It's getting later and later.

Lu Ao drove Goose and Song Zhou home slowly.

Their village is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces the sea on one side, with beautiful mountains and clear waters.

Now the sun is setting in the west, the sky is dyed red with colorful clouds, and the evening breeze has swept away the heat of the day.

The two of them drove the geese and walked through the vast deserted fields. There was no need to rush back, they just wanted to wait for time to pass slowly.

Lu Ao was afraid that Song Zhou wouldn't be used to it, so he turned around and asked him, "Do you find this particularly troublesome?"

"No, it's very warm." Song Zhou turned around and smiled, "I haven't lived such a peaceful life for a long time."

"Why?" Lu Ao was puzzled, "Your abnormal personnel supervision agency is very busy?"

"That's not true." Song Zhou paused for a moment, and before Lu Ao asked, he took the initiative and said, "It's just that it's very boring."

"Um?"

Song Zhou slightly bent his eyes, but had no intention of saying any more.

The two returned to Lu Ao's house. Lu Ao drove the geese into the goose pen, gave them food and water, and then returned to the yard.

Songzhou drank tea comfortably.

Lu Ao went to check the contents of the basket in front of him, and quickly found six rice dumplings, a large box of bayberry, and two large boxes of unknown items, which were heavy in his hands.

Lu Ao raised his eyes and asked Song Zhou with his eyes.

Song Zhoudao: "This is lunch in our yard, one cold dish and one fried pork ribs. I thought you would like it, so I brought you one."

There was very little that Lu Ao didn't like about food. He put the box on the small table, moved a chair and sat across from Song Zhou, quite curious, "Then I opened it?"

"open it."

Lu Ao opened the lid, feeling cool and hot at the same time.

The cold ones are cold dishes, and the hot ones are fried pork ribs.

I didn’t know that Songzhou preserved it so well. The cold dish was very juicy, the cucumber was green, the leaves were green, and it was dotted with green and red pepper rings. There was no oxidation and darkening of the cold dish after being stored for a long time.

Looking at the ribs again, these ribs are all meat chops, with small bones and lots of meat. The meat looks very tender, and the fat on it seems to be bubbling, and the strong aroma is steaming up with the heat.

Lu Ao couldn't help but swallowed, "It smells so good!"

Song Zhou's eyes slightly curved, "I guessed you would like it."

"I like pork ribs very much. They look delicious." Lu Ao stood up excitedly, "Wait a minute, I'll get some bowls and chopsticks."

"good."

Lu Ao quickly walked into the kitchen and came out with sterilized dishes and chopsticks.

"Come, let's eat together."

Songzhou refused, "You can eat it, I didn't bring much."

"How can there be any reason to eat alone in front of guests?" Lu Aoying put the bowl and chopsticks in front of Song Zhou, and then went to take apart the rice dumplings to eat, "Hmm? Two kinds of fillings?"

"Yes, one kind of fresh meat and one kind of egg yolk."

"It smells so good. Is this also the skill of your yard chef?"

"Yes, in order to celebrate the festival, I didn't pack much."

The zongzi is not big, only about the size of a duck egg.

Lu Ao took a bite, and it was half, just enough to bite off half of the filling.

What he ate was meat stuffing, probably pork belly stuffing, half fat and half thin. When he bit it into his mouth, the fragrance of the glutinous rice and the strong fragrance of the meat exploded in his mouth, making his mouth water.

When he chewed it, he discovered that the rice dumpling was not only filled with meat, but also had something like mustard inside. It squeaked when chewed, which just relieved the greasy taste of the meat.

This meat dumpling is really amazing.

Lu Ao tasted another egg yolk rice dumpling.

I don’t know if this egg yolk is a duck egg, but it tastes salty and delicious, with an obvious sandy feeling. When paired with the glutinous rice, it is fragrant and sweet, and the rich flavor makes people can’t help but savor it.

After eating two rice dumplings in a row, Lu Ao felt a little tired, so he picked up the cold vegetables with his chopsticks.

As soon as the dish enters the mouth, first the fresh taste of cucumber spreads in the mouth, suppressing the greasy taste in the throat, and then the leaves of some unknown vegetable are crisp and delicious, mixed with the slightly sour and spicy cold sauce, very appetizing

.

After finishing the salad, let’s have another piece of pork ribs.

The ribs are still very hot, so you have to blow on them before eating them.

The pork ribs are very tender. It rarely has the bloody smell caused by being directly marinated without blanching. It tastes like pure meat, wrapped in a thick sauce. You can tear off a large piece of meat with just a light tear with your teeth.

