Chapter 74

A group of kids looked at the car curiously, but no one went forward to touch the car. They were very well-behaved.

Su He saw that they were still standing there observing the car, and was afraid that they would touch or draw on Xia Chengan’s car, so he drove them all to the kitchen.

Xia Cheng’an was surprised when he first saw Fu Tinghua’s dilapidated mud house.

Dr. Fu is so respected and loved in the army, but how come the house he lives in is so shabby?

As long as Fu Tinghua wants, there are many people who will help him rebuild the house.

When he walked into the house, although it was shabby, it was cleaned tidy, which made the eldest master Xia Cheng’an feel less uncomfortable.

After entering the kitchen, I saw flour and a bunch of strangely shaped things on the table – uh… dumplings?

Only the dumplings on the other side were beautifully wrapped and looked very nice. Xia Chengan couldn’t bear to look at the others. They were obviously made by naughty children.

But as her sister-in-law, she actually allowed these kids to make trouble?

“Dad, look, this is a little rabbit I made.” Niu Niu immediately pointed at the rabbit on the table and said to Fu Tinghua in a show-off manner.

Seeing this, Su He hurriedly said, “Niuniu, did you make this specially for Daddy to eat?”

Niuniu wanted to say that it was for Mom, but then she thought about it and decided not to give it to anyone, so she nodded in agreement.

Fu Tinghua’s return was not completely useless. At least he helped her deal with the little rabbit made by the troublemaker Niu Niu.

“Well, thank you Niuniu.”

Fu Tinghua still had no idea how unpalatable the stuffingless rabbit made by his daughter was, and he still felt very gratified.

“Do you want steamed or boiled dumplings?” Su He asked while lighting the fire.

“Shall I have the steamed one?” Xia Cheng’an replied.

Su He looked at Fu Tinghua. After receiving her gaze, Fu Tinghua felt very uncomfortable and said lightly: “All is fine.”

After getting the answer, Su He did not hesitate and directly put all the dumplings into the steamer.

Seeing how skillfully she moved, she doesn’t look like someone who can’t work, Xia Chengan thought to himself.

It is probably just a false rumor spread by the women who like Dr. Fu.

At this moment, Xia Chengan felt a little sympathy for Su He.

Her husband’s appearance is so attractive. What kind of image has been spread about her?

Fu Tinghua also joined in making dumplings. It should be noted that he had helped his family make dumplings when he was a child, and he was quite good at it.

Xia Chengan sat aside and watched. He knew his own limitations and decided not to make trouble.

“Sister-in-law, why don’t you go to the city with Tinghua?” Taking advantage of his free time, the chatterbox Xia Chengan started chatting with people.

“My two children want to stay in the countryside, and they are not yet in school, so I follow their wishes.” Su He replied with a smile.

She would never admit that she didn’t go to the city because she didn’t want to be with Fu Tinghua.

It’s so comfortable in the countryside. It’s just the three of them, Su He, and she doesn’t have to worry about being exposed.

“Is that so? You don’t know. My good brother asked me to send him to the countryside to see you as soon as his shift changed.” Xia Chengan said jokingly.

Before Su He could reply, Fu Tinghua spoke first.

“You seem to talk a little too much today.”

“Oh, are you shy now? Hahaha… I won’t say it, let you two say it yourself.” It was the first time that Xia Cheng’an saw Dr. Fu at a disadvantage in front of him, and he was naturally very happy.

It seems that the rumor that Dr. Fu has no feelings for his wife is not entirely true.

However, Su He did not think too much about their conversation. Fu Tinghua came back because of the two kids, so it certainly could not be because of her.

Su He is still self-aware of this.

The first pot of steamed dumplings came out of the pot quickly. One pot can make two baskets of dumplings. Su He planned to give them to Fu Tinghua and Xia Chengan first.

Another folding table that had been exchanged in the space was put out, and then the steamed dumplings were placed on it.

Then he took out the prepared condiments and said, “The condiments here are spicy and non-spicy. You can order whichever you want and then you can eat.”

“Don’t worry, kids. The next pot of steamed dumplings will be ready for you soon.” Su He said gently to the children again.

It’s only a little after five o’clock now, and the kids are not very hungry. Most of them are just following the trend and making dumplings for fun.

So they all answered obediently: “Okay”

Xia Chengan and Fu Tinghua were a little surprised to see that Su He had trained a group of little kids who were at their most mischievous age to be so obedient.

Xia Cheng’an, in particular, had two nephews who were about five or six years old. They would always go up to the roof and tear off the tiles if they were not punished for three days, and were extremely mischievous.

Seeing his sister-in-law being angry about the children all day long, Xia Chengan suddenly didn’t want to get married anymore.

Tsk tsk tsk, look at the kids in Su He’s family, it’s really frustrating to compare yourself to them.

Xia Cheng’an was temporarily captured by Fu Tinghua to serve as a soldier, and he had to hurry back, so he sat down and started eating without any courtesy.

Fu Tinghua had been busy all day and had a quick lunch. He was already hungry, so he went to the next table to eat.

They were originally there to fill their stomachs, and neither of them was very keen on dumplings.

But when they put the dumplings in their mouths, they were all surprised that they were unexpectedly delicious.

“Sister-in-law, your dumplings and condiments are delicious.” Xia Cheng’an did not hesitate to praise the delicious food.

After saying this, he couldn’t help but eat dumplings faster.

Fu Tinghua knew that Su He’s cooking was getting better and better, but she didn’t know that her dumplings were also so delicious. They seemed different from the dumplings she had in mind.

The smooth and delicate taste, combined with the sauce, made it easy to finish a basket of dumplings.

The two men looked at each other awkwardly. What should they do? I want to eat another cage.

Xia Cheng’an blinked at Fu Tinghua. Given his understanding of his friend, Fu Tinghua naturally knew what he meant.

So he gritted his teeth and said to Su He, “Su He, steam two more baskets. Dumplings are delicious.”

As soon as Su He heard this, she knew that the two of them were not full. She was also a little embarrassed because she had overlooked the fact that men’s appetites were different from hers.

“Okay, this cage will be ready soon.”

Su He said, and just as he was about to get up, he was stopped by Fu Tinghua.

“You do your thing, I’ll take care of it.” Fu Tinghua said.

He stood up, opened the pot, took out two baskets of steamed dumplings, put them on the table, and went to wash his hands.

He walked to Su He again, bent down and put the dumplings she had wrapped into the steamer.

Su He didn’t expect Fu Tinghua to be so close to him so suddenly. The man’s pleasant scent hit her face, making Su He feel uncomfortable in an instant.

But she couldn’t avoid Fu Tinghua’s contact, and there were so many people watching her.

As long as she is not embarrassed, it is others who are embarrassed.
