Li Xin saw that the house had been cleaned and every corner was swept spotlessly, so he put Sanmao back into the space.
"I said yesterday that I can't cook, otherwise I could have asked Sanmao to cook for me." Li Xin sighed.
Sanmao placed the ingredients that had been processed neatly on the stove, intending to wait for He Beichen to come back before cooking them.
In the evening, He Beichen was still worried that Li Xin couldn't cook, so he came home earlier than usual.
"You're back." Hearing the noise coming from the door, Li Xin, who was sitting in the living room waiting, quickly stood up.
Fortunately, she put Sanmao away early. If she had been seen, she would probably have to pack her bags and go to Happy Planet.
As soon as He Beichen opened the door, he could feel that the house was obviously different. Not only was it clean and tidy, but there were also several small decorations, making it feel more homely.
"Have you finished cleaning the house?" Although the house wasn't very big, she must have been very tired since she was the only one doing it. "Thank you for your hard work."
Although he can't cook, it can be seen that Li Xin has definitely not been idle at home today.
Just now, I saw washed clothes hanging outside the door.
Li Xin felt a little guilty after hearing this. After all, it wasn't her who was working hard, but Sanmao.
"Sister Xiang came over today and brought me some clothes. I've already given her money for food." Li Xin didn't want to accept the condemnation of his conscience, so he changed the subject.
He Beichen nodded. When he came back and saw Li Xin wearing clothes that didn't fit him well, he knew that Liu Xiang had been there.
However, he felt that he still had to buy some clothes for her during his break, as Liu Xiang's clothes were obviously much larger for Li Xin.
"Sister Xiang is very nice. There are still a few pieces that don't fit me well. She said I can take them back to be altered and she will send them to me when she has time." Including the ones Liu Xiang gave her, she already has several pieces of clothing in her wardrobe, so she doesn't need to buy new ones.
He Beichen saw the processed ingredients on the stove. Everything that needed to be washed and cut had been done, and each dish was ready to be served. From the ingredients, it could be seen that Li Xin's knife skills were quite good.
But He Beichen was a little surprised that Li Xin couldn't cook. Judging from the prepared ingredients, it was not obvious at all.
"Grandpa will come over tomorrow night and said he wants to see you." He Beichen turned on the fire.
"OK."
The book mentioned that He Beichen only had his grandfather as his relative, so Li Xin naturally had no objection.
…
next day
Considering that the old man would come in the evening, Li Xin went to Liu Xiang to buy some tea, took out Sanmao from the space, and cleaned the house again, leaving no corner untouched.
It’s the first time I met He Beichen’s parents, the first impression is very important!
"Was that Deputy Regiment Commander He and the old commander just now?" When it was almost evening, someone in the compound saw He Beichen and the old commander returning to the compound together.
He Beichen lived in the compound, so his return was not surprising, but it was a rare sight to see him with the old commander.
There were many military affairs, and He Yubo seldom returned.
"That's right!" The grandfather and grandson are so easy to recognize.
"I heard that Deputy Commander He got married while on leave this time, and even brought his wife to the compound. Could it be that the old commander came here to see his grandson's wife?" Someone remembered the previous rumors and couldn't help but speculate.
Everyone has only heard about it these past two days, but no one has seen He Beichen's wife. The only thing they know is that Liu Xiang has been to Deputy Commander He's house.
But now it’s confirmed.
"Did Deputy Colonel He really get married suddenly? I wonder what kind of wife he found?" A military wife in the compound looked curiously in the direction of He Beichen's house.
But Li Xin had never left the house, and they hadn't seen any new faces in the compound recently.
"What a pity! I wanted to bring my cousin here and introduce her to Deputy Regimental Commander He." He is the grandson of the old commander and a deputy regiment commander. Wouldn't it be a great deal to marry him?
By then, we can also become relatives and friends, and maybe we can even promote their men in the future!
He Beichen and He Yubo went home together. Li Xin, who was at home, heard the door open, and quickly grabbed Sanmao and stuffed him into the space, then hid in the kitchen.
She didn't expect He Beichen to come back earlier today than yesterday, and almost exposed Sanmao.
Li Xin quickly calmed down and brought out the tea he had just brewed.
"Hello, Grandpa." Looking at the old man who followed He Beichen in with a stern face and looked even more fierce than He Beichen, Li Xin hurriedly called him obediently.
"Yeah." The old man nodded and swept his eyes across the room. Seeing that the room was clean, he felt quite satisfied.
Especially when he just came in, Li Xin handed him a cup of hot tea, which made the old man think that Li Xin was a pretty good girl.
She is pretty and has a sweet smile, but she looks a little too thin. She should eat more and gain some weight to look better.
"Your name is Li Xin, right? How old are you this year?" The old man asked her after taking a sip of tea.
"Eighteen."
Watching the old man carrying tea and walking towards the sofa, Li Xin turned his gaze to He Beichen.
He Beichen took her to the sofa, ready to talk to Li Xin and the old man.
He Yubo thought that his grandson was already 26 years old, eight years older than Li Xin. He glanced at He Beichen and felt that it was not easy for this little girl to be willing to follow such a stupid guy. His expression softened a lot.
"Grandpa, let's eat here. I bought a chicken and put it in the kitchen. Let's stew it for dinner." Li Xin said to He Beichen in a low voice.
Of course, the chicken was not bought. She took it from the Li family's kitchen before. Sanmao had already prepared it, and He Beichen only needed to start stewing it.
"Then you go and cook, I'll keep you company, grandpa."
She could see that He Beichen was worried that she was scared, so he wanted to accompany her.
But Li Xin was not afraid. He often did research with those old professors in the research institute, and had no problem getting along with the elderly.
Besides, someone has to cook dinner, and she doesn’t know how!
"Don't be afraid, I just came here to see my granddaughter-in-law. Just treat me as an ordinary old man." He Yubo saw Li Xin pushing He Beichen and seemed a little nervous, so he gently comforted the girl.
The old man had been to the battlefield, and he looked very imposing just by sitting there casually. It wasn't intentional, and he was even afraid of scaring Li Xin, so he restrained himself a little.
"Okay, okay." Li Xin quickly responded and walked over to sit next to He Yubo.
He Yubo asked about her family situation. Although Li Xin's family background was not good, she did not hide anything and told him the truth about her family situation.
"Like this..." The little girl looks quite pitiful, no wonder she is so thin.
He Yubo nodded, and he already had a simple understanding of Li Xin in his mind.
When Li Xin saw him looking at her, she smiled sweetly at He Yubo and looked very well-behaved.
Never mind, as long as the girl has good character, he has no objection.
