Shen Qingli, who always slept well, said it was okay, but she suffered from insomnia the night Meng Xiao left.
I was used to having someone next to me and used to nestling in Meng Xiao's arms. When that person was not around, I suddenly felt very lonely. The room was cold, the quilt was cold, and I didn't feel safe even when hugging Naitang.
She touched the birthmark and slipped into the space holding the candy. She decided to stay in the space for a few days when Meng Xiao was not at home. When he was not around, only staying in the space would make her feel safe.
Shen Qingli was lying on the bed in the space house. One sheep, two sheep, three sheep, four sheep, five sheep... seventy-three sheep, seventy-four sheep, seventy-five sheep...
She herself didn't know when she fell asleep and had no recollection of it.
She only knew that she had a dream about two chubby babies holding hands. They were so beautiful that she couldn't tell whether they were boys or girls. She was about to ask them if they were her babies when she was woken by a knock on the door outside.
She dazedly left the space, put on her clothes, and went to open the door. Seeing Liu Yun standing outside, she asked, "What's wrong, sister-in-law?"
She pinched herself gently and cheered herself up a little.
"You were sleeping, did I disturb you? I'm sorry, Qingli."
Liu Yun didn't expect that she was still sleeping. It was already noon, and no one in the family compound could sleep until now.
"It's okay, sister-in-law, is there anything wrong?"
She asked patiently.
"Nothing, I just brought you some pickled vegetables I made myself, including pickled garlic, chili peppers, and radish. I used to eat these when I was pregnant and had no appetite. They go well with rice. Everyone who has tried them says they are delicious."
Liu Yun handed her the bowl. Shen Qingli looked at the bright pickles and felt a little greedy. She took it with both hands.
"Sister-in-law, I won't be polite to you. This looks delicious. Wait a minute, I'll find a plate to free up the bowl."
"Okay, no rush. But don't eat too much of this pickled food at once. It will make you feel uncomfortable if you eat too much. Just eat it with some rice."
Liu Yun was a little hesitant before coming. On the one hand, she wanted to let Shen Qingli taste the pickles she made, as they would live next to each other in the future. On the other hand, she was worried that this delicate young lady from the city would not be able to get used to it and would not like it.
It was the head of the household who persuaded her that Meng Xiao and Shen Qingli were not the type of people who looked down on others, and told her to go ahead and send it to Shen Qingli. Only then did she feel at ease to send it.
"Thank you, sister-in-law. I packed some fried carrot balls for you. You can go back and share them with your family."
Seeing the bowl full of meatballs, Liu Yun was anxious:
"Hey, I brought you some pickles, which are not worth much, why did you give me a big bowl of meatballs? No, no, I definitely can't have it, keep it for yourself."
She was anxious! She came to give her some pickles, not to ask for anything!
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. I fried these meatballs yesterday. Meng Xiao went on a mission yesterday, so they won't be tasty when he comes back. Let's not waste them. Just take them. My fried meatballs are delicious too. Take them, take them, or I won't have the pickles anymore."
Under Shen Qingli's persuasion, Liu Yun walked away with a big bowl of fried meatballs, looking back every few steps.
I went home and was still upset. What the hell happened?! I went to deliver something but instead brought back a big bowl of meatballs.
She felt embarrassed.
After Liu Yun left, Shen Qingli was no longer sleepy. He took a bottle of instant bird's nest from the space and went to the kitchen to warm it with warm water. He really didn't know what to eat, so he hesitated for a long time and cooked himself a bowl of snail noodles.
I've been craving this lately. It's so cold, it's so fun to eat noodles.
Bird's nest with snail noodles, Shen Qingli thought she was the only one who had never had such a dish before or since.
She wanted to eat quickly, but the food was too hot, so she had no choice but to move a chair, remove the cushion, and place it at the door, and then move a small stool in front of the chair.
Hey! A simple version of a small dining table is ready!
Shen Qingli thought: It would be great if Meng Xiaoxiao was here. If he were here, he would definitely praise her for being so smart.
Just as the food was served and I sat down and picked up my chopsticks, before I started eating, I saw Sang Yuan jogging towards me. When he saw Shen Qingli, he waved to her.
"Sister-in-law! I'm here to bring you food."
Oh my god, why is this kid always making such a fuss? Luckily there's no one around, otherwise it would be really annoying.
Sang Yuan ran into the yard, holding up the lunch box in his hand. "This is the captain's lunch box, sister-in-law. Before he left yesterday, the captain told me to bring you lunch every day at noon."
"He didn't even tell me. Thank you for your hard work, Sang Yuan. Please sit down and take a rest. Have you eaten?" Shen Qingli took the lunch box and poured him a glass of water.
"Sister-in-law, please clear out your lunch box. I have to go back to eat. If I go too late, there will be no food.
Sister-in-law, you... the captain is not at home, what you are eating... you should eat your meal quickly, don't eat this stinky food. "
Sang Yuan frowned when he saw what was in the bowl.
It smells so bad. Meng Tuan is not at home. My sister-in-law feels so pitiful.
"This smells bad, but tastes delicious. Don't rush back. Eat it here. I'm afraid there will be no food left by the time you get back. I've prepared this too. If you can't finish it, your food will be wasted."
Sang Yuan scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed to say that he was not full with that little meal... Meng Tuan had instructed him to only give him a fistful of rice and some dishes, and he had strictly followed Meng Tuan's standards in preparing the meal.
Seeing that he was a little embarrassed, Shen Qingli walked over and opened the lunch box, and suddenly seemed to understand something.
"Sang Yuan, is this amount of food not enough for you?"
Sang Yuan blushed with embarrassment.
"Would you like to try the powder I made? I haven't eaten it yet. It's clean."
Shen Qingli's eyes lit up when she saw the bowl of snail noodles. She liked to recommend snail noodles to others. After eating it once or twice, you will become addicted to it and want to eat it again. Meng Xiao likes it very much now.
