After leaving Qiao Lanlan's house, Su Ying asked the four children to play at home and went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy vegetables. The pork had been sold out, but there was still half a pig liver. No ticket was required, so she took it all.
I also bought a big fresh hairtail, a pot of clams, six tomatoes, and twenty eggs.
There are also pineapples for sale at the fruit stalls.
Su Ying had seen pineapple shrimp in a cookbook but had never tasted it, so she decided to buy some to try, and then bought a pound of shrimp and a handful of water spinach.
This way lunch would be very sumptuous, and Su Ying was really generous when it came to food.
After buying the groceries, I was about to take the bus back to my family compound when a reserved voice called me, "Comrade, wait a minute."
Su Ying didn't know her, but it was obvious that the lesbian was coming for her.
Su Ying took a look at her and thought she was a pretty lady, but she was far inferior to herself.
The woman also realized that she could not compare to Su Ying in terms of appearance, and the aura around her instantly turned red, which was filled with jealousy and aggression.
Su Ying would naturally not give her a good face, "Who are you? What do you want from me? Tell me quickly. I'm in a hurry to go home and cook."
Duan Chuxia was a little hurt by the questioning and said, "You must be Su Ying, right? I am Han Jingyuan's ex-wife, and I want to talk to you."
Han Jingyuan mentioned to Su Ying his ex-wife, with whom he had an arranged marriage. The Duan family didn't want their precious daughter to go to the countryside, so they found a partner for her.
Han Jingyuan's father died early, his grandfather was bedridden, and his brother and sister-in-law died that year, leaving behind six-year-old Han Jingchen and two-year-old Han Xinxing.
The Duan family and the Han family are old friends. Han Jingyuan's biological mother privately agreed to the Duan family's proposal of marriage. When Han Jingyuan received the notice, his biological mother had already sent out the invitations.
Han Jingyuan refused without even thinking about it.
But Duan Chuxia found Han Jingyuan and proposed a marriage agreement. Duan Chuxia would not have to go to the countryside and could help him take care of his two children.
Han Jingyuan considered it and agreed.
Just before the two children were abducted, Duan Chuxia suddenly filed for a divorce, and Han Jingyuan immediately agreed.
Han Jingyuan told Su Ying about what happened later. When he submitted his divorce report to the army, Han Xinxing and Han Jingchen were abducted from their home by Duan Chuxia's good friend and human traffickers.
Later during the interrogation, her best friend said that Duan Chuxia regretted her decision and did not want to divorce. She was confused for a moment and thought that if she abducted the child, Han Jingyuan would never be able to get along with Duan Chuxia again. She did the wrong thing out of jealousy and confusion.
Su Ying said: "What are we talking about? Han Jingyuan? No need for that. I sleep with him every day now. If I want to know more about Han Jingyuan, I can't ask myself."
Duan Chuxia was speechless, and after thinking for a while, she said, "We are all women. I just want to remind you that Han Jingyuan is frigid, so you should make plans early."
Ran more than a thousand kilometers just to tell her that Han Jingyuan was sexually frigid?
Su Ying held her lower back and rubbed it a few times, then responded with open sarcasm.
"Han Jingyuan is very strong. He made me unable to get out of bed this morning. You deliberately came to me to spread rumors about my ex-husband. Can I understand that you said the meat was sour because you couldn't eat it?"
Duan Chuxia's face flushed red. This woman was too shameless. How could she have the nerve to show off her **.
"I...you are so shameless."
Su Ying said, "What do you mean by 'I'? You are shameless. You came to me directly to provoke me. And you still expect me to be nice to you and give you face."
As they are both exes, Gu Chengfeng's approach is much more appropriate.
Duan Chuxia didn't believe that Su Ying had slept with Han Jingyuan. Han Jingyuan was a cold person. During the six years of their marriage by agreement, she tried to get close to him several times, but before she could touch Han Jingyuan's clothes, the man ran away.
"Did Han Jingyuan really share a room with you?"
Su Ying rolled her eyes. "What do you think? You asked and I told you. Believe it or not, why don't you ask Han Jingyuan yourself and ask him why he doesn't want to touch you but is willing to sleep with me?"
Duan Chuxia gritted her teeth and said, "You are so shameless."
Su Ying: "It's really funny. You were the one who asked, and I answered, and you said I was shameless. Who is shameless? You decide for yourself."
…
Because of this delay, when Su Ying came back, the house had been renovated.
Lao Ding also moved away the broken bricks that were used to break the wall and swept away the dust.
No wonder they say older men are more reliable. He is really considerate and even helped her look after the children at home.
