I became the male protagonist's wife who died young, and I became a hero by eating melons

The sun came out brightly the next day, but unfortunately someone got up late.

Ji Xiaoxi touched the other side of the bed, turned over again, and was somewhat reluctant to get up.

But An An had already pushed open the door and rushed in loudly.

"Mom, the sun is out today, let's get up and play!"

"Okay." Ji Xiaoxi yawned, sat up lazily, and asked, "Where's your dad?"

"Dad is going to training!" An An complained loudly, "Dad forced me to go jogging again this morning. I hate it."

"Your dad has really good physical strength." Ji Xiaoxi sighed. After a busy night last night, he was able to go for a morning run early in the morning.

There's really no comparison.

After breakfast, Ji Xiaoxi began to help Du's mother prepare things for the New Year, as their family had not yet put up the Spring Festival couplets.

An An held a basin of paste so that Ji Xiaoxi could smear it on the Spring Festival couplets.

Du's mother took a pair of big scissors and started cutting paper-cuts.

After Ji Xiaoxi finished pasting the Spring Festival couplets, he went over to learn and also took a pair of scissors to follow Du's mother to cut.

"You need to make a small cut here, otherwise it will look ugly." Du's mother smiled and said, "In the past, your father was responsible for writing the Spring Festival couplets at home, and I was responsible for cutting the window paper-cuts. At first, I couldn't cut them well.

But your father is smart, he looked at others for a few times and then came back to teach me."

"Mom, is dad very powerful in your heart?" Ji Xiaoxi asked.

"Yeah." Du's mother stopped what she was doing and looked forward, as if recalling something. "He is the smartest person I have ever met. He can learn anything quickly.

Jingchuan is the most like him, and he can learn it quickly as well."

As if she thought of something, Du's mother suddenly smiled, lowered her head and shook it, "I just can't cook. I can't learn it no matter what I do. I can't even cook noodles properly.

Jingchuan is better than his father in this respect, and now he can cook quite well."

"Brother Chuan has inherited your strengths, hahaha." Ji Xiaoxi said with a smile.

"Yes, he inherited all our strengths, his father should be relieved, but it's a pity that Jing He..."

"Mom, my sister-in-law told me last time that my brother went to see her once." Ji Xiaoxi said slowly, "She reflected well in prison. She shouldn't make mistakes again after she gets out."

"Well, I hope so."

"Oh, Mom, the New Year is coming soon. Let's talk about happy things. Tell me more about what you and Dad used to do during the New Year."

Du's mother smiled and said, "What else can I do? We didn't have any money before, but during the Chinese New Year, he would buy half a palm-sized piece of meat and let me make at least five dishes and a soup.

There was only a small amount of meat, and it was gone in just one bite from each person.

He was still thinking about five dishes and one soup.

I said I couldn't do it.

He happened to be the best at coming up with ideas, and he actually came up with a five-dish and one soup meal for me."

Ji Xiaoxi asked curiously: "Which five dishes?"

Mother Du put down the scissors and said with a smile: "The first dish is fried eggs with meat, 3 eggs, a few slices of meat, and the rest is all peppers.

The second dish is stir-fried jar vegetables with minced meat. It still contains a large amount of jar vegetables. Although the minced meat is very little, the jar vegetables with minced meat are really delicious with rice.

The third dish is pumpkin soup, which does not require meat.

The fourth dish is fried potatoes with meat. It still has a few slices of meat, but the potatoes with meat added look more appetizing visually.

The fifth dish is stir-fried cabbage.

The remaining soup was white radish and pork slice soup. The meat slices were so thin that they floated up, and only a few pieces were put in, and the rest was added with radish.

This is our Chinese New Year’s dinner. We try our best to make the food at home better, so that at least it looks like we have a meat-eating New Year.

It’s five dishes and one soup.

They were so happy that they even finished their soup.”

"Mom, why don't we make these dishes this year? They sound delicious to me." Ji Xiaoxi suggested, "But we should also add pork with preserved vegetables.

Let’s have a meat-filled year~”

"There are so many delicious dishes, why do you insist on eating these bland ones?" Du's mother said with a smile, "We are not without money now, so we don't have to suffer this hardship."

"We can eat meat every day now, let's eat something different during the New Year~" Ji Xiaoxi pulled Du's mother's hand and shook it coquettishly, "Okay."

"Okay, okay." Du's mother was amused. "As you say, all is up to you. Hurry up and cut the paper-cuts. We still have to clean up today."

"Okay~"

As the Chinese New Year approaches, Lu Jingchuan and his friends return home earlier and earlier.

The day before the New Year, the troops began their holiday.

Lu Jingchuan took An An to the army canteen, had a meal with his comrades, and then went home to prepare for the New Year.

The festive atmosphere of the Chinese New Year this year is even stronger than last year.

Because there is a new little baby in the family.

Xia Xia was wearing a little red dress and her lips were rosy as if she had put on lipstick. She looked like a doll in a New Year picture and was very pleasing to the eye.

During this period, Du's mother took good care of her.

The little kids have gained a lot of weight, their faces are round and chubby, and they smile whenever they see people.

When Lu Jingchuan was at home, he always held his baby daughter in his arms and even put her on his lap when reading.

Cross one leg over the other to form a small triangle.

This is Xia Xia’s little cradle.

She didn't cry or make a fuss, but just stared at her father quietly. The father and daughter sat there for the whole morning.

On New Year's Eve, Du's mother and Ji Xiaoxi prepared six dishes and a soup, including braised pork with preserved vegetables.

Lu Jingchuan was in charge of serving the dishes. The more he served, the more familiar he felt. It was not until all the dishes were served on the table that he confirmed the answer in his mind.

"Mom, what are you doing?"

"I asked my mom to make this." Ji Xiaoxi said, "I wanted to make this New Year's meal to commemorate my dad. This year, none of us are missing, and the whole family is reunited."

Lu Jingchuan knew what she meant. His eyes moistened. He suppressed all his emotions, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of fat and lean meat, and stopped in mid-air.

It was like we were having a conversation across the air.

"Dad always said during Chinese New Year that we would be able to eat a big bowl of meat next year, and now we can finally eat it."

He put the meat into his own bowl and whispered, "I'll just be him and eat with us."

"Yes, we've eaten." Du's mother followed up with a sentence, and then she said with a smile, "In the New Year, our family will definitely get better and better, and he will live better over there, too.

Come, come, come, eat some vegetables."

"Well, Mom, you eat too." Ji Xiaoxi picked up a piece of egg for Du's mother, "Today's dishes have a lot of meat, let's eat more."

"Great, great~" An An had pumpkin rice in his bowl. He ate several mouthfuls and secretly wanted to feed his sister with a small spoon.

Seeing this, Lu Jingchuan quickly reached out and took his spoon, "Sister can't eat yet, she may choke easily, you can feed her some pumpkin soup to try."

An An nodded his head, "Okay~"

The little sadness just now disappeared, and the family was happily eating New Year's Eve meals again. Someone was setting off fireworks outside, and An An poked his little head out of the window, looking like he wanted to go out and play.

"Eat first, and then go find your brother Qi Lin to play together." Ji Xiaoxi said.

"Okay~"

After dinner, An An couldn't wait to run to Qi Lin with her newly bought fireworks.

Originally, he wanted to take Xia Xia to play with fireworks, but Ji Xiaoxi stopped him and told him to play by himself.

He just went out obediently with the fireworks in his arms.
