The amount of meat they ate at home could be counted on one hand, especially after her brother became disabled.
Her mother exchanged all the meat coupons at home for egg coupons from the neighbors to nourish her brother.
It had been a long time since there was any fragrance coming out of the kitchen, not to mention the aroma of eggs mixed with the sourness of tomatoes, which was so fragrant that it made people salivate.
When Gu Jiaojiao looked up, she saw the young lady from the Su family with her eyes wide open, not knowing whether she was surprised or angry.
"Aren't eggs meant to be eaten?"
"That's for my brother's nutrition. We can't eat it." The younger sister of the Su family said stubbornly while swallowing her saliva.
"I didn't say it was for you. I made it for my parents and your brother."
"You...you...how can you be so vicious?" Su Qinchun stuttered in anger.
Seeing Su Qinchun guarding his food like this, Gu Jiaojiao felt bad too. In that era, one needed a permit to go out, a ticket to eat, and sugar and oil were in limited supply.
She doesn’t know what to do in the future. It would be great if her space was still there!
"Jiaojiao, you eat first. Don't pay attention to Chunnizi. We still have eggs at home. Although it's a bit difficult to eat meat, it's still possible to eat eggs."
Su's mother was afraid that her ignorant daughter would scare her daughter-in-law away, so she quickly made a promise.
"Mom, let's go eat noodles together." Gu Jiaojiao's eyes turned red in an instant.
In this strange world, I am lucky to have such a good mother-in-law.
Su's mother carried the noodles and walked into the living room. The Su family did not have a separate dining room, so they all ate in the living room.
Su Shuoci also came out in a wheelchair, wearing a white shirt and green military pants.
Su's father helped him push the wheelchair to the dining table. The wheelchairs at that time were not as flexible as those in later generations and could not turn at will.
"Ci boy, this is the tomato and egg noodles cooked by your wife, please eat more."
"Yeah." Su Shuoci responded without comment.
Looking at the steaming tomato and egg noodles in the bowl, Su Shuoci felt a little complicated.
Although he had been married for three days, he had never thought about getting along well with his wife.
Especially on the wedding day, his new wife publicly scolded him as a disabled peasant and a toad wanting to eat swan flesh.
Does he want to eat swan meat?
He didn't want to get married when he had all his limbs intact, so how could he want to get married when he was paralyzed?
It was his immediate superior, Commander Sheng, who came to talk to him personally and said painfully that his adopted daughter had been weak and sickly since childhood and was unable to have children.
After causing such a stir with him, I will be looked down upon by others no matter who I marry in the future.
On the contrary, marrying him, who is paralyzed on one side, is the best outcome for her, and she listens to her boss.
Only then did he realize that it was the two brothers of the Sheng family who had plotted against him.
Su Shuoci refused even more righteously, saying that he was paralyzed on one side and could not marry.
But his immediate superior appealed to his emotions and explained it to him with reason.
As a man, you should be filial to your parents, and marrying a well-behaved wife will also make your parents feel at ease.
Su Shuoci is not a person who would compromise, but he has a secret deep in his heart, so he compromised.
Although he has lived in the compound for several years, he is not familiar with the people there.
Teacher Sheng said that his adopted daughter was well-behaved and sensible, but she almost turned the Su family upside down on her wedding day.
The foul language he used was even worse than the shrews he had seen in the countryside since he was a child.
Her behavior completely overturned his three views, but he still endured the disgust.
He handed her the stone pendant that held his infinite hope, but she actually threw it to the ground and said.
"You crippled peasant, you're trying to disgust me with a broken stone. Even if you give me your heart, I won't be moved."
Then, she kept cursing and fainted. Doctor Sun said that she was just very angry and didn't want to wake up.
As long as he wakes up, there will be no problem, but he must be well taken care of and not be stimulated again.
For the past two days he had been waiting for her to scold him after she woke up.
It is impossible to get a divorce, even though we are tired of each other, since she is not a good person.
He planned to drag her to death and torture each other to death.
But when she woke up, she had changed and was eating noodles in small bites.
It was as if she was eating some delicacies from land and sea. This was what Master Sheng meant by well-behaved behavior, and he couldn't bear to drag her down.
Should I file for divorce?
But……
"Ci bastard? Ci bastard? What's wrong? Is it not tasty?" Su's mother shouted anxiously.
Seeing her son staring at the noodles in the bowl in a daze, Su's mother was afraid that her son would dislike Jiaojiao.
Such a good daughter-in-law is hard to find even with a lantern.
Hearing his mother's cry, Su Shuoci came back to his senses and said, "Mom, it's okay, it's delicious."
"As long as it tastes good, Mom just saw your wife busy in the kitchen. She specially made such delicious noodles for us to eat."
Su Shuoci didn't respond. He picked up a piece of noodles with chopsticks and put it in his mouth. Instantly, the delicious taste filled his taste buds.
Is she really the same woman from three days ago?
Su Shuoci raised his eyes again and looked at the little woman opposite him who was eating noodles seriously.
It was as if she was not eating ordinary noodles, but some kind of delicacies from land and sea.
Gu Jiaojiao turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside the window and was only focused on the noodles in the bowl.
Even Su Qinchun was conquered by the bowl of noodles made by Gu Jiaojiao. He ate it with great effort. It was so delicious.
"Chun Nizi, after dinner, take your sister-in-law to see if there is anything she needs to buy."
"Well, Gu, sister-in-law, do you want to go out for a walk?" Su Qinchun wanted to go out for a walk.
She has been cleaning the house these two days. Also, Gu Jiaojiao is dressed very beautifully today, so she should go out and show it to those gossips.
"Then let's go and take a look." Seeing that Su Qinchun's attitude had improved, Gu Jiaojiao was willing to give her a chance to perform.
As soon as the aunt and sister-in-law walked out of the yard, they heard a group of women, young and old, gossiping. When they saw the people they were gossiping about, they couldn't stop.
"Su Shuoci is such a good man. If he hadn't been injured and paralyzed, how could he have been plotted against by Sick Xishi?"
"Is this true? Was it really planned by Gu Jiaojiao? Captain Su is so pitiful."
"Who said it wasn't? Marrying a fake daughter was bad luck in the first place, but Gu Jiaojiao caused a scene at the wedding and even fainted from anger."
"I think the Su family is too nice. A woman like this deserves a beating. She'll behave herself after a few beatings."
"Yes, yes, yes, the wife who is beaten should be beaten severely for kneading the dough."
"That consumptive Gu Jiaojiao couldn't stand a slap from Su Shuoci."
"Could it be that Gu Jiaojiao was beaten unconscious by Su Shuoci?" a woman asked, covering her mouth.
"Who knows? It is said that she was not unconscious before entering the bridal chamber, but fell into a coma afterward."
"Are you telling the truth? How do you know so clearly?"
"I live next door to them, and I can see it clearly from the second floor..."
"Who are you talking about?" Gu Jiaojiao asked softly.
