"I made some buns and I'll bring some over for you." Zhao Xingmei put the plate on the table. "Try it. When you're done, bring the plate over to me."
Ye Li blushed: "Thank you, Mom."
"You guys..." Zhao Xingmei looked at her son who was sitting upright and then at her daughter-in-law who was blushing. "Be careful next time. It's not even dark yet... It's lucky I came in. If someone else had seen it, it would have been so embarrassing."
Ye Li: “…”
Jiang Xun said expressionlessly: "No one would come in without knocking! Mom, this is my room, please knock before you come in next time."
"Ah? This..." Zhao Xingmei was speechless after what her son said, "Okay, okay, eat the buns quickly, or they will get cold."
After coming out of her son's room, she went back to her own room and told her husband what she had just seen.
"Don't mention it. My face turned red when I saw that situation... I didn't expect that our son is quite capable. That is to say... his legs are not good either. Ye Li is pressing on his legs like this. Is that okay?"
Wang Jingshan glanced at his wife and said, "You are really meddling in other people's affairs. Some time ago, you were worried about whether your son and his wife had made love, and now you are worried about your son's legs. Isn't it a good thing that your son and his wife are intimate? Why are you worrying about it?"
...
...
"I'm worried because he's our son. If it was someone else's son, why would I worry so much?"
"You don't have to worry about our son. I think the eldest is much more reliable than the second and third."
"That's what you said."
"Eat it quickly, or it won't taste good if it gets cold."
"knew."
As soon as Zhao Xingmei left, Ye Li breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Jiang Xun. When the two looked at each other, she smiled awkwardly.
"Are you shocked?" Jiang Xun asked her.
Ye Li nodded and said embarrassedly: "Being startled is a small matter, but now I have embarrassed myself to my mother..."
"What's there to be ashamed of? We are husband and wife and we are in our own room. We are not stealing or robbing and we are doing it openly. The one who should be embarrassed is mom," Jiang Xun advised her.
Ye Li couldn't help but smiled and nodded, leaning over and kissing his cheek: "Thank you, thank you for considering me."
"You want to thank me?"
Ye Li nodded.
"How can you thank me all at once?" Jiang Xun said as he was about to pull Ye Li into his arms again.
Ye Li was caught off guard and fell heavily into his arms: "Um... your whole body is hard and it hurts."
Jiang Xun looked at her with an ambiguous gaze and said something with a hidden meaning: "You dislike me now, but you won't dislike me in the future."
Ye Li reacted and blushed even more: "Jiang Xun."
"Um?"
"I didn't expect you to be so bad..." I have lived twice and have never seen Jiang Xun like this.
What on earth had happened to her in her previous life? She actually thought this man was taciturn, calm and steady?
The young couple stayed together for a while before having dinner.
The buns were a bit dry, so Ye Li decided to go to the kitchen to make some egg soup.
"It's too hot, so don't go to the kitchen. There's the milk powder Langchuan gave me last time in the cupboard. Make two cups of it," Jiang Xun said.
"That milk powder is for your body, I won't drink it."
"That won't work." Jiang Xun said, "I'm pretty strong, but you... you don't have any flesh on your body, a gust of wind can blow you away. Look at your complexion, you've obviously become much more haggard recently."
Ye Li raised his hand and touched his cheek when he heard this: "Really?"
"I won't lie to you."
Ye Li still cares a lot about her face. Although Jiang Xun is not a "visual animal", she also hopes that she will always be beautiful and look pleasing to the eye.
"Okay, I'll go make the milk powder."
Ye Li first poured two cups of hot water, then took out the milk powder from the cupboard and opened the can. He scooped two spoonfuls of it into the hot water and stirred it slowly.
After the milk powder was ready, he handed a cup to Jiang Xun, covered the remaining milk powder, and put it back in the cabinet and locked it.
Ye Li took a sip of the milk powder, and the taste was so different from the later milk powder, there was really no comparison.
But in this day and age, being able to drink milk powder proves that life is already pretty good.
"Are you used to drinking this?" Seeing Ye Li frowning, Jiang Xun asked her.
Ye Li pouted: "I'm not used to it. I don't like the taste of milk. Can I not drink it?"
Jiang Xun: "It doesn't matter if you're not used to it. You'll get used to it after drinking it a few times."
Ye Li: “…”
This man!
Who said he was not good at speaking?
Not clumsy at all!
The couple was drinking milk powder when there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?" Ye Li put down the cup and went to open the door.
The door opened, and standing at the door were Huang Xiuxiu's two sons.
"Dongliang, Chengcai, why are you here?"
The two brothers looked at each other and sniffed hard.
Instead of answering Ye Li's question, they asked her, "Aunt Ye, what's that smell in your house? Why does it smell so good?"
Ye Li did not tell them that it was milk powder. The two children were very short-sighted. If they knew it was milk powder, they would definitely refuse to leave no matter what.
"Is there something that brought you two here?" Ye Li asked.
"Aunt Ye, my family is out of money. My mother asked me to ask Uncle Jiang to borrow a few dollars for emergency." Li Chengcai said quickly.
Jiang Xun heard this, pushed his wheelchair over and asked him, "Didn't the factory just pay the salary? Your mother has already spent it all?"
"Yes, there is not a penny left at home. Uncle Jiang, can you lend me some money?" Li Chengcai said, lifting up his empty stomach, "Look, I am almost starving."
Jiang Xun said: "Go back and tell your mother that if she needs to borrow money, ask her to come."
"My mother and I are still the same. Uncle Jiang, please give me the money. My mother doesn't need to come." Li Chengcai said.
"That won't do." Ye Li crossed his arms and looked down at Li Chengcai, "You need to write an IOU to borrow money. Can you write one?"
Li Chengcai shook his head: "I can't."
"So ask your mother to come over."
Li Chengcai said quickly: "I can't write, but I can learn! Aunt Ye, how about you write it and I sign my name? Or you write it and I copy it?"
"That won't work!" Ye Li disagreed. "If you borrowed the money on your own initiative and your mother doesn't know about it, who will you blame if she investigates?"
Li Chengcai raised his hand and scratched his head, and said reluctantly: "Then I will go back and call my mother."
"Go ahead."
The two children said they were leaving, but they didn't move at all. They stared at the cup of milk powder on the table.
Seeing this, Ye Li picked up the cup and drank the milk powder in one gulp.
Seeing that there was no hope, Li Chengcai left unhappily.
As soon as he and his brother Dongliang entered the house, he shouted to Huang Xiuxiu, "Mom, Ye Li is drinking milk powder at home again! My brother and I saw it!"
Huang Xiuxiu was steaming cornmeal cakes in the kitchen. When she heard that people were drinking milk, she immediately felt unbalanced: "Little devil, it's only because you married your Uncle Jiang that you have such a good life today! If it was your mother who married your Uncle Jiang, you two would have been living a life of luxury! And it's not her turn, little bitch!"
