Chapter 43 Eating wind doesn't taste as good as eating rice



Zhang Tong quickly kneaded the dough and let it rest before starting to prepare the filling.

Chop the chives into small pieces, mix them with the scrambled eggs, and add salt and oil.

After preparing the filling, wash the cucumbers, cut them into sections, and flatten them to make a cold dish.

I chopped four tomatoes, sprinkled them with a few grains of sugar, and they can be eaten as a vegetable or as a fruit.

Once the dough had risen enough, I started making dumplings.

Liu Xiaolan glanced at the door and lowered her voice.

"Auntie, is that her inside?"

She raised her finger and pointed to her head.

Zhang Tong didn't hide it from her; she must have figured it out earlier.

"Yes, this child is a little different from others, but she is a good child, obedient, and lovely. She can often make people laugh."

Isn't it just that it can make people laugh?

He's only been here a few days, but he's already done several things that are both laughable and lamentable.

"By the way, her name is Zhou Shi, and she is Xie Lin's wife."

As Zhang Tong said this, he glanced at Liu Xiaolan discreetly.

Seeing that she looked normal, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Anyone with eyes can see what this person means to Xie Lin.

She had tried to match them up before, since they were a handsome couple.

Unfortunately, Xie Lin had no such intentions whatsoever, and could even be described as somewhat impatient with Liu Xiaolan's frequent attempts to curry favor, so she gave up on the idea.

A married couple has to face each other every day. If there's no intention to stay together, forcing it will only lead to resentment and make them an unhappy couple. There's no need for that.

She is now actually glad that she didn't ask back then.

Xie Lin's patience with Zhou Shi shows just how important it is to meet the right person.

Even if there is no romantic relationship between them at the moment, at least one person is willing to pamper them, and the other is worthy of pampering.

Liu Xiaolan smiled and said, "Auntie, I heard from my roommate last night that Brother Xie got married. So this is her. She is very beautiful."

As for the rest, well...

So what if she's pretty? She's an idiot, a country bumpkin, she's not worthy of being compared to her.

She was determined to make those who laughed at her last night pay for it.

Xie Lin will one day realize just how good he is.

Only someone as outstanding as her deserves to stand beside an equally outstanding man.

She sneered inwardly, but maintained a completely natural expression on her face.

Seeing that she didn't seem uncomfortable, Zhang Tong assumed that she had let it go, since Xie Lin had never given her a response.

Three-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged men are a dime a dozen.

Besides, she was the most beautiful girl in the camp, with outstanding looks, so there was no need for her to be hung up on one person.

Her tone became lighter, and she started talking more.

"Yes, that girl is indeed beautiful. You know what, standing next to Xiao Xie, they really are a perfect match."

"The little girl is very attached to Xiao Xie, and Xiao Xie also spoils her like a child. The couple is very fun."

As she spoke, she laughed, clearly thinking of the scene of Xie Lin coaxing the child.

Only when you truly care about someone will you have more patience to teach them and help them grow.

A chill ran through Liu Xiaolan's heart. She didn't respond to her words, but her eyes caught sight of the apples placed to the side. She walked over and took one.

"Auntie, let me wash an apple for my sister-in-law. She must be bored being alone in the house."

“Okay, that girl should like it.” Zhang Tong nodded and went to check on the dough’s rising stage.

Inside the room, the guy who had eaten a lot of wind was already fast asleep, sprawled out on all fours.

It's cool when there's a breeze, and I sleep very soundly without twisting or turning.

I don't know what he was dreaming about, but he had a silly smile on his face and kept smacking his lips.

Liu Xiaolan stood by the bed with an apple in her hand, her eyes growing colder.

Fool, don't think you're so great just because you've taken advantage of Brother Xie.

Just wait, you'll have your day.

Her response was a sleep-talking remark: "Hehe, stinky egg, eat the corner."

Liu Xiaolan rolled her eyes and mischievously turned on the fan's timer, setting it to five minutes.

You deserve to die of heat; an idiot like you doesn't deserve such good stuff.

The thought of which yard this fan came from makes me uncomfortable.

That's Xie Lin's courtyard, and it will be her home in the future, so this fan will be hers. What a bargain for that idiot, pshaw.

"Auntie, my sister-in-law is asleep, I didn't wake her up."

She put the apple back into the net bag.

Her food is not fit for fools.

Are you asleep?

Zhang Tong hurriedly washed his hands and went inside.

Just as she expected, the fan was blowing directly on her head. She was sure she would be looking for her head when she woke up, and her head would hurt if it was blowing on her head for too long.

I helped her remove the flower from her hair, moved a stool to the bedside, put the fan down, turned it so it was blowing on her lower body, and covered her stomach with a thin blanket.

A girl's navel can let in drafts, and a girl's body shouldn't be exposed to cold drafts, as it's not good for having children later.

She was so focused on people that she didn't notice the fan was on time and the time was up very quickly.

As expected, just as she finished cooking the dumplings and was about to call everyone for dinner, the little drama queen came out crying.

"Egg, Brain, find Brain quickly."

She doesn't know when she developed this habit, but the first thing she does when she gets up is look in the mirror.

Humans say that going out without tidying up after waking up is disrespectful to the people you are about to meet.

She got used to it as she learned.

I never used to get hot or sweaty, and my brain always stayed perfectly functioning.

The only time I didn't see my beautiful brain was when I was sleeping before coming to this place.

She remembered that before going to sleep that time, she fought with a very large fish for a long time. Her head was caught in the grip of the fish with many legs, and she was pulled into the water hole that she had opened to lure the fish.

It took her a long time to pull the brain out.

Then, when I went to sleep that night, I looked in the mirror the next morning and my beautiful brain was gone. I couldn't find it no matter how hard I looked.

She searched and searched, bumped her head and fell asleep again. When she woke up, she was here.

It's a good place here. There's delicious food, rotten eggs to buy her, eggs to bathe her, and even new shells. She likes all of these very much.

The downside is that her beautiful brain always seems to disappear, which is driving this little zombie crazy.

She loves her current brain and doesn't want to lose it at all.

Zhang Tong didn't have time to think much and quickly pulled the person back into the house to change clothes and comb their hair.

In early August, the daytime temperature was high, and she was soaking wet, as if she had been in water, with sweat dripping from her hair.

After tidying up, I asked, "Did you turn off the fan when you got up in the middle of the night?"

"It's not turned off, it's broken, it won't move." Little Shishi was extremely aggrieved.

She woke up feeling unbearably hot and tried to hug a fan to blow air into her mouth and cool her stomach, but there was no air at all.

Zhang Tong looked at it, then turned the switch again, and the fan started spinning.

"It's not broken, it's just timed. Okay, go wash your face and hands, then you can eat dumplings. They have eggs."

Upon hearing that it was edible, the fan was instantly forgotten, and he rushed out of the house.

Eating wind doesn't taste as good as eating rice.

Zhang Tong chuckled and turned off the fan that had just started spinning, then went to the kitchen to get the dishes.
