"However, I won't be eating dinner at the educated youth center. Aunt Xie told me to go to the Gu family's house for dinner."

Ruan Qiushui took out the packaged braised pork and pork stew with vermicelli.

Both dishes were very generous in portion size; she couldn't possibly finish them all. So she packed two lunchboxes before eating.

Then I gave Chen Fenglan half a pound of rice and a few sweet potatoes, enough to make a pot of porridge.

"Alright, alright, we know you're going to see your in-laws, so we'll eat by ourselves."

Cooking a meal is nothing difficult for her.

She really didn't have any decent meat dishes on hand.

Ruan Qiushui smiled and quickly packed her things, as Gu Changfeng would be coming to pick her up soon.

Half a rabbit, a piece of cured meat, twenty eggs, a packet of brown sugar, and a can of milk powder.

Feeling that it was about time, Ruan Qiushui found a bamboo basket and put everything together.

"Ruan Ruan, I've come to pick you up."

Gu Changfeng parked his bicycle at home and hurried to pick up his wife.

Ever since he and Ruan Ruan became a couple, Gu Changfeng couldn't wait to be with her every day. He had only been apart for less than half an hour and he was already missing her.

"You two, that's enough. Is it really necessary for such a short distance?"

Chen Fenglan was truly exasperated by these two sticky people.

"Fenglan, are you there?"

Just then, Wang Jun walked in from outside carrying a basket.

"Oh dear, this is what makes it sticky."

Seeing this, Ruan Qiushui quickly joked.

"Let's go, let's go, or we'll miss our hot meal."

Chen Fenglan blushed deeply with embarrassment and quickly pushed Ruan Qiushui out the door.

"Why are you carrying so much stuff? I'll carry it back for you later."

Why not keep these things for your wife to eat? Why take them to his house?

"This is my first time visiting, am I supposed to go empty-handed? If people see me like that, they'll gossip!"

In terms of etiquette, one cannot allow anyone to find fault with it.

"Okay, then I'll have my mom give you a big red envelope."

I can't let my wife suffer a loss.

The two were chatting and laughing when the brigade's loudspeaker came on.

"Hey hey hey! Can you hear me?" x2

"I have good news for everyone. Our brigade now has a clinic. Starting tomorrow, you won't have to suffer from headaches or fevers anymore."

"The doctor at the clinic is someone everyone knows; he's none other than Ruan Qiushui, the well-known educated youth."

“Her medical skills are evident to all, so everyone can rest assured to entrust their illnesses to Ruan Zhiqing.”

"Alright, that's all for this broadcast. Goodbye!"

…

Ruan Qiushui was excited about Gu Xianjin, but she didn't expect to be this excited.

Looking at Gu Changfeng next to him again, it seems that there are some strange similarities in their bloodline.

When they arrived at the Gu family's door, Ruan Qiushui was still a little uneasy and hesitant. Unexpectedly, Gu Changfeng's loud voice called out Xie Xiuying.

"Ruan girl is here, come in and sit down."

"Oh dear, look at you, why are you carrying so many old things? How can your auntie accept this?"

Xie Xiuying looked at Ruan Qiushui with a wide smile. She quickly took the things and welcomed Ruan Qiushui into the house.

Look, no wonder he's an educated youth from the city, he knows proper manners.

"Eldest daughter, hurry up and come inside with me to get the dishes. Second daughter, get the bowls and chopsticks."

She had prepared all the dishes and was just waiting for the guests to arrive so she could serve them.

"Third sister-in-law."

He Chunhua smiled at Ruan Qiushui and hurried off to the kitchen to get busy.

"Third sister-in-law."

Zhou Lan also came over and greeted her in a friendly manner.

My mother-in-law told them everything that happened on the mountain yesterday. If it weren't for Ruan Qiushui helping to protect the children, one of them would have been kicked, and the other would have had his head broken.

They remember it and are grateful.

"Auntie, Auntie."

Ruan Qiushui was still shocked by the title "third sister-in-law" when the two little ones ran over, grabbed her hands, and led her into the house.

"What are you doing, so clumsy? Don't pull your aunt down."

Gu Changfeng stepped forward and grabbed the two boys.

This is his wife, you brat, get out of here.

"Hmph, Third Uncle is so stingy."

The two boys spoke in unison.

Don't think they don't know that when he was clinging to his mother, his father looked at him with this expression. He was annoyed that he was taking up his mother's time and disliked him.

"Hey, you two, are you looking for a fight?"

Gu Changfeng raised his arm to scare them.

"Auntie, help me!"

The two boys hid behind Ruan Qiushui, sticking out their tongues and making faces at Gu Changfeng.

They're very clever; with Auntie around, Uncle San didn't dare to move a single finger.

"Alright, why are you scaring the child? He's still so young."

These two boys are so cute with their chubby faces, what if they get hurt?

"Dinner is ready."

Xie Xiuying served all the dishes and quickly called for everyone to sit down.

Ruan Qiushui was pulled by Gu Changfeng to sit between her and Gu Zhengyang.

At this moment, Gu Changfeng's father and two older brothers also came out of the house.

The father and his two sons went to the river to catch fish to add to their meal. They had just arrived home when they went inside to change into clean clothes before coming out to greet their guests.

She's a sent-down youth from the city, an intellectual, and also the future wife of the third brother.

The three sat stiffly, afraid of saying something inappropriate or offensive that would embarrass the third brother or make Ruan Qiushui look down on them.

Most importantly, we can't ruin the third son's good marriage.

"cough."

Xie Xiuying nudged Gu Guangrong's arm.

What's wrong with this old man? He's usually so talkative, but now he's like a gourd with its mouth sawed off.

"Little Ruan, these are all your aunt's specialties today, eat more."

Gu Guangrong didn't know what to say, so he could only tell him to eat more vegetables.

As for the eldest brother, Gu Changjiang, the second brother, Gu Changshan, they were even less talkative. They just kept echoing, "Eat your food, eat your food."

"Third sister-in-law, I've been waiting for this day."

Gu Changshu was a simple-minded man. He was overjoyed to see his third brother successfully win over his third sister-in-law.

Now that he's out showing off, everyone will envy him for having such a wonderful third sister-in-law.

Another "Third Sister-in-law," and this time in front of the entire Gu family, made Ruan Qiushui so embarrassed that she couldn't speak.

"Gu Changshu, if you can't speak properly, then shut up. Even eating can't shut your mouth."

Xie Xiuying quickly came to the rescue, stood up, and stretched out her hand to pick up a piece of fish for Ruan Qiushui.

"Ruan girl, try this. This is spicy boiled fish that the third brother specially asked me to make for you. It's my first time making it, so please give me some feedback."

I don't know if it will suit my third daughter-in-law's taste.

"It's delicious, Auntie's cooking is especially authentic."

She can't live without spicy food; she feels uncomfortable if she doesn't eat spicy food for a day.

Spicy and flavorful, her favorite fish dish is spicy boiled fish, especially the spicy boiled fish soup. Add some bean sprouts and glass noodles, and it's absolutely delicious.

How did you know I like spicy food?

Spicy rabbit meat, spicy roasted chicken, and spicy boiled fish can't all be coincidences, right?

"Because I put my heart into it."

The young woman cooked all the dishes with chili peppers for her first meal after arriving at the educated youth camp. She also raved about the spicy rabbit stew he brought later; what else could it be but a lover of spicy food?
