The newly married reborn cold-faced boss dotes on his delicate wife
Chapter 149 The Final Say
With Anxi's help in making a fire, the two of them started preparing lunch.
The pile of bacon and sausages made last time are ready to be eaten. Jiang Tingxia took a piece of bacon and two sausages from the utility room, washed them and cut them into plates, then steamed the sausages and fried the bacon.
Today's staple food is sweet potatoes. There is a sack of sweet potatoes at home, and Jiang Tingxia is worried that they will go bad if we can't finish them.
In Chazipo, every family is like this. The supply truck comes once every month, so every household has the habit of storing things. Li Changpu prepared not only a large sack of sweet potatoes in the utility room, but also a sack of potatoes, radishes and cabbages.
Not only was there too much, but it was also not tasty. Jiang Tingxia only discovered when she got here that not all sweet potatoes are sweet and soft. These sweet potatoes have a lot of tendons and a bland taste, and the texture is hard to describe. She thought about it, peeled the sweet potatoes, cut them into small pieces, and mixed them with rice porridge. When the porridge was cooked, the sweet potatoes were broken into small pieces and melted into the porridge, leaving only a sweet taste.
She thought proudly that she was indeed smart and had come up with such a good idea to turn a bad thing into a good one.
After the porridge was cooked and the sausages were steamed, Jiang Tingxia fried the bacon with green onions, and stir-fried some cabbage with lard, and then started eating.
Li Changpu just walked in and saw the sweet potato porridge in the pot. He frowned and asked, "Why are you eating this?"
He asked, "Is there not enough rice at home?"
Mix fine grains with coarse grains and eat this sweet potato porridge, which is a way to save food.
Jiang Tingxia didn't know about this, and talked about her own clever idea, "The sweet potato doesn't taste good when steamed or roasted. I think it would taste better if I cook it into porridge."
If it were in the past, Li Changpu would not care too much about this matter. Sweet potato porridge was considered a good meal. However, he followed Jiang Tingxia to Wenhai and truly experienced what kind of life she had lived in the past. In comparison, it was too unfair for her to follow him.
Li Changpu helped serve the dishes. He came close to her and complained, "If it doesn't taste good, don't eat it. Leave it for me. You can just eat the rice."
Jiang Tingxia didn't know that he was thinking so much, so she followed his words and said, "I'll get tired of eating rice all the time. Can't I change my taste?"
Li Changpu looked at Jiang Tingxia's sensible face and felt a little uncomfortable. He said, "You don't have to be so frugal. I can't shortchange you on your rations no matter what. Just live your life the way you should. Don't put yourself in a difficult position."
Jiang Tingxia understood and said with a smile, "Do you think I eat this to save money?"
"What are you thinking? I'm so rich, why would I let myself down for a bite of food?"
Li Changpu then remembered that Jiang Tingxia was much richer than him and was a small wealthy woman.
However, she is his, and since she lives with him, he has to take good care of her.
After lunch, Li Changpu asked, "Do you want to eat rabbit?"
Jiang Tingxia suddenly thought of spicy rabbit meat, and her mouth was watering. "Is there any?"
Li Changpu smiled and said, "Yes, if you want to eat, there is."
"I'll go to the mountains to set up a trap, and I'll still be in time for dinner."
Jiang Tingxia recalled the last time she went into the mountains. Others said that the mountains were very dangerous. She said with some concern, "Forget it. There are wolves in the mountains. It's better not to go."
There are not only wolves, but also blind bears in the mountains. Otherwise, why are there so few people going into the mountains to hunt? However, Li Changpu is not afraid of this at all. With his physical fitness, it is a piece of cake for him to deal with these situations.
However, seeing Jiang Tingxia frowning, Li Changpu didn't say anything, but just wrapped the hemp rope around him and coaxed him, "You don't have to go into the back mountain to catch wild rabbits. You can catch them outside the mountain. There's no danger."
Jiang Tingxia was half-believing and half-doubting, but Li Changpu really came back very quickly. Without even taking a breath, he said confidently, "Wait for the rabbit tonight."
