I asked this question unknowingly, probably in revenge for the squad leader blowing me up with a depth charge.
When the scale was being weighed, the old man next to me who only bought a small bag of shrimp looked at us in amazement as we put the big and small bags on the scale. He probably thought to himself: Where did the two big bags come from
"It's great that Uncle Ye also likes it!" Xiao Qin said with some joy, "This way in the future, you don't have to worry about being scolded when cooking this kind of dish..."
It makes sense, because summer is the season for barbecues. Having barbecues together can also enhance the relationship between classmates, which can serve multiple purposes.
As one of the top three foodies among the girls in the second grade (3) class, Xiao Qin, who likes seafood the most, was appointed by the class leader as the seafood committee, responsible for selecting the seafood for tomorrow's picnic, which can be regarded as a meritocracy.
If we meet again, the way Xiaoqin holds my arm tightly is hard to explain! After all, my father has not married Aunt Ren yet, and Xiaoqin is not even a step-sister now. Who can judge that she is a girlfriend even in such an intimate manner
Although I met the squad leader here last time, it was because the squad leader traveled a long way to buy special milk. It shouldn't be such a coincidence this time, right? I remember that neither the squad leader nor Shu Zhe particularly liked seafood.
Niu Shili and Xu Lijun were also assigned similar tasks. Because this trip saved a lot of charter fares and accommodation fees, the squad leader planned to spend more money on food.
"What!!!??? Zhuang Ni also wants to participate in the picnic?"
"It's not Route 28, it's Route 23! And it starts with 'suburb'!" the loudspeaker said angrily, "You want to take Zhuang Ni to the ditch!"
It sounds quite appetizing! Xiaoqin’s focus this summer vacation should be on practicing her cooking skills!
Well what does that mean! It seems that he will marry me and live with us as father and son in the future! Are you the little daughter-in-law who is bullied by your father-in-law
"Eh? Why did the squad leader..."
"Fire prevention is also a part of safety! If you want to be a safety committee member, I will let you be a safety committee member, but you must pay special attention to fire prevention. If a mountain fire occurs or a classmate is burned, it will be your responsibility!"
"Well, dad isn't here, but this morning he ate some leftover glutinous rice and chicken rolls from last night, and he praised your cooking skills."
There is no news from Xiong Yaoyue again. I wonder if it is because LOL has entered another round.
Why do you talk about "not having lunch" like it's something to be proud of? Although I am very hungry now, I really want to eat something...
"Lotus root pancakes, golden squid rings, and rice sandwiches for breakfast...which one does classmate Ye Lin like to eat? I just learned it recently!"
Seafood committee? It wasn't enough that the squad leader made me a safety committee member, but also gave Xiaoqin the official position of seafood committee member? In order to train Xiaoqin's ability to participate in group activities, can such an official position be thought of
"Classmate Ye Lin, it looks like you haven't had lunch? No one else has eaten either! Let's go have lunch together!"
Although he has been ridiculed by Zhuang Ni, Da Xiaoxiao still does not change his warm-heartedness. Although he does not admit it verbally, he still cares about Zhuang Ni.
"Ye Lin, you are indeed invisible!"
The other two big foodies, Xiong Yaoyue and Daxiao, also have their own responsibilities - Daxiao is responsible for selecting beef, mutton and other grilled products, and Xiong Yaoyue is responsible for following Daxiao and working as a transportation employee like me.
As soon as she entered the supermarket, Xiaoqin went straight to the barbecue ingredients section and drooled at the fish, shrimp and shellfish in the freezer.
So Xiaoqin and I went downstairs together, had two rice bowls at a small restaurant, and then went to the Wal-Mart supermarket closest to my home. There was a banner "Seafood Sale" hanging at the door of the supermarket.
"These things are not easy to carry!" I said. "Even if you know that Big Speaker will bring a barbecue grill, I understand your desire to eat grilled fish and shrimps - but in the summer, these things will be lost on the way. Break it!"
After disgusting the squad leader, Zhuang Ni went offline, leaving Big Speaker behind to complain in the group.
"As for Xiaozhe, I'll let him stay at his aunt's house temporarily. There will be no problem."
Now that we are in voice chat mode, I don’t bother typing anymore.
I walked to the living room and opened the door for Xiaoqin. She was still dressed the same as yesterday, a short shoulder top with a cherry red ribbon and a short white pleated skirt, showing a pure and cute style.
I disagreed, "It's not that exaggerated! Even if the big speaker wants to lead everyone to have a picnic, it won't burn down Cuisong Mountain! Besides, aren't there several streams on the mountain? If there is a fire, just put it out with water. ?”
"Uncle Ye is not at home today either?"
I immediately regretted it afterwards.
After buying the seafood and putting it into three large fresh-keeping boxes, Xiaoqin asked me.
Preparing for a picnic? I really should go to the supermarket.
Xiao Qin pointed her toes inward and said, "I, I want to make a love lunch for classmate Ye Lin just like in the comics! I finally got this opportunity..."
Anyway, we can't stop Big Speaker from bringing the barbecue equipment, so we might as well make the best use of it. This is what the squad leader probably thinks, right
In addition, she was carrying a small satchel with a Mickey Mouse pattern, looking like she was going on a date.
