Chapter 1230 - 1251: The Shangguan Sisters and Bai Lu
"Are there many people from outside the village?" Luofeng asked, "How long will it take them to get here?"
"Only eight people, but I’ve heard that after school starts, more people from outside the village will come to study in our village." The little boy said, "It should only take about an hour, right? I can ask my dad to call their village head and inform them."
"Great, let’s do it that way." Luofeng thought for a moment, just an hour, then let’s get everyone together.
Then, Luofeng took out a box of chocolates from Shangguan Feier’s bag and handed it over, saying, "Here’s your fee for running errands, thank you."
"Thank you, brother!" The little boy’s eyes lit up immediately upon seeing the packaged chocolates.
In his understanding, it must be worth dozens of yuan.
But actually, was it already over a thousand?
But Luofeng didn’t care that the other party didn’t recognize the price.
After all, this wasn’t a matter of asking an upper-level to do something, right?
Shangguan Feier watched the little boy leave and teased, "Collecting Wuyang potatoes, brother? That’s hilarious, does my brother-in-law have such a nickname?"
Shangguan Shui’er also showed a smile.
"Ahem ahem!" Luofeng coughed twice, if it weren’t for fearing a bad influence, he’d really give these two little fools a hard time.
Then, Luofeng led the two toward the Bai Family Village’s elementary school.
Around seven or eight minutes later.
Luofeng and the others arrived at the school.
Bai Lu was looking around at the school entrance.
As Bai Lu saw Luofeng, the smile on her face gradually faded.
Because Bai Lu noticed the stunning Shangguan Feier and Shangguan Shui’er.
Bai Lu didn’t dislike these two people.
Rather, every time she saw them being so beautiful and having such great figures, she always felt inferior.
Bai Lu was also very clear about the relationship between the two sisters and Luofeng, but Bai Lu had always avoided this issue, and now this issue was right on her doorstep.
But Bai Lu is Bai Lu, she quickly started adjusting her mindset.
She just wanted Luofeng to stay by her side for a while, occasionally talk to him, watch him eat, and that was enough.
Just thinking like this.
Bai Lu would feel a bit better inside.
"Student Luo, Student Shangguan Feier, Student Shangguan Shui’er, welcome to our home!" Bai Lu smiled in greeting.
Baihua watched from afar as Luofeng held onto Shangguan Feier and Shangguan Shui’er.
It’s not just Luofeng holding two people.
Even if he was holding just one.
Baihua thought Bai Lu wouldn’t stand a chance.
Because these two girls are really pretty.
Luofeng smiled and said, "Student Bai Lu, what are we having for lunch?"
Luofeng’s straightforwardness made Bai Lu feel relieved, if Luofeng were overly polite, it would make Bai Lu uncomfortable.
"We’re having cured pork ribs, cured pork snouts, and free-range chicken stewed with mountain herbs. Does that sound okay?" Bai Lu asked.
"Of course, that’s fine." Luofeng said, then looked at the Zhongyi Tang personnel following behind, "Little Fu, go to the kitchen and lend a hand."
Because they were girls.
Luofeng arranged for the other party to help with cooking alongside Baihua.
Baihua immediately said, "No need, Bai Lu and I can handle it, it’s not proper to have guests doing the work!"
Bai Lu added on the side, "Mom, it’s okay!"
Luofeng laughed and said, "Yes, Auntie, there are many of us, not just me and the Shangguan sisters, but also four security personnel, the amount of food needed is quite large, working together will make it faster!"
Baihua nodded in agreement.
Around 2:30 in the afternoon.
Luofeng and his group finally finished lunch.
During the meal, Zhongyi Tang’s members were invited to the table by Baihua.
But they refused, and Luofeng didn’t say anything about it.
Luofeng didn’t have the typical mindset of a male protagonist in a time-travel novel, where everyone is equal and all meals should be shared? Please, just treat them kindly, why worry about insignificant things?
Besides, the table is only so big, right?
This lunch was quite good, Shangguan Feier and Shangguan Shui’er ate a lot of cured pork ribs, feeling they were even tastier than those in Tian Tian Le.
"Auntie, why is it that even though it’s not far apart, the cured pork ribs we eat from the self-built houses in Tian Tian Le village don’t taste as good as the ones here?" Shangguan Feier asked.
"I don’t know." Baihua shook her head.
Luofeng laughed, "I’m not entirely sure, but I think cured meat is greatly related to the climate. Besides the meat quality, the most crucial part of smoking meat is the leaves used and the climate; the altitude here is higher than Tian Tian Le, so the climate is probably the main reason."
Luofeng clearly understood that high-mountain cured meat is always better than that from lower mountains.
Isn’t it obviously because of that?
During the meal, Bai Lu noticed the Shangguan sisters giving Luofeng food, feeling uncomfortable inside, but did not react.
Bai Lu placed herself in a low position; otherwise, if it were other girls, such a situation would nearly cause a conflict.
After lunch, Zhongyi Tang’s people helped Baihua clean the table.
Shangguan Feier suggested, "We ate too much at noon, let’s take a walk?"
Shangguan Shui’er agreed, "Indeed, we ate too much, let’s digest it a bit; otherwise, it won’t be comfortable shaking around in the car later."
Bai Lu said, "Then how about we go for a walk outside the village? In the northwest direction of our village, there’s a patch of jujube forest, and it’s the flowering season, which is quite pretty."
Luofeng’s interest was piqued, and he asked, "Is it far?"
"Not too far, just fifteen minutes of walking, perfect for a stroll." Bai Lu said, "But the road isn’t great, take it slow and be careful!"
Shangguan Feier and Shangguan Shui’er looked at their Xiao Bai sneakers.
Luckily, they didn’t wear leather shoes.
"Alright then, let’s go check it out." Luofeng agreed.
And then they set out.
Bai Lu led the way ahead.
Luofeng and the Shangguan sisters followed closely behind.
The Zhongyi Tang security personnel were behind them.
On the way, Bai Lu said, "That patch of jujube forest consists entirely of sour jujubes. I ate them as a child, and it really made my teeth ache."
"Hahaha, a true warrior dares to eat sour jujubes." Luofeng joked.
Bai Lu said, "When sour jujubes ripen, they turn red and look sweet, but they’re actually very sour when eaten."
"When I was young, I didn’t know they were sour jujubes, so I fell for it." Bai Lu said nostalgically, perhaps reminiscing about the past.
