Shen Xiao was not surprised by Qiao Baozhu's words.
"I have nothing to regret, and I will keep my promise to you. I hope you can give me a little more trust. My husband and I are comrades in the same trench."
Shen Xiao expressed his feelings again and again, which made Qiao Baozhu feel much more at ease.
"Okay. From now on, I will do my best to fulfill my duties as a wife, and please be a good son-in-law in front of my parents. I care about my parents very much, and I can compromise on anything except letting them suffer any grievances."
Shen Xiao thought about Qiao Baozhu's life experience, and the furnishings in the shack emerged in his mind. He nodded in understanding: "It should be."
There weren't many customers in the state-owned restaurant at noon, so the food was served especially quickly.
Braised pork belly, braised four-happiness meatballs, deep-fried hairtail, stir-fried pork intestines, sweet and sour pork, and stir-fried squid.
Stir-fried squid is considered seafood and the highest price is 1.9 yuan.
The next best dishes are fried hairtail and sweet and sour pork, each priced at 1.2 yuan.
Braised pork belly and four-happiness meatballs are 80 cents each.
The cheapest price for stir-fried pork intestines is only 0.12 cents, and because it is cheap, it is a must-order for every table.
The total cost for six meat dishes was six dollars, not counting the change.
The lunch boxes are free, you just need to pay a 50 cent deposit for each one, and you can return them to exchange them after you are done eating.
Because Qiao Baozhu didn't ask for staple food, she didn't need to give food coupons. After paying in cash, the two of them returned to the shack with their lunch boxes.
When Bao Huihua saw Shen Xiao coming back with a lunch box, she was no longer nervous and fidgety.
He grinned happily and pulled Shen Xiao's sleeve into the house.
When Qiao Changhai saw Shen Xiao coming in, his tense mood relaxed.
It seems that what my daughter said is right. Shen Xiao, this son-in-law, is indeed not a person who despises the poor and loves the rich.
Qiao Changhai was so excited that tears came out. He took the lunch box from Shen Xiao and took the opportunity to turn around to quickly wipe the corners of his eyes.
He was afraid that he would be discovered by the young couple, so he pretended to be relaxed and joked: "After all, this is a state-owned restaurant. The chef cooks really fast. Your mother hasn't even finished preparing two cold dishes when you guys came back."
It's not that Bao Huihua is slow at cooking. She is just worried that Shen Xiao will abandon his daughter and walk away, so she is too worried to work.
Bao Huihua was extremely happy to see her son-in-law come back this time. Ding ding dang dang, in less than ten minutes, two delicious and refreshing cold dishes were served.
Qiao Baozhu brought two plates of cold dishes and placed them on the dining table with a smile on her face.
"I've been eating this dish of cold shredded potatoes made by my mom since I was a child, and I never get tired of it. And this dish of smashed cucumber, even though it's a simple dish, my mom makes it differently from others."
"Chen Xiao, try it."
Seeing his daughter bragging about herself, Qiao Changhai smiled and said, "Child, with so many delicious dishes made by chefs, who would want to eat cold dishes?"
"Xiao Shen, come and sit down, let's have a drink."
Qiao Changhai opened a bottle of Wuliangye with some pain in his heart and poured a glass of wine for Shen Xiao himself.
Shen Xiao quickly said: "Dad, I drove here and I can't drink."
Only then did Qiao Changhai remember that his son-in-law could drive.
He slapped his forehead in annoyance and said, "Oh, how could I have forgotten about this. If I had known you didn't drink, I wouldn't have opened this bottle of wine."
Shen Xiao quickly said, "Dad, it's okay to leave. I'll drink tea instead of wine with you."
Qiao Changhai waved his hand, picked up the wine glass in front of Shen Xiao, and asked solemnly: “Xiao Shen, you really can’t drink?”
Shen Xiao nodded, his face serious: "Dad, we have rules, we can't drink when we go out."
"Okay, okay. Soldiers must abide by discipline. This is their nature."
Qiao Changhai poured the wine in the cup in front of Shen Xiao back into the bottle.
After covering the bottle, he smiled and said, "Xiao Shen, take this bottle of wine back with you later. It will be useful when you entertain guests for dinner in a few days."
Shen Xiao didn't have the nerve to do that, so he quickly opened his mouth to decline.
The father-in-law and son-in-law kept pushing the issue back and forth, and finally Qiao Baozhu couldn't stand it anymore. He reached out and snatched the bottle of Wuliangye away. "My dad usually drinks Sanbai. If you weren't here today, he would never be willing to open this bottle of wine in his life."
"Dad means that good steel should be used on the blade. If we don't take this bottle of wine away, he will have to come to our house to deliver it."
Qiao Changhai raised his head and laughed, pointing at Qiao Baozhu and patting Shen Xiao on the shoulder: "See? You are taking care of me now."
"Oh, my daughter has spoken, we can't disobey her."
