Hearing the shouts outside the yard, Jianshu hurriedly brought the dishes to the table and then ran to open the door.
"Mingzi is here, come in quickly, the dishes are ready, I'll get the wine out and we'll start eating." Jianshu greeted.
Ding Ming was not shy and walked towards the kitchen as if he knew the place well. He said, "Okay, sister-in-law, I'll put the things down and come right back."
Looking at the pile of things in his hands, Jian Shu glanced at it, shook his head, and went straight to get the wine without saying anything.
It wasn't that she was indifferent, but she had gotten used to it. Ever since Gu Mingjing left, Ding Ming had never come empty-handed every time he visited.
At first she was reluctant to accept it and asked him to take it back, but every time she got what she wanted, he would say that it was his brother Gu who asked him to do so and he had no say in the matter. Now that it had come to this, what else could she do?
After a few times, she gradually got used to it. After all, it was her boyfriend's affection. If she couldn't refuse, she should just lie down and accept it.
When Jianshu came over with a jar of wine, Ding Ming was already sitting at the table, looking forward to it.
When he saw her figure, his eyes fell directly on her hand. He smiled so hard that his teeth were visible, and stood up excitedly to take it.
"Sister-in-law, this wine jar is too heavy. Let me take it."
Seeing how impatient he was, Jianshu smiled helplessly and let him do what he wanted.
Ding Ming took the jar of wine, opened the lid, and a strong aroma of wine hit him in the face.
Seeing him about to pour himself a glass of wine, Jian Shu quickly covered the rim of the glass and said, "No, I don't want to drink this wine. You can drink it yourself."
This wine has a high alcohol content and a strong aftertaste, she can't drink it. She had already prepared osmanthus wine for herself.
She didn't want to drink, but Ding Ming didn't force her. "Hehe, that's perfect. I can drink more." Ding Ming said with a smile.
He acted like he had gotten a great deal, which made Jianshu laugh.
He immediately waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, there's plenty of wine here at my sister-in-law's place. You can drink as much as you want. You can take any leftovers with you when you go back."
She didn't drink anyway, and there was still quite a bit in the space. Since this was grain wine, it wouldn't be good to take out too much, so it would be fine to give Ding Ming some more.
"Thank you, sister-in-law. I won't be polite." Ding Ming thanked her.
Jianshu waved his hand to indicate that he was welcome.
Ding Ming had nothing to say about his sister-in-law. Even a real sister-in-law was so kind to him, so Jianshu was not stingy with him at all. She would give him anything she had at home, as long as it was not too unusual.
Over the past few days, Ding Ming had gotten to know Jian Shu a bit better. Knowing that she was a straightforward person, he stopped being polite and reserved with her.
"Sister-in-law, come, let's have a drink." Ding Ming smelled the aroma of wine and was so greedy that he picked up the wine glass and said to Jian Shu.
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll pour a glass of wine." Jian Shu was also very straightforward. He picked up the osmanthus wine beside him and poured himself a glass.
The light yellow osmanthus wine looks very beautiful in the ceramic wine glass, with a refreshing fragrance. It has a different taste compared to strong liquor.
She picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Ding Ming's, then took a sip and put it down.
Looking at Ding Ming, he drank it in one gulp. Although the wine glass was not big, drinking on an empty stomach was not only bad for the stomach, but also easy to get drunk.
He quickly said, "Mingzi, don't just drink, eat the food quickly and try my sister-in-law's cooking."
Seeing Jianshu speak, Ding Ming also put down his wine glass, picked up his chopsticks and went to the nearest cold pig ears.
"Sister-in-law, it's delicious. This is your cooking skill." After tasting it, Ding Ming gave Jian Shu a thumbs up and praised her.
After saying that, he hurriedly picked up his chopsticks and went to eat the pig ears again.
Seeing him like this, Jian Shu was so happy that she smiled. "If you like it, eat more. There are so many other dishes besides these pig ears. Eat and drink slowly. There is no rush."
People love to hear good things, and Jianshu is no exception. When someone praised her cooking skills, she was so happy that she couldn't contain herself.
"Hmm." Ding Ming continued eating, nodding repeatedly. Seeing that Jian Shu hadn't touched her chopsticks yet, he quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Sister-in-law, you eat too. Don't worry about me."
"Okay, then you should eat more. The temperature is getting higher and higher, and it's not good to leave food overnight. You are not allowed to leave any food on the table." Jianshu said.
Ding Ming looked at the dishes on the table, estimated his appetite, nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, nothing will be wasted."
With wine, he can eat any amount of food.
"Oh, sister-in-law, I have something for you." Ding Ming slapped his head and suddenly remembered why he came. He was a little annoyed. How could he forget the important things when he saw the wine?
"Hmm?" Jian Shu was a little confused. After thinking for a moment, she remembered that Ding Ming had said he had something to talk to her about when they met at noon. Later, after being interrupted, she had forgotten about it. Only when Ding Ming mentioned it did she remember it again.
After a moment of annoyance, Ding Ming pulled something out of his pocket and handed it to Jian Shu, explaining, "Sister-in-law, didn't you say a few days ago that you wanted to buy a camera? My friend got a ticket, and since you needed it urgently, I sent it to you."
Looking at what Ding Ming was holding, Jian Shu was so happy that he didn't know what to say. Isn't this like a pillow for a sleepy guy? They had just confirmed the time to go to Shanghai, and here they got the ticket for the camera.
She thought that she should buy a camera tomorrow and take it with her when she goes to Shanghai. This way, she can take a few photos when she arrives in Shanghai. If she doesn't take photos when traveling, wouldn't it be a wasted trip?
And the Shanghai of the 1970s is full of memories. Why not take a few pictures to commemorate it? Even if it's just a simple street or alley, it's still very memorable.
