Shen Lianqing walked around the village very unhappy. The weather was nice. Some people came out to see her and greeted her enthusiastically, "Hey, Sister-in-law Ji, you were kicked back when you went back to your parents' home?!"
How unreasonable!
"No, of course not!"
Shen Lianqing's face turned red with anger. She grabbed a handful of snow, rolled it into a ball, and threw it directly at the person who spoke. When the person was stunned, she took off her legs and ran away.
When they got home, Ji Mao hadn't come back yet. Fu Qu heard the noise and sent back Ji Dabao, who had been watching him all day. He brought her breakfast. Looking at her red face after washing, he rubbed Ji Dabao's head to let him When he returned to the room, he smiled and chatted with her.
"Where did my sister-in-law go yesterday?"
Why didn't she just tell him and just throw Ji Dabao to him and disappear? Does she think she is some kind of servant who can help her take care of her children?
"It's not Ji Er yet!"
"What's wrong?" Fu Qu asked casually following her words.
Shen Lianqing completely forgot that they were awkwardly entangled some time ago and she was verbally threatened by Fu Qu. As soon as Ji Mao's incident came out, she replaced him as Fu Qu's position as the most hated person in her heart. She Can't help but complain.
"I just wanted to follow him up the mountain to play yesterday, but he wouldn't shoot squirrels for me, rabbits for me when I saw them, and deer for me when I saw them! He said he didn't have any tools, so he had to Dig wild ginseng.”
"But then he walked further and further. Not only did he get lost, he also encountered a bear..."
Fu Qu's heart tightened when he heard this. Although he knew that she was fine in front of him, he still couldn't help but ask her, "What next?"
"Then he took me away and spent the night in a narrow tree hole!"
"Do you think he is too much and useless?!" Shen Lianqing took a mouthful of porridge and complained. What made her most angry was that he asked her to walk back alone in the village this morning, and everyone laughed at her!
It turned out that they stayed together last night?
Fu Qu smiled slightly. He saw her coming back alone this morning and thought...
He sighed and looked at her, Qing Jun's eyebrows showing a hint of sympathy, "Yes, Ji Mao is useless enough. If Huai Jin was here, he would never let his sister-in-law experience such a disaster."
"Really?" Shen Lianqing's interest in going up the mountain has not diminished. She still wants to go. Does Fu Qu mean that if he goes out with her to play, he can guarantee that she will have a great time?
"nature."
"Then..." Now that it's settled...?
"Sister-in-law, Brother Fu."
Ji Mao returned home at some point. He brushed off the snow from his body and walked up to them in a few steps. His face was expressionless, "What are you talking about?"
"Uh, it's nothing." Shen Lianqing felt embarrassed about being caught saying bad things behind someone's back. She swallowed half of what she was about to say. Seeing that there was still a bun on the table that she couldn't eat, she immediately changed the subject. , "Amaung, where have you been and come back? Have you eaten? If not, my sister-in-law left a bun for you!"
"Yeah." Ji Mao sat directly between the two of them, raised his hand to pick up the bun, took a bite, and looked at Shen Lianqing, "It's delicious. Thank you, sister-in-law."
Shen Lian smiled brightly, "They are all my brothers, you're welcome!" She didn't make it anyway, and she didn't want to eat it.
"good."
Ji Mao lowered his eyebrows and swallowed a big bun in two or three mouthfuls.
Fu Qu noticed that the atmosphere between them was different. The smile on his lips did not diminish, but his heart sank. Could it be that something happened between them last night?
"sister in law."
He briefly wanted to test Shen Lianqing, but Shen Lianqing looked at him across Ji Mao in the middle and blinked, "What, what? What do you want to eat for lunch?"
Stewed chicken with ginseng?
She was so happy when she drank hot soup on a cold day and felt her whole body warm!
Fu Qu was so angry at her that he laughed. Eat, eat, eat. She only eats and takes advantage every day, right?
He suppressed the sudden surge of emotions in his heart, with a light smile on his face and gentle and picturesque eyebrows, "Of course, sister-in-law, Huaijin can do whatever you want."
Ji Mao was silent among them for a long time. Then he suddenly unbuttoned his fur coat silently, took out a package of beggar's chickens tightly wrapped in oil paper and placed it on the table, "Sister-in-law, here it is for you."
Shen Lian quickly brought it over with blue eyes and quick hands, and asked while untying the rope, "This is it?"
Ji Mao calmly blocked Fu Qu's gaze from Shen Lianqing with his body. He faced Shen Lianqing and replied, "It was given by someone else. I thought you might like it, sister-in-law, so I brought it back."
"Okay, okay! Ji Mao, you are good!" Shen Lianqing likes free things the most. Ji Mao really understands her, and she can't help but give him a thumbs up.
Ji Mao was a little overwhelmed when he was praised by her for the first time. His face turned red, his fingers were slightly curled, and he lowered his head slightly and said, "As long as sister-in-law likes it."
Ah.
Fu Qu couldn't help but sneer in his heart. It was a gift from someone else. Don't think he didn't know that the beggar's chicken was Xiangmanlou's signature dish. He used to eat there often and he knew the smell as soon as he smelled it.
He was unwilling to be cut off midway, "Sister-in-law, won't you drink ginseng and chicken soup?"
"This..." Shen Lianqing wanted to eat, but eating two kinds of chicken in one day would be a bit boring.
"Forget it." Fu Qu got up from the stool, his dark hair hanging behind him like a piece of smooth and shiny satin.
He sighed and turned to leave, "In addition to ginseng stewed chicken, Huaijin originally had many other dishes waiting for sister-in-law Ji. Since sister-in-law doesn't like it, then Huaijin..."
Fu Qu is a boss comparable to an imperial chef! How could she lose the big for the small?
"No." Shen Lianqing quickly dropped the beggar's chicken in her hand and pulled Fu Qu, using the loudest voice in her life to comfort her, "Xiao Fu~ don't leave! Other chickens are just passers-by, the chicken you make is the best." It’s my sister-in-law’s favorite, believe me!”
"Really?" Fu Qu turned sideways, with a smile on his face and a just right curve on his red lips under his tall nose.
Shen Lianqing nodded, "Naturally."
Behind them, Ji Mao slowly stood up from the table and suddenly said, "Brother Fu, haven't you always disliked my sister-in-law? You even paid me a huge reward for entrusting you with cooking. Why did you do it as soon as I came back?" Are you so attentive? Could it be that you are profiting from my sister-in-law?"
What?
Shen Lianqing looked at Ji Mao and then at Fu Qu. He was also looking at her. His eyes were uncertain, as if Ji Mao had spoken his mind. Shen Lianqing opened his eyes and let go of his hand.
It's profitable, what does Fu Qu want to do to her? !
Although Shen Lianqing didn't have anything valuable on her, she was unhappy when she heard that others were taking advantage of her.
Ji Mao used to be taciturn. Fu Qu never knew that he could say so many words, and every word he said was well-founded and he attacked him.
Ah.
His eyelashes were slender and clear. He did not directly refute Ji Mao, but lowered his eyes to look at Shen Lianqing. His eyes were quite gentle and affectionate, "Why am I so good to my sister-in-law? It's ok if we understand it. Sister-in-law, don't you think so?" "
