Chapter 505 Farewell Dinner.

Luo Huiying, who had just returned to her rental house after get off work, was very surprised when she received a call from Shen Xueming.

Although the two had known each other for a long time, they were fellow villagers and had eaten together several times. ,

But to be honest, the two were not very familiar with each other and had no substantial communication.

At most, they would politely ask each other if work was going well when they met.

Also, during the Spring Festival holiday at the end of the year, sometimes they would ask on WeChat if anyone had shared a car, and there was nothing else.

Should I answer or not? Luo Huiying hesitated for a long time, and finally answered the call with a swipe of her finger.

"Hello, Shen Xueming, what's the matter with the call?"

After answering the call, Luo Huiying talked to Shen Xueming while cleaning the room.

"Luo Huiying... are you free tonight? I'm about to leave Beijing and go back to my hometown. Before I leave, I want to invite you and Xiaoliang to dinner. I don't know when I will see you again in the future."

"Is that so..." Luo Huiying frowned slightly after hearing what Shen Xueming said. In fact, she didn't want to go to this meal.

Luo Huiying has been exercising with a host on Kuaishou recently. At night, she eats some vegetables and fruits at most. She is not very interested in eating out.

"Come on, Luo Huiying. I called Xiaoliang at that time. He also said that he hadn't seen you for a long time and wanted to talk to you. For Xiaoliang's sake, you have to show up tonight."

"If you feel uncomfortable coming, bring your best friend with you. It will be more lively with more people."

"It's settled. My mother called me. I'll hang up first."

Chen Xueming said a lot of things and hung up the phone without waiting for Luo Huiying's reply.

"Huh?" Luo Huiying wanted to say something but she didn't have the chance.

"This Chen Xueming, I haven't seen him for a while, but he has improved his ability to invite girls to dinner."

Luo Huiying leaned the broom in her hand against the wall, and the image of Chen Xueming emerged in her mind.

Chen Xueming is not handsome, but not ugly either. He is just an ordinary person, neither tall nor short, and very ordinary.

He came from the countryside. His father is a worker and his mother is a farmer. He is also from an ordinary family.

In short, Shen Xueming is just one of the most ordinary people among the millions of rural people in China.

He has no outstanding skills or achievements, but he has no bad habits either.

An ordinary person, living an ordinary life and doing an ordinary job.

"By the way! Take this opportunity to match Xiaoliang and Lezhen!"

Luo Huiying didn't want to go to the appointment at first, but when she thought of her aunt's request to her, she changed her mind instantly.

Luo Huiying's aunt, Shen Xiaoliang's mother, would call Luo Huiying every now and then and ask her to introduce the girls she knew to her cousin.

Shen Xiaoliang and Shen Xueming are the same age, and they are already 28 years old this year, which is considered late to get married in the countryside.

Shen Xiaoliang, like Shen Xueming, is an ordinary rural child, and the family conditions are not that good.

When they were young, there were people who took the initiative to introduce people to blind dates, but when they were 27 or 28 years old, there were no more people who came to introduce people to them.

At the beginning, Shen Xiaoliang and his family were not too anxious, and felt that it was okay to get married later.

As the betrothal gifts in rural areas have been rising in the past two years, Shen Xiaoliang and his family began to worry.

However, there was no point in being anxious. First, he was average-looking, second, he didn't have a decent job, and third, his salary was not high.

Seven or eight blind dates ended in failure.

Luo Huiying's aunt was desperate and asked everyone she met to introduce a date to her son.

The night before yesterday, she called Luo Huiying at night and asked her to introduce a date to her cousin.

Luo Huiying has always had a good relationship with her aunt's family, and she treats her aunt no worse than her own mother.

Seeing her aunt distressed about her cousin's affairs, she, as a cousin, naturally wanted to help.

While working today, she was still thinking about how to introduce her cousin to her bestie so that it would not seem so deliberate and her intentions would not be so obvious.

Today, Shen Xueming's dinner invitation is a good opportunity.

Do it as soon as you think of it. Luo Huiying picked up her phone, flipped to her best friend Guan Lezhen's number and called her.

Dudududu, dudududu--!

The phone rang a few times before it was connected. A cheerful voice came from the other end.

"Hey Yingzi! What are you doing? I'm playing a dungeon with my husband. If you have something to say, tell me."

