After finishing today's exercise, Yuan Jie planned to say goodbye and leave.
Zhao Lei called him, "Let's have breakfast together."
Ah, have breakfast together? Yuan Jie was really surprised and was about to decline.
"We had dumplings this morning, stuffed with leeks and eggs." Zhao Lei said.
"That's right, Brother Yuan, let's eat together. The dumplings my dad makes are especially delicious." Ping An also came out to assist.
He had heard Zhao Lei mention before how great Yuan Jie was, and he wondered, no matter how great he could be.
But he didn't expect that after seeing this today, he found out that Brother Yuan is really good at quarreling. He really hopes to be as good as Brother Yuan, so he has to flatter Brother Yuan.
"Xiao Jie, let's have dinner together. I've heard Xiao Ke mention you before. He said you are very capable. I didn't expect to see you again after such a long time." Wang Juan invited Yuan Jie to have dinner together.
I had heard from Zhao Lei that Wang Ke mentioned him before, and now I heard it from Wang Juan again, and I felt embarrassed again, "I'm just average, I'm not that great."
"Xiao Ke is still the best." He had heard Xiao Ke mention before that he would apply to a military academy after graduating from high school. He learned from Zhao Lei that he was admitted with high scores and was assigned to the south after graduation. He applied for Xinjiang Province on his own and participated in several small battles.
Yuan Jie sometimes wondered, if he had directly applied to serve in the army in Xinjiang Province, would the situation be different? Even his uncle would not be able to reach out to him.
Even if he could really reach out, dying on the battlefield would be better than retiring in such a miserable state.
Wang Juan and Zhao Lei looked at each other. The young man still hadn't come over. Well, who could tolerate such a big thing happening suddenly? But he could only get over it by himself.
As long as you can get out of it, your future should not be bad. If you can't get out of it, then that's all that can happen.
After a simple wash, Zhao Lei went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. Yuan Jie, who came out of the bathroom downstairs, was really surprised to find that it was not Zhao Lei who cooked.
When his family was still in the compound, cooking and other housework were done by the nanny arranged by the superiors. Even if the nanny was not there, there were grandmother, aunt and other women in the family who did the work. In any case, it was not the men in the family who did the work.
Not only is this the case with his family, many families in the compound are like this. He saw it and heard from his childhood friends that their families are also like this.
But here, he was really surprised to find that Zhao Lei was actually cooking for himself.
Zhao Lei heard a noise coming from behind. He didn't need to turn around to know it was Yuan Jie. "Do you want fried dumplings or soup dumplings?"
I can still eat fried dumplings at this time. "Is it too late?"
Zhao Lei hummed, "How can it be too late?"
"Don't worry." Zhao Lei quickly put the dumplings into the pot and started frying them. The movement of wrapping the dumplings with his hands was very clumsy.
Ping'an, who had just finished taking a bath, also went to the kitchen and started to work. Wang Juan and her daughter, who were taking a bath upstairs, finished their bath and went downstairs to play games in the living room. In short, they did not come to the kitchen to work.
Yuan Jie listened to the noise in the living room and looked at Zhao Lei and his son busy in the kitchen. He thought it was a special situation and maybe the dumplings they made were delicious.
Just as he thought, the dumplings made by Zhao Lei were really delicious.
"Eat." After the whole family sat down, Zhao Lei told Yuan Jie not to be polite, "You will eat at my house more often in the future."
