After convincing Yan Jiecheng, Yan Bugui turned his gaze to Yu Li: "Yu Li, I just saw the kid from the Wang family watching the fun in the yard. He must not have cooked yet."

"Go to his house now and see if there's anything you can do to help. You'll get 20 cents for helping out!"

Yu Li hesitated and said:

"But... we are a single man and a single woman after all... Just now, Shazhu was arrested for this..."

"Isn't Wang Hongtao also single like Sha Zhu? What if the neighbors see him and say..."

Yan Bugui interrupted by waving his hand: "Can Shazhu compare with Wang Hongtao?"

"It's a tradition in Shazhu's family to be greedy for widows. Not to mention that Shazhu has had a crush on Qin Huairu since she married into the courtyard. How could he let go of such a good opportunity?"

"But Xiao Wang is different from Sha Zhu. He has good conditions and good looks. How could he be interested in..."

"I mean, Wang Hongtao has a good reputation and is a decent person. Otherwise, why would the director of the steel mill let him be the driver? It must be because he is reliable!"

Even Yan Jiechengdu endured the pain and advised: "Yes, Yu Li, even a petty old lady like Jia is willing to let Qin Huairu go to Wang Hongtao's house, what does that mean?"

"That shows that the boy can definitely keep himself in check when it comes to matters between men and women. How can Jia Zhang, who has been a widow for half her life, not understand this?"

"Go ahead and feel free to do so. I made fifty bucks today. Two cents a meal is enough for you to earn in half a year!"

After saying this, a hint of pride appeared on Yan Jiecheng's face. He was really unique.

Yu Li had a very conflicted expression, as if she wanted to go but was afraid to go.

But the more she did this, the more relieved the Yan family became, and they kept urging Yu Li.

Yu Li's expression was struggling but she was extremely happy in her heart.

Chapter 146 Finally Eaten

But the more Yu Li behaved like this, the more relieved the Yan family felt.

"So...I really go? If someone says something, you guys have to help me."

Yan Bugui: "Go ahead, go ahead. If someone really says that, just say that it was Auntie Three who took the job and you went over to help. The neighbors will just say that you are filial."

Third Aunt: "Yes, Yu Li, just go ahead and feel free. Don't rush back after cooking. You still need to help wash the dishes anyway."

"It would be even better if you can take some away if you can't finish it. At the very least, it would be good to eat some at Wang's house."

The family members discussed in their private conversations how they could gain more advantages, but no one considered what others said or whether they would suffer losses.

……

Yu Li walked out of the door with hesitant steps and a serious expression.

But as soon as he went out, he immediately put on a relaxed and energetic expression.

Humph, even if you didn't tell me, I would find a chance to sneak over. Compared to you, a scheming family, Wang Hongtao is better to me.

As for whether Wang Hongtao will take advantage of him?

That's not a big deal, right?

The good things that happened last time were interrupted, and not only Wang Hongtao felt regretful, but Yu Li was also in a trance.

Today, my body is finally completely clean, and it is the safest time...

……

In the room.

Wang Hongtao took out a piece of fat wild boar meat from the space and planned to stew eggplant.

This way, you have both vegetables and meat, and even soup for the rice. It is simple, convenient and delicious.

I was just preparing the meat and stewing it when I saw Yu Li walking in briskly.

Wang Hongtao saw this and smiled knowingly, thinking that it was about time…

"You came?"

Yu Li nodded shyly: "Well, my father-in-law asked me to come over to help you... help you cook."

"It's just as simple as cooking?"

Wang Hongtao raised his eyebrows and smiled wickedly.

Yu Li didn't answer, but just walked into the house with her head down.

Wang Hongtao thought that this young woman was still a little shy. If it were Qin Huairu, she would probably have been run over in the face by now.

But it’s fine this way, as it only makes the taste more exciting.

Tapping the tip of his toes on some unconscious dog, Wang Hongtao stood up leisurely and followed in.

After walking in, I found Yu Li standing in front of the stove, staring intently, and no one knew what she was thinking about.

So I walked over and hugged her gently from behind.

Yu Li shuddered at first, then closed her eyes, held Wang Hongtao's hand, and enjoyed the moment of tranquility.

"Is that eggplant stewed in the pot? It smells so good." Yu Li waited for a while and seeing that Wang Hongtao had no further response, she started to make small talk.

"Well, I went to the countryside a few days ago and got a piece of wild boar meat, and I happened to cook it today." Wang Hongtao still just rubbed Yu Li's ear gently, without any further action.

"I really envy you for having so many good things. They are incomparable to what I eat at Yan's house."

"Before I came out, I looked at today's meal. Each person gets a cornmeal steamed bun and a bowl of pickled vegetable soup."

"There's less than a small spoonful of pickled vegetables in a big pot of soup, so each person can get two or three shreds."

"Come to me if you're hungry. As for you, I have plenty of food to satisfy you." Wang Hongtao whispered softly, and the hot air he blew hit Yu Li's sensitive earlobe, causing her to tremble.

"Come over whenever you want to eat. Just find an excuse to come over and leave when you're full. This shouldn't be difficult for you."

Yu Li smiled bitterly: "Why would I need to make excuses?"

"Today, I haven't even said anything yet and they're urging me to come over. My parents-in-law think you have a good reputation and are from a respectable family..."

"Now even Yan Jiecheng doesn't object. He just wants to have a chance to bring some food back to satisfy his cravings."

Wang Hongtao was very surprised to hear this, and buried his head in Yu Li's neck: "How can there be such a thing? Uncle San is an intellectual after all, right?"

