After saying this, Lu Qingdai stood up and left.
She had already said everything she needed to say, so there was no need for her to stay and be questioned by Fang Xiaoxue.
Fang Xiaoxue looked at Lu Qingdai's back as she left, and suddenly had a new idea about her purpose.
It seems that Lu Qingdai is hiding something from her.
Fang Xiaoxue looked at the empty door, thought about it, and decided to leave the matter to Qin An.
She doesn't have many connections, so she might not be able to find out, but her cousin does.
Qin An loves her so much, as long as she asks, he will definitely help her, right?
In the evening, Chang Suisui had already started packing up before it was time to get off work.
In the afternoon, she heard Xie Yu say that he would invite some comrades to his home for dinner in the evening.
He had already eaten with them once when he returned to the team.
But this time it is mainly about the renovation of the family compound.
Before Chang Suisui came, the house they live in now was cleaned and decorated by several comrades-in-arms.
So the two of them planned to invite them to their home for dinner in the next two days.
They were all acquaintances from Hongqi Town, so Chang Suisui didn't feel awkward.
In addition, she placed the fish, meat and other items in the space in the kitchen before going to work.
There is no need for her to go out to buy groceries anymore.
She thought that she could go back early and help out.
What she didn't expect was that as soon as she got home, she smelled the aroma of sautéed green onions wafting from the kitchen.
"Uh... why are you back so early?"
Chang Suisui stared blankly at Xie Yu who was busy in the kitchen, feeling a little confused.
But she quickly reacted and started rolling up her sleeves as she walked towards the kitchen.
"Go sit in the yard. You don't need to be busy here." Xie Yu gently hugged her waist from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder, and said in a low and gentle voice, "You don't need to do anything today."
Chang Suisui looked back at him and smiled helplessly: "With so many people coming soon, can you handle it all by yourself?"
"Don't worry." Xie Yu hugged Chang Suisui's slender waist and coaxed her gently, grabbing a handful of snacks from the table and stuffing them into her hands. "Your task now is to eat some snacks, don't worry about anything else."
There was a hint of doting in his tone, "Let those brats do the work over here later."
As he spoke, he stuffed his palms with fruit leather as usual.
The oil paper package glowed honey-colored in the sun. The man's rough thumb rubbed across her fingertips: "This is what Dali bought after waiting in line for half an hour at the service center. Would you like to try it?"
Chang Suisui was so embarrassed by him that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She could only obediently open a fruit leather and put it in her mouth.
Different from the Keji and Henhuo she had eaten before, the taste of this fruit leather was very pure, with only a strong hawthorn flavor.
The taste is actually sandy.
She raised her eyebrows in surprise and actually thought it was quite delicious.
Xie Yu looked at her expression with satisfaction, took her hand, and placed her in the rocking chair under the grape vines.
"Be good, just wait here for dinner."
Chang Suisui looked at the pile of snacks in her hand, then looked at Xie Yu who had returned to the kitchen, feeling a little amused and helpless.
It seems that she can only wait for others to arrive before she can join the main group.
As Chang Suisui was thinking about it, people came to his door one after another.
"Hello, sister-in-law!"
"Hello, sister-in-law!"
"Hello, sister-in-law!"
…
Voices came one after another at the door. Wang Dali, Zhou Qiang, Qian Weimin and others put down the things they brought with a smile, then rolled up their sleeves and went into the kitchen.
Chang Suisui was just about to get up and follow them when he heard a few people speaking.
"Sister-in-law, please don't cook. We are here, so why would you do it?"
"That's right. Even the team leader is reluctant to let you do the work, so we dare not let you, sister-in-law, do it."
"Sister-in-law, your hands are only for curing illnesses and saving lives. Last time, my legs hurt so much that I used the ointment you gave me, and I was healed the next day. A miracle doctor like you, you must protect your hands well!"
…
Chang Suisui felt a little embarrassed by what they said and her face turned a little red.
It’s not like she hasn’t been praised before, but people of this generation are more simple and honest, and when they praise others, they are really straightforward.
Especially when so many people praised others directly, she found it a bit overwhelming.
Just as she was about to speak, Xie Yu poked his head out from the kitchen and said, "Stop talking nonsense and get back to work. Don't disturb your sister-in-law's rest."
When Xie Yu glared at them, those people immediately shrank their necks and ran into the kitchen with a smile on their faces to busy themselves.
Seeing Chang Suisui’s red cheeks, Xie Yu couldn’t help but curl the corners of his mouth.
He pulled her under the grape vines again, reached out and picked up a piece of fruit candy in her hand, peeled off the candy wrapper and handed it to her lips. The mint flavor mixed with the metallic smell of the gun callus on his palm.
Chang Suisui was about to hide, but he grabbed her waist and pulled her into his arms, "Be good and wait here. Don't run around. Do you understand? There are too many people in the kitchen and it's hard to hurt you."
His breath swept across the kiss mark on her neck that had not yet faded, causing Chang Suisui to tremble slightly.
She stretched out her little hand and pushed Xie Yu, "You, don't mess around, there are so many people here."
Xie Yu couldn't help but let out a low laugh, "Well, no messing around."
His voice is very charming, especially when he speaks softly, it always gives people a very affectionate feeling.
Chang Suisui's small hands grasped Xie Yu's sleeves, and she spoke uncertainly, "Is it really okay for me not to do any work?"
Xie Yu knelt in front of her and looked up. The sunlight shone through the gaps in the grape vines, dyeing his eyebrows and eyes golden.
"Doctor Chang will be their lifesaver many times in the future. Is it okay to ask them to serve a meal today?"
Several people in the kitchen were working while whispering, "Look at the captain and his wife, they are so close. I used to think that the captain was not interested in women and would never find a wife. I didn't expect him to dote on his wife so much."
"That's right, the captain used to be known as a cold-faced devil, but I didn't expect that he was like a completely different person in front of my sister-in-law."
"The captain's doting on his wife is really disgusting!"
"Of course not. When my sister-in-law wasn't here, our leader was in such a state, working himself to death. Now that my sister-in-law is here, well...tsk tsk..."
"Only a fairy like my sister-in-law can bring the captain down from the altar!"
…
Although their discussions were quiet, they still reached Xie Yu's ears.
He raised his head, glanced at them coldly, and said in a low voice with a hint of warning: "Just work, and stop talking nonsense. If you keep talking nonsense, you won't be able to eat today's meal."
When his comrades were glared at, they immediately shut their mouths and lowered their heads to work obediently, but they could not hide the smiles on their lips.
Is their leader shy?
The voices that scolded them all lacked confidence. As expected, she is worthy of being their sister-in-law, she is so awesome!
Take control of their leader in minutes!
