“That’s it. Go ahead and try.”
“It’s delicious.” He praised sincerely, “Qingyue, the dishes you make really have a perfect balance of color, aroma, and flavor.”
“Of course it’s delicious.” She wasn’t embarrassed by the compliment and casually said, “There aren’t many seasonings at home. Later when I’ve made some money, I’ll buy a lot of seasonings, and the dishes I make will be even more delicious.”
A shadow of sadness flitted across his face. His wife talked about her earning money, but he, a big man, could no longer make money, which made him feel very frustrated.
Su Qingyue realized that she had said the wrong thing just now, “I didn’t mean it. Qinghe, I absolutely didn’t mean to belittle you.”
He smiled, “Don’t worry about it. I understand what you mean.”
“That’s good.” She carefully stared at his handsome face, seeing that although he was disappointed, he didn’t have any extra thoughts. That was good, otherwise, the decision she had made in the room earlier would have to be overturned.
Suddenly, his eyes widened, “Qingyue, you said you’ll buy seasonings later … are you not leaving? She gave an ambiguous answer, “What do you think?”
“I don’t know…”
“You’ll find out. Hurry up and eat.”
He picked up a chopstick-full of fried fries, wanting to put it into her bowl, but fearing she’d reject it, so he silently put it into his own bowl instead, “Qingyue, you should eat too. At this time, second brother and third brother haven’t come back yet, so they won’t be able to have dinner.”
“Yeah.” She also started eating dinner. She didn’t deliberately save any food, besides, there was a lot of food in the bowls, so she and Xiao Qinghe couldn’t finish it all anyway.
Xiao Qinghe secretly glanced at his wife’s movements while she was eating, feeling that she had a unique charm, which made her every move graceful and elegant. As he kept watching her, he forgot to eat his own meal.
She scolded in a low voice, “What are you looking at? Haven’t you seen a deaf person before?”
“No…” Caught in the act, his face turned red uncontrollably, thinking that he shouldn’t have said that, he quickly added, “Yes… I mean, no… yes…” She glared at him, “So is it yes or no?”
“I…” He took a deep breath, “Qingyue, in my eyes, even though you’re deaf, you’re still more normal than ordinary people.”
Damn! She cursed silently in her heart, “You really know how to sweet-talk.”
“I’m serious.”
“I believe you, now let’s continue eating.”
“Okay.” He obediently nodded.
A while later, Xiao Qinghe finished all the food in his bowl and put down his chopsticks.
Su Qingyue also just finished, “You’re a big man, and you only eat one bowl per meal?”
“I’m full…” She had specially served a big bowl of food for him tonight. Usually, he didn’t even need to eat that much.
She complained, “Compared to second brother and third brother, who can eat huge amounts… you really eat little.”
Hearing her talk about second brother and third brother like this, he knew she didn’t mean any harm, and he couldn’t help but laugh.
“Oh, you can laugh too.” She teased him, “Don’t have that same facial expression all day long. It makes me want to punch you.”
He didn’t quite understand, “What kind of expression?”
“It’s like that river in the south of the village, with no waves, so bland that it makes you feel dizzy.”
She stood up and began to clean up the bowls and chopsticks.
“Qingyue, you only ate one bowl too. And your bowl had less food than mine…” He protested awkwardly.
She glared at him, “You’re a man, and I’m a woman. I eat less, and you have a problem? If you can, switch with me.”
‘ His face turned as red as his lips in embarrassment, “I’m just afraid that you’re not full…”
“I’m full.” She said casually, “If I eat any more, I’ll be stuffed to death. Alright, I’m going to wash the dishes and do chores now. I won’t be able to see you talking later, so don’t curse behind my back. Even if you do, I won’t be able to hear it anyway..”
