Chapter 42 First he praised his ability, then he praised his strength



It was summer, and mosquitoes were beginning to wreak havoc. Jiang Yue smoked wormwood in the yard and lit a mosquito coil to repel mosquitoes.

Gu Ye brought out the stir-fried vegetables and heard Jiang Yue shouting, "Gu Ye, open your mouth!"

Something was brought to Gu Ye's mouth. It smelled delicious. Gu Ye lowered his eyes and saw that it was a small piece of melon.

He raised his eyes again, and saw Jiang Yue looking at him with a smile. Her fair and tender face was rosy and there was no sign of yellowness at all.

Gu Ye hesitated for a moment before he opened his mouth and bit the melon. Instantly, a cool feeling rushed to the top of his head. Gu Ye felt as if all the heat in his limbs was relieved at this moment.

"Is it sweet?" Jiang Yue saw Gu Ye eating the melon she fed him, and her big eyes curved into crescents with joy.

"Um."

"I put it in the well water and kept it cold, waiting for you to come back and eat it!" Jiang Yue took the dish from Gu Ye and put it on the table, "You can eat now!"

As the sun was setting and the breeze was blowing gently in the evening, Jiang Yue was picking at the rice in her small bowl, occasionally stealing a glance at Gu Ye through the edge of the bowl.

Today she specially made fried pork with chili peppers. She wanted to see Gu Ye's reaction when he ate this dish.

Gu Ye discovered that Jiang Yue was looking at him secretly again, but when he looked up, he saw Jiang Yue eating with her eyes lowered, her expression couldn't be more normal.

However, Gu Ye believed in his intuition. He had always been sensitive to vision, and his feeling was not wrong. Jiang Yue was observing him!

Seeing Gu Ye looking over, Jiang Yue pretended to be concerned, "Gu Ye, why don't you eat anymore? Is the food not to your taste?"

Gu Ye: “…No!” The dishes she cooked were all to his taste, especially yesterday’s fried chili with oil residue and today’s fried pork with chili, both were delicious and were the best chili he had ever eaten.

"Oh, that's good!" Jiang Yue pretended to be relieved and smiled with the corners of her eyes curved, "Gu Ye, what other dishes do you like to eat? See if I can cook it."

Gu Ye thought about it and actually named a few dishes.

"Squirrel fish, Dongpo pork, I know how to cook all of these!" Jiang Yue's eyes lit up. She could now appreciate the benefits of her years of personally learning all these skills as a blogger.

Food is the first necessity of people. No matter how handsome a male protagonist is, he still needs to eat!

Jiang Yue's first step to win Gu Ye's favor by being a cook actually paid off!

Not only did Gu Ye go home on time for dinner every day, he could also sit at the same table with her calmly.

The two continued to eat, and Jiang Yue continued to observe Gu Ye quietly. As a result, this time Gu Ye suddenly raised his eyes, and Jiang Yue didn't have time to retract his gaze and was caught red-handed.

Gu Ye's eyes are beautiful, but his expression is unruly and he always looks at people coldly. Jiang Yue was suddenly met with Gu Ye's cold and scrutinizing eyes and was immediately startled.

"Do you have something to tell me?" Gu Ye put down his chopsticks and his handsome face became serious.

Jiang Yue nodded subconsciously, thought about it, and quickly shook her head. How could she really tell Gu Ye what she was thinking?

However, Jiang Yue observed for two days and found that Gu Ye was a normal person when eating chili peppers. Apart from a little sweat, he did not have red eyes as described in the book. He stared blankly at the dish in front of him, then looked up at the heroine with complicated and grateful eyes. He decided that it was her...

So what went wrong?

"Jiang Yue!" Gu Ye didn't believe that Jiang Yue was okay. Who would look at someone like that if nothing happened, and even secretly watched her for two days!

"Actually, I want to ask you, have you told Sister Zhao anything?" When Jiang Yue saw Gu Ye's attitude, she knew that her behavior had aroused his suspicion. She also wanted to ask him if he knew what Sister Zhao meant by what she said to her in the morning.

When Jiang Yue told Gu Ye about this, Gu Ye's expression became strange, "Sister Zhao taught you to fight with me?"

Jiang Yue nodded vigorously, fearing that Gu Ye would not believe her, and repeated what Sister Zhao had said, "Sister Zhao told me that I should feel sorry for your man who works hard to support the family, but I can't listen to him in everything. For example, if you want to do something, and I don't want to do that, I should firmly refuse!"

"She also said that if necessary, we will use our fists to let you men know how powerful we women are! If we can't beat you, we will capture you..."

Gu Ye: "Wait! What is that?"

Jiang Yue spread her hands, "I don't know! I also asked Sister Zhao, but she wouldn't tell me!"

After hearing what Jiang Yue said, Gu Ye's expression became even weirder. He remembered what Captain Zhao said to him when he met him during the field training in the morning. Captain Zhao first praised him for his ability, then praised him for being strong, and said that he was still so strong in his twenties. Before leaving, he also said something inexplicably about his sister-in-law's poor health and asked him to take it easy...

The corner of Gu Ye's mouth twitched, and he seemed to understand what Sister Zhao was talking about.

At the same time, as soon as Captain Zhao entered the house, he was pulled into the room by Sister-in-law Zhao.

"Did you remind Gu Ye today?" Mrs. Zhao asked in a low voice.

"I told you!"

"What did you say?" Mrs. Zhao asked again.

"What else can I say? That's what I said!" Captain Zhao took off his green military uniform, wearing only a military green vest underneath, and grabbed an enamel cup to drink water. "Look at you, aren't you worrying too much about the affairs of this young couple?"

"I'm just happy to see Jiang Yue getting better. Don't you want Jiang Yue and Gu Ye to live a good life?" Sister Zhao took over Captain Zhao's sweaty and smelly military uniform, took out the things in the pocket, and took off the red collar badge, intending to wash it.

"Of course I hope Gu Ye can live well!" Captain Zhao put down his water cup and said seriously, "If Gu Ye hadn't pulled me away on the battlefield, the shell would have landed on me and I would have been blown into pieces!"

When talking about those years, Captain Zhao still feels scared.
