Chapter 28: Beauty is a feast for the eyes



Jiang Zao's hands, which were kneading the dough, stopped.

"Stay...stay away from me..."

Xiao Shuisheng had a smile on his face and said in a serious tone, "What's wrong? Zao'er doesn't like me getting too close?"

"No, you're disturbing me from cooking." Jiang Zao frowned slightly, and her face from the corners of her eyes to her cheeks looked like she had blush on, with a hint of pink in her white.

Xiao Shuisheng couldn't bear to tease her any further because of her behavior. He raised his hand and gently touched Jiang Zao's cheek, feeling the soft and elastic skin. He couldn't let go and touched it again, then restrained himself and put his hand into his pocket.

"Okay, I'll wait for you over there."

The man's fiery breath took a few steps back. Jiang Zao was still nervous, but it didn't affect her cooking.

After kneading the dough, she took out the kneading board and stretched the dough into thin noodles.

Xiao Shuisheng wanted to help: "Do you want to boil some water?"

Jiang Zao cleaned the pot until it was shiny, so he could put water in it and boil it directly: "Just scoop two scoops of water and pour it in."

Xiao Shuisheng did as he was told. After adding water, he pulled up the corners of the wood and threw them into the stove. He found some dead leaves under the firewood and placed them under the firewood to start the fire. The flames instantly ignited the dead leaves.

The water in the iron pot was roasting, and white bubbles appeared. The noodles in Jiang Zao's hands were also stretched.

She put the noodles in and turned to make the egg and chili stew.

She cracked the eggs into a bowl and stirred them into foam with chopsticks, then poured them into another pan to fry. She quickly removed the white tendons and seeds from the peppers, then removed the pepper stems, and cut them into pieces.

After cutting the eggs, pour them into egg crumbs, add some seasonings such as soybean paste, and finally add the chili peppers and stir-fry, thicken with water starch, and sprinkle with chopped green onions before serving.

Cook the noodles on the other side, rinse with cold water, place in a bowl, and pour the chili and egg sauce on top.

The white noodles are topped with hot sauce, and just the smell of it makes people's mouths water.

Xiao Shuisheng took the bowl and ate on the table under the tree outside.

Jiang Zao made him a cup of tea, sat beside him, and fanned him slowly with a fan.

"Is it tasty?"

Xiao Shuisheng had already tasted it and said, "It's delicious. Zao'er's cooking skills have improved again."

The eggs are soft and crispy, the chilies retain a hint of fragrance even after being cooked, the stew is neither salty nor bland, and the noodles are soft, springy and chewy.

Jiang Zao seemed to be fanning himself, but in fact the wind from the fan was facing Xiao Shuisheng.

Jiang Shan hugged Xiao Mingsheng and said, "Brother Mingsheng, I can cook too. I cook better than my second sister. Come to my house someday and I'll cook for you."

Xiao Mingsheng: "I'm looking forward to it."

Not long after Xiao Shuisheng finished his meal, someone came to his house and started to busy himself, looking very happy.

Between nine and ten o'clock, Li Ming came to pick people up. After a while of commotion, he let the bride out. Jiang Jun carried Jiang Xing out and put her on Li Ming's bicycle.

The children crowded at the door and on the wall to watch the bride. Liu Chunhua bought some peanut residue candy for them. It was called candy but it was not really candy. She bought a bunch of it for a few cents. The children happily gathered together to see whose candy was bigger and sweeter.

Li Ming borrowed a bicycle with a big red flower hanging on it. He shouted and rode away with Jiang Xing on his back.

Jiang Zao stood in the crowd with a sweet smile.

Congratulations to my sister on getting married. It’s time to live her previous life again.

Next, she looked towards the Jiang family's yard.

It’s the second brother.

In her previous life, she gave her job to her beloved second sister-in-law, but in return she was despised by her seriously ill self.

Now that I have lost my job, I wonder how wonderful life will be for my second brother, his wife and my mother!

After sending the bride away and preparing the meal, the guests at the table were noisy and could not eat much. Xiao Shuisheng called Jiang Zao out and said, "Come on, I'll take you to the state-owned restaurant to eat."

Jiang Zao had been busy in front of and behind people just now, and didn't want to be bothered by the noise at home, so he went out with him.

She ordered three dishes and a soup at the state-owned restaurant, and her stomach was bloated with food.

After eating, the two of them went for a walk in the park before Xiao Shuisheng went back.

At night, Liu Chunhua lit the lights in her room and discussed the gift money with Jiang Ming and Jiang Dashan.

Liu Chunhua said with satisfaction under the lamp: "I received thirty yuan. Xiao Shuisheng gave five yuan, Xiao Mingsheng gave two yuan, and Jiang Shan didn't write a gift account."

The third brother was not at work in the afternoon, so she and a young woman she knew from the neighbor's house washed the pots and pans. She was a little angry at first, but she calmed down when she saw the gift money from Xiao Shuisheng.

Jiang Ming rested his elbows on the table. "If they didn't write it, then they didn't write it. Our relationship with Second Uncle and Second Aunt is like that. If they can write together, it means they have a conscience."

Jiang Dashan looked a little hurt and didn't say anything.

After checking the bill, Liu Chunhua rolled up the money with a thin yellow rubber band and said, "Second brother, go back to sleep."

This money is for the second son to marry a wife.

Jiang Ming watched Qian Manyi leave.

The old couple lay in bed. Liu Chunhua comforted Jiang Dashan: "You and Dahe have been separated for more than 20 years. You are his brother, not his father. You were good to him in the past. Let us be filial to your parents so that they won't worry in the underworld. Don't blame you for his lack of conscience. It's his fault."

Jiang Dashan sighed softly.

Seeing that he hadn't come out yet, Liu Chunhua fanned herself until it creaked. "The eldest is getting married, and we've received our share of the wedding money. It's time to arrange a date for the second. I've heard privately that Liu Cui has two older brothers who haven't married yet, and they're just waiting for her to get married. Her mother is a bitch and petty, and she and her second aunt have been fighting for half a year over a little jealousy."

She didn't want to mention this matter on her daughter's wedding day.

Who made him bother Jiang Daha's family?

He's still thinking about others before he's even settled his own issues. Let's see if he still cares about them this time!

The effect is obvious.

Two of my three brothers are still single, and my mother is a bitch.

Jiang Dashan's eyebrows were bent into the shape of the word "川", and he kept sighing like an old bitter gourd.