Luo Huiying was speechless after hearing Guan Lezhen's words: "I say, you are a cucumber girl, can you stop talking about your husband all the time? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others?"

"Tsk, I don't care what others say about me. My husband is handsome and good at fighting. I feel safe playing dungeons with him. I have decided that Brother Zhongli is my husband."

"Okay, okay, it's up to you. It's your freedom to call anyone your husband. I won't talk nonsense with you. I'll tell you something serious."

Luo Huiying told Guan Lezhen everything about Shen Xueming's invitation to dinner just now.

"Is this a farewell dinner for you? We are from the same hometown, and he is going back to his hometown, so I should show my support."

"But, wouldn't it be inappropriate for me to go..."

"What's inappropriate? Just be my companion. If he invites a bunch of boys, it will be embarrassing for me as the only girl."

"this……"

"Stop doing this and that, you damn girl, do you want to continue playing dungeons with your husband? Which one is more important, your two-dimensional husband or my best friend?"

"Okay, okay, I've convinced you. How about I go with you? But it needs to end early. I made an appointment with a friend tonight to continue the liver dungeon and go to jail together."

"It won't be too good. It will end at 10 o'clock at most."

"OK! No problem, by the way, where is the place to treat me to dinner?"

“Extremely good at home cooking.”

"I'm going. If you didn't tell me earlier, you should tell me that it's home-cooked food. There's so much nonsense. I'm going. I'm going to improve the food tonight. I haven't been to the old house in a long time." Over there for home cooking.”

"Look at your potential... don't say you know me."

"Tch, then go to the street and grab someone to accompany you!"

"..."

After chatting about the business, the two chattered a lot of nonsense again. They stayed on the phone for more than half an hour before hanging up.

After hanging up the phone with Guan Lezhen, Luo Huiying went to the public washroom outside to wash her face. After washing her face, she put on a little makeup.

After putting on makeup, I started looking for clothes to wear in the evening in the closet. After a lot of fussing, the time came to 7:43 pm before I knew it.

At this time, there are only seventeen minutes left before the scheduled meeting time, less than twenty minutes.

Tuk-tuk-tuk--!

"Eiko, are you okay? Are you ready to go?"

Luo Huiying had just zipped up her makeup bag when there was a knock on the door of her room from outside, and a female voice with a clear voice sounded from the corridor outside.

"Coming, coming, ready."

Luo Huiying stood up from the chair, looked in the mirror one last time, and felt that there was nothing wrong. She reached out and picked up a small black bag on the table and went to the door to open the door.

The door opened, and standing outside the door was a girl who was about 1.6 meters tall, plump, with short hair, and was playing with a mobile phone in her hand.

"I'm still playing, I'm not afraid of knocking my teeth while walking." Luo Huiying said jokingly when she saw Guan Lezhen still playing games after going out.

Guan Lezhen didn't even raise her head or look at Luo Huiying, and said: "Yingzi, please wait for me for a minute. This is the last room. Let's set off after filling up the stars in this room."

"Okay, okay, be smart." Luo Huiying knew that Guan Lezhen liked to play games, so she didn't rush her and stood quietly aside to watch her finish.

Three minutes later, Guan Lezhen turned off her phone, put it in her pocket, looked at Luo Huiying with a smile and said:

"I feel comfortable this time. The abyss has been filled again this month. I have obtained the rough stone, and I can once again fill the pool for my husband's special skills."

"You, stop obsessing over your husband in the game. Can he cook for you or make money for you?"

As Luo Huiying said this, she reached out and took Guan Lezhen's hand and walked towards the main road of the village in the city.

Guan Lezhen laughed at herself and said: "I am so fat, ugly, not gentle, I can neither cook nor act coquettishly. I am just a straight girl who was born an orphan."

Unlike Yingzi, you are not only beautiful, but also have a good figure, a gentle personality, and can cook.

If I were a man, even if I sell my iron, my liver, my kidneys, I still have to marry you home. "

Luo Huiying said: "Don't talk nonsense. Who said you are fat or ugly? You are so gentle, cute, lively and cheerful. If anyone marries you, he will definitely smile every day and have fun secretly."

The two of them walked and chatted, and when they arrived at the door of Lao Yu's home cooking, it was exactly eight o'clock in the evening, not a minute more, not a minute less, the time was just right.