Eh? What is the monitor doing? Didn't Eunuch Cao tease Zhuang Ni just now using "video chat"? And I thought of the class monitor’s younger brother, who has been dressing up as a transvestite and having ambiguous video chats with coriander-stuffed buns, so I couldn’t help but think about it at this time.
The squad leader, who was a little confused by my harassment, cut off the call and went offline.
"Student Ye Lin is on the bus tomorrow, what do you want to eat?"
"And the squad leader has authorized me to buy a crisper! As long as it is added with seafood ingredients, the total price does not exceed 600 yuan!"
I followed Xiaoqin around the frozen seafood section for a long time, watching her pick out many cheap and good-quality ingredients. As expected of a foodie, he knows which seafood is the most delicious and the most cost-effective. If the squad leader sends an anorexic person to pick out the ingredients, he will not meet the target.
Xiong Yaoyue only started to speak again at this time. The time she was silent just now was probably for LOL.
Coming back so soon means either a quick win or a quick loss.
"Why should I pick her up? Just because I'm closer to her home?"
Is she the aunt who often helps the monitor siblings hold parent-teacher meetings? The aunt who brought so many peaches to school that the class monitor couldn't finish them
"By the way, I heard that the stream on Cuisong Mountain is very suitable for swimming. Monitor, have you prepared a swimsuit?"
Xiaoqin, who was originally more afraid of the cold than me, maybe because the barbecue fire in her heart was already burning, was actually more cold-resistant than me. She happily packed a lot of seafood into plastic bags and put them all into the shopping cart I pushed.
Is it because Zhuang Ni, like Big Speaker's close friend PHS, both have "sick" attributes? But Zhuang Ni's body is only "sick" when it's beneficial to her. She's just pretending! It's just her brain that's sick!
"By the way, monitor, you have been out with us for nearly 40 hours. What will happen to your brother? He won't starve to death at home, right?"
"After lunch, let's go to the supermarket together and buy some food for tomorrow's outing!"
I thought of the squad leader dressed up at home, even wearing less clothes, and I clicked "Accept" with a trembling hand.
"Yes," the loudspeaker replied, "Why don't you go pick her up? You have ADHD and you can't stay idle anyway."
This is a fact, and I don’t think it’s a big deal to let Xiaoqin know.
"Then I'm offline, squad leader. I need to prepare some things and drop by to see what's going on with Zhuang Ni. If she's half dead, I won't take her with me tomorrow!"
"As long as you put it in the crisper and put it with ice cubes, it will be fine!" Xiao Qin stared at a squid intently, not knowing whether she was talking to me or the squid.
"I... just surfed the Internet by chance! Are you ready for tomorrow's outing?"
The squad leader seemed to chuckle twice and said, "We are almost ready. Ye Lin, since you have peeked at everyone's chat in the group and know the general situation, you should be the fire prevention committee member for this event!" "
Xiaoqin, you are here again! You commute to my house every day! And it’s so cute! If you knock on the door, knock properly. Why are you dubbing it yourself and pronouncing onomatopoeia
For students, it is not too early to gather at 8:30. They usually arrive at school at 7:50! It’s normal to have breakfast beforehand!
In order for me to take it seriously, the monitor became serious in the second half of his sentence.
"Hehe," Xiao Qin smiled proudly, "The monitor appointed me as the seafood committee member an hour ago and asked me to be responsible for selecting the seafood. Then tomorrow, classmate Ye Lin will be responsible for moving it to the meeting point!"
After I opened the door, Xiaoqin timidly poked her head in and looked inside the room.
Damn it, the squad leader used depth charges to blow it up! Sure enough, everything in video chat is a lie! Children, don’t be fooled so easily like me!
No, it didn't really come out of my mouth, but the look in my eyes definitely made me want to eat.
"Well... you can do whatever you want. If I'm hungry then, I'll eat some..."
It was so cold, even though it was a hot summer day, I actually shivered a little after spending a while at the freezer counter.
Although the video chat was connected, the monitor did not turn on her camera, so there was no image at all (let alone any embarrassing scenes), and only her proud voice could be heard coming from the speaker.
Big Speaker said helplessly: "There is no way, Xiong Yaoyue is too unreliable, I should take Zhuang Ni to the meeting point..."
"Eh? Didn't I agree that I will be responsible for everyone's safety? Even if I am a committee member, I should also be a safety committee member... "
"Okay!" Xiong Yaoyue agreed very readily, "Shouldn't we meet downstairs at the squad leader's house at 8:30 tomorrow morning and take the No. 28 bus together? I will definitely bring Zhuang Ni with me!"
Seeing that the class group was completely silent, I was about to stop peeking at the screen, but unexpectedly, an invitation message "Do you accept the video chat" was sent from the class monitor.
"You... you don't have to worry about whether I prepare a swimsuit or not! Just make it waterproof... no, just make it fireproof!"
"(*^__^*) Hee hee... Although the 600 yuan seafood may be a bit heavy, but classmate Ye Lin is so strong, it will definitely not matter!"
"Dong dong dong, dong dong dong, is classmate Ye Lin at home?"
Probably because Xiong Yaoyue has a bad mind and forgets things too easily, she was not given a separate task.
"On the bus?" I asked curiously, "Shouldn't everyone gather after breakfast?"
At one o'clock in the afternoon, because my father hadn't come back from discussing business and I didn't really want to have lunch, I suddenly heard a rhythmic knock on the door.
