About ten minutes later, the bus arrived at the stop. Seeing Yu Changle standing up, the young man next to him stood up politely and gave way.
Yu Changle smiled and thanked him again, then got out of the car with his full pockets.
When I got home, I put away all the things I bought, then put on the noodles and dumpling fillings, preparing to cook a bowl of big meat dumplings for myself.
I packed thirty of them in one go, making myself salivate.
But when the water boiled, she pursed her lips tightly and still only boiled ten of them.
If nothing else, it’s just because of the fat on your body. It’s not good to say it. The key is that it’s unhealthy. In this era, medicine is not so developed, so the body must be well maintained. If you suffer from obesity such as fatty liver at a young age, That is the big thing that will drag you down for the rest of your life!
Looking at the big white and plump dumplings in the bowl, Yu Changle couldn't hold himself back any longer. He didn't bother to heat them, so he picked one up and put it in his mouth.
fragrant! So delicious! I can’t wait to eat them all in one bite!
The last bit of reason reminded her that chewing slowly would not only help digest food but also make her feel fuller. In the end, she endured her greed and slowly finished the ten dumplings in the bowl.
After finishing the meal, he cooked the remaining twenty dumplings, put them in a big bowl, and walked out of the house.
It was almost dinner time, and Li Mei was busy in the kitchen when she suddenly heard someone calling her outside the door: "Is Sister-in-law Li at home?"
She put down the green onions in her hand and walked out of the kitchen as she responded: "Who's here?"
"I, Yu Changle!"
As soon as Li Mei stepped out, she saw Yu Changle standing at the gate of the courtyard holding a big soup bowl. He murmured in his heart, he really thought that she had reformed her evil ways, and she was here to eat again at meal time?
But they were all members of the military, so she was embarrassed to refuse, but she felt a little unhappy: "Dear wife Jiu'an, my sister-in-law's house hasn't opened fire yet."
Yu Changle laughed when he heard this, knowing that he was afraid of being cheated by the original owner. After all, no one had much food.
"It's just right if you don't turn on the fire! I cooked some pork dumplings, which should be enough for you and the kids!"
Meng Jiuan said that there are training camps these days, and her Lao Wang should not be at home either. Twenty dumplings are enough for her and her mother.
Hearing that there were pork dumplings, Lili, who was doing her homework in the back room, put down her pen and ran to Yu Changle. She stood on tiptoe and looked around: "Aunt, they smell so good. Are they really pork dumplings?"
The greedy look of the little cat made Yu Changle laugh: "Bring it in and try it with chopsticks, then you'll know?"
Lili happily took the soup bowl and ran into the kitchen to get chopsticks. She picked up one and bit it: "Well... Auntie, it's stuffed with pork! It's so delicious!"
Li Mei saw her daughter's mouth full of juice after eating, but she didn't realize it for a moment. It was beyond her expectation that Yu Changle wasn't just here to eat, and why did he bring such a big bowl of pork dumplings to her?
She subconsciously looked at the horizon. Was the sun coming out of the west?
Yu Changle said with a smile: "Share the delicious food with mom!"
Lili swallowed the dumplings in her mouth obediently, and sweetly shouted to Li Mei: "Mom, come and eat the dumplings cooked by Aunt Yu. They are stuffed with pork. They are delicious!"
Only then did Li Mei come back to her senses, and said to Yu Changle at a loss: "This... how embarrassing is this? How much meat and noodles does such a big bowl of dumplings cost..."
Yu Changle smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be polite to me. I eat a lot of your food on weekdays."
In the memory of the original owner, there was no family in the entire military compound that she had not taken advantage of. There were a few families among them who were easy to talk to, and the couple were nice people. They were visited by her frequently, and Li Mei's family was one of them.
"This is my first time making dumplings. Sister-in-law, would you like to try them while they are still hot and give me some advice?"
Hearing what Yu Changle said, Li Mei was no longer so embarrassed and started laughing: "You can tell it's right by the smell."
The dumpling noodles are chewy and chewy, and the meat filling is pure meat. There is no vegetable filling at all. Li Mei was surprised: "You...are you making pure meat filling?"
Li Mei couldn't help but feel sorry for her. This little daughter-in-law really doesn't know how to live. Who can make dumplings without adding vegetables to the filling? How many dumplings can be made with this pure meat.
Yu Changle was a little shy when she heard this. She was so focused on buying meat that she really forgot to buy vegetables.
She blushed slightly and replied: "Sister-in-law also knows that I don't grow any vegetables in my yard, not even onions..."
"Hey! You should have told me if you had no vegetables! There are so many in my sister-in-law's yard. Whatever you want, my sister-in-law will pick them for you."
Li Mei felt completely comfortable now, and she felt sorry for accepting Yu Changle's large bowl of pork dumplings for nothing. She would pick more vegetables and send them back later.
Yu Changle waved his hand: "No, sister-in-law, I came here today to borrow something else from you."
Li Mei felt a thump in her heart. It seemed that this bowl of pork dumplings was not so delicious. What did she want to borrow? Isn't it borrowing money?
Just as he was hesitating how to answer the call, he heard Yu Changle continue: "I would like to borrow your sewing machine tomorrow, is that okay?"
Sewing machines were quite big items at this time. There were only two families in the entire military compound, one was the Song Chunlan family and the other was the Li Mei family.
He and Song Chunlan had already formed a relationship, so naturally he couldn't borrow it from her. Li Mei was a nice person, and she could stand up for him at critical moments, so he should be able to borrow it.
When she heard that she was borrowing a sewing machine, Li Mei breathed a big sigh of relief and responded quickly: "Okay, you can come over anytime you want to use it tomorrow. You don't have to be so polite."
Yu Changle smiled and thanked her, his chubby little face smiling particularly joyfully. Even Li Mei felt that she looked much more pleasing to the eye today.
Before leaving, Li Mei picked some vegetables from the courtyard and gave them to Yu Changle, and stood at the door of the courtyard to see her off happily.
This was the first time that Yu Changle came to her home, and she didn't feel upset at all!
Just as Yu Changle left, before Li Mei could close the courtyard door, a figure jumped out from the courtyard wall, startling her.
"Sister-in-law Li, is that greedy guy here to eat again?"
The person who suddenly appeared to speak was Liu Fang. She looked at Yu Changle's back with disgust and asked disdainfully.
Li Mei patted her chest, frowned and said, "Do you know, people are scary, scary to death!"
Liu Fang didn't hear Li Mei's dissatisfaction at all, and wanted to find out why Yu Changle came to Li's house: "Is she here to cause trouble again? You are so easy to talk to, so she slaps you in the face every day! If it were me, what would happen to me? The beggar who comes to beg for food must be scolded out by pointing her nose at her!"
Li Mei suddenly turned cold when she heard this: "What are you talking about? Changle is bringing dumplings to my house! Even if she comes to my house to eat, it doesn't bother you. How can she become a beggar? Besides, what happened to the beggar? She came to your house. Are you begging for food? You still have to point your nose and curse, if I can get you!"
