1970, A Bit Sweet

He Tiantian treated everyone around her with a grateful heart. However, reaching middle age, she discovered she had been living inside a full-bodied lie.

Returning to the year 1970, He Tianti...

Chapter 711 Thoughtful and Touching

711

When eating noodles, be sure to use a large bowl.

He Tiantian took out the large bowl she used for making noodles, filled it with more than half a bowl of noodles, added a big spoonful of sauce, and added a lot of small black vegetables while cooking the noodles, so it could be considered a combination of meat and vegetables.

He Tiantian didn't add much salt to the braising liquid, so even if you add more braising liquid, it won't be too salty.

He Tiantian fed her two children noodles, soaking the beef from the braised beef in boiling water before feeding it to them.

"Mom, eat by yourself." Huo Ruihua didn't want his mother to feed him.

He Tiantian laughed and said, "You don't know how to use chopsticks. How about you eat noodles by yourself when you're a little older?"

"Okay!" Huo Ruihua was very easy to talk to.

Eating noodles in winter is especially satisfying and warms you up from head to toe.

"It's delicious," Li Yunzhong praised. "The noodles are good, and the sauce is even better."

"Hehe, if you like it, we'll make it often in the future," He Tiantian said with a smile. "If you don't have enough, there are noodles over there, we'll cook some more."

"I'm full, really full," Li Yunzhong said with a smile. "Extremely full!"

After dinner, everyone moved to the living room.

Li Yunzhong is very hardworking. He helps with washing dishes and cleaning. He is a very diligent young man.

Jiang Lifang asked He Tiantian to take care of the child while she and Li Yunzhong packed up together.

"Yunzhong, how old are you?" Jiang Lifang asked. There aren't many young men as capable and hardworking as you anymore.

Li Yunzhong scratched his head and said with a smile, "Aunt Jiang, I'm twenty-five years old this year."

"Oh my, you're twenty-five already. Have you gotten married yet?" Jiang Lifang asked, since people of this age are usually already married.

Li Yunzhong blushed slightly, chuckled awkwardly, and said, "Not...not yet...I'll be fully recovered by May tomorrow, then I'll go back and find a girlfriend."

"Oh, I see!" Jiang Lifang smiled, abandoning her idea of ​​introducing Li Yunzhong to someone. If Li Yunzhong were at the weapons research institute or in Nanshi, it would be fine; she could introduce him to someone.

Too far away is not good.

This applies to both the man and the woman.

Afterwards, Jiang Lifang and Li Yunzhong chatted while working, with Li Yunzhong mostly talking about things from his hometown.

After two days, Jiang Lifang liked Li Yunzhong even more.

Jiang Lifang was very busy before the New Year and had to go to the hospital early in the morning.

He Tiantian quickly stopped her mother-in-law, urging her to eat something before going to the hospital. She explained that if she didn't eat at home, she wouldn't be able to eat at the hospital until lunchtime.

“Mom, you can’t do this,” He Tiantian said. “How can your body take it if you don’t eat properly! You always tell me and Yingjie to eat properly, but you don’t eat properly yourself. If you don’t eat properly, then we won’t listen to you anymore.”

Jiang Lifang ate the rice porridge her daughter-in-law brought her while smiling contentedly.

"Okay, I've finished eating. I won't do that again. No matter how busy I am, I will eat." Jiang Lifang said with a smile. In the past, when she and her husband were at home, they often skipped breakfast, and they had gotten used to it.

He Tiantian nodded and said, "Yes, there are many people in our family. If I get up a little earlier, I can turn on the rice cooker and cook a big pot of porridge with eggs and side dishes. It's simple, but it warms my stomach after eating it."

"Yes." Jiang Lifang felt a warmth in her heart; this daughter-in-law was much more considerate than her son.

After finishing her meal, Jiang Lifang pushed her bicycle and prepared to leave.

"Mom, wait a minute." He Tiantian quickly chased after her, taking out a blue hat and scarf she had bought a couple of days ago, which was perfect for Jiang Lifang.

Jiang Lifang's eyes stung with tears. Oh dear, this daughter-in-law is more considerate than her son. Even her own daughter wouldn't be as filial as He Tiantian.

"Thank you!" Jiang Lifang patted He Tiantian's head before pushing her bicycle away.

Huo Zhekun and Huo Yingjie watched from a distance, exchanged a glance, and couldn't help but smile.

A harmonious family brings prosperity in all things, isn't that the truth?

He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie finished their meal with the two children, and Huo Zhekun went to work. Not long after, Zhou Yuanchao brought Wang Ying to visit.

When He Tiantian saw that it was Zhou Yuanchao, she said, "Yuanchao, Wang Ying, it's cold outside, come in quickly."

"Sister-in-law, you're still as young and beautiful as ever," Wang Ying praised. "Your skin is so well-maintained. You can tell me about your skincare routine later."

"Okay!" He Tiantian said with a smile, "Come, come in. They're all inside. You go first, I'll make you some tea right away."

"No need to trouble yourself, sister-in-law," Zhou Yuanchao said, following his wife as they entered, both carrying many things.

They were all placed in the kitchen along with it.

He Tiantian didn't stand on ceremony. She had a lot of things at home, and she would give them to Zhou Yuanchao. Wang Ying packed up an even more generous return gift.

Hearing a noise outside, Huo Yingjie saw that it was Zhou Yuanchao and his wife, so he hurriedly invited them into the house.

He Tiantian went to brew tea; the men drank wild mountain tea, while the women drank flower tea.

Because guests came to her home, He Tiantian didn't go to the shop, but stayed home to entertain them.

Zhang Aijun and Li Yunzhong also knew Zhou Yuanchao; the four men were chatting and laughing. He Tiantian and Wang Ying, with their two children, were whispering and laughing to each other on the side.

Wang Ying and Zhou Yuanchao have been married for nine months and are not pregnant. Now, whenever they see a child, they hug and kiss this one or that one.

"Sister Tian, ​​I've been married for almost a year and I still haven't gotten pregnant. Is there a problem?" Wang Ying hugged the baby tightly, wishing it were her own.

Last night her mother asked her the same question. This is her own mother. When they get to Inner Mongolia, her mother-in-law will ask the same question, and then it will be even more upsetting.

"What's the rush? You've only been married for six months, not a year!" He Tiantian comforted her. "Now that you're on vacation, you two have a good relationship, so relax and spend more time together. The baby will come sooner or later."

"Really?" Granny Wang asked, looking at her own stomach.

“Yes, don’t overthink it. I was just like you back then, always worrying about this and that,” He Tiantian said. “Later, I became a teacher in Qijia Village. I was busy with work every day, and before I knew it, I had it.”

"Okay, I don't want to think about it anymore," Wang Ying said with a smile. Then she played games with the child, even more so than He Tiantian, the child's biological mother.

At noon, Grandma Wang helped look after the children.

He Tiantian went to prepare lunch.

"Wang Ying, go inside and sit down, play with the kids. I can manage here by myself," He Tiantian said with a smile, not letting Wang Ying come over to cook.

Wang Ying smiled and said, "The child is playing with Grandma Wang right now, so I'll help you pick the vegetables. That way it will be faster, since there are quite a few people today, and it would be too tiring for you to do it all by yourself."

Seeing that Wang Ying wasn't leaving, He Tiantian didn't want to send her away any further, so she cooked while chatting with Wang Ying.

Thinking that Huo Yingjie was alone at the weapons research institute, she didn't go with him, and she didn't know if any women had approached Huo Yingjie.

Now that she has the opportunity, she wants to ask him properly.
