Chapter 59 Score!
When Lu Yao got home, it was already past 1 o'clock.
He found that Lu Yuanshan hadn't rested yet, but was sitting on the sofa watching TV.
"Dad?"
"Oh, I'm back."
After watching his son come back, the middle-aged man with some red eyes nodded:
"Get some rest early... Your Aunt Li sent you that bag of clothes for you to take."
After saying that, he turned off the TV and returned directly to the bedroom.
Obviously he was waiting for Lu Yao on purpose.
Lu Yao was also tired and lay down on the bed without even taking a shower.
Sleep until dawn.
When he was woken up by the alarm clock in the morning, although he was sleepy, he still got up after smelling the aroma of food.
As soon as he came out of the bathroom, the door to the second bedroom opened.
Lu Qing also got up from bed with a messy head of hair.
After seeing her brother, she yawned and waved her hands:
"Morning."
"...Why are you up so early?"
"Today I am going to tutor my third aunt's children. Oh yes, there is ice cream I bought for you in the refrigerator, from Haagen-Dazs."
Hearing this, Lu Yao rolled his eyes:
"It's not the leftovers you ate, is it?"
"Yes, yes, I even spit on it. Do you like it or not?"
Lu Qing pushed him angrily, walked into the bathroom and closed the door.
Lu Yao didn't even check the refrigerator...Who is a good person who eats ice cream when he gets up early in the morning?
After the family had a rare neat breakfast, Lu Yao went to work carrying his lunch box.
He made an appointment with the agent today to go through the transfer procedures for the house at 8 o'clock. Although Hu Li left, things still needed to be done.
At early 8 o'clock, he arrived at Fortune Garden on time.
I saw the owner of the "little house" in Building 5.
She is a well-groomed middle-aged woman who looks like she has a good family.
The eldest sister looked very enthusiastic when she saw that Lu Yao was so young, and she thought it was his "marriage house". After all, the agent had told her enough that the buyer was a young man and woman.
So I told Lu Yao a lot about the couple's life in the room.
For example, how to decorate this room and how to decorate that room.
Lu Yao didn't expose it and let her praise the house.
Finally, when it came to the price, she finally showed her eager side.
Since Hu Li didn't say whether it was the full amount yesterday, she took the initiative to say that if she could pay it off in one go without waiting for a bank loan, she could give Lu Yao another 300,000 yuan cheaper.
Clearly, she was in a hurry for money.
When Lu Yao heard this, he agreed. After all, the agency still had a 2% handling fee.
Save if you can.
So, at early 9 o'clock, Lu Yao went to the agency with her to complete the procedures, and then went to the nearby bank to transfer the payment.
More than 10 million yuan was swiped at will. After the swiping was completed, he paid an additional 2,000 yuan handling fee to the agency, who would be responsible for completing the property transfer procedures.
Everything is over, and the time is only 9:30.
Lu Yao held a file bag containing various procedures in his hand. After sending a message to Hu Li, he came to Xu Ruochu's home.
It seemed that Xu Ruochu had just gotten up.
The time is just right.
"Mr. Xu, breakfast."
"Um...are the procedures completed?"
She asked, looking at the file bag in Lu Yao's hand.
"Yeah."
After Lu Yao responded, he thought for a while and said:
"Mr. Xu, Sister Li went to the airport last night, did you know?"
"...?"
Xu Ruochu was a little puzzled:
"What are you doing?"
"I'm not sure either..."
After Lu Yao explained the general story of the matter, Xu Ruochu understood.
Nod:
"She should have rushed back to England... Bubu is very old."
After saying that, a trace of sadness appeared on her face:
"That was the dog her father raised during his lifetime. It was just one month old at that time, and Uncle Hu left... Actually, thinking about it now, Uncle Hu might have been afraid that his daughter would be sad, so he brought Bubu back to accompany her..."
Her words also verified Lu Yao's guess.
Moreover, judging from the general lifespan of dogs, Lu Yao guessed that Hu Li's father had been dead for at least eight years, and possibly more.
However, the two of them did not continue chatting.
Although Xu Ruochu had gotten over the haze of the death of his family member, it was still early in the morning...it would be better to talk less about sadness.
Eat normally, work normally.
All day long, Lu Yao's text messages didn't get a reply.
And Lu Yao didn't mention inviting Xu Ruochu to his college entrance banquet.
He really didn't know what to say.
After a busy day, he returned home in the evening with a slightly tipsy woman who had been drinking with some investment bankers.
Because Lu Yao didn't go to the private room, he didn't know her dining situation.
