The first person to notice Qin Jiulie coming in was not Jiang Ning, but Yang Rui.
As soon as Yang Rui saw Qin Jiulie, she became nervous instantly, with even a little fear on her face.
It is a natural cowardice towards men who are tall and have a cold temperament.
She looked at Jiang Ning and then at Qin Jiulie.
Her Zhao Shuisheng still has some of the ruffianism and roughness of Northeastern men.
But Qin Jiulie was completely cold and abstinent.
One is such a gentle and charming woman, and the other is a cold-faced officer known throughout the army.
How did these two people become husband and wife? !
Yang Rui was curious and scared at the same time.
After her eyes turned around in horror for a few times, she finally chose to run away.
Leave the small kitchen space to Jiang Ning and Qin Jiulie.
only.
When Yang Rui walked to the door, she couldn't help but look back.
This one glance was a big deal.
In her eyes, he was unsmiling and full of evil aura. He looked more terrifying than Zhao Shuisheng, but beside Jiang Ning, he slowed down his tone and spoke in a low voice.
"Daughter-in-law, you've worked hard. The dumplings, steamed buns and steamed buns have all been steamed in the pot. Look, is there anything else you need my help with?"
Yang Rui's eyes suddenly widened.
From where she stood, she couldn't clearly see Qin Jiulie's expression when he spoke.
But just listening to the literal meaning of this sentence, you can also understand this man's concern for Jiang Ning.
as well as--
Qin Jiulie is the commander of the entire army!
He is majestic and has so many soldiers and other officers under his command.
But in front of Jiang Ning.
His military position, his military exploits... all seemed to have disappeared.
He is just a man, a woman's husband.
It was the first time for Yang Rui to see such an intimate and equal relationship between husband and wife.
Not to mention in reality, she has never seen it even in her favorite novels.
Her mind shook.
The whole person was in a daze and took a few steps forward.
…
In the small kitchen.
Jiang Ning replied to Qin Jiulie with a smile.
"I've almost prepared the other dishes. And with the help of my sisters-in-law, I'm busy enough and I'm not too tired. But at this time, the guests will be here soon, right? Don't you have to entertain them?"
"Need not."
Qin Jiulie denied it succinctly.
There was a pause.
Just added another sentence.
"If Gao Zai is there, he will entertain you."
What he meant at the moment was not that he didn't need to entertain, but that he wanted to be by Jiang Ning's side more than entertaining guests.
After finally taking a vacation, because of the invitation to dinner, the two of them couldn't talk properly.
Not to mention other more intimate contacts.
One can imagine the irritability and depression in Qin Jiulie's heart.
Jiang Ning felt it vaguely, and couldn't help but smile sweetly.
She picked up a rice ball and put it into Qin Jiulie's hand.
Let him eat rice balls while watching her work.
There was still a lot of rice that had been left to cool before, as well as diced cucumbers, corn kernels, and lightly fried bacon. They were all crispy and burnt, and they were all cut into small pieces.
This time.
What Jiang Ning put in was no longer sesame oil, but chicken fir oil.
The chicken fir fungus in the chicken fir oil is just like the shredded pork, and is also added to it.
Stir to form a ball.
Jiang Ning held his hands together and turned his wrists gently.
The rice balls she made were all round, big and beautiful.
After being fed, Qin Jiulie ate the food in his mouth and looked at the food in the pot. He always felt that Jiang Ning's new rice balls seemed more fragrant.
He asked, "Daughter-in-law, they are both rice balls, why did you make two kinds of rice balls? How troublesome it is."
Jiang Ning explained, "The previous rice balls were not spicy and could be eaten by children. There are a lot of chili peppers in this chicken fir oil, which has a strong taste. It is not suitable for children. Only when adults eat it will it taste better—— "
Talking.
Jiang Ning grabbed a handful of rice that had been mixed.
He raised his hand and fed it to Qin Jiulie's mouth.
"Try it and see if this one tastes better."
Qin Jiulie looked at Jiang Ning with dark eyes, opened his mouth and took a bite.
All his attention was initially focused on Jiang Ning's slightly red face.
But wait for the taste to dissipate on your tongue.
The man suddenly looked surprised and even raised his eyebrows.
tasty!
The aroma of coriander mushrooms, a slight spiciness, and just the right amount of oil.
This taste immediately opens up the taste buds on the tongue.
Totally eye-catching.
Even Qin Jiulie felt greedy and wanted to take a few more bites.
However--
"Hey - I came at the wrong time! Why is Commander Qin here? I really bothered you young couple... I didn't see it, I didn't see anything! Hahaha, they are indeed a newlywed couple, this Ni Ni Wai Wai Wai Wai …”
The sister-in-law who suddenly broke in said nothing.
But the ambiguous snicker on his face was already all over his face.
Plus she was yelling like this.
On the contrary, more people gathered around, poking their heads out to see what the newlywed couple was doing in the kitchen.
Jiang Ning's face suddenly turned redder.
She pushed Qin Jiulie gently and said, "You go back first. My sisters-in-law are all here. It's not appropriate for a grown man like you to stay here for too long."
The slightly trembling eyelashes hang down long.
But he still couldn't hide the shyness in Jiang Ning's eyes.
"Um."
Qin Jiulie whispered, and after taking a deep look, he turned and left.
…
Jiang Ning blushed and took a breath.
The remaining dishes are relatively simple and homely.
Fish-flavored shredded pork, Mapo tofu, stir-fried vegetables, and stir-fried mushrooms with chili.
Hot stir-fries are served one after another.
When Sister Xu came again, she was surprised to find out.
"Sister Ning, why did you make two copies of the same meal?"
"Sister Xu, one portion is for the men, and one portion is for the sisters-in-law! They eat theirs, and we women eat women's. We are all the same."
This is what Jiang Ning had envisioned from the beginning.
It's not that there's any bullshit reason why women can't be on the table, but there are just too many people here today.
For example, Commander He, Instructor Liang... they are all senior officers. When the men talk, there will inevitably be some things that are inconvenient for them to know.
So let’s have a table for men and a table for women, so that everyone can feel more comfortable and talk more conveniently.
Sister Xu did not expect Jiang Ning to have such ideological awareness.
The other sisters-in-law didn’t expect that there would be food for them.
This time, it became even more lively.
Sister Xu nodded repeatedly, "Sister Ning is right! Men and women are the same! We can eat it too!"
The sisters-in-law said happily.
"I still have some spicy dried fish hidden at home, but I didn't even want to eat it during the Chinese New Year. I'll go get it, and then we'll eat it. We eat better than the men!"
