The next day, Su Li woke up in the man's arms. She thought she would not be used to it, but she did not expect that she did not even have a dream all night long.
When Su Li sat up, Xie Zhengchuan's hand slid from his waist to his legs. Su Li was about to take it away, but he pinched it lightly, and Su Li's face turned red.
She hurriedly lifted the quilt and started to put on her clothes. Xie Zhengchuan laughed twice behind her. Su Li didn't want to pay attention to him, so she got up and went out. The moment she opened the door, a cold wind hit her face.
There was a blanket of snow outside, and it looked to be half a foot thick.
There is a wooden shovel in the corner of the main room, which can be used to shovel snow.
"Zhengchuan, get up. It's snowing heavily outside. Please shovel the snow."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Zhengchuan came out of the room. Today he was wearing a thick woolen coat made by Su Li and a black scarf. He was tall and slender, and he looked quite gentlemanly.
There was hot water in the thermos, and Su Li made two cups of honey water, one cup for each of them.
Xie Zhengchuan first shoveled a path for Su Li leading to the kitchen, and then began to clean up the yard. The snow must have fallen last night. It was so heavy. I wonder if there are any houses collapsed in the village. I will go to the village chief's house later to check, and make sure no one is frozen to death.
In the kitchen, Su Li exhaled and rubbed her hands, then took out a large pot of spicy soup and fifteen steamed buns from the space.
Thinking about how much Xie Zhengchuan and the boys ate, Su Li took 10 more white flour buns. She fried some cabbage and bacon and a bowl of pickles.
When it was almost done, the kids over there got up, screamed when they saw the snow, and ran inside happily.
"Okay, let's play after dinner. There's hot water in the thermos. Let daddy take you to wash up. Huzi, throw away the icicles in your hand. Did you hear me? Tiedan, Lidan, you guys, shake off the snow on your bodies, or your clothes will get wet soon."
Su Li said a few words when she passed by with the meal. Although snow was not fun, the big porcelain basin of fragrant soup in their mother's hand was more attractive. Several people threw away the snowballs and icicles in their hands and ran into the house.
Xie Zhengchuan had already prepared the hot water for washing, Su Li had set the tableware and made a cup of milk for each person.
"Eat two bites of the buns and drink the milk while it's hot. Mom will make buns and dumplings for lunch. If you want to go out and play, don't go too far. Be careful not to fall when you play."
"I know, Mom."
Su Li watched Xie Zhengchuan eating steamed buns and pickles, and reached out to pick up a piece of bacon with chopsticks, "Eat more. You must have not eaten well and slept well when you were in the army. Didn't you say last time that your leader gave you his allowance or something? I thought of making some food and sent it to your comrades. It will be almost the New Year when you receive it. What do you think?"
Xie Zhengchuan ate the dishes picked by Su Li and his eyes narrowed in comfort. In the army, he would never pay attention to eating and drinking.
Apart from training, they also go on missions every day. During training, they just care about filling their stomachs, but when they are on missions, they are hungry one moment and full the next. They are always living on the edge of a knife, with no tomorrow to live.
Although he missed his time in the army very much, his current peaceful life made him feel warmer.
He was very grateful for Su Li's arrangement. Originally, he wanted to pay it back bit by bit when he took office next year. They all had families, and life was difficult for everyone. This time, he could just use the opportunity of sending things to pay back all the money extorted from the company commander.
"Okay, you arrange it, but I want to send him the money that his face gave me, so that I can feel at ease."
"That's the way it should be." Su Li looked at him with a smile. This man was affectionate and righteous. He was worthy of being the one she liked.
Baoya looked at her mother picking up food for her father, her little face puffed up with anger. She felt that her mother didn't love her the most. Moreover, when she turned over last night, she woke up and found that her mother didn't hug her when she slept.
The little girl took a bite of the bun and glanced at her parents.
However, Su Li and Xie Zhengchuan had just confirmed their feelings last night, and were very affectionate, so they didn't notice her at all.
