Meng Jiuan frowned, this voice was all too familiar.
Why did he come here again?
Baichuan came in through the open door carelessly and greeted several people with a smile:
"Hey, it's such a big table. Fortunately, I'm here!"
Yu Changle thought that he and Meng Jiu'an came back together, but they just came in a few steps late, and the feeling of cramping was reduced a lot.
If Meng Jiu'an really went home to eat alone, she didn't know what to think!
It's much more normal with Bai Chuan. Yesterday, he and Yu Changxi seemed to regret meeting each other so late that they had endless things to talk about.
Bai Chuan admired that Yu Changxi was a college student, educated and knew a lot of things that he didn't understand;
Yu Changxi admired Bai Chuan as a soldier and heroic spirit, and told him many exciting military deeds.
The two had similar temperaments, and Baichuan was cheerful and easy-going. If they hadn't finished drinking, they would have talked until dawn.
Sure enough, Yu Chang was delighted to see Baichuan coming, and immediately stood up and gave him a big hug:
"Brother Baichuan, you are here too, sit down quickly!"
After saying that, he automatically went to the kitchen and got him a pair of dishes and chopsticks.
Bai Chuan sat down next to Meng Jiu'an with a smile on his face, and whispered: "Eat a big meal yourself, ask me to eat in the cafeteria, that's fine, Lao Meng."
Meng Jiuan said with a straight face: "If you want to have a big meal, go back to your own home to eat!"
Baichuan, who felt that he had caught Lao Meng's weakness, smiled nonchalantly, with an expression like you asked for it, and said to Yu Changle:
"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry to bother you again. After get off work, I told Lao Meng that we would just eat in the cafeteria to save my sister-in-law trouble. Who knew Lao Meng would have to..."
Before he finished speaking, a steamed bun was stuffed into his mouth, and Meng Jiuan said a few words through his teeth:
"If you want to eat, just eat and don't talk!"
Bai Chuan smiled proudly, look, you stuffed this into my mouth and asked me to eat it!
Yu Changle listened to half of what he said, but he also cleverly guessed the meaning of his words, and he felt a little uncomfortable unconsciously.
Meng Jiuan acted so well that she almost believed it.
Although the food was rich today, there was no wine, so the meal ended not long after.
Meng Jiu'an excused himself that he would have training early tomorrow morning and had to go back to stay in the army tonight, so he picked up Bai Chuan and left.
Bai Chuan drove here, and he drove back too.
Along the way, Meng Jiuan kept a straight face and said nothing.
Bai Chuan broke the silence: "Lao Meng, I really think you treat your sister-in-law a little differently."
Meng Jiuan's eyes flashed and he said coldly: "Is this the reason why you came here?"
There was a hint of embarrassment on Bai Chuan's face: "I'm just curious, don't you think you've changed a lot during this time?"
Meng Jiu'an said stiffly: "I don't think so, as I said before, take care of yourself and don't talk nonsense every day. Why do you mean I insist? What do you want others to think when you say this?"
"Oh——" Baichuan looked like he suddenly realized, "So you are unhappy about this sentence!"
"I'm right, you've just changed. When have you ever cared about what others think?"
"Let me be more specific. This other person is my sister-in-law, right?"
Baichuan shouted and pulled off Meng Jiuan's fig leaf without any politeness.
Meng Jiu'an was a little angry, but he didn't know how to refute, so he suppressed his anger and refused to answer.
Bai Chuan gave him a clear look, and it seemed that he needed to give him a few words of advice as a brother.
"It's not just you, everyone changes. Don't you think my sister-in-law has changed too?"
Meng Jiu'an's face softened a little: "...What has happened to her?"
When Baichuan saw the mention of Yu Changle, he answered, snickering in his heart, but with a serious look on his face:
"You have become a more virtuous wife and mother. Didn't you see that the dishes on today's table are delicious, delicious and delicious? What a good craftsmanship!"
Thinking of the "whole egg banquet" cooked by Yu Changle, a faint smile flashed across Meng Jiuan's face:
“There are so many eggs on the table!”
Bai Chuan felt aggrieved for Yu Changle: "You don't understand this. Just one egg can produce so many tricks. This is called ingenuity!"
Meng Jiuan smiled slightly, but did not refute again.
Bai Chuan struck while the iron was hot: "You can't live in such a good life? I advise you to think about it carefully."
The implication was that Meng Jiu'an should think carefully, not to divorce such a good wife, but also to defend him in front of the political commissar, and to be a good cook.
What's more, after getting in touch with him, Yu Changle didn't have any of the treacherous, lazy and greedy habits mentioned in the rumors. Instead, he was generous, decent, smart and capable.
What more could I ask for from such a virtuous wife!
Meng Jiu'an said nothing. He also felt that Yu Changle had changed a lot these days, but he was not sure whether it was just a temporary change or a real change.
Seeing Meng Jiu'an's thoughtful look, Bai Chuan rarely closed his mouth quietly, hoping that Lao Meng could think clearly on his own and not leave himself with eternal regrets.
——
Because of Yu Changxi's unexpected arrival, preparations for the opening of the clothing store were also delayed for a day.
Early the next morning, Li Mei, a loyal fan of Yu Changle, came over with a large bowl of millet porridge.
"Good morning, Sister-in-law Li!"
Yu Changxi heard her sister greeting people in the yard and came out to say hello: "Sister-in-law Li, good morning. Thank you for the food you delivered last time."
Li Mei liked Yu Changxi's talented appearance and said, "Good morning! Look at this college student who is different. He is handsome and polite. How old is he this year?"
Yu Changxi replied politely: "I will be seventeen when school starts."
"You're admitted to college at the age of seventeen? It's true that heroes come from young, and they are so promising at such a young age!"
The more Li Mei looked at her, the more curious she became. She suddenly remembered that she had a niece who was also sixteen years old this year. She had just graduated from high school and was pretty and pretty. The two of them looked like a perfect match.
"Do you have a partner?"
This is the most critical issue. Seventeen years old is considered young among those who are studying. For those who work in factories, some have already been working for two years. Children of this age have already given birth to children who wake up early.
"ah?"
Yu Changxi's face turned red, and she shook her head repeatedly. She kept looking at Yu Changle to ask for help.
Yu Changle smiled and said: "Not yet, but he should be someone he likes."
As soon as these words came out, Yu Changxi's already red face turned even redder and couldn't stand it: "Sister!"
It's a pity that I fell in love with someone.
Li Mei was a little disappointed. It was rare to see such a good guy, but in the end her heart fell in love with him.
After uncovering this episode, Li Mei remembered coming to see Yu Changle:
"Changle, the clothes you asked me to make for the opening are all ready. Should we go into the city and decorate them in the store today?"
According to the announced opening time, it would open in three days, and she would not know if she did not arrange it in advance.
Seeing that Li Mei was so interested, Yu Changle was also very happy:
"Okay, after breakfast and tidying up, we'll go into the city to prepare for the opening!"
