It's the weekend and I just left the Fu family and I'm alive again.

He put his arm around Fu Huaichuan's shoulders with a playful smile and said, "Old Fu, I know you still have me as your brother in your heart!"

Fu Huaichuan rolled his eyes and said, "Hurry up and get to work!"

"Can this skill be put to good use soon?"

Weekend had a look on his face that said, "What are you talking about?"

"Master Liu and his team should still be able to do it, so we should go slower."

Although they said so, the movements of the two men did not slow down at all.

After the group moved the tables to the Fu family yard and arranged them neatly, Teacher Liu and his colleagues had also finished copying the test papers.

A few of them moved their hands and asked, "Xiao Fu, is there anything we can help you with?"

"Why do we need so many people to help with such a small job? But we have to use this table to eat later, so we have to clean up the things on it." Fu Huaichuan said as he instructed Fu Liangdong and the other three siblings to clean up their things on the table.

After everyone had cleared away the things on the table, Fu Huaichuan decisively moved the table to the yard.

At the same time, Weekend and Fu Ning also started to slowly serve the dishes outside.

Lin Xi divided all the dishes into two portions.

One portion went to the men like Fu Huaichuan, and one portion was left for the women and children.

Soon, the two square tables in the yard were filled with a variety of dishes, including braised pig's trotters, braised pork, sweet and sour spareribs, pheasant stewed with potatoes, pickled cucumbers, tomatoes with sugar, pork shank and winter melon soup, stir-fried meat with peppers, kimchi, stir-fried seasonal vegetables, stir-fried meat with king oyster mushrooms, fried potatoes, minced meat stewed with egg custard...

Each dish was super large in portion, leaving Commander Liu and his colleagues stunned.

“How do you make so many dishes?”

It’s the weekend: “There are so many of us, we have to cook more dishes, otherwise there won’t be enough to eat, and this is how we usually eat.”

After that, he introduced them to Commander Liu and the others, "I bought the spareribs and chicken this morning. The pig's trotters and shanks were brought by Xixi and Lao Fu from their hometown. The potatoes, cucumbers, tomatoes and other things were picked from my brother's vegetable garden. These are Xixi's specialties. You and the political commissar will know when you try them."

"I promise you and the commissar will eat it without making a sound."

"Really? Then I'll have to taste it carefully later. Oh, by the way, I also brought some wine from home."

After saying that, Commander Liu walked to the gate of the courtyard and brought in the wine that he had placed by the door when he entered.

It’s the weekend: “But there don’t seem to be any wine glasses at home.”

Captain Zhou: "I have it at home. How about I go home and get it?"

Fu Huaichuan: "It's okay, the same goes for drinking water from a glass."

As they were talking, Fu Ning had already come over with a wine glass at Lin Xi's instruction.

Seeing this, Fu Huaichuan asked, "Where's Xixi?"

"Xixi is frying peanuts."

"Xiao Fu, go to the kitchen and tell your wife to stop working. There are so many dishes, it's enough for us to eat."

Fu Ning: "It's okay, uncle. Xixi, the only thing left to do is stir-fry the peanuts."

These days, men eat at the table while women eat in the kitchen, so Fu Huaichuan said, "Master, why don't we sit down and eat first?"

"It's okay. It's not too late to eat after your wife comes."

If it were any other time, Commander Liu and the others would have already sat down to eat, but because Fu Liangdong and the others were used to waiting for Lin Xi to sit down before eating, they were all standing aside, staring at the direction of the kitchen waiting for Lin Xi to arrive. So after hesitating for a moment, he decided to follow the Fu family's custom.

Fortunately, Lin Xi only had one dish left to make: fried peanuts with soy sauce.

So she served the last dish herself.

Seeing that everyone was standing in the yard looking in her direction, Lin Xi was stunned for a moment and said in surprise: "Fu Huaichuan, why don't you let everyone sit down to eat? Otherwise, the food will get cold soon. Everyone should stop standing and come down to sit down to eat. I don't know if the food I cooked suits everyone's appetite."

As Lin Xi was talking, he asked everyone to take their seats. At the same time, he said to Division Commander Liu and the others, "This fried peanuts will only taste good after it cools down. However, I cooked this pig's trotter and shank soup this afternoon. It's just right for eating now. Division Commander, you and the political commissar can try it and see if it suits your taste."

"Really? Let me try it."

Commander Liu picked up a piece of pig's trotter and put it in his mouth. He was immediately amazed when he took a bite.

Just like Lin Xi said, the meat has been stewed till it is tender and melts in your mouth. It is fatty but not greasy, moderately spicy and very delicious.

"It's delicious. You all should try it. Xixi, don't stand here and entertain us. Sit down and eat!"

Fu Huaichuan: "You go and have dinner. It's enough for me and Lao Zhou to be here."

"Yes, Xixi, go and eat quickly and don't stand here." Weekend echoed.

Lin Xi smiled and said, "Then I'll go eat."

"Go, go!" everyone said hurriedly.

In order to prevent Zhao Yufen and the other children from feeling uncomfortable, Fu Huaichuan and the others deliberately placed Lin Xi and the others' table a little further away from them.

Because Lin Xi hadn't come back yet, Zhao Yufen and the others were not in a hurry to take their seats.

Seeing this, Lin Xi said, "Sister-in-law, why are you all standing there? Hurry up and sit down to eat!"

After saying that, she placed Fu Liangxue next to her, and the two brothers Fu Ning and Fu Liangdong also took their seats one after another.

Zhou Hui had been hungry for a long time, but everyone was standing, so he didn't dare or feel embarrassed to sit at the table to eat before everyone was present like he did at home. So after hearing Lin Xi's words, he immediately sat down on the chair and was the first person to sit at the table. This made Zhao Yufen very unhappy, but she didn't show it in front of everyone.

After everyone sat down at the table, Lin Xi said, "Sister-in-law, you, Huihui, Yanyan, and Xiaoyi, please don't be embarrassed to eat!"

"There are so many dishes, just eat as much as you can."

As Lin Xi spoke, she stood up and picked up a large piece of pig's trotter for each of Zhao Yufen and her three children, and then picked up a piece for each of Fu Ning and Fu Liangdong. Taking into account that children cannot eat too spicy food, the dishes on their table were light, but even so, everyone ate very happily.

"Xixi, you eat too!"

Fu Ning saw that Lin Xi picked up some for everyone except himself.

He stood up and picked up a large piece of pig's trotter for Lin Xi.

Seeing the extra pig's trotters in the bowl, Lin Xi smiled and said, "Thank you Ningning."

Fu Ning: "You're welcome. Xixi, you've worked hard to cook. Eat more."

"You've all worked hard studying today, so let's all eat more."

Seeing that Zhao Yufen and Zhou Hui were not letting go, Lin Xi stood up decisively and scooped a large spoonful of each dish for them, causing Zhao Yufen to hurriedly stop her and said, "Xixi, if we want to eat, we should do it ourselves. Don't serve us any more food. Our bowls are full of four people!"

Lin Xi: "Who told you not to eat your own food? Since you are embarrassed to eat freely, I will have to work hard to scoop some for each dish for you."
