He said one word to her face.
"shrimp."
There are no shrimp for sale in the city. Bailu asked, "What are you doing with shrimp? Are you daydreaming about eating them?"
Wang Cuihua waited for Xiao Cheng to say no, but instead received only one word: "Okay".
What's so good about it!
There are no shrimp for sale in the city, but Brother Xiao Cheng promised Bai Lu that he was going to go to the river to catch shrimp.
There aren't many shrimp along the river. When the neighbors go fishing with nets, they might catch a few small crabs at most. They might not see any shrimp for ten days or half a month, and if they do, there are very few.
It's just something to taste, not something you can eat as a main dish.
Bai Lu was simply making things difficult for Brother Xiao Cheng.
Wang Cuihua didn't hear what was said after that; all she could hear was Bailu's difficult request to eat shrimp.
So as soon as she hung up the phone, she couldn't help but say to Bai Lu, "How could you make things so difficult for Brother Xiao Cheng? You know there are no shrimp for sale in the city, yet you still want to eat shrimp. Do you want Brother Xiao Cheng to go to the river to catch them for you? There aren't many shrimp in the river. How long do you expect Brother Xiao Cheng to catch them?"
“You’ve already torn the green beans, so just eat the green beans. Doing this will make Brother Xiao Cheng angry. I’ll stay and cook for you.”
Upon hearing the last key point, Bai Lu said rather childishly, "Acheng likes to catch shrimp for me and cook for me. His cooking is delicious. He'll cook when he gets back tonight, so you don't need to worry about it."
Wang Cuihua knew that Bai Lu was deliberately lying to anger her, but she still couldn't help feeling envious and jealous.
"You can't do that, Brother Xiao Cheng is so busy with his business..."
