Afraid that Bai Xiaohua would come out and see, Shi Qi wanted to pull his arm back from Gu Chijin's hand.
But she tried twice and couldn't pull it back.
"It's okay, I just went to the city with my sister-in-law to buy vegetables today, and I used too much force, so my wrist hurts a little.
It’s much better now.”
Looking at Gu Chijin's gloomy eyes, Shi Qi hurriedly explained.
Gu Chijin's expression didn't improve at all, his brows furrowed even tighter:
"Did you help carry the stuff?
How long has it been raised?
How can I ask you to bring it up?"
After three questions in a row, Shi Qi felt a little embarrassed.
"I'll go with you, my sister-in-law still has to look after the child.
If I don't help, will she be left alone to carry it?"
Seeing Gu Chijin letting go of his hand and about to walk into the house, Shi Qi was frightened and quickly grabbed him:
“What are you doing?!
You're not going to ask your sister-in-law, are you?"
If Gu Chijin really barged in with a cold face, how would Bai Xiaohua and Jiang Chen look at her later?
My hands used to hurt a little from lifting things, but it’s much better now.
Gu Chijin's nervousness made Shi Qi feel warm and worried.
"I'll go tell her that no one can use force on your wrist during this period."
When we were cleaning the house yesterday, Gu Chijin was worried that Shi Qi would not be able to do it, so he asked her to do some light work to pass the time.
If her hands started to hurt again because she came to help Bai Xiaohua cook a meal, Gu Chijin would be unhappy from the bottom of her heart.
Shi Qi stood where he was, holding Gu Chijin even tighter, staring at him unhappily and said:
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'll just pay attention to it later. If you say it now, it will embarrass my sister-in-law.
You are not allowed to go! "
Showing his authority as the master of the house, Shi Qi glared at Gu Chi Jin and threatened in a low voice:
"If you dare to go, don't even think about getting into my bed!"
Gu Chijin stood still, admitting that Shi Qi was a serious threat.
"Then don't help me. If you need anything later, just call me."
There was no other way, so Gu Chijin could only lower his head and show weakness to Shi Qi.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Shiqi nodded in agreement:
"Brother Jiang is back now, and there's nothing for us to do.
After dinner, just help clean up."
The two were still talking when Jiang Chen finished helping his wife cook and came out to call for help:
"Brother Gu, the food is ready, come in and sit down."
As soon as Jiang Chen finished speaking, Bai Xiaohua poked his head out from behind him, took a look outside, and muttered:
"Why are Jiang Ling and Ji Zhang still here?
Jiang Chen, why don’t you go and shout?
Otherwise the food will get cold and taste bad."
Jiang Chen glanced at the path outside the yard and nodded:
"Okay, you go ahead and serve the food, I'll go over and take a look."
Shi Qi asked Gu Chijin to carry Jiang Haoyun into the house. Bai Xiaohua happily let the two of them do it first, and she went into the kitchen to bring out the stewed pork ribs soup.
Seeing that the soup she was carrying seemed very hot, Shi Qi stood up and wanted to help, but was interrupted by Gu Chijin beside him:
"Let me do it, sister-in-law."
Taking the hot bowl, Gu Chijin placed it steadily on the round table.
Shi Qi's eyes moved around his long fingers, and when he didn't see any red marks, he turned his eyes away and stood up to help serve the food.
As Jiang Chen walked out of the yard, he saw Jiang Ling, who looked very happy, walking quickly towards his home with Ji Zhang.
Seeing him, Jiang Ling enthusiastically called him "Brother Jiang".
Jiang Chen nodded, a smile on his face, and invited the two to come in.
Jiang Ling's eyes became hot when she heard the laughter coming from the yard. She couldn't wait to take a walk with Jiang Chen, so she took two quick steps and ran inside.
When Jiang Ling ran to the door and saw Shi Qi walking towards the table with rice in his hand, her eyes became red.
"Sister Shi."
"Sister-in-law Ji."
Shi Qi turned around and saw Jiang Ling. He took two steps forward and took her hand with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, I haven't seen you for half a year. Do you miss me?"
Seeing her making jokes, Jiang Ling smiled and nodded vigorously:
"I do, very much. You're not in the military family compound, and Sister Jiang and I miss you so much. We're looking forward to your return."
Shi Qi raised the corners of his lips and nodded with satisfaction:
"I'm back, aren't I?
Sister-in-law, don’t cry. I will be staying in the military family compound for a long time this time.
We can have a good chat.”
Jiang Ling was delighted and nodded quickly:
"That's good, that's good. Go to the city tomorrow and check on the store. In the six months since you were away, business has been booming and we've made a lot of money."
"Sister-in-law is still amazing. Okay, I'll go back to the store in a few days to check it out."
Shi Qi smiled and agreed with Jiang Ling, with smiles on his face.
Gu Chijin sat aside, looking at Jiang Ling and Shi Qi's clasped hands, feeling inexplicably unhappy.
Just say what you want to say, why are you holding your hands so tightly?
Jiang Chen and Ji Zhang walked in and saw the two of them chatting. They interrupted with a smile:
"Let's eat first. If you have anything to say, we can talk while we eat."
Jiang Chen asked Ji Zhang and Jiang Ling to sit down. Seeing that Bai Xiaohua had not come out of the kitchen, he went in to help.
Gu Chijin helped Shi Qi put away the dishes and pulled her to sit next to him.
After sitting down, Shi Qi looked at Jiang Ling and Ji Zhang and realized something was wrong.
"Hey, why are you and your sister-in-law alone here? Where's Dongdong?"
Jiang Ling's smile remained unchanged as she began to explain:
"Dongdong has returned to his grandparents' home. The old people miss their grandson, so we let him go back and play for a few days. We will pick him up in two or three days."
Shi Qi nodded suddenly:
“I see.
It’s also true that it’s normal for the elderly to miss their grandchildren as they age, and it’s good for the children to go back and spend time with them.”
When the last dish was served, Jiang Chen asked Bai Xiaohua to sit down while he went to get the wine he had bought today.
Each of them poured a bowl, and Jiang Chen placed the bowl in front of Ji Zhang and Gu Chijin with a thud, winking:
