Prepare the ingredients and soak the medicinal herbs.
Su Yueya moved very quickly, and before long, the mutton soup was bubbling in the pot.
Lu Zhengjun, who had just finished catching up on her sleep, went downstairs and heard noises coming from the kitchen.
"Crescent moon?"
"Honey, you're awake! Are you feeling any better now?"
Lu Zhengjun answered her while stretching her shoulders and neck.
"Much better."
Seeing the state of the kitchen, with most of the ingredients already prepared and something still cooking on the stove, Lu Zhengjun felt a little embarrassed.
The first day of my marriage.
The wife was busy preparing lunch in the kitchen, while the husband was fast asleep.
That's so wrong!
"Crescent Moon, what are you doing? Let me help you."
Lu Zhengjun offered to help.
He may not be as skilled as Su Yueya, but he can still help out.
"Hmm... then you can help me crack the walnuts."
Su Yueya did not refuse.
The newlyweds were huddled together in the kitchen preparing lunch—what a warm and happy scene! Why would she refuse?
Besides, she had already done most of the work, so there weren't many places where Lu Zhengjun could be of any use.
"Pinching walnuts?"
Lu Zhengjun thought Su Yueya was fooling him.
"I am genuinely willing to help. Although I have never worked in the kitchen, I know the basics of chopping and cooking vegetables."
"But I need to use walnuts later. If you don't crack them, I'll have to crack them myself."
Lu Zhengjun remained silent, looking at Su Yueya with suspicion.
He had eaten walnuts, but he had never considered them a "dish".
Su Yueya noticed his confusion and explained with a smile.
"Look, I've already washed and chopped the chives. I went to the market today and saw that these chives were quite fresh. The lady there recommended them to me, saying that you can stir-fry chives with walnuts, so I thought I'd buy them and give it a try."
"Oh." Lu Zhengjun believed her now and started cracking walnuts.
Hearing the gurgling sound, he casually asked a question.
"What kind of soup is this?"
"Lamb soup."
Su Yueya spoke with conviction, "Of course we added mutton; she wasn't wrong."
Lu Zhengjun didn't even see what was stewing in the pot. He just listened to whatever Su Yueya said and obediently and diligently cracked walnuts on the side.
The couple worked together and quickly prepared lunch.
"Honey, come on, have a bowl of soup first."
Su Yueya served the dish and placed it in front of Lu Zhengjun.
When she ladled the soup into a large bowl in the kitchen, she only kept the mutton and basic seasonings, omitting all the medicinal herbs, for fear that Lu Zhengjun would notice something amiss.
So when you look at the mutton soup on the dinner table now, it really is just ordinary mutton soup.
"good."
Lu Zhengjun thought that it was only right to reciprocate, so he also had to serve his wife a bowl.
Su Yueya initially thought he wanted a second bowl, but seeing him take another bowl, she guessed it was for her.
"Honey, I don't want to drink."
"Why?"
Lu Zhengjun was puzzled.
He specially prepared mutton soup, but his wife didn't drink it herself; she only gave it to him.
"We're not short of money at home. You can eat and drink whatever you want. Don't worry about me."
Lu Zhengjun was overthinking it. She thought that Liu Dekai and his mother had mistreated Su Yueya in the past, only giving them and their son the good food, and not giving Su Yueya any, which had led to her developing this kind of personality.
He felt sorry for him!
"No, that's not it. I... I just don't have the habit of drinking soup. You drink it, I specially made it for you," Su Yueya said guiltily.
This is indeed a tonic soup specially made for Lu Zhengjun.
"Okay, if you don't like it, then don't drink it."
Lu Zhengjun didn't think much of it. Since Su Yueya said she didn't have this habit, he wouldn't force her.
Moreover, his wife said that this soup was specially made for him, and to show his appreciation, he drank two more bowls.
Seeing him drink three bowls in a row, Su Yueya couldn't help but look forward to the results.
After finishing the meal, Lu Zhengjun said she wanted to wash the dishes.
"No need, you go and rest. I can finish these chores quickly." Su Yueya pushed him out of the kitchen.
"no."
Lu Zhengjun was very insistent.
“I’m usually in the army, and you do all the housework. Today is my day off, so I can’t just sit around doing nothing.” As he spoke, Lu Zhengjun started rolling up his sleeves.
Lu Zhengjun is resting at home today, and she is dressed casually.
She wore a white shirt and casual pants, a very simple outfit.
However, thanks to her good figure and height, she is still very pleasing to the eye.
"Honey, let me help you."
Su Yueya didn't hesitate. Since Lu Zhengjun said he wanted to wash the dishes, she would let him do it. She would just tidy up the stove and other things. The two of them would work faster.
"good."
Lu Zhengjun stretched out his arm and obediently let Su Yueya help him roll up his sleeves.
He trains regularly, so his skin is dark.
Su Yueya, however, was exceptionally fair-skinned.
Her slender fingers moved along his arm, unbuttoning it and then neatly rolling up his cuffs.
A contrast between black and white, solid and soft.
Lu Zhengjun glanced at it only once before looking away.
Su Yueya, however, noticed that Lu Zhengjun's arms had particularly beautiful lines after she rolled up her sleeves.
The muscle lines are smooth, without an ounce of excess fat.
He's trained so well, his body fat is so low, and the blue veins meander upwards, you can almost feel the power hidden in his arms just by looking at them.
Tsk tsk...
How could it not work?
Su Yueya had a small regret.
But it's okay, she made a soup to invigorate the kidneys and boost virility. If she persists, it should improve things a little!
"Crescent Moon, I still have two days of vacation left. Where do you want to go?"