But after returning home, she took the initiative and said:
"Lu Yao, please make something to eat. I'm a little hungry."
"Okay."
Lu Yao nodded and walked directly to the kitchen.
But when he opened the refrigerator, he found that... the refrigerator was empty.
"...Mr. Xu, there is nothing in Bingliang. Do you have instant noodles at home?"
"No more?"
The female CEO who was drowsy on the sofa was stunned when she heard this, and then waved her hand:
"Forget it, you go, I'm going to take a shower."
"...Mr. Xu, you'd better not take a shower after drinking."
"Then...well, I'm going to rest. You should also go to bed early. Good night."
She seemed to have drunk a lot today, and she was walking a little staggering now.
"Uh...Okay."
Lu Yao nodded, took one last look at the empty refrigerator, and left.
After going downstairs, he thought about it and started driving around here.
Soon I found one in Shaxian, which is located in a corner of an office building.
So I parked my car and bought a mushroom and pork ribs soup, a basket of steamed dumplings, and a braised egg in Shaxian County.
Then returned to the Garden of Fortune.
He tentatively sent a message to Xu Ruochu at the door:
"Mr. Xu, have you rested?"
"No, I'm taking a bath."
Didn't Lu Yaoxin not let you take a bath...
At the same time he looked at the time.
Half an hour has passed since he left.
Although he didn't know how long it took for Xu Ruochu's bathtub to be filled with water, he still replied:
"I bought you something to eat and left it at the door. It's not suitable to take a bath after drinking, so you should come out. Eat the food and rest early."
"Are you at the door?"
"Yes, I left the food at the door."
In fact, what he didn't know was that after Xu Ruochu saw this text message, she had already turned on the surveillance camera in the bathroom and saw Lu Yao holding a plastic bag at the door.
Inexplicably, his eyes became gentle.
Looking at this message, she replied:
"Okay. Thank you."
"Good night."
Lu Yao replied politely, pressed the elevator button, and walked in after the elevator door opened.
About five or six minutes later, the woman with a facial mask on her face opened the door, picked up the food on the floor, and returned to the house.
……
No. 21.
There are still 2 days until the college entrance examination results are released.
Lu Yao got up early and walked out of the house holding his mother's arm.
He originally wanted to talk to his mother and do some ideological work with her, but Ms. Chen obviously knew her son's character. As soon as Lu Yao spoke, she put her fingers on her son's face.
If you dare to do it again, I will crush you to death.
Lu Yao could only give up and accompany his mother in the vegetable market early in the morning. He bought a large bag of fresh meat, eggs, vegetables and milk. He parted ways with his mother in the community and drove the X6 with a large bag of food. Arrive at the Garden of Fortune.
He came early, and it was not yet 8 o'clock when he arrived at Xu Ruochu's house.
As soon as I walked in, I saw the Shaxian lunch box and half a banana on the table.
Okay...
But he didn't rush to pack it up. Instead, he put the two large bags of ingredients he was carrying into the refrigerator by category.
Then I took out the beef filling, tomatoes and some ingredients.
There was only a small piece of Parmesan cheese left in Xu Ruochu's refrigerator.
But now it's full.
Soon, a "sizzling" sound came from the kitchen.
Lu Yao is actually very good at cooking.
Dad’s career means that the taste of every meal at home is precious.
Since the first time he fried a half-cooked tomato egg when he was a child and received praise from him, it has become a common rule of the Lao Lu family to bring some home food every time when his father goes out.
Therefore, Lu Yao may not be able to handle particularly high-end ingredients.
But when it comes to how some home-cooked dishes can be preserved for a long time, he knows very well.
Soon, the smell of tomatoes filled the whole house.
At about 9 o'clock, Xu Ruochu heard the noise outside. When she woke up early, the smell had already passed through the crack of the door and floated into her bedroom.
"...?"
With some doubts, she put on her pajamas and opened the bedroom door.
The first breath she took...she smelled the extremely rich smell of tomatoes.
I also heard noises coming from the kitchen.
The flavor is strong.
Even when she walked to the kitchen door, she found that the door was closed.
But the strong aroma still burst out from inside.
So, she opened the door and immediately saw the man standing in front of the stove.
"...Mr. Xu, morning."
Lu Yao smiled.
"..."
Xu Ruochu was stunned and didn't ask him why he wasn't cooking in the open kitchen.
Instead, his eyes were fixed on the two lunch boxes on the stove.
The oily orange-red meat sauce is exuding a mysterious and alluring luster.
"You did it?"
she asked subconsciously.
"What?"
