Volume 1 Chapter 386: Cold

Sheng Wanyan sneered and threw away the things they brought.

"What are you doing!!!"

The ladies all ran out to pick up the things they had brought. The things they brought were not rare items, just some melon seeds and the like.

Although it's not a very good thing, it's someone else's intention. But what's the big deal about Sheng Wanyan just throwing it away?

"Aunt, my daughter doesn't need you to tell her what to do."

"And...you are women yourselves."

After Sheng Wanyan finished speaking, she closed the door, blocking out the cursing voices of the ladies.

Sheng Wanyan didn't care and went into the room to check on Yi Yi's situation.

Yi Yi had a runny nose, and Sheng Wanyan knew she had caught a cold.

He quickly took out the thermometer from the space and made sure that she didn't have a fever before he felt relieved.

Seeing that she was really feeling uncomfortable, I took out a bottle of suitable cold oral liquid from the space and gave it to her to drink.

When Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng heard that Yi Yi had caught a cold, they rushed over to check on her. When they saw their great-granddaughter looking so listless, they became angry.

"It's really a sin. Those people came to congratulate us in the middle of winter."

"They bullied my family for the sake of their own son's future."

Grandma Sheng was so distressed. Yi Yi had always been lively and active. When had she ever become so listless?

"It's the same at your brother's house. People come to the door every day."

"Hu Zi caught a cold yesterday."

"Even Xiaoyue has a cold and drank some cold medicine yesterday."

There are always people coming and going in the house, and the door is often opened, so the cold wind blows in. How can the children bear it?

"Grandma, Yi Yi is fine. She has taken medicine."

"Let her rest for a while."

Grandma Sheng nodded and hurried out to rest without disturbing Yi Yi.

When Gu Tingxiao came home from get off work, he found that the atmosphere at home was different. It seemed that his wife was looking at him with some unpleasant eyes? ? ?

Gu Tingxiao took off his coat and walked over carefully to sit next to her.

"Wife, what's wrong?"

"Where's Yi Yi?"

Usually when I come home from get off work, Yi Yi's voice can be heard throughout the house. Why is it so quiet today?

It would be fine if Gu Tingxiao didn’t mention Yi Yi, but she got angry as soon as he mentioned Yi Yi.

"It's all because of your promotion."

"Those people came to congratulate us every day, and it made us feel cold and nauseous."

After hearing this, Gu Tingxiao frowned and stood up, walked to the small kang and looked at his somewhat weak daughter.

His brows were furrowed so tightly that they could pinch a fly to death. He never expected that his promotion would cause his daughter to suffer.

"There are people coming every day, so there is no peace at home."

Gu Tingxiao checked Yi Yi's condition and felt relieved when he saw that she was sleeping very soundly and breathing evenly.

He walked over and sat down to comfort Sheng Wanyan. Sheng Wanyan knew that she shouldn't blame him, but as a mother, she just felt uncomfortable.

This was the first time Yi Yi fell ill, and Sheng Wanyan must have some complaints in her heart.

As a mother, seeing her child in pain, she felt sad and painful too.

"Wife, don't open the door when they come next time."

"I'll take care of it."

Those aunties and soldiers' wives don't mind the cold in this winter and they like to go outside so much.

I remember it was winter and there was not a single shadow of a person outside.

"Will that affect your transfer back to Kyoto?"

Sheng Wanyan allowed them in just because Gu Tingxiao would be transferred back to Kyoto in the future, so that the family would not have to be separated.

This is to avoid Gu Tingxiao being transferred back and being blamed by everyone behind his back.

"It's okay, I'll take care of it."

"You and your daughter can't be wronged."

Gu Tingxiao gently tidied up the loose hair on her cheeks and coaxed Sheng Wanyan for a long time before calming her temper.

Gu Tingxiao rarely saw his wife being so petty, not to mention it was really exciting.

Sheng Wanyan didn't even cook that day and ordered him to do things with confidence.

Gu Tingxiao laughed in his heart, thinking that his wife was doing well and would tell him about any grievances she had.

Not to mention cooking one meal, he can even cook three meals a day and serve his wife well.

While eating, Sheng Wanyan thought of an important matter, which was Gu Tingxiao's dinner invitation as he was promoted.

"You're getting a promotion, so shouldn't you treat everyone to a meal?"

"Well, maybe in two days."

It should be said that not only their family will treat us to a meal, but several leaders of Gu Tingxiao's regiment will also treat us, except for Deputy Company Commander Wu of course.

However, the team leader Gu Tingxiao had not spoken yet, and no one dared to act before him.

"Then let's do it the day after tomorrow. Yi Yi still needs to get enough rest."

Since Sheng Wanyan set the date, Gu Tingxiao naturally had no objection and he went to inform everyone the next day.

Fortunately, Yi Yi didn't have a fever and had regained a lot of energy the next day.

But she still had a runny nose, so Sheng Wanyan gave her another dose of cold liquid.

Yi Yi felt much better in the afternoon and lay on the bed playing with the necklace that Gu's father gave her.

Maodou lay beside her to keep her company while Sheng Wanyan went to prepare the daily meals. There would be many people coming tomorrow, so a lot of things needed to be prepared.

The meat can be cut first and frozen in the snow pile in the yard.

You can just take it out and thaw it tomorrow, which can save a lot of time.

Since it's a promotion banquet, it must have good intentions. There are so many people, so preparing ten dishes, one soup and one staple food is just right.

Sheng Wanyan decided on the menu first so that she wouldn't be too flustered every day.

Braised pork, braised fish, stewed cabbage with pork, boiled chicken, fried meat with peppers, egg custard, scrambled eggs with leeks, stir-fried seasonal vegetables, cold cucumber salad, cold fungus salad.

Sheng Wanyan did not plan to prepare white flour steamed buns as the staple food, as so many dishes were enough, so she would prepare vegetable steamed buns as the staple food.

The soup is naturally chicken soup. Put a whole chicken in to boil it, and then scoop it out and use it to make boiled chicken.

Why not use one chicken to serve two purposes?

Sheng Wanyan decided on the menu, tidied the house, and then went back to the room to play with Yi Yi.

Yi Yi got tired after playing for a while and dozed off, still holding the necklace that Gu's father gave her.

Sheng Wanyan knew that she was sleepy because of drinking oral liquid for colds, so she reached out and patted her back gently, and she soon fell asleep.

There were really not many people coming to the door today. There were quite a few people knocking on the door in the morning, but Sheng Wanyan didn't even go to open it.

Not many people came in the afternoon, and if there were any, there were only one or two. Sheng Wanyan pretended not to hear.

If they were allowed in again, would Yi Yi still need to rest?

What's more, if the quarrels continue like this, there will be no quiet day in the house.

But they didn't knock on their own door, but went to knock on the door opposite.

Grandma Sheng was so angry that she almost died. It would be fine if these people came once, but why did they come to chat with them every day now?
