Chapter 23 sprouted so quickly?
The four of them walked and chatted as they went, and soon arrived home.
Gu Yiye said, "Shanshan, go wash your hands. You can eat after you wash your hands."
After he finished speaking, he carried the cooked dishes, which had been kept warm in the kitchen, to the main room and arranged them.
After Lin Shanshan and the other two washed their hands and sat down, they saw a table full of delicious dishes.
The pickled fish with grass carp slices looks so delicious it makes your mouth water.
The crucian carp and tofu soup turned milky white and smelled delicious.
There's also braised bream, with its vibrant color and tender flesh.
There's also stir-fried wild celery.
The biggest surprise was that Gu Yiye even made mugwort cakes.
Besides enjoying seafood such as fish, shrimp, and crab, Lin Shanshan also likes to eat mugwort cakes.
Looking at Lin Shanshan's bright and sparkling eyes, Gu Yiye knew that the dishes he made today were all his little wife's favorites.
Gu Yiye thought happily, "It wasn't a wasted effort."
The four of them started eating, and Zeng Huihuang said with emotion: "Who would have thought that just a few days ago we could only eat one meal a day, and no meat at all, but today we've had two meals with our eldest brother, plus one last night, making it three meals in total."
"And there's meat with every meal."
Chen Meili scooped up a bowl of crucian carp and tofu soup, and praised as she drank, "It's so delicious! Following Big Brother means we get to eat meat!"
Gu Yiye said, "Even eating can't shut you up. Hurry up and eat and go back. Don't disturb my time with your sister-in-law."
Zeng Huihuang laughed and said, "You value romance over friendship."
Chen Meili said, "Why don't you just find a partner too?"
Zeng Huihuang asked, "If I ask you, do you agree?"
Chen Meili: "......"
The educated youth worked together during the day to earn work points, and returned to their settlement together at night to rest.
Over time, Chen Meili developed a slight liking for Zeng Huihuang.
Although Zeng Huihuang is not very handsome or tall, he has good character and a good personality. However, the fact that he brought it up like that makes people think he is joking.
Chen Meili could only remain silent.
Lin Shanshan also felt that this was not a good idea. If you really like someone, you should confess seriously. Therefore, she did not plan to help Zeng Huihuang.
She changed the subject: "Meili, don't just drink the soup, eat some mugwort cakes. You can eat them while you drink the soup, the taste is amazing."
Zeng Huihuang was truly wronged. Despite his carefree personality, he was actually quite timid when it came to relationships. He had long harbored feelings for the innocent, kind-hearted, and round-faced Chen Meili.
I've never dared to say it outright, for fear of being rejected.
I finally managed to bring it up today, but the girl didn't agree.
Sigh, the road to winning back my wife is long and arduous!
Chen Meili took a bite of a mugwort cake and then drank a sip of the soup.
"This way of eating is really delicious. The fish soup is fresh and delicious, and the mugwort cakes have a fragrant and lingering flavor. It's so good."
Gu Yiye scooped some pickled fish with a spoon for Lin Shanshan and said, "Try this. The pickled cabbage was made by Grandma Zhang herself, so it's clean."
Lin Shanshan took a bite; the fish slices were tender and smooth, with a sour and spicy flavor that went very well with rice.
The meal was a pleasure for both the host and guests.
After dinner, to ease the embarrassment of his failed confession, Zeng Huihuang pretended to go check on the vegetable garden around the house, saying he wanted to see if the seeds had sprouted.
Chen Meili, with a carefree attitude, laughed and said, "There's no such thing as planting something in the morning and expecting it to sprout by noon."
Zeng Huihuang first looked at the vegetable garden in front of the house. It was a bare patch of land.
Then they went to look around behind the house.
"Ahhh, it sprouted! It actually sprouted!!!"
Zeng Huihuang could hardly believe his eyes; tiny sprouts were emerging from the soil in the vegetable garden behind the house.
It was a vibrant, fresh green, standing out brightly against the black soil.
The three people sitting in the main room burst into laughter upon hearing this.
Chen Meili said, "It's definitely a lie. Don't fall for it, don't go."
Lin Shanshan and Gu Yiye agreed wholeheartedly and remained seated firmly in their chairs.
Seeing that no one was coming, Zeng Huihuang hurriedly ran to the main room and called out, "It's true, I'd be a dog if I lied to you. Although it's not much, some have really grown."
Zeng Huihuang gestured a distance of 6 centimeters with his thumb and forefinger and said, "It's grown this long now!"
