Xiao Xuan said unhappily: "What’s the deal with that half glass of wine not being like you? A bottle not full, half a bottle swaying!"
As the words fell, Brother Bin’s expression beca extrely unpleasant. It was too much to be embarrassed at the table!
Little Uncle felt secretly pleased, but thinking that Brother Bin might be Jiang Ning’s future father-in-law, he quickly scolded: "Xiao Xuan, what are you babbling about?"
He ca to save face: "Brother Bin, bottom-of-the-bottle wine, also called Fortune Wine, brings great fortune! You’ll definitely strike it rich next year!"
Brother Bin’s face slightly recovered, and he replied: "Better wish for you to strike it rich next year!"
Despite Little Uncle’s toasts and complints afterward, Brother Bin didn’t stay long. After finishing the wine, he claid to have matters at ho and smiled while bidding farewell to Jiang Ning.
After the al, Little Uncle opened the gift box Brother Bin brought, surprisingly it was Daoyang Village pastries: ox tongue cakes, oatal crisps, mung bean cakes, wife cakes...
Little Uncle generously said: "One piece per person, all should have a taste!"
Originally, there were less than ten cakes in total, but with so many people present, there weren’t enough to go around.
Jiang Hu held a hawthorn pot helt, handing it to Jiang Ning, with a hint of eagerness on his intimidating face: "Brother, I’ll give you my share!"
Jiang Ning accepted the cake.
Jiang Hu’s face broke into a grin, his sincerity shown, Jiang Ning’s heart softened, and he wouldn’t hold a grudge!
Holding the cake, Jiang Ning recalled the scene when Jiang Hu shared orange peels with him in the past, and suddenly asked: "By the way, brother, you gave your share, then where’s my share?"
Jiang Hu’s smile froze instantly.
Ten seconds later, Hao Hao stood empty-handed, his little face full of confusion.
Jiang Ning held the ox tongue cake in his left hand, and the hawthorn pot helt in his right.
He took a bite of the pot helt, sour and sweet, not bad at all.
He pondered: "On the first night back to the village, where should I play?"
...
In town.
The small town in the Central Region of Hui Province, couldn’t be compared to a coastal town.
At the beginning of 2015, the underdeveloped small town entered the night, cold descended, places like cinemas, bars, cafes... didn’t exist, there were hardly any entertainnt venues.
But now, it’s year-end, well, there still weren’t many entertainnt venues.
The square in front of the town governnt was considered the busiest place, with splendid lights and square dancing reigning supre, further east was a barbecue street, bustling thanks to returning folks...
A few village beauties stood at the small shop entrance, watching the crowd in the distance, feeling the New Year vibe.
"Did Jiang Ning agree to be your friend?" asked Cao Xiaomin, "He might not have checked his phone?"
Ji Yan snorted: "Do you think any high school student on holiday doesn’t check their phone for half a day?"
"He just doesn’t want to bother with you." She thrust her hands into the pockets of her red windbreaker.
Cao Xiaomin muttered: "Sounds like you’re accepted as a friend too?"
Wang Xue and Li Jing were playing on their phones, and almost instantly, their friend requests were accepted.
"Approved, approved," Wang Xue said excitedly, she’d been waiting for half a day.
Upon hearing it, Ji Yan also took out her phone, finding her friend request accepted too.
The next second, a ssage ca: "Want to play billiards tonight?"
Ji Yan remained unfazed, but beside her, Wang Xue couldn’t hide her excitent: "Ahhh, he invited to play billiards!"
Wang Xue thought: ’Sorry Ah Hui... Please forgive ...’
Li Jing also said: "I got invited too."
Ji Yan frowned: "He sent it to everyone? That’s so rude?"
Cao Xiaomin wondered: "Why didn’t he send one?"
"Oh, then there are so filters," Ji Yan judged, guessing Jiang Ning doesn’t invite every girl.
"Will you go?" Ji Yan asked.
Wang Xue firmly said: "I think he’s too rude, I don’t like guys who act presumptuously, although I find him handso, the inside matters more."
The reserved Li Jing glanced at her phone, worried: "It’s too dangerous at night, the billiards hall is surely full of shady characters, I’ll pass."
Ji Yan stood with hands in her pockets, like a rose blooming in the cold wind: "Alright then, not going."
