She turned to Lu Huai'an and said affectionately, "Don't mind your regimental commander. It's a good thing that you love your wife. Let's eat."
With Wang Fang enlivening the atmosphere, everyone started eating again.
No one paid any attention to Huo Jun and Liu Cuicui, who both had stern faces.
Regardless of the taste, Su Wantang's four meat dishes and three vegetable dishes were outstanding for a housewarming banquet. Not to mention that she was worried about being criticized by Lu Huai'an's sisters-in-law, so she made sure the portions of meat and vegetables were very generous.
Because of that, no one will find fault with her.
Not to mention, Su Wantang's cooking skills were exceptional; everyone ate so much they couldn't stop, yet they still took the time to sincerely praise her.
"Sister-in-law, your cooking is so delicious, even better than what we eat at state-run restaurants."
"Yes, sister-in-law, can you come again next time?"
"able."
"Auntie, I want to come too."
"Auntie, me too."
"Okay, everyone come on over."
Lu Huai'an suddenly chimed in, "Wantang, it's delicious."
"Yo yo yo".
Immediately, a commotion broke out at the dinner table.
Upon seeing this, Liu Cuicui clenched her fists.
It wasn't like this in my past life.
Although they held a housewarming party due to pressure from their superiors, Li Hu and the others just ate in silence. Apart from calling her "sister-in-law" when they entered, they had cold faces the whole time and didn't like her at all.
Suddenly, Huo Jun's gloomy voice came from beside me.
"You regret it?"
“How could that be?” Liu Cuicui retorted shrilly.
Her voice immediately drew everyone's attention.
Huo Jun placed a piece of meat into Liu Cuicui's bowl with his chopsticks, smoothing things over by saying, "My cousin's cooking is indeed very delicious; Cuicui is quite surprised."
Hearing Huo Jun say that, Liu Cuicui picked up the meat and forced a smile, saying, "It really is delicious."
Although it didn't seem like the case, no one pressed the issue.
The meat melts in your mouth.
Liu Cuicui couldn't resist and picked up four or five more pieces.
She scoffed inwardly.
Su Wantang might be able to cook, but she could never cook this well!
No wonder it received unanimous praise; how could the food made by the chef of a state-run restaurant not be delicious?
No, she has to do it the same way when she hosts her housewarming party. She can't let Su Wantang outdo her!
Seeing her like this, everyone believed what she had just said.
Huo Jun felt a little embarrassed. Although he also thought Su Wantang's food was delicious, Liu Cuicui's behavior made him feel ashamed. However, when he looked up and saw everyone's chopsticks flying, he didn't say anything, but just sped up his eating.
After dinner, Liu Cuicui offered to help wash the dishes, and Su Wantang couldn't help but glance at her a few more times.
It would be strange if Liu Cuicui were that kind-hearted.
With so many people around, Su Wantang couldn't refuse, but she remained on guard.
But Su Wantang didn't expect that when she entered the kitchen, Liu Cuicui didn't come after her, but instead attacked her instead.
A crisp bang.
The plate broke, splattering oil all over Liu Cuicui.
"Wantang, my clothes are dirty. Let me go to your room to change."
As she spoke, she rushed out of the kitchen.
A vague thought flashed through my mind.
As soon as Su Wantang stepped out of the kitchen, she heard a piercing scream.
"ah!"
Liu Cuicui's shout brought everyone together.
But everyone heard her say "change clothes," so Wang Fang went first to take a look and, finding no problem, the others went forward.
The door was completely opened.
As she passed through the crowd, Liu Cuicui's gaze settled on Su Wantang.
"Wantang, why are you sleeping in a separate bed from Battalion Commander Lu?"
"Could it be that Battalion Commander Lu dislikes your capitalist status and doesn't want to touch you? Or is Battalion Commander Lu impotent?" Liu Cuicui asked innocently.
Su Wantang suddenly realized.
She finally realized what Liu Cuicui was up to.
In his past life, Lu Huai'an had a white moonlight in his heart, and probably never touched Liu Cuicui. So today, Liu Cuicui deliberately brought this up to embarrass her.
Logically speaking, this is a private matter between the couple, and Li Lei shouldn't have said anything. But this has already crossed the line, and it also involves issues of class background and conduct.
He cleared his throat and said, "Huai'an, this is not right of you, marriage report—"
Lu Huai'an interrupted Li Lei, taking full responsibility upon himself and giving Su Wantang face.
"Commander, it was indeed my fault. I shouldn't have argued with my wife and moved back to the dormitory in a fit of anger. I now know I was wrong, but I don't know if Wantang is still angry with me? Is she willing to let me move back?"
"Yes, if you know you're wrong, just correct it."
Li Lei patted Lu Huai'an on the shoulder, then winked at Wang Fang, signaling her to talk to Su Wantang.
Then he took a group of men out of the house to chat.
In her previous life, Su Wantang had witnessed the two-faced nature of Huo Jun's wives, who were like two people to his face and behind his back. So she was prepared for them to ridicule and mock her after her husband left, but she didn't expect them to treat her the same way.
"Wantang, it's true that men need to be disciplined when they misbehave, but there's no need to rush back to the dorm and make a fool of yourself," Wang Fang said pointedly.
Wu Xiu teased Zhou Tian in her arms, and the next second, she heard little Tian Tian speak in a clear voice.
"Aunt Wang, are you talking about this auntie? She was the loudest just now, and she even laughed!"
"Tian Tian is amazing, she can actually say such a long sentence in one breath." Wu Xiuming praised his daughter, but actually made a veiled criticism of Liu Cuicui.
She added, "Wantang, next time make Lu Ying sleep on the bed board, let him shiver in the cold, and see if he dares to make you angry again!"
Su Wantang felt a warmth in her heart: "Okay."
The three men clearly excluded her and made veiled insults, which made Liu Cuicui's face turn green.
But nobody paid any attention to her.
In short, Liu Cuicui ate this meal in a very humiliating way.
Once home, she suddenly said to Huo Jun.
