Chapter 277 It’s Delicious
Xiao Lu is an ordinary office worker.

After a busy day at work, he returned home exhausted, only to see Dad Lu lying alone on the sofa watching TV.

"Where's my mother?"

Xiao Lu walked into the house while changing his shoes.

Dad Lu happily watched the variety show on TV without even turning his eyes away:

"She made an appointment with those old sisters to go square dancing again."

Xiao Lu couldn't help but sigh with envy.

Look at his parents——

One is obsessed with health preservation, square dancing and dating old sisters;
A man who loves fishing, watching TV and bragging in teahouses.

The lives of the two elders are colorful.

In comparison, a social animal like him is just a useless salted fish.

Xiao Lu worked overtime late today and missed meal time, so he is starving.

He was not shameless enough to ask his father, who was over 60 years old, to get up and cook for him, so he prepared to go to the kitchen to find some food.

When I entered the kitchen, I saw several large boxes piled in the corner.

Little Lu was used to it, and asked his father:

"My mom is buying random things again?"

Dad Lu was still staring at the TV:

"Yes! Your mom seemed to have watched some live broadcast, saying that this food can help maintain your health, so she bought it specially!"

Xiao Lu sighed:

"Why don't you try to persuade her? She keeps watching live broadcasts and moving things home all day long. What health food is that? It's all a lie! They just put some flour in there to cheat old people like you out of your money!"

Although he was complaining, Xiao Lu did not stop and opened one of the boxes on the spot.

After seeing what was inside, Xiao Lu showed the expression I expected:

"The packaging is so earthy, it really hits the aesthetic of the elderly perfectly."

He muttered, but not loudly.

He was afraid that his father would hear it and tell his mother.

Xiao Lu picked one up at random and scanned the words on it:

"Five-spice cake, Cuishui Town Food Factory... What kind of product is this without any certification? Isn't it poisonous?"

Having said that, it didn't stop him from opening a bag and stuffing the pastries inside into his mouth.

Originally, I had the mentality of "testing poison".

But when Xiao Lu really tasted the five-spice cake, his eyes widened instantly in disbelief!
So... so delicious!

The taste is very unique, not something that everyone can accept, but it suits Xiao Lu's taste very much.

The cake is snow-white, soft, delicate and silky. When you take a sip of it, you can smell the faint bitter medicinal aroma unique to this five-spice cake.

If you taste it more carefully, you seem to be able to detect a hint of sweetness from the medicinal aroma.

The more you taste it, the sweeter it becomes, and the more fragrant it becomes!

When Xiao Lu came to his senses, he had already finished the first bag of five-spice cakes and started to open the second bag...

"Ouch! You opened your mom's package? And you ate her food?"

During the commercial break, Dad Lu went to the kitchen to pour hot water and showed a sympathetic look to his son, saying, "You're doomed."

Xiao Lu cleared his throat uncomfortably:
"How can you call it stealing when it's something belonging to your family? I'm just trying to taste it! To test for poison!"

As he said that, he quickly stuffed the second piece of five-spice cake into his mouth.

He was satisfied only when his mouth was filled to the brim.

Father Lu looked at his son suspiciously: "Is it so delicious?"

It’s not that he doesn’t trust his son, but that he doesn’t trust his wife.

They usually buy so many health-preserving foods and super foods, all of which can help them regain their youth.

Unfortunately, it was all a bunch of tasteless and expensive garbage, and it all ended up in the mouths of the father and son.

After too many similar experiences, he no longer believes in these exaggerated fraudulent products.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Lu nodded vigorously:

"Yeah! It's really delicious! Ask mom where she bought it. I want to buy some too!"

He didn't know if it was his illusion, but after eating the five-spice cake, he actually felt warm all over his body, and the fatigue brought by a whole day of busy overtime work seemed to be relieved.

...Maybe it's the special effect brought by deliciousness?
Xiao Lu doesn't know.

Then he opened the fourth piece of five-spice cake and put it in his mouth, and at the same time became very curious about the other boxes.

Dad Lu couldn't resist his curiosity and tried to take a piece of the five-spice cake and took a bite.

His eyes widened:

"Yeah! It's really delicious!"

Older people like them are more accepting of things with a medicinal taste.

This made him praise it on the spot:
"I didn't expect your mom could actually buy good stuff!"

He thought that the money he spent on health supplements every month was thrown into the water!
"Is it delicious?"

As Xiao Lu spoke, he squatted in front of another express box, opened it, and then found another whole box of pastries inside. The packaging was similar to the five-spice cakes just now, but the words printed on the individual small packages in this box were "Su Huang Du".

Compared to the five-spice cake that he had never heard of, Xiao Lu was not unfamiliar with the Suhuangdu cake. He also knew that it was an ancient pastry made from cooked taro.

He had eaten authentic crispy yellow du when he went to Suzhou before, and was quite impressed. But he remembered that this kind of snack needed to be fried, so how could it be made into packaged food?
Because of the five-spice cake just now, Xiao Lu developed a great curiosity and decisively opened a piece of crispy yellow cake.

Different from the crispy yellow mullet he had eaten in Suzhou, this piece of crispy yellow mullet was equally crispy and delicious. It retained the taste of frying but was less greasy. It was very special.

Xiao Lu took a light bite, and the whole piece of crispy yellow taro turned into crumbs in his mouth. The strong aroma of taro burst out in his mouth, and the aroma of nuts could be faintly tasted.

Delicious! So delicious! It's simply divine!

Xiao Lu, who was already hungry, ate four or five pieces of crispy yellow mulberry in one breath.

At the same time, he became more interested in the remaining two boxes and decided to open them all to have a look...

Mother Lu went home humming a song, preparing to take the newly bought pastries to share with her old sisters in the square dance team.

As soon as she entered the room, she found the living room empty. Only the TV was playing, but the person lying on the sofa was nowhere to be found.

"Where are the people? The brat hasn't come back either?"

Mother Lu walked into the kitchen, confused.

In an instant, her figure froze.

In front of her, her troublesome father and son were squatting on the ground with several large opened express boxes in front of them and the trash can next to them was full of discarded pastry packaging bags.

...Wait, isn’t this the pastry she just received this afternoon?
"You and your son came and ate all my cakes?"

Mother Lu glared angrily.

Immersed in the joy of delicious food, Xiao Lu slowly turned around and smiled dryly:

"Mom, you misunderstood. I haven't finished it yet. There's still half left..."

But this did not stop Lu's mother from getting furious.

The father and son were beaten so hard that they ran away in panic.

However, the lost pastries will not come back.

Xiao Lu felt very aggrieved:
“If it’s gone, buy more.”

"What do you know? I worked so hard to get these!"