Su Ying quickly thanked him, "Brother Ding, thank you so much for troubling you."
Ding Chong was really impressed by the two girls on the blind date. Su Ying didn't know what embarrassment was at all, and Qiao Lanlan didn't care about the opinions of the women in the family compound.
Not only did he move next door to Su Ying's house, he also took the initiative to ask him to come and help Su Ying's family.
After helping him, she said Su Ying would be back soon. We would be neighbors from now on, and it would be rude for her to leave without saying goodbye. She asked him to wait a little longer.
He could only say openly: "The door frame is ready. You can hang a curtain first. When the door is ready in a few days, I will help you install it."
"Okay, I have to trouble Brother Ding again. You and Lanlan are busy moving, so why don't you have lunch at my house?"
Ding Chong was speechless. Han Jingyuan was not at home at noon. It felt weird that he invited his former blind date to dinner on the second day after moving into the new house.
He postponed, "No, Lanlan cooked at home. The furniture delivery guy just came. I asked a few kids and arranged it according to their requirements."
"Okay, I'll invite you guys over for dinner next time."
After seeing Lao Ding off, Su Ying cooked according to the recipe.
She used to study medicine with her grandfather and father, but because of her father's death, she gave up medicine and became an apprentice in the kitchen of Friendship Hotel. The master chef refused to teach her and treated her like a vegetable cutter.
Over the years, I have perfected my knife skills, and I heard from Gu Zhinan that I can cook delicious food too.
Su Ying had mastered cooking skills quite well in the other world because the ingredients were so poor. According to the recipes she had collected in the other world, the food she cooked should not be bad.
She steamed a pot of rice, sliced the hairtail fish and cut it into small pieces. Fresh hairtail fish is very delicious, and the sliced fish meat has no bones. She first put it in a pan and fried it into a golden color with a peppery aroma.
The fish was fried and a few children came back from next door after smelling the aroma.
"Mom, what delicious food are you going to make?" Han Xinxing swallowed his saliva.
“Make some hairtail fish and egg fried rice.”
Because there was no fresh seafood inland, Gu Zhinan had only tasted the salted hairtail shipped from the frozen warehouse, and had never tasted fresh ones.
He thought the hairtail fried rice might not taste good.
But my sister poured all the oil she bought yesterday into the pan to fry the hairtail fish. She used so much oil, but she had to say it tasted good even though it didn’t taste good.
After frying the hairtail fish, Su Ying cracked five eggs in one go.
Han Jingchen ran to the kitchen and began to regret looking at the eggs in the pot, "Second Aunt, five eggs are too many."
Su Ying poured the pre-steamed rice into the pot and stir-fried it, saying, "It's not much. There are five of us eating at noon, so adding five eggs, one for each person, is just right. I'm already very frugal."
Han Jingchen counted in his mind, okay, I kicked him out, so I really won’t treat him to any food, right?
There are also adults like this who would argue with a child like him. As a real man, he would not be greedy.
"Humph, if you don't want to eat, then don't eat."
Han Jingchen angrily picked up his lunch box and food coupons and ran to the cafeteria.
Su Ying skillfully made a tomato and pork liver soup, a scallion-flavored clam, and then a bowl of fried rice with spicy hairtail eggs for each person. She controlled the portions very well, making it exactly five bowls.
Gu Zhinan held the bowl with some hesitation, "Sister, are you really not going to care about Han Jingchen?"
"We agreed last night that he chose to eat in the cafeteria. Your brother-in-law watched him from beginning to end. Are you still afraid that he will complain? Come and eat quickly. I will grill pineapple shrimp for you tonight."
When they heard that there would be delicious food in the evening, Xingxing and Cancan started eating.
After eating a big bowl of fried rice with their mouths full of oil, they drank a bowl of pork liver soup and ate a few clams. The two girls leaned back in the recliners and rubbed their stomachs in satisfaction.
“Mom’s cooking is so delicious.”
Even Gu Zhinan felt that his sister’s cooking skills had improved after she lost her memory.
…
While everyone here was enjoying their meal, Han Jingchen was queuing up for food in an angry mood. He was seen by Qiao Jiuxiang, who still didn't want to cook.
After all, Han Jingchen had lived in Qiao Jiuxiang's house for two days. She hurriedly went up to the child and asked, "Jingchen, why did you come to the cafeteria to eat alone? Didn't Su Ying cook for you? Where's your sister?"
Han Jingchen was angry and said unhappily, "They are not hungry. They are all eating delicious food at home."
That fried rice with hairtail eggs smelled really good, but he had never eaten it before.
