♂?,,
After graduating from junior high school, Er Ya has been staying with her grandfather and mother all the time, rarely contacting people of the same age. Now seeing so many brothers and sisters, as well as Xiaomei who is about the same age as herself, she feels indescribably happy.
Xiao Yu smiled awkwardly and said, "Dad, you're always joking around. I rarely get to sleep in late, but I got caught this time."
The breakfast was very rich, with not only the meat buns made by Old Zhang's wife, but also the rice porridge cooked by Xiao Dao and the fried dough sticks made by Zhou Xin and Tao Hong.
Da Niu and Er Ya had just woken up, yesterday was spent on the road, grabbing bites to eat along the way, without having a proper meal. Now, eating this steaming hot Shanghai breakfast, they felt it was heavenly, especially Er Ya, who ate with a big smile, repeatedly exclaiming "delicious".
In the mountains, it's not every day that you can eat rice and flour, often corn and potatoes are used as staple foods.
Everyone hasn't seen each other for two weeks, and they all talked about their own interesting experiences of returning home for the New Year. The atmosphere was very lively, and Old Zhang couldn't stop smiling. He thought that choosing to live here was a very wise decision, being able to be with these young people every day and laughing several times a day would probably make him younger by a few years.
Apart from Da Niu and Er Ya, everyone else has noticed Xiao Yu's change. How could he have changed so much in just two weeks? It's as if he's become a different person! As Tao Hong would say, it's like he's a movie star now.
Xiao Mei and Zhou Xin's eyes were even more colorful, staring at Xiao Yu without blinking.
Xiao Yu was looked at embarrassingly by everyone, so he had to make up a reason, saying that he fell into a cave in the mountains and found a pill left behind by a senior expert. After taking the medicine, his body grew rapidly and when he came out of the cave, he became like this.
Everyone ridicules this statement. Have you watched too many martial arts movies? Where are so many caves to fall into? Where are so many spiritual medicines to eat?
But Xiao Yu didn't say, and the others couldn't do anything about it, so they stopped asking. However, boys will eventually grow up, and Xiao Yu was in a period of physical development, growing faster is also reasonable.
At breakfast, Xiao Yu gathered everyone together and held a meeting.
The staff in the store have all arrived, and business can start tomorrow. After resting for so long in December, the rent of 8,000 yuan must be paid on time without missing a single cent. Xiao Yu needs to arrange his work simply.
When it reopened, there were many more varieties of snacks in the store.
When participating in a food competition, those three snacks must be served, and there will definitely be many customers who come to try them.
The recipe for roasted chicken wings had long been passed on to Xiaodao by Xiaoyu, and with his skills, the result should be almost as good as if Xiaoyu had made it himself.
Er Ya's mutton noodles and Huang-style sausage have a unique flavor, Shanghainese people like to try new things, so there should be many customers who will support them.
Lao Zhang's leg injury has fully recovered, and he took the initiative to resume his old career - making buns. According to him, during his convalescence, he devoted himself to research and improved the filling of his buns. Now his buns are definitely a notch higher than before.
Lao Zhang's steamed buns are divided into three varieties: meat buns, bean paste buns and vegetable buns.
With so many new snack varieties added, Xiaoyu thought for a while and reassigned the existing staff, dividing them into two areas: kitchen and hall.
The kitchen consists of four people: Xiao Dao, Da Niu, Er Ya and Lao Zhang Tou.
The lobby was in charge of Xiaomei and Taohong for reception, while Zhou Xinyin was responsible for collecting money.
And he himself has school tomorrow and can't take care of the store anymore.
Since the store has added so many varieties, it's not very suitable to call the store "Little Yu Spicy Sauce Noodle Shop" anymore. Little Yu thought for a moment and changed the name of the store to "Little Yu Snack Shop".
After finishing all this, Xiao Yu asked Zhou Xin and others to take Da Niu to the vegetable market to purchase materials needed for tomorrow's opening.
Then went back upstairs and turned on the computer, having not touched it for two weeks, feeling a bit itchy in her heart.
In addition, the second stage of the KOW website competition is about to start, and Xiao Yu doesn't want to miss that $200,000.
First open KOW website, and indeed there is a new email in the station's mailbox. Xiaoyu took a look at the date and it was sent out two days ago. Fortunately, it should still be on time.
Open the email, and it was indeed the matchup table for the new round of competition.
Xiaoyu calculated the time and it should be tonight at 9 o'clock. The opponent is a Golden Member, 'Eagle'.
Seeing the four words "Golden Member" in front of his opponent's ID, Xiao Yu's heart skipped a beat. In the previous selection match, the opponent's ID and level were not displayed on the battle table, but this time they were shown. It was clear that the official competition had just begun.
There are 140 members participating in the second stage of the competition, including 40 gold members who directly entered the second stage. These 140 people will compete for seven places, and only those who get the top seven can have the opportunity to compete with the nine platinum members for the final championship.
Who is this 'eagle'? Since he's a gold member, shouldn't he be reliable?
Xiao Yu opened QQ and sent a message to "Come one kill one", asking about the situation of "Eagle", but found that he was not online.
