"He went to the market to buy vegetables. Xiaoyi and Xiaoyi followed him. They haven't come back yet."

As Hu Lemei spoke, she took out a bottle of water from the refrigerator and handed it to Hu Qi.

"How do your legs feel? You've lost a lot of weight lately."

"It's okay, I'm much better!"

Hu Qi didn't know what to say for a moment, so he just nodded in response.

He actually didn't lose weight. On the contrary, due to practicing mixed martial arts and eating large amounts at every meal, his weight even increased.

It's just because he was wearing a coat, and the body fat was reduced due to exercise, his muscles became firmer, and his body was shaped, so he looked a little thinner than before.

The two of them were chatting with each other.

Not long after, the guests at that table who were eating got up to pay the bill and leave.

After a while.

A small red-painted tricycle was parked at the door.

"Xiao Qi is here!"

A middle-aged man who looked three-quarters like Li Yi walked in carrying a few bags of vegetables.

The man had an honest face, broad shoulders and a big waist, and looked more like a butcher who slaughtered pigs and sold meat.

This person is Hu Lemei’s husband, Li Zhenguo.

Following behind him were Li Yi and a young woman.

The woman had a fair complexion and short black hair that reached her shoulders.

She wore a plain white shirt with the collar buttoned to the second button, which perfectly showed off her slender neck.

The cuffs of his shirt were neatly rolled up, making him look smart and neat.

She paired it with a pair of dark blue straight jeans with the cuffs slightly rolled up, revealing her slender ankles, and a pair of white sneakers on her feet.

The whole person exudes a capable and neat temperament.

When he saw Hu Qi, Li Yi just nodded slightly with a faint expression.

Hu Qi was not surprised by this.

According to the original owner's memory, although Li Yi is only one year older than the original owner, he is mature in character, successful in academics, and has always been the child of other people's families.

She looked down on the original owner's cousin who didn't even go to college.

Coupled with the original owner's previous strange behavior, it undoubtedly deepened her view.

The original owner felt inferior when facing this cousin who was admitted to a key university at a young age and had a bright future. She always felt inferior in front of her.

This is also one of the reasons why the original owner didn’t like coming to his aunt’s house.

But this was nothing to Hu Qi, he nodded calmly.

After calling her cousin, she didn't say anything else.

Such an attitude surprised Li Yi.

The other party's demeanor seemed different from Hu Qi's previous demeanor.

But she didn't think much about it. She had also heard about what happened to the other party recently, so she just thought that he might have suffered some setbacks and his mentality had changed.

Unfortunately, it’s hard to change one’s nature.

She felt disdainful.

After a brief greeting, Li Zhenguo went to the kitchen on the second floor to start working.

Hu Lemei gave some instructions and went into the kitchen to help prepare the side dishes.

The store is usually run by Hu Lemei and Li Zhenguo. The former is responsible for serving food and taking bills, while the latter is in charge of kitchen matters.

Only during the busiest one or two hours during meal times will we hire a few part-time workers to help.

However, due to the rise of street stall culture in the past two years, the restaurant business is not doing well, and the couple can barely cope with it normally.

Li Yi came over.

"Brother Qi, let's go and play a game together."

He chuckled, took out his cell phone, and showed a loading tower defense game.

Hu Qi had nothing to do, so he simply agreed.

He downloaded the game and played two games when he was bored one night, and it was quite playable.

……

"Brother Qi, hurry up, the opponent is seriously injured!"

Li Yi shouted excitedly. "No, this is the Da Can you mention?"

Hu Qi looked at the three guys with full health jumping out of the bushes speechlessly and knocking him out one by one. He felt helpless.

"It's a big disability, right? Maybe you are too slow, Brother Qi, and the other party has recovered his health."

Faced with this situation, Li Yi pushed the black-framed glasses on his nose and defended himself stubbornly.

The two of them had only played one game when customers came to the store.

Afterwards, guests came in groups of three or four one after another.

Most of these people were wearing dark blue, white and gray work clothes. They were workers from nearby garment factories, while some were residents living nearby.

After a while, the store was full of people.

Because of the summer vacation, the original college student hourly workers are naturally not there.

At the beginning, Li Yi and Li Yi were still able to handle the situation, but later on, there were too many guests coming at once.

Hu Qi also had to roll up his sleeves and start helping.

Because of his training in martial arts, Hu Qi's physical fitness has improved and his movements are very agile.

This scene made Hu Lemei feel a little surprised.

You know, when the other party came before, the most he could do was to help settle the accounts.

During this time, through the conversations between the guests, Hu Qi realized that today was the Peace Festival of the Xia Federation.

The meaning of this festival is family reunion, auspiciousness and harmony. Generally, people will get together with their relatives and friends to have a meal during this festival.

Therefore, it also explains why the store is so busy today.

Soon, it was half past eight in the evening.

At this point, the guests left one after another.

When most of the guests had left, only one table was still drinking.

Hu Qi and others also sat around the table and started eating.

On the table, there are grilled fish, clay pot chicken, several stir-fried dishes, cold dishes, and barbecue.

The aroma is overflowing and very rich.

"Xiao Qi, you've worked hard today. If you hadn't come, I might not have been able to handle it today.

Come, have some braised yellow eel. I brought it from my hometown. It’s wild and has high nutritional value.”

At this time, Hu Lemei spoke and placed a plate of braised eel in front of Hu Qi.

On the white porcelain plate, a dish of braised yellow eel is particularly tempting.

The thick brown-red soup wraps around the curved eel segments, giving off a shiny luster.

The eel pieces are thick and evenly cut, with slightly charred edges, tender and juicy inside, and the meat is firm and elastic.

The top is garnished with some green chopped green onions and finely minced garlic.

Hu Qi thanked him and put two pieces in the bowl.

"Xiaoyi, Xiaoyi, you guys eat too."

Hu Lemei greeted Li Yi and Li Yi.

The former only picked up a piece, while the latter Li Yi shook his head with a look of disgust.

"This thing looks too scary, I'd better eat something else."

"You are such a picky eater, no wonder you are so thin..."

Hu Qi watched this scene without saying anything.

He picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it in his mouth.

In his previous life, he had been a chef for more than ten years and had eaten all kinds of food.

Lizards, snakes, and toads have all been cooked.

Since you are cooking, it is natural to taste the flavor.

He closed his mouth, exerted gentle force with his teeth, and after some chewing, a piece of eel bone came out of his mouth.

However, just as he swallowed the eel meat in his mouth, Hu Qi's movements froze slightly.

Followed by.

There was a hint of disbelief and ecstasy in the depths of his eyes.

　Thanks to man, Mr. Youshou with Emotions, Tianzi Daozhu, Lihentianyier, Xiaoluo, Xumi Jue, Zhuzhushao and other big guys for the rewards of Qidian coins, as well as the monthly tickets and recommendation votes of all the big guys. Three grams of oil!
