Chapter 14 Grilled Lamb Chops

After returning to the family compound, Lin Momo started to melt the lard with the fat, while Cheng Jinghao marinated the lamb chops and then went out of the kitchen.

"Momo, go chop wood." Cheng Jinghao's voice came from the yard.

"Okay." Lin Momo responded.

Not long after, Cheng Jinghao came back dragging two dead trees and started chopping wood in the yard.

Lin Momo came out of the kitchen and was surprised to see Cheng Jinghao shirtless and waving a hatchet.

Lin Momo swallowed subconsciously, "Cheng Jinghao, in this 20-degree temperature, do you really need to be shirtless?"

"You have a bad temper." Cheng Jinghao's words made Lin Momo more excited. She moved a chair and sat in front of Cheng Jinghao.

"Cheng Jinghao, did your generation have a romantic relationship?" Her voice was very soft. After all, their courtyard was only separated from Zhao Zhigang's by a wall.

Cheng Jinghao stopped what he was doing and looked at her with burning eyes.

"If you were dating, how could you accompany me to die? You would have forgotten about me, your childhood sweetheart, long ago." Lin Momo said to herself.

Cheng Jinghao sighed softly and let her do the talking. What did he say?

"Cheng Jinghao, do all of you soldiers have such good figures?" Lin Momo looked at Cheng Jinghao's abdominal muscles and couldn't help asking.

"What? You still want to see others?" Cheng Jinghao looked at her with an unfriendly look.

"I'm just asking. Imagine a row of soldiers standing there with their abdominal muscles showing. Oh, I feel shy just thinking about it." Lin Momo said shyly, covering her face.

"See how many poisonous videos you watch." Cheng Jinghao had finished chopping the firewood.

Get ready to clean up and start cooking.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Lin Momo hurriedly followed him, but he stopped and turned around after taking just two steps, and Lin Momo ran directly into his arms.

"ah!"

"Are you okay?" Cheng Jinghao helped her up.

"Why did you stop? My nose hurts." Lin Momo rubbed her nose.

"Go back and get the hatchet." Cheng Jinghao was speechless. He didn't know she would follow him.

"You, you, you..." Lin Momo looked up and found that Cheng Jinghao was so close to her, shirtless.

Although we had already done it yesterday, the impact was different.

Because of the height difference, her face was only a fist away from Cheng Jinghao's chest.

Cheng Jinghao raised the corners of his lips where Lin Momo couldn't see, and the little girl blushed.

"We'll set up a rack in the yard later and grill lamb chops. Please bring out some cumin and chili powder." Cheng Jinghao's voice sounded from above Lin Momo's head.

"Oh." Lin Momo reacted now and took a step back.

"Is it okay to grill in the yard?" Is it okay to be smelled by others?

"Let's go home today and buy some mutton." Cheng Jinghao explained.

Cheng Jinghao put away the firewood and washed his hands in the yard. Seeing that Lin Momo hadn't moved yet, he walked up to her.

"What?"

"It's okay, it's okay." Lin Momo flashed into the space and arrived at the lobby on the first floor. She didn't realize what space she had entered. She could just take it directly.

While Lin Momo was selecting the seasoning for the barbecue, she thought of what happened just now.

"Lin Momo, why are you being so infatuated with Cheng Jinghao?" Lin Momo shook her head, trying to get rid of the scene in her mind.

When he came out again, Cheng Jinghao had already set up his legs and was wearing only a shirt.

"Go into the room and wait. I'll call you later. The temperature outside is going to drop soon." Cheng Jinghao looked at her.

"It's okay, just put on some more clothes. You must be so bored alone. I'll chat with you for a while." Lin Momo went in and came out putting on a coat.

Cheng Jinghao glanced at her but did not stop her.

After Lin Momo moved the horse and sat next to Cheng Jinghao, he spoke.

"Momo, do you remember the time when we stole peaches from Aunt Zhang next door?"

"Yeah, I remember. We seemed to be over 8 years old at that time. You picked them from the trees and threw them to me." Lin Momo smiled sweetly, and the scene at that time seemed to appear in front of her eyes.

"Later, when Aunt Zhang came out, you ran away and threw yourself against a tree, causing you to be severely beaten by your father." Cheng Jinghao said with a smile.

"You were very loyal before and never betrayed me." Lin Momo looked at Cheng Jinghao.

Cheng Jinghao has always been the most naughty boy in the courtyard, and she is the most sensible girl. In fact, the adults don’t even know that it is she who comes up with the ideas and Cheng Jinghao who makes the mistakes.

Cheng Jinghao would quarrel with her every time he was beaten, but he would never betray her.

"In the second year of junior high school, the boy sitting behind me pulled my hair in class, and I cried and complained to you. I remember that after school, you chased him around the playground for several laps and beat him down."

Lin Momo looked at him. When she had her first period, they hadn't had that physiology class yet. She couldn't explain it to him, and he carried her to the infirmary, making a big joke.

"When we were in high school, you always threw the love letters from boys into the trash, and told me to tell my parents if I fell in love too early."

"......"

Lin Momo talked about their childhood, and Cheng Jinghao listened while grilling lamb chops, occasionally replying to her.

These memories seem like they were from a lifetime ago, yet they seem to be right in front of me.

"Okay." Cheng Jinghao cut off a lamb chop with a knife and handed it to Lin Momo.

"You eat first, and I'll give two to Old Zhao's kid." Cheng Jinghao cut off two more, put them on a plate, and sent them next door.

Lin Momo looked at Cheng Jinghao's back. The current Cheng Jinghao has lost the flamboyance of his youth and has become more calm and steady.

It was Zhao Zhigang who opened the door next door. "I knew it was you right away. I just smelled the aroma of roasted lamb in your house."

"Let the kid have a taste." Cheng Jinghao handed over the lamb chops and was about to turn around when he was stopped by Zhao Zhigang.

"We are newlyweds, let's eat some meat." Zhao Zhigang raised his eyebrows.

"Get out of here." Cheng Jinghao pulled his arm out.

"Brother is an experienced person, don't be shy..."

Cheng Jinghao glared at him and walked away without looking back.

When Cheng Jinghao came back, Lin Momo saw him lock the gate and took out two bottles of Happy Fat House Water from the space.

Cheng Jinghao walked over with a smile and helped her open the can.

"Ba Shi Ba Shi." Lin Momo took a bite of the lamb chop and drank a sip of Happy Fat House Water.

"Are you cold?" Cheng Jinghao touched her hand, took out his military jacket from the room and put it on her, then sat down to eat with her.

"Turn over the soil in the backyard tomorrow. We will start training later." Cheng Jinghao didn't look up.

Lin Momo looked at him, "Is the vacation about to end?"

"Um."

"Then I'll cook for you."

"Breakfast will be ready and heated up for you. You can sleep a little longer. If you don't want to cook, I will come back and make it for you." Cheng Jinghao said.

"Okay." Lin Momo nodded. She had a space weapon, so if she was too lazy, she could just take some food from the space.

Lin Momo didn't ask Cheng Jinghao whether the training was hard.

She later learned that Cheng Jinghao was a special forces soldier and watched a lot of TV shows and talked about this type of thing.
