"When I got back, my Junfeng told me to come over early to help, saying that we shouldn't let my sister-in-law work alone. It's embarrassing for everyone to shamelessly come and eat for free. We should help share the burden in whatever way we can."
Mrs. Zhang deliberately left the child at home and didn't dare bring him here for fear that he would be naughty and cause trouble.
"Look at what my sister-in-law said. It's not about freeloading. Xu Lei and I should really treat everyone to a meal. We've all worked together for so long, and we're all good brothers. It's okay that I didn't come before, but now that I'm here, of course I have to invite everyone to get together and get to know each other."
Jiang Yuzhu also knew that as Xu Lei's wife, her job was to bring honor to Xu Lei and to entertain everyone well.
Jiang Yuzhu is not stingy. She is not the type who would be reluctant to share the delicious food she has at home. This is a good opportunity for everyone to know her strength, so that she doesn't have to carry the food for everyone.
Xu Lei's salary is not low. Although she doesn't have a job, her parents are very supportive and give her some money from time to time, so it is normal for her to eat better.
Jiang Yuzhu didn't want to let herself down. She lived a hard life and dared not eat or drink for fear that others would know.
"Oh, why do I like hearing that so much? No wonder our Captain Xu wanted to marry you home so quickly. If it were too late, he would regret it so much."
When Mrs. Zhang heard from her husband that Xu Lei got married as soon as he returned home, her jaw dropped.
Xu Lei is well-known for being difficult to deal with in this military region. No matter how many people introduced him to potential partners, he just refused to get along. So why did he agree to get married so quickly this time? Now Mrs. Zhang is even more curious about Jiang Yuzhu.
"That's right, he's not only good-looking but also a great cook. Xu Lei is a lucky guy."
The political commissar's wife couldn't help but feel happy for Xu Lei.
This guy finally found someone he likes.
"Yuzhu, please don't be polite with us. If there is anything you need us to do, just tell us. We will obey your orders."
"Although we are older than you, we still have to learn how to cook from you. We dare not mess around."
The two usually cook according to their own habits. Jiang Yuzhu's cooking must be so delicious, so it must be different. For a moment, the two of them really didn't dare to move around.
"Haha, okay, since you two sisters-in-law said that, I won't be polite." She was happy that her two sisters-in-law wanted to help.
Two more helpers are always better than none.
"Sisters-in-law, please sit down. We are not in a hurry. Let's drink some water first." Jiang Yuzhu made brown sugar water for the two of them.
The two entered the house. The political commissar's wife was fine. She had only taken a quick look at the house the last time she came in, but not in such a careful manner. Today, she saw that the house was full of clever ideas.
Even the political commissar's wife sighed, let alone Zhang's sister-in-law.
"Oh my, Xiao Jiang, your house is so beautiful." Mrs. Zhang was so amazed that she couldn't take her eyes off it. How could someone clean it so well? There was a fragrance in the house.
"Thank you for the compliment, sister-in-law. I was just tinkering around because I had nothing to do." Jiang Yuzhu and Xu Lei rearranged the furniture in the house and created a living room specifically to ensure the privacy of their bedroom.
Jiang Yuzhu didn't like anyone to come and sit on her bed, so she specially got a sofa and a small coffee table.
They are all colors that match the furniture in the house.
The furniture is obviously similar, but when people arrange it like this, it looks different.
Mrs. Zhang was astonished. It seemed that Jiang Yuzhu's family must be well-off, otherwise she wouldn't have such a personality.
Curtains were installed on every window. How much cloth was wasted? These curtains were enough to make two sets of clothes, but they were just hanging like this. The more Mrs. Zhang looked at it, the more frightened she became.
She would be reluctant to do so, as she has two boys at home and the cloth is more than enough to make a set of clothes for each of them.
"Xiao Jiang, we have this brown sugar water to drink. It's time to get to work. Just tell me what work you need."
"Come on, I'll take you to the kitchen. I've already sorted it out last night and I've even made the menu."
Jiang Yuzhu has already prepared everything necessary.
"Oh, this..." The two of them entered the kitchen and were stunned.
There are various ingredients on the chopping board and the table, mostly meat.
"No, Xiao Jiang, you're just treating me to a meal. Your family won't eat meat anymore, so why would we need so much meat? Stewing some cabbage and pork belly and frying some peanuts would be enough. Put it away!"
Mrs. Zhang was frightened when she saw so much meat, and quickly asked Jiang Yuzhu to put it away.
"Yes, Yuzhu, you are too economical. This meal is all meat dishes. How much does it cost? I said these old men are making trouble. Why do they have to eat such a meal?"
Women and men think differently. When they see Jiang Yuzhu spending so much money, their first reaction is to feel sorry for the money.
This is so embarrassing. This group of people clamored to have dinner at someone's house and made them spend money. Xu Lei and his wife are so generous. They only gave them good things.
"Sister-in-law, sit down and listen to me. This is just a coincidence. I just happened to bring a lot of things from my hometown. You know, we also happened to buy a sheep yesterday. These things are all ready. If I don't have them, forget it. Since we have them at home, we can eat whatever we have. I won't hide anything. I'm not that kind of person."
"You all should try my cooking. It's a rare occasion for us to get together, and it's not easy. Please don't be like this!" Jiang Yuzhu knew that her two sisters-in-law were good people and were thinking about her.
If it were someone else, they wouldn't think about you.
The two of them didn't know what to say. The other party really treated them sincerely. This girl was really nice. It was rare to find such an open-minded person.
"Okay, just this once. Otherwise, they will be spoiled and always come to eat for free." The political commissar's wife was afraid that the young couple would be too lenient in their life.
“Thank you, sister-in-law!”
"Okay, let's get to work."
"Okay, sisters-in-law, please help me peel the potatoes and carrots, and chop some onions and garlic." In fact, it was just some odd jobs, and Jiang Yuzhu really didn't want them to do anything else.
She knows exactly what she is going to do, and as long as her plans are not disrupted, there will be no problem.
The two of them went to work efficiently.
Jiang Yuzhu also started working.
The two watched Jiang Yuzhu cook, and saw how skilled she was at it, and how beautiful the food she cut was.
Everything went on in an orderly manner, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
Ma family.
"Mom, Old Ma is going to Xu Lei's place for dinner tonight, so you don't need to bring him any food." Captain Ma's wife chatted with the old lady.
"What about you?" Usually, couples are invited to dinner.
"Uh...Old Ma doesn't let me go." Captain Ma's wife was also unhappy. Everyone else brought their wives with them, but he didn't take her.
"Come here, I want to tell you..." The old lady whispered in the ear of Captain Ma's wife.
Captain Ma's wife's eyes lit up, "Mom, I know."
