Gu Weizhou gave her one to eat, and seeing her squint her eyes from the sourness, he asked, "Does it taste good now?"
Ruan Yunxi nodded.
Gu Weizhou asked, "Is it delicious?"
Ruan Yunxi smiled and nodded, indicating that he could help himself if he wanted to eat.
Gu Weizhou, shameless as ever, lowered his head, kissed her lips, and snatched the preserved plum from her mouth.
Ruan Yunxi said disdainfully, "You're so unrefined."
Gu Weizhou shamelessly said, "I like to eat imported food."
Ruan Yunxi: "......."
This guy is the repressed type!
The next day, the weather was excellent, with blue skies, white clouds, and a gentle sea breeze. Gu Weizhou trained as usual, while Ruan Yunxi slept in as usual. She was there to relax and enjoy herself, and would never get up to work if she could sleep.
Besides, there's not much chores to do at home.
Gu Weizhou was too diligent. He washed Ruan Yunxi's clothes, brushed her shoes, and washed and dried her bed sheets and blankets. Ruan Yunxi only needed to bring the clothes in before dark.
Ruan Yunxi, who woke up late, ate lunch and breakfast together. She ate sweet and sour fish that she had stored in her space, along with stir-fried tofu, a small bowl of winter melon and clam soup, and a small bowl of rice. After eating and drinking her fill, she washed the dishes herself.
The main reason is that these tableware items are for storage space, and they are different from the coarse bowls and chopsticks used in the family compound. Ruan Yunxi uses the mansion's tableware, which is delicate and beautiful, and it is obviously not from home.
She has to wash.
Not long after they finished eating and drinking, Little Potato came to deliver a message: "Auntie, Auntie, there's a package from Uncle. He said it was sent from Beijing. It's a big package with Uncle's name on it. Mom asked me to tell you that she'll have someone deliver it to you later. Don't go out."
Gu Weizhou's package must have been sent by his mother.
The previous phone call had been unpleasant, so Ruan Yunxi hadn't paid any attention to the packages.
When Sister-in-law Sheng had two handsome young soldiers deliver their family's package, Ruan Yunxi immediately took out two popsicles from her spatial storage and gave them to the young men, who were sweating profusely: "You've worked hard, have a popsicle, it's from your sister-in-law, don't be shy!"
Since she had said that, the two young men smiled and accepted the ice pops, saying thank you, sister-in-law. They returned the way they came, each with an ice pop. They took a lick, and it was cool and sweet—a mung bean ice pop. It was the first time they had eaten an ice pop this year, and it was given to them by their sister-in-law. It was delicious.
The women in the family compound are so generous and warm-hearted.
Ruan Yunxi took out four more and explained, "I just went out and felt a bit hot, so I bought some popsicles. You guys can try them."
Little Cherry and Little Potato's eyes lit up; they wanted to eat it, but they needed to ask their mother's opinion first.
Sister-in-law Sheng smiled and nodded. They happily accepted it, eagerly unpacked it, and started eating. It was sweet and cool, and one bite was delicious!
Sister-in-law Sheng shook her head: "I haven't been eating cold food these past few days, I'm on my period."
Ruan Yunxi understood immediately. Seeing the two children staring at her, she smiled and gave each of them half: "You can eat this after you finish eating this. Don't cry if you get a stomachache from eating too much!"
They nodded in assurance.
Sister-in-law Sheng didn't stop them. She knew the children liked it, and it was okay for them to eat it occasionally. After all, popsicles were something they could only eat when it was hot.
Sister-in-law Sheng asked curiously, "Did this come from Commander Gu's hometown?"
Ruan Yunxi nodded.
Sister-in-law Sheng asked, "Did you go to Beijing before you got married?"
"I went there once many years ago. It was winter, cold and dry. I got a nosebleed on the second day. I couldn't stand the cold, so I left after three days. I rarely go to Beijing."
Sister-in-law Sheng thought about it and agreed. She lived in the south and would definitely not be able to stand the winter in the north.
"Fortunately, Liancheng isn't too cold in winter, and it's located by the sea. If it were any other city in the three northeastern provinces, it would be really cold." Sister-in-law Sheng really likes Liancheng; it has the sea and mountains, and plenty of food and drink.
Thinking of something, Sister Sheng said, "The performing arts troupe will be performing at our base in a few days. Let's all go see the performance together."
"Great!" Ruan Yunxi had never seen a performance by the cultural troupe before!
At this moment, Ruan Yunxi was unaware that trouble was already on its way.