Took a look at the list of good friends, found Qin Lulu was online, remembered the message she sent to herself yesterday, still felt a little creepy in her heart, and quickly sent her a message.
"Big sister, I'm back."
Qin Lulu immediately sent a message back, "Hmph! Who cares whether I come back or not!"
Xiao Yu knew that something was wrong, and Qin Dajie's temper was on the rise. He quickly explained, "This winter vacation I went to Henan for a while, things were urgent, forgot to tell you, sorry!"
"Henan? What's in Henan?" Qin Lulu's attention was indeed drawn over.
"I'm accompanying a friend back home, his hometown is in Henan." Little Yu replied truthfully.
"Friend? Male or female?" Qin Luluo immediately became alert.
"He's a man named Yang Dainiu. His hometown is in Neihuang, Henan Province. He has been away from home for six years and hasn't returned until now, so I'm accompanying him back home this time."
Qin Lulu saw that Xiao Yu's words were reasonable, and Yang Daniu's name sounded absolutely male, so her anger dissipated by half.
I thought he was fooling around with some fox spirit somewhere, but it turns out I misunderstood him.
However, thinking of myself searching for him everywhere these past few days, my heart felt more and more wronged. I sent a message saying "Even if you have something going on, can't you give me a call or send a text? Don't you consider me a friend?"
Xiao Yu complained, "Big sister, my friend's hometown is in the mountains, where there is no signal at all. My phone has been turned off for days, how can I make a call?"
After hearing Xiao Yu's explanation, Qin Lulu's anger dissipated a bit. The other person's phone had no signal, which was an irresistible force. If she continued to argue with him, it would be somewhat unreasonable. However, letting him off like this also seemed too easy on him.
After thinking for a while, I sent a message to Xiaoyu, "No matter what, it's his fault. Unless he invites me to Tianlin Road to eat snacks. I heard that there was a food competition held there recently, and there are many delicious things."
Xiao Yu was delighted to hear that, and immediately agreed, "No problem, when should I come? I'll take you to a place where there are many things that you've never had before! Besides, I happen to have something else that needs help with."
"Help? What's going on?" Qin Luluo cursed inwardly, this kid is getting more and more cunning, not even inviting her out yet, already asking for help.
"You'll know when it comes."
After agreeing on a meeting time and place with the two of them, Qin Lulu shut down her computer with a mind full of doubts. What was this little universe planning to get her to do?
However, thinking that this is the second private date between the two since watching a movie together, she couldn't help but feel excited again. A girl must dress up properly when going out, Qin Lulu quickly walked to her closet and carefully picked out her clothes.
2 o'clock in the afternoon, at the entrance of Tianlin Club.
Qin Lulu got off the bus and saw Xiao Yu standing at the entrance looking around, her eyes widened involuntarily.
How did this guy grow taller?
Qin Lulu used to often tease Xiao Yu about his height, joking that a boy was almost as tall as her. Unexpectedly, after not seeing him for two weeks, this guy had grown taller than her by so much.
Seeing that guy excitedly waving at her, Qin Lulu was certain that this person was indeed Zhang Xiaoyu.
"Hey, what's going on? This is too exaggerated!" Qin Luluo stood beside Xiao Yu, gesturing with her hand to compare their heights. Xiao Yu was now more than half a head taller than herself. Suddenly, she felt that this height was just right, very matching. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but scold herself secretly, how could she think of such things?
As for why he grew taller, Xiao Yu had been asked by many people and could only bring out the story of falling into the mountain cave again to tell Qin Lulu.
Qin Lulu snorted, bursting out laughing, "You didn't even draft a story and thought I'd believe it? Even if there really was some immortal's leftover divine medicine, it would have long expired by now. If you ate it and didn't get diarrhea, that'd be a surprise!"
Xiao Yu was speechless, Qin Luluo was indeed Qin Luluo, nothing could deceive her. Qin Luluo was his good friend, and it wasn't good to tell lies anymore, so he simply told her about getting sick in the mountains and having Big Cow Grandpa make him soup to drink.
Qin Lulu listened to Zhang Dalian's words, and although this matter was more reliable than Xiao Yu's previous explanation, it was still unbelievable. However, Xiao Yu was indeed standing in front of her, which was a fact after all?
Staring at Xiao Yu's eyes for a while, Qin Lulu was certain that Xiao Yu wasn't lying, his gaze was pure and didn't look like he was lying.
Suddenly, Qin Lulu found that Xiao Yu's face was much more handsome than before, especially those eyes, which were as bright as the morning stars, as if they could see through to the depths of a person's heart.
Qin Lulu hastily moved her eyes away, feeling a flush on her face, and didn't dare to look again. She casually replied, "Alright, I'll believe it this time! Tell you what, if next time before going out far, you dare not tell me again, I...I..."
Qin Lulu thought for half a day and still couldn't think of a good way to punish Xiao Yu. If she said she wouldn't care about him, she would really miss him a bit.
"Just tell the police I've been raped!" Little Yu blurted out.
