Chapter 347: Better off than a landlord’s wife
They exchanged a few more pleasantries before going home.
Jian Qingyi wanted to eat noodle soup, and Wang Ma was rolling noodles at home.
Seeing Jian Qingyi and the others coming back, she immediately put in some oil and started cooking.
The old man came back in a hurry before the noodles were even put into the pot.
As soon as he got home, he started setting up the chess game.
Seeing that Aunt Wang was not available, Qin Mengjie got up and went to make tea for the old man.
"Yi Yi, come here and help grandpa. How should I make this move?" The old man lowered his head and arranged the chessboard without raising his head.
Jian Qingyi stood up and walked over with a smile.
From walking birds and fishing, to making sugar figures and painting Chinese paintings, to growing flowers and vegetables.
The old man has a wide range of interests.
Recently, Grandpa and Grandpa Zhou have become obsessed with playing Go again.
The two old men would get together after dinner when they had nothing to do.
Jian Qingyi lowered his head and looked at the chessboard carefully before placing a move.
In an instant, the chess game changed drastically.
Although he was in a desperate situation, this one move turned the whole game around.
"Good, good, this is a good outcome..."
When Qin Mengjie came out with tea, she saw the old man pointing at the chess board and praising it repeatedly.
"Mom, what's wrong with Dad?" She smiled and put the tea where the old man usually sat.
"Your dad has recently become obsessed with playing Go. Whenever he encounters a game he doesn't know how to play, he comes back to ask Yi Yi to teach him." The old lady smiled as she watched the grandparents and grandchildren chatting about Go on the balcony.
"Yi Yi can also play Go?" Qin Mengjie had never seen Jian Qingyi play Go.
"He's much better than your father and Old Man Zhou." The old lady said proudly.
How could the granddaughter-in-law she personally chose be any worse?
Qin Mengjie was very happy to hear the old lady praising her daughter-in-law like that.
After the noodle soup was out of the pot, Qin Mengjie went to the balcony and called the grandparents and grandchildren to come in for dinner.
Perhaps because she was worried that the vegetarian noodle soup was not nutritious, Wang Ma also added beef into it.
The sweet and sour taste of tomatoes paired with the tender and refreshing beef is simply amazing.
It was the first time that Jian Qingyi had eaten noodle soup prepared in this way, and she ate two bowls in one go.
Wang Ma was so happy that she showed her big white teeth.
Although she is pregnant, Jian Qingyi's appetite is not much better than before she was pregnant.
So Wang Ma always tried her best to make delicious food for her.
But her appetite has always been lukewarm.
In order to get her to eat more, Wang Ma, the old lady, the old man, Qin Mengjie, Lu Yujing, and Lu Yaozong really racked their brains.
It was the first time they saw her adding more rice, and they were all very happy.
The old man was so happy that he ate half a bowl of noodle soup.
This almost made Qin Mengjie drop her jaw.
The old man, Lu Yaozong, and Lu Yujing don't like sweet and sour food very much. Knowing their tastes, Aunt Wang rarely cooks sweet and sour dishes on weekdays.
It was not until Jian Qingyi came into the family that sweet and sour dishes began to appear on the Lu family's dining table.
When Jian Qingyi became pregnant, she began to prefer sweet and sour meals, and sweet and sour dishes completely occupied the Lu family's dining table.
At first, the old man, Lu Yaozong, Lu Yujing and others tried to avoid sour and sweet dishes with their chopsticks.
I don’t know when it started, but the three of them also started trying sweet and sour dishes.
But it's just an attempt.
The old man actually ate two bowls of sweet and sour noodle soup today, which was something Qin Mengjie and the old lady had not expected.
"Auntie Wang's cooking skills are getting better and better." After putting down his bowl and chopsticks, the old man did not forget to praise her.
As soon as they put down their dishes and went to the living room, the phone rang.
Jian Qingyi was sitting next to the phone and picked it up.
"Hello……"
"Wife..." Lu Yujing on the other end of the phone was obviously happy when he heard the voice of his young wife.
Jian Qingyi was used to sleeping in, so Lu Yujing rarely called home in the morning.
When the people nearby heard Lu Yujing's voice, they all pricked up their ears.
"Have you eaten?" Lu Yujing asked in a gentle voice.
"I have. The noodle soup that Aunt Wang made today was delicious. It's a pity that you didn't have the chance to enjoy it. Have you eaten?" Jian Qingyi did not forget to ask him.
If noodle soup could be stored for a long time, Jian Qingyi would have wanted to send a bowl to Lu Yujing.
"I have. The sweet and sour pork tenderloin made in the cafeteria today is also very delicious. I will bring you here to eat it next time." Lu Yujing's voice was filled with a tender and gentle smile.
"Okay!" Jian Qingyi agreed readily.
"Oh, by the way! Wife, the military district will be showing a movie on the training ground tonight. Do you want to come and watch it?"
Worried that his young wife would be bored staying at home all day, Lu Yujing called home as soon as he heard that the military district would show a movie in the evening.
"Yes!" Jian Qingyi didn't want to watch a movie, she just wanted to go with a crowd.
Ever since she became pregnant, the old lady has been keeping a close eye on her.
Jian Liqiu's miscarriage made the old lady even more alert.
She really wanted to go out and get some fresh air.
"Then I'll ask my brother to pick you up later." Lu Yujing's pleasant laughter came from the other end of the microphone.
"Come to my lounge for a nap. I'll ask Yunlai to bring you dinner in the evening. We haven't seen each other for a long time..." The person on the other end of the phone was still chattering.
"Grandpa, grandma, mom, do you want to go to the military area to watch a movie?" Jian Qingyi hurriedly interrupted Lu Yujing, worried that he would say something unpleasant.
"Go!" The old lady was the first to speak up. She had originally not planned to go, as her grandson was looking after her grandson's wife.
But I can hear what the other end of the phone is saying...
She suddenly felt that it was a little too early to let go.
As a grandmother, how could she not know what kind of personality her grandson has?
Just because the lights on the second floor were on until late at night, she couldn't trust him.
The old man and Qin Mengjie seemed to have thought of something and nodded.
Only then did Lu Yujing on the other end of the phone realize that there were many people sitting around his young wife.
"Don't let my eldest brother come to pick me up. I'll go there with grandpa, grandma, mom and others later." Jian Qingyi said to the person on the other end of the phone.
"Okay, then I'll wait for you...." Lu Yujing agreed with a smile.
After hanging up the phone, the old man and the old lady went back to the house to change clothes.
Half an hour later, the old man's car entered the gate of the military area.
Lu Yujing also received the news immediately.
When the car arrived at the office building, Lu Yujing was already waiting downstairs.
After the car stopped, he went forward and opened the door for his young wife.
He carefully helped his young wife out of the car.
As soon as Jian Qingyi became pregnant, the old man replaced his jeep with a sedan so that it would be easier for Jian Qingyi to get in and out of the car.
Many people were secretly wondering whether Jian Qingyi was pregnant with Qin Shi Huang.
When other people's wives are pregnant, they do housework as they should, and go to work as they should. They are the same as they were before and after pregnancy.
As soon as the daughter-in-law of the Lu family became pregnant, she stopped studying and working, and stayed at home all day long.
Even if I go out for a walk, the old lady, Qin Mengjie and Aunt Wang will take care of me closely.
Even the landlord wives in the old society didn’t enjoy life as well as she did!
