Shen Man pursed her lips, not knowing how to answer this for a moment.
Her biological father died when she was very young, and her memory of him was already very vague. She only vaguely remembered that every time he came home, he would take her to the market, buy milk candies, and coax her in a low voice, calling her a good baby.
Later, he passed away, and a few years later, my mother remarried. Gradually, her memory of him became more and more vague.
But the only thing she was clear about was that he was very good to her and her mother.
Gao Fenglan noticed that Shen Man's mood was getting low, and knew that she was thinking of Old Shen. She couldn't help but sighed, stepped forward and winked at Gu Changhai.
"Qinglin is cooking in the kitchen, go and help."
Gu Changhai reacted and realized that what he said reminded Shen Man of the past. He nodded, but his eyes stayed on Shen Man for a moment.
"Go help Qinglin."
Shen Man was stunned for a moment, then quickly responded, "Mom and Dad, let's go, your art is pretty good."
As a young person, she didn't feel comfortable sitting down and letting the elders cook for her on her first day at the family's home.
Gao Fenglan pulled Shen Man and smiled, "It's okay. They have always been the father and son who cook in this family. When you go back to the army, as long as Qinglin is at home, you can let him cook. Don't get used to him."
Gu Changhai's expression eased a little, and he nodded, "Yes, listen to your mother. You and your mother are at home, and you have always been the one cooking for this family."
"Qinglin has been learning to cook since he was a child, so his cooking skills are pretty good."
So Shen Man had no choice but to sit down and eat cakes and chat with Gao Fenglan while waiting for the father and son in the kitchen to prepare the meal.
Not long after, the aroma of food wafted from the kitchen.
Soon, the family of four sat down to eat. At the table, Gao Fenglan kept picking up food for Shen Man, "Man Man, try this braised pork. This is your father's special dish."
"Here's Qinglin's best dish, Shredded Pork with Fish Flavor."
Shen Man looked at the bowl full of dishes, picked up a piece of meat for Gao Fenglan, and smiled obediently, "Mom, you eat, don't just focus on picking dishes for me."
Gao Fenglan smiled and put the piece of meat into her mouth. "Well, today's meal is delicious, especially this piece of meat."
"By the way, have you seen the wedding room that 놖 and your father prepared for you two?"
"Although you don't live there now, it is your wedding house after all. This time you come back, it's a good opportunity to take a look. If there's anything that doesn't fit, just tell your dad."
"We'll help you two change it."
"It will be convenient for you to live here when you come back."
"Of course, if you don't want to live there, there are rooms at home."
Shen Man glanced at Gu Qinglin.
Gu Qinglin noticed her gaze, put down his chopsticks, and shook his head at Gao Fenglan, "Mom, everything is fine, no need to change it."
After dinner, Gu Qinglin was still responsible for washing the dishes.
In the evening, Shen Man suddenly received a big red envelope from Gu Changhai, with Gao Fenglan present.
"Manman, you and Qinglin got married a few days ago. You and your mother didn't attend because of work. This red envelope is for you alone. Take it."
Even if you don't touch it, you can tell there is a lot of money inside just by looking at the thickness of the red envelope.
"Thank you, Mom and Dad." Shen Man smiled and politely stretched out her hands to take the red envelope.
At the beginning, when she married Gu Qinglin, her parents-in-law had actually sent her more than a thousand yuan. Judging from the thickness of this red envelope, it is estimated that there are several hundred yuan in it.
After washing up and returning to the house.
Shen Man took out the red envelope, waved it in front of Gu Qinglin, and lay in his arms, "My parents gave it to you. They stuffed it into your pocket while you were washing the dishes."
Gu Qinglin lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "I told you before that your parents will like you very much, so don't be nervous."
"You still don't believe it, but now you should believe it."
Shen Man gently hit the man's chest and glared at him, "What nonsense are you talking about? When did you get nervous?"
"I was just asking about the situation before."
Whose new bride isn’t nervous on her first day at home? She had never been to a man’s house before she got married, so she was naturally nervous, but only a little bit.
Gu Qinglin grabbed her by the waist, turned over and pressed her under him. He looked at her fluttering face and raised his eyebrows. "Well, don't be nervous. You must have seen it wrong."
"Let's continue with what we did today."
After saying that, he lowered his head and was about to kiss him, but the strong breath surrounded Shen Man tightly. She stretched out her body to block his chest, then pulled the quilt to wrap herself tightly, "No, the red envelope has not been opened yet."
For men, money is not important.
Look at the woman's serious face and the obvious rejection.
It was the first time that Gu Qinglin knew that his wife was a little obsessed with money. For a moment, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He had to hold her in his arms and look down at her.
"Tear it down."
After opening the red envelope, it was his turn to open his "red envelope".
Shen Man found a comfortable position in his arms, then took out a red envelope from the side and opened it.
There are big groups of people inside.
She counted them one by one, from ten, more than ten, a hundred... until she reached more than a hundred.
The more she counted, the more shocked Shen Man was. She really didn't expect that the red envelope was so big.
Gu Qinglin was not surprised. His parents only had him as their son, and Shen Man was Uncle Shen's only biological daughter, so it was certain that they would be generous.
Shen Man stretched out her hand and poked his waist, saying righteously, "What your parents gave you is yours alone. You should keep it and put it in your piggy bank."
"Do you have any opinion?"
Gu Qinglin suddenly had a teasing thought, "If you have an opinion, would you give half of the red envelope?"
Shen Man stuffed the thick bundle of reunion money into the red envelope, shook it in front of Gu Qinglin, and raised her voice slightly, "Your opinions are useless, it all belongs to you anyway."
"Besides, we are already married, and you are my wife, what else do you want?"
Gu Qinglin turned over again and pressed the person tightly under him, their hot breaths entangled with each other, "I want you..."
…
I've been a vegetarian for almost ten days. I finally got to eat meat tonight, but I can't end it easily.
As a result, Shen Man was completely exhausted and slept all morning the next day. It was almost noon when Gu Qinglin came over and asked her to have lunch.
At this time, Gu Changhai and Gao Fenglan had already gone to work, leaving only the two of them at home.
Shen Man heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the news. Fortunately, she didn't lose face or bring disgrace to her family. Otherwise, she would never let this wolf-like man go easily.
"Lunch is ready. You can eat it right after you wash up."
