Recently, Jiang Yue and Gu Ye's relationship was not as tense as when she just came back from the provincial capital. It was still harmonious. So when Jiang Yue faced the angry Gu Ye, although she was a little scared, she knew that Gu Ye would not take action, so she didn't seem to be afraid.
"Or this, Gu Ye, if you really don't care, just drink the raw water, just don't do it in front of Ningning!" Jiang Yue took a step back.
She thought that a person's living habits were not so easy to change. Gu Ye's cognition and habits of more than 20 years could not be easily changed just because of her words. It would take some time.
And just as Gu Ye said, when he was out marching and fighting, as long as he had something to eat and drink, it didn't matter what it was, as long as it could save his life.
"Jiang Yue, you are just disliking me!" Gu Ye was very annoyed. What did she mean by asking him to drink raw water? What she said just now was so terrible, about parasites in the brain and hepatitis. Wasn't she afraid that he would get sick if he drank raw water?
After Gu Ye finished speaking, he let go of Jiang Yue's wrist, turned around and walked out, leaving Jiang Yue alone and confused.
What did she say wrong to make Gu Ye so angry?
Jiang Yue walked out of the kitchen and realized that she was still holding the gourd ladle in her hand, so she turned around and put it back into the water tank.
When she came out again, she saw Gu Ye standing in the main room, drinking water from a large enamel pot. Seeing Jiang Yue looking at him, Gu Ye turned away awkwardly to prevent her from looking.
Jiang Yue's mouth twitched. Wouldn't it have been better if he had just listened and drank boiled water earlier?
"Gu Ye, have you had lunch?" Jiang Yue decided not to bother with him because Gu Ye had worked hard to carry back cement and river sand.
"No!" Gu Ye said unhappily with his back turned.
"Ningning and I had dumplings for lunch. I didn't know you were coming back, so we didn't cook much. If you're hungry, eat first and I'll make more." Jiang Yue didn't go into the main room, but went straight to the well to pick up the unfinished meat filling and dough.
When Gu Ye entered the room, he saw Jiang Yue holding a plate of dumplings. He had only eaten two steamed buns in the morning and had been busy all morning, so he was already starving.
At that moment, Gu Ye didn't care that there were only seventeen or eighteen dumplings on the plate, seven or eight of which were very small, only slightly bigger than his fingernail, and he sat down and started eating.
Jiang Yue brought a dish of vinegar to Gu Ye.
Gu Ye lifted his eyelids and took a look, and couldn't help but complain: "Jiang Yue, the dumplings you made are too small, not even enough to fill the gaps between your teeth!"
Jiang Yue put the chopping board on the table, took out the dough and rolled it into long strips, "That's what Ningning made!"
Gu Ye raised his eyebrows, very surprised, "Ningning can make dumplings? Did you teach her?"
Jiang Yue rolled out the dumpling wrappers while saying, "Yes, Ningning is very smart. She can learn it once she is taught!"
She called out to the room again: "Ningning, Daddy is back, stop reading and come out quickly, let's make more dumplings!"
At this moment, Gu Ye was distracted by the dumplings Ning Ning was making.
Jiang Yue wrapped up all the remaining meat filling, and Gu Ye ate most of it by himself. After eating, he said he had other things to do in the regiment, so he put on his hat and left.
Before leaving, Gu Ye told Jiang Yue that he would not come back to sleep for the next two nights as he was going to lead his troops to guard the dam to prevent it from bursting due to too much water.
Jiang Yue has a small radio, and she listens to the news and weather forecast when she has nothing to do.
The weather forecast did say that it would rain in the next few days. Jiang Yue was very worried when she heard that. Firstly, if it rained, the yard would turn into a mud pond again. Secondly, if the weather was bad all the time, she would not be able to go to the county town to sell French fries, and would earn four yuan less a day. It would be a huge loss!
It rained for three days in a row. During this time, Gu Ye came back once to take a shower and change clothes. Seeing that there was not much firewood left, he chopped some wood and fetched water to fill the water tank.
However, Gu Ye came back in the middle of the night, Jiang Yue and Ning Ning had already fallen asleep, and he was chopping firewood in the backyard, so Jiang Yue didn't hear any sound at all.
The next morning, Jiang Yue got up and saw that the water tank was full and the firewood was piled up behind the stove. If she hadn't seen Gu Ye's clothes hanging out to dry, she would have thought that a snail girl had come to the house.
Two days later, the sky finally cleared up. Jiang Yue went to the river and saw that the water level had dropped a lot. She thought Gu Ye should be back.
Counting the days, Jiang Yue has been in the book for more than twenty days. If the plot develops according to the rules, Pei Xueyun will appear in a week.
When she thought about Pei Xueyun and Gu Ye meeting, and that they were the hero and heroine of the book, Jiang Yue became irritable for no reason. When she was irritable, she couldn't stay at home, so she simply fried all the remaining potatoes and sweet potatoes at home.
"Ningning, let's go to the county town to sell French fries!" Jiang Yue decided to turn his annoyance into motivation to make money.
Ningning and Jiang Yue stayed at home for the past few days and didn't go anywhere. They were almost bored to death. When she heard that she could go to the county town to sell French fries, Ningning immediately and happily packed snacks into her small bag.
Before going out, Jiang Yue glanced at the bicycle parked in the main room and sighed. It had been raining every day these days and she had no chance to practice riding a bicycle.
Maybe because it had been raining for days and it suddenly cleared up today, there were many more people on the streets of the county town than usual, especially in the vegetable market, which was crowded and even more lively than a market day.
As soon as Jiang Yue put down the backpack, someone came over to buy French fries.
"Girl, you're finally out of business! You don't know, my little grandson is making so much noise that he wants me to die. He insisted that I take him to buy French fries from you!"
The person who was speaking was the auntie who had asked Jiang Yue for the secret recipe for delicious French fries last time, and who got angry and said she would never buy Jiang Yue’s French fries again after being rejected.
Jiang Yue didn't show any strange expression on her face towards a customer like the auntie who said she hated the customer but acted honestly. She showed a standard service smile and said with a smile: "Auntie, since you are so supportive, I will give you more food today without raising the price!"
The auntie was immediately happy when she heard this, "You are a good girl, I will buy your fries next time!"
