"Hey, Brother Leng, you came back early today." Zhao clan said in surprise.
"Well, the barracks are not busy today, so my son will come back earlier." Chu Wei said coldly.
"It’s a coincidence that you’ll be back when you come back. Your daughter-in-law made dumplings that you like today. You just cooked a pot. Wash your hands and eat." Zhao said.
Chu Wei chilled and said, "Mother, my son is not hungry. You and Dad will eat first, and I will cook the remaining dumplings."
Zhao originally wanted to refuse, but when he saw his son kept looking at his daughter-in-law, he left with interest.
After Zhao's departure, Chu Wei Leng sat in front of the stove and continued to cook dumplings.
The dumplings here are okay, they don't taste too much when cooked, but the fried leek boxes in the pot beside them have a strong flavor.
Looking at the fried leek boxes on the pan, Chu Wei couldn't help swallowing.
After a while, the water in the pot boiled, and Chu Wei Leng stood up and poured the dumplings into the pot.
After covering the pot, Chu Wei couldn't help but leaned to Luo Jianjia's side and looked at the leek box in the pot.
It was okay when I was sitting, but now I stand up, and when I smell the leek box, my stomach starts to sing first.
The two pots were already together, very close, and the distance between Chu Weilian and Luo Jianjia was also very close.
At this moment, Chu Wei Leng deliberately got closer, and the two of them could touch him as soon as they raised their hands and turned around.
Therefore, Luo Jianjia also heard the voice of Chu Wei's cold belly.
The belly sound was really loud, as if he had been hungry for several meals.
But Luo Jianjia was sure that the person beside her had just eaten two large bowls of noodles in the morning, which was more than what she had eaten all day.
Luo Jianjia was holding a shovel in his left hand and chopsticks in his right hand, turning his head to look to his side.
She didn't expect that Chu Weilian was so close and his head hung so low. When she turned her head, she happened to see Chu Weilian's Adam's apple.
Luo Jianjia was startled immediately.
Staring at it, the Adam's apple scrolled up and down as if consciously.
It looks quite sexy.
Luo Jianjia's mind suddenly went blank, and she forgot to think.
There is only one impulse, wanting to touch it.
Thinking of this, the hand suddenly loosened, and the chopsticks that turned the food box in his hand were about to fall.
Between the lightning and flint, one hand grabbed her wrist faster.
Luo Jianjia immediately woke up, and she clenched the chopsticks tightly in her hand, and did not let the chopsticks fall.
After steadying the chopsticks, she looked up at the face that was close at hand.
At first glance, he discovered that Chu Weilian had a faint stubble on his face, and he hadn't shaved for how long.
"Lady." A mellow voice rang.
"Huh?" Luo Jianjia replied, pursing her lips.
"The leek box is going to be pasted." Chu Wei said coldly.
Hearing this, Luo Jianjia was shocked and looked at the pot quickly.
Sure enough, the leek box she just wanted to put out was a little burnt.
There was a rare look of annoyance and distress on her face, and she quickly picked the leek box out of the pot, and her thoughts returned to cooking.
"It's okay, I'll eat this for a while." Chu Wei swallowed coldly and said.
After speaking, his stomach groaned again.
Luo Jianjia put the leek box on the plate, glanced at Chu Wei Leng, and said, "Or you should go to eat first. I'll just look at it here."
Luo Jianjia felt that Chu Weileng was actually not easy, as the war was about to go, and he had to go to the battlefield.
Looking at his tired look, I was afraid that he hadn't eaten well or slept well recently.
"No, I'm not hungry." Chu Wei said coldly.
As soon as he spoke, his stomach cried uncooperatively.
The two looked at each other, and Chu Wei Leng looked away awkwardly and sat on the low stool.
Luo Jianjia pondered for a while, looked at a few boxes of chives and eggs on the plate, and asked, "Do you want to eat the boxes of chives?"
This question is easy to answer. Chu Weileng didn't have any thoughts, and said: "Yes, it smells very fragrant."
"How about you eat one first?" Luo Jianjia suggested.
Chu Weilen was overjoyed and wanted to stand up and take the box.
However, he looked at his dirty hands and said, "No, please bear with me. I'll eat it later."
Luo Jianjia gave him a puzzled look.
Their family consists of four people, the staff is simple, and they are not so particular about it.
It's not that Chu Wei Leng has never done such a thing before, so he tasted two bites in advance.
Why are you still paying attention to it today?
Thinking about it, he put a new leek box into the oil pan.
"Ah, I didn't wash my hands." Chu Wei Leng explained, "Isn't this going to burn fire."
You can eat it after washing your hands, but cooking dumplings requires burning and dirty hands, which is very troublesome.
Hearing this explanation, Luo Jianjia placed the leek box and turned his head and glanced at Chu Weilen's hand.
I have to say... that hand is really dirty and black, and I don't know what I've been doing this day.
After reading it, Luo Jianjia turned his head back.
However, he just turned back, and then turned back, staring at Chu Weileng's hand carefully.
Sure enough, she was right.
"Are you injured?" Luo Jianjia asked, staring at Chu Wei Leng's hand.
Chu Weilian looked at the newly added wound in the heart of his right hand, turned it over indifferently, and said casually: "No problem, little injury."
Seeing how he didn't care, Luo Jianjia frowned.
"The wound should be treated well to avoid infection." Luo Jianjia said with much difficulty.
Hearing Luo Jianjia caring about him, Chu Wei looked at her coldly and said, "Okay."
The dumplings are made with vegetarian fillings, and this pot will be ready in a while.
The ten leek boxes over there are also fried.
After washing their hands, everyone went to eat.
