“This, this is…”
Xing Haodong could no longer remain calm. Although he had never seen anyone wearing a silver ring, and the shape was a bit ugly, it was indeed a ring.
Is Mingxin going to propose to him?
The complaints in his heart instantly turned into colorful auspicious clouds, carrying him to the sky.
All the sour stuff accumulated in my stomach disappeared.
He looked at the ring on his middle finger, then looked at Jiang Mingxin with her charming smile, and his heart felt like it was filled with honey.
"How is it, do you like it?"
Jiang Mingxin reached out and pointed at the ring. She had never thought of giving Xing Haodong anything before, not including the Doucai grape cup.
But since we are officially together and are a serious couple, we must have the necessary sense of ceremony.
But in her opinion, there are too few things that can be used as tokens of love.
This crooked silver ring was made by her own hands after she had searched for it for a long time in Shenzhen and finally found a silver shop.
"You talk, do you like it?"
Xing Haodong's mouth corners were tense with nervousness, as if he was not at home but at a wedding scene with lights and decorations. Not only was his tongue tied, but even his limbs began to stiffen.
"I like it! But, this kind of thing should be done by me... Mingxin, I really didn't expect... that you would give me such a big surprise."
After saying that, he excitedly held her hand, his eyes extremely serious, "Don't worry, I will definitely treat you well for the rest of my life."
Jiang Mingxin didn't expect him to react so strongly and was a little stunned. "What's the big deal? I'm not very skilled and it's my first time making a ring, so the finished product isn't very beautiful. I'm glad you don't mind it."
Then she took out the one she made for herself and held it up to show him.
"Look at mine. It's uglier than yours, but I carved a lily for decoration, so it's still quite unique."
Xing Haodong asked in confusion, "You made it yourself? Then why not gold? If you had told me in advance, I would have asked my sister to send me the gold bars. They were originally left by my grandfather for my wedding. Not only a gold ring, but a complete set of gold bracelets, gold earrings, and a gold necklace would be more than enough."
As he listened, Jiang Ming felt something was wrong.
Seeing the look on his face as he carefully touched the ring, she suddenly realized that he must have misunderstood.
"Xing Haodong, you don't think I'm proposing to you, do you?"
Jiang Mingxin held back his laughter, his heart was so soft.
Her Captain Xing looks big and strong on the surface, but he is actually so delicate and thoughtful.
No wonder his eyes were a little wet just now, so this is what happened.
Xing Haodong was surprised and stared at the ring in bewilderment, his voice becoming increasingly quiet: "Isn't it..."
Seeing him so disappointed, Jiang Mingxin felt extremely guilty and pursed her lips awkwardly.
Blame her for forgetting to consider the ideological differences between the two generations.
"I...I just want to make matching rings for us as a token of our love. These are not wedding rings."
Xing Haodong heard the sound of a crystal ball breaking.
Fortunately, he quickly cheered up and didn't remain depressed for too long. He tried hard to pull up the corners of his mouth and said, "It turns out that I misunderstood. The token of love is also very good. I like it very much."
This expression is exactly the same as Wudi's with his ears drooping because he felt wronged.
Jiang Mingxin couldn't help but go up to him, hug him, and pat his back gently.
"Let's take it slow, okay?"
Xing Haodong nodded vigorously, his voice muffled: "Of course, I promised you."
It's just that his emotions were going up and down like a roller coaster, and he obviously needed some time to digest it.
Jiang Mingxin hadn't expected that her gift would actually make him depressed. Feeling guilty, she quickly went out to pick up Wudi and bring him back to keep Xing Haodong company. Then she went into the kitchen, intending to cook a couple more delicious dishes to nourish him.
She took out a large piece of pork belly with alternating fat and lean meat, cut it into large cubes, and rinsed it under the faucet.
These days the economic conditions are poor and every household is short of oil and water. As long as conditions permit, everyone is willing to eat more meat.
In order to make Xing Haodong happier, she thought about it and decided to make Dongpo pork.
Put the pork belly in a pot with cold water, add ginger slices and kneaded green onions, blanch it, remove it, tear open the corn husks, and tie them up. Before tying them up, lightly fry them in a dry pan to ensure they are not too greasy.
Take out a small casserole, brush a thin layer of vegetable oil on the bottom of the pot, spread a layer of ginger slices and a layer of green onions on the bottom of the pot, and put the tied pork belly in. Pour in water and an appropriate amount of dark soy sauce, simmer for half an hour, add rock sugar, and simmer for another 20 minutes. It's done.
Meat alone is not enough without vegetables, so Jiang Mingxin fried a plate of garlic and garlic sprouts, and the kitchen was filled with fragrance.
"Let's eat!"
She brought out the beef bone soup and invited Xing Haodong to eat, and saw him holding a cell phone, not knowing who he was calling.
"Yes, your sister-in-law made it for me... Why, are you jealous?"
Xing Haodong lowered his voice deliberately, but Jiang Mingxin still heard it clearly.
She glanced sideways and saw that the man who had been aggrieved just now was now smiling as if he had achieved some kind of merit.
"Your sister-in-law called me to eat. Hmm... what dishes are there? Let me see... There's beef bone soup, braised pork, and cauliflower. They're so delicious you could almost swallow your tongue."
Jiang Mingxin didn't know who he was showing off to. When he heard this, his ears felt hot and the corners of his mouth involuntarily rose.
"Okay, let's eat." She said loudly on purpose.
