotters, a piece of beef and a piece of beef tendon from the snowdrift, and then returned to the kitchen.

"Zhang Xu, come here."

After Zhang Xu heard what the little girl said, he put down the saw in his hand and walked towards the kitchen.
