Chapter 45 Am I still a stinky man?
The next morning, Rong Jingchen knocked on the door as usual and called Ye Muqi to get up.
Ye Muqi stepped on the ground with a look of surprise in his eyes. His feet really didn't hurt that much anymore, and the redness and swelling on his ankles had also subsided a lot.
"Last night's suffering was not in vain." Ye Muqi was not a person who held grudges. He thought that everything would be fine after a good sleep. He changed his clothes happily and walked out of the room.
She ran into Rong Jingchen who had just finished washing up. Thinking about how she had been scolding Rong Jingchen during the foot massage last night, she couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
Today her ankle told her that Rong Jingchen did not lie to her last night, and that only by massaging it properly could she get better as soon as possible!
"Is your foot okay?" Rong Jingchen looked down at her ankle and asked.
"Well... I feel much better." Ye Muqi nodded slightly, "Thank you."
"Am I still a stinky man?"
"!!!"
You really hold a grudge!
Ye Muqi got up quite early today, so he stewed the side dishes and kneaded some dough.
The breakfast shop has been open for several days, but Rong Jingchen has never eaten there. Ye Muqi plans to give Rong Jingchen a hearty breakfast today.
Yes, that’s right. It’s not because she felt guilty for scolding Rong Jingchen last night!
"If you want to buy furniture tomorrow, can you wait until I get to the store? We only sell breakfast in the store, so it won't take long." Ye Muqi said.
After all, making money and buying furniture are not in conflict.
Rong Jingchen listened without even a hint of surprise in his eyes. After realizing that Ye Muqi only wanted to make money, Rong Jingchen was even used to it.
"good."
Come to think of it, she isn't usually poor, right?
Why are you suddenly so keen on making money...
After breakfast, Rong Jingchen went to wash the dishes, Ye Muqi packed up the prepared side dishes, and the two went out together.
The car was still waiting downstairs, but the person standing next to the car was no longer Lin Zihua from yesterday, but an acquaintance, the other person who went to the train station to pick them up that night, Yin Daquan.
Yin Daquan was very happy at the moment. He had managed to get this job with great difficulty. He was scolded by Lin Zihua before coming here, but this did not affect Yin Daquan's good mood.
I've been craving for the sumptuous breakfast ever since I heard Lin Zihua talk about it yesterday. If I send Ye Muqi to the city, I'll have the chance to eat it. There are many people in the army who want to go!
"Hello, Captain!" Looking at Rong Jingchen and Ye Muqi coming out from the stairs, Yin Daquan first gave Rong Jingchen a very standard military salute.
Ye Muqi walked beside Rong Jingchen, still limping a little, but much better than yesterday. At least going down the stairs was not so awkward, and he was much faster.
The most important thing was that her hands felt lighter, as Rong Jingchen helped her carry the packed things.
"Wow~ Sister-in-law, you look so beautiful today, and you are getting more and more beautiful!" Yin Daquan immediately complimented Ye Muqi when he turned to her. It was not perfunctory but came completely from the heart.
Ye Muqi was wearing a white dress today, and she looked like a fairy standing there.
Rong Jingchen was listening nearby and glanced at Yin Daquan, whose mouth was smeared with honey. Why had he never seen him talk so well before?
"Drive safely." Rong Jingchen sounded like a warning, sounding scary.
"Uh... yes, yes, yes!" Yin Daquan didn't dare to look anymore and was about to take the things from Rong Jingchen's hand.
Rong Jingchen didn't give it to him. He sent Ye Muqi to the car and placed all the packed side dishes on the back seat.
Only after the car drove out did Rong Jingchen walk towards the troops.
…
In the car, Yin Daquan didn't have to face Rong Jingchen, so he breathed a sigh of relief. Smelling the pervasive fragrance in the car, Yin Daquan couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
This smell is much more fragrant than the one I smelled on Lin Zihua yesterday!
Knowing that he was coming to pick up Ye Muqi, he didn't even rush to grab breakfast in the army cafeteria. He just waited to drop Ye Muqi off and then eat a bowl of rich noodles made by his sister-in-law.
Although Lin Zihua said yesterday that he couldn't eat for free at his sister-in-law's, he still had to pay even if his sister-in-law asked for money.
It’s just a bowl of noodles with so much meat, and it’s not expensive. I don’t eat it every day, so I can still afford it for one meal. I’ll just consider it as a way to show my support to my sister-in-law!
"Sister-in-law, when we get to the store later, can you give me a big bowl?" Yin Daquan asked Ye Muqi with a flattering smile.
Before he finished speaking, Yin Daquan's stomach started to growl.
Yin Daquan's face turned red all of a sudden. It was really not his fault, it was because the side dishes made by Ye Muqi were so delicious.
"Okay." Ye Muqi agreed with a smile, thinking that the soldiers in Rong Jingchen's army were quite honest.
When they got to the store, Ye Muqi found a big bowl, put some more noodles in it, and covered it with a lot of side dishes, still with all kinds of side dishes, and an egg.
Yin Daquan's bowl alone is as good as the two bowls sold in the store.
Yin Daquan finally ate the noodles that had been simmered for a long time. There was almost half a bowl of meat, which made Yin Daquan's eyes red.
He thought his brother was exaggerating, this ingredient is really solid!
Yin Daquan finished this big bowl of noodles, even drinking the soup, leaving nothing behind.
He wiped the corner of his mouth and took money out of his pocket.
Ye Muqi originally didn't intend to accept it, but thinking that Rong Jingchen gave her all of Lin Zihua's money last night, she took 80 cents, the normal price for a bowl of noodles with side dishes.
"Thank you, sister-in-law, your cooking skills are really great. I'll come back to eat next time!" Yin Daquan gave a piece, smiled and greeted Ye Muqi before leaving.
There are still a lot of people in the breakfast shop. In addition to noodles, the wontons made by grandma are also selling very well.
After the morning rush hour is over, Ye Muqi and grandma can also take a break.
"Grandma Cai, I have to leave early tomorrow. After the morning rush hour, you will probably be the only one looking after the store." Ye Muqi took this opportunity to tell Cai Dongmei about his schedule for tomorrow.
"Or...how about I prepare less tomorrow, sell out early and rest?" Ye Muqi thought for a moment and added, a little worried that Cai Dongmei's body wouldn't be able to handle it.
Cai Dongmei has been taking it easy these days. She only has to make wontons and buns and collect dishes in the store. Most of the hard work is done by Ye Muqi. She eats much better and looks better than at the beginning.
"Okay, go ahead and do whatever you want, I can take care of it by myself." Cai Dongmei agreed immediately.
Before Ye Muqi came, she was the only one working in the store. Ye Muqi would still be there during the morning rush hour. Cai Dongmei felt that she could handle the continuous flow of customers in the future.
Cai Dongmei not only had no objection, but even looked at Ye Muqi with some worry, "Is there something important? Do you need my help?"
After all, Ye Muqi helped her run the breakfast shop.
If the little girl has any difficulties in life, she can help.
"No, I made an appointment with my wife to go furniture shopping tomorrow." Ye Muqi was afraid that the old lady would worry, so he explained with a smile, "I just wanted to tell you in advance."
"Buying furniture? That's a good thing!" Cai Dongmei was really happy for her when she heard it. "The young couple has a great relationship."
