Wanying:
I haven’t been in touch for a long time, and you are always in my thoughts. It’s been several months since we last met. I wonder if you are doing well?
I have returned to the military region safely for many days, but due to the earthquake, Huairen is in ruins and letters are completely unavailable.
I think when you receive this letter, Huairen has already got on the right track.
I wonder if Grandpa and Auntie will recover. I'm doing fine in the army.
There's one more thing I can't help but share with you. Some time ago, the military held an awards ceremony, and I received a first-class collective merit and a second-class individual merit. I feel like you deserve half of this honor.
By the way, let me tell you an interesting thing.
............
Do you have any happy things to share with me?
He stood up and showed his support.
Jiang Yufeng."
The letter was very long, mostly talking about some interesting things in the army, such as a new recruit who forgot to wear pants during an emergency assembly in the middle of the night, or an old soldier's wife who came to visit and was onlookers, etc.
Although the word "love" was not mentioned in the entire letter, nor was there any mention of liking or missing, Du Wanying could still deeply feel the shyness of the big boy when he wrote the letter between the lines.
Du Wanying smiled sweetly, folded the letter and hid it under her pillow, then walked towards the kitchen.
Now that there are guests at home and her future sister-in-law has arrived, how can she not cook a few dishes herself?
"Hey, little sister, have you finished reading your love letter?" Tang Xiao said jokingly.
Du Wanying blushed like a big apple, "Sister-in-law, please stop teasing me. We're just friends."
"Okay, okay, we're friends."
After Tang Xiao finished speaking, he stopped teasing Du Wanying and instead pulled Bai Yuer to wash the ingredients.
Bai Yuer saw Tang Xiao pulling her arm and quickly said, "What's wrong, sister-in-law? I'm preparing to cook so that everyone can taste my cooking skills."
"Second sister-in-law, I'll prepare whatever ingredients you need for you."
When Bai Yuer heard Du Wanying call her second sister-in-law, her face turned red unnaturally.
"I...I'm going to make braised fish. Don't worry about me, little sister. I can clean the fish myself."
Bai Yuer didn't want to leave a bad impression on her future in-laws. Although she was the only child in the family, her biggest hobby was cooking.
So small things like killing fish are a piece of cake for her.
Seeing Bai Yuer looking very confident, Du Wanying didn't say anything else, but turned around to wash the ingredients she needed for cooking.
"Little sister, just tell me what you want to cook and I'll prepare it." Tang Xiao said, then looked at Bai Yu'er, "You too, little sister. You and little sister just focus on cooking and leave the rest to me."
Bai Yuer did not refuse Tang Xiao's kindness and nodded in agreement.
With the help of her sister-in-law, Du Wanying cooked very smoothly. While Bai Yu'er was still carving the fish, Du Wanying had already finished a dish.
This made Tang Xiao, who was preparing the ingredients, very busy. Although she had eaten meals cooked by her younger sister before, she had never prepared food for her.
At this moment, Tang Xiao regretted it. Wouldn't it be better for her to just sit back and eat the food that was already prepared? Why did she take the initiative to come and help her younger sister prepare the ingredients?
As soon as Du Wanying served the dishes, she looked at her sister-in-law, only to see that she was frowning and it was obvious that she regretted volunteering to help her prepare the ingredients.
Du Wanying couldn't help laughing when she saw this. "Sister-in-law, please go buy me some soy sauce. I think we don't have much at home."
"Okay, okay, little sister, wait for me, I'll go now." At this moment, Tang Xiao felt that her little sister was like an angel, saving her from dire straits.
Tang Xiao: That’s great, that’s great, I’m finally free. I will never do this job again.
Tang Xiao agreed and quickly walked out of the kitchen, fearing that her younger sister would ask her to prepare something again and she would not be able to leave.
Bai Yu'er, who was carving fish at the side, was confused by her sister-in-law's reaction. She turned her head to look at Du Wanying: "Little sister, what happened to sister-in-law? Why did she walk so fast?"
Du Wanying tried hard to suppress her laughter and said seriously, "Maybe you're tired. Let's continue."
Bai Yuer didn't bother about it anymore and continued to cut her fish.
It was not until half a year later, when Bai Yuer married into the Du family, that she found out why her sister-in-law had fled, but it was too late for her to regret.
I could only silently envy Tang Xiao who was chatting leisurely with his mother.
After Tang Xiao left, Du Wanying had to prepare the ingredients by herself. After working for more than half an hour, her sister-in-law came back with the soy sauce bottle.
"Little sister, I forgot to take the soy sauce bottle when I went out. I borrowed someone else's bottle. Hurry and bring our soy sauce bottle over."
"Hey, here I come." Du Wanying quickly handed over the soy sauce bottle beside her.
Du Wanying thought to herself: Why did my sister-in-law come back so soon? Maybe she had a good rest and wanted to challenge her cooking speed again.
Tang Xiao took the soy sauce bottle from Du Wanying and started pouring soy sauce.
"Little sister, I'm done. Take the soy sauce over. I'll go return the bottle to the owner."
After Tang Xiao finished speaking, he ran away, leaving Du Wanying and Bai Yuer stunned.
Du Wanying: No wonder my sister-in-law came back so early. It turns out she was sneaking away under the pretext of returning the bottle.
Bai Yuer was very curious when she thought of her sister-in-law's two abnormal behaviors. Wanying was in the kitchen with her, but she didn't understand what was going on with her sister-in-law, and Wanying certainly didn't know either.
Thinking of this, Bai Yuer could only suppress the doubts in her heart and continue to busy herself with her braised fish.
Tang Xiao didn't come in until Du Wanying had finished cooking all the dishes.
"Is the meal ready, little sister? If not, I'll help you."
Tang Xiao stared at Du Wanying while speaking. She had calculated the time on the way back and thought that her younger sister should have prepared the meal by now.
"It's ready. We'll be waiting for you to come back and have dinner." Du Wanying said with a smile.
Sure enough, Tang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what her sister-in-law said, "Then you all take a rest for a while, I'll go serve the meal."
After my sister-in-law brought the food to the table, everyone sat down in a row.
"Xiaoxiao, please sit down too." Zhao Fangling watched Tang Xiao sit down before she continued, "Today is Yu'er's first time coming to our house, and I have something to say."
"Okay." Du Wanying took the lead in applauding after she finished speaking. Zhao Fangling almost couldn't help laughing when she saw her daughter's actions. She tried hard to hold back her laughter and glared at Du Wanying fiercely, and then she suppressed it.
"Yu'er, I'm going to make you a promise in front of Lao Er. If Lao Er ever bullies you in the future, just tell me and I'll beat him up."
Zhang Fangling glared at Du Yuanxiu as she spoke, her expression so fierce that Du Xiuyuan trembled with fear. He quickly assured her, "Mom, Yu'er will be my wife from now on. There's no such thing as beating your wife in our family. I will definitely treat her well, so don't worry."
