Mrs. Yang was forced to take a few steps back by her momentum.
He stammered, "It's not that serious..."
"Really?"
With the idea that being cute is shameful but useful, Xiaoguo showed an awkward expression to Mrs. Yang, which could barely be called cute.
Mrs. Yang saw that there was something she didn't understand and realized that he was teasing her on purpose.
"Okay, don't even think about getting over it like this."
Seeing this, Xiaoguo quickly handed over the sour plums she had prepared and immediately shut up Mrs. Yang.
The nagging on my lips suddenly changed direction.
"I don't even need your introduction. I got to know the two girls by myself this morning."
Xiaoguo sat opposite her and couldn't help laughing when he saw her eating.
"I don't really like these sour plums." Sister Yang said as she stuffed some into her mouth. "I only forgave you because you admitted your mistakes with a good attitude."
"Yes, yes." Xiao Guo put away his smile and nodded quickly, "It's my fault."
After hearing what she said, Mrs. Yang pretended to forgive her reluctantly.
"Thank you, sister-in-law, for lunch."
Xiaoguo knew that when she was not at home, Zhuangzhuang and the others would definitely not go hungry, and Mrs. Yang would definitely come to call them to eat when it was time for dinner.
"It's no big deal~" Mrs. Yang waved her hands nonchalantly.
Xiaoguo smiled at her sincerely. It was great to have neighbors, friends and family like Mrs. Yang.
During the chat, Mrs. Yang heard that Xiaoguo was looking for a decorator, so she offered her a good job.
"My maternal uncle's eldest brother is a carpenter in the county. You can go and see him."
Xiaoguo was delighted when she heard this, "That's great, I don't have to look everywhere for it."
When Mrs. Yang heard her say this, she shook her head and said, "This kind of thing cannot be avoided. We should look for more companies so that we can make a choice after comparison."
Xiaoguo also knew this, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to the store you mentioned tomorrow to have a look."
Mrs. Yang then nodded and told her the address with confidence.
The purpose of her telling Xiaoguo was not to let her choose directly, but to give her another choice. After all, they were acquaintances and the price she offered would be lower.
–
It was time for dinner and Mrs. Yang was about to cook. Xiao Guo got up, said goodbye, and went home.
As soon as I entered the yard, I noticed that smoke was coming out of the kitchen chimney.
I suddenly became interested. I was so self-conscious today that I was actually cooking.
"Mother~"
"Sister Xiaoguo~"
Before Xiaoguo entered the kitchen, Zhuangzhuang, Yuling and Xiaozhu, who had sharp ears, called out in unison.
It sounded fine, but Xiaoguo still detected a signal for help from it.
"Hmm? What delicious food should I make?"
Xiaoguo walked into the kitchen with a smile, then walked out stiffly. It turned out that not only was there smoke coming out of the chimney, but the entire kitchen was filled with smoke as well.
"Come out quickly! It's so smoky inside, how can we treat people?"
Xiao Guo rubbed his eyes, looked at the few people still standing there stupidly, and said anxiously.
Because of the stove blocking her view, she could not see the people below who were trying to put out the fire.
Seeing the three of them with strange expressions, Xiao Guo subconsciously felt that they must be messing around.
"Are you three going to burn down my kitchen?"
The three people in the room tensed up and looked nervously at the stiff man beside them. Then they shook their heads anxiously at Xiaoguo, not knowing whether she could see it.
Zhuangzhuang pouted and gestured to the person beside him with a wronged look.
Xiaoguo didn't quite understand and exclaimed.
Afterwards, Yuling and Xiaozhu were also gesticulating with anxious faces.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Guo was so confused by the words of the others that she really didn't understand what they meant, so she could only shout into the room, "Jiang Danhe!"
She had been back for a while, but hadn't seen Jiang Shanhe. The other three were still talking in a weird way. She urgently needed someone who could communicate with her verbally and help her solve her puzzles.
