Chapter 1339 You're in for a treat!
After dinner, the couple first coaxed their three children to sleep before returning to their own room.
Knowing that his wife had been working non-stop these past few days just to bring the children back to reunite with him, Huo Jingrui simply kissed and hugged her before coaxing her to take a nap.
He's hosting a dinner party tonight, and it's obvious that the women from those other families will be arriving early. If he keeps bothering his wife, she might miss her lunch break.
With something on her mind, Yunyi got up after Huo Jingrui left.
Before the others arrived, I greeted Aunt Zeng and Sister Su, hung baskets on both sides of my bicycle, and headed out the door.
He didn't specifically go to any village. He just rode his bike around for a long time, found a secluded spot, and took out a chicken, two fish weighing about three pounds each, two pounds of pork belly, and three pounds of ribs from his storage space. Seeing that there was still room, he took out three watermelons.
As for the vegetables, she didn't take them out. Her neighbor, Sister Lü, had planted them in her vegetable garden, and she would definitely pick them and take them over in the afternoon. It would be a bit inconsiderate for her to take vegetables back with her.
Seeing that there were still some places left, he picked a few more field gourds from the space and stuffed them in, then covered them with urea bags before riding his bike back.
When she arrived home, Aunt Lü and Xiao Yurou were already there.
Yun noticed that the two of them didn't have the child with them and asked, "Where's the child?"
Wan Ruhua smiled and said, "Xiao Wei is on summer vacation at home. As soon as he heard there would be something delicious to eat tonight, how could he not agree?"
Yunyi was a little worried: "Xiaowei is so young, can he handle it?"
Wan Ruhua smiled even more happily: "My husband is often away, so I've been really grateful to my son these past few months. I must say, he's been a great older brother, and I'm very relieved."
Come to think of it, this is a different era than the future.
She turned to look at Xiao Yurou: "Where is your little Weiguo? You can't have entrusted him to someone else, can you?"
Xiao Yurou waved her hand: "My company commander, Qie, just came back from a mission and is resting this afternoon, so our son will naturally be under his care."
As they were talking, the two of them had already helped unload the basket. Xiao Yurou stared at the basket on the ground: "What did you put in this? It's so heavy?"
Yun smiled and said, "You're in luck today, you're in for a treat."
She lifted the urea bag covering it, revealing its contents.
Xiao Yurou saw what was inside: "Oh, a watermelon! Where did it come from?"
We happened to run into some fellow villagers who were delivering watermelons to the purchasing station, so I intercepted three of them. We'll cut one up and eat it first, then we'll get to work.
Xiao Yurou naturally wouldn't stand on ceremony with Yun Yi: "My Yi Yi is always so thoughtful."
Wan Ruhua's face was full of smiles: "Alright, stop joking around, hurry up and help unload that basket from the cart."
This one turned out to be quite heavy as well.
Before Xiao Yurou could ask, Yunyi lifted the urea bag on top and said, "Let's have a good meal today, as a celebration for the children."
Xiao Yurou brought over the basket she had brought: "Here, this is what I brought. See how you want to use it."
Wan Ruhua also took out the things she had brought: "You're in for a treat, ta-da!"
Upon seeing the item, Xiao Yurou exclaimed in surprise, "Beef! Where did this come from?"
Wan Ruhua quickly patted her on the shoulder: "Keep your voice down."
Seeing that she had calmed down, he said, "The day before yesterday, my husband went out to run some errands and happened to come across a place where cattle were being slaughtered. When he asked, he found out that the village's cattle had an accident and could not be saved. It was a hot day, so they had no choice but to slaughter them. The people who were with him got permission and each of them bought a few pounds to bring back."
Xiao Yurou's eyes lit up: "Leave this to me. Stir-frying it always feels a bit dry. Let's braise it today. I'm sure it will seduce you all."
