Chapter 45 Seeds of Doubt!



Chapter 45 Seeds of Doubt!

The Lu family is very quiet.

When Huang Xinran returned home, no one was at home.

She put her things down, opened the cupboard and searched for a while. Seeing that there was nothing to eat, after a little consideration, she took a sickle and cut a bunch of leeks beside the house and went home, planning to fry them with two eggs to make a simple version of "vegetable bun".

Of course, she also did not forget to cook a big pot of amaranth, which was served with "cai jia bun", which was delicious and filling.

While they were busy, Yaya and Maomao came back covered in mud.

Huang Xinran was stunned: "Did you guys... go down to the river again?"

"No, no!"

The two children remembered the scolding they had received last time. Seeing that their mother was angry, they explained hastily, "We didn't go to the river. Mom, Yaya and her brother went to the river. It was Dada! He is very good at catching loaches. Look, these loaches... were all caught by him! Mom, look..."

Yaya, with an expression that looked like she was asking for praise, showed her the string of loaches in her hand.

Huang Xinran had actually seen it a long time ago.

On the knotted dogtail grass, there was a large string of loaches, probably about twenty of them. And behind her, Maomao's hand was holding eels and crucian carps. Not to mention the small crucian carps, the eels were really big, there were three of them, Huang Xinran's eyes lit up when she saw them, they could probably make a bloody plate!

"Mommy misunderstood Yaya. Come, let Mommy take a look..."

Huang Xinran praised her generously, "Our Yaya is really capable. She has caught so many loaches. Come on, put them down and wait for Mama to show you her cooking skills. Come on, have a taste of Mama's cooking skills at noon. Okay?"

"good!"

Yaya clapped and laughed happily.

As long as Mommy doesn't leave, she's happy no matter what Mommy does.

Even Maomao's eyes lit up, because his mother also praised him!

"Our Maomao is just as capable. Even his mother is afraid of the eel, but Maomao dares to squeeze it in his hands. He is so brave!"

Huang Xinran put down the loach and eel, scooped up some hot water from the pot, and called the children over, "Come here, mommy will wash your hands."

The mud on the face and hands was easy to wash off, but the clothes on the two little clay figures were dirty and had to be changed.

It's no wonder that children in the countryside have dirty clothes. It only takes a few minutes to dirty clothes, but adults have to find time to wash clothes in their busy schedules. It's easy to wash clothes once or twice, but if it happens too often, especially during the busy farming season, can't we just reduce the frequency of washing?

By noon, when everyone had finished work, everyone's faces were silent.

In fact, the reason was very simple. Who asked Jiang Yurou to knock on Huang Xinran's door before dawn? It happened that the other party was not in the room yet.

If a married woman does not come home at night, you can tell there is something wrong.

No wonder everyone in the Lu family looks unhappy.

Seeing that his son had remained silent, Lu Tianlei quickly took two steps forward and patted his shoulder: "Don't be impatient, find out the reason first."

"Got it, Dad."

In fact, Lu Yunchen didn’t think so much. Others didn’t know Huang Xinran’s whereabouts, but he knew!

Especially in the morning when he found out that Huang Xinran did not go back to sleep, he went to the cherry orchard and found that all the green bumps on the cherries on another tree were gone. Without thinking, he guessed what the other party was doing.

I just didn’t know how to explain it to my family, so I just kept silent.

"Whatever you ask, it's just like that!"

Zhang Wenbi couldn't hold back any longer and said a few more words: "I turned a blind eye to her misbehavior before. But now that Yun Chen is at home, she is still acting like this. Is she trying to stir up trouble? If you ask me, I have to find Huang Zhiye and have a good talk with him. If I don't make this matter clear, I'm not Zhang!"

"Mom!~"

Lu Yunchen shouted hurriedly.

He was planning to divorce Huang Xinran, so why bother causing so much trouble?

In the future, Yaya and Maomao will grow up, and having a mother with a bad reputation will not be of any benefit to the children.

"Mom, let me talk to her first. Even if she is a provincial murderer, you should give her a chance to explain, right? What's more, she is just not at home. Maybe she went out early in the morning. If we do this, won't it make her feel cold?"

"Forget it, can she still be busy?"

Before Zhang Wenbi and Lu Tianlei could say anything, Lu Yunqian jumped out and said, "Fourth brother, you are clearly favoring her by saying that!"

"Don't worry, even if it's for Yaya and Maomao, I won't favor anyone!"

At most, it can cover up some of the shameful things that cannot be seen by others...

The group walked back with heavy steps. Before they reached home, they smelled a strong fragrance.

"Hey, could it be...she is cooking?"

Zhang Wenbi said hesitantly.

"Impossible! She can't cook, I don't believe it!" Upon hearing this, Lu Yunqian hurried into the yard.

As soon as you enter the yard, the strong fragrance becomes more and more pervasive.

Huang Xinran was busy setting the table. She saw Lu Yunqian staring at her in surprise and raised her eyebrows: "What are you looking at? What's so good about it?"

Lu Yunqian was speechless and pointed at her, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"What are you still standing there for? Why don't you go and lend a hand?"

Zhang Wenbi heaved a long sigh of relief and hurriedly ordered his silly daughter to do something.

On the way back, she also thought about it. Yaya and Maomao are still young and need their parents' care. Yun Chen is in the army all year round and has no time to take care of the children. The burden of taking care of the children has always fallen on Huang Xinran. It is understandable that the other party has complaints in his heart.

As a human being, everyone gets confused sometimes.

As long as Huang Xinran is still willing to live with Yun Chen, she will support them to continue living together.

When Lu Yunqian went to the kitchen with her eyes blank, Zhang Wenbi came forward and said, "What delicious food did Ranran make? It smells delicious from far away. Let me take a look!"

"It's just some home-cooked food. The last dish has not been cooked yet. Please sit down and wait for a while. The meal will be served soon."

There was only one slice of eel blood left to be fried. Who said that this dish had to be fried right away to be delicious? She could finish it right away.

Huang Xinran glanced at Lu Yunchen and saw that he was looking at her with those deep eyes. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and secretly signaled to him.

Lu Yunchen said nothing and turned his eyes away silently.

Huang Xinran turned around and went to the kitchen without thinking too much. Soon the eel slices came out of the pot and everyone sat down to eat.

Today's dishes are indeed very rich.

Two fist-sized steamed buns were cut open and stuffed with leeks fried with eggs. They tasted so delicious!

Not to mention the braised loach and stir-fried eel slices, which are not the usual ways of eating for them. It is not known whether they taste good or not, but just looking at them on the plate, the rich aroma makes the saliva in the mouth have its own ideas and keeps secreting.

"Come on, come on, let's eat together!"

The head of the family, Lu Tianlei, was the first to pick up his chopsticks.

The first thing he tasted was the stir-fried eel slices that were served last.

This dish is very particular about the cooking time. If it is cooked too long, the meat will be overcooked and taste bad. If it is cooked too short, it will be bloody. But Huang Xinran's dish has the right cooking time. It tastes so fragrant and tender! With the garlic sprouts and green onions in it, it tastes so delicious that you want to eat your tongue.

“Good, delicious…”

People hadn't tasted it before, so they didn't think it was anything special. But now that they tasted it, they couldn't stop eating.

They have all eaten eels, but they didn't know that the blood can be removed from the eels without leaving any bones, and that the eels can be so tender, so fragrant, and so delicious.

They have lived in vain all these years!
