After Sheng Zexi agreed without hesitation, Gu Jianing gave him a thumbs up and couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
Sheng Zexi almost went crazy looking at his little wife's cute appearance.
His wife is so beautiful!
Just a little silly.
The silly wife probably doesn’t know yet, but for her, he specially went to find a chef to learn from for a period of time.
At that time, she was injured and was picked up by Gu Jianing. During the time she lived in Gu's house, he gradually fell in love with her. Although he later left without confessing his feelings because of infertility.
After returning, he wanted to try to stop thinking about Gu Jianing, but once his heart was moved, that beautiful figure began to haunt his soul and it would only become more and more serious. How could he possibly stop thinking about her?
After struggling and hesitating for half a year, Sheng Zexi finally decided to give himself a chance.
At that time, he wanted to go to Huaihua Village immediately to be with Gu Jianing, but he couldn't take leave at that time, so he could only hold it back for the time being.
It happened that I met a chef while on a mission at that time. I remembered that my future mother-in-law had mentioned before that Gu Jianing was picky about food but didn't like cooking.
She said she would find a husband for her who could cook in the future.
Sheng Zexi thought that if he could cook delicious food, his chances of success in proposing marriage would be higher.
So, after doing the chef a big favor and getting paid, Sheng Zexi would go and learn from the chef whenever he had time outside of his duties.
Not to mention that he was particularly talented in this area, and with his hard work, in the end, the chef wanted to take him in as an apprentice and even wanted to marry his granddaughter to him.
Sheng Zexi naturally refused. After learning that he was learning how to cook for the girl he liked, the chef gave him a thumbs up.
"To capture a woman's heart, you must first capture her stomach. It's great that you have this idea and the ability to act."
Back then, he relied on his excellent cooking skills to win the most beautiful girl in the area. Now, that girl has been with him for decades and has supported him for more than half of his life.
"Jianing, are you there?"
Just as he was thinking happily, a call from outside suddenly interrupted Sheng Zexi's thoughts.
"It should be Sister Shuwan. I'll go check it out." Gu Jianing recognized Zhang Shuwan's voice and hurried out and opened the door.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Zhang Shuwan with a smile on her face, and a bowl was handed to her.
"Jia Ning, you haven't eaten yet, right? I just made a plate of stir-fried cabbage and pork, and I wanted to bring you a bowl."
In the bowl in front of her, there was a lot of bacon piled on the cabbage, and the air was filled with a fragrant smell, which showed that Zhang Shuwan was also a good cook.
"How can this be possible, Sister Shu Wan, you should keep it for yourself and Guo Guo and the others." Gu Jianing knew that meat was always a rare commodity, and resources were scarce in the Northwest. How could he ask for other people's bacon?
"Hey, Jianing, don't refuse. Not to mention that you saved my Guoguo, I personally value people like you. I'm happy to give it to you, so just accept it."
After refusing several times, Gu Jianing finally couldn't refuse.
Thinking of something, Gu Jianing said, "Well, Sister Shu Wan, come in with me."
Um?
Zhang Shuwan was a little confused, and then was led by Gu Jianing towards the kitchen. Before she got close, she heard some movement inside and the smell of incense.
This is also cooking meat.
As soon as she entered the kitchen, she saw a tall figure wearing an apron, busying himself in front of the stove.
Looking closely, it turned out to be Sheng Zexi!
Oh my god! Captain Sheng is the one cooking in this house!
When Sheng Zexi raised his head, he saw Zhang Shuwan besides his wife, and nodded to her and said hello, "Sister Shuwan."
"Eh."
"Brother Xi, my sister-in-law sent us some stir-fried cabbage and bacon. Is your stir-fried rabbit ready? Serve some out as well."
Gu Jianing took her own bowl, poured out the stir-fried cabbage and pork with bacon that Zhang Shuwan gave her, and passed the bowl to Sheng Zexi.
Sheng Zexi: Don’t mention it, his stir-fried rabbit meat is just ready.
So, Sheng Zexi took the bowl and started to scoop up the rabbit meat.
Since his wife said she wanted to give it, he would not be reluctant to do so. Besides, it is just a matter of reciprocity.
"No need, Jianing, Captain Sheng, there's really no need." Zhang Shuwan saw that it was outrageous and quickly refused.
Gu Jianing would not allow her to refuse. Although she was not a generous person, she still understood the principle of reciprocity.
Moreover, she had a good impression of Zhang Shuwan's family of three.
"Sister Shu Wan, you just gave us the bacon, how can you refuse what I give you now?"
"If you refuse, I won't dare accept anything from you again."
As he spoke, Sheng Zexi had already prepared a bowl of rabbit meat and handed it to Gu Jianing.
Gu Jianing also gave Zhang Shuwan the bowl and the meat without hesitation, and walked out with her.
"Take it back, and let Guoguo and Captain Lin taste the cooking skills of my Captain Sheng."
"It smells good to me, so it should be good."
Gu Jianing had said so much, Zhang Shuwan had no choice but to accept it.
I just feel that Gu Jianing was treated too unfairly. The stir-fried cabbage with bacon she gave had only one-third to one-quarter of bacon at most, while this bowl of rabbit meat was filled to the brim with rabbit meat.
Zhang Shuwan felt that Gu Jianing was really good and a friend worth making.
Just before leaving, Zhang Shuwan pulled Gu Jianing aside and asked mysteriously, "In your family, is it Captain Sheng who cooks for you?"
Gu Jianing blinked his eyes, "Yes, I can't cook, but he said he likes to cook for me."
Zhang Shuwan: My goodness, this is the first time I meet a man who likes to cook.
Zhang Shuwan felt that Captain Sheng seemed to really love Jia Ning terribly.
If other people had seen what happened just now, they would have been as shocked as she was.
Zhang Shuwan didn't react until she returned home with the bowl.
"Didn't you go to deliver the food? Why are you bringing it back?" Lin Xing and Guo Guo had already set the table and were waiting for her to come back to eat.
When I looked up, I saw that she was still holding the bowl. I didn't know what she was thinking about, and she looked a little absent-minded.
Zhang Shuwan came to her senses immediately, put down her bowl and sat down.
"Look what this is?"
"This is rabbit meat. Jianing gave it to me."
"What? How can you want it!" Lin Xing frowned. This was too much rabbit meat.
"There's no way, I can't refuse. Jianing is a good person, and I will think about her so much in the future." Zhang Shuwan is not the type of person who likes to take advantage of others.
"Try this rabbit meat and see if it's delicious." Zhang Shuwan picked up a piece of rabbit meat and gave it to Lin Xing.
As for Guoguo, because the rabbit meat was added with chili peppers, it was not suitable for children to eat, so Zhang Shuwan rinsed the offal first to remove some of the spiciness before giving it to Guoguo.
Lin Xing picked it up casually and ate it. As soon as he put it in his mouth, he raised his eyes. It was delicious, with just the right salty and fragrant taste, and the spicy flavor whetted his appetite. Of course, it was meat, and who doesn't like meat?