Chu Weilen really liked the leek box, and when one end was up, he grabbed a leek box with chopsticks and ate it.
This box of leeks is not small, but Chu Wei Leng has a bigger appetite and ate a box in just a few bites.
He was about to reach for the second one when he saw an extra box in front of him.
"Thank you lady."
Luo Jianjia glanced at his injured right hand and said, "No thanks."
Next, Luo Jianjia took good care of Chu Weileng, handing him a box of leek for a while, and serving him dumpling soup for a while.
Zhao didn't know what was going on, watching the interaction between his son and daughter-in-law, he was very happy.
Although Chu Weilian felt that his hand was just a small injury, it was very helpful to see Luo Jianjia taking care of him in this way. He only thought that she had finally gradually changed her attitude towards him.
After the meal, everyone went back to the house.
Chu Weiling has also developed the habit of taking a bath every day, without Luo Jianjia saying more, when she comes back, he will take a bath.
When he came back from the penthouse, Luo Jianjia was still asleep.
She has contacted the master today to refit the penthouse tomorrow.
But just now, she suddenly thought that she had forgotten to tell Chu Weileng about this matter.
After all, this home belongs to Chu Weileng. He is the head of the family, and she is not good at changing the facilities at home.
"I want to tell you something." Luo Jianjia said.
"Well, you said." Chu Wei said coldly.
Later, Luo Jianjia told him about changing the penthouse into a bathroom.
Chu Weileng has always been in the barracks, and he doesn't even know the changes made by the heroine after coming to the border.
So naturally I don't know what Luo Jianjia is talking about.
However, this will not affect his decision.
"It's good for the lady to decide, and you don't need to ask me." Chu Wei said coldly.
If he takes a bath, a basin of water is enough.
He would not be as particular as Brother Wang, soaking in the tub for so long, nor would he be so slow as Luo Jianjia did, pouring his head in a basin of water and making it clean.
"Yeah." Luo Jianjia felt relieved when he saw that he had responded.
After Luo Jianjia had finished speaking, Chu Weilian happened to have something to say.
He walked towards the corner of the room and moved his hands vigorously to remove the upper cabinet.
He squatted on the ground, stretched out his index finger, and knocked on the ground.
At first, Luo Jianjia still didn't understand what he was doing.
Later, when the ground was lifted and a hole appeared in front of her eyes, she realized that there was still such a hidden grid on the ground.
Chu Weiling took out a box from inside, blew the dust on it, and walked towards Luo Jianjia.
When she walked to Luo Jianjia, Chu Wei Leng handed her the box.
Luo Jianjia didn't understand what Chu Weilian meant, so he glanced at the old wooden box and didn't answer it.
Chu Weilian knew that Luo Jianjia was a person who loves cleanliness, and thought she disliked that the box was too dirty, so he stretched out her sleeves and wiped it hard.
Luo Jianjia frowned when he saw that the washed white shirt instantly became stained.
This person is not too particular about it, right?
Use the clothes you just put on to clean the box.
Isn't there no rag at home, would it be difficult to bring the rag from the table?
Thinking that Zhao had washed the clothes for him, Luo Jianjia suddenly felt worthless for Zhao.
"Clothes are for wearing, not for wiping things." Luo Jianjia said.
"Oh, I see, now, here you are." Chu Weilian didn't care too much, and passed the box forward again.
Seeing him so, Luo Jianjia pursed his lips.
Some concepts cannot be changed overnight.
Looking at the box in front of him, Luo Jianjia took it and opened it to take a look.
I saw some paper inside, and more of it was broken silver.
Looking at the yellowed paper, Luo Jianjia opened it.
She is no stranger to this thing, I have seen it with Boss Chu before, it is a land deed.
To her surprise, it turned out to be a hundred acres of land. After reading it several times, she was sure that she was right.
Chu Wei Leng is just a seventh-rank official, and he has only been promoted. His salary shouldn't be enough for land acquisition, right?
After reading the contents, Luo Jianjia raised his head again and looked at Chu Weileng.
"This is my salary for the past six months, and some are rewards from the court. They are all here."
So, 60 acres of land is a reward from the court?
That's really generous.
Seeing Luo Jianjia staring at his land deed, and the look on his face was different, Chu Weileng was a little uncomfortable, saying: "Ah, the land is a wasteland, it has not been cultivated, and it is not valuable."
There are actually quite a lot of rewards from the imperial court, but it's a pity that the layers above are left behind, and only these things are left in Chu Weilian's hands.
Upon hearing this, Luo Jianjia suddenly understood.
She had seen the land here on the way, knowing that the wasteland was not valuable.
This place is afraid that no one has reclaimed it for decades or hundreds of years.
If it develops here, it might be possible to increase the price, but according to her memory, the male and female leaders will go to the capital in the future, and there will be others who will take over, and it has not developed.
Therefore, it sounds good to say that it is one hundred acres, but it is actually something better than waste paper.
"There are still more than thirty taels of silver in it, all of which I have saved over the years. I gave you eight taels last time, and I kept some of it myself, and the rest are here."
Luo Jianjia thought of Chu Weilian's salary, and felt that he could live a good life, saving so much money in such a short time.
But why does he show her these things?
Luo Jianjia was thinking about it, so he heard Chu Wei Leng continue to say: "Although she does not earn as much as the lady, but please don't dislike the lady. You must work hard for your husband and strive to make more money in the future to support you and your parents. And... well, our child."
Speaking of the latter, Chu Weileng became more uncomfortable.
their children?
Luo Jianjia was stunned, and looked at Chu Wei Leng before him in disbelief.
With a trembling of his hand, only a "click" sound was heard, and the box closed.
