"Grandma Su, take some of the baked goods and share them with them." Lin Xi thought about it and decided that after she and Gu Tingxiao left, Grandma Su and Sun Jing would inevitably be taken care of by these neighbors, so it wouldn't be a bad idea to give them a little treat.
As the saying goes, a man who eats someone's food will be soft-hearted, and a man who receives someone's favor will be obliged to return the favor. Even if these neighbors don't help, it would be great as long as they don't try to trip us up in secret.
"This..." Grandma Su swallowed the words "No need for that" back into her stomach, because she knew that Lin Xi was leaving a way out for them, the grandparents and grandchildren.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Grandma Su took a large bowl and put some eggplants, corn, and leeks in it. She tried to take some but didn't see any meat. Seeing this, Lin Xi personally packed some of each for her to prevent others from saying that Grandma Su was stingy.
"That's enough, that's not enough. You can't have so much." In her words, this thing is just for tasting, it won't fill you up. After saying that, she carefully held the bowl and walked out of the door, afraid of dropping it.
Before long, the three people in the yard heard the neighbors' words of thanks, and Lin Xi became more certain that the decision he made this time was the right one.
After distributing the food, Granny Su came back with the empty bowl, with a smile on her face. Ever since the incident in her family, these people have been avoiding her whenever possible, let alone helping her. She didn't expect that today, with just a little favor, they would chat with her with a smile. There was no such thing as a mouse seeing a cat as in the past. She had to say that Xiaoxi's idea was really useful, and she couldn't help but feel even more grateful.
"Come on, come on, eat it while it's hot." When it was almost done roasting, Lin Xi quickly called a few people to eat.
Mmm! That’s the taste! Lin Xi gnawed on a crispy duck foot and squinted his eyes in satisfaction.
Compared with the other three people who were "gnawing", Granny Su had the will but not the strength. As she was old and had bad teeth, she could only eat something soft and rotten, such as eggplant.
However, the taste of the roasted eggplant was different from that of the one used for cooking. It was much better than the one used for cooking, so she ate two at once.
"Grandma Su, have some meat too." Lin Xi picked out the tenderer meat from the chicken wings and put it in her bowl.
"Okay, I'll eat more." Seeing how sensible Xiaoxi is, and then looking at her grandson with his mouth full of oil, Grandma Su suddenly felt a little disgusted. Is it okay for her to not want this grandson?
Gu Tingxiao never missed any opportunity to show off, and kept picking up the duck feet and chicken wings that Lin Xi liked, "You should eat more too." He silently added in his heart, "Wife!"
Seeing that most of the meat was given to Lin Xi by Gu Tingxiao, Sun Jing felt unbalanced, "Brother Gu, she is an adult and you still give her some, but I am still a child and you don't even give me some."
Sun Jing stopped eating the barbecue and sat there complaining with a pout.
Wow! Is this guy jealous? But what kind of jealousy is he? Isn't it okay for me to love my own wife?
Although I thought it was funny, I still picked up the chopsticks and served him some food. I didn't stop until there was no more room in the bowl. "Now it's ok!"
Sun Jing said nothing, but he couldn't hide the smile in his eyes. He picked up a chicken wing and started to eat it.
"This child..." Grandma Su smiled helplessly. Ever since Lin Xi and Gu Tingxiao moved here, she found that her grandson had become a child again. He was no longer the one who looked at everyone as an enemy. It would be great if he could stay like this. A child's childhood should be carefree!
Lin Xi: Are you trying to compete with me for favor?
Sun Jing: Nonsense, it’s obvious that the person Brother Gu cares about the most is me.
Gu Tingxiao: The person I care about most is my wife!
Lin Xi: Listen carefully, kid!
Sun Jing: I’m so angry!
They ate and chatted until ten o'clock in the evening. Sun Jing was very sleepy, so Granny Su took him back to bed. The yard suddenly became deserted, with only Lin Xi and Gu Tingxiao left.
