Chapter 7 Going out to listen to gossip
When the family ate meat, they could count it on one hand, especially after her brother became disabled.
Her mother exchanged all the meat tickets at home with the neighbors for egg tickets to nourish her brother's health.
It's been a long time since there was a fragrance in the kitchen, not to mention the fragrance of eggs mixed with the sourness of tomatoes, which is so fragrant that it makes people salivate.
Gu Jiaojiao raised her eyes and saw the little girl from the Su family's eyes widening. She didn't know whether she was surprised or angry.
"Aren't eggs just for eating?"
"That's to supplement my brother's nutrition, we can't eat it." The little girl from the Su family said harshly while swallowing her saliva.
"I didn't say it was for you, I just made it for my parents and your brother."
"You...you...how can you be so vicious?" Su Qinchun stuttered in anger.
Gu Jiaojiao felt uncomfortable when she saw Su Qinchun protecting food like this. In this era where you need a ticket to go out, tickets to eat, and limited supply of sugar and oil.
She doesn’t know what to do in the future. It would be great if her space is there!
"Jiaojiao, you eat first, don't worry about Chunnizi. We still have eggs. Although it's a little difficult to eat meat, it's still okay to eat eggs."
Mother Su was afraid that her ignorant daughter would scare away her daughter-in-law, so she quickly made a promise.
"Mom, let's go eat noodles together." Gu Jiaojiao's eyes turned red instantly.
Being alone in this other world, I am lucky to have such a good mother-in-law.
Su's mother walked to the living room with the noodles in hand. The Su family did not have a separate dining room, so they all ate in the living room.
Su Shuoci also came out in a wheelchair, wearing a white shirt and green military pants.
Su's father helped him push his wheelchair to the dining table. The wheelchair at this time was not as flexible as later generations and could not turn at will.
"Ci Zaizi, this is the tomato and egg noodles cooked by your wife, please eat more."
"Yeah." Su Shuo responded noncommittally.
Looking at the steaming tomato and egg noodles in the bowl, Su Shuoci felt a little complicated.
Although he has been married for three days, he has never thought of getting along well with his wife.
Especially on the wedding day, his newly married wife publicly called him a cripple with mud legs and a toad who wanted to eat swan meat.
Does he want to eat swan meat?
He didn't want to marry a wife when his limbs were intact, let alone how could he want to marry a wife when he was paralyzed!
He was his immediate boss. Mr. Sheng personally talked to him and told him painfully that his adopted daughter had been frail and sick since she was a child and could not have children.
If you cause such trouble with him again, anyone you marry in the future will be looked down upon by others.
On the contrary, marrying him who is paraplegic is the best destination, according to the words of his immediate boss.
Only then did he realize that the two brothers from the Sheng family had plotted against him.
Su Shuoci refused even more righteously, saying that he was paralyzed and could not marry.
But his immediate superior told him emotionally and rationally.
As a man, you should be filial to your parents and marry a well-behaved wife so that your parents can feel at ease.
Su Shuoci was not a person who would compromise, but he had a secret deep in his heart, so he compromised easily.
Although he has lived in the compound for several years, he is not familiar with the people in the compound.
Mr. Sheng said that his adopted daughter was well-behaved and sensible, but she almost overturned the Su family on her wedding day.
The dirty words were even worse than those of the shrews he had seen in the countryside since he was a child.
Her behavior simply subverted his three views, but he still endured the disgust strongly.
He handed her the stone pendant that had given him infinite hope, but she actually threw it to the ground and said.
"Crippled clay leg, you want to use a broken stone to disgust this lady. Even if you take out your heart and give it to me, I will not be moved."
Then, she kept scolding her and fainted while cursing. Doctor Sun said that she was just so angry that she didn't want to wake up.
As long as you wake up, it won't be a serious problem, but you must take good care of it and not be irritated again.
For the past two days, he had been waiting for her to curse when she woke up.
It's impossible to get a divorce, even if we hate each other, since she is not a good person.
He just planned to drag her to death and torture each other to death.
But when she woke up, she changed, and now she was eating noodles in small bites.
It was as if she was eating some delicacies from the mountains and the sea. This was what Mr. Sheng called a well-behaved person, and he couldn't bear to drag her down anymore.
Should I file for divorce?
But……
"Cizaizi? Cizaizi? What's wrong? Isn't it delicious?" Mother Su shouted several times anxiously.
Seeing her son looking at the noodles in the bowl, Su's mother was afraid that her son would dislike Jiaojiao.
Such a good daughter-in-law can't be found even with a lantern.
Hearing his mother's cry, Su Shuoci came back to his senses and said, "Mom, it's okay, it's delicious."
"As long as it's delicious, Mom just saw your wife busy in the kitchen, and she specially made such delicious noodles for us to eat."
Su Shuoci didn't answer, but picked up a pair of chopsticks and put it into his mouth. His taste buds were instantly filled with delicious food.
Is she really the woman from three days ago?
Su Shuoci raised his eyes again and glanced at the little woman opposite who was eating noodles seriously.
It was as if what she was eating was not ordinary noodles, but some kind of delicacy.
Gu Jiaojiao ignored what was going on outside the window and only focused on struggling with the noodles in the bowl.
Even Su Qinchun was conquered by the bowl of noodles made by Gu Jiaojiao and ate it hard. It was so delicious.
"Chunnizi, after dinner, take your sister-in-law to see if there is anything you need to buy."
"Well, Gu, sister-in-law, do you want to go out for a walk?" Su Qinchun wanted to go out for a walk.
She has been doing hygiene at home these two days. Another thing is that Gu Jiaojiao is dressed very beautifully today, so she should go out and show it to those long-tongued women.
"Then let's go and have a look." Seeing that Su Qinchun's attitude had improved, Gu Jiaojiao was willing to give her a chance to show off.
The sisters and sister-in-law had just walked out of the yard when they heard a group of old and young women gossiping. The owner of the gossip refused to shut up.
"Su Shuoci is such a good person. If he hadn't been injured and paralyzed, how could he have been tricked by the sick Xishi?"
"Really or not? Is it really designed by Gu Jiaojiao? That Captain Su is so pitiful."
"Who says it's not the case? Marrying a fake daughter is already unlucky, but Gu Jiaojiao made a scene at the wedding and even fainted from anger."
"I think the Su family is just too kind. Women like this just deserve to be beaten. After a few beatings, they will be honest."
"Yes, yes, yes, if you hit your wife and rub her face, you should hit her hard."
"How could Gu Jiaojiao, that consumptive devil, withstand Su Shuoci's slap?"
"Did Gu Jiaojiao be beaten unconscious by Su Shuoci?" a woman asked, covering her mouth.
"Who knows? It is said that I was not fainted before entering the bridal chamber, and I fell unconscious after that."
"Are you telling the truth? How do you know so clearly?"
"I live next door to their house, and I can see clearly from the second floor..."
