Chapter 47 Ah Fu also knows how to tell fortunes
At around six o'clock in the afternoon, Old Blue held Ah Fu's hand with his left hand and carried a pile of freshly bought ingredients in his right hand.
He was not going home to cook for himself, but to be a guest at Moretti's house...well, an uninvited guest for a free meal.
What? Go to Backlund right now? Tomorrow is also considered "right now", right? Can you understand the old people's schedule? Can we have dinner first and then go?
After redefining the word "immediately", Old Bruce put down the ingredients and rang the doorbell of the Moretti family.
"Excuse me? Who are you?" A clear female voice came from behind, with a hint of doubt in the voice.
"Hmm?" Old Blue turned his head and saw a young girl approaching, wearing a not-so-new dress and carrying a schoolbag. Melissa... Old Blue reacted quickly and said with a smile:
"My name is Blue. I live at number 11 on this street. I'm here to see Klein. He helped me a lot the past two days, so I wanted to come visit him this time... You are his sister, right? I heard him say that he has a very hardworking brother and an equally hardworking and lovely sister..."
“Ah, I wonder if Klein has finished get off work yet…” Melissa was a little overwhelmed. She was not used to the etiquette of saying a few flattering words before meeting someone…
The door of the Moretti family's house creaked open, and Klein, who had black hair, brown eyes, and was wearing old homely clothes, appeared. He was also a little surprised, "Mr. Blue? Why are you here? Melissa, you're back too. This is Mr. Blue, a generous gentleman, and this is my sister, Melissa. Please come in... Ah Fu is here too?"
Klein noticed that Ah Fu was carrying a bag of dog food on his back... What did this mean? Really showing off their love? The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Melissa heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that her brother Klein had returned home and knew the old man. She took the initiative to go forward and pick up the bag of food on the porch.
She found that although these ingredients were common, including lamb, Tussock fish, beef, etc., they were all very particular and the best that could be bought nearby...
Klein has really grown up now. He is gradually entering the social circle of respectable people... Melissa suddenly felt relieved. She walked to the kitchen with the ingredients and said:
"Come in, Mr. Blue, leave these to me. I'm very strong."
“Haha,” Old Blue laughed and said to Klein, “Your sister is really cute…”
Klein also smiled. It was unusual for a girl to show off her strength... but there was indeed a kind of cute contrast.
"Awoo!" Ah Fu was carrying dog food, wagging his tail, and nudging Klein's trouser leg, indicating that this was his food, but he could share it with you...
Of course, its overtures were not responded to. Under Klein's guidance, Old Blue sat on the guest sofa, and Alfu was left at the door... This is called, "Dogs are not allowed to enter the house."
“Mr. Blue, I don’t mind. Can you let Ah Fu in as well?” Klein’s eyes twitched. He felt like laughing when he saw Ah Fu was locked outside the door…
“No, no, ignore it and leave it outside. Klein, there is something that prompted my sudden visit this time… Hmm, what are you stewing? It smells so good?” Old Blue sniffed. He deserved to have the Holy Communion for being so shameless!
Klein laughed. He could see that Old Blue didn't have any serious business. He just wanted to come over for a meal... His cooking skills were recognized by people other than his family... He stood up and said as he walked towards the kitchen:
"Please take a seat. I'm making beef soup here. Please try it later. It's one of my specialties."
"Okay, okay!" Old Blue did not hide his desire for delicious food. He quickly agreed and sat on the sofa reading the newspaper while waiting for the delicious food.
……
Melissa was taking out the ingredients and thinking about what to cook. When she saw Klein return to the kitchen, she asked:
"Klein? How do you know Mr. Blue? He actually brought so many ingredients..."
"I met him at work..." Klein saw the type of ingredients and knew what was going on. He smiled and said to Melissa, who was still carrying a book, "Melissa, leave dinner to me. You can go upstairs and put down your book and take a rest. I'll call you when it's time to eat."
"How can that be? Don't you have to go and accompany Mr. Blue? It's rude to leave a guest there alone, isn't it?" Melissa retorted, carefully recalling the etiquette of entertaining guests she had heard about.
Klein found it a little funny and asked, "Who told you? Let me guess, Selina? Elizabeth?" Seeing Melissa nodded, he continued:
"Normally, that's true... But Mr. Blue's visit wasn't a formal one. You didn't see him even bring Alfu, the black and white dog. He even came at mealtime... You know what I mean. This gentleman is here to eat. There may be something, but we'll talk to him later... And we haven't come to the point of etiquette yet. Let's talk about it when we hire a chef and a maid."
Melissa looked thoughtful and went upstairs with her schoolbag.
Ha, I was just talking nonsense, but Old Blue probably won’t care about these things…
Klein continued to process the ingredients. In fact, the three siblings had already prepared dinner. They just had to wait for the beef soup to be cooked. But Old Blue happened to have brought the ingredients and had clearly ordered dishes... so it was a good opportunity to add a few dishes to improve the meal.
……
"Awoo~" Ah Fu lay outside the door in a somewhat decadent manner, occasionally howling. The chain was thrown casually on the ground next to it, not fixed anywhere, but it didn't dare to run, nor did it want to run. Maybe it was a spiritual premonition? If it ran away, its fate might be...
"Awooo," Did you forget to do the divination before going out today? The master had always let me in the house before... I just instinctively tried to please the person that Wang liked...
Ah Fu would tell fortunes every day. He would bite his right front paw with his mouth, press it on the ground, and write what he thought it meant... a dog paw print.
It lay on it and fell asleep silently.
In the hazy dream, a person who looked very similar to the one I was close to just now helped me take off the bag on my back and fed me food... It smelled so good...
"Awoo!" It woke up and found that there was indeed a figure standing next to it, exactly the same as the one in its dream!
Alfu wagged his tail and nudged Benson's trouser leg.
Benson looked a little strange. This was indeed No. 2 Narcissus Street. He was not in the wrong place...
Whose dog is this? There's even dog food tied to its back... Klein? No way?
He squatted down, touched Erha's head, and sighed that this dog has a good personality and is very friendly.
Then he took the dog food off Ah Fu's back, opened the bag and fed some to the dog.
"Ow~"
Ah Fu’s divination was a great success!
