Chapter 33 Many Things Cannot Be Compared
"Captain Ding, Comrade Yu, please take a seat. We have two more dishes and they will be ready soon."
Lu Youyou greeted the two of them to take their seats with a standard business smile.
Ding Tiesheng was in a good mood when he thought about the fact that Gu Qingye married a wife with a questionable background. They didn't even dare to hold the banquet in the cafeteria and could just give him porridge and pickles.
After walking two steps and seeing that no one was following him, Ding Tiesheng turned around and tugged at Yu Ting secretly: "Hurry up, I have something to tell you when I get back."
Ding Tiesheng knew Yu Ting's personality too well. If he had told her earlier, she would have been gloating by now.
He didn’t know whether others would laugh at Gu Qingye, but they would definitely laugh at him.
Yu Ting thought about the money and effort this person had contributed today, and finally sat down reluctantly.
Lu Youyou knew that this couple were not easy to get along with. Although Gu Qingye was cold, he would joke when he was with Jiang Huaili and Wang Youcai. When he met Ding Tiesheng at noon, he was very businesslike.
Moreover, she has seen many people like Yu Ting, whose ambitions are as high as the sky but whose minds are as narrow as needles. If she gets close to her, she will only bring trouble upon herself.
After fulfilling his duties as a host, Lu Youyou looked at Li Sanhua and said, "Sister-in-law, where are the children playing? I'll go call them."
"I'll go, I'll go, don't worry about it." Seeing that Lu Youyou had prepared a separate table for the children, Li Sanhua smiled and said, "It's enough for the children to just have one bite. You are too meticulous!"
Lu Youyou: "When you come, you are a guest. You can't fool around just because the child is young."
Li Sanhua couldn't stop laughing. All the kids in the compound were raised in a free-range manner, running around from one house to another all day long. Only Lu Youyou treated those naughty kids as serious guests.
Soon, a group of little rascals came back, led by Wang Aijun, followed by his military advisor, Jiang Huaili's son Jiang Ping'an.
"Sister, you are so beautiful!" A three-inch-tall man looked at Lu Youyou with starry eyes.
Wang Aijun rubbed his forehead and whispered, "It's Auntie."
"elder sister!"
"Aunt!"
Wang Aijun was anxious. Didn't he want to call her sister? He had already been beaten by his mother. If it wasn't for the sake of saving his younger brother's butt, he wouldn't have bothered to care.
Jiang Ping'an also whispered: "Gangdan, if you call me sister, your father will become Uncle Gu's father, you...ah, who hit me!"
Jiang Huaili grabbed his ear and scolded him with a smile: "Who said you hit you? What do you mean your father or my father? Do you still know your own father?"
Everyone present started laughing, especially the instructor of the first battalion, Gangdan's father, who was extremely happy.
"Don't tell me, if Gangdan can be as successful as our Captain Gu in the future, then my life will be complete!"
Those who had children were all laughing and talking, but those who didn't have children, like Zhao Wan, had only a forced smile on their faces. But thinking that this was a happy day, she could only raise the corners of her mouth.
She couldn't help but glance at her husband. Luo Hongqi still had a gentle look on his face and was talking to someone next to him, but his hands on his knees were clenched into fists.
Not having children has always been a pain for both of them. She has been taking medicine for several years for this. Time flies after she turned 30, and she doesn’t know if she will have the chance to fulfill her wish in this life.
On the other side, Yu Ting became more and more annoyed the more she listened, and the chattering of the children made her even more annoyed.
Ding Tiesheng has said several times that he wants to have a child, but he feels heartbroken whenever he thinks of his ex-wife's difficult labor. Besides, jobs in the city are very limited, so who would help her take over if she gets pregnant?
Her sister-in-law is at home taking care of the kids. If she is asked to take over for three months, it is not certain whether she can get her job back.
Lu Youyou led a group of idiots into the house. In the main room, there was a table made of benches and surrounded by a circle of low stools.
Wang Aijun took a deep breath and said, "Ah, it smells so good!"
Jiang Pingan followed suit: "It smells so good!"
The children gathered around the table, each one more intoxicated than the other, and began to exclaim “What a delicious smell!” one after another.
Lu Youyou smiled and said, "Just eat your meal obediently. If you have any problems, come out and call Auntie. Got it?"
Wang Aijun saluted like an adult: "Yes, sir!"
As soon as Li Sanhua arrived, she saw her son acting funny and tapped his forehead with a smile: "You are the only one who is not behaving yourself. Eat quickly and keep an eye on your brothers and sisters."
"Wang Aijun pouted and said 'oh'.
Li Sanhua helped Lu Youyou serve the dishes, followed by Gu Qingye, who was holding a bowl of freshly cooked pork ribs and kelp soup.
Yu Ting was wondering why Gu Qingye was not there just now. Now she saw him coming out of the kitchen wearing an apron, and his mouth was faster than his brain.
"Captain Gu, why are you cooking?!"
The conversations in twos and threes suddenly became quiet.
Ding Tiesheng gritted his teeth and pulled Yu Ting's sleeve, and immediately took over the conversation: "Yes, I didn't expect that Captain Gu would cook personally. We are in for a treat!" After saying that, he pulled her again.
Who cares who cooks?
Gu Qingye would rather be obsessed with beauty, have a wife and children and a warm bed every day, and have no interest in his career.
Unfortunately, men and women think differently. Ding Tiesheng's mind is full of career and economy, while Yu Ting is thinking about why Lu Youyou can do nothing.
If he was a loser, Yu Ting would definitely laugh at him for having no status at home or outside.
But Gu Qingye is different.
Not only was he promising, but he also came out of the kitchen so calmly, not caring about being seen, and apparently not caring about what others said.
One is a 24-year-old battalion commander who is willing to do housework, while the other has to grumble even when eating or shopping.
Many things cannot be compared. Only by comparing them will you realize that the things you are proud of are nothing.
Yu Ting picked up a piece of braised pork and found it tasted so good that she couldn't eat it anymore.
Why did Gu Qingye do better than her? !
"Girl, this soup is so delicious!"
Ever since she heard that kelp could cure diseases, Li Sanhua became more interested in the pot of soup than anything else. Everyone else started to eat the meat, but she was the only one who served the soup first.
I thought I might not be able to get used to eating things from the sea, but to my surprise, there was not even any fishy smell at all.
Lu Youyou smiled and said, "Drink more if you like. I made two cans. There are also some on the children's table."
Wang Aijun had been listening to the adults talking with his ears perked up. When he heard that the soup was good, he immediately ate the braised pork in the bowl and filled his own bowl.
Just one sip and you'll be conquered.
He knew that his nose would not be wrong. It had a similar scent last night. No, it was more fragrant yesterday than today!
"Mr. Gu, you are so lucky! My sister-in-law has amazing cooking skills!"
Even after hearing it several times, Lu Youyou still couldn't help laughing.
He became an old man at such a young age. Among the battalion-level cadres in their thirties and forties, Gu Qingye was indeed too young.
"Before Captain Gu got married, I really didn't realize he was a man who loved his wife. He was reluctant to let her cook for him even though she had such good cooking skills."
Yu Ting still couldn't help it. She felt indignant, but she had no place to vent her anger. She could only say a few sarcastic words and then pinch her man's leg under the table.
The soldiers' legs were covered with lumps of flesh, and Ding Tiesheng had a layer of skin pulled on it, and he cried out in pain.
