Chapter 163 I’m back!
In the evening, Jian Yue and Jiang Zeyuan sat at the table, eating simple meals, which they found particularly delicious.
"This year's New Year will definitely be a joyful one." Jiang Zeyuan picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it into Jian Yue's bowl.
Jian Yue nodded, "Yes, it's worth it!"
In the following days, the couple continued to make careful preparations for the New Year, looking forward to its arrival.
On the night of the Little New Year, the cold wind blew through the streets.
But Ye Qingqing's return brought a breath of warmth to this cold night.
She took light steps, her figure swaying, and the bags in her hands swayed slightly with her movements.
Before I even entered the door, that crisp and somewhat anxious voice floated in, "Xiao Yue, I'm back!"
When Jian Yue heard the voice, a smile instantly broke out on her face and she quickly walked out to greet him.
As soon as Ye Qingqing walked in, she put the package in her hand on the table.
Panting slightly, he fanned himself with his hands and said, "I am so tired. I have been rushing all the way."
Jian Yue took the packages from her with a smile, "Come in and take a rest. You are so impetuous."
The two of them sorted out the things together. Ye Qingqing finally breathed a sigh of relief and straightened her messy hair. "I went to many places to collect these special cakes from supply and marketing cooperatives in various places."
After a while, a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner was served.
The salt and pepper mantis shrimp exuded an enticing aroma, and Ye Qingqing couldn't wait to reach out her hand.
But he paused in mid-air and picked up one elegantly with chopsticks.
He peeled the shrimp shell gently with careful movements, then put the shrimp meat into his mouth and squinted his eyes in satisfaction.
When the steamed grouper was served, Ye leaned forward slightly, sniffed the fresh fragrance of the fish, raised the corners of his mouth, and praised: "I can tell that this fish is top quality just by smelling it."
As he spoke, he carefully picked up a piece of fish and chewed it slowly.
As soon as the braised pork was served, Ye Qingqing's eyes lit up at the bright red color.
He picked up a piece and examined it carefully before putting it in his mouth. He nodded as he ate, "This meat is really well-cooked, fatty but not greasy."
The fish ball and mushroom soup was steaming hot.
Ye picked up the soup spoon gently, blew on it, and tasted it in small sips. "This soup is really delicious."
Jiang Zeyuan looked at the interaction between the two with a resentful look on his face, feeling a little annoyed.
(?﹏?)(?﹏?)
My wife has been taken over!
Everyone sat together and enjoyed the meal.
Ye Qingqing put down his chopsticks, pursed his lips, and took Jian Yue's hand.
With a slightly worried look on his face, he said, "Jian Yue, you don't know that Zhao Qing has been giving me a lot of trouble in the past two months."
Jian Yue stopped chewing, looked at her with concern and asked, "What's going on?"
Ye frowned gently and said, "She always picks on me at work... I don't know how many tricks she has done behind my back to try to squeeze me out."
Jian Yue patted Ye Qingqing's hand and comforted her, "Don't be angry with such a person, it's not worth it. What happened next?"
Ye Qingqing drank a mouthful of soup and calmed down. "Fortunately, I was more careful and discovered her conspiracy in time. The leader was fair and did not listen to her one-sided story."
"That's good, but you have to be careful, she might not let it go."
Ye Qing snorted softly, "I'm not afraid of her. At worst, I can just fight back against the enemy and cover the water with earth."
Jiang Zeyuan, the ignored eater, had no choice but to eat in silence.
His eyes always glanced at Ye Qingqing with dissatisfaction.
After finishing the meal, Ye Qingqing leaned back in her chair contentedly and rubbed her stomach gently with her hands, "I'm too full, but the food you cooked is still delicious."
"That's right, don't you see what my level is!" Jian Yue accepted the compliment without any modesty.
Before Ye Qingqing left, Jian Yue stuffed the pastries that she had prepared into an oil paper bag and filled it up.
There are crispy and delicious fried dough sticks, crispy and sweet glutinous rice strips, and soft, glutinous and sweet red date cakes.
Ye Qingqing took the paper bag and held it in her arms, "Xiao Yue, I am so lucky to have a best friend like you!"
"That's enough! Stop being so pretentious. It's getting dark. Go back quickly!" Jian Yue urged them to leave.
After seeing the big light bulb leave, Jiang Zeyuan directly hugged her in his arms.
"Wife, you didn't talk to me much tonight." Jiang Zeyuan complained secretly.
Jian Yue grabbed his arm, turned around, stood on tiptoe, and gave him a big kiss.
Then run away~
The two began to chase each other...
The next evening, Jian Yue carefully prepared some New Year gifts, intending to give them to Aunt Wu and Jiang Wenwen.
She walked briskly to Aunt Wu's house next door, and before she even entered the yard, she raised her voice and shouted happily, "Aunt Wu, I'm here to give you a New Year's gift!"
Aunt Wu was feeding chickens in the yard. When she heard the crisp sound, she quickly put down the chicken feeder in her hand.
She wiped her hands vigorously on her apron and came out to greet him with a smile on her face.
"Xiao Yue, you are so polite, kid!" Aunt Wu said with her eyes narrowed into slits while smiling.
Jian Yue handed the New Year gift to Aunt Wu and said with a smile, "Aunt, these are all things I made myself, please don't despise them."
Aunt Wu opened it curiously and saw that there were glutinous rice noodles and red date cakes inside.
The red date cake was made so delicately that the sweetness of the red dates seemed to overflow.
Aunt Wu was so moved that her eyes became moist. She took Jian Yue's hand, patted her gently and said, "Xiao Yue, you are such a thoughtful child. This red date cake looks delicious."
Jian Yue felt a little embarrassed by the compliment and a faint blush appeared on her face.
I chatted with Aunt Wu about family matters for a while and asked about Li Xiaomei's current pregnancy situation.
Only then did he get up and leave, and when he left, he did not forget to remind Aunt Wu to take care of her health.
Then, Jian Yue came to Jiang Wenwen's house.
Jiang Wenwen was digesting her food in the yard.
Hearing a knock on the door, he hurried to the door.
When he opened the door and saw Jian Yue, a bright smile immediately broke out on his face, and he greeted her warmly, "Xiao Yue, you're here, come in!"
Jian Yue walked into the house, handed the New Year gift to Jiang Wenwen, and said gently: "Sister Wenwen, I wish you a happy Chinese New Year!"
Jiang Wenwen accepted the New Year gift and said happily: "Thank you, Xiaoyue, and Happy Chinese New Year to you too!"
The two came to the yard, sat on small benches, and chatted happily while eating melon seeds.
"Sister Wenwen, you are pregnant. How are you feeling recently? Are you feeling any discomfort like morning sickness?"
Jiang Wenwen touched her not-so-obvious belly and said, "It's okay. I have some morning sickness occasionally, but it's not serious. I can handle it."
Jian Yue frowned slightly and said a little worriedly: "Then you have to take care of your body and don't get too tired. Tell me what you want to eat and I'll make it for you."
"It's so kind of you."
"By the way, you are pregnant now, you should eat more nutritious food. Red date cake is very good, it replenishes qi and nourishes blood."
As she spoke, Jian Yue also told Jiang Wenwen in detail the various benefits of red date cake.
The two chatted and laughed, and time passed by unknowingly.
When I came out of Jiang Wenwen's house, it was already dark.