Wang Xue nodded: "Yes, it’s too cold, I’d rather go ho and snuggle under the covers."
Li Jing said goodbye: "My stomach feels bad, see you tomorrow!"
Ji Yan: "Bye bye."
Due to Jiang Ning’s differential treatnt, Cao Xiaomin turned love into hatred and angrily said: "Jiang Ning deserves it! Lucky you all refused!"
Next ti she sees Jiang Ning, she’ll definitely use this to laugh at him!
...
Ten minutes later.
At the billiard hall entrance, the three sisters t again, looking at each other with surprise.
Wang Xue accused: "Weren’t you not coming?"
Li Jing shyly said, with a hint of awkwardness: "My stomach suddenly stopped hurting..."
Ji Yan maintained her nonchalant attitude: "Let’s not talk about it."
anwhile, in Shen Village.
Shen Qing’e had just helped to finish the al, earning praise from her parents, she took the chance to check her phone, discovering Jiang Ning’s WeChat ssage: "Want to play billiards tonight?"
Her feelings at this mont were indescribable, whether joy, shock, or nostalgia, if she had to describe it, it was like a reunion after a long absence.
She rembered her dad laughingly saying when he ca back earlier: "Jiang Ning is really nice, very polite to ."
Shen Qing’e thought it was just her dad bragging, but now, unexpectedly, Jiang Ning had sent an invitation.
She was overwheld with surprise and joy, unable to hide her sweet smile, she asked: "Mom, does the electric scooter still have power?"
Shen Mu: "Just charged."
Shen Qing’e quickly replied to Jiang Ning: "Can you give so ti to calm down?"
Jiang Ning replied instantly: "No need, it was sent to multiple people, soone already agreed."
Shen Qing’e felt dizzy as she sat down slowly, holding her forehead.
...
Jiang Hu drove Jiang Ning to the town and reminded him: "I’ll pick you up tonight, just give a call!"
Their family restaurant stays open until midnight.
After Jiang Hu left, Jiang Ning used Divine Sense to notice the movents of the three girls, but he didn’t go directly to them.
He thought it over, sending a group invitation to the girls wasn’t very proper.
Jiang Ning didn’t want to give his classmates the impression of being arrogant.
He stepped into an alley, using the night as cover, Jiang Ning flipped his hand, the Storage Ring shimred, four paper cups were neatly lined up in the air, various materials appeared with a point.
Jiang Ning gently waved his hand, red Spiritual Fire swirled out, forming a dazzling vortex of fire, drawing in mountain spring water, black tea leaves, milk, and brown sugar pearls, all rging into the cups, four steaming cups of milk tea were quickly made.
Jiang Ning filtered out the tea leaves, took a straw, the taste was good, a rich blend of milk and tea aroma.
He sipped the milk tea, lifted the remaining three cups, and headed to the billiard hall.
The three girls had already waited for ten minutes, surprisingly, they didn’t look displeased when he arrived.
"Jiang Ning!" Wang Xue greeted him cheerfully, her nature has always been outgoing since middle school.
Li Jing greeted softly: "You’re here."
Ji Yan with her hands in her pockets, leaned against the billiard table, only presenting a side profile.
Jiang Ning handed over the three cups of milk tea, saying: "Try it."
Wang Xue stared at the simple milk tea cup, thanking: "Thanks!"
She tore off the straw cover, inserted it into the cup, just a sip and she tasted the pure rich milk flavor, delicious!
Wamiao Town is just a small town, and now it’s only 2015, the town sells milk tea, but they’re all instant mixed, many students are used to this type.
The first ti anyone tastes milk tea made with real milk and tea, the noticeable difference will leave them amazed, much like the first ti people have fried chicken, finding it extrely delicious.
Wang Xue’s eyes lit up: "So smooth! Where did you buy it?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Yan stopped pretending, tore open the straw, took a sip, even catching brown sugar pearls, soft and chewy, sweet.
Simply delicious to the heart.
Li Jing’s reaction was similar.
Jiang Ning looked at the three rural beauties who had never seen such a thing, he couldn’t help but smile, feeling a long-lost simple satisfaction.
As if the world’s milk tea-making technology retrogressed a hundred tis, unaffected, casually making a cup, the world stunned, what? There’s such delicious milk tea in the world!
Jiang Ning casually said: "I made it myself."
