Chapter 242: Meeting an Old Friend



Chapter 242 Meeting an Old Friend

Yi Chichi, "??? Who offended him?"

The smell of gunpowder is so strong.

The corner of Wang Nan's mouth twitched, and he whispered, "He had a quarrel with Xue Jiahuan."

It's just a matter of taking action.

"It's not me who's arguing with her, it's her who's being unreasonable and treating me like a slave, uh uh..."

Qi Yang, knowing that he would talk nonsense when he was angry, quickly covered his mouth and said angrily, "Shut up."

There are some things you really can't say casually, they can kill people.

"Don't interfere with other people's business, understand?!"

Wu Yongfei blinked. He naturally understood this principle, but the one who didn't understand was Xue Jiahuan.

He groaned and pointed at Xue Jiahuan's room, his eyes filled with anger as if he was about to burst into flames.

Seeing this, Yi Chichi wiped the sweat from his forehead, pulled him aside and asked, "What's going on?"

"She asked me to cook for her, and her tone and attitude were bad, making me feel like I owed her something. I was not willing to refuse, so do you know what she said?"

Yi Chichi shook her head. If she wanted to know, she wouldn't ask.

"She said I was a loser who just hung around the stove all day long."

Yi Chichi took a breath of cold air. What's wrong with Xue Jiahuan? Everyone knows that she is so good at hugging people's thighs. She is afraid that others don't know that she wants to get involved with the old man and them.

He doesn't even know how to lower his posture when asking people for help. He orders people around like a servant, and calls them trash when they are rejected. This is the reason why Wu Yongfei has an optimistic personality despite his bad mouth.

If it were someone with a bad temper, he would probably have started a fight on the spot.

"She didn't come out."

"She doesn't dare."

Wu Yongfei snorted, "If she dares to come out, I will beat her up."

Bai Chen sighed and said to Yi Chichi, "Go back and ignore him. We will watch over them both."

Yi Chichi has already moved out, so it’s better not to involve her in the internal conflicts in the Youth League Home.

Not good for her.

"Okay then. I'll go back first."

Yi Chichi understood what he meant and was willing to accept his kindness. Before leaving, she reminded Wu Yongfei, "Be calm in the face of things and listen to Lao Bai and the others."

"good."

Wu Yongfei agreed readily. Seeing this, Yi Chichi left with peace of mind. With Bai Chen and the others watching over him, nothing would go wrong.

When I got home, my mother was just about to cook, and I saw her coming back with a bunch of things. I wondered, "What are these?"

"The fabric that Chi Jiaojiao uses to make clothes."

As she spoke, she put the cloth away and took the fish from the basket and handed it over, "Mom, cook the fish."

Mother Wen didn't rush to answer, but asked seriously, "Did you go to Shuipaozi?"

"…Uncle Yaozi gave it to me."

She doesn't have the ability to catch fish in the water, let alone such a big carp.

The expression on Wen's mother's face relaxed. She was so scared that she thought her daughter-in-law was so greedy for fish that she ran to the water puddle to catch fish.

How dangerous.

Fortunately, it was given by Yaozi.

"How would you like to eat?"

How to eat carp? Yi Chichi thought about it and found that she had never eaten carp, so she said, "Mom, you decide."

"How about braised carp with sauce?"

"OK."

So, for dinner, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had braised carp with sauce. It was delicious and tender. Yi Chichi fell in love with it as soon as she ate it. She said with emotion, "I thought carp meat was very rough and fishy."

“That’s southern carp.”

Mother Wen smiled and said, "The carp from the Northeast has tender meat and fewer bones. Because of the water quality, it doesn't have that fishy smell. It tastes better than crucian carp with more bones."

It’s really delicious.

The braised carp in sauce is delicious and goes well with rice. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law ate until their bellies were full.

In the evening, Wen's mother came to find her after taking a bath. At that time, Yi Chichi was sitting at the table making coils for the buttons.

When she heard the knock on the door, she said "Come in". Wen's mother came in and saw that her table was full of things. She came over to take a look and said, "Making buttons."

"Um."

She responded without looking up, "Mom, are you okay?"

"I'm going to go out after the autumn harvest."

"Where are you going?"

Yi Chichi put down the work in his hands and looked over. Wen's mother smiled and said, "Go meet an old friend."

“Is it far?”

"Not far, in the city."

Yi Chichi remained silent. It was actually quite far from Kaoshantun to the city, and it would take at least two days to get back.

but--

"I'll go with you."

Given her mother-in-law's face, she was worried about letting her go on a long journey alone.

"good."

The agreement was too readily given. Yi Chi was stunned for two seconds before she realized that the purpose of Wen's mother coming to tell her the news was to ask her to go along.

She instantly became interested and asked, "Mom, who is your old friend?"

"We are close friends in life and death. She saved me on the battlefield, and I saved her too."

"Lesbian?"

"That can't be gay either."

Mother Wen smiled and touched her head. "I was working in logistics at that time, and there were many female comrades around me."

Yi Chichi smiled awkwardly and said, "I thought he was a gay."

She and Wen Shi talked about Wen's mother's personal situation. Wen Shi agreed with her mother to find another one. Before he joined the army, he was very enthusiastic about finding a man for her mother. In the end, he was beaten by her mother despite her illness.

It even made my mother cry.

Later he didn't dare to mention it, and after saying it, he didn't forget to complain to Yi Chichi that his mother loved his father deeply.

Thinking of this, she took Wen's mother's hand and said, "Mom, let me ask you a question."

"What?"

"Have you ever considered looking again?"

Wen's mother's forehead was full of black lines. Should we say that they are worthy of being a family? Chi Chi, this child, should be the daughter-in-law of her old Wen family.

She has very similar ideas to her son and they both like to worry about other people's things.

"No."

She said firmly, "I will stay with you two from now on. If you think I'm in the way, I will live by myself. When you have a baby, you can bring the baby back to see me."

"Then mom, please take care of the baby and cook for me in the future."

This was equivalent to a promise that he would take her with him no matter where she and Wen Shi were.

Wen's mother understood the meaning of her words and a gentle smile appeared on her face.

"Mom will cook for you for the rest of your life."

"Then I'll leave my 100-pound body to mom."

Yi Chichi hugged her and acted like a spoiled child. Mother Wen smiled and patted the back of her head, "You are an adult, but you are still like a child."

Her eyes fell on the coils on the table and she said, "Are you going to finish these tonight?"

“I can’t finish it.”

Speaking of business, Yi Chichi got up from her arms, took the coil and said, "But don't worry, just do it slowly."

Here are several sets of coiled strips. It will take some time to coil them all.

"What tricks are you going to do?"

Wen's mother took a piece of wire and asked.

"Pipa buckle, happiness buckle... auspicious buckle, these are the only types for now."

"I'll help you."

Yi Chichi was shocked, "Mom, can you do buttonholes?"

"I have learned it, and I have also learned cheongsam, but I haven't mastered it."

I only know how to do simple cutting and clothing, nothing more complicated.

Yi Chizhi scratched her scalp. Her mother-in-law really knew a lot of things.

Good.

"Then let's do it together."

"Come."

Then, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law spent more than two hours under the light to make two sets of eight buttons in total.