"Hmm~"
Xiaoguo thought he was hallucinating. He looked in the kitchen and the inner room, but couldn't understand what was going on, so he shouted again.
"Jiang Shanhe!"
A faint, weak response came from the kitchen, "Hmm!"
This time Xiao Guo heard it clearly. He turned his head to look at the kitchen and whispered to the three stunned people, "No way."
The three of them nodded silently. Yes, Dad (brother-in-law) is here and he also cooks in the kitchen.
Jiang Shanhe then raised his head from the stove, looked at Xiaoguo and smiled.
Xiaoguo turned around immediately, his shoulders shaking.
But don't get me wrong, I'm not crying, I'm laughing.
What happened to Jiang Shanhe? He actually got the ash from the bottom of the pot on his face. It's so funny!
After a while, Xiaoguo calmed down and turned to look at him.
Just when she turned around, Jiang Shanhe had already stood up from his stool, walked to the door frame, and looked at Xiaoguo sadly.
She never came back, and Zhuangzhuang kept complaining that he was hungry, so he had no choice but to go to bed himself.
But Zhuangzhuang, Xiaozhu Yuling and the other two were worried about him cooking and insisted on gathering together to watch him. They said they were there to help out of good intentions, but the real situation was clear: they were monitoring him under the guise of helping.
He had seen all sorts of things, so how could he be afraid of the eyes of just three little kids?
However, Jiang Shanhe could not help but admit that he was too arrogant.
Three pairs of eyes without any malicious intent stared at him blankly. Even if his mental ability was strong, he could not stand three pairs of innocent eyes.
As soon as he added water, someone would come over to see if it was enough. As soon as he added firewood, someone would follow closely to see if he could make a fire.
If they were not too young, Jiang Shanhe would have slapped them one by one.
Just like that, they added a lot of firewood unknowingly. When the fire started, the chimney could not emit so much smoke, and half of the smoke floated out through the open stove. By the time they noticed it, the whole kitchen was filled with smoke, black and rumbling, just like the hell in the story that Xiaoguo told them.
Before he could be rescued, Xiaoguo came back.
"I'll do it?"
Xiao Guo held back her smile and asked Jiang Shanhe.
Jiang Shanhe shook his head gently, "Let me do it, you're tired enough today."
"Then I'll help you?"
This time, Jiang Shanhe nodded without hesitation.
The two of them went into the kitchen together, and the smoke inside had dissipated a little. Zhuangzhuang wanted to stay and help, but Xiaozhu and Yuling were very considerate at this time and pulled Zhuangzhuang, who was reluctant to leave, back into the house.
Now, the kitchen belongs to both of them.
Xiao Guo couldn't help it, so he dipped his hand in some clean water, walked up to Jiang Shanhe, and wiped the dust off his face.
"Don't move."
Jiang Shanhe froze in place, looking at the woman so close to him, his heart couldn't help but beat wildly.
The setting sun shone through the open window onto Xiaoguo's face, and a gentle halo spread across her face.
Jiang Shanhe was fascinated by the woman's serious expression and soft hands.
I couldn't help but look at those slightly open lips. The four words "red lips and white teeth" were truly reflected on Xiaoguo's mouth.
The rosy lips were now opening and closing slightly with her breathing.
Jiang Shanhe felt as if his heart was bitten by ants and it was itchy. Finally, he could not bear it anymore and pulled the hand that was about to leave his face, gently pulled it into his arms, and leaned forward according to his heart.
Xiaoguo was stunned at first, then she started to struggle. This was the kitchen and the children were at home. If she was accidentally seen, she would be dead.
Jiang Shanhe moved away from her a little and said breathlessly, "I'll watch over it."
After saying that, without waiting for Xiaoguo to resist, he leaned over and pressed on her again.
Maybe it was because the other person's breath was too intoxicating, or something else, Xiaoguo suddenly didn't want to resist and just wanted to follow his rhythm.
The two were inseparable, unaware that everything was being watched by a pair of curious big eyes.
