After Cheng Tianyuan returned home, he found that Xiaoxin had returned and Xiao Chong was painting in the room.
"Today is the weekend. Are your eldest and second brothers back?"
Xiaoxin shook her head and muttered: "The elder brother said he would come back tomorrow morning and said he had to organize school activities, so he would be busy tonight.
The second brother said that there will be a test tomorrow morning and we have to practice tonight.
He said that if his grades were good, he would rush home for lunch.
If the results are not good, I have to train in the afternoon and I won’t be back this weekend.”
Cheng Tianyuan nodded, washed his hands and went to the backyard.
The kitchen was in full swing, and the two cooks were busy coming and going.
As soon as Cheng Tianyuan walked in, Xiao Chen immediately flipped up his hair and approached with a warm smile: "Mr. Cheng, are you off work?
It seems a bit early today!"
"Um."
He nodded lightly and said: "Since the eldest and second eldest are not coming back to eat tonight, we will reduce the number of dishes by two."
Xiao Li just happened to answer - Xiao Chen took the lead and asked with a smile: "Which two should be subtracted?
Sir, look! Tonight there are mandarin fish, sweet and sour pork ribs, pork belly and chicken soup, fish fillet soup, and several vegetarian dishes."
Cheng Tianyuan thought for a while and said quietly: "My wife doesn't like fishy food, so I don't want the fish fillet soup.
Let’s do everything else.
Uncle Lan has been here as a guest for the past two days, so the dishes must be replenished appropriately.
By the way, some of you can cook Cantonese cuisine, right?
The porridge that was served was cooked well.”
Xiao Li smiled and whispered: "...I did it."
Cheng Tianyuan nodded and said warmly: "The old man likes to drink porridge. Make a small pot and serve it."
"good."
Xiao Li hurriedly said: "I will wash the rice immediately."
Xiao Chen smiled fondly and looked at Cheng Tianyuan's thin coat.
"Mr. Cheng, your coat looks great! Where did you buy it?
It looks so impressive!”
Cheng Tianyuan frowned slightly and turned around calmly: "I don't know.
My wife helps me buy all my clothes, you can ask her."
Xiao Chen looked at his straight and cold back as he left, and put away his smile.
"This Mr. Cheng...is not very moral."
Xiao Li buried his head in washing rice and whispered: "Mr. Cheng is a good gentleman."
Xiao Chen snorted softly and said: "You seem to know him very well! Do you know how rich he is?
Do you know how old he is?
Do you know everything?"
"……have no idea."
Xiao Li continued to be busy and said no more.
Xiao Chen pouted, feeling a little depressed.
Although Cheng Tianyuan is in his forties, he is neither fat nor bald. He looks to be in his thirties at most.
I heard that he is also in business. Most of the paper towels in major shopping malls, supermarkets and small grocery stores in the imperial capital are wholesaled from his warehouse.
Some people say that his annual income is several million, or even more.
However, he is very low-key and has no bad habits. He looks cold on the outside and hot on the inside. He is extremely kind to his family members, especially his wife. He is considerate and considerate. He even helps with spooning the soup and gently reminds her if it is too hot.
.
Such a man is mature, steady, handsome, has the heroic spirit of a man, but also has a considerate and gentle side - he is really attractive!
But no matter what she hinted, Cheng Tianyuan pretended not to hear it. Maybe he wasn't pretending, but he was just dull... That's impossible.
"Alas..." She couldn't help but sigh lowly.
Xiao Li on the side reminded: "The sweet and sour sauce is almost ready, be careful not to burn it."
Xiao Chen depressedly picked up the spoon and stirred slowly.
"Where are all the good men in the world? Why is it so difficult to find a man to marry!"
Xiao Li twitched the corner of his mouth and whispered: "Look hard and find the right one. It's not difficult."
"What does it mean to be appropriate?"
Xiao Chen hummed: "A young man wants a house but not a house, money but not money, a car but not a car, how can I marry him?"
When I was a child, my family was afraid of being poor, so I vowed a long time ago that I would never marry a poor man.
The older ones, the ones with better conditions have long been taken by others, and the ones with poor conditions are even less likely to be taken by me.
I'm waiting here and there, I'm almost thirty now, can I not be in a hurry?"
"When fate comes, it will become easy."
Xiao Li whispered: "There are some things that you can't just rush if you want to.
Don't be greedy for the good things in front of you, find someone who is the right age and treats you well, that is the real fit."
"If there is no immediate good, then how can I count on his future?"
Xiao Chen rolled his eyes: "I also want to find someone who treats me well, but the key is that there is none!"
Xiao Li sneered secretly and said, "You can figure it out yourself.
Some people are really not suitable for you."
"What on earth are you going to say?
!”
Xiao Chen got angry and loudly said: "Don't hide your lies behind your words. I am an upright person and I don't like people who are sour in their words."
Xiao Li washed his hands and chopped vegetables, pretending not to hear.
Xiao Chen poked the spoon back and forth hard and said bitterly: "When will this day end!"
"When the sauce is ready, set it aside."
Xiao Li reminded: "There is still half an hour left before dinner time. My wife explained that the weather is cold, so we should eat while serving dishes and try to have hot dishes."
You fry the marinated ribs and add the sauce later."
Xiao Chen threw the small pot over with a rough movement.
Xiao Li couldn't help but get angry: "You have to be careful! The sauce has been boiling for more than two hours! It spilled soon. Where are you going to find it?"
Xiao Chen squatted down to wash vegetables and said harshly: "Don't mess with me! I'm in a bad mood!"
Xiao Li rolled his eyes and asked, "When are you in a good mood?
You are depressed about this, depressed about that, angry about this, angry about that all day long - how can you live a normal day?
!”
"Hello!"
Xiao Chen angrily said, "That's enough! I'm already very angry. If you annoy me any more - be careful, I'll tear you apart!"
Xiao Li cut the kitchen knife loudly and said in a deep voice: "Do you think I'm afraid?"
Sister, you are a little younger than me. I am not taking advantage of you by calling you ‘sister’.
I am a married woman, and I was not young when I got married, so I understand your anxiety now.
But you can't do that as the saying goes - go to the doctor in case of emergency.
I haven't read much, so I don't know if it's correct or not, but that's the truth anyway.
Don't be in a hurry to find a lover now, just wandering around randomly, there will be no good results."
Xiao Chen had a sullen face and continued to wash the vegetables.
Xiao Li didn't pay attention to her cold face and continued: "There are still many good men in the world. As long as you look hard, you will always find them.
A young man may not have anything, but after you marry him, live a good life with him. When he makes money, you make money too, and your life will gradually get better.
If you can endure hardships with him, he will give you blessings in the future."
"What if not?"
Xiao Chen snorted coldly: "Do you still remember that sister-in-law Pang Pang who was in the same training class as us?
She worked hard with her husband for twenty years. After her husband made a lot of money, he immediately kicked her and married a twenty-year-old girl! The hardship can be endured, but it cannot be in vain! I can't
