Chapter 108 Xiaorong has taken the initiative
Ye Muqi had not thought much about this issue before, as he felt that he had just started dating not long ago. Now, after hearing what Yang Liwen said, he began to think about it seriously.
In fact, she doesn't reject it...
But she thinks this is a natural thing. If her boyfriend proposed it, she would definitely agree. After all, they are a married couple, so whatever they do is legal!
But Rong Jingchen never mentioned it. As a girl, it would be inappropriate for her to bring up this matter on her own initiative, right?
After all, this is the 1980s, not the open world.
Ye Muqi thought about it and realized that she and Rong Jingchen had been getting along pretty well recently. They even kissed and hugged each other, but Rong Jingchen never mentioned anything more in-depth.
As she was thinking, she suddenly recalled the scene where the original owner tricked Rong Jingchen into getting the marriage certificate...
Could it be that she was frightened by the original owner at that time, causing her boyfriend to not fully recover until now, so she didn't mention it?
The more Ye Muqi thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was quite high.
"Actually... Jingchen is quite a straight man. His mind is probably on the army. Plus, he might have something to do in the army these days, so he has to get up early and do a lot of training." Ye Muqi definitely couldn't tell Yang Liwen that reason.
Doesn't she have any respect?
"Hiss——" Yang Liwen is an experienced person. She has seen how much Rong Jingchen cares about Ye Muqi. There is nothing wrong with his body. How could a grown man who lives with his wife every day not have such thoughts?
As for the troops...
I haven't heard Lao Yu mention any special missions recently.
"I don't think it's possible." Yang Liwen shook her head and asked, "Qiqi, how are you and Xiaorong getting along recently? Do you mind telling me about it?"
As an experienced person, Yang Liwen felt that there might be some misunderstanding.
She could feel that Rong Jingchen and Ye Muqi had a pretty good relationship and both of them had each other in their hearts, so Yang Liwen also wanted to help.
"We... are fine. We sleep together, and he doesn't seem to have any thoughts." Ye Muqi thought for a while, "But Rong Jingchen has been acting strange recently. He takes advantage of his good health and takes a cold shower every morning. These past two nights, he came out of the shower and said he was hot. He didn't even wear a shirt. Is he really that hot?"
Although Ye Muqi knew that Rong Jingchen was in good health, he couldn't stand working on his body like this every day, right?
“…”
Yang Liwen fell silent after listening to this. She glanced at Ye Muqi and for a moment didn't know what to say.
"One night before, he said he couldn't sleep, so I asked him to go out and watch TV so as not to disturb my sleep, but he got angry for some reason." Ye Muqi added, "... maybe he wanted me to watch TV with him, but I still have to go to work in the morning!"
How can I stay up late with my boyfriend?
Speaking of her relationship with Rong Jingchen, Ye Muqi seemed to have found someone she could confide in, and it was more like she was complaining about her boyfriend in front of her best friend.
"..." Yang Liwen's eyes became a little complicated when she looked at Ye Muqi.
Even so, Ye Muqi still has the nerve to call Rong Jingchen a straight man?
Relatively speaking, Yang Liwen thinks Ye Muqi is more straightforward...
"Xiao Rong, actually, has been quite proactive." After a long while, Yang Liwen finally spoke again and gave a subtle reminder.
"Really?" Ye Muqi was shocked.
I don't feel anything at all!
"......" Yang Liwen was completely speechless. Just by listening to what Ye Muqi said, she could feel Rong Jingchen's initiative, but Ye Muqi didn't notice anything at all?
Now, she felt a little sympathetic towards Rong Jingchen. It was indeed not easy.
There was no way to beat around the bush when talking to Ye Muqi, so she had to say it directly. Yang Liwen was thinking about going back to talk to Yu Jianguo and letting Yu Jianguo talk to Rong Jingchen. Wouldn't it be better to tell Ye Muqi directly?
As they were talking, the car arrived at the entrance of the alley and the two of them started working.
"Should we tear the cabbage into small pieces with our hands? Why not just cut it with a knife?" Yang Liwen asked, not quite understanding, while tearing the cabbage for lunch.
Tearing with hands is more troublesome than cutting with a knife, and the speed is also much slower.
"You can also cut it with a knife, but each cabbage leaf is tightly packed together and has grooves. When you use your hands to separate the leaves that are connected together, you can tear them into small pieces at the same time, which is more convenient. If you cut it with a knife, some of them may be connected together and not separated." Ye Muqi explained.
She walked over and quickly cut a head of cabbage into small pieces in her hands, no slower than cutting with a knife.
"Oh~" Yang Liwen was watching from the side with surprise in her eyes. Now she understood that the problem was with her.
"Today's dish was cooked yesterday. Come over and try to stir-fry it. I'll be by your side and will be able to find out any problems immediately." After preparing the vegetables, Ye Muqi said to Yang Liwen.
It takes time to cook pickled vegetables, and Ye Muqi has already prepared the stew. Stir-frying vegetables is faster and relatively easier. Ye Muqi thought that Yang Liwen already knew how to cook and had learned it quite well, so he thought of letting her try.
You can’t just watch and listen when learning cooking. If you don’t try it yourself, you will never learn it.
"Okay." Yang Liwen did not refuse. She had seen Ye Muqi cook and heard him explain the dish before. With Ye Muqi beside her, she also wanted to give it a try.
Yang Liwen remembered all the steps clearly, and followed Ye Muqi's steps yesterday. The things she had to pay attention to were the seasonings and the heat.
The cooking was done very quickly. Ye Muqi watched the whole process and did not say anything to correct anything.
Ye Muqi picked up a pair of chopsticks and tasted the food after Yang Liwen finished cooking.
"It tastes delicious. It looks like it won't be long before you can help me cook lunch." Ye Muqi gave Yang Liwen a thumbs up without hesitation. He was quite happy thinking about cooking together at noon.
Yang Liwen was very happy to receive the recognition and became more proactive in her work.
…
There were still many workers eating outside the store at noon. Ye Muqi walked from inside the store to outside, and after standing for a while, he felt a little cold.
The weather is not particularly cold now, but when winter comes, if workers still have to sit outside to eat in the cold wind, not to mention whether they will feel cold, the food will also get cold easily.
The store must expand!
There is a small shop next to the breakfast shop. The store is much larger than Cai Dongmei’s breakfast shop. There is a transfer note posted on the wall outside. The note is very new and looks like it was just posted not long ago.
"Grandma, the current store is too small. I saw the convenience store next door is being sold. Why don't we buy it?" Ye Muqi ran back and said to Cai Dongmei.
