Reborn next door twins first grow up

Chapter 125 The best brother
"Oh? Lu Man wants to show off, there are enough dishes." Feng Wenqiu said, shaking his hands.

Lu Man pointed to the gift box on the ground: "Auntie, after all, the cake is part of the birthday ceremony. I made the decision on my own, so I don't buy it for you. I feel very sorry."

If Auntie Feng had no interest in cakes at all, then when Jia Er told her to order a cake, she would have said something to dissuade her.

The tacit agreement to buy a birthday cake shows that there is still some longing for the birthday ceremony.

Therefore, Lu Man felt that the small desserts alone were not enough, so he tried his best to make up for the small disappointments that Aunt Feng might have.

"You child, let's see what you said." Feng Wenqiu said indifferently, "Counting up 30 years, ordinary people in China eat cakes and a bowl of noodles on their birthdays, which means longevity. This is our ceremony."

"After all, tonight is different from the past."

Lu Man respectfully said: "I heard from Ling Yijia'er that you haven't been back to your hometown for a long time, auntie, so I bought some special products from Bocheng, such as Boshan Crispy Pot and Zhoucun Biscuits."

"Hey!" Ye Shitong's eyes lit up first, "I'm working in Guangdong Province, and I've been thinking about Zhoucun biscuits all the time! That's great, Haiqu sells them now?"

"Crispy pot?"

The delicacies of her hometown brought back memories of Feng Wenqiu's look. She stood there and kept scanning the packing box brought by Luman, her eyes sparkling faintly.

"Is there a store that sells crispy pots in Haiqu City?"

Feng Wenqiu asked slowly: "I've been to many stores to inquire, and they all said that this thing is out of Bo City, so it's hard to find."

"There is a newly built folk town by the sea."

Lu Man explained: "Because it is a tourist business card for other provinces, there is a complete collection of Lu province specialties, pancakes, donkey-hide gelatin, apples, green tea, including crispy pots, and now they are all there."

"In the scenic area?" Feng Wenqiu said strangely, "You child, how expensive is that!"

"Unexpectedly, when I celebrate my birthday outside Boshan, I can still eat crispy pot from my hometown."

Feng Wenqiu said softly: "Shitong, do you still remember the last time you celebrated your birthday at grandma's house? Your grandfather made a crispy pot with his own hands."

"Ah? Is there?" Ye Shitong asked.

"That's because you are still young, so I don't remember." Feng Wenqiu looked up, "How many years..."

She glanced at Lu Man, her eyes filled with relief and love: "Lu Man, thank you, you really have a heart."

"Auntie, what you said is that we are bothering you."

Lu Man looked at the twin sisters: "Lingyi and Jia'er have been taken care of by you. I think their treatment really catches up with Sister Shitong's own daughter standards. Taking advantage of the birthday, we thank you very much."

"Don't talk about me." Ye Shitong laughed, "Your Aunt Feng has a free-range policy for me, and the standard of a daughter is not good. I am too wronged by the guests."

"You are poor."

Feng Wenqiu turned to look at Lu Man again: "The ready-made vacuum-packed crispy pot, just heat it up. Lu Man, sit and drink tea, and I'll get it."

"Aunt Feng, let me come."

Lu Man picked up another bag as if he had robbed it from a treasure chest: "I bought some small fish and shrimps. I have eaten a delicious dish from Bocheng before, called Xiaoyuer Noodle Pepper. This time I will make some Do."

"This..." Feng Wenqiu was even more surprised, "You still know this?"

That was the special delicacy she ate at the lakeside when she went to swim in the Mata Lake when she was a child.

Gu Lingyi chimed in for Lu Man, "Auntie, you are the protagonist today, so come and watch TV with us, and give brother a chance to show off his skills."

Speaking of this, Feng Wenqiu was already quite moved, she nodded and refused to refuse.

Sitting on the sofa, Feng Wenqiu touched Gu Jiaer's cold little hands: "This kid Lu Man treats people with all his heart."

"And for you." Feng Wenqiu patted Gu Jiaer's hand lightly.

"Jia'er, go back and talk to him. With his down-to-earth and serious heart, Wen Yi won't dislike him."

