Jiang Che was surprised and blushed, "Actually, I didn't eat much."

Ji Wanqing rolled his eyes at him. "It's a physical job. How can the food you eat be enough? You eat enough at home. Do you want people to say that I treat you badly?"

"No, no, of course!"

Ji Wanqing pushed the bowl away and said, "Eat."

Jiang Che obeyed with a smile and drank a full bowl of braised pork rice. His stomach finally felt comfortable and satisfied.

Next day, the young couple went to the agricultural machinery station to buy seeds and tiles. Jiang Che asked a few brothers from the camp to come back and help put up the beams and the roof.

To express her gratitude, Ji Wanqing invited them to stay at her home for dinner. Each person was given a pot of braised pork rice with two braised eggs. She even re-cooked the braised pork to thicken the soup, and added rock sugar and beer to enhance the flavor and reduce the greasiness.

I heard earlier that my sister-in-law cooked in the dormitory and the whole building smelled delicious. Although the guys were quite embarrassed, they shamelessly stayed.

The white rice is covered with thick red sauce and gravy, which makes you hungry at first sight!

A few people also ate with a squeak, and then finished their meal.

Before leaving, they enthusiastically helped wash the dishes and fill the water tanks with water. They also said to Jiang Che: "Captain, if there is anything at home in the future, just call us. We will provide meals!"

Jiang Che pushed the person away mercilessly: "We'll talk about it next time."

There won't be a next time.

The new bathroom was also well built. It was twice the size of the original shed and not only spacious, but also had a dry and wet toilet separated according to Ji Wanqing's request, which greatly improved the comfort of use.

In the evening, Ji Wanqing sat in front of the dressing table, combing her hair and clearing her meridians.

Jiang Che came up after washing up: "I will go to the regiment headquarters to start work in advance tomorrow. If you are bored at home alone, you can go to Coach Zheng for a leisurely job. The salary doesn't need to be high, as long as it's good for you to stay in the room alone for a long time."

Soldiers on the battlefield will undergo psychological testing and counseling regularly, so Jiang Che knows that if a person stays at home for a long time without anyone to accompany him, he will also suffer from depression.

But Ji Wanqing came from that perverted world in the end, and now she just wanted a peaceful and quiet life of lying down without doing anything.

He quickly shook his head: "No need, I think it's good to be alone at home, I can do whatever I want."

Jiang Che didn't force it: "Then you should go out more often instead of staying at home all the time."

Before getting married, he called his brother in Beijing to get a bicycle ticket. He should be able to get it in a few days, but since he didn't have the thing yet, he didn't brag about it.

The next morning, Jiang Che went out early.

Ji Wanqing woke up naturally, put on her gorgeous silk pajamas, happily ground herself a cup of coffee with Meiji coffee, and sat in the spacious courtyard watching the clouds roll in and out.

Comfortable~

Well, it would be better if the scenery of the courtyard could be spruced up a bit. It's bare as a cemetery.

“Bang, bang—”

Suddenly, there were regular knocks at the door. Ji Wanqing hurried back to the main room and changed into clothes that belonged to this era. Passing by the courtyard, he put the enamel porcelain coffee cup and gold-painted plate on the table into the space before opening the door.

Ye Yaman.

Ji Wanqing was a little surprised.

Yesterday she brought some pastries to visit. After Ye Yaman learned the purpose of her visit, she was indifferent. She gave her two packets of scented tea she made herself in return, and left without saying anything else.

So when Sister Qiuxia and Aunt Cui'e said yesterday that Ye Yaman was self-righteous and difficult to approach, Ji Wanqing was not surprised at all.

But she had a good impression of Ye Yaman, because she was the only one who gave a return gift besides Sister Hongmei and Aunt Yulan.

Although gifts and favors are not valuable, they are not very important.

"Uh, what's up?"

Ye Yaman stood at the door in a proper manner, not even glancing inside, and whispered, "I, I passed by your house and smelled the aroma of coffee beans. Can you sell me some?"

Ji Wanqing was silent.

Who would have thought that drinking a cup of coffee in a spacious courtyard could be smelled?

Drinking coffee these days can be labeled as a petty bourgeoisie and be paraded through the streets for criticism.

Ye Yaman explained in a low voice, "I don't mean to threaten you or intimidate you. I really haven't had coffee for a long time. I really want a cup."

Caffeine is addictive.

Just like greed for a life of luxury and extravagance.

Even though Ye Yaman had said goodbye to that kind of life for seven or eight years, she still forgot that exquisite, elegant, high-quality life full of style and taste.

So she likes it here.

I like dusty houses, I like coarse food, I like coarse linen clothes, and I like everyone who pays attention to hygiene.

Besides, all her other cousins ​​are enjoying life overseas, but her soul is imprisoned here, suppressed day after day, licking and reminiscing about the past.

The pursuit of a better life is an instinct engraved in the bones of human beings. It can be said that Ye Yaman is not wrong, but that she was born in the wrong era.

Seeing that Ji Wanqing was still silent, Ye Yaman had to throw more chips.

She begged: "You just need to sell me some coffee beans. I have a coffee machine at home and I can grind them myself."

The coffee machine is from the 1970s and must be an antique from abroad.

Ji Wanqing became interested: "Can I go and take a look?"

"Of course." Ye Yaman knew that the other party accepted her intention.

Only when both of them have secrets that can be discovered can they trust each other more.

Ji Wanqing went back to change her shoes and picked up a small bag filled with coffee beans.

At Ye Yaman's house, the pebbled road winds and is lined with white, purple and pink flowers, which are kept exceptionally clean and tidy.

This was the first time that Ji Wanqing saw such a beautiful and elegant courtyard in this era!

"These are potato flowers and chrysanthemum flowers. Now that flower cultivation is allowed, I can only grow some vegetables to decorate the yard."

Ye Yaman asked Ji Wanqing to wait in the yard. She went to the backyard cellar and brought up a cowhide box containing an antique Italian hand-cranked coffee machine.

The antique bronze patterns are very elegant and beautiful, and the ebony base drawer below exudes a mixed aroma of wood and coffee.

Looking at the pleasant courtyard, Ji Wanqing immediately decided: "Wait for me."

Then I went home and brought back the set of enamel coffee cups and the plates that had just been painted in gold.

Ye Yaman was very excited when she saw it.

She knew that this beautiful girl wearing a Rolex was someone who, like her, longed for a refined life!

She immediately hid it and took out an intricate and winding tablecloth from the cellar and spread it on the table. She also put a blue and white porcelain vase on top of it, and put fresh and gorgeous flowers in it.

Ji Wanqing sat contentedly in the yard, picking up the coffee cup with her bare hands and taking a light sniff.

It's so comfortable to live such a leisurely and relaxed life!

It's a pity that Ye Yaman doesn't have a reclining chair at home. It would be more comfortable if the chair swayed in the breeze.
