Chapter 181 Overnight at a Restaurant
"Hey, Boss Hong, don't be so angry! It's just a small matter. The doors and windows are broken, and the roof was blown off.
It’s just a small matter, it’s not something that hasn’t happened before.”
Lao Lu waved his hand, saying that this made sense.
Every year when typhoons come, the houses in the town are inevitably damaged to some extent.
Roofs being blown off are very common.
The only difference is that this year there is Xu Yiyi’s Wufu Restaurant next to it. The doors and windows are all covered with shell tiles, and the roof has been renovated.
This is how we were able to stay safe in this strong wind.
If not, if it was the previous Qusheng Building, it would have suffered the same fate as Ruyi Residence.
Although what he said made sense, Hong Gang didn't want to hear it.
I turned around and was about to go upstairs, but unexpectedly the stairs were also covered with water stains.
As soon as I stepped on it, I almost slipped.
The fat body suddenly became flexible at this moment.
He held on to the railing tightly to avoid falling.
But my waist was sprained.
Lao Lu laughed as he watched Hong Gang go upstairs hesitantly.
Then he wandered around Ruyiju and finally returned to Wufu Restaurant with satisfaction.
At this time, Xu Yiyi had already brought the baby back to the lobby.
It took four aunties to clean up the tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks in the lobby.
"The four aunts will have to bear with it for tonight and spend the night in the backyard. The wind and waves outside are too strong, and the boat can't withstand the tossing and turning, so it will be difficult to return."
As she spoke, she looked up and checked all the windows on the first floor to make sure they were all closed tightly.
"Oh! You know, it's stormy outside. Going back now would be courting death."
Aunt Arong couldn't help but speak.
The other three aunts also talked incessantly.
"Don't be polite. I can't say I'm wronged. Living here is much better than at home."
……
"That's right, I'm too lazy to go back. Your uncle snores even louder than the rain."
After saying this, everyone burst into laughter.
They were all jokes, only Sihai took them seriously.
"Really? Uncle's snoring is louder than the thunder outside?"
Sihai asked curiously, and shouted loudly as if in coordination with thunder.
Just one sound frightened Wu Yuan so much that his whole body trembled.
Xu Yiyi quickly picked up the sleeping child and comforted him.
In a moment, the rumbling sound of thunder sounded like the beating of a dull war drum, coming from far away and getting closer. At first, it sounded like a low hum muffled in the quilt, but in an instant it became a deafening roar, and the sound waves were overwhelming.
Wherever it went, the windows vibrated and the doors clanged, as if an invisible giant hand was fiddling with them.
"Oh, that's just a joke. If it's really louder than the sound of rain, Auntie won't be able to sleep at night."
Hearing this, Sihai said "oh".
Looks quite lost.
"Alright, alright, stop talking here and go back to the house to rest."
After Xu Yiyi finished speaking, she took light steps and walked towards the backyard holding Wu Yuan.
At this time, the fire in the kitchen had just gone out, and Lao Lu took the initiative to heat up the manta ray stew.
Even on such a rainy night, that smell emerged in strands, like a slippery, invisible python, winding through the raindrops, looking for every gap for invasion.
At first, it was just a subtle sweetness that was almost swallowed by the smell of rain, floating slowly in the humid air.
In other words, Xu Yiyi has a sensitive sense of smell, otherwise she wouldn't be able to smell this fragrance.
As the wind changed slightly, the smell became stronger, spreading domineeringly and breaking through the barrier of the rain curtain.
Xu Yiyi approached the kitchen hidden in the rain and fog, and the smell was even more intense and indissoluble.
The door was half-open, and a dim light squeezed out from the crack, swaying in the rain. Inside the house, the manta ray soup made a gurgling sound.
"You scared me! How come you walk so silently, like Snowball?"
Lao Lu was concentrating on the fish soup on the small stove until he saw Xu Yiyi's shadow behind him and then he reacted.
I was suddenly startled.
"Grandpa Lao Lu, did you do something that you feel guilty about?"
Er'er put his hands on his hips and stared at Lao Lu.
"How could I? I'm such an honest person."
Lao Lu snorted and stood up.
"You came just in time. You said you wanted to have fish soup and rice noodles tonight. I'll light the fire for you and you can cook the rice noodles."
Lao Lu pointed to the soaked rice noodles in the wooden barrel, his eyes full of anticipation.
Xu Yiyi stuffed Wu Yuan into Er'er's arms and put the soaked rice noodles into the pot.
A group of people gathered together on a rainy night and ate a bowl of hot fish soup rice noodles.
Even though there is a violent storm outside, it is just like this.
……
Before going to bed, Xu Yiyi went to the bathroom and took a hot bath.
It's summer time, and I suddenly feel cold after getting caught in the rain.
Worried about catching a cold the next day, Xu Yiyi took a hot bath after sweating after eating rice noodles in fish soup.
Back in the room, the little Wu Yuan was sleeping soundly on the bed, his face round, just like the pink buds on the branches in spring, revealing the childishness and innocence of being untouched by the world.
Beside him, a little tiger doll was placed steadily.
It was the birthday gift that Aunt Arong gave to Sihai during dinner.
"Why are you here?"
Xu Yiyi looked a little confused.
From the next room came the chattering of two children.
Xu Yiyi walked forward and took the little tiger doll next to Wu Yuan in her hand.
He turned around and went to Sanchuan and Sihai's house.
At this time, the two children still lit the lights, and Sihai nestled in Sanchuan's arms and listened to him read.
"Miss?"
Sihai quickly crawled to the bedside and looked at Xu Yiyi with sparkling eyes.
"What's wrong, sis?"
Sanchuan also sat over.
"Why is the little tiger cub at Wuyuan?"
Xu Yiyi handed out the little tiger doll, and Sihai realized it was for this matter.
"I originally wanted to give it to Wu Yuan. Doesn't he always ask his elder sister to hold him? If I give him a doll, he won't miss his elder sister anymore."
Sihai looked at Xu Yiyi with a wrinkled face.
"I see you like it too. Didn't you hold it in your hand in the evening?"
Sihai shook his head, "I don't like it! Auntie Rong made it. I told you before that I wanted a doll for Wu Yuan. I used the doll to entertain Wu Yuan in the evening."
Sihai pouted, acting as if he was not that childish.
"This is what I want to give to Wu Yuan. Big sister, take it back quickly."
Sihai waved his hands, looking uninterested.
"Then what do you like? Big sister will buy it for you."
……
"Except for buying candy."
Xu Yiyi firmly opposed this and believed that children should not be allowed to eat too much sugar.
Sihai's heart broke when he heard this.
"If I can't buy candy, I want a dagger, like the one my father left for my eldest sister."
Sihai felt lost for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and his eyes lit up instantly.
"Let's talk about the dagger when you're older. If I buy it for you now, I'm afraid you might hurt yourself."
With that, Xu Yiyi left the two children's room without looking back.
"Big sister is annoying!"
Sihai sat on the bed, kicking his feet and wailing.
"That's right. Why are you playing with these things when you're so young?"
Sanchuan pulled Sihai over to lie down and continued reading, intending to educate this naughty younger brother.
