Reiki Recovery: Gamification of Reality

Chapter 112 Charcoal Grilled King Crab

Xu Bai looked at the time on his watch, then raised his head and looked at Su Meng who was standing in front of him, who was wearing a white down jacket with a baby face on her face.

Uh……

Just 10 minutes ago, Su Meng suddenly called Xu Bai who was browsing the game mall at home, saying that he would be at the gate of the community in 10 minutes.

When Xu Bai received the call, he thought he had misread the time.

result……

08:30?
"Didn't you say before that it might not end until around 10:30 in the evening?"

"Yes."

"Then how..."

Xu Bai was a little curious. The most important point was that he had booked a spot with Lao Niu, which was at 10:30. Suddenly, he came so early in advance, and Lao Niu's barbecue restaurant might have no more seats.

wrong.

It should be in time.

Xu Bai recalled that when he just came down, he glanced upstairs in the direction of the Laoniu BBQ restaurant. There were not many people going to eat barbecue, and the tables outside the store had not yet been set up.

In fact, it wasn't just him who was curious about why it was so early.

Su Meng was also curious about this.

"I don't know. In the past, when I celebrated my birthday, there was no one that could end before 10:30."

"Then this time?"

"My mom said this time was different."

But when Su Meng asked, Su Ruyu didn't say anything.

And it's not just such a thing that makes Su Meng curious.

"That's right, master!"

Su Meng thought of the weird gifts this year, and said to Xu Bai as a funny thing: "Master, you don't know, the gifts they gave this year are also weird."

Xu Bai looked at Su Meng.

Su Meng immediately took it as a joke, and told Xu Bai that those people not only gave gifts to themselves, but also their parents, father-in-law, mother-in-law, and seven aunts and eight aunts. .

This has never happened before.

After Su Meng finished speaking, she looked at Xu Bai: "Are you saying it's amazing, master, it's never been like this before."

Xu Bai smiled and squinted his eyes: "It's pretty amazing."

Don't think about it.

This must be another moth created by Lao Fu and Lao Huang.

These two old guys.

Xu Bai was a little speechless, he had already asked Wang Qiang to run over to warn the two of them, but it turned out that the two of them were fine, and the guests returned it to them, but what is the difference between what you did and what you did before?
The previous practice was to steal away the host's role.

Come to the door with a gift, this anti-customer nature is obviously worse, okay?

Xu Bai had a headache, and looked at Su Meng: "By the way, Mom, don't you have any objections?"

Su Meng shook her head: "No, what's the matter."

It's fine if you don't have an opinion.

Although Su Ruyu is not his mother-in-law, it is unlikely to become his mother-in-law.

But Su Ruyu is his apprentice's mother after all, and she is also the big boss of Fengcheng Commercial Bank. From the perspective of pure interpersonal relationship, it is better not to offend her if she can.

Xu Bai thought so in his heart.

"Let's go, I invite you to have a barbecue."

"Ah."

Su Meng's face was full of joy and anticipation, and she nodded heavily. Compared with the tens of thousands of seafood meals prepared for her at home, she was more looking forward to the barbecue that her master invited her to eat for a hundred dollars.

"master."

"Ok?"

"There shouldn't be many people tonight."

"not much."

Xu Bai shook his head and said, "When I came here just now, I took a look, and there were not many people."

Su Meng nodded, oh.

soon.

Xu Bai led Su Meng to the door of Lao Niu's barbecue restaurant.

next second.

Xu Bai was dumbfounded.

Su Meng next to her couldn't help opening her mouth wide, and looked at Xu Bai: "Master, this is what you defined, there are not many people?"

Xu Bai's heart skipped a beat.

In the barbecue restaurant at this moment, there are not many people from Liao Wu that Xu Bai just saw on the corridor.

into the eye.

Lao Niu's barbecue shop is not only full of customers, even the entrance of the shop is full of people who come to eat barbecue.

Looking around, there is almost no place to set foot.

but……

There is a very strange place.

In the center of the crowd at the entrance of the shop, there was an empty table with no one seated.

right in the middle.

A real head table.

The well-deserved C position.

It seems that these people who come to eat barbecue are blind, and they don't see such a good central location.

But someone saw it.

"Master, look quickly, there is one last table."

"..."

Su Meng saw it, her eyes lit up, fearing that she might not even get the last seat, she hurriedly dragged Xu Bai towards the empty table.

When Xu Bai came to his senses, Su Meng had already taken his seat first, and Xu Bai who sat down could almost clearly feel that at this moment, from all directions, all shots came from the corner of his eye, and landed on the There are many eyes on Su Meng.

Su Meng didn't seem to notice it at all, but happily waved her hands: "Boss, come quickly, order!"

The words fall.

The old cow seemed to be waiting in the shop for a long time, with a smile on his face, he trotted all the way to the table of the two.

