At 5:30 in the afternoon, Li Xiuxiu took Ningning to the door and began to look around.
The family compound is inside the 179th Division Headquarters, but it is quite far from the training area. Usually, the several regimental-level cadres living here are picked up and dropped off by driver Xiao Zhang.
As soon as Gu Ye got off the car, Li Xiuxiu saw him with her sharp eyes. Her eyes lit up and she excitedly picked up Ningning and went to meet him.
"Xiu! Wait for me!" Li Hongying shouted. She put down the spatula, wiped her hands on her apron, and followed them out. "I have a few words to say to Captain Gu."
"Oh!" Li Xiuxiu's mind and eyes were filled with the tall and handsome man walking towards her. She had no idea what Li Hongying was saying.
"Dad!" As soon as Ningning saw Gu Ye, she immediately opened her arms towards Gu Ye, her little face full of joy.
Gu Ye took a few quick steps and took Ningning over with a smile, "Ningning, did you miss your dad today?"
"Well, Ningning has been thinking about daddy!" Ningning hugged Gu Ye's neck, very attached.
Li Xiuxiu had prepared a lot of things to say to Gu Ye, but when Gu Ye approached, her brain was not enough. Her face turned red as if blood was dripping out. She held her thick braid and did not dare to look up at Gu Ye.
"Let's go home!" Gu Ye didn't notice Li Xiuxiu's shyness, and hugged Ningning and walked home.
"Hey, Captain Gu, wait a minute!" Li Hongying did not go to work today. Although Jiang Yue did not allow her to do it, she was afraid that Gu Ye would go back and Jiang Yue would blame her, so she quickly explained things to Gu Ye.
"Okay! I got it!" When Gu Ye heard Li Hongying say that Jiang Yue had kicked her out and wouldn't let her cook, he frowned almost imperceptibly and just said lightly that he knew.
Jiang Yue has been acting very abnormally since yesterday, and no matter how abnormal things happen, he doesn't seem to be surprised.
Gu Ye took Ning Ning by the hand and walked towards home. The family compound of the division headquarters was divided into two parts. This side was full of old houses and townhouses, one for each family. Last year, the division headquarters built several more family buildings, and only those at the rank of company commander and above could apply for them.
One of the things that caused the quarrel between Jiang Yue and Gu Ye was that she wanted to live in the new staff housing complex, but Gu Ye gave the qualification to someone else. Jiang Yue was so angry that she went on a hunger strike at home.
Gu Ye walked away, but Li Xiuxiu was still staring at him, unwilling to look away.
Li Hongying pulled Li Xiuxiu, with an expression of disappointment, "You are just too honest. Captain Gu was standing in front of you just now, why didn't you say anything? What's the point of looking at it now?"
Li Xiuxiu bit her lip and said nothing.
Gu Ye's home was at the innermost part. When the father and daughter were about to reach the door, Ning Ning suddenly tugged at Gu Ye's clothes, raised her head and asked cautiously, "Dad, will Mom leave again when she comes back this time?"
"Why do you ask?" Gu Ye squatted down and looked at Ningning.
Ningning pouted, "Dad is taking mom home, does that mean he doesn't want Ningning anymore?"
Gu Ye frowned when he heard this, "Who told you that? Did mom tell you that?"
Ningning opened her mouth to say no, but suddenly remembered what Li Hongying said. She looked around, afraid that a big bad wolf would suddenly appear and bite her, so she hid in Gu Ye's arms in fear.
Gu Ye's eyes suddenly darkened, "It's Jiang Yue again!"
Jiang Yue, who was busy in the yard, suddenly sneezed. She rubbed her nose and looked up at the sky. It seemed to be windy and a little cold.
When Gu Ye pushed open the door of the yard, he thought he would see a mess. Jiang Yue never did housework at home and liked to throw things around. Her living habits were terrible. So Gu Ye asked Li Hongying to come and clean the house and cook lunch.
However, to Gu Ye's surprise, the yard seemed exceptionally clean today. The leaves and dead branches he saw when he went out in the morning were gone, and the ground seemed to have been sprinkled with water, making it clean everywhere.
Gu Ye felt that something was wrong. He looked up and around, trying to find where Jiang Yue was. At this time, she should be reading in the house, so Gu Ye prepared to go in.
At this time, Ningning shrugged her little nose and said, "Dad, it smells so good!"
Gu Ye also smelled the fragrance, which came from the kitchen. His eyebrows were almost knotted, and he scolded: "Jiang Yue, what are you doing?"
Every time Jiang Yue enters the kitchen, nothing good happens!
A head popped out from the kitchen window. It was Jiang Yue. She had her hair tied into a ponytail and was waving a spatula, smiling brightly. "You guys are back! Wait a moment, there's another dish that will be ready soon!"
Gu Ye thought he was dazzled. Did he seem to see Jiang Yue smiling at him just now?
"Ningning, go wash your hands quickly, I made something delicious!" Jiang Yue's voice came from the kitchen again.
"Dad!" Ningning looked up at Gu Ye somewhat at a loss. This was the first time her mother smiled at her and she was so scared.
"Go wash your hands!" Gu Ye patted Ningning's little head. When he looked up again, his dark eyes were filled with coldness. He wanted to see what tricks Jiang Yue was going to play next!
There was a small washbasin next to the well, which was half filled with water. Ningning washed her hands in the basin and saw a towel on the stool next to her. She recognized it as Jiang Yue's towel and did not dare to move it.
Jiang Yue's voice came at the right time, "Ningning, dry your hands with a towel, you can come over and eat French fries now!"
French fries? Ningning was young after all, and when she heard that there was something delicious, plus she smelled a delicious aroma as soon as she entered the yard, she was actually drooling.
Jiang Yue came out with a plate and placed it on the small table in the yard. "The weather is nice today, let's eat outside!"
Gu Ye looked down at the strips on the plate and the red stuff in the small bowl next to it, and asked suspiciously, "What is this?"
"These are French fries and ketchup, very delicious!" Jiang Yue picked up a French fry, dipped it in the sauce and handed it to Ningning's mouth.
Ningning didn't open her mouth, but looked at Gu Ye.
Jiang Yue also looked at Gu Ye and saw that his brows were knitted and his handsome face was full of suspicion. She curled her lips speechlessly, "Why, are you afraid that I will poison you to death?"
Gu Ye suddenly raised his dark eyes, a hint of coldness flashing across them.
Jiang Yue's mouth twitched, and she decided to ignore Gu Ye's hostility. It was her fault for taking on the original body's identity as such a vicious female supporting role.
"This is fried potatoes!" She put the French fry directly into her mouth and ate it with a few crunches.
Jiang Yue had originally expected Gu Ye to praise her when he came back. Even if he didn't praise her, at least he shouldn't glare at her with such a cold and murderous look. She had worked so hard for the entire afternoon, wasn't she just trying to change her image in Gu Ye's mind?
In the end, neither the father nor the daughter appreciated it!
Still suspecting that she poisoned them?
Talking about what Jiang Yue did this afternoon, she first cleaned the yard and put the debris in order. She also sprinkled water because there was too much dust.
After finishing, she went to clean the house, sweep the floor, and dust. Seeing that it was getting late, she began to prepare dinner, but found that there were only a few potatoes, a handful of wilted shallots, and a few sprouted sweet potatoes left at home. Fortunately, she found a piece of dried bacon and a large cabbage, and then she was able to prepare the meal.
As a food blogger with tens of millions of fans, Jiang Yue makes full use of limited ingredients.