Because the range hood was very loud, he couldn't hear it clearly.
"...It's okay. I'm going to wash my face and brush my teeth."
"Oh, okay."
With inexplicable expectation and good mood, Xu Ruochu washed her face and brushed her teeth much faster.
When she walked out, Lu Yao had already brought the food to the table.
A plate of fried vegetables, two fried eggs, and a few slices of ham from the frying pan.
And a bowl...
"What is this?"
She looked at the small pieces of tomato-flavored dough in the bowl and asked subconsciously.
"Tomato and beef sauce rice. You were a little drunk last night, so eat this to relieve your hangover in the morning. But... I cut this dough with a knife. Do you know there is a snack in Zhangye called beef rice?"
"Uh... I don't know."
"Although it's a small rice dish, it's actually noodles cut into dices that are smaller than mochi. I made it just like the rice noodles... My dad runs long distances all year round, and he also has a rice cooker in the car. We cut and divide the small rice for him at home. When he is hungry, he throws it into the water and cooks it for a while. It cooks faster than ordinary noodles. I didn't expect it to be quite delicious when eaten like this. It has always been like this. Done. Try it. ""..."
Xu Ruochu was speechless.
Indeed, almost nothing in the bowl can be said to be dough, each piece is a "dice" the size of a soybean.
Just smelling it makes my appetite whet my appetite.
She nodded and sat at the dining table.
"In addition, Mr. Xu..."
Xu Ruochu looked up and saw two disposable lunch boxes in Lu Yao's hands.
Inside is that red beef sauce.
"This is beef sauce. I made some extra, as well as these small rice dishes. I have divided them all and put them in the refrigerator for you to freeze. If you are hungry, you can boil a pot of water and boil these small rice dishes. Put some of this beef sauce into the pot and heat it up. No need to add oil, just scoop out the layer of oil on top of it. In the pot, take out the cooked rice and put it into the pot, stir-fry it, or add some noodle soup, tear some green vegetables, and break an egg into it... You can eat it any way you want. There’s a lot of meat and soy sauce, so don’t be afraid to put it in. It won’t go bad for at least a week…”
"Uh..."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Xu Ruochu looked at the lunch box in his hand and nodded subconsciously:
"Okay."
"Yeah, and put some Parmesan cheese, it's actually pasta, but there is no basil in my vegetable market, but the taste is the same..."
"..."
Xu Ruochu no longer knew what to say.
Just nodded.
At the same time, she scooped out a small spoonful of rice, blew on it, and put it in her mouth.
The gentle but rich flavor of beef and tomato instantly made her fall in love with this bowl of rice.
“Delicious!”
she said.
"Ha, as long as you like it."
"..."
She looked at the smiling boy and asked subconsciously:
"Have you eaten?"
"Not yet, you eat first, I'll put all these away."
"...Let's eat together first."
"No need..."
"It's okay. Let's eat first. After you finish...I'll help you cook together."
"Okay."
Lu Yao turned around and went to the kitchen to serve himself a bowl, and the two sat down facing each other.
Xu Ruochu seemed to really like this bowl of rice, and because he added some more pepper, she felt a slight sweat on her forehead after finishing the bowl.
But my body and mind felt more comfortable than ever before.
Putting down the spoon, she looked at the boy opposite and suddenly said:
"Whoever is your girlfriend in the future will be very happy."
After saying this, she was also a little confused as to why she suddenly said this.
But after Lu Yao heard it, he just shook his head and smiled:
"This is actually my first time cooking for others. To be honest, Mr. Xu said, just now I was worried about whether it tasted good or not, because of your eating habits."
"...First time?"
Xu Ruochu asked subconsciously.
Lu Yao nodded:
"Well, the first time, usually before my dad goes out, my mom and I prepare it for him. My sister can also do it, but she is not as talented as me. The old Lu family competed blindly to guess who can cook the most delicious food. I It’s a Triple Crown winner.”
"Pfft..."
Xu Ruochu suddenly burst into laughter.
He instinctively covered his mouth and said with a smile:
"What kind of game is this?"
"Just blindfold my dad and let him try who cooks the best food. I'm the Triple Crown winner."
"What about the fourth crown?"
"Uh...it only lasted three times. My sister was heartbroken at the fourth time and burst into tears, so the competition lost its sponsors and was completely terminated."
"Hahaha~"
It seemed that this sentence made her laugh.
Smiling is called happiness.
After laughing, she couldn't help but ask:
"Is this really your first time cooking for someone else?"
"Well... this is the second time."
"...?"
Xu Ruochu was stunned again and asked subconsciously:
"Then who was it for the first time?"
