Chapter 20: Delivering Meals



Xu Lei put down the tools in his hand and hurried over.

He took the big basket from the two men.

"Why are you here?"

"Mom told you to eat in the fields so you can go back and rest early in the afternoon." Xu Meili was almost dying of heat.

It’s all my third sister-in-law’s fault. She insisted on asking her to deliver the food as well.

The rest of the Xu family also gathered around, knowing that food was being delivered to them.

The fourth child was a little nervous. "Third sister-in-law, what are you doing?"

Can my third sister-in-law cook?

But don’t make something that tastes worse than what your mother makes, otherwise you’ll be in trouble.

"Don't worry about it. Just make sure you have enough to eat." Xu Lei immediately spoke up for his wife.

In fact, he didn't hold out any hope.

But when Jiang Yuzhu took out the big, golden and fluffy steamed buns, everyone was stunned.

Jiang Yuzhu ignored them and took out the shredded potatoes, followed by the egg drop soup, which was very beautiful.

The shredded potatoes are served with shredded green and red peppers, and the sour smell makes everyone drool.

The egg drop soup was also very beautifully tossed, with some chopped green onions sprinkled on top.

"Third sister-in-law, you are really good, you are so good at hiding your talents!"

"Ahh, delicious."

"I've announced that I'll let my third sister-in-law cook from now on. This is much more delicious than what mom cooks." The fourth child couldn't wait to take a few bites.

Although the steamed buns are made of multi-grain flour, they taste good and are very soft.

The others nodded, saying it was indeed delicious.

In comparison, what we ate before was just pig food.

This is what decent people eat.

Jiang Yuzhu distributed the soup and dishes to everyone one by one and gave the biggest steamed bun to Xu Lei.

"Have you eaten?"

Jiang Yuzhu shook her head.

Xu Lei split the steamed bun in half and gave half to Jiang Yuzhu.

"Let's go eat over there. It's cooler there." Xu Lei felt distressed when he saw beads of sweat on Jiang Yuzhu's forehead.

Holding the bowl, he walked towards the shade under the tree.

He is a rough man, so he just wants to sunbathe a little.

Jiang Yuzhu has fair and delicate skin. Her face turned red after being exposed to the sun, and she must be very uncomfortable.

Besides, my home is not close to this land. It must be very tiring to carry such a heavy thing and walk for more than 20 minutes.

"Don't send food next time. It's tiring to go back and forth. We can just go back and eat."

Xu Lei took off his coat and spread it on the big rock, leaving only a white vest inside.

"No, I..." Jiang Yuzhu felt a little shy as she looked at the clothes spread on the stone.

Xu Lei was really good to her.

"Sit down, it's cooler here."

Xu Lei handed the bowl to Jiang Yuzhu, "You eat first."

"No, I'll eat when I get home."

"Eat quickly. It's such a long journey. Don't go hungry." Xu Lei took two bites of the steamed bun and gave the vegetables and soup to Jiang Yuzhu.

Jiang Yuzhu knew that if she didn't eat, Xu Lei wouldn't be able to eat either.

I had to eat a few bites of shredded potatoes and then a few bites of the steamed bun that Xu Lei broke off for me.

This is enough for me, you can eat the rest.

Jiang Yuzhu pushed both the dishes and the soup to Xu Lei.

Then he quietly took out a big steamed bun from the back and said, "This is for you. I'm afraid you won't have enough to eat."

When Xu Lei saw that Jiang Yuzhu specially reserved the biggest steamed bun for him, he felt so happy.

He couldn't help but reach out and tuck the loose hair on Jiang Yuzhu's temples behind her ears.

I saw a blush quickly appearing on the face that had just regained its fair complexion, and even the ears were not spared.

Jiang Yuzhu lowered her head and ate her steamed bun as if to hide her feelings, not daring to look up.

Xu Lei was eating while looking at his wife, and he was in a very good mood.

Every move of the two was watched by many people.

Xu Meili couldn't help but pout. She really didn't know why her third brother was so fascinated by Jiang Yuzhu's appearance.

Isn't it just a pretty face?

She really misjudged him. Third Brother was actually such a superficial man.

The eldest sister-in-law was very envious and gently pulled her eldest brother next to her.

"Why are you pulling me? Why aren't you eating properly?" He looked impatient and continued to eat with big mouthfuls.

“…”

No wonder he is so useless and doesn’t even know how to love his wife.

The sister-in-law was so angry that she turned away and didn't look at them.

The more I read, the angrier I get.

The second son and his wife ate the food in their bowls carefully and were very satisfied.

The fourth brother caught a glimpse of his third brother and sister-in-law, and his eyes were filled with envy.

But he will be there soon. He just needs to wait for Xiaoli to come home, and then he will have a wife to warm his bed.

After Xu Lei and Jiang Yuzhu finished eating, they put the dishes and chopsticks into the basket.

"You guys should go back and have dinner." The old man was quite satisfied with the meal. It seemed that the third son's wife was not useless and could cook.

Jiang Yuzhu and Xu Meili walked back carrying the baskets.

On the way back, the two of them didn't say a word.

What can two people who don't like each other talk about?

"beauty."

"Sister Xiaomin, you just finished your meal."

The two men were walking opposite the educated youth who had finished their meal and were preparing to go to the fields.

"Yes, you guys are...delivering food to your family."

When Jiang Yuzhu saw that it was the group of people from the educated youth site, she nodded as a greeting.

She didn't have a good relationship with them anyway.

Otherwise, the original owner could have gone to the river alone to wash clothes and fallen into the water.

"Jiang Yuzhu, what's wrong? After getting married, you don't even bother to talk to us educated youth." Ma Chun walked up to Jiang Yuzhu and said provocatively.

"Hmph, I'm just too lazy to talk to you. Do you understand what I'm saying?" Jiang Yuzhu is afraid of Ma Chun.

Ever since Jiang Yuzhu went to the countryside and lived with them, Ma Chun has been bullying her and even teaming up with others to isolate her.
