Chapter 222 Lu Yanchuan: My wife is my life
Time flies.
Seeing that Xu Hongping's belly was getting bigger, Jiang Dongfang was very happy and worked with more energy than before. He even quit drinking without saying a word.
He said it was a mistake caused by drinking.
Moreover, whenever he gets drunk, his wife has to take care of him. Now that his wife is pregnant, it is his responsibility to take care of her.
Xu Hongping had a very difficult pregnancy. She suffered from morning sickness all the time in the first few months and her appetite was not as good as before, which might be related to her age. Her feet were also a little swollen. It was really difficult.
Fortunately, Jiang Wanying was at home and she took care of all the housework.
Xu Hongping felt bad and thought she had suffered, but Liu Liying persuaded her, saying that it was the child's filial piety and asked her not to think too much about it.
As time went by, the family discovered that Jiang Wanying's cooking skills were very good, even better than Xu Hongping's. Even Liu Liying came to eat from time to time, and she would help her.
I felt even more satisfied with this future daughter-in-law.
In her letter to Lu Yanchuan, she urged him, "Your wife's cooking skills are amazing. Didn't you learn from the cooks in the army? You have to work harder! Don't embarrass yourself later."
Lu Yanchuan frowned after receiving the letter.
Although he was quick to learn anything, it seemed like God hadn't gifted him with any skill in cooking. He could eat, but the food wasn't particularly delicious...
Thinking of the boast he made in front of the little girl, he practiced even harder.
Upon hearing the news, Jiangxi Cheng ran to the kitchen squad to find him, "Xiao Lu, why do you come here every day? People outside who don't know would think that our regiment's top soldier is going to be transferred to the kitchen squad!"
Lu Yanchuan was frying shredded potatoes, and he was so focused that he didn't pay any attention to him.
Jiang Xicheng didn't give up and continued to move closer. "Don't be silent, are you? You suddenly want to learn cooking, is it because of my precious niece?"
"That's right. That girl has never touched water since she was a child. She can't even cook, let alone cook. You'd better learn more, so that she won't go hungry later."
The other members of the kitchen team laughed and said, "Captain Jiang, you really don't care about Deputy Captain Lu. He's so tired from training every day, how can he still cook when he gets home? Then what's the point of marrying a wife? To worship her like a goddess?"
"Yes, it's true that you love your niece. In this world, men have always been the breadwinners and women the homemakers. If she can't even cook, that's too much! Even Deputy Colonel Lu can learn, so shouldn't your niece show some appreciation?"
Jiang Xicheng was unhappy. "Hey! I'm talking to you little brats! My niece can't cook, so what? She doesn't want you to marry her. Little Lu didn't say anything, but you're just here worrying about it! Go away! You're all lazy, aren't you?"
The gossiping cooks immediately ran away with their heads lowered.
Lu Yanchuan put the fried potato shreds on a plate, then picked up the chopsticks and took a bite. Hmm... the taste is better than before. It seems that the control of the heat is indeed very particular.
Jiang Xicheng snatched the chopsticks from his hand, and then consciously tasted his cooking.
"Hmm...it tastes okay, but Xiao Lu, you should just practice your cooking skills. Don't keep coming here. People outside might have something against you."
Lu Yanchuan didn't think so. "Why would they have any objections? Did I delay training or hinder the team? If anyone has any objections, let them beat me first."
