Chapter 154: Chapter 154: Your Wife Came to Bring You Lunch

In the Jiang Family, the person who cooks is Tian Jinhua.

He Yuzhen returned last night, considering that every team is harvesting these days, if she weren’t allowed to enter, she would help in her parents’ household, Zhou Guizhi let her in.

Originally, today He Yuzhen voluntarily proposed to stay at home doing chores, washing clothes for the whole family, feeding chickens, cooking. Zhou Guizhi scolded her, “If you don’t go to the fields, you can roll back to your parents’ house,” so she gave up.

She didn’t dare stay at her parents’ house any longer, her sister-in-law and sister-in-law there disliked that she didn’t bring rations back, not only showing her attitude but also not allowing her to eat much.

He Yuzhen was exhausted, she worked slowly and was behind everyone else. Seeing Jiang Xingye helping Zhou Guizhi get work done, she laughed, “Xingye, leave the front part to you!”

She wanted Jiang Xingye to help her too.

Jiang Xingye ignored her.

“Little Ye, is your wife bringing you food?” Xie Zaohua saw her own daughter bringing food, walking alongside two people, one was Tian Jinhua, the other looked like Xu Qinghuan.

She had just finished speaking, Xu Qinghuan turned a corner, heading in another direction, where the educated youths were working.

Xie Zaohua chuckled awkwardly, “I must have been seeing things, mistaken.”

He Yuzhen sneered, “You weren’t seeing things, nor were you mistaken, that is Xu the educated youth. But, to be fair, they haven’t married yet, so why would Xu the educated youth bring food for Little Five?”

Which year during busy farming times did Little Five not eat with my family?”

Zhou Guizhi angrily said, “Do you want to talk endlessly, did you eat yours? Your family, your family, your parents’ house is your home, even a dead rat you want to bring back to cook a pot of soup for your parents’ house, when have you ever considered my Jiang family your home?”

He Yuzhen came over, yelled towards the field edge, “Dad, Mom, it’s time to eat.”

Jiang Xingye sat on the ridge without moving, he leaned against a tree, bent one leg, arm resting on his knee, just quietly watching families carrying baskets to the ridge, calling their family members to have lunch.

Dong Aimei also went to eat, her mom brought lunch, two miscellaneous dough buns, eggplant fried with the residue of pork in the pan, and a cucumber, this was already the best food.

Dong Aimei got an extra boiled egg, a special treat from her mom.

She gnawed on a bun, gaze fixed on Jiang Xingye, a few times wanting to go over to offer the boiled egg to Jiang Xingye. As she was about to get up, Jiang Xingye turned his head away.

“Little Five, come eat!” Zhou Guizhi called.

He Yuzhen quickly said, “Mom, there aren’t any extra buns, even three per person isn’t enough.”

Tian Jinhua was surprised, “How is there not extra, Little Five eats three, each of us eats two, how can there not be extra.”

Jiang Xingye said, “Aunt, I’m not eating.”

His girlfriend had promised to bring him food.

He Yuzhen laughed, “Ah, you’re not eating? If you’re not eating, I’ll take one more.”

She reached to grab an extra miscellaneous dough bun, Zhou Guizhi slammed her hand hard with chopsticks, “Eat eat eat, they won’t kill you, it’s Little Five’s, he’ll eat it later.”

Jiang Xingye did not get up, “I’m not eating.”

He saw Xu Qinghuan coming with a basket, sprang up but did not dare to go over, waited until she reached a distance of just a one-field apart and waved to him, calling, “Ah Ye”, then he hurried over in three steps.

“Is it hot?” Jiang Xingye looked at her flushed cheeks, his heart ached.

Nearby a man made gestures, “See, Ye Brother’s girlfriend brought him food, wasn’t it said that the female educated youth wants to marry Ye Brother so she doesn’t have to work? How come she’s bringing him food then!”

“Bring food to avoid work, would you?”

“I would, why wouldn’t I, what’s the use of not working, starve to death?”

“Didn’t see Ye Brother working so hard today, earning six or seven work points in the morning, must be trying to earn more work points to support his girlfriend.”

Jiang Xingye didn’t bother with the idle chatter, at this moment his eyes only had his girlfriend, took the basket, he led Xu Qinghuan into the small forest, kept a distance around ten meters from others, plucked some clean grass and spread it on the ground for Xu Qinghuan to sit.

Across a field, Jiang Chengxu was looking over, the jealousy in his eyes so thick it couldn’t disperse, he fiercely bit into a black flour wild vegetable bun, chewing hard, wishing he was eating Jiang Xingye’s meat.

“You sit too!” Xu Qinghuan didn’t pay attention to Jiang Chengxu, she pulled Jiang Xingye to sit together, took two lunch boxes from the basket and handed them to Jiang Xingye, “Eat!”

“Have you eaten?” Jiang Xingye asked.

“Don’t worry about me, I’ve eaten.” Xu Qinghuan steamed the buns, then ate one herself. The buns made from the spirit flour in the space were rich in Spiritual Energy, particularly tasty, with a strong feeling of fullness.

Jiang Xingye opened the lunch box, a strong aroma of wheat mixed with a sweet fragrance wafted out, drawing birds in the forest to swoop down, circling nearby.

The surrounding people also looked over, one asked, “Little Ye, what delicious did your girlfriend bring you, smells so good!”

They weren’t married yet, not a wife.

However, generally in the countryside, an engagement ten out of ten would mean marriage, calling her a wife ahead of time wasn’t improper.

Jiang Xingye cautiously glanced at Xu Qinghuan, seeing she wasn’t angry, he exhaled a sigh of relief, casually answered, “Just buns.”

Inside one lunch box were four plump white buns, each split in the middle, filled with mushroom meat sauce, another lunch box contained tomato egg soup.

The tomatoes were picked from Jiang Xingye’s vegetable garden, the eggs were stock from the space, a few drops of oil added, sprinkled with little scallions, red, yellow, green, fragrant, brightly colored, made one’s mouth water.

He Yuzhen came over, cast a glance at Jiang Xingye’s meal, so envious her saliva almost drooled, she complained, “Little Five, you eat so well, we’re only eating miscellaneous dough buns.”

She reached out towards the lunch box to grab a bun, “I’ll take one for Dad and Mom to taste.”

Xu Qinghuan slapped her hand fiercely, angrily said, “What’s there to grab? Reincarnated hungry ghost, see others eating and grab with your hands, any face at all?”

“Taking yours, I’m taking what belongs to my old Jiang family, what’s it got to do with you, you’re not married yet, don’t meddle!” He Yuzhen looked at Xu Qinghuan with complete disfavor.

“Scram!” Jiang Xingye snapped, his eyes fierce, “Don’t force me to act!”

He Yuzhen couldn’t believe it, “I’m your second sister-in-law, you dare treat me this way!”

Previously, she had bullied Jiang Xingye openly and secretly, he was always tolerant, now for a female educated youth, he dared treat her so rudely!

Jiang Xingye glanced at Jiang Xingyong, the latter swallowed a bun, “He Yuzhen, if you don’t scram over here, get back to your parents’ house right now!”

Zhou Guizhi was also infuriated, embarrassed in front of the soon-to-be daughter-in-law, she lamented how she could’ve been so blind and senseless, letting such a troublemaker in.

He Yuzhen angrily came over, complained, “Mom, Dad, Little Five is eating white flour buns, so fragrant, we as siblings might be fine, but how come you two elders cannot even get a taste?”
