Siheyuan: Happy life of veteran drivers

After Yan explained the situation like this, the previously harmonious atmosphere suddenly became quite cold.

Lou Xiao'e frowned and said, "Hey Yu Li, why is your family's solution like this? Isn't this too tasteless?"

Qin Jingru nodded and said, "We country folks all know that we can't visit other people's houses during mealtimes. He stood there stupidly even though the host didn't invite him in. He doesn't know any rules at all."

Yu Li smiled bitterly and shook her head:

"What's the point of talking about this now? I can only blame myself for being short-sighted. I heard from the matchmaker that his father was a teacher and a big shot in the yard, so I married into the Yan family without much consideration."

"It was only after I got married that I realized how stingy the Yan family is."

Let’s talk about the betrothal gift, for example. When my father married me, he asked the Yan family for ten yuan, and the Yan family agreed without hesitation.”

"At the time, I thought the Yan family was quite generous, but later I found out that the money was his own and he had to pay his father back twelve yuan."

Lou Xiao'e was dumbfounded after hearing this, this... is there such an operation?

Her parents were afraid that she wouldn't eat well, so they would stuff themselves with large bags of food every time they went back home. However, the Yan family had to pay if she wanted to eat more, which was simply unimaginable to Lou Xiao'e.

Are there any parents like this?

Since Lou Xiao'e couldn't figure it out, she simply stopped thinking about it. It was none of her business anyway.

So he picked up a piece of fish and put it in Yu Li's bowl:

"Come on, forget about those troubles, eat some fish first and try Lao Wang's cooking skills."

Yu Li nodded dejectedly and then picked up the fish in the bowl.

After taking just one bite, Yu Li's eyes narrowed and she gave a thumbs up, praising it endlessly:

“It’s fresh and spicy, the fish is tender, delicious, very tasty!”

After saying this, Yu Li felt very embarrassed. Cooking was supposed to be her job, but she didn't expect that Wang Hongtao would do it.

Fortunately, Wang Hongtao only made a chopped pepper fish head. The rest of the dishes, stir-fried cabbage with meat, spicy and sour potato shreds, pan-fried old tofu, and tomato egg drop soup were all made by Yu Li, otherwise she would not have the face to sit down and eat.

"Okay, now that the annoying people are gone, everyone hurry up and eat. Don't be polite, and you'd better finish it all."

Wang Hongtao greeted.

A few people ate and chatted, and when they were excited, they raised their Arctic Ocean bottles and clinked them against each other, and the atmosphere slowly became good.

After the meal, they drank and chatted with each other, and became much more familiar with each other.

Especially the girls, they called each other sisters in a very intimate way.

Wang Hongbin was the first to finish his meal and go home, followed by Jingru.

All of a sudden, Lou Xiao'e and Yu Li were the only ones left at home.

"Come on, sister-in-law, eat more..."

Wang Hongtao continued to put food into Lou Xiaoe's bowl, his eyes narrow and malicious.

"That's enough, that's enough. If you eat any more, your stomach will be full!"

Lou Xiao'e glanced at Wang Hongtao reproachfully.

Yu Li noticed something was wrong and stood up to clean up the dishes: "Well, you guys sit here and eat slowly. I'll wash the empty plates and the dishes used by Jingru and the others first."

"Well... I'm full too. Yu Li, you can wash them all."

"I...I'm going back first."

After saying that, Lou Xiao'e also fled in panic, and glared at Wang Hongtao fiercely before leaving.

However, this level of attack obviously did not cause any harm to Wang Hongtao. He stretched out his legs, lay down on the reclining chair, and dozed off.

"Shall I put the rest of the food on a plate for you?"

Yu Li saw that there were still a lot of food left and asked.

Wang Hongtao closed his eyes and nodded: "Keep the meat and vegetables, and you can take some of the broth back."

"Really?" Yu Li was touched.

She knew the character of the Yan family. If she returned empty-handed, even if they would not blame her in person, they would certainly make sarcastic remarks to her.

