Chapter 124
124. Invitation
Looking at Zhou Mingbai's back, Lin Qingxi was very glad that she took some candy from the space at noon and put it in the suitcase for later use. Otherwise, it would be obvious that something was wrong if she took it out of the space now.
In the room, Zhou Mingbai opened Lin Qingxi's small suitcase with a red face. Most of the inside were Lin Qingxi's clothes, including close-fitting clothes. As soon as the box was opened, the things were displayed in front of him.
Thinking that he had to wait for him to take the candy in the kitchen, Zhou Mingxi could only rely on his strong willpower to suppress the ripples in his heart. He quickly took the milk candy and half a bag of ginger candy out, and before leaving, he closed the small suitcase tightly.
By the time Zhou Mingdi came to the kitchen with candy, he had become expressionless, with no turbulence on his face, and he could not tell what he had just experienced.
After the water boiled, Lin Qingxi filled the boiling water with two military water bottles, and all the rest was put in a wooden basin. Fortunately, he took enough wooden basins from Feng's house.
"I understand, have you borrowed tables, chairs and benches from others?" Lin Qingxi suddenly remembered that there was only one table at home, and she would definitely not be able to sit down after dinner, so she asked quickly.
"Zhang Lei said he would do it. Don't worry, you will bring it here later," Zhou Mingbai said in a deep voice. He told Zhang Lei about borrowing tables, chairs and benches, but when he said that he planned to borrow it himself.
"Then look at where the table is better next time? There is already a table in the living room, and I guess it can't sit down even if I put one table. It will be inconvenient to put it in the room." If you just put two tables simply, the living room can still be placed, but it will not be enough for people to sit on two tables.
"Sit in the yard and eat! We are not particular about people, so we don't have to pay attention to those people. I think that if Commander Xiang sits in and accompany Village Chief Xie and the others for dinner, my comrades will sit in the yard and eat in the yard, and there is no need to divide adults and children," Zhou Mingbai thought about it, his comrades had a real friendship, and he really didn't need to care about those.
"Yes," Lin Qingxi did not reject Zhou Mingbi's proposal. She didn't care about this.
Lin Qingxi asked Zhou Guilin to burn a fire and started cooking. In the yard, Zhou Mingbai's comrades had already brought their families to the door one after another.
In less than half an hour, everyone who came to eat arrived. Just as Lin Qingxi's dishes were fried, Huihong and his wife came to the kitchen to serve the dishes, Aunt Sun set up the dishes, and everyone started eating.
"Teacher, this is my fiancée Lin Qingxi, Doctor Lin, this is our teacher Xiang, this is our teacher's lover Haitang, this is their youngest son Xiang Jiong, this is our leader Zhao Chu, this is our leader's lover Han Dasao, this is their three others, Zhao Peng, Zhao Hui, and Zhao Tiantian, this is our deputy leader Li Qiang, this is our deputy leader Hou, this is their lover Li Dan and Li Mao, this is our second battalion brother, this is our daughter-in-law, this is Xiaodong's daughter-in-law Liu Xiaocui and Fruit Yingying, this is the daughter-in-law Liu Yuan and Zhan Xiang."
The yard was full of people, all of Zhou Mingbai's comrades and leaders. Before he could take his seat, Zhou Mingbai specially pulled Lin Qingxi over and introduced it to both parties, mainly introducing Lin Qingxi to everyone.
"Teacher Xiang, long time no see, everyone, I am Lin Qingxi," Lin Qingxi greeted everyone with a cold expression. Teacher Xiang has been here for almost ten years, and Lin Qingxi has known him for a long time.
"Yes! Xi girl, long time no see, are Yijing and Yikang okay?" Teacher Xiang said with a gentle expression, not caring about Lin Qingxi's coldness at all.
"It's great, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, and you have to read books," Lin Qingxi nodded, gave Zhou Mingbi a wink, and signaled him to arrange for everyone to take a seat.
"Where is the ashes that are moving forward? I want to see him," Xiang Zheng opened his mouth and finally asked.
"I'm buried with my parents. Xiang Qianjin is from my Lin family. I don't care what your relationship is, others are no longer here, so let's do it for this, do you understand?" Lin Qingxi looked at Teacher Xiang with a sad look, his tone was full of rudeness.
"I have no other meaning... I just want to recognize Yijing and his brothers. I won't snatch them from you," said the commander to explain to himself.
"Even if you want to grab it, you still have to take it away. I have never stopped you from recognizing them. This is your business and it has nothing to do with me," Lin Qingxi shook her head and rejected the topic.
Zhou Ming realized that the atmosphere was not good, so he quickly arranged for everyone to sit down and have dinner. He took Teacher Xiang and his family to the living room to sit with Village Chief Xie and the others.
"Everyone, it's a common dish. Don't be polite. Add food to your own," Lin Qingxi looked at Zhou Mingbai's comrades and said, "I understand that it's not convenient for me to drink. We have to catch the train back tomorrow, so we haven't prepared wine for everyone. I'm really embarrassed."
"It's okay, they need to train tomorrow and cannot drink. You can go to have a meal too! Let's do it ourselves, you don't have to come here to greet us," Zhao Chu's wife Han Fenfang stood up and looked at Lin Qingxi with a smile.
Seeing that she said this, Lin Qingxi was not polite. She went into the living room to greet Village Chief Xie and the others. She did not drink and ate much faster.
After dinner, Zhou Mingbai's comrades greeted him and left. After dinner, Aunt Sun went to clean up the table of bowls and chopsticks in the yard. These days, there were basically no leftovers when eating, and it was all a clean plate operation.
In the living room, Lin Qingxi and everyone were having a meal and chatting, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. Just a few minutes ago, Lin Qingxi formally introduced Zhou Mingbai to Village Chief Xie and Carpenter Feng, and even greeted Hui Hong and the others. In the future, Zhou Mingbai realized that if he was injured and hospitalized, he would ask them to contact her directly.
After dinner, Zhou Guilin and Aunt Sun took down the bowls and chopsticks. Zhou Mingbai sent away the teacher Xiang and his family. Lin Qingxi went to the kitchen to bring the four bowls of ginseng and chicken soup that had been warmed in the pot.
"Sister Huihong, Aunt Feng, Uncle Xie, drink it quickly. I specially left you ginseng chicken soup. Your aunt is a little weak," Lin Qingxi said while putting three bowls of ginseng chicken soup in front of the three of them.
"Xi girl, please keep it for yourself! Such a precious thing is a waste for us to eat," Uncle Xie looked at the bowl of chicken soup in front of him, and couldn't put it down. He couldn't compete with his children for food.
"Yes! Xi girl, just keep it for drinking. Your family knows that it is still a patient, so give it to him!" Aunt Feng followed and agreed.
"Don't meet me anymore. The chicken soup is left at noon. We have all drunk it at noon. This is what I specially left for you three. Look, this bowl is for Brother Mingbi," Lin Qingxi said, pointing to the last remaining bowl.
"Okay, you guys drink it quickly! This is what Xi girl wants," Village Chief Xie felt funny when he saw that the few people had been postponing, and was also very moved.
