Chapter 97
"So many?"
Tang Wan was very surprised. These were not just a few beans, but a whole basket full of them.
"I exchanged it from my hometown."
Lu Huaili still remembered the last time Tang Wan gave her grapes, and she was not someone who liked to take advantage.
What's more, this person is her third sister-in-law.
"Then I'll make it into sour beans."
Tang Wan thought for a moment and said to Lu Huaijing, "Didn't you catch fish last night?
Catch one for Huai Li. Children will become smarter if they eat more fish. "
“No, no.”
Lu Huaili felt a little embarrassed. Fish is more valuable than beans, and her sister-in-law is too good to her.
She subconsciously thought of her other two sisters-in-law at home, and the eldest sister-in-law was searching everywhere.
When she got married, her mother prepared a dowry for her, and her sister-in-law was so angry that she refused to talk to her for a long time.
The second sister-in-law was better, but she was very arrogant and didn't seem to be happy to interact with them.
But my third sister-in-law is not what I thought before.
"Your sister-in-law asked you to take it, so just keep it."
Lu Huaijing put the fish into a plastic bag. Fearing that the fish would suffocate, he considerately filled the bag with some water.
Since it was Tang Wan who spoke, Lu Huaili did not refuse anymore, but saw doubt in Lu Huaijing's eyes.
"You're taking a day off today?"
"Um."
Lu Huaijing nodded, "I just came back from a mission, and I'm taking a day off."
"Then you guys can come to my house for lunch at noon. Niuniu hasn't met her aunt yet."
Lu Huaili was once again uncharacteristically friendly, which Lu Huaijing found extremely strange.
However, he still looked at Tang Wan inquiringly, "Wife, what do you think?"
"OK."
Tang Wan naturally would not refuse. From the current perspective, Lu Huaili is at least less of a worry than the others at home.
See if she can get along with him and if it's appropriate, it wouldn't hurt to move around more.
"Then I'll go home and wait for you guys to come over."
Upon hearing this, Lu Huaili left in a hurry. Since her new sister-in-law was coming to visit, she had to prepare some better pickled vegetables.
Staring at her back, Lu Huaijing was confused, "Has she been here before?"
"Yes."
Tang Wan looked puzzled. Thinking that Lu Huaili had seen her fierce side, she was too embarrassed to tell Lu Huaijing.
However, Lu Huaijing was still very curious, but he held back and didn't ask, he just reminded Tang Wan.
"If Lili makes things difficult for you, you must tell me first."
Could this girl be hiding something bad?
"You don't even trust your own sister?"
Tang Wan burst out laughing, and Lu Huaijing shook his head embarrassedly.
"No one can bully you."
Not even my mother can do that.
"Remember your words."
Tang Wan was in a good mood, and the two of them divided the work. Lu Huaijing washed the dishes, and she took out the dried fish from last night.
For fear of being seen by people in the compound, she quietly asked Lu Huaijing to climb onto the roof and sunbathe at the very top.
Then they started to wash the beans that Lu Huaili brought, while Lu Huaijing was weeding in his private plot.
"Lu Huaijing, do you like sour food?"
Tang Wan put the washed beans in the sun to dry them, and Lu Huaijing answered without turning his head.
“Sour cabbage goes well with rice.”
"Then I'll make some pickled radish."
Tang Wan took out two large radishes, washed them, and dried them, then asked Lu Huaijing to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy two clay pots.
She took advantage of Lu Huaijing's visit to the supply and marketing cooperative to go to the space, but there were no fish in the fish pond in the space.
She could only go to the field to pick some spinach, chop it up and sprinkle it into the fish pond.
Sure enough, the fish went crazy grabbing the spinach she poured in.
After finishing all these, she looked at the cabbages growing in the space and suddenly thought of the kimchi she had eaten in her previous life.
She can make kimchi.
Thinking of this, Tang Wan quickly picked two cabbages, washed them and dried them, then she prepared the seasoning.
At this time, Lu Huaijing came back on a bicycle with a tile pot tied to the back of the bicycle.
There was another one he was holding, and he rode very slowly for fear of breaking the altar.
"Daughter-in-law."
Lu Huaijing moved the altar into the kitchen, which looked dusty.
The beans and radishes had been dried, and Tang Wan was busy making sauerkraut. When she looked down, she saw a package of something in the jar.
She took it out and opened it, and inside were some beautiful hairs, a box of vanishing cream and a box of colorful skin lotion.
"Do you like it?"
Lu Huaijing is not a careful man, but when his dark eyes stared at her seriously, Tang Wan felt uncomfortable.
"like."
"I heard from the members of the supply and marketing cooperative that many female comrades use vanishing cream. You can use it first, and I will buy you a better one later."
Lu Huaijing didn't pay much attention to Tang Wan wiping her face and thought she was always wearing no makeup.
Of course Tang Wan would not tell him that she was using the skin care products from her previous life in the Space Mall.
She smiled and said, "I'll make you something delicious."
She thought that every woman would be happy to receive a gift, and she was no exception.
Even the fatigue from last night was dispelled a lot.
"good."
Lu Huaijing also grinned and happily helped Tang Wan.
After pickling the sour radishes and sour beans, Tang Wan made kimchi.
These cannot be eaten for the time being. After all this busy work, it’s already noon.
Tang Zhou came back from outside with a small basket on his back, "Sister, I picked some wild vegetables."
Since his sister was not around, he didn't dare go into the mountains, so he and Shengli picked some wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain.
"Wash your face. We'll go visit your brother-in-law and sister's relatives later."
"ah?"
Tang Zhou looked at Lu Huaijing blankly, "Brother-in-law, you and sister go, I'll be at home."
It doesn't seem right to bring him along when my sister and brother-in-law are visiting relatives.
"Together."
Lu Huaijing pinched Tang Zhou's cheek, and Tang Zhou instantly lost the desire to resist.
He happily put down the backpack and jumped to wash his hands and face.
Tang Wan put some White Rabbit snacks and half a bag of brown sugar in the basket and asked Lu Huaijing.
"Would you like to get something else?"
"That's enough." Lu Huaijing was not completely ignorant of these human relationships.
This gift is considered very generous in the entire compound.
Since Lu Huaijing approved, Tang Wan naturally didn't put anything else there, and they all stayed in one compound.
It’s just that Lu Huaijing and his family lived in a tube-shaped building, so they had to walk there.
This was Tang Wan's first time to come to the tube-shaped building, which was not as spacious and independent as their small courtyard.
The tube-shaped buildings here are not high, with only four floors, and the rooms in a row are all single rooms and not very big.
Lu Huaili and her family live on the second floor. It is dinner time now, and many people cook in the corridor outside their homes.
Seeing that it was them, many people nodded slightly to Lu Huaijing, "Deputy Captain Lu, come to see your sister."
"This must be my sister-in-law. She's really pretty."
"Hello, sister-in-law."
“…”
Lu Huaijing walked in front holding Tang Zhou's hand, and Tang Wan followed closely behind them.
Fortunately, we soon arrived at Lu Huaili's house, which seemed to be a single room of only 20 to 30 square meters.
Lu Huaili was standing there cutting vegetables, with a little girl in a bamboo stroller.
The child looked to be only about ten months old. He was babbling and playing with a round bamboo ball in his hand.
