Chapter 31 Private Dinner During
dinner, Shi Tingyu told her about what happened to Aunt Lu today.
Lu Weiguo paused while picking up the food, put down his bowl and chopsticks and said, "It's okay. Just refuse this kind of thing next time."
Shi Tingyu smiled and said, "I refused."
Lu Weiguo thought about it and felt that he still had to give his wife a tip. Some old ladies were very difficult to deal with because they were very nagging.
His wife was thin-skinned and couldn't agree to it without saving face.
"Next time if you meet someone who won't give in, just let them come to me. Just say that you can't make the decision and push it to me."
Shi Tingyu was interested now.
"Can you still deal with those women?"
"Of course I can." Lu Weiguo's voice dropped a little.
"If Aunt Lu comes to see you, how will you get rid of her?"
Lu Weiguo's expression was strange for a moment, and he said, "Just now... Aunt Lu came to see me."
Shi Tingyu raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that the old lady actually came to see Lu Weiguo. "Isn't she afraid of you?" "
Maybe... I'm afraid." Thinking of the old lady's timid look at that time, Lu Weiguo was not sure.
Shi Tingyu became interested, "Tell me in detail what happened at that time."
Lu Weiguo tried to organize his words for a long time and said, "I rejected her."
Shi Tingyu moved the chair towards him, "Tell me in detail."
Lu Weiguo clenched the chopsticks in his hand a little uncomfortably and recounted the experience of meeting Aunt Lu during the training.
When she heard that the other party could save money by letting Aunt Lu's daughter prepare the meal, she laughed out loud.
Lu Weiguo was puzzled by her laughter, "What's wrong? You can't say that?"
"No, no." Shi Tingyu fully affirmed his response to Aunt Lu, "You did a very good job. The knife didn't cut their flesh, so they didn't feel the pain. It was only when it came to you that you felt the pain."
Lu Weiguo looked at her crescent-shaped eyes, and his chest was restless.
It was true that only when the knife cut himself did he feel the pain.
When he heard Aunt Lu's words, he felt uncomfortable. Didn't the knife fall on him?
Shi Tingyu picked up a piece of food for her with chopsticks, "A reward for you."
Lu Weiguo looked at the extra food in the bowl with a slightly stunned expression.
Normally, Shi Tingyu seldom picked up food for him. He could see clearly that the few times she picked up food for him were when she had no chopsticks before eating, or when she used the serving chopsticks directly.
This was the first time she used the chopsticks she had used before to pick up food for him.
Suddenly, he felt that the invisible barrier between the two of them was less.
"Why don't you eat?" Shi Tingyu asked curiously after seeing him not moving for a long time.
"Oh, I'll eat it right away." With that, Lu Weiguo finished the food she picked up in just two or three bites.
Shi Tingyu didn't notice the difference in the way she picked up food.
When she was at her mother's house, she was not the kind of person who would use serving chopsticks to pick up food.
Unless there were guests.
Although she and Lu Weiguo were married, they had only known each other for a short time and were not married yet, not even kissing each other. She subconsciously used serving chopsticks when picking up food.
And she didn't pick up food very often.
This time, she followed her heart and didn't think too much, so naturally she didn't find the problem.
But Lu Weiguo found that few people in the current family used serving chopsticks, and at first he thought his wife was a particular person.
But then he remembered the few times he had dinner with the Shi family, his wife didn't use serving chopsticks when picking up food for the Shi family.
So he has always been very concerned.
Now that he is suddenly treated the same as the Shi family, you can imagine how happy he is.
Shi Tingyu watched him finish the dish, picked up another piece of food for him, and asked with interest: "I didn't go to earn the two yuan, you really don't mind?"
Lu Weiguo glanced at her and lowered his sharp brows, "What are you thinking about? If you don't like to do it, you don't have to do it."
"Don't even mention two yuan, even two hundred won't do it."
Lu Weiguo said the last sentence in a low voice, but Shi Tingyu still heard it.
She smiled and said, "If she really gives me two hundred, then I can really do it."
Lu Weiguo looked at her and saw her rare money-obsessed look, and said softly, "No, I'll give you all my wages."
Shi Tingyu was a little flustered by his look. She touched her earlobe as a gesture, coughed lightly and said, "Okay, let's eat quickly."
Lu Weiguo nodded and ate quickly.
Because the two of them were a little close, Shi Tingyu's hand holding the chopsticks would always touch Lu Weiguo's arm, but the man just watched and didn't want to distance himself. It was not
until the end of the meal that Shi Tingyu realized that the two of them were a little close when she stood up.
She pretended to be calm and sent the bowl and chopsticks to the well, and made excuses for her slowness.
Sure enough, gossip is the most advantageous weapon to bring people closer.
Look, they are chatting and talking about the same thing.
Lu Weiguo followed behind Shi Tingyu to the well to wash the dishes every day.
Shi Tingyu did not go back to the house. She looked at the sky full of sunset glow and pressed some water for Lu Weiguo from time to time for him to wash the dishes.
As she pressed the water, Shi Tingyu's mind flew far away.
She said, "Weiguo, it's summer now and it gets dark late. If it's winter, don't we have to run a wire in the yard to connect a light? Otherwise, we won't be able to see clearly when we wash the dishes."
Lu Weiguo's movements were very neat. While washing the dishes, he said, "Okay, I'll do it when the time comes."
It is said that men and women work together and don't get tired. The two of them cooperated and quickly washed the dishes.
After washing the dishes, Lu Weiguo boiled water for Shi Tingyu to take a bath.
There is a public bathroom in their camp, but now the weather is hot and people need to take showers frequently. They don't want to wait in line, so they just take showers at home.
In winter, there are more people taking showers there.
In order to be able to take a bath at home, Lu Weiguo ordered a bathtub and a bath cover for Shi Tingyu.
The bath cover can be spread out to cover the bathtub like a mosquito net, so it won't be so cold to take a bath.
Shi Tingyu couldn't remember when the bath cover was invented, but it was either in the late 1970s or early 1980s.
Lu Weiguo went to buy one as Shi Tingyu asked, but he couldn't find it after going to many places. Later, he asked someone to order one according to Shi Tingyu's request.
But this one is usually used when it's cold, and it's summer now, so it's not needed yet.
Sitting in the bathtub, Shi Tingyu took a bath with some restraint, hoping that reform and opening up would come sooner, and then various commodities would appear one after another, and she could improve her life.
In fact, she could go to the space to take a bath.
Even if you don't bathe in the Lingquan pool, you can bring a bathtub in and lead the Lingquan water into the bathtub.
The Lingquan water itself is warm, and the temperature in the space is just right.
But she didn't dare.
Nowadays, many people take a bath in the summer by fetching a large basin of water and putting it under the sun to heat it up, and then take a bath at noon, or in the afternoon.
But she can't do that. It
's hot now, and even if you take a bath in the afternoon, you will be sweating again when dinner is cooked.
You can't go to bed without taking a bath at night.
Shi Tingyu takes a bath in another room at home.
She often bathes, and the speed is fast. Just when she was about to come out, the light in the room flickered, and two seconds later, the room fell into darkness.
