Chapter 6 What About You?



When Zhong Meixian saw her looking towards the courtyard wall, she remembered that she had wanted to marry her grandson before, so she coughed twice and said, "Ahem, since you are marrying Yan Li, you should live a good life and stop thinking about those trivial things."

Wen Tang didn't react and just nodded.

Seeing that she was still honest, Zhong Meixian felt relieved.

It’s okay to be lazy for now, but once her son leaves, she will discipline him well and he will get the hang of it.

Wen Tang soon saw her best friend. The two of them had a tacit understanding for many years. They only needed to look at each other and knew that the other had slept well, so they didn't say much.

After all, according to the characters in the book, they have a grudge against each other and are rivals.

Lin Jingshen led people to the kitchen to heat up the food.

Because the man Gu Jinfeng married lived next door, she had been cooking at Gu's house over the years to take care of her mother, and the two families ate together.

If it weren’t for yesterday’s banquet, the Lin family’s kitchen would not be open because there were too many people and the food couldn’t be heated.

So this time Lin Jingshen took Chi Yue to the Gu family's kitchen.

In the kitchen, Gu Yanli had just heated up the rice and was walking out with it. When he saw Lin Jingshen and his wife, he immediately stepped aside.

Lin Jingshen wanted to greet him, but he didn't have time.

Because Gu Yanli had already looked up and asked Wen Tang, "Where do you want to eat?"

"I'm fine with anything," Wen Tang replied obediently and politely.

Gu Yanli said, "Then let's eat in the main hall!"

When Gu Yanli passed by Zhong Meixian with the bowl in his hand, she couldn't stand still anymore and asked, "Where did you get the eggs?"

In Zhong Meixian's opinion, white flour buns are not good to eat, and we have to make an egg?

But in Gu Yanli's opinion, if he didn't eat the egg, he would be so angry that he would die tonight.

Only after he is nourished can he stop being irritable.

"The place where you put the eggs is not a secret place," Gu Yanli replied directly.

Zhong Meixian stomped her feet in anger again.

In the end, I just adopted the attitude of out of sight, out of mind, and went to sit at the gate of the yard.

I'm just waiting for my daughter to come back so that I can complain to her about this terrible daughter-in-law.

When her daughter came back, she found that something even worse was happening. Her daughter-in-law was not only lazy, but also greedy. She only ate the egg and didn't even eat the white flour bun.

Lin Jingshen was a bit dull and didn't have as many thoughts as his uncle. He was honest and just heated up the rice left for his wife. He didn't mention putting an egg under the sieve.

Chi Yue ate half a steamed bun, some porridge, and some vegetables.

After Wen Tang ate the eggs and vegetables and drank some porridge, he felt full. He had no appetite to eat the steamed buns, so Gu Yanli brought the steamed buns back.

Zhong Meixian, who was sitting at the gate of the yard waiting for her daughter, saw the big white steamed bun in the bowl at a glance.

She immediately couldn't sit still, "Good steamed buns don't taste good anymore?"

Before she could say anything else, she saw her dark-faced son pick up the steamed bun and start biting it. He finished half of the bun in just a few steps and went straight to the kitchen to finish it all.

In the kitchen, Chi Yue ate later and was still eating.

Gu Yanli took the bowl to the well, drew some water, and started washing the dishes.

Wen Tang ran over excitedly, squatted there, holding his chin with his hands, his eyes smiling, his long eyelashes blinking as he asked Gu Yanli, "Brother, can I wash the dishes?"

Gu Yanli's grip on the bowl tightened, and he washed the dishes faster, his voice becoming deeper. "No, I'll be done soon."

Wen Tang's eyes continued to blink, "Brother, you are such a nice person."

“Crack!”

A crisp sound was heard, and Gu Yanli and Wen Tang both looked at the cracked bowl and fell silent.

Wen Tang: Men are so strong, they can break a bowl with their bare hands. If they could break me...

The train in his mind was running too fast, and Wen Tang was aware of blushing.

Gu Yanli stood up silently, then walked to the courtyard wall and looked outside. There was no one there.

"Swish," he threw the cracked porcelain bowl away.

He said he was too anxious!

It was really too annoying, so annoying that he wanted to go crazy.

He had to pull out the bed in the afternoon, and by dark, the new bed had to be brought back.

Then come back and continue washing dishes.

This time the bowl didn't break again.

Because Wen Tang honestly stopped calling him brother.

She was not familiar with the place. After Gu Yanli washed the dishes and went to the kitchen, she followed him.

Then I saw Chi Yue preparing to wash the dishes.

Lin Jingshen said, "Xiaoyue, I'll boil some hot water for you to wash the dishes. It's a bit cold."

In fact, for Chi Yue, it was not a problem of cold weather, but that she had difficulty cleaning the stove in the countryside.

Just at this time Wen Tang came.

Wen Tang saw her predicament at once, crossed his arms, and began to mock her, "Oh, the man you married isn't that great either. This is your first time eating at his house, and you still have to wash the dishes?"

When Gu Yanli heard Wen Tang's words, his expression did not change, but his back suddenly straightened even more. Even when he put down the bowl, his waist was stretched straight.

Lin Jingshen raised his eyes and saw his uncle put down the bowl. He was not really stupid, but dumb. What else did he not understand? He stood up quickly and said quickly, "Xiaoyue, you go sit outside too, I'll wash it."

Chi Yue and Wen Tang looked at each other, and both saw satisfaction in each other's eyes.

Chi Yue also replied to Wen Tang, "You talk as if you are the only one who will get married."

"Tsk," Wen Tang tsk-tsk, turned around and followed Gu Yanli out of the kitchen.

Wen Tang followed behind Gu Yanli and asked, "How many days of your wedding leave are there?"

"Ten days!"

"Oh, that's quite a long time!"

Wen Tang thought, no wonder there was a chance to save the original heroine.

Gu Yanli was thinking, "You..."

He wanted to ask whether Wen Tang was willing to follow him to join the army.

He is the battalion commander and can bring his family with him.

If you follow the army, life may become a bit boring.

There are people from all over the world living in the family compound, and Wen Tang may not be able to chat with them. Life will definitely be boring. Besides, if she gets pregnant in the future and he gets busy, there will be no one to take care of her.

So Gu Yanli didn't know whether he should mention it or not.

In their army, many family members were unwilling to follow their husbands because they were bored and had no one to know, so Gu Yanli didn't know whether Wen Tang was willing.

If she didn't want to, would Wen Tang be angry if he mentioned it?

He hesitated for a moment, then heard her mother yelling at the gate, "Oh, it's already noon?"

"I thought it was just eight or nine o'clock. Are you all back for dinner already?"

Gu Yanli turned around and saw that his elder sister, his father, and his brother-in-law, some carrying hoes and some carrying shovels, came back together.

Obviously he came back for lunch.

Gu Jinfeng was the first to arrive at the door, carrying a shovel. She put it down and said, "What do you mean it's eight or nine o'clock? I've been working for half a day."

"Oh, not eight or nine o'clock? Some people have just woken up then," Zhong Meixian said the last sentence not very loudly, but made sure that Wen Tang, who was standing in the yard, could hear it.

Chi Yue, who came out of the kitchen, also heard it.

Wen Tang raised his chin towards Chi Yue and said, "I'm talking about you!"

Zhong Meixian “…”
