After a flash marriage, I became the beautiful wife of a wealthy heir
Chapter 15: The first time to enjoy the fireworks
Wenxiu's mother turned her head to look at her daughter, then turned back to look at Haoxuan. Although she couldn't see the person clearly, she could roughly guess what he looked like.
Wen Xiu's mother took Haoxuan's hand and said, "Su Haoxuan, this is your first time home, so you should eat before you leave. There's a saying that goes, when a new son-in-law comes home for the first time, he should eat poached eggs. This indicates that the couple will have a happy and prosperous life in the future. Xiu, hurry up and cook for Haoxuan, don't dawdle."
It seems that Wenxiu's mother is going to entertain her son-in-law according to the old customs of her time.
"Mom, what era is it now? Who still cares about this like you did in the past?" Wenxiu hid a smile in her eyes, stole a glance at Haoxuan, and said to her mother with a pout.
Wenxiu said this, but actually she wanted Haoxuan to stay. Haoxuan also saw Wenxiu's shrewd mind.
"Silly child, the old saying is right, there are rules to follow, don't bother me, you're right to listen to your mother, look at the past, how many married people got divorced? I heard on the radio that many young people nowadays get divorced soon after getting married because of the slightest quarrel."
Wenxiu's mother talked about a lot of reasons, and what she thought was the reason was the reason.
"puff……"
Wenxiu covered her mouth and looked at Haoxuan and burst out laughing.
"Oh, Mom, you are superstitious again."
"My dear mother, I didn't realize that you know so much."
Wenxiu said this with a smile, then changed the subject and lightly teased her mother.
"Hey, don't laugh. Mom also heard about it on the radio. What's the big deal..."
Wenxiu's mother looked at her daughter, grumbled angrily, and then laughed.
"Well, I'll listen to mom. Haoxuan, don't leave yet. I'll show you my cooking skills today. I guarantee you'll be satisfied with the meal."
Wenxiu finally said that she wanted to keep Haoxuan.
"Well, it's better to be respectful than to obey."
Haoxuan grinned. He also wanted to see Wenxiu’s cooking skills, so he went down the slope.
"Mom, Haoxuan and I will go to the street to buy vegetables."
Wenxiu said this, took Haoxuan's hand and walked out.
Wenxiu's mother raised her hand and said quickly, "When buying vegetables and meat, ask Haoxuan more often and buy what he likes to eat."
Ah, the first time I met him, I felt sorry for my new son-in-law. Haoxuan's face turned red, and his heart felt as sweet as if he had eaten candied dates.
Wenxiu and Haoxuan left the community and walked towards the vegetable market.
Haoxuan's family has someone to do the chores and a chef to cook the meals. He has been used to a life of worry-free food and clothing since he was a child. This is the first time he has lived a life with others who are familiar with the world. He can't help but feel full of happiness and a little excited.
Fortunately, the vegetable market was not far away and the two of them arrived there in a short while.
The two of them wandered around the vegetable market for a long time. Wenxiu would look at several stores for every dish that Wenxiu and Haoxuan liked, comparing the quality of the dishes and the prices before she decided which one to buy from.
When paying for vegetables, she would bargain with the stall owners several times before buying them, saving as much as she could.
This was the first time Haoxuan experienced this situation. He didn't know how to bargain, so he had to follow Wenxiu awkwardly, carrying a bag of vegetables in his hand and acting as her porter.
Sometimes Haoxuan felt really bad and wanted to take out his cell phone to pay, but was always stopped by Wenxiu.
Wenxiu glanced at him and said with a smile, "I'm treating you today, I can't ask you to pay for it."
Haoxuan was impressed by Wenxiu's careful budgeting. She didn't spend a dime more. She was just like a typical little woman in the market - very capable.
But he doesn't care about these things when buying things. He just buys whatever he likes and never haggles over the price.
Wenxiu's family hadn't eaten fish for a long time, so she made an exception today and bought a sea bass.
