When Jiang Yanqing prepared the seasoning for the cucumber, Fang Mingxiao turned around and found that he had already killed the fish, washed it clean and placed it on a plate.
The two of them worked together and soon, lunch was ready. Fang Mingxiao was responsible for serving the dishes, while Jiang Yanqing was responsible for getting the bowls and chopsticks.
The two sat opposite each other. Fang Mingxiao looked at the table full of sumptuous dishes and was a little stunned. How long had it been since he had eaten such delicious food?
It wasn't that long ago. On the first day that man came back, the table was even richer than it is now, with chicken, duck, fish, meat, and even wine.
But, that was the Hongmen Banquet, a Hongmen Banquet where a man wanted to easily get rid of his rural wife after becoming successful.
The final result was exactly what he wished for. He returned to his territory without any psychological burden, and didn't care at all that the wife buried in the ground was the one he had married with all the means.
Fang Mingxiao's mood suddenly changed drastically. Jiang Yanqing also felt it, but she just thought it was because it was a holiday and he missed his family.
Picking up the chopsticks, he said in a relaxed tone, "Let's eat."
The moment he finished speaking, Fang Mingxiao calmed down, picked up the chopsticks at hand, and nodded.
Just as he was about to eat, a tempting piece of pork belly fell into his bowl. He looked up and saw Jiang Yanqing looking at him expectantly. "Try my cooking. I tell you, you are really lucky. Not many people can eat the food I cook."
This is true. In the previous life, except for grandpa, even my parents liked the food cooked by Jiang Yanqing very much. They didn’t even know that Jiang Yanqing could cook.
So the pocket money was always sufficient. Whenever Jiang Yanqing asked for something, the money would be in her account the next day.
If we don’t talk about loneliness, Jiang Yanqing’s life should be envied by many people!
Fang Mingxiao picked up the piece of meat, put it in his mouth, chewed it for a while, nodded, and praised, "It's delicious."
Hearing the compliment, a smile immediately broke out on Jiang Yanqing's face. Although Jiang Yanqing did it on purpose, it really infected Fang Mingxiao.
At noon, the two of them had a good appetite and ate most of the meal. Under Jiang Yanqing's kind persuasion, Fang Mingxiao ate three bowls of rice. In the end, the job of washing dishes was naturally handed over to Fang Mingxiao.
After dinner, the two of them rested for a while. Jiang Yanqing took out a large bag of curtains that she had brought with her and looked at Fang Mingxiao. "Here, this is what I need your help with. Help me hang these curtains up."
Jiang Yanqing had someone make the curtain rods, and all he had to do was hook them up one by one.
However, climbing up and down in such hot weather was tiring and hot, and coupled with the height issue, Jiang Yanqing stepped aside and let Fang Mingxiao do the work.
However, it would be inappropriate to just watch the guests busying around while she was bored. Jiang Yanqing moved a square bench and prepared to hang the curtains on the side windows.
Everything went smoothly, but Jiang Yanqing's arm was just a little too short. She stood on tiptoe thinking she could reach it, but the stool tilted and her foot missed.
Just when Jiang Yanqing thought she was going to be beaten black and blue, she happened to fall into a warm embrace.
Fang Mingxiao had just finished hanging the hook on one side and was about to come down to hang the other end when he suddenly heard a sharp, piercing sound and a scream from a familiar voice.
Without giving his brain time to react, he rushed forward to catch the person, and the stool fell to the side with a thud.
Jiang Yanqing patted her chest with lingering fear and was about to stand up to thank him when Fang Mingxiao's face suddenly changed drastically and she asked nervously, "Are you hurt?"
Jiang Yanqing moved her feet and didn't feel any pain. She shook her head, but before she could answer, Fang Mingxiao's hand was stretched out in front of her with a trembling hand and a small pool of blood on it.
After being stunned for several seconds, Jiang Yanqing felt a slight pain in her lower abdomen. Her face turned red instantly and she realized what was wrong with her.
Oh, God, why are you playing tricks on me? My first period didn't come earlier, didn't come later, but at this time. Where will I put my face in the future?
Looking at Jiang Yanqing's unpredictable expression, and thinking about the place where his hand had just touched, Fang Mingxiao's face instantly turned red. He immediately tilted his head to the side and said with a somewhat unstable breath, "Um, can you still get up now?"
Jiang Yanqing jumped up instantly, ran upstairs, entered the room, slammed the door, and could still clearly hear her heart beating non-stop.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Yanqing comforted herself. Her sister had experienced many ups and downs in her previous life. Didn’t she just have her first period in front of a brat?
It’s just, uh…crying, it’s really too embarrassing, so embarrassing that I can dig out a two-bedroom apartment with my toes.
However, this embarrassment did not last long. Jiang Yanqing's face began to turn pale because of the increasing pain in her lower abdomen.
