Don't hit a smiling person. Although Ye Qing knew what she was thinking, she couldn't give her a cold shoulder when someone offered her something, right?
Ye Lianhua had anticipated this point and came just in time for dinner. Apparently, there was more than one person who wanted to have a meal in advance.
The little boy in her arms smelled the meat and swallowed his saliva: "Mom, I want to eat meat too."
Ye Qing put the big bone in her bowl into a new bowl and handed it to him: "Eat it! This is Auntie's portion, the rest will be used tomorrow! You can satisfy your craving first, and come and eat with Dad tomorrow, okay?"
The little boy stared at Ye Qing with his big black and white eyes, but he didn't dare to take the bowl from Ye Qing's hand. Instead, he looked up at Ye Lianhua.
Ye Lianhua slapped him hard: "You little bastard, you are so greedy!"
The child cried out "wow".
Ye Qing quickly stuffed the bowl into Ye Lianhua's arms, squatted down and coaxed the little boy: "Don't cry, don't cry, this meat is for you. Eat it quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold."
The little boy looked up and saw his mother taking a big bite of the thickest part of the bone, and then she stuffed the bowl into his hands: "Eat it! Thank Aunt Ye quickly."
The little boy sobbed and said, "Thank you, Auntie Ye!"
He held the big bone and didn't look up again. He kept chewing and chewing. All the periosteum on it was chewed away, and he kept licking the little oil left on the bone.
Ye Lianhua watched him chewing the bone and licked her lips constantly, as if she was savoring the taste of the meat.
The little boy was so sweet that even Ye Lianhua couldn't stand it anymore. So, she slapped him on the head again: "You are embarrassing your father! Let's go, go! Go home and eat!"
As he said that, he snatched the bowl from the child's hand and put it on the dining table. He stared at the bone soup noodles in Ye Qing's bowl and swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva.
Ye Qing ignored her, lowered her head and ate, and soon finished.
Seeing that Ye Qing really had no intention of keeping her for dinner, Ye Lianhua pulled the child's hand and walked out, muttering indignantly in her heart.
Why can Sun Fengxia and her child eat here? But my child is only given a piece of bone? Not even much meat!
It's a pity that she came here specially at mealtime! She is so stingy. She bought so many big bones and meat, but she was reluctant to eat them.
After seeing Ye Lianhua off, Ye Qing sighed, "Looks like I have to prepare more for tomorrow. Qin Ye, have you invited Captain Zheng?"
Qin Ye was confused: "Ah? I didn't? I thought you invited her!"
Although Qin Ye and Zheng Peng were both regimental-level cadres, they only met during meetings and were just acquaintances, so he was not invited this time.
Ye Qing slapped her thigh and said, "She's been fooled by the devils! She said she heard it from Old Zheng. I thought you invited Captain Zheng. That's why you asked the child to come along. No need to ask, Ye Lianhua will definitely come tomorrow!"
Qin Ye smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just a matter of an extra pair of chopsticks. Let's eat!"
Sun Fengxia curled her lips and said, "You should take a look at the cabbage she sent. I guess it's not a good thing!"
Ye Qing was full, so she walked to the corner and picked up the cabbage. Just as Sun Fengxia had said, the cabbage had already wilted and felt soft to the touch. It was unknown how long it had been there.
She's really calculating, exchanging a cabbage for a hearty lunch!
