Zhou Shuyi stayed in the living room for a while, but felt a little uncomfortable sitting there, so he went to take a look in the kitchen.
"Is there anything I can help you with?"
Mother Qin hadn't expected this official's wife to be so easy to get along with. She said politely, "No, no, just rest in the room."
Zhou Shuyi felt a little regretful. She had originally planned to get along well with them under the pretext of working.
She walked out of the kitchen unhappily, saw Shen Annian picking vegetables with a basket, and walked over to her.
Although she had never grown vegetables, someone in the military compound had grown vegetables.
Can vegetables grow so lush?
This tomato is so big and red, it looks so beautiful.
And this cucumber looks juicy and big.
Could it be that the land here is particularly good, so the vegetables grown here are particularly good?
"What are you picking? Can I help?"
Shen Anyian really didn't need her help with anything.
But seeing Zhou Shuyi's cautious look, she knew she wanted to break the ice, so she said, "Pick some tomatoes."
Zhou Shuyi picked out two of the largest and most beautiful tomatoes and said with emotion, "The vegetables you grow are really good."
No, these are vegetables she grew using spiritual spring water. Naturally, they grow better and taste better than those grown outside.
"Do you like raw tomatoes? This tomato tastes good."
Zhou Shuyi has almost never eaten raw tomatoes.
There is so much fruit at home that she can’t even finish it all, so why would she need to eat raw vegetables?
But this was Shen Annian who asked, she hesitated for a second and said, "I can eat it."
"Then I'll mix some sugar with tomatoes for you to eat. The tomatoes I grow at home are sweet and sour and delicious."
This was food made by her daughter herself, so Zhou Shuyi was naturally happy.
"good."
Shen Annian carried a basket of vegetables into the kitchen, washed the tomatoes, picked one up and took a bite.
It's juicy, sour and sweet, and tastes really good.
But she didn't forget Zhou Shuyi's portion. She cut it into pieces, arranged it on a plate, sprinkled some sugar on it, and served it to Zhou Shuyi.
"Take it back to the living room and eat it slowly."
Zhou Shuyi: ...
She feels like a parent coaxing a child.
She pursed her lips, took the plate of tomatoes and brought it back to the living room.
When Qin's mother heard her words, she knew she was deliberately sending him away. She said, "Comrade Zhou came here to improve relations. Why are you pushing him away?"
"I really don't have much to say to her. If we keep having such a dry conversation, it will be awkward for both of us."
She couldn't get close to Zhou Shuyi.
Even though I knew she wanted to make amends to me, I couldn't get close to her.
The time that is missed is missed after all.
She didn't object to them coming to see her. In her opinion, this kind of relationship of gradual communication and interaction was the most comfortable.
Mother Qin sighed when she heard her words.
If she were to say, this mother-in-law has a really good temper.
Although she was an official's wife, she did not look down on others and had no schemes. She was a good person.
What’s more, she is Shen Annian’s biological mother.
She was a person with very traditional ideas. Just based on the blood relationship, she felt that Shen Annian should get along well with them.
But she didn't persuade Shen Annian much.
Shen Annian's ideas are often different from hers. She has her own reasons for doing things. As an old country woman with little experience, it is not her turn to point fingers.
When Commander Ye and Qin Zhengqi returned home, they saw Zhou Shuyi happily eating a tomato as soon as they entered the living room.
Zhou Shuyi saw them and greeted them with a smile, "Old Ye, you're back."
Teacher Ye glanced at the table and saw that she had only eaten half of the tomato.
Zhou Shuyi explained: "Niannian was worried that I was hungry, so she made it specially for me.
"Old Ye, are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"
Commander Ye took off his hat and sat opposite her. "Where's Nian Nian?"
"She's busy in the kitchen, saying she's going to make me lunch.
I wanted to go into the kitchen to help, but she wouldn't let me and insisted I sit here."
Teacher Ye had been married to her for many years and knew as soon as he heard her say that she was showing off.
Looking at her again, I saw a smile between her eyebrows and eyes, and guessed that things were going well between them.
Originally, he was worried that rumors would spread here, and he didn't want Zhou Shuyi to come to the Qin family, so as not to cause a burden to Shen Anyan.
When the time comes, call Shen Annian to the army and they will just have to say a few words.
But Zhou Shuyi insisted on coming, and he couldn't persuade her, so he had to agree.
Fortunately, Shen Annian was not angry and they got along quite well.
Qin Zhengqi heard that Shen Annian was busy in the kitchen, said hello to Zhou Shuyi, and went to the kitchen.
Shen Annian was chewing a cucumber and standing by watching Mother Qin cooking.
"Mom, this dish smells so good, it must be delicious."
"You, you just say nice things to make me happy."
"I'm telling the truth. Your cooking skills have improved by leaps and bounds. My appetite has improved recently."
She saw a dark shadow walking in, looked up and saw it was Qin Zhengqi, and immediately ran over.
"You're back."
That clinging look was just like a young wife waiting for her husband at home.
Qin Zhengqi gently rubbed her head and said, "Commander Ye is here."
Shen Annian's eyes lit up, "Did he mention me? Did he say he wanted to see me for something?"
She didn't know how the task she asked him to do was going.
"Go over and say hello."
"OK."
Shen An Nian handed the half cucumber that she couldn't finish to Qin Zhengqi's mouth, "Here you go."
Qin Zhengqi knew she couldn't finish it, so he opened his mouth and took a bite, finishing the cucumber in just two or three bites. "Let's go."
