Aunt Liu came in carrying a large bowl. "Captain Ji said you're living alone at home and he's worried you won't be able to adapt, so he asked me to take care of you. I made some noodles this afternoon, so I'll give you a bowl."
Yi Xiaoqiu blushed, "How can I handle this?"
I didn't expect that person to be so conscientious.
She invited Aunt Liu into the house and took the bowl from her hand. "Aunt Liu, wait a moment. I'll change the bowl."
As he spoke, Yi Xiaoqiu planned to go into the kitchen at the back.
Aunt Liu called out to her quickly, "Don't bother me. I'll go back first. Just call next door when you're done eating."
Yi Xiaoqiu turned around and smiled, "Then Auntie will go back first. I'll bring the bowl over later."
"Okay, I have to go back quickly. Otherwise, there will probably only be soup base left for the noodles. I won't accept that after being busy for so long, I will just drink some noodle soup..." Aunt Liu said as she went out the door impatiently.
Yi Xiaoqiu found it funny and sad.
Yesterday, when they came back, Aunt Liu insisted on giving them a piece of meat.
When Yi Xiaoqiu came back, he pickled it with salt. Otherwise, it would go bad overnight.
I just happened to cut some for Aunt Liu now, not much, less than half a pound.
Comparing a piece of meat with a bowl of noodles, it is hard to say which one is more valuable.
It is rare to see fine grains, let alone they are well made, so the thought behind it becomes even more precious.
Yi Xiaoqiu was not a person who would take advantage of others. He poured out the noodles from his own bowl, washed the bowl, and put the meat in it.
By the time Yi Xiaoqiu finished his noodles and went next door to return the bowl, Aunt Liu and her family had already finished eating.
When Yi Xiaoqiu entered the house, the family was digesting their food in the yard!
"Thank you, Auntie. Your cooking skills are really great. I finished such a big bowl of noodles in one breath." Yi Xiaoqiu handed the bowl to Aunt Liu.
Aunt Liu took the bowl and looked at it, and was immediately shocked, "What are you doing? Why are you still..."
Yi Xiaoqiu squeezed her hand and said with a fierce face, "Auntie's cooking skills are so good, I want to eat more in the future. This give and take is the only way to last long! Don't be polite, unless you don't want to talk to me anymore in the future."
Aunt Liu smiled immediately, and her smile became more sincere. "Okay, then I'll shamelessly accept it. Next time, if you want to eat something, just tell me directly."
It's not that her family can't afford that little bit of meat, she's just happy that little Qiu doesn't look very old, and he doesn't take favors for granted, so he's worth making friends with.
Yi Xiaoqiu breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid of getting into arguments with others, but fortunately Aunt Liu was a straightforward person.
"Okay, don't think I'm troublesome then."
Yi Xiaoqiu glanced at the sky and prepared to go back, but Aunt Liu actually pulled Yi Xiaoqiu aside and started to talk to her in private.
"Hey! Have you heard?"
When Yi Xiaoqiu heard this, she knew something was wrong, so she moved closer.
"What's up?"
"Isn't our area far from the military hospital? Many people are too lazy to go to the hospital for minor illnesses. So the higher-ups built a medical room in our unit. Do you know who's on duty here?"
Yi Xiaoqiu looked at Aunt Liu in surprise, "Aunt, do you know?"
Aunt Liu knew about it in advance before this person even arrived. It seems she is very well-informed!
Aunt Liu said with a hint of pride: "I really know. You have seen that person. You will know who it is in a few days."
Aunt Liu kept the secret.
Yi Xiaoqiu thought that she had just arrived and didn't know many people, so she couldn't remember them for a moment.
Unable to remember, Yi Xiaoqiu was too lazy to think about it. He said hello to Aunt Liu and went home to sleep.
She had planned her time for the next day. When she returned, she would write letters to Shen Ruofei and the others, and also write one to Guo Xiaochuan and his sister, and send them together on the next day.
