Chapter 35 Because of You
The two of them were enjoying the hot pot in a short while, and the dipping sauce was indispensable.
Chen Yi took out two unpackaged cans of fermented bean curd and a can of sesame paste.
This is already the minimum configuration, it cannot be any less, otherwise the hot pot will not taste good.
He Mingcheng looked at her seasoning and then poured some for himself.
Just seconds after the mutton was put into the pot, Chen Yi prepared it for him to eat.
"Can it be cooked?" He hesitated.
Eating raw meat will make you sick, right?
Chen Yi smiled and said, "This is boiling water, it's okay, and I cut it very thinly, eat it quickly."
He Mingcheng still trusted her very much, so he nodded and started eating.
Follow Chen Yi's example and dip it in some sauce and put it in your mouth.
His eyes lit up. Isn’t this too delicious?
No wonder people still eat it in big cities even though it’s so expensive. He loves it even though it’s so delicious.
The two of them ate a small bowl of mutton, which was a little over three pounds.
Chen Yi didn't eat much, it was all eaten by He Mingcheng.
There were some cabbage leaves, radish slices and potato chips in it, and they were all eaten up.
He Mingcheng smacked his lips and said, "This is really delicious. I'll save the soup for soaking rice tomorrow morning."
After cooking so much meat, the broth must be delicious!
Chen Yi originally wanted to throw it away, but then she remembered that under the current conditions, no one would be willing to throw away such a thing.
She nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll use this soup to cook you noodles tomorrow so they'll taste even better."
In fact, noodles cooked in hot pot are very fragrant, but those cooked in oil pan are not good because they are too oily.
That's even more oily than the hotpot after cooking meat, and using that soup to cook noodles is like drinking oil.
He Mingcheng nodded in agreement, "You decide."
It turns out that eating meat is the most delicious!
He wiped the oil off his mouth and said, "I also brought back two pounds of pork belly. I'll go clean it up."
I was worried that my wife wouldn’t eat well at home, and I didn’t want her to spend the New Year alone at home, so I quickly asked for leave from my boss and went home.
It was also the last day, so I approved it as soon as I heard it and let him come back by train first.
He Mingcheng cleaned out the things, including two pounds of pork belly, a chicken weighing more than three pounds, and two towels.
Apart from the pork belly, the rest are benefits given by the company.
This time he went back and became a formal driver, his salary increased from more than 20 yuan to 56 yuan now.
It will increase further in the future, depending on the work situation.
He put all the things in the water tank in the warehouse and then went back to see his wife.
I haven't seen her for several days, and I feel that my wife has become more beautiful.
Delicious.
After washing up, the two of them went back to their rooms to sleep.
He Mingcheng looked at the closed door and couldn't help feeling a little anxious.
When can I hug my wife and sleep on the warm bed?
But the last time he left, Chen Yi hugged him.
Thinking of this, he smacked his lips, thinking it was progress.
The next morning, when Chen Yi got up, it was already past nine o'clock.
She listened to the noise outside and knew that He Mingcheng had already gotten up.
The kang under me was warm and the fire was lit.
She stretched herself, then got up, packed up and went out.
He Mingcheng was sitting at the door of the stove eating roasted potatoes. When he saw someone coming out, he said, "There's hot water in the thermos."
Chen Yi nodded and went to wash her face.
He Mingcheng started to cook noodles, still using the same small iron pot from yesterday.
After a few minutes, the smell of meat wafted from the room.
Chen Yi came into the room and saw him busy, and asked, "You didn't have breakfast?"
Judging from the time, people should have gotten up a long time ago. They were eating baked potatoes when they first arrived.
He Mingcheng smiled and replied: "I'll wait for you to eat together. I'm not hungry yet."
Chen Yi didn't know what to feel after hearing this. She was obviously hungry, otherwise how could she eat potatoes?
And you said you’re not hungry!
Wait for yourself to have breakfast, and then eat potatoes first when you are hungry.
She pursed her lips and said, "You don't have to wait for me to eat in the future. Can I still starve myself?"
This person is really...
He Mingcheng smiled and nodded. He would never eat alone. He would eat with his wife!
It was almost ten o'clock when the two of them had their meal. It seemed that they only needed to have two meals today.
After He Mingcheng finished his meal, he noticed something was missing in the corner, so he asked, "Where's the sewing machine?"
He was a little surprised. He had indeed placed it in this room before leaving, because Chen Yi's room was too small, and after putting the wardrobe in it, he could only put a small table in it.
Because he wanted to make a table, but he didn't have time, so he hasn't done it yet.
Chen Yi put the sewing machine in the space. When she heard what he said, she said, "Oh, I put it in my room. I have learned how to make clothes now, so it is more convenient to put it there."
I forgot about this and put it in the space because it was convenient.
He Mingcheng came back so suddenly last night that nothing was done.
It seems that she should prepare a sewing machine in the space, otherwise what would happen if she was discovered one day?
He Mingcheng nodded without asking any more questions, but said solemnly: "Chen Yi, I want to discuss something with you."
Seeing his serious expression, Chen Yi sat on the kang and said, "Go ahead."
At the same time, she was curious about what was so serious.
He Mingcheng didn't say anything immediately, but was stunned for a while, not knowing what he was thinking.
Chen Yi didn't disturb him. It seemed that this matter was very serious, otherwise she wouldn't have such an attitude.
After a while.
He Mingcheng seemed to have struggled with his thoughts for a long time before he mustered up the courage to speak.
"Chen Yi, I know you didn't marry me just because you like me."
"Although you may not know it, I like you very much and I am happy to marry you."
"Even though you have no feelings for me, I still want to protect you. If I can, I am willing to protect you for the rest of my life."
As he spoke, he kept looking at Chen Yi with sincere eyes.
His tone was equally heartfelt, and at the same time, he was a little sad.
Because the person he likes doesn't like himself.
Seeing him like this, Chen Yi couldn't help but feel sad. The two of them had been together for such a long time, and she wasn't a heartless person, so she had already developed some feelings for him.
She knew that she had a good impression of He Mingcheng, otherwise she would not have agreed to get married.
In fact, I just made excuses for myself before, and it was just coercion on the surface.
Chen Yi knew in her heart that although her feelings for He Mingcheng were not very deep, she was willing to interact with him and was not averse to his existence.
Especially since other people treat her so well and take care of her in every aspect of life.
This touched her deeply.
Of course, her feelings for He Mingcheng are not just about being touched, that would not be love.
He Mingcheng didn't wait for her response, but took a deep breath and continued: "I don't know what you think, but these are my sincere words."
"I don't know how to express it, but since I had you, I feel that home is a beautiful place."
"It's beautiful because you are here!"
