Lu Qingyan didn't even look at her. She remained silent after hearing what she said. She lowered her head and took another bite of rice. She swallowed it with difficulty, put down her bowl and chopsticks, frowned and said:

"Please cook me some porridge and two eggs, or I won't be able to eat it."

"Well, would you like some more pickles?" Gu Mingze nodded and asked.

Lu Qingyan looked up and asked: "What pickles do you have?"

"Mustard lumps, mustard seeds, pickled radish." Gu Mingze looked at the fair and tender girl in front of him. She was actually five or six years younger than him, but the two of them standing together looked like a daughter-in-law who was more than ten years older than him.

"Let's use mustard greens, cut them into thin strips, and add a little sesame oil." Lu Qingyan thought for a moment and said

"Okay, you sleep a little longer, I'll go out first." Gu Mingze looked at his lazy wife and said

"Go quickly, I'm hungry." Lu Qingyan urged

Gu Mingze shook his head helplessly and went out with the food.

"Have you finished eating?" Lin Dacui asked, looking at the same amount of food as was brought in.

"No, Xiaoyan is not used to eating rice in the morning, so I'll make her some porridge." Gu Mingze shook his head and went into the kitchen to make porridge, boil eggs, and cut pickles.

"Mom, my brother-in-law must have brought back a great man." Niu Lili said with her mouth wide open in surprise.

"Don't say anything nonsense. She ate like this when she was at her parents' home. She changed after marrying into our Gu family." Lin Dacui frowned and said.

She asked the old man to go back to work and decided to turn a blind eye to it, otherwise she was afraid her heart would not be able to bear it.

Niu Lili and the others saw that their parents-in-law had gone to work, and they hurriedly called their husbands to go to work as well.

But before leaving, they all looked at their brother-in-law's room with envy. The fourth brother's wife was too well off, and didn't have to work, unlike them? Alas!

"When will you return to the army?" Lu Qingyan took the food and looked at the man and asked

"The day after tomorrow." Gu Mingze said disappointedly.

He thought his wife was chasing him away, so he was very disappointed.

"What about me?" Lu Qingyan frowned.

"Ah?" Gu Mingze didn't understand what his wife meant.

"What should I do after you leave? Are you going to abandon me at home right after you get married?" Lu Qingyan said angrily.

"No, no, we got married too hastily. I haven't applied for a house in the army yet, so you won't have anywhere to live if you go there." Gu Mingze looked at his wife angrily and hurriedly explained.

"Okay, then I'll go back to my parents' home after you leave." Lu Qingyan nodded and said

"Isn't this bad?" Gu Mingze was very confused when he heard this.

"Then tell me, if I don't go back to my parents' home, who will take care of me when you leave?" Lu Qingyan put her chopsticks on the bowl, folded her arms and raised her eyebrows.

"Then you should go back to your parents' home. But, can you move in after I get the housing application?" Gu Mingze thought about the temperament of his mother and his sisters-in-law, and pleaded quietly.

"Let's talk about it later." Lu Qingyan picked up her chopsticks and ate. After eating, she strolled for a while and suddenly felt a stomachache. She called Gu Mingze to ask where the toilet was.

After finding the toilet without a door, he frowned. When he walked in and looked down, he saw maggots under the two wooden boards. He vomited the food he had just eaten.

"vomit……"

Gu Mingze heard the noise and ran over. Looking at the person who was vomiting non-stop, he asked worriedly, "Did you eat something wrong, or what happened?"

"Help me back to the house." Lu Qingyan said weakly with her eyes closed after she felt that she could no longer vomit.

"Slow down." Gu Mingze went forward and helped the trembling man back to the house and onto the kang. He went to the kitchen to scoop a bowl of hot water and asked him to drink it.

Then, after everyone fell asleep, he wiped the sweat from his head, let out a long breath, and hurried to the kitchen to cook.

In the evening, when Lin Dacui and her group came back from work, they saw their old son cooking in the kitchen. They patted their chests and prayed, then asked, "Old Four, what are we having for dinner?"

"Barley porridge and steamed bread." Gu Mingze poured the porridge into the basin and brought the steamed bread into the house.

Section 2

Old Man Gu and his group were sitting in the main hall waiting for dinner. When they saw that the food had been served but they didn't see the fourth son's wife, they asked, "Fourth son, your wife isn't going to eat?"

"Qingyan is not feeling well, so she won't come out to eat." Gu Mingze looked at his father and said

"Then let's eat." Old Man Gu nodded and said

Lin Dacui put a bowl of corn porridge on the table and began to distribute the rice to everyone.

The man had a bowl of thick corn porridge and two steamed buns.

The woman had a bowl of rice porridge that was neither too thick nor too thin, and a steamed corn bread.

The child started his dinner with a bowl of thin corn porridge, half a steamed bun, and a plate of pickles on the table.
