Since Lin Yanbai was in a very good mood, she decided to show off her cooking skills today.
Looking at the whole chicken sent by Aunt Shen in the kitchen, she called Gu Xingfan, cut it into pieces, marinated it with cooking wine, added a lot of chili peppers, and stir-fried a spicy big plate chicken.
He kneaded the dough again, pulled some noodles, and cooked them. The aroma was so fragrant that it could be said to be spread ten miles away. Gu Xingfan took the pot out with him. The two of them ate without even looking up. Their lips were swollen from the spiciness, but their hands did not stop moving.
Gu Xingfan can be said to have thoroughly practiced the "Clean Plate" campaign. At the end of the meal, Lin Yanbai subconsciously looked at his flat stomach. This thing is like a bottomless pit!
After dinner, Gu Xingfan washed the dishes. When the two of them were walking in the yard to digest their food, they heard someone knocking on the yard door. The voice sounded urgent. Seeing that it was getting late, and why did they come at this time, Gu Xingfan guessed that the bathtub must be ready!
As he expected, as soon as the door opened, the people standing outside rushed in. The last person who came in looked outside cautiously, and only closed the door after seeing that there was no one in the alley.
"Uncle Zheng, what you did is like fighting an underground war!" Gu Xingfan teased.
The old Zheng standing opposite had an honest and kind face. Upon hearing this, he said angrily, "You're teasing me, kid! Others don't have the blessing of door-to-door delivery. It was only because you said you were in a hurry that day that I worked overtime to make it for you!"
After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Lin Yanbai who was standing beside him: "This is my niece's wife, right? Don't be offended. Since this guy calls me Uncle Zheng, I will also be so arrogant as to call you my niece's wife!"
"Uncle Zheng, you're welcome. Isn't it only natural for you to call me your niece-in-law?"
Seeing that Lin Yanbai and Uncle Zheng were chatting, Gu Xingfan and the equally honest-looking man following behind Uncle Zheng worked together to slowly move the bathtub into the room.
Uncle Zheng gazed at the two men's busy backs with a kind look. After a long moment, he spoke to Lin Yanbai earnestly, "Gu is a good kid. Don't look at him like this now. When he was little, he was a bit chubby but very obedient... Back then, the kids in the compound always bullied him because he had no parents. After being bullied so much, he learned to protect himself with his fists...
In fact, he still retains the kindness of his childhood. If others treat him well, he will be twice as kind to them... A few days ago, he rushed to my house and said that his wife wanted a bathtub. Seeing him sweating profusely, I knew he was in trouble. This time we came here, and we also wanted to see you..."
Lin Yanbai knew exactly why Uncle Zheng said this to her. Looking at the busy figures in the room, she said firmly, "Uncle Zheng, don't worry. Since I'm marrying him, I'm definitely going to be with him for life!"
Hearing this, Uncle Zheng smiled with satisfaction, took the cigarette from his ear and brought it to his nose to smell it. It must be said that the cigarettes this kid gave him were really good. It was worth it for him to work overtime these two days, and his old waist was almost broken from fatigue.
The two of them didn't stay long. After putting down the tub, they said goodbye. Gu Xingfan took Lin Yanbai to look at the finished tub. The edge of the tub was polished without a single burr, and the height and size were just right. Don't underestimate this simple job, it is a test of craftsmanship!
"Uncle Zheng is a famous carpenter in our area. He's been doing carpentry since Grandpa Zheng's generation. Although he can't do it openly now, people in the neighborhood still look to him for furniture!"
Lin Yan understood clearly that the craftsmanship was indeed good. Touching the smooth edge of the bucket, she suddenly had an idea.
Gu Xingfan seemed to sense what she was thinking and asked, "Do you want to try it? I'll get you some hot water!"
After saying that, without waiting for Lin Yanbai's answer, he went straight to the kitchen to boil water. After all, his wife's big watery eyes revealed only one message: she wanted to take a bath!
With Gu Xingfan's service, Lin Yanbai finally took her first hot bath since coming to this world. She put some bath salts into the water very ritualistically, but didn't dare put too much for fear that Gu Xingfan would notice.
Meimei soaked in the water for a long time before she was willing to come out. When Gu Changgong saw that she had finished soaking, he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to pour water. As a result, he smelled the faint fragrance as soon as he entered the door. He paused, and started working as if nothing had happened the next second.
Lin Yanbai lay comfortably on the bed. She had just taken a hot bath and felt lazy all over. It seemed as if she was about to fall into a sweet dream. If she didn't pay attention to the people who kept disturbing her...
"Stop it, I'm so sleepy!"
The cry of "Wife~" was full of twists and turns. Look at the aggrieved tone in the words!
Although Lin Yanbai didn't say anything, his refusal was already quite obvious...
The next day, Lin Yanbai had a sour face. Obviously, she couldn't bear it in the end... If men's words were credible, even sows would climb trees.
Someone also knew that he had annoyed his wife, so he did all kinds of flattering things in the morning, and almost shouted "Hey" behind her.
Watching Gu Xingfan escorting Lin Yanbai all the way to the desk, and after he poured hot water for her like a servile servant, he still lingered and refused to leave, so Lin Yanbai forced him to leave!
Watching the 5'8" tall Gu Xingfan leave in frustration, Qiao Linxiu teased, "Ah, it's true that a prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold. Look at the treatment he's received, he's instantly become the boss of the family!"
He walked up to her, winked, and said, "Everyone in the factory used to say your husband wasn't suitable for marriage, that he was too wild and didn't care about the family. But now I think this is a good thing. I'm actually enjoying it!"
Listening to Qiao Linxiu's joke, Lin Yanbai simply threw in the towel and said, "Our Gu Xingfan is already so good, isn't he? He's so considerate. It's just that they lack vision. It's too late to regret it now!"
Take the shameless path and leave others with no way to go! Listening to Lin Yanbai's self-praise, Qiao Linxiu was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing and patted Lin Yanbai on the shoulder: "Well done, I like your character!"
The two chatted for a while, and when they saw that Zhao Xishan hadn't come to work yet, Lin Yanbai casually asked, "Sister Lin Xiu, why hasn't Brother Xishan come yet? It's been a while since we started working!"
"He's on a business trip to Shanghai. He won't be back for a few days. We're probably the only two in the office these days, so we'll probably be busy!"
It's nothing. She hasn't been here for a few days, but she has a pile of manuscripts waiting to be written. She can only accept her fate and get busy. The manuscripts are easier to write at this time. She quotes some quotations from great men, the contents of government orders, etc., praises the vast majority of working people, and finally expresses her own beautiful aspirations. Bingo, done!
It seems that listening to the radio news these past two days was not in vain. When I was writing, my ideas were pouring out like a spring, and I wrote as if inspired by God!
