Quick Transmute: Chasing Wife 101 Times

Chapter 6

Reheated rice and a bowl of steaming seafood soup were put on the table.

The soup is very clear, sprinkled with green onion, beautiful and refreshing, shrimps and clams float on the soup, plump and attractive, there are vegetables in it, which makes the soup base more flavorful, zucchini is sweet, soybean sprouts are crisp, pieces of white tofu After drinking fresh soup, the taste is better, and the mushrooms are also delicious, really fragrant.

"It's not good to eat at night. The taste is too strong. I only added salt and sesame oil for seasoning." Liu Man'er also sat down across from him and said.

"..." Liao Zeyuan stared silently at the tempting food in front of him for a long time before saying in a hoarse voice, "Thank you."

What was placed in front of him was clearly not leftovers, but recooked with ingredients, which was obviously not a simple matter of "heating it up"—although it did take her only a short time to make it.

"It's nothing." Liu Man'er smiled.

Her tone and posture are light and she really didn't take this matter to heart at all. To her, it's really just a trivial matter. Even if it's another person, she will still cook and let the other person eat as much as possible .

When it comes to eating, it's not her style to be perfunctory.

When I was a child, my family was not well off, and my uncle and aunt were also very fortunate for her and my younger brother. There was nothing extravagant to enjoy in their trivial and ordinary life. For a family like them, it took a lot of effort to maintain the status quo.

When she was a little older and could help the family cook, she would try her best to make every meal as beautiful and delicious as possible, even if she only used ordinary ingredients - because a good meal is really important. It makes people feel happy.

It is the most generous little blessing in ordinary life day after day.

Seeing that she seemed to be thinking of something, Liao Zeyuan suddenly bent his lips and smiled, and the smile filled his eyes, which were so charming and charming.

What was she thinking that made her laugh like this.

His heart beat a little faster.

Liao Zeyuan always wondered if she could hear his heartbeat in the quiet surroundings now, could she hear it?

"I'm going back to sleep first." She got up and gently pulled the chair away, "You should go to bed early after eating."

"...Mmm." Liao Zeyuan replied, his expression naturally showed no emotion, but his eyes chased her upstairs until her back disappeared.

The next morning, Mr. Liao was at the dining table when he found his eldest grandson reappearing out of nowhere, and he still hadn't recovered.

It hasn't been long since he came back last time, and today is not a festival.

Liu Man'er and Liao Zeyuan ate at the same table, they didn't mention what happened last night at all, and they didn't even have anything else to talk about.

It's just that Liao Zeyuan sneaked a few glances at her, hesitant to speak - but how could he talk to a girl, he didn't know what to say, so he could only keep silent in the end.

After breakfast, he still went out to work as usual. Mr. Liao couldn't figure it out. After driving for such a long time, you just need to sleep and have breakfast. What are you thinking? Is your brain rusted from work?

It may really be that a part of the body is not working properly.

Liao Zeyuan drove the car to the gate of the old house, sat in the car for a long time, tapped his knuckles rhythmically on the steering wheel, and turned his gaze out of the car window frequently, but he never saw anyone coming out of the gate.

After a while, he clicked his lower lip, stepped on the accelerator hard, turned his head, and went to work.

Liu Man'er had no idea what was going on outside.

After breakfast, she made another pot of sweet flower and fruit tea, and then she went back to her room to change out of her clothes, thinking about going out to buy something—last night her cousin Liu Yi made a video call with her again, and said aggrievedly that she missed her, When she came back to celebrate the New Year, Liu Man'er was also a little moved. She had been at Liao's house for a month, and seeing that New Year's Day was about to be celebrated, she planned to go back.

But there is no rush, she plans to pick a suitable time to say it, otherwise, seeing the current situation, Grandpa Liao and Grandma Liao may have to keep her for a while longer.

After seeing her family for a long time, Liu Man'er really thought about it.

Uncle and aunt's son, who is also her cousin, Liu Yi, is 16 years old this year. He has just entered high school and has the best relationship with her. He is also close to her younger brother. When she was going to college outside, he would call her every now and then. Video call.

Liu Man'er also loves this younger brother very much. My uncle and aunt have never studied, and they are usually busy getting up early and late to earn money, trying to make the two children eat well and dress well. They basically don't care about the younger son. My son is in charge, he is also very competitive, he studies hard, and he is also cheerful. Now his development is faltering, his height is close to 180, and he looks very healthy.

Children at this age are lively, eat a lot, consume a lot, and usually can't stop talking. Liu Man'er thought about buying some pastries and specialties to send back, so that the children can enjoy their mouth first, and comfort his missing sister. Next time I have a chance, I will bring him to the capital to have fun for a while.

Liu Man'er went shopping all morning, and came back at noon to have lunch with Grandpa Liao and Grandma Liao. After lunch, she got a big cardboard box to put all the things in, and wrote a note stating who the box was for so-and-so. Uncle's and aunt's, neighbor's Uncle Li's, asked Xiaoyi to share with classmates and friends... Oh, she also reminded parents not to let him eat too much sweet food in one sitting.

Grandpa Liao and Grandma Liao saw it and were jealous.

What a thoughtful little padded jacket, why doesn't it belong to my own family?No, this godfather must be recognized!
It seems that next time I have to meet Man'er's uncle and aunt...

At dinner time, Liao Yue came back to eat with them, and told Liu Man'er about it: "There is a banquet tomorrow night, my mother asked me to take you with me! For more formal ones, you have to wear an evening dress. I will take care of that later." , there are all acquaintances you have met before, we will be mainly responsible for eating, drinking and chatting, and it will be lively."

Liu Man'er listened and nodded carefully: "Well, what time will it be tomorrow?"

"It starts at 06:30, but we have to prepare hours in advance for makeup and hair, and we have to mention a spa in advance." Liao Yue's tone was excited, and she likes all kinds of parties and banquets the most.

Liu Man'er couldn't help laughing: "That day just passed by?"

Liao Yue snapped her fingers: "For the highlight moment at night, it is necessary—"

Liu Man'er smiled and didn't speak. She couldn't bear to ask her to toss about these things from time to time. This kind of social interaction was mentally exhausting for her. , more feeling empty and tired.

It's okay to do it a few times once in a while, she is also happy, it can be regarded as an eye-opener, and communicate with old and new friends.

Too much is not good.

In fact, the elders of the Liao family seldom take her to too complicated and formal banquets. This is the first time. Before, they were family banquets or tea parties in small circles, or small parties among young people. For Liu Maner Speaking of them, these seem much more relaxed, similar to going out occasionally on Saturdays and weekends, but the nature of formal banquets is different——

The Liao family is also familiar with her character now, she is sociable but still quiet, she is not keen on taking the initiative to get together and play with others, and the Liao family is unwilling to bring her into such a chaotic crowd too early out of a protective mentality. .

After all, Liu Man'er's current status in the Liao family is somewhat ambiguous. It is said that she is the granddaughter of the old man's former comrade-in-arms. She treats others favorably in order to repay her kindness, but she is not from a high family background. What gossip.