……
Li Changpu walked to the cabinet and took out two files. As soon as he opened them, Staff Officer Yu came over. He had two big dark circles under his eyes and said faintly, "Changpu, you have caused me so much trouble."
Li Changpu was confused and looked at him, "Brother Yu, what are you talking about?"
Yu Maoshi continued, "You said that you have become a traitor to us gay men."
Li Changpu, who was originally leaning against the table, stood up straight and asked, "What do you mean?"
Yu Maoshi said, "My wife kept talking about you in my ear last night. My ears are sore from hearing you. She always compares you to me. In the end, she made me look like nothing."
Li Changpu looked confused. What did their affairs have to do with him?
Yu Maoshi complained, "It's because you went to fetch water yesterday and your sister-in-law saw you, so she came back to complain to me."
Just because he had nothing to do and went to fetch water, his wife praised Li Changpu as the best man in the world and scolded him as a bastard.
Li Changpu was also speechless, and put the information in his hand aside. "Old Yu, you came to me just for this. Your sister-in-law complained to you, why don't you go and fetch water? Instead of complaining to me, you can fill up the water tank at home."
Yu Maoshi twisted his neck and said disapprovingly, "It's women who carry water anyway. It's you who didn't follow the rules. My wife saw it and felt unbalanced. In the end, it destroyed our relationship. I'm going to hold you responsible."
Li Changpu was not a good-tempered person at all. After listening to Yu Maoshi's nagging, he began to speak with sarcasm, "Old Yu, you are nothing either. Your sister-in-law is pregnant and you still ask her to carry water."
A group of young guys who were working in the office nearby heard this and burst into laughter.
Yu Maoshi rolled his eyes at them and said, "What do you know, a bunch of idiots?"
"As the old saying goes, men work outside and women work inside. This rule cannot be broken. After a day's work, who has the energy to move around when they get home?"
He patiently persuaded Li Changpu, "You are newly married and don't know anything. I will teach you that women cannot be spoiled. You must discipline them, otherwise they will become a nuisance sooner or later. Listen to my advice. When you return home, be manly and tell her to fetch water for me or to cook for me."
"No matter how bad-tempered and unruly your wife is, she still dares to order you around."
Li Changpu gritted his teeth and said, "You also said that I am a daughter-in-law, not a nanny."
Yu Maoshi looked incredulous, "You are busy at home and outside every day, I don't believe you are not tired."
He said sincerely, "Brother, why don't you go home and rest?"
Li Changpu shook his head. "I'm not tired. At my age, I have a lot of energy. I have more energy than I can use up."
As he spoke, he patted Yu Maoshi on the shoulder and said, "As a soldier, you still have to keep up with your physical fitness. Old Yu, if you can't do it, I will increase your training in the future."
Yu Maoshi took two steps back and shouted, "I'm in good health. I mean, men like us must be tough in front of our wives. Look at my wife. She doesn't dare to go west when I tell her to go east. She doesn't dare to chase chickens when I tell her to beat dogs."
After saying that, he looked at Li Changpu with a smug look on his face, "Is your wife okay?"
Everyone knows that Li Changpu's wife is difficult to deal with.
Li Changpu looked Yu Maoshi up and down, with an expression of disbelief on his face, "You just said that your sister-in-law kept nagging you yesterday and your ears were covered with calluses. If she really said that, why didn't you punish your wife? You endured it until today, and finally you took out your anger on me."
He pushed Yu Maoshi away and smiled, "You're tough, I think you're only tough on the surface."
Yu Maoshi suddenly felt a lump in his chest and was unable to speak.
Then Li Changpu said, "But I am different from you. I definitely have the final say at home."
He pointed to the watch on his wrist, "It's time. I'm off work."
Yu Maoshi rolled his eyes as he watched Li Changpu walk away. "He's bragging. He still has the final say at home. I'm afraid he really has the final say. Everyone knows that his wife is like a landlord's wife. She treats him like a farmhand and she's pretending to be nice."
"Humph, this Li Changpu is sharp-tongued. Just wait and see. He doesn't listen to the old man and suffers the consequences. He doesn't know how to enjoy his blessings. He was born to serve others. Sooner or later, he will regret it."
Zhang Ming listened to these words with a thoughtful look on his face.
