Chapter 19: Looking at each other with admiration

Zhuang Wan thought Bai Qilang's home was really not far ahead, but the three of them entered the alley and almost made her dizzy. If it weren't for thinking about the roast chicken that was about to be served, or chicken soup along the way,

She really wants to go home.

"That's it!" Bai Qilang pushed open the dilapidated wooden door and welcomed the two into the room, while he grabbed the chicken to the backyard.

Zhuang Wan thought she must have gone to kill the chicken, but she didn't hear the chicken crowing for a while. Instead, she saw Bai Qilang come back and grab a handful of millet to feed the chickens...

Bai Qilang, who came back from feeding the chickens, explained: "My mother is in poor health, so I bought a hen that lays eggs. The eggs she lays every day can replenish her body."

Zhuang Wan nodded with a dry smile: "It should be!"

Anyway, the chicken can't be eaten.

"You guys sit!" Bai Qilang brought the chair over.

Zhuang Wan looked around and saw that there were no valuable decorations in the house. It seemed that the Bai family was not rich, and even said they were a little poor.

"Qiro, who is here?" A weak voice came from inside.

"Mom, are you awake?" Bai Qilang hurriedly walked in and soon supported an old woman with gray hair.

The old woman's eyes were turbid, and she looked at Zhuang Wan with difficulty and asked, "Where are these guests coming from?"

"Mom, these two are my friends in the military camp, one of whom is Zhuang and the other is Li!"

Zhuang Wan hurriedly greeted: "Hello, aunt!"

Yan Cheng nodded.

"So they are two people! The old woman's eyes are dizzy and she thought there were several. Don't stand, sit down."

The two people who were already sitting: "..."

"Auntie, you don't have to worry about us." Zhuang Wan said.

"The child Qilang is a little different..." Aunt Bai patted Bai Qilang, "I hope you don't want to laugh at him."

"No, no," Zhuang Wan said quickly, "We all like him very much."

Aunt Bai smiled with relief and said, "That's good... cough... cough..."

Bai Qilang: "Mom, you haven't recovered from your illness yet, so you'd better go into the house to rest! I'll go cook."

Aunt Bai nodded: "Okay!" She looked at Zhuang Wan: "The two guests should also stay for a meal!"

"Then I'll bother you!" Zhuang Wan said.

Bai Qilang gently closed the inner door and turned around and said to the two of them, "My mother can't see clearly, don't be surprised."

"Of course not." Zhuang Wan thought that Aunt Bai should have suffered from white miasma, so she couldn't see things clearly and had a double shadow.

"Have you been to see a doctor?"

Bai Qilang said: "I have read it. The doctor prescribed some medicines for clearing the mind and improving the eyesight, but it didn't work after taking it."

While he was talking, the sound of something breaking suddenly came from outside, "You rebel, can you be angry to death!"

Bai Qilang said: "Chen Wujin has arguing with his father again."

Zhuang Wan remembers that Chen Wujin and Bai Qilang were neighbors, and she asked, "Why are you quarreling?"

"Dad Chen made a marriage for Wujin, but Wujin refused."

"This is a good thing! Why don't you?"

Bai Qilang sighed: "He is afraid that he will die in the battlefield in the future, so wouldn't he harm other girls?"

"That's true! It's really not suitable for a girl to be a widow at a young age." Zhuang Wan saw Yan Cheng sitting for a long time without saying anything, so she asked him: "You said yes!"

"..." Yan Cheng always felt something in her words, so he said, "It's not like going to the battlefield that I'm not going back."

"Oh... life and death are fate!" Bai Qilang said: "My father Chen is forcing him to get married now, just to leave incense for the Chen family before he goes to the battlefield."

As he said that, he walked over to open the window, and the quarrels became clearer.

When Chen Wujin saw Bai Qilang open the window, he knew that he was here to help him, and said, "Dad, Qilang has something to do with me, let's talk about this matter later."

After saying that, I'm going to go out.

"Stop!" Dad Chen called him, "You just go empty-handed?"

When Chen Wujin walked in, he was carrying a piece of fat and thin pork belly in his hand.

Seeing Zhuang Wan and Yan Cheng are here, I am overjoyed: "Brother Zhuang, Brother Daniu, you are here too!"

He handed the meat to Shirakiro, "Hurry up, go and make some delicious treats them!"

"Okay! I'll make a braised pork!" Bai Qilang took the meat and went to the kitchen. He was worried that there was no good food to entertain.

Chen Wujin turned around and said to Zhuang Wan: "You can wait, the braised pork made by Qilang is so delicious!"

Zhuang Wan looked at a stack of silk squids on the table and picked up a pair of "Magpie Announcement" to see that the embroidery work was fine and the feathers on the birds were clearly visible.

"He knows quite a lot."

"Not!" Chen Wujin said: "The silk palette embroidered by Qilang is better than the best embroiderer in Qianzhou. His embroidery pieces are stolen every time they take them out. After his father died two years ago,

He relied on the money from selling embroidery to treat my mother to make a living."

"Don't he have a few older brothers?"

"His brothers..." Chen Wujin cursed: "It's all a group of ungrateful wolves. After setting up their own family, their mother doesn't care."

"Then he is going to join the army, who will take care of Aunt Bai?"

"My mother comes to take care of the embroidery items on weekdays. My mother helps to sell them."

"Then he is really not easy." Zhuang Wan could see that the two families got along well, and the Chen family was relatively wealthy, so she should always help the mother and son.

The aroma of meat wafted out of the kitchen, and soon three dishes and one soup were served on the table, especially the braised pork, which was tempting in color, sweet and soft, and melted in the mouth.

In order to maintain his figure, Zhuang Wan usually doesn’t eat any fat, and I don’t know if it’s because she hasn’t been exposed to meat for a long time, she still can’t stop eating several pieces.

"It's so delicious! Xiaobai, you are not inferior to those chefs in the restaurants!"

noob?

Yan Cheng frowned.

"Qilang, why don't you go to Huotou Camp? We will have all the best!" Chen Wujin quipped.

"That's it!" Zhuang Wan agreed, and as she spoke, she grabbed another piece of braised pork.

"Just like it!" Bai Qilang said embarrassedly. He has suffered a lot of criticism for his behavior since he was a child, and only Chen Wujin is a friend. Now, when he heard Zhuang Wan praise him, he is naturally happy and can't help but give it to her.

Add soup cloth dishes...

When he came out of Bai Qilang's house, Zhuang Wan couldn't stand up straight.

"I haven't eaten so much for a long time." She said to Yan Cheng who was walking in front: "Why did you get off the table without taking a few bites?"

"No appetite!" Yan Cheng said lightly.

"I really underestimated this Bai Qilang before. I didn't expect that he not only knows how to embroider, but also makes good dishes and is filial. It really makes me admire him."

Yan Cheng didn't say anything, his expression was obviously unhappy, and his fingers curled up into his fist...

"Don't walk so fast." Zhuang Wan was too full and had difficulty walking, so she couldn't catch up with Yan Cheng's pace.

Yan Cheng stopped and waited for her.

"Help me!" Zhuang Wan reached out and grabbed his arm. Yan Cheng's clenched hand slowly opened and raised it to support her shoulder.

"If you can't walk, I can carry you!"

"Don't! I'll vomit in a while!"

"Then I'll take you back?"

"Do you think this is appropriate?"

Yan Cheng: “…”

"Just walk around like this to eliminate food!"

"good!"

Smelling the faint fragrance between Zhuang Wan's hair, Yan Cheng's originally depressed mood gradually faded.

He believed that he would always be her closest person, and no one could replace her.

He will never allow it!