Come and make people feel more satisfied.

Especially after eating the meat, there are just a few bones inside, unlike ordinary spareribs that have less meat and more bones.

Lu Ao narrowed his eyes with satisfaction, "Your chef's skills are really good."

"If you like it, I'll bring it to you next time."

"Okay. I'll also send you fish to eat then."

Song Zhou said: "Didn't you send it to me last time?"

"That's different. Last time I sent it to you to eat, but this time I sent it to the people in your organization to eat together." Lu Ao looked at him, "I sent you fish last time, didn't you bring it over too?"

Song Zhou said: "I'm not very good at cooking."

Lu Ao was curious, "In that case, can't you ask the chef in your yard to help cook it?"

"He can do it, but he doesn't like to do it. You will know later."

Song Zhou talked about something about their abnormal personnel supervision agency. Lu Ao ate and listened, which was quite eye-opening.

After eating the rice dumplings and side dishes, Lu Ao packed up the basket and found a bracelet made of colorful silk threads at the bottom of the basket.

He picked it up and looked at it, "What is this?"

"The Bai Suo Zi worn during the Dragon Boat Festival." Song Zhou said: "People here used to have the custom of wearing Bai Suo Zi during the Dragon Boat Festival. I don't know if it still exists now, so I brought one to you by the way."

Lu Ao had never heard of this custom, but Songzhou gave it to him, so he put it on his wrist.

This Baisuozi is quite beautiful. It is made of red, green, yellow, white and black silk threads, with a silver bead strung in the middle. It looks very special.

After Lu Ao put it on, he asked: "How long will it take to take off this hundred strings?"

"Anyone is fine, but it's best to wear it for a year and replace it with a new one next year."

Lu Ao responded and stretched.

Lu Ao had just finished eating and it was not completely dark yet. He didn't want to move and sat lazily on the chair.

Songzhou didn't rush him, and the two of them drank tea and talked.

As night fell, we heard the sound of motorcycles coming from far away, followed by the clanging of the courtyard door.

Lu Ao went over to open the door, and there was Lin Gongshang's figure at the door.

He was carrying a big basket. When he saw Lu Ao, he stuffed the big basket over and said, "Lu Ao, my rice dumplings are wrapped. My mother asked me to bring you some rice dumplings."

Lu Ao reached out and took it. The basket was heavy, at least more than ten kilograms.

He was startled, uncovered the cloth on the basket, looked down, and found that the basket was not only filled with half a basket of rice dumplings, but also a small half of a basket of lychees. "Isn't this too much? How can I eat it alone?"

"Why can't you eat it?" Lin Gongshang waved his hand, "Your refrigerator is so big, just put it in the refrigerator and heat it up in the morning and evening for breakfast or midnight snack, and you can finish it in a few meals."

Lu Ao said: "Why are there so many lychees?"

Lin Gongshang smiled honestly and said, "It's okay. Just take it and eat it. Lychees are not expensive this year."

The folks in the village and Lin Gong merchants sent it to me with good intentions, but Lu Ao couldn't accept it.

After thanking him, he poured out the rice dumplings and lychees and went to the refrigerator to get a roast goose as a return gift.

He didn't buy anything special for the holidays, but there was always a lot of food stored in the refrigerator.

They were all in the village, and there was no fear of people stealing the car if it was left outside. Lin Gongshang saw him entering the kitchen, so he simply came in and waited.

Lu Ao stopped at the door just now, but Lin Gongshang hadn't noticed yet. As soon as he entered, Lin Gongshang saw Song Zhou sitting in the yard drinking tea. He was stunned for a moment, turned around and asked Lu Ao in a loud voice: "Lu Ao, who is your friend?

"

"Yes." Lu Ao came out hurriedly carrying the roast goose and introduced Lin Gongshang: "This is my friend Song Zhou."

Songzhou stood up and greeted with a smile, "Hello."

"Hello, hello." Lin Gongshang was still in a daze and asked: "Do all of you good-looking people make friends with good-looking people?"

Lu Ao handed the basket back to him and said funnyly: "Are you praising yourself in a different way?"

"That's not true. I just think this brother is very good-looking. What kind of word does it make people think of when he sees it? I just wanted to say something, but I forgot it when I came to my mouth... Yes, Zhong Lingyuxiu. This brother is instantly recognizable as soon as he sees it.

The word "Zhong Lingyuxiu" reminds me of this word!"

It's hard for him to be such a rough guy and still speak idioms.
