Huo De said with a cold face: "Women stay away from me."

Xia Wanshu was frightened by him and took a step back. The man was good-looking, but very fierce and scary.

Xiangnan smiled and said, "It's okay. He doesn't like to be too close to women. Please help us order some dishes. I'm hungry. Let Master Zhu make me some fried rice."

Xia Wanshu said, "Sister Xiangnan, we have copper pot potato rice today. Do you want some? Master Zhu's copper pot potato rice is really delicious. It's a must-order for everyone who comes to the restaurant."

"Sure, let's have a copper pot rice. What dishes do you want to eat, husband? Master Zhu's boiled fish is delicious. Would you like some?"

"Yeah." Hood was not too picky about food. As long as Xiangnan said it was delicious, he would accept it. Anyway, nothing was as delicious as Xiangnan's.

Xiangnan ordered two more dishes that Huode usually liked to eat. After the two of them finished eating, Xiangnan called Xia Wanshu to pay the bill.

"Sister Xiangnan, the total is ten yuan and eighty cents. I'll give you eighty cents to apply, and then give you five yuan as a fifty percent discount."

Xiangnan took out five yuan and gave it to her: "I'm going to have barbecue tonight. I'll ask Yang Xiao to come with us. Please tell Uncle Zhang."

"Then we have to inform the manager and Jiaxing. They've been talking about it several times since we had your barbecue last time. If we don't invite them to our barbecue, they'll hate me."

Xiangnan looked at Huo De and said, "Brother Huo, can we have more people for the barbecue tonight?"

"Okay." Hod didn't care about who they were. He only cared: "But it has to end soon."

"Okay, Wanshu, just tell them that we'll have a barbecue tonight. We need to go to the night market first."

Xia Wanshu blinked and looked at Xiangnan, then looked at Huo De who was sitting beside her like a master, and said in a low voice: "Sister Xiangnan, men have to pay for meals."

Xiangnan smiled and stuffed the money into her hand: "He has no money. All his money is on me. I handed it all over."

Xia Wanshu glanced at Huo De in surprise. Such a cold and handsome man actually gave all the money to Sister Xiang Nan?

"He doesn't earn as much as you do. How much do you earn in a day?" Even if he gave it all to Sister Xiangnan, it might not be much. He must have eaten and used Sister Xiangnan's money.

Sister Xiangnan bought so many things and built a house, all of which were paid for by her. This man is a gigolo.

This face is good enough for a gigolo, but she feels that Sister Xiangnan shouldn't be looking for a gigolo.

Xiangnan patted her on the shoulder and said, "The house in my city was bought with my husband's money. I can't earn as much as he gives me at the moment. Let's go!"

Hood has given her a lot, and she doesn't want others to misunderstand that she earns more and Hood is taking advantage of her.

Xia Wanshu looked at their departing backs and couldn't believe it. Sister Xiangnan earned so much every day. The bean curd sheets she gave away could be sold for hundreds of yuan a day, but she didn't even earn as much as her husband?

So how much money does her husband have? Is he really a rich man?

When she saw Yang Xiao in the evening, Xia Wanshu asked curiously, "What does Sister Xiangnan's husband do? He looks like a big shot."

"I don't know. I heard he's in the military, a regimental commander, so he has a leadership aura. What's wrong? Have you met him?"

"Sister Xiangnan brought him out. He's really good-looking. I heard from Sister Xiangnan that all her husband's money is given to him. He's a little unapproachable, though. When I get close to him, he backs away, as if I were a monster.

I'm so hurt and sad." Xia Wanshu said aggrievedly.

"Strange, he won't let me get close to Xiangnan, so why won't he let me get close to you either?"

"It's not that he doesn't allow me to get close to Sister Xiangnan, it's that he doesn't allow me to get close to him. Sister Xiangnan said he doesn't like women, but I feel like he likes Sister Xiangnan very much. She decides what to eat."

Xia Wanshu leaned closer to Yang Xiao and said with a smile, "Brother Yang, you'd better give up. Sister Xiangnan is someone you can't have. Even her husband is miles ahead of you."

Not only is he good-looking and rich, he also loves his wife very much. How can you compare with others?

"You can only be a good match for me. Don't worry about things that you shouldn't worry about." Xia Wanshu hit the nail on the head.

Yang Xiao smiled and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I thought Xiangnan was my sister."

"That's fine. Don't set your sights too high. Look at me. I'm actually pretty good. After I learn how to make desserts and pastries from Sister Xiangnan, I'll open a shop. Sister Xiangnan said it has a lot of money to make."

Yang Xiao patted her head and said, "I treat you as my younger sister too. When will Xiangnan and the others come?"

“I don’t know, they went to the night market and seemed to want to watch a movie.

We're bored anyway, so why don't we go see a movie, Brother Yang? There's a really good movie called "The Garland Under the Mountain" that's about the people's army. I think Sister Xiangnan and the others went to see it too."

Yang Xiao shook his head: "I don't want to go. Movie tickets are too expensive. It's better to save the money and watch something else. Besides, there will be outdoor movies, so I can go and watch them then."

Movie tickets are really expensive these days. There is only one cinema in the county, and a ticket costs fifty cents.

Xia Wanshu's eyes showed disappointment: "Then we can't just wait here foolishly. Let's go to the night stalls. Maybe we can run into Sister Xiangnan and the others."

Xiangnan and his friends hung out at the night stall for a while and then went to the cinema. After watching the movie, Xiangnan liked her man even more.

"Hubby, you guys work so hard. The country is so safe with you protecting it." Xiangnan said admiringly.

"Would you like to follow me and experience the life in the army?"

Hod again proposed that Xiangnan follow the army.

Xiangnan thought for a moment and said, "We'll see when the time comes. We'll have to wait until the business here stabilizes."

"How long will it take to stabilize?" Hood asked.

“The bean curd skin business is almost stable, but we need to expand it and at least turn it into an industry in the whole city. Let Wanshu learn how to run a cake shop.

I've invested in a private restaurant and am also planning to start a dyeing factory with the government, but I won't be involved in any of this anymore, so I probably won't have to be involved in a month or two."

Huo De hummed: "It will probably take me two or three months to go back to the army and make arrangements."

Xiangnan hugged his arm and said, "I won't be able to see Brother Huo for two or three months. I will miss you very much.

There are many beautiful female soldiers in the army, but you must not fall for them."

"Okay, I'm not interested in any of them." The one who is interested would have been married a long time ago, but he is still single.

"Let's go have some barbecue. Yang Xiao and Wan Shu must have been waiting for a long time."

When Xiangnan and the others arrived at the state-owned restaurant, Yang Xiao and the others had already been waiting for more than half an hour. Uncle Zhang and the others had already cut, washed and prepared all the ingredients.

Just waiting for Xiangnan to bring the seasoning.

After eating it last time, Uncle Zhang tried to adjust the ingredients himself, but none of the grilled food tasted as good as Xiangnan’s.

"Xiangnan, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you to teach us how to make seasonings. I have tried making them myself, but none of them are as delicious as yours." Yu Zhen waved happily when he saw her coming.

Seeing Huo De beside her, he was stunned: "Who is this?"

"Uncle Yu, didn't I tell you that Xiangnan and her husband are coming here for barbecue today? This is Xiangnan's husband." Xia Wanshu said.

Yu Zhen was very surprised: "Why does he look so familiar to me?"