When they find out that you are married, they will definitely be surprised!
Sending a letter is just a small matter. She also plans to look at houses in Beijing!
The next morning, Yi Xiaoqiu left the army in the car driven by Monkey.
The first thing she did was go to the post office and mail three letters.
One letter was for Guo Xiaochuan and his sister, one was for Shen Ruofei, and one was for Song Ying. As for the others, Yi Xiaoqiu was too lazy to write anymore.
When they arrived in Beijing, Yi Xiaoqiu asked Monkey to drive back.
"Sister-in-law, aren't you going to the Ji family? I'll take you there directly!"
This place is still some distance away from Ji's house, and he was a little worried about leaving Yi Xiaoqiu here alone.
"It's okay, I feel a little carsick and want to walk for a while. Thank you for your hard work." Yi Xiaoqiu put two big peaches on the passenger seat.
Someone came to see her off early in the morning, it would be bad to make him run all the way, right?
When the monkey saw the two big red peaches, he thought they were taken from Ji's house yesterday. He didn't think much about it. Seeing Yi Xiaoqiu was determined, he had to start the car and prepare to leave.
"Sister-in-law, when will you be back? Do you need me to pick you up?"
"Need not."
After the monkey drove away, Yi Xiaoqiu found a secluded place and pushed the pink bicycle that had not been seen for a long time out of the farm.
This time when she went back, she happened to pass her bicycle across the river, so she wouldn't have to trouble others when she went out in the future.
Yi Xiaoqiu rode his bike around the city. To be honest, he was only 76 years old, a foreigner, and had no connections. If he wanted to buy a house here, he would not be able to find a way to do so for the time being.
In the end, she decided to put the matter aside for the time being.
Yi Xiaoqiu rode his bike to Ji's house.
She didn't go empty-handed either, and prepared a lot of fruits, vegetables, live chickens and pork, all of which were available on the farm.
This time, they registered with the security guard again. Ji Shuyan was not there, so the security guard even called the Ji family.
It was more than ten minutes later when Yi Xiaoqiu entered the room.
Yi Xiaoqiu felt a little regretful that she shouldn't have come to Ji's house. Although she and Ji Shuyan were already married and this was like her own home, it was too troublesome to just go in.
I must have my own house in the future.
When Aunt Liu saw Yi Xiaoqiu, it was obvious that she knew she was coming and she was extremely enthusiastic.
When she followed Aunt Liu in, the Ji family had guests, a mother and daughter.
"Oh~ Is this Xiao Ji's kid's wife?" When the older man saw Yi Xiaoqiu coming in, the polite smile on his face froze.
The girl next to the middle-aged woman looked at Yi Xiaoqiu and a flash of jealousy crossed her face.
Feng Ting thought that the wife that Ji Shuyan was forced by his grandfather to marry was a rustic country girl, but she didn't expect that she was so beautiful, and her temperament and dress were no worse than those of the city people.
"Yes! This child is filial. He just came yesterday and came to see me again today, bringing so many things. Xiaoqiu, this is Aunt Wang next door." Grandpa Ji smiled, and he didn't seem to notice the embarrassment on the middle-aged woman's face at all.
"Hello, Aunt Wang, Grandpa, Shu Yan is out on a mission, so I came to keep you company," Yi Xiaoqiu greeted quickly.
The Wang family lives next door. Before, the neighbors didn't know that Ji Shuyan got married in the army. It was not until yesterday that Ji Shuyan brought him back and everyone asked about it, and Aunt Liu told them about it.
Shu Yan brought the child back home himself and said that he recognized him himself, so it’s okay to tell others about it now.
Only then did everyone know that the only son of the Ji family had gotten married quietly.
Just then, Wang Fengqin brought her daughter to Ji's house early in the morning to inquire about the news.
The two families lived close to each other, and their children often interacted with each other. Who among the neighbors didn't know that the boy from the Ji family and her daughter were a married couple?
