Chapter 192 - Consider a New Model (1/2)

“The takeout doesn’t taste bad, but it’s not as fragrant as the food you guys make… Children are just gluttony, so he refuses to eat the takeout.”

“No worries.” Xu Zhexian made an inviting gesture and said, “It’s fine. Let’s sit down and eat together. Our family won’t be able to finish an entire sheep’s leg.”

“How can I do that? I’ll pay according to the market price…” The man was about to take out his phone to pay, but Xu Zhexian stopped him.

Xu Le crossed his arms and said, “There’s no need to be so polite. The charcoal will burn out soon. It won’t taste good when the cold air blows on it later.”

The roasted sheep’s leg was covered in a layer of golden fragrance. The meat was delicate and chewy. Once it was torn open, the texture inside was fresh and tender. The fragrance of the chili was just right, and one could not stop eating it.

The group of them sat cross-legged on the lawn eating roasted the sheep’s leg. All of them were eating heartily and were extremely satisfied.

Beside them, the puppy’s tail was almost wagging off, as if it was on a mechanical motor.

Xu Tian tasted the unique flavor of the charred skin, so she carefully tore it off with her hand and fed it to her mother. Shen Hui’s heart melted from this action and she quickly sucked it carefully.

“Thank you, my dear Tiantian. Daddy and Mommy promise you that we’ll come back every year. Really!”

After saying that, she stretched out her pinky and hooked it with hers. Xu Tian smiled brightly and said in a childish voice, “Okay!”

A refreshing wind blew past his face. Xu Zhexian’s alcohol tolerance was ridiculously low. Two small glasses of beer made his face turn red like a ripe prawn. Then, he looked up at the sky and admired the moon in a daze.

“Woof, woof!”

The puppy suddenly jumped up and grabbed something with its mouth. Lu Yuxi looked over and saw many fireflies flashing in the night. Everyone looked over and was stunned.

The fireflies that had disappeared from the city for many years flapped their wings as if to make up for the lack of stars in the night sky. They fluttered their wings and moved around. Xu Tian reached out excitedly with an amazed expression.

“Brother, what is this!”

One firefly stopped on Xu Tian’s collar. She was expectant and afraid, not daring to reach out to touch it. She widened her eyes to observe its flickering tail.

Lu Yuxi shook her head and said, “How pitiful. In the city here, even the moon is covered by clouds at night. Fireflies are very common at my hometown.”

With that, she leaned forward and raised her eyebrows at Xu Le. “When you’re free, come to my house to play?”

“Hmph.” Xu Le deliberately said, “While you’re at it, sweep your dead husband’s grave.”

After the two of them learnt about each other’s identity, they tacitly never mentioned this matter. However, it was not a good idea to keep hiding. After Xu Le said it, Lu Yuxi did not have as big a reaction as he had imagined. She only nodded slightly.

However, he was sharp. When Lu Yuxi tilted her head to look at the fireflies flying in the sky, her soft and delicate earlobe was so red that it looked like it was about to drip blood.

After happily sharing the sheep’s leg with everyone, they planned to pack up and go home. The people who came to taste previously felt grateful and spontaneously helped them clean up the trash.

After taking a bite of the roasted sheep’s leg that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the barbecue they ordered was naturally despised. He felt that the enoki mushrooms were difficult to chew, the corn was too old, the pork belly was too cold and greasy, and the kidneys were fishy and smelly. In short, the roasted takeaway was packed and stuffed into the trash can.
