The other side.
While helping Liu Genshun prepare water for washing his feet, Li Wenying thought about the scene she saw at Lin Jiaojiao's house during the day, and said thoughtfully.
"What does Ji Huaian's daughter-in-law do at home?"
"What are you asking? What does their family do have to do with you?"
Liu Genshun, who was reading a newspaper, immediately became annoyed when he heard this.
"If you have time, think more about your own family affairs!"
"Just two questions, is that enough?"
“As for!”
Bang!
Li Wenying threw the basin directly to the ground, splashing water all over the floor.
"Humph! Don't think I don't know what you men think about all day. You just like her type!"
Liu Genshun looked at the water splashing on him, stood up angrily and wanted to say something, but finally waved his hand helplessly and sat back down: "I don't want to talk to you."
"What? I hit the nail on the head!"
“…”
"I'm telling you, Ji Huaian's hard days are still ahead, just wait and see! That woman is obviously not a homemaker. I went to her house today, and she cooked several kilograms of meat for a meal. She used the fine fabrics as tablecloths instead of making clothes. If you want to marry a wife, you have to marry a virtuous woman who can endure hardships and work. Can a pretty face be eaten? A woman like Ji Huaian's who looks restless is only treasured by you men."
Liu Genshun walked towards the bedroom without even wiping his feet and putting on his shoes, too lazy to listen to her anymore.
…
In the early morning, Ji Linxue opened her eyes hazily and noticed her brother, who was still naked, struggling to crawl under the bed. "Xiao Feng!"
"Meat, sister, eat meat!"
“…” Ji Linxue smelled the fragrance lingering around her. The smell was different from last night.
Could it be that Aunt Jiaojiao has made something delicious again?
In the kitchen, Lin Jiaojiao put the noodles into the boiling pot.
I opened the casserole again and took a look at the braised meat inside. The moisture had been almost absorbed and the meat was soft and tasty.
Take it off the stove and set it aside for later.
Ji Huaian hugged Lin Jiaojiao from behind.
"Why don't you get some more sleep?"
Lin Jiaojiao felt the familiar warmth and smiled.
"I couldn't sleep, so I made braised pork noodles for you today."
"Is there anything I can do?"
"certainly!"
Lin Jiaojiao handed the prepared meat filling and kneaded dough to Ji Huaian.
"I'll leave the job of making xiaolongbao to you!"
"No problem." Ji Huaian immediately washed his hands and started working.
Lin Jiaojiao took out two more eggs.
Beat the egg liquid, add some salt, and prepare to steam the eggs.
"Aunt!"
A voice called from the door.
Lin Jiaojiao looked up and saw two furry little heads standing at the kitchen entrance, staring at them eagerly: "Why are you two up?"
"I want to eat! I'm hungry!"
Wang Xiaofeng couldn't wait to walk closer, and Ji Linxue hurriedly followed him, fearing that her brother would bump into something dangerous.
Only then did Lin Jiaojiao notice that they were already dressed.
"Who gave you clothes?"
"It's me."
Lin Jiaojiao looked at Ji Linxue in surprise. Seeing her lower her head shyly, she smiled and pinched her cheek: "Xiaoxue is so good. You wear your clothes very well."
“I’ll wear it for myself too!”
Ji Linxue was pleasantly surprised. She didn't expect Lin Jiaojiao to praise her for this. She immediately promised, "I will take care of my brother and dress him in the future."
Lin Jiaojiao pulled Ji Linxue over: "Auntie, that's not what I meant. You don't have to put it on him, but teach him how to put it on himself."
Ji Linxue nodded in confusion.
Wang Xiaofeng on the side actively participated: "Sister, teach me!"
Lin Jiaojiao was very pleased to see that the siblings had such a good relationship. She picked up two pieces of braised meat and stuffed them into their mouths: "Help Auntie taste it. Is it delicious?"
"tasty!"
“It’s delicious!”
The two little guys chewed the braised meat in their mouths and nodded excitedly and answered vaguely.
Lin Jiaojiao was amused by their little appearance.
I was just about to go and see how the egg custard was doing?
I noticed Ji Huaian's aggrieved look.
"What's wrong?"
"What about mine?"
“…”
Is this, acting coquettishly to her?
Such hair and such eyes.
It really looks like a...big golden retriever!
Lin Jiaojiao smiled and picked up a piece of braised meat and stuffed it into Ji Huaian's mouth.
"What do you think of the taste, Captain Ji?"
The meat is soft and melts in the mouth. The unique aroma of braised meat instantly spreads in Ji Huaian's mouth.
He didn't know how to describe it, and just nodded continuously at Lin Jiaojiao's expectant eyes.
Lin Jiaojiao smiled, brought out the egg custard and sprinkled a little sesame oil on it.
"Little guy, come and eat the custard."
In the kitchen, Ji Huaian was making dumplings while looking at the figures of one big and two small people in the living room. He felt that such a happy day was like a dream.
If possible, he really wants to live like this for the rest of his life!
After making the dumplings, Ji Huaian went to the yard to wash up.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Li Wenying peeking at me furtively from next door.
"Sister-in-law Wenying, what can I do for you?"
Li Wenying didn't seem embarrassed at all, instead she moved closer and asked.
"I smell the fragrance so early in the morning. Is your wife cooking something delicious again?
Thinking of Li Wenying coming to cause trouble again and again, and deliberately watching the fun and believing that his wife had never done any housework, Ji Huaian said proudly.
“Braised pork noodles and steamed buns!”
After saying that, he turned around and went back to the house.
Li Wenying was dumbfounded looking at Ji Huaian's back.
That’s all?
Why not treat her to something to eat?
Li Wenying walked in angrily.
"You're such a spendthrift! You think you're a treasure, but sooner or later you'll squander everything in your family!"
"Mom, I smell meat. I want to eat meat."
A seven-year-old fat boy came running in front of her. It was her son Dazhuang, who started pestering her for meat.
"We haven't eaten meat in a few days. Mom, please make it for me!"
"Get out of here!" Li Wenying was already annoyed, and when she heard her son wanted to eat meat, she became even angrier.
"You only know how to eat what you want. As a descendant of a soldier, you don't have any spirit of hardship and perseverance. How did I educate you?"
"But why can other people eat it? I want to eat it!"
"Are you still comparing yourself to others? That's what I taught you."
"Stingy! Mom is a stingy!"
"If you dare to talk nonsense to me again, I will beat you to death today!"
Li Wenying grabbed Dazhuang's collar and slapped him on the butt.
Da Zhuang felt pain and screamed.
Liu Genshun was about to go out when he saw this scene and hurried forward to stop it.
"Stop hitting me! How can you hit your son like this?"
"I'm taking care of my son! Why do you need to interfere here? Get out of here!"
"He's my son too."
Lin Jiaojiao's family of four were sitting around the dining table eating.
Lin Jiaojiao was very surprised when she heard the screams of the child next door, the quarrel between the couple, and the occasional sound of things being smashed.
