"What's so special about rice noodles? I don't eat rice noodles. I just want to eat Aunt Liang's poached chicken."
Tang Lingzhi was not from the South and was not used to eating this white chicken. In her opinion, the chicken was still bloody and not cooked at all.
"If you don't want noodles, you can eat something else. Whatever you want to eat, it's on me."
"No, I just want to eat Aunt Liang's poached chicken."
"Captain Gu and Zhou Yue are family members, what are you doing there, an outsider?"
"Let's go get something to eat. I'm so familiar with Aunt Liang, what's wrong with having a meal together? She'll definitely welcome me."
Tang Lingzhi was furious. She kicked Li Wei and left.
Li Wei returned muttering to himself, and Gu Yunzheng overheard him and asked, "Did you offend Tang Lingzhi again?"
"Who upset her? She did it for no reason. I wanted to eat Aunt Liang's poached chicken, but she insisted on treating me to rice noodles."
Liang Guiying interjected, "I can make you poached chicken anytime you want, but going out with a girl isn't an opportunity every day. Comrade Tang Lingzhi cares about you quite a bit, Comrade Li Wei, you know what I mean, right?"
Li Wei didn't understand, and Liu Liang, who was standing next to him, couldn't stand it anymore and kicked him: "Tang Lingzhi likes you! A girl likes you, why are you still eating boiled chicken? Go chase after her!"
Li Wei covered his buttocks and said, "I'm not going. I don't like her. She's too rude. I can't stand her."
"You don't like someone like her? Or do you like someone like Zhou Yue?"
The room fell silent immediately after Liu Liang said this.
A few seconds later, Gu Yunzheng put his arm around Li Wei's neck and said, "Li Wei, come with me to buy soy sauce."
A dozen minutes later, Gu Yunzheng returned with a bottle of soy sauce. Li Wei was nowhere to be seen, so Liang Guiying asked him a question.
"Oh, he went out for rice noodles with Tang Lingzhi."
Li Wei did indeed go to town with Tang Lingzhi.
He covered his face and said, "Captain Gu is too petty. I haven't even said anything yet, and he's already beaten me up."
Tang Lingzhi laughed until her stomach hurt: "You deserved it!"
"But they say you like me."
"...I haven't broken any heavenly rules!"
...
After drying the bamboo for two or three days, Liang Guiying began to make a reclining chair.
The neighbor in the small courtyard on the left is surnamed Ma. Aunt Ma is from the north and is very cheerful. When she saw Liang Guiying splitting bamboo strips early in the morning, she came to help.
The two chatted as they worked, and time flew by.
It took Liang Guiying three days to make a reclining chair.
It's so beautiful and exquisite that Aunt Ma's eyes widened in admiration: "Guiying, how come you're so skillful? Why don't I give you money and you make one for me too?"
"Isn't your daughter-in-law about to give birth? How about I make you a cradle?"
"That would be wonderful!"
After Aunt Ma finished making the cradle, she spread the word everywhere, and soon the whole camp knew that Liang Guiying had skillful hands and could do anything.
Someone wanted to commission Liang Guiying to make a children's stroller; they even drew up the blueprints and were willing to pay for it.
Liang Guiying politely declined with a smile. After the table and bamboo chairs were all finished, she used the remaining bamboo to build a trellis over the vegetable garden and planted a grape vine. By summer, she should be able to eat grapes.
The weather in Guicheng was similar to that in Jiangcheng. After finishing her chores at home, Liang Guiying called Chen Yingzi and asked her to arrange for two people to come to Guicheng.
People can't be idle.
Liang Guiying then enthusiastically resumed her business.
