As a person who loves cooking, I am naturally happy when others sincerely praise my cooking skills.
Chen Jiao smiled and said, "I'm just greedy and like to research some food. It's fine as long as you get used to it."
She had meant to be a little more modest.
But Lu Zhengxu was not modest at all. He proudly said to everyone, "Of course your sister-in-law's cooking skills are good. Before, she was in our hometown, but she passed the exam and became a chef in a state-owned restaurant. She also relied on her excellent cooking skills to revive the state-owned restaurants that were about to be closed down."
Chen Jiao couldn't help but secretly glare at the man. How could a person be like him?
No humility at all.
After Wang Qiang listened carefully to Lu Zhengxu's words, he looked at Chen Jiao with even more admiration, "Sister-in-law, with your skills, if you were born in an age when you can do business, you would definitely make a fortune."
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Haitao kicked him and said, "Nonsense! You are such a jerk, you dare to say anything!"
"Hehe!" Wang Qiang realized that he had said something wrong, touched his short hair awkwardly and smiled.
The situation outside is very unclear now.
Although various places have relaxed their control over the black market, they should be more cautious in their words and actions during times like this, especially for people of their status.
If words like these were to get out, there's no telling what kind of impact they would have.
Afterwards, the men drank and talked about things in the army. After Chen Jiao finished her meal, seeing that the men were still enjoying their drinks, she took the two children to wash up and go to bed.
She read a book in the morning and prepared dinner in the afternoon. Although she was not very tired, she did not get a good rest last night because of the torment she received from her man. She fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow tonight.
In the middle of the night, she was awakened by the heat.
It has been a cold snap in recent days and the temperature is quite low.
Chen Jiao was wondering why it was so hot, and when she opened her eyes, she met the man's deep eyes that were slightly red.
The man's eyes, red like those of an aroused beast, stared at her without blinking, and it was clear in his eyes that he was planning how to tear her apart and eat her.
"Jiaojiao, I feel so uncomfortable..."
The man leaned close to her ear, and his voice, as deep and hoarse as a subwoofer, was filled with forbearance and grievance.
Chen Jiao's heart skipped a beat and she felt a little nervous.
I was just about to ask him what was wrong.
He held her small hand with his big hand, letting her feel him, "I miss you so much, it hurts!"
Chen Jiao: ...
The next moment, the man grabbed her slender waist with his big hands, truly eating her into his stomach and becoming one with her.
When Chen Jiao fainted from exhaustion, she saw that the sky outside the window had turned pale.
Her last thought was that she still had to find a way to get rid of the remaining effects of the drug in the man's body.
Otherwise, if the attack started, her small body really wouldn't be able to bear it.
The next day, when Chen Jiao got up, Lu Zhengxu was not at home again. The two little guys had already eaten breakfast, packed their schoolbags, and were waiting for her to get up.
Chen Jiao felt a little ashamed.
She is such an incompetent mother.
She can't get up every morning, and not only can't take care of her children, but she even asks her children to take care of her instead.
After dinner, she sent the two little ones to kindergarten.
"Jiaojiao, are you sending the kids to school?"
Li Junhua was picking vegetables in the yard. When he saw her coming out with the child, he greeted her enthusiastically.
Chen Jiao also responded with a smile: "Sister Li, you are here so early!"
Li Junhua smiled and said, "It's getting late. Let's prepare the lunch. We have to hurry to work!"
Li Junhua has been with the army for ten years. Her husband is the deputy regiment commander, a relatively high position, and the army has already assigned her a job.
She worked as a salesperson in a military grocery store, which was a very popular job.
Li Junhua picked up a basket of vegetables and said, "Jiaojiao, wait for me for a moment. I will bring the vegetables back and go with you."
The kindergarten and the grocery store are in the same direction, so it is normal for Li Junhua to walk with her.
Chen Jiao didn't think much about it, and took the two little ones to wait for Li Junhua to go back and put the vegetables out before leaving with her.
"Jiaojiao, how do you and your child feel about being in the army these past two days? Are you used to it?" Li Junhua asked Chen Jiao as they walked.
Chen Jiao smiled and said, "I'm quite used to it. Yangyang and Nannan also like it here."
Li Junhua smiled and said, "As long as you like it."
Chen Jiao saw that Li Junhua was hesitant to speak, and asked with a smile: "Sister-in-law Li, do you have anything to say to me?"
When she asked this, the smile on Li Junhua's face became a little relieved.
"It's nothing, actually. I just want to tell you that although everyone in our compound seems to be friendly on the surface, many family members have nothing to do and gossip behind your back.
You just arrived and you are Lu Zhengxu's wife, so they will inevitably talk about you behind your back. If you hear this, don't be polite to them, just respond directly. These people are the kind who only pick on the weak. The more polite you are to them, the more they think you are easy to bully. ”
After Li Junhua finished speaking, she recalled the scene when she and Chen Jiao first met, and couldn't help but smile awkwardly: "But from the perspective of sister-in-law, you don't seem like the type of person who would swallow your anger!"
Chen Jiao looked at Li Junhua's expression and knew that she had remembered that incident. She smiled and said, "Sister-in-law and I have become acquainted with each other. Thank you for reminding me. Don't worry, I will definitely not let myself suffer any loss."
As we were talking, we had already arrived at the kindergarten.
