He Beichen didn't quite believe her, but he still said "hmm" and rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen as soon as he got home.
There were still quite a few supplies left from the last time Grandpa sent over. He Beichen picked and chose and took out a piece of bacon weighing five pounds.
It's a pity that the weather in the southern border is too hot and fresh food cannot be stored for a long time. Otherwise, I could make broth and stew braised pork for her.
When Li Xin came out of the shower, there were already several steaming dishes on the table. In addition to the steaming bacon and loach soup that had just been served, He Beichen had also thoughtfully prepared some cold dishes for her, which were refreshing and appetizing.
Li Xin is afraid of heat. When he was in the research institute, he was always thinking about developing the materials for ceramic plates, and he didn't feel anything even if his forehead was covered with sweat.
But when I walked out of the institute and went to the cafeteria, I saw the big pots of dishes. They were all cooked by the army cooks. They were not bad. In order to provide nutrition for the soldiers, a lot of animal oil was added.
But for Li Xin, it was too greasy and difficult to swallow.
He Beichen brought a plate of stir-fried vegetables from the kitchen and wiped his hands. "What are you looking at? You need to eat more. You can't keep getting so skinny. Grandpa will scold me if he sees you."
Li Xin felt full in his heart, and his stomach was very considerate, and he even ate half a bowl of rice more than usual.
He Beichen estimated the time in his mind and decided to come back earlier in the future, make more delicious food, and try to make her plump and plump so that she could raise a cub and it would be comfortable to hold her.
"Well..." After dinner, Li Xin volunteered, "How about I wash the dishes? You've already cooked today, so how about we divide the work and each take half?"
"No need, I can do it." He Beichen glanced at Li Xin's slender white fingers. She was gentle and delicate, and looked like the kind that only a female college student who had never done heavy work and only knew how to write with a pen could support.
Naturally, he was reluctant to let Li Xin do heavy work, and the alkaline noodles used in washing dishes would hurt his hands.
Li Xin couldn't persuade him and wanted to follow him into the kitchen to accompany him, but then his eyes fell on the electric fan that had been squeaking last night.
Forget it, I'd better do something I can do.
The electric fan has a simple structure. After removing the outer wire cover, Li Xin quickly opened the motor inside and replaced the worn electrical components.
You can forget about air conditioning for the time being. Even though it has become widely available in Western countries, you may not be able to buy it in China these days even if you have money.
Li Xin couldn't turn on the air conditioner in the space just for his own enjoyment, so he had to do it slowly.
However, in order to cool down better, Li Xin still thought of a way and added a circle of spray tubes around the electric fan.
Let the electric fan spray mist while sending out fresh air, and the evaporation of water will take away heat.
Li Xin turned the switch on the electric fan. As the impeller inside the fan turned, the spray tube also started working. The moist cool breeze blew on her face, quickly bringing her coolness.
"Huh..." Li Xin closed his eyes comfortably.
I can finally get a good night's sleep tonight.
The sound of water splashing in the bathroom stopped, and He Beichen opened the door and came out, wearing only a pair of large shorts. His broad chest was faintly muscular. A drop of water slid down from the tip of his hair, swirling down from his collarbone, brushing across his chest, and then sliding down the not-too-exaggerated but clearly defined abdominal muscles, and the mermaid line next to it...
My husband came out with his upper body naked. Who can stand it?
Li Xin swallowed subconsciously, then stretched out his hand, covered his eyes to deceive himself, and then looked through his fingers.
"Why aren't you wearing any clothes?" Li Xin asked while admiring her.
"The weather is too hot, and I'll get soaked with sweat if I wear it."
In fact, He Beichen usually stays in the dormitory in weather like this.
After taking a shower, he just wore shorts like his comrades.
Anyway, I'm married to Li Xin and we've done the most intimate things, so what's wrong with being shirtless?
"Then try the fan." Li Xin turned the fan he had repaired so that the cool breeze blew towards him. "Isn't this more comfortable?"
He Beichen's attention was only on her just now, but now he suddenly felt a cool breeze and was surprised to find that the squeaking sound of the electric fan seemed to have quieted down, with only a slight movement.
"Did you fix this? And why is it so cool?" He Beichen walked over and stared at the electric fan with inquiring eyes.
Sure enough, I found that this electric fan was different from the usual ones. It seemed to have something extra and was spraying fine mist.
The man's strong, hot body suddenly approached, and Li Xin's ears turned red from the smoke. He avoided him and hurriedly explained, "I added something to it to help cool it down. It won't be so hot at home anymore... Why don't you put on some clothes? What if you catch a cold?"
He Beichen turned around and looked at her.
Not only were Li Xin's ears red, but his entire face and even his neck were red.
"Okay." He Beichen smiled, opened his clothes, took out a white vest from the closet and put it on, finally covering up his muscular body.
"Did you make this thing?" He Beichen asked casually.
"Well... I learned it from the people in the research institute. They are smart and have a lot of ideas." Li Xin's transformation was not very obvious to begin with, and she had already entered the research institute. When she reached He Beichen's blind spot in knowledge, she could easily fool him.
She took out the spray tube and some small parts from the space. These things are not as common as small springs. If He Beichen finds them, he will not think of her as a spy or hostile element.
"My wife is so smart." He Beichen didn't think much about it. Du Peng and the others did have a lot of ideas anyway.
However, with Li Xin's intelligence, she was able to learn so quickly right after arriving at the research institute. He Beichen really felt that his young wife was smarter than Du Peng and the others.
Li Xin: (? ???ω??? ?)
…
The next day, Li Xin refused to let He Beichen take her to the research institute no matter what.
"I can go by myself. You work so hard every day and still have to come back to bring me food. It's such a short distance, how could I get lost?" It seems that delivering dog food to the soldiers every day does not have a good influence.
After all, He Beichen is still a deputy head of the group.
"It's not hard, I just did it on my way." He Beichen had a smile in his eyes.
His young wife is caring about him!
"But... it would be so embarrassing if this got out. What if others thought that I was able to stay in the institute because of you?" Li Xin said after thinking for a while.
"Who said that?" He Beichen frowned, his eyes immediately becoming dangerous. "Don't listen to those people's nonsense. People in our army never use the backdoor."
"No one said anything, I'm just worried..."
He Beichen rubbed her head and said, "I understand. Go ahead."
