After breakfast, Shiqi washed the two bowls.
Afraid that she would have a headache again, she took the medicine she had taken last night according to the instructions to consolidate the effect.
It was not yet eleven o'clock, so Shi Qi didn't go out.
I went back to my room, took out a pen and paper, and started sketching in the living room.
She is designing a skirt for Bai Xiaohua.
Considering that it is inconvenient for Bai Xiaohua to wear a skirt when taking care of the child, Shiqi specially changed the skirt hem below the waist into a culottes when designing it.
The fabric of the skirt should be light and thin, so that people can move around easily when wearing it. Even when standing still, the wind blows and the skirt still feels flowing.
This inspiration came to Shiqi after learning from the trends in the early 1990s.
Gu Chijin sat in the house for a while, and when he heard some noise outside, he knew that Shi Qi had not gone out.
Somehow, when I was with her in the past, I felt the air was oppressive and I wanted to stay as far away from her as possible.
Now that they were living under the same roof, he couldn't even think of leaving.
I would like to go out and see what this woman is doing outside.
But after a few days, Gu Chijin was shocked by his own transformation.
He had never realized before that he was so easily shaken.
Once Shiqi sinks into work mode, he will isolate himself.
Automatically block all small noises around.
She didn't notice Gu Chijin coming out of the room at all.
Focus on revising the design draft at hand.
The bowl of porridge in the morning was too sweet. Gu Chijin wanted to come out to drink water, but as soon as he walked out of the room, his eyes were fixed on Shi Qi's hands and he couldn't move his feet.
He never knew that his wife had such great painting skills.
Every silky black line is born from her pen.
It's like the tentacles of the soul have grown out, entangled and blended, extending into a beautiful long skirt.
It was prettier than any dress he had ever seen.
Her focused and serious face was dyed golden in the sunlight, just like her dress on paper, beautiful and eye-catching.
Touching.
Gu Chijin stood there, and the most secret corner of his heart seemed to be gently scratched by a feather, causing a tingling sensation.
Sharp and capable?
Or is it just greed?
Which one is the real her?
During these years of marriage, he knew nothing about her.
Gu Chijin suddenly remembered what she had said to accuse him at the dinner table that morning.
He is the one who bears the greatest responsibility for her current state.
Was it because he ignored her too much at the beginning?
After marriage, she followed him to the military family compound, a strange environment and an inconsiderate husband.
Coupled with her unreliable parents and brother who came to her house again and again to force her, did this lead to her drastic change in temperament?
Gu Chijin frowned and thought, lost in thought for a moment.
Shi Qi finished the last stroke, rubbed the back of his neck, and looked up, startled by the man beside him:
"When did you come here? Why didn't you say anything?"
Giving him a reproachful look, Shi Qi put down the design draft, stood up, stretched his waist, and did a few stretching exercises.
Gu Chijin stared at her closely and asked without thinking:
"You...do you really hate me?"
Shi Qi was confused and really wanted to reach out and touch his head.
Could this man also have a fever?
He came into the room angrily in the morning, and now he's asking her if she hates him?
Could it be that he was tired of staying in the house and was going to pick a fight with her?
"You are my husband. I hate everything you do, and at most I am disappointed in you.
Besides, there's not such a deep emotional bond between us that it wouldn't reach the point of hating each other."
Shiqi bent down to pick up the line drawings and told the truth.
The two of them are nominally husband and wife.
But they didn't do anything that a couple should do.
Neither of them had the emotions they should have.
What's so disgusting about that?
Strictly speaking, Gu Chijin had always taken care of the original owner's eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, and the original owner almost cheated on him at home.
Even if he hated the original owner, it should be him who hated the original owner, not the original owner who hated him.
Recalling the original owner's past experience with Gu Chijin, Shi Qi raised his eyes to look at Gu Chijin.
Gu Chijin is tall and has a well-proportioned and handsome appearance.
He is still a soldier. As long as he doesn't make any mistakes, he will have no worries about food and clothing in his life.
I don't know how the original owner could be so blind that she left such a handsome guy at home and ran off to elope with a shifty gangster.
Not hearing the correct answer, Gu Chijin frowned even more and asked:
"Are you disappointed in me?"
After the words came out, Gu Chijin realized that he was too rash and immediately shut his mouth and stopped talking.
Why is he as irritable as a young boy?
Regardless of whether Shi Qi is disappointed in him or not, they will be divorced in two months.
By then, we will be strangers.
Strangers, why bother caring about what others think?
When Gu Chijin thought of the word divorce, he felt a tightness in his chest and a bit breathless.
Shi Qi didn't notice his psychological fluctuations. He put the line drawing back to the room and went into the kitchen to work.
"Gu Chijin, how about I go to my sister-in-law's place later and ask them to come over for dinner."
The weather was too strong, and Shi Qi was worried that the meat and fish from yesterday would go bad, so he wanted to call them over.
Gu Chijin was still in shock when he heard Shi Qi's voice and nodded absentmindedly:
"You decide."
The sun was halfway up in the sky and the room was so hot that people were sweating.
Shi Qi remembered that there was still half a bag of red beans at home, so he scooped out a small bowl and stewed a pot of red bean soup.
Mung beans are good for cooling off in the summer, but we don’t have any at home, so we can only make do with red beans.
After stewing the red bean soup, Shiqi began to process the fish.
Gu Chijin was injured and couldn't eat spicy food, but Jiang Chen's family all liked spicy food. Shi Qi cut the fish in half and prepared to make two flavors.
Half of it is used to make the appetizing pickled fish in clear soup, and the other half is used to make the spicy fish fillets that are fresh, fragrant and spicy.
After marinating the two portions of fish separately with seasoning, Shiqi began to cut the pork.
Remembering that there were some pickled mustard greens at home, Shi Qi took them out and soaked them, and would steam the pork with pickled mustard greens later.
After cutting the pork into three or four portions for steaming, Shi Qi diced the remaining pork and prepared to make braised pork for the children to eat.
After busying himself in the kitchen for a while, Shi Qi realized that there were no vegetarian dishes at home.
There were also several military wives growing vegetables in the military family compound. Shi Qi took off his apron and went out with the money.
There are the most vegetables in summer.
In the fields, peppers, cowpeas, eggplants, cucumbers, tomatoes and the like are all growing better and better, and the vines are hanging down so low that they are shorter.
Not to mention water spinach, the tips will pop back up in two or three days after you pinch them, and you can’t finish eating them.
When the farming wife of a soldier saw Shi Qi coming with money to buy vegetables, her jaw almost dropped to the ground.
The wives of soldiers who farm in the military compound are all tired of living here.
She used to go to the vegetable garden to steal vegetables without even saying hello.
Did the sun rise from the west today?
Even the famous ruffians are willing to spend money to buy vegetables.
This military wife went back to her parents' home yesterday and was not in the compound, so she didn't know about Shi Qi's heroic rescue.
Now I take her money and pick vegetables for her according to the market price.
But in the end, I still gave her a few more peppers.
It's just a bonus.
Shi Qi walked back with a full armful of vegetables. On the way, he met a few familiar faces and greeted them with a smile.
After taking the vegetables home, Shi Qi took out the cowpeas and asked Gu Chijin to help pick them, while he went to the kitchen to prepare other vegetables.