"It's you too."
"...Huh?"
Xu Ruochu was stunned for a moment, and then realized when this "first time" was.
The smile became brighter.
……
Number twenty-two.
After work, Lu Yao took the time to practice Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Since he missed school for several days, the coach had to take him to review his technique again.
After he returned home with his whole body clear, Lu Yuanshan asked:
"What time will the score be checked tomorrow?"
"It's past 12 o'clock tonight."
Following his son's words, Lu Yuanshan became a little nervous inexplicably.
After thinking for a while, he asked:
"Then will you still go to work tomorrow?"
"Come on, Mr. Xu is going to Suzhou and Hangzhou tomorrow."
"...Going on a business trip?"
"It doesn't count, does it? It's just over a hundred kilometers in total. It takes up to four hours to go back and forth."
Lu Yuanshan looked at his calm son and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Why is this kid so calm?
But he was a little worried.
After all, it is on the expressway...
"How about... dad drives it for you?"
"No, it's not like I've never run on the highway before."
"This..."
Lu Yuanshan didn't know what to say anymore.
Ms. Chen on the side asked tentatively:
"Why don't you take a day off?"
"Why?"
Lu Yao was a little confused:
"I'll know the score in a moment, and it won't delay tomorrow's work."
"..."
She also wanted to say something.
But... every time I want to say something, I always think of my son’s 180,000 yuan.
I feel like everything I say is wrong.
In the end, the silent couple could only divert their attention:
"I'm calling Lu Qing! Doesn't this dead kid have a home?! What time is it, and he's still wild outside!"
Lu Yaoxin said, do you really not know that your daughter is a love brain?
At this moment, the two of them were probably watching "Toy Story" in the cinema hand in hand... Oh no, she watched it a few days ago.
But...after Ms. Chen's roaring death order, Lu Qing returned home on time at around 11 o'clock.
The first thing I said when I saw Lu Yao was:
"Check the score at 12 o'clock tonight?"
"Yeah."
"Are you ready? Don't be stressed."
As soon as she tried to persuade her, Ms. Chen responded coldly:
"Your brother doesn't have any pressure! It's you! You don't have a home, right? You're out in the wild every day!...I'm telling you, if your brother fails in the exam, you can't even think about taking a step out of the house this summer!"
"..."
Lu Qing's mouth twitched.
But I don’t dare to offend my mother.
Lu Yao shrugged helplessly at Lu Yao who covered his mouth and snickered, and went back to the house to change clothes and take a shower.
When they came out of the shower, the whole family was sitting in the living room, with Lu Yao's admission ticket on the table.
And in the following time, it was really torture every minute.
11:58.
The whole family has arrived in front of the only computer at home.
Lu Yao opened the college entrance examination score website.
Lu Qing said:
"Do you want a sense of ceremony?"
"What do you mean?"
"Just... cover the screen and read each subject!"
When she was talking to her brother, Lu Yuanshan and Chen Aihua didn't even dare to take a breath.
Lu Yao rolled his eyes:
"Crazy, you think scratching is fun."
As he said that, he saw that the time had reached 0:00 on the 23rd.
So, I directly entered my student registration number and clicked Query!
The system responds very quickly.
After 3 seconds, the candidate information appeared on the screen.
Candidate: Lu Yao.
Subject scores:
Mathematics: 150
Language: 131
English: 139
Comprehensive Science: 300
Total score: 720.
"Hiss!!!"
Lu Qing took a breath of cold air.
Ms. Chen, with a trembling voice, clutched her husband’s hand:
"Lao... Lao Lu, my eyesight is a bit blurry... This... how many points is this?"
"...Seven! One hundred! Two!"
Lu Yuanshan's response was squeezed out from between his teeth.
Then...
"Ah!!!!"
Chen Aihua screamed, hugged his son from behind and cried loudly!
"My son is smashed!!!! Ah!!!! My son is smashed!!!!"
"Monster..."
Lu Qing murmured to himself.
Lu Yuanshan was trembling all over, clenched his fists, his eyes were red, and he said nothing.
As for Lu Yao, who was hugged by his mother and shaken desperately...
720 points?
He narrowed his eyes and stared at the screen as his mother shook him.
His face was calm.
It seems...this score is not just as simple as being the top pick in the Magic City, right?
He thought subconsciously.
12 years of cold weather.
Once you get your wish.
The little Lu family, at this critical moment in the early morning of the 23rd...
Caught in a carnival.
20,000 words, all saved manuscripts have disappeared... Please vote for me, thank you for your support!
