After hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words, Ke Baiwei looked at the time and saw that it was almost eight o'clock, so he picked a few of the most difficult ingredients and walked towards the kitchen.
When Zhang Yuanyuan saw Ke Baiwei going to the kitchen, he asked Lu Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, should we go and help Uncle Ke."
"No, he doesn't like having people around when he's cooking. But if you want to help, you can help him wash the side dishes and peel the garlic."
Zhang Yuanyuan nodded after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words. Then she picked out side dishes such as onions, ginger, garlic and carrots from the pile on the floor, and walked towards the kitchen.
Lu Xiaoxiao saw that Ke Baiwei and Zhang Yuanyuan were busy, but she hadn't had breakfast yet, so she ate her breakfast quickly.
Then she carried the fruits and various dried fruits she bought from the floor to the table, took them out of the net bag one by one and placed them on the plate.
After Lu Xiaoxiao placed the fruits and dried fruits, she saw that nothing happened without her, so she went out and walked towards the base duty office.
When she came to the duty office at the base, she saw that there was only a young man in the office, so she said to him: "Comrade, I need to use the phone."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Xu Le asked Lu Xiaoxiao, "Can you write?"
"meeting."
"Then register your name and you can make a call."
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded after hearing Xu Le's words, then she picked up a pen and wrote her name in the book, then picked up the phone and dialed.
The call was connected a few seconds later. Lu Xiaoxiao heard the unfamiliar voice coming from the other side. She knew that Zhang Xu and the others had not come back yet, so she said sorry and hung up the phone.
After she hung up the phone, she said thank you to Xu Le again and turned around and left the duty room.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, when Ke Baiwei saw that everything that needed to be prepared was almost ready, she asked Lu Xiaoxiao, who was sitting in the room eating melon seeds, "What time do you want to have New Year's Eve dinner?"
"Generally the earlier the better."
"Let's eat early."
Shen Jiadong nodded after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words, and then he asked Lu Xiaoxiao to wait for another half hour, and the New Year's Eve dinner would be ready.
After Zhang Yuanyuan went to the kitchen after Ke Baiwei, she asked Lu Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, are it really just the three of us having New Year's Eve dinner tonight?"
"If there are no accidents, it should be."
"Then have we prepared too many dishes today? I don't think ten people can finish all those dishes."
"It's okay. We have more every year. If you can't finish it, just save it for tomorrow. After all, the weather is cold now and the food won't spoil easily."
Zhang Yuanyuan heard what Lu Xiaoxiao said and thought about it, so she and Lu Xiaoxiao cleaned up the things on the table.
After they cleared everything on the table and put them aside, they saw Ke Baiwei walking towards them with two plates of cold dishes, so she and Zhang Yuanyuan took the dishes from Ke Baiwei's hands and put them on the table.
Then he asked Ke Baiwei: "Do you need our help serving the food?"
"I don't need you to help me set off those two firecrackers." After Ke Baiwei finished speaking, he pointed to the two firecrackers placed on the stool.
When Lu Xiaoxiao saw the two firecrackers, she couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth, and then said to Ke Bai: "Uncle Ke, you must be really out of money, otherwise why would you buy just two firecrackers?" root."
"You don't have money. If it weren't for setting off firecrackers now, I could buy a bunch of firecrackers to set off."