"Luo Huiying, and this beauty, you are here!"

"Sister, Sister Zhenzhen, you are here. Shen Xueming and I have been waiting here for more than half an hour, and we both froze to death."

As soon as Luo Huiying and Guan Lezhen arrived at the door, Shen Xueming and Shen Xiaoliang smiled and came forward to say hello to them.

Luo Huiying said: "Isn't it eight o'clock in the evening? Why did you come so early?"

Shen Xiaoliang said: "I also said I would come later, but Shen Xueming didn't. He said he would come earlier to greet you two to show his sincerity. I can only risk my life to accompany you."

"Okay, okay, the time is just right. If we have anything to say, let's go in and chat slowly. Don't freeze outside. Luo Huiying, and this..."

"This is my best friend Guan Lezhen, Lezhen, this is my fellow countryman Shen Xueming, and this is my cousin Shen Xiaoliang."

Luo Huiying acted accordingly, and when introducing Guan Lezhen, she also introduced Shen Xueming and Shen Xiaoliang to her.

When introducing her cousin Shen Xiaoliang, Luo Huiying carefully observed the changes in the expression on Guan Lezhen's face, mentally judging whether she was interested in her cousin.

As the saying goes, if you know yourself and your enemy, you will win every battle, and the same goes for introducing your relative.

Introduce the right person to the right person, so that two people can become a family and live a long life.

If you forcefully bring two unrelated people together, even if they get married, the probability of divorce is very high.

"Hello Lezhen, it's our first time meeting you. Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too."

Guan Lezhen always chattered non-stop when she was in front of Luo Huiying, just like a chatterbox.

But in front of unfamiliar people, she behaves quietly like a lady.

"Come on, cousin, let's go in together. Mingzi spent a lot of money tonight and ordered all the hard dishes. I have to take this opportunity to treat myself."

Shen Xiaoliang said as he invited Luo Huiying and Guan Lezhen to come in.

After entering the room, the group went straight to the room on the second floor that had been reserved in advance.

After entering the room, everyone found a seat and sat down.

There were only four people tonight, and the seats were spacious, with a large space between each person.

After everyone took their seats, everyone chatted for a while, and after waiting for less than five minutes, the waiters in the restaurant began to serve the dishes.

One by one, the dishes that looked delicious were served on the table, and finally a full table was placed.

"Oh my god, Mingzi...you don't want to celebrate? Order so much!"

Shen Xiaoliang looked at the table full of hard dishes that he usually liked to eat but was reluctant to eat, and looked at Shen Xueming with surprise.

It can be seen from the expressions on Luo Huiying and Guan Lezhen's faces that they were also surprised when they saw the full table of dishes.

Although the dishes in Lao Yu's home are much cheaper than those in the star-rated restaurants outside, it would cost more than a thousand yuan to cook this big table today.

The salaries of the people present are not high. After deducting the rent and daily expenses, they can only save three or four thousand yuan a month.

It is painful to think that a meal costs nearly half a month's salary.

Shen Xueming smiled and said, "After this meal, I don't know when we will meet next time, so I have to eat better."

If it were the past, Shen Xueming would not be willing to spend more than a thousand yuan on a meal, but today is different. Today has special meaning for him.

First of all, he had a lot of good things today. Not only did he get a reward of 100,000 yuan, but he also got a work quota for the Black Dragon Mountain Scenic Area. These two things are worth celebrating.

Secondly, today was the last time he had dinner with his good friends. He also wanted to take this opportunity to confess to Luo Huiying, so he had to be generous.

Success or failure depended on this one move. If he failed tonight, the success rate would be even lower in the future.

"Sister, Sister Zhen, the three of us are in for a treat today."

Shen Xiaoliang looked at Luo Huiying and Guan Lezhen with a smile:

"Mingzi ordered such expensive dishes. We have to work harder and try to finish them all. There can't be any waste."

Luo Huiying smiled and said, "How much can we girls eat? You boys are the main force. You and Shen Xueming should eat as much as you can."

Shen Xiaoliang said jokingly, "If the two of us eat as much as we can, there will be no need for cousin and sister Zhen. We can finish another table."

"..."

The meal lasted from more than eight o'clock in the evening until half past nine.

With Shen Xiaoliang, the live treasure, making jokes, the atmosphere was very harmonious and laughter continued.
