Chapter 188: I can't help myself...
Ji Jiashu has always known that his wife is a good cook, but why can she always surprise him?
After Wang Xiaojun learned the recipe and method of making chili oil, he expressed his gratitude for a long time, and finally left because he couldn't resist Ji Jiashu's urging.
Ji Jiashu had only been back for two days this time, and Wang Xiaojun had wasted half a day...
Tong Xiayue found it funny to see Ji Jiashu's unhappy face: "What's wrong? You can't bear to spend this little time?"
Ji Jiashu: "Yeah, I can't bear to!"
Ye Lan turned down all the things today. She just went out for something and came back after she was done.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the house, I smelled a spicy fragrance!
Ye Lan: "Jiashu's wife, have you made something delicious again?"
Ye Lan asked as she walked into the kitchen. Seeing a bowl of red oil on the stove, she asked curiously: "What is this? Chili?"
Tong Xiayue smiled and said: "Mom, are you back? Well, this is chili oil. I made some for you. You can put some in noodles and cakes in the future. It smells so good!"
Ye Lan looked into the bowl: "Well, I can smell the fragrance from a long distance. This It will be delicious if mixed with noodles!"
Tong Xiayue made cold noodles for everyone at noon. Ye Lan and Ji Zhiyong had never eaten this before. Looking at the colorful things in the bowl, they laughed and said, "Why do you have so many weird ideas in your head all day long?"
Tong Xiayue smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, you try it."
Ye Lan and Ji Zhiyong didn't want to eat at noon because of the hot weather, but when they saw this bowl of cold noodles, they felt their appetites come back.
Ji Zhiyong picked up a piece of noodles with chopsticks and put it in his mouth: "Hmm! Delicious! What's in it? It's spicy and numbing, and very fragrant!"
Ye Lan also tasted a piece of noodles and said in surprise: "Why are these noodles still cold?"
Tong Xiayue smiled and said: "That's why it's called cold noodles. After I cooked the noodles, I soaked them in well water for a while. It's hot and you can eat this to cool down. I put freshly boiled chili oil in it. It's not very spicy, right?"
Ye Lan smiled and said: "Hmm, not spicy, just right." Ji
Zhiyong finished a bowl of cold noodles with just a few chopsticks, and smiled: "It's delicious. I feel comfortable after eating it! Anything else?"
Tong Xiayue smiled and said: "Yes!"
After that, she asked Ji Jiashu to go to the kitchen to make another bowl. The ingredients had been prepared before, and they just had to be put in the bowl.
Ji Zhiyong and Ye Lan also had a very happy lunch. Time passed quickly. In the evening, everyone sat together and had the last meal before leaving.
Although they were reluctant, the children all wanted to go out. As parents, they could not stop them. They could only remind them to take care of themselves outside.
After the meal, everyone sat together and talked a lot. They also talked about the second and third brothers. Tong Xiayue told Ye Lan and Ji Zhiyong that everyone was fine, so they could rest assured and make preparations. As soon as Ji Zhiyong retired next year, she would take the two to Beijing.
Several people sat in the yard, enjoying the cool and chatting, until Tong Xiayue fell asleep and everyone dispersed.
Ji Jiashu pulled Tong Xiayue back to the room and said with a smile: "Are you sleepy? Go to bed quickly, we have to go back tomorrow."
Tong Xiayue suddenly said seriously: "I forgot to call my dad and them, they don't know we are going to have dinner tomorrow!"
Ji Jiashu pressed her to sit on the bed: "Don't worry, I went to the branch to borrow a phone
this afternoon and called." Tong Xiayue didn't expect her man to be so thoughtful. She held his hand and shook it and smiled: "My husband is so nice!"
The two of them stayed up for a long time, and Tong Xiayue fell asleep under Ji Jiashu's urging...
The next morning, Ye Lan knew that they had to catch the train, so she got up early and prepared breakfast.
After getting up, the two of them had breakfast and said goodbye to Ye Lan and Ji Zhiyong.
The short reunion is for a better life in the future...
Ji Jiashu rode a tricycle with Tong Xiayue to the town, returned the tricycle, and paid three yuan for the rental fee.
At first, the other party was unwilling to lend the tricycle to them, so Ji Jiashu directly quoted a price of three yuan for two days, and seeing that Tong Xiayue was pregnant, the man lent it to them.
After the two returned the tricycle, they didn't have as much luggage as when they came, and they really traveled light!
After another four or five hours, the two finally ended their short two-day journey and returned to Beijing...
Tong Xiayue slept again in the car, and was very energetic when she got off.
The two returned to the courtyard, put down their luggage, and washed up and changed their clothes. The train was too noisy, and they were sweaty and smelly...
After a simple tidying up, the two hurried to Gu's house before dinner.
Whenever Tong Xiayue came back, the Gu family would usually get together, which fully showed how much everyone valued her.
Tong Xiayue was very busy during this period and had not found time to come and visit. Today, she brought some vegetables grown by Ye Lan from Yangliu Village, as well as the pheasant that Wang Xiaojun sent the night before.
Aunt Cao smiled when she saw the dishes, "You two are late, otherwise I would have made it for you."
Tong Xiayue smiled and said, "Aunt Cao, it's okay, you can cook for Grandpa and the others, we've already eaten when we get back."
Gu Qizheng and Grandpa Gu were both at home today, and they felt a little guilty when they saw Ji Jiashu...
Going to Jiehe was really a helpless act, and if you want to make people obey, you can only do this!
Tong Xiayue didn't show anything when she saw the two of them, and still shouted as usual: "Grandpa, Dad."
At the dinner table, everyone was still eating happily, and nothing was said about Ji Jiashu. Others in the family didn't know that Ji Jiashu was going to Jiehe.
After dinner, Tong Xiayue didn't rush to leave, and sat with Ye Chunxiang and the others to chat.
Ye Chunxiang: "Jiashu, it's really rare to see you. It's not easy."
Ji Jiashu turned to look at Tong Xiayue and smiled: "Well, I can't help myself..."
Tong Xiayue smiled faintly: "Well, it's true that I can't help myself. Every time I come back suddenly, I stay for two days and then leave."
Ye Chunxiang looked at Gu Ren and smiled: "Fortunately you didn't take over Dad's job..."
Speaking of this, Tong Xiayue remembered that Ji Jiashu was going to Jiehe, and she couldn't help feeling disappointed...
Gu Qizheng saw his daughter's expression and guessed that Ji Jiashu had told her, so he walked over to her and asked with concern: "You know?"
Tong Xiayue looked up at Gu Qizheng and nodded...
The others didn't know what happened, but they felt that something must have happened to Tong Xiayue.
Gu Qizheng sat next to Tong Xiayue and said: "Why don't you tell me something?"
What's the point of her saying anything now?
It's really hard to be a soldier's family member. You have to understand, support, and obey...
What else can you do?
Tong Xiayue: "No."
Gu Qizheng knew that she was angry, so he could only comfort her: "He has no choice this time. If he stays here like this, other people will not obey him at all. What can you let him do? Don't worry, I will let him come back soon, and try to transfer him back before you give birth. By then, the army will be a different picture! People will no longer gossip behind his back, and his situation will be much better. "
Tong Xiayue certainly knew her father's painstaking efforts, but she was reluctant to let him go at this moment...
But when she heard Gu Qizheng say that he could come back before she gave birth, she was still a little relieved...