"Let's clean up and go to bed early!" Looking at the mess on the floor, Lin Xi had a headache. She was the worst at cleaning up and didn't know where to start.
Gu Tingxiao saw the embarrassment in her eyes and said, "Why don't you go back first and I can clean it up by myself."
"No need, let's do it together, it will be faster this way." Lin Xi didn't think of "escaping from the battlefield" and rolled up his sleeves to start cleaning.
When the two were halfway done, Granny Su came back and asked, "Xiao Xi, what time are you leaving tomorrow?" while picking up the broom to sweep the floor.
"In the afternoon! We can still have lunch."
"I feel so sad when I think that I can no longer eat the food cooked by you, Granny Su." Lin Xi was hypocritical for once, and he almost felt sickened by the tone.
"There will definitely be a chance in the future." When she said this, Grandma Su felt a little sad. In the past few days, she had treated Lin Xi as her own granddaughter. She didn't expect that the time of separation would come so soon.
Forget it, there is no point in thinking too much. All good things must come to an end. There is a long way to go, and we will meet again someday.
"Grandma Su, I will find time to come and see you later." Lin Xi wanted to comfort her more but didn't know what to say.
"Okay, okay, I'll wait." Grandma Su knew that Lin Xi was an educated youth and it was not easy for her to come out, but she was very content as long as she had this intention.
"I will definitely come." Lin Xi was telling the truth. She wanted to find time to come again next time and control the black market in her own hands, so that some of the food in the space would have a place to go.
After the three of them had packed up, Grandma Su said she would prepare delicious food for them tomorrow and then go back to her room to sleep, because getting old just makes you tired easily.
Delicious? She probably won’t be able to eat it, but there will be a chance next time. Thinking of this, Lin Xi’s mood is not so depressed anymore.
"Remember not to make breakfast tomorrow." Lin Xi reminded Gu Tingxiao again, fearing that he would forget.
"Okay, I understand." Gu Tingxiao's eyes were full of Lin Xi, and he felt that he could never see enough!
Seeing the affection in Gu Tingxiao's eyes, Lin Xi felt that this man was unfairly handsome, and she wished she could take a bite of him.
When Lin Xi thought so, she actually did so. She quickly kissed Gu Tingxiao's slightly cold lips. Her mind went blank. After realizing what she was doing, she quickly fled the crime scene, leaving Gu Tingxiao alone in a daze.
Was he just kissed by his wife? He touched his lips with his hand, and it seemed that the warmth of her red lips was still lingering on his lips. Gu Tingxiao smiled foolishly. This look of not wanting money was really unbearable to watch.
Oh my god, what was she doing just now? She was seduced, which was really embarrassing for her boss. Lin Xi felt that her face was so hot, but it seemed to taste good.
Hehe! I'll feel it again next time. Lin Xi was still complaining about herself in the last second, and she started to have wild thoughts in the next second.
That night, even their dreams were sweet.
At 6:30 the next morning, the alarm clock on Lin Xi's bedside rang on time. Lin Xi got up quickly and packed up, then took out all kinds of food from the space and filled the whole house with them. He also left a thousand yuan and some useful bills, and took out some milk and bread, as well as some preserved fruits and biscuits and put them in the luggage bag, and then went out to find Gu Tingxiao.
As soon as Lin Xi opened the door, she saw the tall figure standing in the yard. Lin Xi pretended to be relaxed and walked up to him, "Good morning, let's go!"
"Yeah. OK." Although it was just two short words, Lin Xi inexplicably heard the excitement in his tone.
Holding Lin Xi's hand tightly in his own, Gu Tingxiao felt that his life was complete.
Lin Xi did not refuse Gu Tingxiao's intimacy, nor did she have any reason to refuse. After all, they were already boyfriend and girlfriend, and holding hands was normal. What's more, she kissed him last night, which was embarrassing enough. How could she be so bold!
