Chapter 32 Returning Home



"Weifang, I will just hold you and won't move."

"Okay!" Zhang Weifang agreed reluctantly.

That night, the two of them fell asleep like this. Li Hongru saw that Zhang Weifang was uncomfortable, so he didn't force her anymore.

The next day was the day to return to the parents' home. The two got up early in the morning. The return gifts were prepared early in the morning, including a bottle of wine, two boxes of cigarettes, half a pound of brown sugar, half a pound of meat, and some cakes.

Zhang Weifang exchanged some cotton cloth in the system space and planned to secretly take it back to have them make clothes.

After a good sleep, Zhang Weifang felt much better, and the two of them rode their bikes back to Shuanglong Village.

"Mom and Dad, Weishuang, I'm back." Although he had only been away from home for three days, Zhang Weifang felt like he was thousands of miles away from home.

"Sister, you're back. How are you doing? Is your brother-in-law good to you?" Zhang Weishuang asked questions one after another, for he was worried that his elder sister was not doing well.

"I'm doing well, don't worry." Zhang Weifang said, then changed the subject:

"Mom and Dad, the Li family has split up, and the two of us are living in the city now."

"Ah? Split up? That's fine, you two can just live your own lives."

Li Hongru stayed with his father-in-law while they returned to their room. As soon as they entered, Zhang Qiaona asked:

"Why did you split up when everything was fine? Did you have a fight?"

"There was no quarrel, it's just..." Zhang Weifang told Zhang Qiao Na about the division of the family, and she understood what was going on.

"It's normal to have so many brothers and it's better to separate them." Overall, Zhang Qiao Na was satisfied. After her daughter separated from the family, she could be the master of the household and wouldn't be bullied in the future.

"Mom, isn't it time for the harvest in a couple of days? Should I come back and help?"

"Why are you back now that you're married?"

"It's not good for me to stay idle if I don't come back. I will have to go to my husband's house to help. It's better for me to come back to our house."

"That's fine, you can come back and help with cooking or something."

The two of them didn't stay long and went back after having dinner. Before leaving, Zhang Weifang gave the cloth to Zhang Weishuang and asked her to make clothes.

"Sister, I have clothes, don't worry about me. Spend less money on our family, otherwise my brother-in-law will be angry."

"Okay, got it. I'm leaving now. I'll come back in a few days."

After returning home, the two kissed and hugged each other for the whole afternoon, and their relationship became much better. However, Zhang Weifang still didn't let them touch each other and wanted to wait three days for recovery.

Li Hongru could only look but not eat, and was very dissatisfied. He whined and wanted more. Zhang Weifang stared at him with tears in her eyes without saying a word, and Li Hongru's heart softened immediately.

Li Hongru's honeymoon leave was only three days. The next day, he made breakfast and went to work. Zhang Weifang was still sleeping when he left.

It was past 9 o'clock and the sun was shining directly in. Zhang Weifang opened his eyes drowsily. His round eyes were covered with a misty fog, like clear dewdrops.

She stayed in bed for a long time before getting up. She saw a boiled egg and a steamed bun on the stove, so Zhang Weifang ate them directly with water.

She felt a bit bored being alone at home, so she planned to clean up the house. The big wardrobe they bought before getting married had not been organized yet, so Zhang Weifang just wanted to tidy up the things inside.

He and she also tidied up the things in the kitchen, but found that there were still a lot of things missing. Zhang Weifang decided to go shopping in the department store in the afternoon.

She checked the money and tickets in the house again. There was 213.56 yuan in money, 3 food tickets, one industrial ticket, and one snack ticket. This was all the family assets of the two of them.

The family is not well off, but it is enough for now.

At noon, Zhang Weifang made pancakes. She especially likes pancakes, but due to limited conditions, she hasn't eaten them for a long time.

Now that she is married, Zhang Weifang has let go and cooks whatever she wants.

The golden and soft pancakes are divided into layers. At this time, the pancakes are made on a cast iron griddle, which is convenient and quick. Apart from being more oil-intensive, there are no other problems.

Not everyone has this thing, so many people have to borrow it from others.

Zhang Weifang bought it in the system mall. She made pancakes with the remaining white flour, made an egg soup, and fried a zucchini.

At this time, the vegetables in the vegetable garden were old. The cucumbers and tomatoes were gone. There were only a few chili peppers and a few eggplants left. Unfortunately, Zhang Weifang didn't like to eat them.

As soon as he got off work at noon, Li Hongru rushed home. His colleagues in the office even joked with him:

“Hongru, this is a married person, very anxious!”

It took only ten minutes to get home. Li Hongru originally wanted to go home and cook, but he didn't expect that Zhang Weifang had already prepared the meal. He felt both touched and guilty.

"Weifang, from now on, just wait for me to come back and cook. You don't have to do these."

He knew that Zhang Weifang did nothing at her parents' home, and he couldn't lower his standards after getting married.

"It's okay. I'm free at home too. But I might be a bit of a spendthrift, so don't despise me."

"Weifang, just cook whatever you want to eat. Don't worry about me. I can do anything." Li Hongru was so happy that he couldn't contain his joy when someone cooked for him. How could he possibly dislike it?

When the meal was served from the kitchen, Li Hongru's eyes widened. He hadn't eaten pure white flour pancakes for several years.

The soft pancakes and egg soup are a perfect match. In fact, they are even better with mixed soup. Zhang Weifang’s skills are not good, so she didn’t mess around.

"Weifang, there is a griddle at home. When did you buy it?" Li Hongru only discovered that there was something extra at home after finishing his meal.

“Just bought it today.”

"Are there enough tickets?" Li Hongru asked casually.

"I didn't use the ticket, so I exchanged it with someone else. It cost me 3.5 yuan."

"Be careful when you go out on your own next time. You can wait for me to come back to buy things. It will be difficult for you to carry such heavy things back."

"knew."

In the afternoon, Zhang Weifang went out for a walk and bought two large jars, one for storing white flour and the other for pickling sauerkraut later.

She plans to switch to eating white flour in the future, as white flour tastes better on the stomach.

As for how to tell Li Hongru, she doesn't know yet.

In the system mall, one point can be exchanged for one kilogram of white flour, which is a bit expensive, but Zhang Weifang still bought 100 kilograms, after all, it is on sale now.

In the afternoon, Zhang Weifang picked all the peppers, chopped them up, added some salt and vinegar and pickled them. They can also be eaten as pickles.

Looking at the five eggplants on the chopping board, Zhang Weifang felt a little embarrassed. In fact, she also liked to eat roasted eggplants, but her skills were not up to par and she had failed before, so she didn't dare to try it easily.

She decided to let Li Hongru do it in the evening, and she would provide guidance from the side.

Zhang Weifang wanted to steam some buns again, but she didn't know how to make dough, and didn't know how much alkaline flour and old flour to put in. After thinking about it, she decided not to make things difficult for herself.

In the evening, as soon as Li Hongru entered the door, he saw his wife sitting on a bench and looking at him eagerly.
