She didn't like this kind of behavior, but fortunately they were from the construction team and didn't obey the orders of the battalion commander.
Seeing that the woman ignored her, the wife of the battalion commander cursed in her heart, but smiled: "Sister Li, I will buy some meat in a few days. I can cook it. When the time comes, please lend us the kitchen."
But I was thinking, "Eating alone? Be careful!"
Sister Li and the other people working in the kitchen ignored her and were busy with their own things. Soon, the woman felt bored and left.
Are you kidding? Who would want to deal with this shameless person?
Once you start a conversation, this person will try to take advantage of you in various ways.
He even wanted to take back the bones with some meat on them that someone had given to the wolfhound as a reward and make soup with them.
The backs of several construction women who stormed out of the house angrily because they didn't get any advantage all seemed to be feeling sorry for the battalion commander.
The battalion commander of the first battalion is 1.8 meters tall. He is not ugly, just a little dark. He is 33 years old now, which is the age when men are charming.
It’s just unfortunate that I married a woman like this.
No wonder the girl wanted to become this man's wife and pledge her love to him.
"If I were the battalion commander, I would have wanted to divorce her a long time ago. This woman thinks about her parents' home every day. Now she has a terminal illness and won't live for many days, but she still wants to take things away from her parents' home. The battalion commander's family is really unlucky for marrying her."
"Are you talking about Captain Su's sister? That sister is pretty, has a good figure, and is good at taking care of children. She takes good care of the three children of her brother and sister-in-law. Captain Su's wife only needs to dress up and go to work.
This girl is really nice. If my family could have a girl like her, I wouldn’t want her to marry a second-married woman with three kids.”
"Captain Liu saved her, and she wants to repay him. What's wrong with that? I think this girl Su can do it."
Seeing that the two of them were getting more and more excited and were about to take her in, Sister Li quickly interrupted them and said, "Aren't you two going to work? Aren't you afraid of being overheard and gossiped about?"
Only then did the few of them calm down a little.
After Huo Chenzhou brought the food back, Shi Yanning was still sitting at the table, busy.
"Eat first. Being hungry hurts your stomach."
This is the chicken soup I got from Mrs. Li in the cafeteria. She asked me to bring it back for you. You should eat more of it. Don’t let her down.
When Shi Yanning heard that it was Sister Li, he put down the pen in his hand and covered it.
"Sister-in-law Li? Do you mean Director Zhao's wife?"
When Shi Yanning first came, it was Sister Li who told her a lot of things to pay attention to here. She is a very kind-hearted person.
"It was her. Guess what else she told me?"
Huo Chenzhou obviously wanted to talk to Yan Ning at the same time and let her have a good rest. Otherwise, looking at her expression, she might still be thinking about work while eating.
"What?"
Shi Yanning took a sip of the soup and it was delicious. It had been a long time since she had tasted such authentic chicken soup. She missed Mrs. Huo a little.
She was used to not seeing her parents once a year, but Mama Huo often prepared soup and food for her even though they hadn't been together for a few days.
"Sister Li told me that if I have anything to say to you, I should talk it out. She also said that we are young and need to think about the important things in life."
Huo Chenzhou's tone became noticeably heavier in the second half of the sentence. Shi Yanning understood immediately and her face flushed instantly.
She was concentrating on eating, but the man's gaze seemed to be vaguely on the top of her head.
Huo Chenzhou thought carefully about the rumors he had heard recently, and also thought of the battalion commander's three children and his terminally ill wife.
Let’s not talk about those things when we are working, but it’s not okay to involve his wife!
Sister Li’s cooking skills are good, at least better than the Western food she had been eating for half a month.
Shi Yanning ate all the food in the lunch box and drank half of the soup. He couldn't eat the rest and looked at Huo Chenzhou with deer-like eyes.
With just one glance, Huo Chenzhou took the bowl and drank half a bowl of chicken soup in one gulp.
Shi Yanning thought that his drawings were almost finished and he could hand them in tomorrow.
So she took out a silk scarf from her suitcase. She bought the scarves in a foreign store. There were many styles and they didn't take up much space, so she bought many of them.
Of course, they are not as good as the ones at home.
But it is enough for social interactions.
So, after Shi Yanning had prepared everything, Huo Chenzhou had already washed the lunch box. Judging from his wife's attitude, was she going to give a gift?
"Sister Li has been very caring towards me. I plan to give her a commemorative gift and return the lunch box to her at the same time."
Huo Chenzhou knew his wife's personality, and also knew that he spent a lot of time on missions or at the construction site, so it would be good to have someone by his side.
"Okay, go ahead."
Shi Yanning went out with her things.
Coincidentally, when passing by a family compound, Shi Yanning could clearly feel a hint of malice, but when she looked carefully, it was gone.
When I turned around, I saw Sister Li coming home from get off work.
"Sister Li, I'm here to return the lunch box. Thank you. The chicken soup you made is delicious."
Sister Li welcomed the person into the house. She liked pretty girls! She had three sons in her family, and the boy was now being looked after by their grandmother and was going to school.
"Come on, come on, let's go inside and talk. It's cold outside."
Shi Yanning handed over a silk scarf and a bottle of wine: "I brought this back from abroad, I hope you like it."
"Oh, you are too polite. Why do you spend so much money on just a bowl of water? You should save this money now. When your baby is born, he will need milk powder and food. It will cost a lot of money!"
Li Xiumin glanced at the silk scarf. It felt smooth to the touch and the color was bright. It was obvious that it was not a cheap product! Li Xiumin's directive was too strong. Shi Yanning thought of what Huo Chenzhou had said just now.
"child?"
Shi Yanning spoke tentatively.
"Yes, you and Captain Huo are still young. You two look perfect together! If you have children, they will surely be as cute and well-behaved as you two!"
After Li Xiumin finished speaking, she quietly stepped forward and closed the door. She pulled Shi Yanning and whispered, "It's been rumored in the camp recently that you are a sickly person. Didn't the wife of the battalion commander of the first battalion have a terminal illness? But she, at least, gave birth to three children, which is better than you!
I don't like that person. Everyone thinks she acts too selfishly and no one likes dealing with her. But since she is a dying person, everyone is polite to her.
My sister-in-law just thinks that you were lying in the house and rarely went out because you were doing research! It’s not because of any illness. You and Captain Huo should hurry up and have a baby. Women should have children as early as possible! "
Sister Li spoke a long paragraph in one breath, and Shi Yanning didn't want to interrupt her. When she finally finished, Shi Yanning was about to speak.
When Sister Li pushed her hand, she had to drink some water!
"Gudong~"
A big mouthful,
"What's the matter? What do you want to say? Just tell me and I'll analyze it for you!"
