Zhen Qiao and Qian Duoduo chatted casually, but whenever they tried to bring up Qian Mao, Qian Duoduo would always change the subject, leaving Zhen Qiao feeling frustrated.
She stayed there for a long time, chatting with Qian Duoduo about this and that.
At first, Qian Duoduo kept her company and talked to her, but the boring conversation made her a little bored.
She stood up and said, "Sister-in-law, it's getting late, I need to prepare dinner!"
Zhen Qiao smiled and said, "Then I'll help you start the fire!" After cooking, we should be able to see Qian Mao, whose leader-like demeanor is quite different from the others in the village.
All those men smelled of sweat, but Qian Mao didn't. Although she hadn't had much contact with him, whenever he put on that white shirt, she could only see him.
She now regrets marrying Qian Gui. She should have come to Beian Village to take a look; maybe she would have fallen for Qian Mao!
The thought of her current mother-in-law arranging a marriage for Qian Mao made her feel a little sad!
Qian Duoduo was just making up an excuse to get Zhen Qiao to go home; what kind of behavior is it for her to stay and tend the fire?
She immediately said, "Sister-in-law, how could I ask you to help me start the fire? Besides, everyone is starting to cook at this time, and Auntie might be looking for you too!"
Zhen Qiao was taken aback by these words. Thinking of her formidable mother-in-law, she immediately smiled and said, "Yes!" She stood up, patted herself down, and said, "Duo Duo, I won't chat with you any longer. I'm going home to cook. I'll come find you again when I have time."
Qian Duoduo smiled and nodded, watching her departing figure before slowly sitting down on the stool. She felt that the two-hour chat that afternoon had been a little strange, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong.
She rested her head on her hand, slowly recalling her conversation with Zhen Qiao. Some topics would abruptly end at a certain point, and then move on to the next topic.
Qian Duoduo couldn't figure it out no matter what she did, so she could only pat her forehead, stand up, and go cook.
These past few days, Qian Mao went on a business trip to the provincial capital with Secretary Lu, so only he and his father were at home. Qian Sheng looked at the two dishes on the table, one meat and one vegetable, and said, "Old lady, there's no need to prepare so much for just the two of us!"
Qian Duoduo smiled and put a piece of meat on Qian Sheng's plate, saying, "Mom's not home, I can't let you get thin from starvation, otherwise Mom will be heartbroken when she comes back!"
Qian Sheng thought of that heartless old woman who had been gone for almost a year, and his heart ached. This was the first time the two of them had been separated for such a long time since they got married.
He took a bite of meat and said, "Your mother lives a life of luxury at your second brother's place. She would never imagine that we're just a farmer who toils in the fields!" Then, seeing Qian Duoduo's mischievous look, he felt that what he had just said was incredibly sarcastic, so he coughed lightly and said, "What are you looking at me for? Eat, hurry up and eat!"
Qian Duoduo immediately lowered her head: "Oh, okay, okay!"
Sigh, this old man, he just wants his wife, but he's so hypocritical, I don't even want to complain about him anymore!
The next day, Qian Duoduo was still tidying up the house when she heard someone calling her name at the door. She pushed the door open and saw that it was Jia Ao.
Behind him was a handcart with a slab of tofu on it. Her eyes lit up, and she quickly stepped forward: "Brother-in-law, you've brought me tofu?"
Jia Ao smiled and said, "Chunmei said this was made according to your requirements. What do you think, is it okay?"
Qian Duoduo immediately stepped forward to take a look: "Yes, it's what I wanted. Brother-in-law, could you please put it in the kitchen for me?"
Jia Ao nodded. If he had previously chosen to marry into the Zhang family out of a desire to survive, now he was beginning to enjoy this life. Although Zhang the tofu maker was strict, he was an honest man who made tofu with integrity.
Although Zhang Chunmei's appearance is rather indescribable, she is generous, cheerful, and unpretentious. She is also very good to herself. She has grown from a weakling weighing 100 pounds to a strong laborer weighing 140 pounds who can lift three slabs of tofu. The Zhang family's meals have played a significant role in this.
So he found Qian Duoduo's address of "brother-in-law" quite agreeable.
He casually placed the slab of tofu on the kitchen counter and said, "Alright, I've delivered the goods, I'll head back now."
Qian Duoduo smiled and said, "Thank you, brother-in-law!"
Jia Ao smiled and pushed the cart away.
Qian Duoduo looked at the sixteen pieces of tofu that had been cut and smiled. This was a ready-made dish.
She returned to the space farm and saw that Su Ruanruan had sent many messages. Qian Duoduo glanced through them and thought, "Hmm, there's something new going on."
Qian Duoduo: "Miss Su, what's wrong? Have you gotten over your sadness?"
Su Ruanruan: "Duoduo, my spring has arrived!"
Qian Duoduo: "Have you ever experienced winter, living like this every day?"
Su Ruanruan: "I'm 28 years old, in the prime of my youth. What? Can't I have my spring yet?"
Qian Duoduo: "What? You're only 28? That's unbelievable!"
Su Ruanruan: "What's with that expression? Does that mean I can't be 28?"
Qian Duoduo: "I thought you were a single mother with a son and a daughter!"
Su Ruanruan: "My son is a dog, and my daughter is a cat!"
Qian Duoduo: "I'm sorry, I offended you!"
Su Ruanruan: "Little cutie, next time let's get to the bottom of things, are you okay?"
Qian Duoduo: "OK OK!"
