Chapter 324: Who likes a love rival?
Fortunately, Lu Beiye came back at this time. After hearing what Xue Bao said, he grabbed a ball of snow, made a new snowman, bent down and handed it to her.
"This is for you."
"Those belong to your aunt."
Olaf happily took the snowman and said, "Thank you, Uncle Lu."
Yuan Fang and Lin Xiu Lian gave Wen Jiu an ambiguous look, said hello to Lu Beiye, and took their children home.
Lu Beiye stood up, brushed the snow off his hands, and dragged himself back to the house, holding Wen Jiu's arm.
"What are you standing there for?"
“I don’t even have a coat on!”
Wen Jiu said shyly, "Why did you say that in front of them?"
That tone is too indulgent!
Treat her like a child.
She was so embarrassed!
Lu Beiye didn't think it was a big deal, "Are you willing to give the snowman to Olaf?"
Wenjiu shook his head, "I can't bear to leave."
Lu Beiye said: "That's it? I helped you solve the problem and you still blame me?"
"He has no conscience."
He pinched Wenjiu's face and said, "What do you want to eat for lunch? I'll make it for you."
Wen Jiu slapped his hand away and protested, "Why do you always like me to pinch my face?"
"Don't pinch me anymore."
"Rice, fried bean paste and sour vegetables."
"I can pinch it if I want."
Lu Beiye ignored Wenjiu's protest and raised his other hand to pinch the other half of her face as if to provoke her, "So soft."
After pinching the things, he took off his coat and hung it up, took off his scarf and hat and stuffed them into his wine pocket, rolled up his sleeves, turned around and went to the kitchen to cook.
It’s cold in winter so meat doesn’t spoil easily, plus frozen meat is not easy to thaw, so the meat we bought recently is strung together with a rope and hung on the kitchen window to dry.
Lu Beiye cut a piece of rice with a knife, soaked it in warm water and started to make a fire. When he had enough time, he would cook with firewood, as cooking with firewood was more fragrant and quicker, as he could put the rice in to cook without waiting for the water to boil.
He worked quickly and had the fire lit in just a few minutes.
While the rice was cooking, he cut the softened meat into pieces and fried it with bean paste. He also picked up some sour cowpeas and cabbage from the jar and cut them up and fried them.
Cook with a wood stove and stir-fry with a kerosene stove, and the meal will be ready soon.
Knowing that Wenjiu liked to eat hotpot, he steamed the rice for a little longer.
The soy bean paste hotpot is delicious.
I ate the warm wine with gusto. When my mouth felt a little dry, I drank some rice soup. My cheeks were swollen from eating so much.
Lu Beiye was particularly satisfied when he saw Wenjiu's face, which was obviously rounder than when he just got married, and felt that his efforts were not in vain.
Only fair and plump people are beautiful.
Wen Jiu suddenly remembered something, "Didn't Qiao Wei say last night that we should all go to her house for dinner tonight? The snow will melt in the afternoon and the roads will be very slippery. We definitely can't go there. Remember to tell Brother Qiao."
The roads from the military base to the town are all dirt roads, and vehicles cannot move during heavy rain or snow.
Lu Beiye said: "He told me that we can talk about the meal another day."
Wenjiu nodded in relief and continued to concentrate on the wok in his hand. It was delicious to use the wok to pick up the bean paste, but the juice in the bean paste would easily leak everywhere.
She was eating happily when she suddenly heard Lu Beiye say, "He is older than him, it is not appropriate for you to call him brother."
So what is appropriate?
He paused while warming his wine and eating his hot pot, then looked up at Lu Beiye who was teasing him on purpose, "Then I can't call him by his name, right?"
"It seems a bit too intimate!"
Lu Beiye said in a deep voice: "Don't you know how the sisters-in-law in the courtyard call me? You can just call him Captain Qiao."
"Have you finished eating?"
"I'll collect the bowls after we finish eating."
"I'm done eating."
Wen Jiu didn't expect that Lu Beiye would be jealous of even a name. It seemed that Qiao Yue was still a thorn in his heart.
It’s all the original owner’s fault!
She was curious about what kind of brain could do such a bizarre thing.
First he committed suicide to force a marriage!
But on the wedding day, she wanted to break off the engagement and marry Qiao Yue who was attending the wedding. When she failed, she abused Lu Beiye...
Is this fucking crazy?
When Lu Beiye came out after washing the dishes, he saw Wen Jiu sitting there in a daze with an expression that was a little hard to describe. He walked over and waved his hand in front of her.
"What are you thinking about?"
Wen Jiu came back to his senses and found an excuse to cover up, "I miss my brother, Xiaoxiao and Brother Xue. When will I have a sister-in-law? How was my brother's mood this morning?"
"Same as yesterday."
"That's not so good then."
"Not very good?" Lu Beiye didn't understand where Wenjiu came to this conclusion.
Wen Jiu explained: "Think about it! Sister Xiaoxiao is so smart, how could she not see that Sister Xiangxiang likes my brother? How do you think Sister Xiaoxiao feels?"
"She even rejected Brother Xue out of consideration for my brother's reputation. She must be holding a grudge! It would be strange if my brother could get anything out of it. I guess his efforts have gone back to the days before liberation."
Who likes a love rival?
Or is he a particularly good rival in love who doesn't quarrel or cause trouble?
It felt like there was a thorn stuck in my throat that I couldn't pull out or swallow.
You can slap a rival in the face if he deliberately stirs up trouble and wants to interfere, but what can you do to someone who has no such intention at all?
Based on her understanding of Liu Xiaoxiao, if she knew that Jiu Xiangxiang had liked her brother for so many years, she would probably feel sorry for her.
A full ten years!
Who wouldn't feel sad?
Lu Beiye understood this time, pinched Wenjiu's cheek and said, "Don't worry, he will definitely be able to solve it himself."
"I'm going to the army now. If you have nothing to do, go back to your room and sleep! You've yawned at least ten times since I came back."
Wen Jiu rolled his eyes at him, "Who to blame?"
"It's all your fault."
Last night, Lu Beiye learned from his experience and was afraid that if he was too harsh, Wen Jiu would run away again, so he changed his strategy and became extra gentle, but the duration did not shorten at all.
Lu Beiye raised his eyebrows, "Do you blame me?"
"I listened to everything."
Wen Jiu thought about his performance last night, and was afraid that Lu Beiye would speak out, so he quickly reached out to cover his mouth to shut him up.
"Hurry up and don't disturb my sleep."
As she spoke, she pushed Lu Beiye out and closed the door.
Lu Beiye looked at the closed door with an indulgent smile on his face.
He reached out and knocked on the door.
“Boom boom boom—”
Wen Jiu said angrily, "What for?"
"My hat, scarf, and coat."
“Wait!”
Soon the door was opened from the inside, Wen Jiu stuffed Lu Beiye's things into his arms and quickly closed the door.
How shameless!
Tell everyone everything!
She was trained by him. He made her feel uncomfortable last night. But she couldn't bring herself to talk to him.
The end result was that the two of them argued until midnight before reaching a consensus.
Holding the army, knot.
