The two of them went out very early, and when they came back it was already dark. It was snowing outside, and Chen Yun walked slowly. Liu Qiao was afraid she would fall, so he reminded her: "Watch your feet and walk slowly."
"Yeah, I know. Brother Liu Qiao too, be careful." Chen Yun also reminded her husband.
Although she was very tired today, she was still in high spirits: "Let's take a rest tomorrow while preparing the dishes in advance, and invite people over for dinner the day after tomorrow, and then we'll go directly to Dragon City for dinner. We said we were going to eat out today, but we ended up buying too much and didn't go."
Liu Qiao was relieved to see that although Chen Yun said she wanted to plan something, she was not stingy. Their group leader Zhang was very strict with Qin Guizhi, and he had to make up a lot of excuses to smoke a pack of the cheapest cigarettes. Although he gave the money to Chen Yun to manage, he also hoped that she would manage it better and better, instead of asking for even basic expenses.
After returning home and seeing the warm bed, Chen Yun immediately lay down on it and didn't want to get up. She remembered that neither she nor Liu Qiao had eaten yet, so she took out the fresh noodles she had bought.
She first soaked the black fungus and then chopped it into pieces. She then cut some lean meat and water celery and stir-fried them all together in a pot. The aroma came out as soon as they were stir-fried. Liu Qiao came to the kitchen when he smelled the fragrance. Chen Yun scooped a spoonful of the aroma, blew it at her lips and gave it to him.
"Oh, it's delicious." Liu Qiao praised while eating.
Chen Yun was of course very happy that others praised her delicious food. "It's delicious, right? Wait a few minutes, I'll put the noodles in and cook them, and then you can eat them."
Liu Qiao leaned against the door: "I'll just watch you do it."
Chen Yun quickly poured the hot water from the kettle into the pot. After a while, the water boiled. She put the noodles in and cooked them. Then she took them out and put them in cold water and poured salt on them. Liu Qiao quickly took a bowl and ate it. They were both very hungry. Chen Yun ate a bowl and Liu Qiao finished the rest.
The two of them sat on the sofa made by Chen Yun, hugging their bellies, to rest. Originally, she bought a bench, and Chen Yun made the cushion herself, also made of the leftover blue cloth. There were small yellow flowers sewn on the chair back. Before, Liu Qiao was reluctant to do it because he thought it was too cold, but since Chen Yun put the cushion here, this place has become his favorite.
"Brother Liu Qiao, go and install the cable TV tomorrow. This way you can watch TV. It's nice to watch TV and listen to music sometimes." Chen Yun patted Liu Qiao beside her, and Liu Qiao agreed of course. He couldn't cook either. Don't think that he usually pretended to know everything. In fact, apart from making noodles, his cooking skills were really not that good.
Chen Yun didn't expect much from him in the kitchen. There were only two people at home, and she knew how to cook and liked to cook, so she cooked. He could do other heavy lifting or home decoration. It would be good for the two of them to work together!
The couple sat for a while, and Chen Yun put the New Year's goods in the cupboard, and the fish and meat in the kitchen. After everything was put away, she went to take a shower.
After taking a shower, Chen Yun said to Liu Qiao: "Brother Liu Qiao, let's sit on our 'sofa' and soak our feet today. I think you must be very tired from training these days. Soaking your feet will be very comfortable."
Liu Qiao wanted to go to bed right away, but Chen Yun knew she was lazy, so she poured out the water from the kettle and made some cool water. "You're lazy, so I'll put a basin at your feet and see how lazy you are."
"It's so comfortable." After Liu Qiao put his feet in, hot steam filled the air, and his feet felt warm and his whole body felt comfortable.
He saw Chen Yun's half-smile again and smiled awkwardly: "Yun Yun is still amazing."
Chen Yun said coquettishly: "Look at how lazy you are."

This was the first time Liu Qiao fell asleep, and Chen Yun did not wake him up because he was usually too tired. She felt sorry for her man, so she got up and cooked porridge. When the porridge was ready, Liu Qiao woke up, and Chen Yun quickly fried three poached eggs for him.
"Brother Liu Qiao, come and have breakfast."
Liu Qiao kissed her and said, "My wife is so virtuous."
"Eat quickly. I've already eaten. I'm going to start frying the porridge now. After you finish your porridge, go out and find someone to set up the antenna."
She thought of making fish balls with half of the fish, cutting it into large pieces and coating it with flour for frying, and frying meatballs as well. She was not very strong and worked very slowly, so she had to do all the preparations in advance.
The simplest meatballs are to beat a few eggs in minced meat, add seasoning, onions and water chestnuts, mix everything well, then pinch out a few meatballs and fry them. When they turn golden brown, take them out. The fragrance is so fragrant that Chen Yun can't help but sip.
There is no need to fry the fish balls, just make them and set them aside.
It took her a whole morning to finish it. Liu Qiao was installing the antenna in the living room. After hearing the sound, Chen Yun hurried out. The Hong Kong movie The Legend of the Condor Heroes was playing on TV.
When she saw the charming Huang Rong, she couldn't help but sit down. After watching for a while, Liu Qiao asked her, "Are you tired? Take a rest for a while. Do you want me to help you?"
"No, it's almost done. I just need to stir-fry a few dishes tomorrow."
Liu Qiao diligently massaged Chen Yun's shoulders. Chen Yun pointed to her shoulder blade and said, "It hurts here."
The husband massaged himself for a while, and then they both fried some cabbage and ate it.
The next day, Chen Yun got up early, cleaned the house, turned on the TV, and cut the fruits and put them on the fruit plate. She only bought apples and oranges yesterday, and they looked pretty on the white plate.
Then she took out all the melon seeds and peanuts and put them on the tea table, and urged Liu Qiao to get up. Liu Qiao was not nervous at all, because he knew that Chen Yun did this for him, and wanted to leave a good impression on his comrades.
"Do you want my help?"
Chen Yun pointed to the quail eggs with shells beside her and said, "Peel them all."
The fried meatballs have all been placed on a large plate, the fish balls are also placed on a large plate, and the fried fish pieces are placed next to it.
These are the dishes I made yesterday. The stir-fried dishes I’m going to prepare today are fish fillet, fried and salted broad beans, red pepper eggs, minced meat tofu, and a portion of stir-fried vegetables.
Chen Dafen's son Hu Qiang had arrived earlier and was sitting in their house watching TV. Their family hadn't bought a TV yet, but the kids loved TV. After Chen Dafen entered the kitchen, she saw that everything was in order. She smiled and said, "Big sister, you've done it all. Do you need my help?"
Chen Yun shook her head: "No, no, sister-in-law, go to the front and watch TV. I bought some spiced melon seeds yesterday, go grab a handful and eat them."
"Hey, let me help you cut some vegetables or something..."
Chen Yun smiled and said, "Really, no need. I didn't even cook a few dishes."
Chen Dafen saw Qin Guizhi coming again and didn't force herself anymore.