Yu Li felt quite pleased, and raised her head to whisper back, "Who knows? Maybe they think I'm unimportant and not as practical as money and leftovers. Or maybe they think you have a promising job and look down on people like me."

"Then do you think I like you?" Wang Hongtao asked mischievously, his actions becoming more presumptuous.

"I... I don't know..." Yu Li pursed her lips and looked at Wang Hongtao in reproach, her eyes almost tearing...

"I'll let you know right now."

After saying that, Wang Hongtao could no longer hold back, turned down the stove fire, and started standing up...

Outside the window, the autumn wind blows.

The house was full of spring, filled with a gentle and warm atmosphere.

.....

Half an hour later, Yu Li was panting with satisfaction, muttering involuntarily: "It feels so good..."

After saying that, he quickly covered his mouth.

"Where do you feel comfortable?" Wang Hongtao stared at her and asked playfully.

“Everything… is comfortable…” Gold Medal Housekeeping still felt a little uncomfortable.

……

The two of them hugged each other for a while, and Yu Li got up to serve Wang Hongtao some food.

When I opened the lid of the pot, I found that there was not enough rice, because the rice had already been cooked before Yu Li came, and now there was only enough rice for one person in the pot.

A hint of sadness flashed across Yu Li's eyes, and then she forced a smile: "It's okay, there's someone at home who will help me cook dinner. I'll go back to eat first, and then come over to help you wash the dishes after I'm done."

As Yu Li said this, she wanted to get up and leave, but her legs went weak and she was pulled back into Wang Hongtao's arms.

Wang Hongtao tightened his arms and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? How can I spoil your stomach?"

"Wait here while I go inside and get you something delicious."

After pushing Yu Li back onto the stool, Wang Hongtao walked into the kitchen alone.

He took out two bowls and brought a kettle of boiling water, preparing to try something different.

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!

That’s right, he plans to make a bowl of instant noodles which is known as the favorite for staying at home, Master Kong Braised Beef Noodles!

(The earliest instant noodles were produced by Nissin Company of Japan in 58. Instant noodles in China began in 1970, when Shanghai Yimin Food Factory No. produced China's first bag of fried instant noodles.)

After cooking the instant noodles in the pot, Wang Hongtao filled a bowl for Yu Li and served it to her.

Friends who have eaten instant noodles know that instant noodles are best eaten when you are hungry, but you can’t eat them often. It’s really refreshing to eat them once every ten days or half a month!

For those who have never eaten instant noodles in this era, it is simply a king bomb.

"Is this for me to eat?"

Yu Li looked at the steaming noodles in front of her in disbelief. She had never seen this kind of noodles before, but she knew they were delicious just by smelling them.

"Well, try it and see how it tastes." Wang Hongtao looked at Yu Li encouragingly.

Yu Li picked up the chopsticks and took a sip. Soon she couldn't stop and gulped down the whole bowl of noodles, even drinking most of the soup.

After finishing the meal, he raised his head with embarrassment and said with deep apology: "I'm sorry, Brother Tao, this noodle is so delicious that I couldn't resist it..."

Wang Hongtao stroked Yu Li's head and said, "It's okay. I cooked it for you anyway. If I want to eat, is there anything else I can eat?"

"Would you like some more rice? It's also delicious with eggplant soup. Noodles alone won't fill you up. This will save you from being hungry at night."

"That's not necessary..."

"Just eat what I tell you to. I don't like thin people!" Wang Hongtao said firmly, then served her a small bowl and mixed it with soup.

Yu Li held the bowl and ate in small bites, her heart filled with sweetness.

When she looked up at Wang Hongtao again, her eyes were full of love, almost overflowing with tears.

Chapter 147 Meeting Cai Quanwu

After eating and drinking, Wang Hongtao asked Yu Li to pick out the leftover instant noodles and take the instant noodle soup back.

As a result, Yu Li ran back, poured out the soup, and ran back with the bowl.

"Brother Tao, I...I'll come back and help you wash the dishes."

Wang Hongtao nodded, helped Yu Li tie her apron, and then walked out slowly.

I stretched my head towards Xu Damao's house and saw Xu Damao also washing dishes. He was humming a song while washing dishes. Maybe he was happy to see Sha Zhu making a fool of himself.

As for the thirty bucks….

To Xu Damao, it felt like there was not much difference between that and losing thirty yuan now. It didn't matter if the thirty yuan was lost.

Xu Damao was so focused on washing the dishes that he didn't notice her, but Lou Xiao'e, who was standing next to him, noticed her. She put down the melon seeds in her hand and waved her fist at Wang Hongtao, looking fierce and aggressive.

Wang Hongtao raised his eyebrows at Lou Xiaoe and made a void dragon claw hand gesture.

Lou Xiao'e was suddenly embarrassed and happy, and turned around and ignored the bad guy.

Wang Hongtao didn't take it seriously. He turned around and blew a hooligan whistle, then walked towards the central courtyard.

……

Middle Court.

Banggeng, who had just finished his meal and ran out of the house to play, looked up and saw Wang Hongtao and was immediately stunned.

Wang Hongtao glared with his eyes wide open and looked fierce, then stomped his feet and pretended to chase after him, scaring Bang Geng so much that he turned around and ran back into the house.

Soon, the voices of Bang Geng complaining and Jia Zhang's cursing were heard from the Jia family.

Wang Hongtao smiled and walked into Wang Hongbin's house again: "Abin, your food is good, with both fish and meat..."

Wang Hongbin wolfed down his food without stopping. He looked up and explained, "Neither of us spent any money. Factory Director Li distributed the meat a few days ago."