Second Aunt really didn't invite him to eat. He had made such a big promise last night, so how could he go back on his word?
So angry.
Qiao Jiuxiang didn't know the inside story and thought that Su Ying was deliberately not giving Han Jingchen food and was abusing the child.
She sighed and complained to Master Pang at the window, "Look, it's only the second day and they don't give the child any food. That's why I didn't introduce Su Ying to Han Jingyuan. They are not suitable at all."
Master Pang, a quartermaster who didn't like to get involved in the family affairs of the family compound, advised: "Maybe there is something hidden. Director Qiao should not worry about it."
At this point, Qiao Jiuxiang could only save face for himself, "I don't care, but to be honest, Lao Ding is still caring. Lao Ding has a high position and a high salary. In fact, it's not a bad choice for Lanlan to choose him."
Pang Zaiming echoed her words, "That's right. Old Ding came to buy breakfast early in the morning, saying that he wanted Lanlan to sleep a little longer. An old man knows how to care for others. Which man in this family compound can be as considerate as Old Ding?"
In fact, Han Jingyuan came to the cafeteria with Lao Ding to buy breakfast in the morning, but Pang Zaiming would not tell it in front of Director Qiao.
Girls love to be coquettish. If he were a woman, she would also choose Captain Han, who is so handsome.
Qiao Jiuxiang was in a good mood after returning home. Ji Pingliang saw that there was braised pork, so he took advantage of the situation and asked his wife what good news was.
Qiao Jiuxiang stopped laughing and said, "I ran into Jingchen in the cafeteria. Poor kid, I don't know how he offended Su Ying. He didn't get any lunch at noon, so he had to eat in the cafeteria. When you return to the army this afternoon, you must tell Han Jingyuan about this."
Ji Pingliang thought, it’s not a big deal, it must be the naughty kid’s own fault.
"It's not a good idea for us to interfere with other people's children."
Qiao Jiuxiang threw her chopsticks and found her husband's nose and eyes to be not the same, and she was not happy with everything about him.
"I didn't say anything about it. She abused the child. We can't pretend to be blind when we see it. We have to tell the child's uncle."
Ji Pingliang couldn't afford to offend his own wife, "Okay, I will definitely tell Han Jingyuan."
It was not until the evening, when Ji Pingliang saw that he could not delay any longer, that he called Han Jingyuan over from the training ground.
"The political commissar wants to see me for something?" Han Jingyuan asked.
Ji Pingliang smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not complaining to you. It's your sister-in-law who insisted that I tell you."
Because of Han Jingyuan and Lao Ding's marriage, Ji Pingliang has been sitting on the bench for several days. His old waist can't take it anymore.
Han Jingyuan felt apologetic and said, "Political Commissar, please speak."
"Your sister-in-law saw Jingchen go to the cafeteria alone at noon today."
"That's it?"
Han Jingyuan laughed and told Su Ying about how Han Jingchen was stubborn and had a fight with Su Ying last night.
Ji Pingliang also has a son, and he knows how annoying rebellious teenagers can be. He said angrily, "You little brat, just go hungry for a few meals."
Anyway, he is just a messenger, but there is one thing that his wife should remind Han Jingyuan even if she doesn't remind him.
"Your ex-wife came to South Island. She talked to Su Ying for a long time at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative. Then she went to find your sister-in-law and said she wanted to meet you to discuss something. Your sister-in-law asked me to remind you that your ex-wife lives in the guesthouse. If you go to see her, don't let Su Ying know."
Han Jingyuan was annoyed, "No."
The Han family has nothing to do with the Duan family anymore.
Ji Pingliang guessed that Han Jingyuan would not go to see him. After all, Han Jingchen and Han Xinxing were abducted by human traffickers because of Han Jingyuan's ex-wife.
He said, "But those gossipers in the family compound have seen your ex-wife looking for you, and the rumors must have spread everywhere. Have you thought about how to explain it to Su Ying?"
Ji Pingliang thought to herself, which woman wouldn't be jealous? Moreover, right after the wedding, her husband's ex-wife came to the door to protest. Han Jingyuan was bound to be left on the bench for a few days.
Han Jingyuan checked the time and said, "I've almost finished with the new recruits. I'll go back first and continue my wedding leave tomorrow."
A person has three days of wedding leave. The collective wedding counts as one day. If he comes to work overtime today, he will have another day tomorrow.
Ji Pingliang said, "Okay, but if you go back so late, you will definitely be locked out. It's better to go back tomorrow morning.
Han Jingyuan thought about it and thought, "Let's go back at night."
