Chapter 193: The lickspittle and the rough man in the period literature (12)
"Mom, let's stir-fry meat today. I bought some meat." Jiang Zui held the meat and gestured to Jiang's mother.
When Jiang Zui saw the meat in his hand, Jiang's mother's eyes lit up and she asked with a smile, "Where did you get it from?"
"I bought it."
"Where did you buy it?"
"In town."
"Mom, you and my dad have worked hard these days. Let's buy some pork to replenish our body." Jiang Zui said with a smile.
Jiang's mother snorted and said, "Repair? Are you repairing it for me and your father? I think it's for Xiao Gu."
In the past few days, the news that her son was working for Gu Chaoyu had spread everywhere.
In addition, her son cooks for her three meals a day.
She had never encountered such treatment before.
Hearing what Jiang's mother said, Jiang Zui scratched his head in embarrassment and said shyly: "Mom, Xiao Gu gave me the money."
Actually, I didn’t.
Gu Chaoyu originally wanted to give money, but was rejected by Jiang Zui.
He is a grown man, can't he even support his wife?
It's just that due to my reputation, I can't tell the truth.
"Haha, give money? Didn't your father and I give you money?"
"Oh, Mom, this...this is different."
Jiang's father and mother gave Jiang Zui money, but Jiang Zui would also bring him some food, drinks, daily necessities and clothes on weekdays.
Jiang's mother didn't mean anything by it, she was just teasing her son.
"Okay, okay." Jiang's mother compromised and said, "Stir-fried meat, okay?"
"Thank you, Mom." Jiang Zui paused and said, "By the way, Mom, I got a lot of meat, why not fry some of it and make dumplings with the rest."
"You just know how to cause trouble for your mother."
"Mom, let me help you."
Jiang's mother couldn't hide the smile on her face.
She found that since Jiang Zui and Gu Chaoyu met, Jiang Zui became more diligent.
Faced with the improvement of their son's temperament, the Jiang family expressed gratitude to Gu Chaoyu, whom they had only met a few times.
The reason why Jiang Zui helped was because Jiang's mother was very frugal and was reluctant to use oil when cooking.
In fact, according to the living standards of Qing'an Village, the Jiang family is already superior.
But in Jiang Zui's opinion, it still doesn't work.
There is one most important reason: Gu Chaoyu likes the food he cooks.
Jiang Zui helped his mother chop the stuffing, knead the dough, and quickly wrapped the leek and pork dumplings.
By the way, I also fried two dishes, one with minced beans and meat, and the other with braised eggplant.
This meal is usually only eaten by the Jiang family during festivals and important occasions.
However, ever since Jiang Zui had been tinkering with something outside, although he had no money, his living standard had improved several levels. At least, he went from eating meat once a month to three or four times a month.
Jiang Danian and Jiang Cheng returned home from work and their eyes widened when they saw the dumplings and meat dishes on the table.
"What day is it today?"
"Mom, where's the meat?"
Jiang Zui smiled and replied: "Dad, brother, you are back, wash your hands and eat.
This is pork I got from town, it’s very fresh.”
Jiang Zui said this as he packed the food into an aluminum lunch box.
Seeing Jiang Zui packing food, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Zui, what are you doing?"
"Send food to Gu Zhiqing."
Jiang Danian heard this and urged, "Then hurry up and don't let Gu Zhiqing wait anxiously."
"I got it, Dad. I'll go right away." Jiang Zui said, took the lunch box, and quickly walked out of the house.
Jiang Danian knew Gu Chaoyu's background, and he expressed his willingness for his son to be on good terms with him.
Not long after Jiang Zui arrived at the educated youth site.
Because Jiang Zui often appeared at the educated youth site in the past few days, and when it was time for dinner, some villagers began to deliver meals to the educated youth, making the site very lively.
The educated youth were very indifferent to Jiang Zui's appearance.
Jiang Zui went straight to Gu Chaoyu's room and said as he walked: "Gu Zhiqing, I'm here to bring you food."
Gu Chaoyu, who was in the room, heard Jiang Zui's voice, stood up subconsciously, and walked towards the door, with a slight blush on the tips of his ears.
Jiang Zui, this reckless man, is truly a two-faced person.
When there are people around, call him Gu Zhiqing; when there is no one around, call him wife.
Coincidentally, as soon as Gu Chaoyu opened the door, their eyes met.
Jiang Zui winked at Gu Chaoyu with a teasing look in his eyes.
Gu Chaoyu received Jiang Zui's gaze and rolled his eyes silently.
Humph! You just know how to tease him.
For some reason, Jiang Zui always liked to do bad things to him secretly.
"Come in." There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Gu Chaoyu's tone.
Jiang Zui heard it, but didn't say anything.
At this time, there were two other people in Gu Chaoyu's room, He Moyang and Song Jiarui.
Like Gu Chaoyu, Song Jiarui hired villagers to cook for him.
It happened that the grandson of that villager came to bring food to Song Jiarui.
Gu Chaoyu asked Jiang Zui to sit at his desk. When he saw Jiang Zui taking two aluminum lunch boxes, he was stunned and asked in confusion: "Why so many?"
On weekdays, although Jiang Zui only took one, the lunch box was stuffed full and he couldn't finish it every time.
Today, I actually got two?!
Jiang Zui explained: "I want to eat with you."
Hearing this, Gu Chaoyu secretly glanced at He Moyang and Song Jiarui, fearing that what Jiang Zui had just said was heard by them.
Fortunately, Jiang Zui's voice was very low and Song Jiarui, who was eating, did not pay attention to them.
However, He Moyang was wholeheartedly paying attention to Jiang Zui and Gu Chaoyu all the time, so he also heard what Jiang Zui said.
He Moyang frowned, feeling something was wrong.
Ever since he allowed Gu Chaoyu and Jiang Zui to get closer, he found that his luck seemed to have gotten a lot worse.
Also... Jiang Zui's intimate tone doesn't sound like the attitude of communicating with friends, but more like... more like communicating with a partner...
That’s right, an object.
Depend on!
What on earth is going on in his mind?!
Jiang Zui and Gu Chaoyu? !
them? !
They are both men?!
Gu Chaoyu glared at Jiang Zui fiercely as a warning.
"In that case, let's eat quickly." Gu Chaoyu said to Jiang Zui with gritted teeth.
When eating, you won’t talk nonsense.
Jiang Zui looked at Gu Chaoyu's little jumping action, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said: "Eat."
As soon as Gu Chaoyu opened the lunch box, his eyes widened and he stammered, "You...Jiang Zui, is this...your home..."
Although Gu Chaoyu didn't finish what he said, Jiang Zui already understood. He nodded and said, "My mother and I made these dumplings together. They're still hot. Come and try them."
When Song Jiarui and He Moyang heard the word "dumplings", they looked sharply at the lunch box on the table and discovered that there were not only dumplings but also vegetables, and the vegetables were meat.
Song Jiarui looked down at his lunch box again and felt a little dissatisfied. He had obviously paid someone to cook for him, so why did Gu Chaoyu's meals consist of meat dumplings while his were only vegetables and steamed buns?
The most pitiful one was He Moyang, who was holding a steamed bun with pickles and drinking hot water.
