Chapter 184 Cen Yan Invites Me to Dinner Again
Immediately afterwards, the phone went dead, like a series of heavy hammer blows to Wang Lijuan's heart.
Clang, thud! Her heart ached, and tears streamed down her face. At first, she only wanted to introduce a good marriage to her niece, but now that Wang Manman had caused such a huge disaster, how could it be her fault as the middleman?
Does what my sister-in-law means mean that Wang Manman made a mistake and the responsibility lies with her?
Haha! If it weren't for her elder brother and sister-in-law insisting that she find a promising young man in the army who could become a high-ranking officer for Wang Manman, she would have introduced Wang Manman to Qi Jingchuan much more than just that.
Since her family felt that she was at fault from beginning to end, she decided to handle the matter entirely.
Wang Lijuan went into the room, found a bundle of large black ten-yuan notes, counted them, and found there were more than three hundred yuan.
Wrap it in a handkerchief and hide it inside your underwear to avoid losing it.
He went to find Political Commissar Lu with an umbrella, hoping that he could find a way to let him go to Xiangyang Brigade.
I'll officiate at Wang Manman's wedding! And also, I'll inform Wang Manman of the family's decision.
The news of Wang Manman and Zhang Wei's affair spread throughout the entire production team. Cen Yan was the first in the medical team to know about it, and she was also the victim, as the adulterous couple were having an affair in her and Qi Jingchuan's bed.
As soon as they entered the medical team's room, Yang Mei curiously approached them, "Cen Yan, how did things go? Was the person Wang Manman initially wanted to harm really you? Or your lover?"
At first, Yang Mei didn't know the identity of Cen Yan's lover, but now that she does, he is actually a regimental-level cadre. Who knows if Wang Manman wants to harm Cen Yan or if she wants to seduce Qi Jingchuan in bed so that things will go wrong again and again?
Cen Yan had no interest in answering such a boring question. "Captain Xiang gave a strict order that no one is allowed to talk about these topics. We are not part of the Xiangyang Brigade. We will be returning to the city in a couple of days. Let's avoid trouble."
“It shouldn’t be a problem to talk about it in private…” Yang Mei was still unwilling to give up, but when she saw Cen Yan’s smiling expression, she became a little scared. She should have known that Cen Yan was not the type to gossip about people in private.
Yang Mei stuck out her tongue, not wanting to delve deeper into the topic.
Just then, a fragrance wafted through the air. Yang Mei sniffed and exclaimed, "Cen Yan, can you smell something? It smells so good!"
"I borrowed a stove from a fellow villager and cooked noodles for everyone. I put a little lard in the soup, so it smelled really good." A sincere smile slowly appeared on Cen Yan's face.
As long as they don't talk about topics she's not interested in, Cen Yan is quite happy to talk to Yang Mei.
Upon hearing that Cen Yan had prepared noodles for the medical team, and that they were cooked with lard, Yang Mei's eyes widened in surprise, and the others looked at Cen Yan with even more intense adoration.
"White noodles? Or with lard? Cen Yan, you're so kind!" They had prepared food for the soldiers before, and they were too embarrassed to ask if there was any for themselves.
After all, the food was provided by Cen Yan herself. Giving it to them was a favor, and not giving it to them was her right.
But now Cen Yan actually took the initiative to bring out such good grains to treat them to a meal. I really don't understand why Wang Manman and the others bully her so relentlessly when Cen Yan is so kind.
"Everyone, put aside what you're doing and have lunch first." Cen Yan ladled a bowl of noodles for Dean Huang. "Master, you eat first."
"Why are you going to such lengths, child? Well then, I'll gladly accept your offer." Dean Huang was overjoyed to see Cen Yan offer him a bowl of noodles first, his eyes slowly reddening.
It's not that he hasn't taken on apprentices, it's just that none of them are like Cen Yan, who always thinks of her, their master, when there's something good to eat.
Cen Yan made these noodles not just to treat people, but also because she had some questions to ask.