Moved, Yu Li came over, took Wang Hongtao's hand and said, "Hongtao, you don't have to worry about me like this. They won't say anything to me even if I go back empty-handed."

Wang Hongtao grabbed Yu Li's hand and patted it: "Come on, who was crying loudly at the gate just now?

You are still too soft-hearted. The Yan family treats you like this because they are sure you dare not speak out. "

"Sometimes you should be bolder. Doesn't Yan Bugui call himself a cultured person? People like him care about face the most. If this gets out, do you think Yan Bugui will be scared?"

Yu Li listened thoughtfully and then nodded firmly.

Then she took the apron off the hook and tied it on herself skillfully.

Standing up and seeing that Yu Li's hair was stuck inside, Wang Hongtao stepped forward and helped her smooth her hair out.

The action was natural, as if it was something that should be done.

Then he turned around, poured half of the soup, mixed it with the leftover rice, and poured it into Ah Huang's uneven dog bowl.

"Eat quickly, you know what to do after eating!"

"Wang!"

Ah Huang responded excitedly and then buried his head in eating.

……

In the inner room, Yu Li was washing dishes seriously, and Wang Hongtao quietly hugged her from behind.

He could feel the stiffness and slight trembling of Yu Li's body, and gently turned her over.

Yu Li lowered her head and crossed her hands in front of her body, as if she didn't know where to put them.

She could feel Wang Hongtao's heavy breathing and his undisguised burning gaze.

What does he want to do?

The next moment, a hand gently stroked her face, then slowly and firmly lifted her chin.

He bent down and printed it.

“嘤咛…”

I don’t know how long it was, but when Wang Hongtao let go of Yu Li, she was already leaning in his arms, limp as mud.

When Deng Li gradually recovered a little, Wang Hongtao hugged her tightly again.

This time he didn't do anything bad, but gently stroked her long hair with full tenderness.

The tenderness at this moment finally made Yu Li completely fall.

Yu Li, who had completely recovered, raised her head embarrassedly: "Well, I'm sorry, it will take another two or three days..."

Wang Hongtao was so angry. It should have been a natural thing, but the timing was not right.

But on the surface, he didn't care at all. He scratched Yu Li's nose and said, "You said it yourself. When the time comes, you will..."

"Ok!"

……

At the Yan family, everyone was ecstatic when they saw the soup that Yu Li brought back.

Yan Bugui: "Don't worry, wait for me to divide it!"

"Scoop out the excess oil and put it in a bowl to save for cooking later."

"Eat half of the remaining soup tonight, and the remaining half tomorrow night."

"This spoonful is mine, this spoonful is Ruihua's, and this is yours, Boss..."

"Yu Li has already eaten tonight so there is no need to share.

Do you have any objections to this division?"

Yan Jiecheng was not convinced: "I have to give you another spoonful. Yu Li has eaten it but you can leave her portion for me. Dad, you have to give me another spoonful!"

……

That night, there was a puffing sound in Xu Damao's house for a long time...but no one knew the details.

Knowing that Xu Damao would not be back tonight, Wang Hongtao slept until almost dawn and when he got up, Lou Xiao'e was also woken up by him.

So Lou Xiao'e rubbed her eyes and propped herself up in a daze.

Wang Hongtao only took a glance and quickly reminded: "Hurry up and lie back down, or pull up the quilt."

Lou Xiao'e, who was in a daze, subconsciously pulled the quilt up and said with disdain, "You were acting like a wolf last night and you're pretending to be serious now, bah!"

Wang Hongtao could only helplessly explain: "The inspections have been strict recently, so you have to be more restrained. If you continue like this, I will put you in the small dark room again."

Lou Xiao'e nodded with lingering fear: "That's right, it's better to stay calm and don't act recklessly."

"Don't cover yourself anymore. Go back to bed and continue resting." Wang Hongtao was still a little worried when he saw that Lou Xiao'e was only covering the front of her body with her smooth shoulders still exposed, so he simply pushed her back into the bed.

Lou Xiao'e huddled in bed and said speechlessly, "Is it that serious?"

"It's always better to be careful..."