However, Tiedan and his friends noticed that the younger sister was not happy.
"Baoya, what's wrong with you? Are your eyes uncomfortable?"
"That's definitely not the case. Baoya is obviously angry." Huzi ate the steamed bun in big mouthfuls.
"I didn't mess with my sister!" Shitou took a sip of the spicy soup and stuck out his tongue to express his opinion.
"I...I didn't make...my sister angry." Li Dan called out "sister" as if he had summoned a lot of courage, and his ears turned red.
He looked up at everyone and saw that no one noticed his embarrassment. Good thing, Li Dan breathed a sigh of relief.
Baoya ignored her brothers and looked at Su Li quietly and said, "Mom, you can't just spoil Dad and ignore Baoya! I didn't even hold you to sleep yesterday."
After saying that, he took a bite of the bun with an angry look in his eyes, then looked at Su Li with his milk teeth bared.
Su Li was just feeling embarrassed because Xie Zhengchuan was staring at her. She was drinking milk from an enamel cup, and when she heard Bao Ya say this, she almost choked.
"How can there be...how can there be a favor."
"But mom only picked up food for dad. She didn't hear my brothers talking." After saying that, he took a sip of the spicy soup.
Sihasiha~㱕, and quickly took another bite of the bun.
"Hehe... Um, did you guys talk? What did you say?"
When Tiedan and the others heard Su Li say this, they immediately looked at Su Li with resentment.
Shitou: "I feel like my mom has been taken away from me since my dad left home. She doesn't even blush when she kisses me, but she blushes when she talks to my dad."
Tiedan and Huzi also nodded silently. Yes, they had also discovered it.
Xie Zhengchuan listened to the little guys talking, and his heart was filled with sweetness, bubbling with joy.
Yeah?
Do you blush when talking to him?
How come he didn't notice?
It is hard to say that a bystander sees more clearly...
Anyway, Su Li had confirmed her feelings to him now, and it felt good to be envied by her own children.
Several children came over and looked at Su Li and Xie Zhengchuan.
Su Li was stared at by a few innocent eyes. She felt very embarrassed. She immediately picked up her chopsticks and took a piece of food from each of them. "No, mom treats you all with kindness. We have everything, we have everything."
Xie Zhengchuan saw the woman's ears were red and about to bleed, so he quickly knocked on the table and said, "Hurry up and eat. After dinner, we can go out and play. Didn't we want to play in the snow just now?"
With their mother picking up food for them, the children happily scooped up the food from their own bowls.
After dinner, the children were going out to play. Su Liwan didn't even clean up and started to fiddle with the children, taking their hats, scarves, and gloves. She also checked their socks, and wrapped them into a ball one by one. The scarves were tied so high that only two eyes were exposed.
Su Li looked at him and nodded with satisfaction. Xie Zhengchuan walked in front, followed by a group of children.
After clearing the dishes, she began to prepare buns, dumplings and other things.
He took a piece of pork fat and started to boil the lard residue. The boiled oil was collected in a ceramic pot and the lard residue was put into two small bowls, one with sugar and the other with chili powder. Su Li tasted it and found it fragrant. He chopped the remaining lard residue and mixed it with cabbage vermicelli to make a large bowl of stuffing.
I also made egg, leek and vermicelli fillings and pork, green onion and shepherd’s purse fillings.
There are three kinds of fillings. Su Li bought a lot of dumpling skins and bun skins from the supermarket in the Space Department Store.
Kneading dough is a physical job and she can't do it.
Although there are no ready-made dumplings and buns in the space, Su Li wants to make them herself this time.
It’s so cold today, so make more for easy storage.
Su Li was so exhausted that she managed to make 100 buns and 200 dumplings in the whole morning.
At noon, Su Li ordered 100 of them. If they couldn’t finish them, they could be fried and eaten the next morning. If they weren’t enough, she could order more. Anyway, there was enough filling.