Feng Wenqiu really felt Lu Man's hard work this time.

Not to mention the change of dessert cakes, he remembered her elder's hometown, specially bought special products from the remote seaside wilderness, studied special recipes, and cooked with effort, just for Make her birthday feel with an extra layer of hometown vibes.

How could she be dissatisfied with Lu Man after reaching this point?

"Auntie~"

Gu Jia'er lowered her head, and her previously downcast expression was wiped away a lot at this moment: "What are you talking about..."

……

Ten minutes later, a small birthday party started.

"cheers!"

Glasses of lemonade and orange juice collide.

Feng Wenqiu cooks a table of dishes without heavy oil and salt, but they are also rich.

Braised pork platter, money fish floss salad, several vegetarian dishes and mushrooms.

Relatively oily and salty, there is also the Boshan Crispy Pot brought by Lu Man, which is bubbling and steaming in the middle of the table.

As a traditional local winter vegetable dish, the crispy pot has the characteristics of stewing all kinds of flavors. In Boshan area, every family makes crispy pots, and none of them can repeat the same. When it comes to seasons and new year festivals, if you have any fish and vegetables at home, you can add them to the casserole. , each Nianyu's ingredients are different, so Baiwei makes Baiwei.

This crispy pot packed in a gift box has lotus root, kelp, pork skin, fish pieces, trotters, pork ribs, frozen tofu, layered on top of each other and topped with cabbage.

The crispy pot is stewed with vinegar seasoning, and the meat and fish bones are crispy.Supplemented with scallion and ginger seasoning, after the fire is hot, the pot will be full of aroma.

There are also small fish noodle peppers made by Lu Man.

The fresh fish and shrimp are very tender after frying. Mix a bowl of thick batter with oily chili or shrimp paste, stew it with the fish and shrimp, put down the sugar and salt, and garnish with the last trace of sesame oil.

A few girls couldn't stop their chopsticks, and they had no scruples at home. The dishes on the table were full of color and fragrance, and they tasted delicious.

Time passed slowly, blowing out candles and making a wish when the birthday was approaching.

The girls put out small dessert cakes, but Lu Man was not thinking about it, and looked at his phone from time to time.

Gu Jiaer kept paying attention to Lu Man, and she touched Lu Man with her shoulder: "What's the matter? Is there something wrong at work?"

"It's nothing." Lu Man shook his head, but what he was thinking in his heart was, why hasn't "that thing" come here, won't he?
Fortunately, at this time, the doorbell rang.

"I'll drive." Lu Man stood up and ran to the door.

After opening the door, a student-looking boy appeared in front of him holding a double-layered fruit cake.

"Brother Lu, your..."

"Shh-"

Lu Man signaled him to keep silent: "Thank you, and thank Ugly God for me."

"Where is there, senior brother, then I'm leaving?"

"Hey, take it easy."

Lu Man carried the brand new two-tier cake and walked to the living room.

Gu Jiaer and Gu Lingyi were holding pig's trotters in their mouths. Seeing this scene, their hands holding chopsticks stopped.

"Brother?" Gu Jiaer blinked her eyes in surprise and joy.

"Gu Lingyi, Gu Jiaer."

Lu Man made an unhappy expression on his face: "You are not allowed to buy cakes, you must buy them, right?"

"Ah?" Gu Jiaer stared with wide almond eyes.

"I..." Gu Lingyi didn't understand the situation for a moment.

"Auntie, take care of your two eldest nieces."

Lu Man pretended to be reproachful, and then his face changed into a playful smile: "These two girls are so good at loving people."

"Hey, why don't I get this kind of treatment." Lu Man sighed, "It's better to have a good relationship with beauties."

Lu Man put the cake on the table firmly: "You two ordered it, do it yourself, divide the knife and fork, and light the candles."

Gu Lingyi and Gu Jiaer were puzzled, when did they book again?But they met each other's eyes, but they didn't show it.

"Look at you."

Feng Wenqiu witnessed all this, as if being blown by a warm and gentle wind, her eyes were full of surprises.

"Isn't this the same thing? My senior's birthday has cost you juniors a lot."
