Chapter 52: Reluctant
Several children couldn't help drooling when they heard about these two foods. Except for Jiang Jianshe who could control himself, the others nodded vigorously with greedy looks on their faces and answered in unison, "We like them."
"As long as you like it, let's go." After saying that, she took the two children and walked forward first.
Along the way, several children chattered to her about the interesting things that happened to them in the mountains.
Li Yiyi was also very supportive and would laugh with them when she heard something funny.
The group of one big and six small ones looked very happy.
None of the children expected that this lunch would become the lunch they would remember the most when they grew up. Even when they had grown up and had eaten many delicious meals, they all felt that today's lunch was the most delicious.
One night, the two families sat together and ate the greasy lamb roasted on the grill.
"I never thought that I could actually eat mutton. Mutton is very nutritious. In the past, only landlords could afford it. Today, thanks to my third daughter-in-law, I can enjoy it." Father Jiang took a bite of mutton and a sip of wine. His face turned a little red from drinking.
Seeing this, Jiang's mother patted him and said, "You old man, you just drank a little horse urine and you are talking nonsense to me. Fortunately, there is only our family here. It would be bad if outsiders saw us."
The people present were looking at Jiang's father being scolded, and they were laughing secretly.
Jiang Hong then said, "Dad, Mom, I will be back in the next two days. When I am not at home, please help me take care of my wife and children. Please."
"What are you talking about, kid? Do you need a favor from us? We will take care of it. You can go back without worry. Your father and I are at home." Jiang's mother said with red eyes.
Because of this incident, the dinner was a little more melancholy.
At the end, Li Yiyi saw that there was more than a pound of roasted lamb left, so she asked Mrs. Jiang to take it back to Old Jiang's house.
At night, Jiang Hong, who had drunk a few glasses of wine with Jiang's father and his friends, pulled his wife beside him and had a good scolding on the kind of things that happen between husband and wife.
The day soon arrived when Jiang Hong returned to the team.
Jiang Hong, who originally wanted to leave secretly, was planning to get up stealthily. However, when he was halfway up, he saw his wife who was sleeping next to him suddenly sit up and rub her eyes.
Seeing that she was obviously very sleepy but still had to get up early to accompany him, he touched her hair distressedly, "If you want to sleep, sleep a little longer. Don't worry about me. I can catch the train by myself."
Li Yiyi shook her head firmly, "No way, I want to see you off."
Seeing this, Jiang Hong didn't say anything else, but leaned forward and kissed her forehead, "Then you take your time to clean up, I'll go to the kitchen to heat up the buns from last night."
Li Yiyi was very sleepy. She opened her eyes for a while and then closed them again. She didn't hear clearly what he said, but just nodded randomly.
Jiang Hong looked at her cute appearance and smiled dotingly. After letting her go, he got off the bed and left the room. After a while, he heard movement in the kitchen.
Li Yiyi also patted her cheek at this time. After finally feeling much more sober, she got out of bed, changed her clothes, and then walked under the bed and pulled out a woven bag, which contained the medicines she had secretly bought from the pharmacy in the Space Supermarket yesterday.
Although she didn't know what Yang Tao meant by what he said last time, just in case, she decided to take some anti-inflammatory drugs and a few life-saving pills from the space supermarket and let him take them for self-defense.
When she thought about how this bag of medicine cost her the money she had saved before, she felt a little sad but also felt it was worth it.
You can earn money again if you lose it, but you only have one life!
When Jiang Hong walked into the room, he saw her staring at a woven bag in a daze.
"What are you looking at so seriously?" He walked up to her and asked, staring at the woven bag she was looking at.
Li Yiyi saw him coming in and immediately handed the woven bag in her hand to him. "Here, keep it safe. There are some medicines in it that I asked my cousin to get. You carry it with you so that I can feel more at ease. Especially when you are going to carry out a mission, you must carry it with you. Do you understand me?"
Jiang Hong opened it and looked at the medicine inside. There were several packets of medicine inside, and each packet had a medicine name written on it. He recognized the handwriting as hers.
When Jiang Hong thought that this was specially prepared for him, his heart warmed. He held the bag tightly and held her in his arms with his other hand. "I heard you. I promise, I will always carry them with me."
She immediately thought of what she needed to tell him, so she pushed him away, got out of his arms, and told him seriously, "Also, don't skimp on the ten bottles of beef sauce I prepared when you take them back. It doesn't last long. Beef jerky can be kept a little longer, though. If you're hungry after training, use them to fill your stomach, but don't skimp on them. If you've finished eating, write to me and I'll make it for you and mail it to you when it's done."
"Okay, I'll remember that." Jiang Hong responded while grabbing her hand.
After saying these words, the air seemed to quiet down, and both of them felt reluctant to part with each other.
He raised his thin and slender hands to hold her face, and gently rained kisses on her eyebrows and eyes.
He kissed her very gently, as if he was kissing the most precious treasure in the world.
Li Yiyi was a little confused at first, but slowly, she responded to his actions.
Gradually, the two's behavior got a little out of control. Seeing that unspeakable things would happen if this continued, Jiang Hong quickly stopped it.
He panted and moved his hand away from her face. He said hoarsely in her ear, "Wife, when I'm not at home, you must take good care of yourself and the two children. Don't be reluctant to eat to save money. Your husband has been promoted now, and his salary is 20 yuan higher than before. As soon as I get my salary, I will remit it back. You can buy whatever you want to eat, understand?"
Li Yiyi felt sad after hearing this. Before she met him, she wished he would not come back, but now, she was reluctant to let him leave.
"I know. Don't worry. I won't let myself and my two children down." She lowered her head and answered him in a muffled voice.
Seeing this, Jiang Hong hugged her again with heartache.
Next, Li Yiyi accompanied him to finish breakfast, and at dawn, a police car stopped at the door of the house.
A tall man got out of the car. As soon as he entered the Jiang family yard, he grinned at her, "Hello, sister-in-law. My name is Wang Kuanzhi, and I was a comrade-in-arms with Brother Jiang."
Jiang Hong held her hand and introduced her casually, "His name is Wang Kuanzhi, and he now works for the police in the city. I asked him to come this time, in addition to sending me to the train station, for another reason, which is to let him recognize our home. If you encounter any problems that you can't solve in the future, just go to the police station and ask him for help. You're welcome."