Xu Bai didn't speak, just watched Lao Niu's performance silently.

He seriously doubted whether someone had tipped off the news when he just went downstairs to pick up Su Meng, so, while he was picking up Su Meng, these neighbors who didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement came here to occupy seats up.

Without him.

Xu Bai just glanced around with his corner of the eye. Everyone present here counts as one, and the youngest one is over 50 years old and lives in the old neighbors of the old factory.

And he was already sure that he knew who the ghost who tipped off the news was.

Xu Bai squinted his eyes, his gaze passed over the shoulder of the old cow who had a flickering expression, avoiding his gaze, and landed on the person sitting on the table in the corner with his head down, lowering his sense of existence as much as possible.

Wang Qiang lowered his head and muttered silently.

"Can't see me, can't see me, can't see me."

"……master."

"Ah."

Xu Bai wrote down Wang Qiang in his little notebook, came back to his senses, looked at Su Meng who was speaking, and said with a smile, "What's the matter."

Su Meng handed the menu to Xu Bai: "Master, do you still have charcoal-grilled king crab?"

Xu Bai raised his eyebrows.

charcoal grilled...

King crab?
You are an old cow who specializes in cheap barbecue, when will you be able to buy such high-end ingredients.

Hearing Su Meng's words, Xu Bai took the menu and looked at it. Then, seeing the five words shining brightly on it, he also looked at Lao Niu with some puzzlement: "Charcoal-grilled king crab?"

The old cow looked serious: "Yes, just entered."

talking.

The old cow coughed.

Xu Bai laughed happily.

at this time.

On a table next to it, the 52-year-old, but stylishly dressed old Wang with a bullet head said, "Lao Niu, didn't you say that anyone who celebrates his birthday will be given a king crab, my king! Where are the crabs?"

Birthday, send?
Su Meng caught the key words, and her eyes lit up.

The corner of Xu Bai's mouth twitched.

He knew what Lao Niu was doing.

Hearing Lao Wang's words, Lao Niu turned his head and shouted at Lao Wang, "Shut up, your birthday is too early, you think I don't know."

Su Meng raised her hand smartly: "Well, boss, it's my birthday today, do you have any gift?"

The old cow turned his head back and looked at Su Meng suspiciously.

"You, today's birthday?"

"Uh-huh."

"Really or not, do you have any proof? If it's really your birthday, I'll give it to you. Don't worry, I'm an old cow, and I'm as good as I promise."

"Yes, I have my ID card."

Xu Bai didn't speak, just crossed his arms and looked at Lao Niu expressionlessly.

A look like, come on, I'll watch you perform.

Su Meng spoke hastily, and then found the small bag behind her, opened the bag, found her identity from it, and handed it to Lao Niu.

"Boss, look, this is my ID card, look, today is my birthday."

"It really is."

Lao Niu took the ID card half-believingly, and looked at Su Meng's date of birth: "November 21, [-] in the federal calendar, today is really your birthday."

With a sincere expression, Su Meng took the ID card handed back by Lao Niu: "Boss, I didn't lie to you, today is really my birthday."

The old cow patted his chest: "No problem, I will send king crabs for my birthday, sure, don't worry, I will add it to you!"

Su Meng's face was full of joy: "Great, thank you boss."

The old cow smiled, turned around and walked towards the inside of the shop.

Su Meng turned her head to look at Xu Bai behind her, and blinked: "Master?"

Xu Bai's eyes fell behind him, and there was the table where the famous old lady of Jiuchang Street had fallen. Just now, after Lao Niu loudly said Su Meng's birth date, he saw that the old lady of Jiuchang took out the paper and With a pen, I drew circles on it from time to time.

And the five aunts sitting at the same table with the Jiuchang Goddess are all well-known matchmakers in Jiuchang Street.

Through the hands of these five matchmakers, there are more than a thousand couples who have made good marriages, not to mention the whole Fengcheng, but just in Jiuchang Street.

A witch.

Five matchmakers.

hiss!
Xu Bai gasped inwardly.

What are they doing?
Just when Xu Bai was about to get up and run to find out, he heard Su Meng's voice, turned his head, looked at Su Meng's eyes, and smiled, "What's wrong?"

Su Meng looked around at the dark crowd and said in a low voice, "Master, there are a lot of people."

Xu Bai hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "Lao Niu's barbecue shop has always been doing very well."

Forget it.

The ugliness cannot be made public.

Xu Bai thought for a while, but still didn't tell, these people can't say 90.00%, it can be said that 100% of the people here, except that their table is here to really eat barbecue, the rest, one table counts as one table, they are basically Not here for BBQ.

They are here to eat melons.

and……

The food is still the kind of live melon.

Wait for me.

Looking back to settle accounts with you.

Xu Bai squinted his eyes, smiled and chatted with Su Meng, and then began to daydream in his heart, waiting for tomorrow, how to repay these people for eating melons.
