Chapter 87 Who Washes the Dishes
In order to leave a good impression on his future father-in-law and mother-in-law, as well as his eldest and third brothers, Huo Lanci used the simplest ingredients to make several exquisite and delicious dishes.
The Yu couple instantly felt more secure.
Li Xiulan looked at the young man washing dishes with the third child. She pulled her daughter back to the room and asked quietly, "Did he take the initiative to wash dishes before?"
Yu Wanqing nodded: "He always washes the dishes."
At this point, Yu Wanqing said proudly: "Mom, if you look carefully, you will find that your daughter's vision is no worse than yours."
Li Xiulan looked at her daughter and asked, "Do you really like it that much?"
Yu Wanqing nodded: "Mom, you know I am not someone who would mistreat my own people, let alone someone who would let myself be wronged."
"If I hadn't been attracted to him, I wouldn't have dated him."
Li Xiulan nodded to indicate that she understood.
"We will stay here for two days, during which we will observe carefully."
They knew that Mr. Huo was an upright man, but they did not know Huo Lanci as a person, so even if he was really the grandson of an old friend, they had to observe him carefully.
Secretary Zhou knew that Yu's parents were coming, so he told Yu Wanqing not to go patrolling the mountains for the next two days and let his son go with Huo Zhiqing in the evening.
In this way, the son can not only help with the work, but also practice his skills with Huo Zhiqing, and Yu Wanqing can accompany her parents. This is a win-win situation, so why not do it?
After hearing what Secretary Zhou said, Yu Wanqing thanked him repeatedly, then took out a handful of White Rabbit candies from her pocket and stuffed them into Secretary Zhou's pocket: "Secretary and Auntie, Jianhua, please have some candy."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and ran. As she ran, she felt that the scene was a little familiar, as if she had encountered it before.
Guo Hongying's lovely face immediately emerged in her mind. Her action of stuffing White Rabbit candy into Secretary Zhou's cup was exactly the same as Guo Hongying's action of stuffing the candy into her cup.
Secretary Zhou looked at the White Rabbit candy he had taken away and couldn't help but laugh: "Forget it, just take it back to appease Comrade Peiwen."
As for what candy the little brat eats, the delicious ones should be left for his mother first.
When Guo Hongying returned home from work, she learned that Yu Wanqing's parents and brother came to visit her.
She looked at Hongqi and said, "Why don't we send this pheasant to Wanqing? Her parents came over suddenly, and they definitely don't have any good food prepared at home."
Although she also wanted to drink chicken soup, Wan Qing was usually very nice to her and often taught her some principles. Compared to satisfying her wish to drink chicken soup, it was more important to entertain the uncle and aunt of the Yu family.
Zhang Hongqi had no objection, but still reminded Hongying: "The pheasant was caught by Chu Ming. You need to ask for the consent of the person concerned. Do you understand?"
Guo Hongying smiled and nodded: "I can buy it with money and then send it to Wanqing's house."
Zhang Hongqi smiled and looked at the fool: "Don't talk about money, just go and ask if you can give the pheasant to Wan Qing."
If she remembered correctly, two days ago Hongying said during dinner that she hadn't had chicken soup for a long time, and the next day Chuan Ming brought back a pheasant.
It was obvious that Chuan Ming caught the pheasant specially for Hongying. Unfortunately, although Chuan Ming saw clearly in his heart, Hongying was too stubborn to even think about Chuan Ming pleasing her.
Zhang Hongqi felt that he was just a member of the crowd watching them. Well, it was Wan Qing who coined the term "crowd of spectators".
Find some time to tell Wanqing about this so that we can enjoy the fun together.
When Chu Ming came back from fetching water, he saw Guo Hongying standing in the yard. When she saw him, she immediately trotted over to him and said with a smile, "Chu Ming, I want to discuss something with you."
Chuan Ming was a little surprised. What did she need to discuss with him?
He nodded: "Tell me what's the matter."
Guo Hongying pointed to the pheasant with its feet tied in the yard and said, "Wanqing's parents and brother are here. I want to send the pheasant to her as a side dish."
"You hunted the pheasant down, so you have the right to refuse."
Chu Ming looked at her and asked, "If I reject your request, will you be angry?"
"No." Guo Hongying thought Chuan Ming's question was strange. She frowned slightly and said, "The pheasant is yours. How you deal with it is your own business. Why should I be angry?"
Chu Ming suddenly laughed when he heard this. He remembered what that person asked him three years ago: Chu Ming, I am about to graduate from high school, but I haven’t found a job yet. I don’t know what to do then?
Chu Ming, can you help me find a job?
When he first heard these words, he was a little shocked.
Then I told her that I had found a job, but she asked me to give her the job.
Everything is so natural.
Looking at Guo Hongying's confused expression, he suddenly felt very happy.
Yes, the job is his, and how he handles it is his own business. But the woman doesn't think so. She thinks that since he is dating her, he should leave everything to her.
It's really ridiculous.
He said, "Take it."
For him, it was not difficult to hunt a pheasant. He could get one by just walking deep into the mountains for a while.
Giving it willingly and taking it for granted are two completely different things.
Guo Hongying smiled and said, "Thank you. I'll buy some meat from the state-owned restaurant and treat you to a meal some other day."
Chu Ming smiled and nodded: "Okay."
Guo Hongying happily took the pheasant and ran towards Yu Wanqing's house. Zhang Hongqi looked at Chu Ming and asked, "Aren't you afraid that you will spoil her habit?"
Chu Ming looked over and met Zhang Hongqi's clear eyes. He smiled and said, "Don't worry. Some people will never get out of the habit even if they try hard."
He murmured in a low voice: "People with bad roots will be bad even without habits."
After hearing this, Zhang Hongqi expressed his agreement with his idea.
"When did you come up with this idea?" Zhang Hongqi was really curious. The three of them all came from Beijing, got on the train together, and ended up having dinner together.
She had never realized that Chu Ming had such thoughts before.
Chu Ming shook his head: "I don't know."
At first, I just thought that people like Guo Hongying were very simple. When getting along with her, I didn't have to guess what she was thinking, and I didn't have to worry about making her angry.
She was proud but hardworking, clumsy but studious. She was a spoiled girl who grew up in the city, but she could play with the kids in the team.
Chuan Ming poured both buckets of water into the large water tank, then he slowly said, "It's so relaxing to be with her."
"Chun Ming, who are you with who makes you feel at ease?" Guo Hongying rushed into the room and heard Chu Ming's words.
Guo Hongying immediately looked curious and wanted to know who Chu Ming was talking about.
Zhang Hongqi laughed out loud when he heard this. Chuan Ming fell in love with such a confused person. The days to come would probably be very interesting.
In Hongqi's opinion, Guo Hongying is not a very smart girl, but she is good at listening to advice.
This wins over many people who think they are smart.
