He extinguished the burning firewood and then neatly arranged the bowls and chopsticks.
At this moment, Su Miaoyan returned empty-handed. She walked to the dining table and found that Lu Ting was not there.
Did they leave because they thought her cooking was bad?
But there were two bowls of glistening rice on the table.
Su Miaoyan pulled out a chair and sat down. Lu Ting happened to come out of the kitchen and saw this scene.
"young married woman."
Hearing the voice, Su Miaoyan turned around, "Lu Ting."
"You're back." Lu Ting pulled out a chair and sat down.
"Um."
Seeing that he had come out of the kitchen, Su Miaoyan smiled and said, "Let's eat."
"good."
On the table were "stir-fried sweet potato leaves", "sweet and sour eggplant", "scrambled eggs with tomatoes", "loofah and egg soup", "braised pork with fermented bean curd" and "braised mixed fish". Su Miaoyan couldn't wait to try a bite of sweet and sour eggplant. The moment it entered her mouth, the soft and slightly sour taste spread. Su Miaoyan gave it a thumbs up in her heart.
Sure enough, food made with the spiritual spring water tastes delicious.
Lu Ting was stunned when he took his first bite.
The taste was surprisingly good.
Lu Ting certainly didn't hold back in praising his wife.
Although this was mostly thanks to the fully intelligent kitchen in the space, Su Miaoyan gladly accepted the praise.
The two quickly finished the rice in their bowls. Lu Ting looked at Su Miaoyan with even more heartache. Alas, it was all his fault. If he hadn't been away on a mission for so long, his wife wouldn't have been forced to learn to cook, and her cooking skills would have become so good.
Su Miaoyan may look small, but she has a big appetite. Perhaps it was because the food was so delicious today that she ended up eating all the leftovers.
Of course, Lu Ting was the main contributor to this effort.
After dinner, Lu Ting took it upon himself to wash the dishes. Su Miaoyan sweetly said, "Lu Ting, you're so kind," then pulled her chair back and left the room.
I approached the bicycle, unlocked it, and tentatively sat on it, steering it just like last time.
The bicycle was still wobbling and twisting as it rode, but Su Miaoyan wasn't afraid and slowly pedaled.
After washing the dishes, Lu Ting dried his hands with a towel. When he went outside, he looked left and right but couldn't see his wife. Hesitantly, he called out as he walked, "Wife?"
No one responded.
Just as Lu Ting was wondering, a bell rang outside. He went out and found his wife, whom he was looking for, riding a bicycle in the yard.
Upon seeing Lu Ting arrive, Su Miaoyan stopped the car, looked up, and gazed at his face. "Lu Ting, we just had dinner. Let's go out for a walk to digest our food."
Eggplant, rice, fish, winter melon, eggs... She ate quite a lot and felt very full, so Su Miaoyan wanted to go out to digest her food.
Lu Ting naturally had no objections, as he indeed had nothing to do tonight.
"Okay, let's go for a walk now."
Lu Ting pulled Su Miaoyan to leave the courtyard, but Su Miaoyan stopped him. She tugged at Lu Ting's sleeve and pointed to the bicycle parked beside them with her free hand.
She raised her head proudly, "Lu Ting, you promised to give me a ride last time, but you never found the time. Today you finally have time, so please ride her and take me out, okay?"
It never fails to charm Lu Ting, and sure enough, Lu Ting readily agreed.
Su Miaoyan was delighted, but Lu Ting was helpless. There was nothing he could do; she just fell for it!
Perhaps, he only responds to his wife's charms!
Lu Ting jumped onto the bicycle, and after he was settled, he looked back and said, "Wife, hold on tight."
"good!"
Su Miaoyan sat in the back and subconsciously hugged Lu Ting's waist. As the pedals were pressed, the bicycle slowly moved forward.
After Su Miaoyan gradually got used to it, the two parked their bicycles outside. Accompanied by the melodious sound of a long bell, they rode forward along the road lined with poplar trees.
The dim moonlight shone through the gaps in the trees, spreading across the ground and also falling on the two of them. As night fell, the heat-laden air gradually cooled down, and a gentle breeze brushed against their stray hairs.
As her stray hairs were lifted, Su Miaoyan felt a sense of peace and tranquility, as if all the suffering she had endured in her past life had been completely transformed in this one.
She felt so happy.
Su Miaoyan gazed at Lu Ting, who was intently looking ahead, staring at his strong and powerful back in a daze. Then, she slowly leaned her head against him, her gaze falling on the poplar tree that was slowly receding into the distance.
The surroundings were quiet, with only the rustling sound of the wind.
The family compound was brightly lit at night, a sight Su Miaoyan had never seen in her previous life.
Feeling the warmth emanating from the man through the fabric, Su Miaoyan grasped the hem of his shirt, closed her eyes, and listened to everything around her.
It was more like a leisurely drive than a mealtime stroll. Lu Ting didn't know how long he rode before finally stopping in a place surrounded by poplar trees in the family compound.
"young married woman?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Su Miaoyan opened her eyes.
What came into view was Lu Ting's handsome face, which showed concern. Su Miaoyan came back to her senses and got up from her seat.
"It was so cool just now that I couldn't resist taking a short nap."
Lu Ting patted her head, and Su Miaoyan then noticed that the area was full of poplar trees, and the leaves of the poplar trees were piled up in this area. For example, the ground under her feet was covered with leaves, which rustled when she stepped on them.
Not far away, there was a pavilion. There was no one in the pavilion, and the top was covered with fallen poplar leaves, creating a peaceful and beautiful scene.
Su Miaoyan said, "Lu Ting, let's go sit over there for a while."
Lu Ting followed her gaze and nodded, "Okay."
The two walked together to the pavilion, which was quite large. Su Miaoyan casually found a spot to sit down. The spot was covered with leaves, just the right amount so she wouldn't have to worry about getting her clothes dirty.
Lu Ting sat down next to her. For some reason, Lu Ting felt that his wife was acting a little strange today.
But he didn't say much, he just sat there quietly keeping Su Miaoyan company.
Su Miaoyan leaned on Lu Ting's shoulder, silently gazing at the moon hanging in the sky.
About a minute later, she spoke up, "Lu Ting, have you ever been to the research institute before?"
Lu Ting thought for a few seconds and replied, "I've been there, but I've never been inside the lab. I only went in before to protect the safety of the researchers."
"Oh, okay," Su Miaoyan responded, indicating that she understood, and did not speak again.
She enjoyed the moment of tranquility. The two remained motionless in that position, with leaves occasionally falling, which, from a distance, looked as if they were landing on their shoulders.
After an unknown amount of time, Su Miaoyan felt sleepy and mumbled, "Lu Ting, let's go back."
"good."
