When Yang Ermao entered the house, he could already smell the aroma of beef, and his mouth was watering with greed.
"Sister Jinfeng, let me help you light the fire." Yang Ermao walked to the stove and squatted down.
The cat, a 1.8-meter-tall man, was sitting at the stove door. The fire from the stove started to make him sweat profusely.
However, Yang Ermao didn't feel it was hard. He was happy to help Li Jinfeng.
The beef was cooked. Li Jinfeng picked up a piece of beef for Yang Ermao with chopsticks and said, "Taste it and see if it tastes good."
After Yang Ermao finished eating, he gave Li Jinfeng a thumbs-up and said, "Sister Jinfeng's cooking is still delicious. It's the taste of our Southern Province!"
The food in southern province is spicy, and many people mix chili peppers with rice.
Yang Ermao loves spicy food, and it just so happened that the boiled beef slices made by Li Jinfeng not only contained dried chili segments, but also green peppers. When he put a piece of beef in his mouth, even people who can tolerate spicy food would break out in a sweat.
"But Sister Jinfeng, He Zhiqing doesn't eat spicy food. Can she eat this?" Yang Ermao asked.
As soon as she finished speaking, Li Jinfeng opened the cupboard and said, "Pour some before adding the peppers. Let her and the children eat it together when the time comes."
Tuantuan and Yuanyuan can both eat spicy food, but they are too young, so Li Jinfeng won't let them.
Little girl Meimei likes to eat sweets, but sweets are harmful to teeth, so Li Jinfeng usually controls her consumption.
"Yeah, Sister Jinfeng, you are so nice." Yang Ermao said sweetly.
"You're my younger brother. If I don't treat you well, who should I treat well? By the way, I want to go to the county town in a few days for a checkup to confirm whether I'll give birth in the hospital or at home with a midwife. I'll definitely have to send a telegram to Master and his wife. Do you have any messages you want me to take with you?"
Although the conditions here are not very good, Li Jinfeng still wants to pay attention to such a big thing as having a child.
She only has one life, and if something happens to her, it will be more trouble than it is worth.
Yang Ermao didn't rush to answer the telegram, but instead said, "Sister Jinfeng, won't Brother Lu come back when you give birth?"
"I don't know, most likely there is no time." Li Jinfeng said.
The comrades who sent her money, tickets and supplies accidentally revealed to her that those doing scientific research at the experimental base didn't even have time to eat or go to the toilet.
"How could this be... What kind of job does Brother Lu have? Can't he even come back to give birth to his wife?" Yang Ermao was also unhappy.
In his opinion, Lu Jianguo is Li Jinfeng's lover and should shoulder the responsibilities he should bear.
"Ermao, let's not talk about this. You haven't told me what message you want to give to your parents." Li Jinfeng didn't mention Lu Jianguo's work.
Yang Ermao saw what Li Jinfeng was up to, so he stopped pressing her and said, "I don't have much to say. If my parents knew we were together, they'd be so happy they'd go crazy!"
"Okay, then I'll bring up this matter, and we can talk about other things when we meet later," said Li Jinfeng.
"Yeah, okay!"
Li Jinfeng continued to cook, and Yang Ermao continued to help light the fire.
Li Jinfeng made scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried shrimps, loofah soup, and fried tofu.
This place is far from the supply and marketing cooperative, and it is inconvenient to get things. When Li Jinfeng cooks, she can only cook the same few dishes every day.
Especially after she became pregnant, it was not easy to go to the commune or the county town. Fortunately, people in this era were not picky, and being able to fill their stomachs was already the first choice.
Li Jinfeng was going to ask Tuantuan to call He Xin, but Yang Ermao volunteered.