Wenxiu was very happy and said with a smile: "We only eat fish during festivals. Mom has poor eyesight, and sea bass has few bones, so it tastes good when steamed. Today I will let you taste my cooking skills."
After buying the vegetables, Wenxiu and Haoxuan walked back to the community side by side, carrying several large bags full of meat, vegetables and fish.
Haoxuan only knows how to wash vegetables and can't help with anything else, so he just stands by and helps out at any time.
Haoxuan was very attentive. He helped to carry the plates and handed the seasoning packet to Wenxiu.
He watched Wenxiu skillfully cook eight dishes, plus a fish. The nine plates took up most of the not-so-spacious chopping board.
Haoxuan sniffed, the fragrance entered his nose, and he looked at the dish cooked by Wenxiu. It looked quite delicious, and he suddenly felt hungry.
When Wenxiu finished cooking, the rice in the rice cooker was cooked, so she cooked four poached eggs in another pot.
It was a hot day in July. Although the oscillating fan in the room was spinning furiously, Wenxiu was still busy with sweat. Haoxuan quickly took a towel from the wooden rack at the head of the bed and handed it to Wenxiu, saying:
"Houses like yours are hot in the summer. If you install an air conditioner, it will be cooler."
Su Haoxuan had never lived in this kind of house, and of course he couldn't live in it. He was just thinking about it and making a suggestion.
Wenxiu took the towel he handed her with a smile, wiped her sweat, pursed her lips, looked at the whirring floor fan, and said, "Look, we rely on this shaking fan to get through the summer. This is how we have been for so many years. It's just a little hot in the afternoon, and we can just put up with it in the morning and evening. It's not bad, right?"
As the two people were talking, they picked up the pile of food on the table and temporarily placed it on Wenxiu's empty bed and on the floor.
After wiping the table again, he carefully brought over the nine plates of delicious dishes on the chopping board and placed them on the dining table.
Wenxiu walked to the edge of the bed and helped her mother sit down at the table. She calmly got a small bowl for her mother and filled it with rice and vegetables.
It was Haoxuan's first time eating at Wenxiu's house, and he seemed very restrained. Wenxiu looked at him and smiled and said:
"Eat now. Bring out the same energy you had when you ate melons at the melon stand that night, and the courage you had to kick the car mirror. All the food on the table today is yours. Anyway, my mother can't see you eating."
Wenxiu made a few jokes, but she didn't expect that Haoxuan's face turned red.
"Xiu, stop joking, tell Haoxuan to start eating, and stop talking."
Wenxiu choked, looked at Haoxuan, and was stunned for a moment. Oh, it would be better to say less, as he seemed a little embarrassed.
She smiled and put some food into her mother's rice bowl, and then put some food into Haoxuan's bowl.
"Oh no, it's broken..."
At this moment, Wenxiu remembered the fried eggs on the stove, so she stood up, turned around and hurried over.
She turned off the fire and opened the lid of the pot. The eggs were a little over-fried, so she quickly divided the four poached eggs in the pot into two bowls, brought them back to the table, and handed one bowl to Haoxuan.
Wenxiu looked at Haoxuan and said, "Do you like the food I cook?"
Haoxuan wasn’t polite either. He had already gotten the certificate, so why was he still so reserved? Let’s eat!
He said honestly, "The food you cook is delicious, not too salty or too bland, just my taste, and very appetizing, unlike the food we usually eat outside, which is heavy and greasy."
Haoxuan spoke the truth in his heart. He was tired of the food at school, and what Wenxiu cooked today was really to his liking.
Wenxiu was overjoyed when she heard his words. She came over shyly and whispered, "That's good. Come if you want to eat."
"That's great. There are many days ahead. You can ask Xiu to cook for you every day."
Wenxiu's mother interrupted and rebuked her daughter.
"...Mom? Look at you, talking nonsense again!"
Wenxiu said this, glancing sideways at her mother, then at Haoxuan. The two looked at each other and smiled affectionately. All the good wishes were hidden in these silent smiles.
