I gave her five dollars, but the things she bought cost more than five dollars, so she must have brought money from home.

Gu Yao was busy in the kitchen and quickly prepared the noodles. There were also some vegetables that Li Juxiang brought in the morning, which were just enough to stir-fry and make the noodles.

The fragrance drifted into the study.

"It's time to eat," Gu Yao shouted towards the study.

Xiao Zaiye walked out of the study.

Gu Yao scooped a bowl of noodles and pushed it to Xiao Zaiye, saying, "Eat it first. If it's not enough, there's more in the pot."

Gu Yao filled her own bowl and started eating.

Xiao Zaiye also picked up the bowl and started eating.

The tender and smooth texture, as well as the rich wheat aroma, tastes almost the same as what her mother cooks at home. It seems that Gu Yao, who knew nothing before marriage, has learned how to cook after marriage.

The corners of his mouth curled up imperceptibly.

"It tastes so familiar," said Xiao Zaiye.

Hmm? What does Bingkuai mean by that? But Gu Yao continued, "Well, my mother-in-law told me how to make it, and I think it tastes good, so I made it for you."

"Li Juxiang and Da Zhuang both ate before me in the morning," Xiao Zaiye said sullenly.

"Huh? I was cooking in the morning and they came, so I made way for them and they sat down to eat. But these vegetables were given by my sister-in-law. She's a very nice person," Gu Yao said praisingly of Li Juxiang.

"I paid the money. I bought this dish from Li Juxiang and asked her to deliver it to you," Xiao Zaiye said with a frown.

"What? You spent money?" Gu Yao took a deep breath. She felt that she had lost a lot of money. She thought Li Juxiang was a good person. Then she thought that supplies were in short supply now, so it was good enough to be able to buy these vegetables.

"We also have our own private plot, but I have always eaten in the cafeteria and have never planted anything. I also don't have the time. I can only spend money to buy some from her and eat it for the time being," Xiao Zaiye said about the current situation.

"Okay, got it. I'll ask what vegetables are suitable to grow now. Even if we buy them recently, we can't always do so in the future." Li Juxiang didn't owe me anything. It was good enough that she could go to the supply and marketing cooperative with me. After all, I had no relationship with her.

Xiao Zaiye continued to eat the noodles in the bowl and soon finished the first bowl.

Gu Yao wanted to take his bowl and help him serve some noodles, but Xiao Zaiye refused and said, "You eat first, I'll serve myself."

Well, just do it yourself and save yourself the trouble.

Gu Yao was eating the noodles in her bowl. She only ate half a bowl of noodles, while Xiao Zaiye had already finished two bowls, which made Gu Yao stunned.

"Are you very hungry? The food in the pot is reserved for you," Gu Yao said to Xiao Zaiye.

"You should eat what's in the pot." Xiao Zaiye looked at her big body, heavier than himself, and thought she must be a big eater, so he let her eat the rest.

"I can only eat one bowl of rice at a meal. I can't eat more than that. I can't keep getting fatter. It will affect my health," Gu Yao said matter-of-factly.

Being so fat, I don't seem to fit in with others.

Others all looked hungry, but Gu Yao was now plump and rosy-cheeked, looking like someone who could eat.

Xiao Zai Ye raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, I'll eat them all."

He didn't hesitate to eat up all the noodle soup in the pot.

Xiao Zaiye enjoyed this meal very much. It was more fragrant and delicious than the one in the cafeteria.

This meal was eaten quickly.

Xiao Zaiye did not compete with Gu Yao for the job of washing dishes. Gu Yao knew that the army should be very busy and they were just taking time out to come back and have dinner with her.

Xiao Zai Ye stood up and said, "I'll go and get busy first, you can rest at home."

"Well, go and get busy," said Gu Yao.

After Xiao Zaiye left, Gu Yao was really fine. She packed up and went for a nap.

He locked the door from the inside, returned to the main room, and looked at the silver and money on the table.

It was the fifteen dollars I returned to him yesterday.

It was not in the room just now, it was placed on the table. It should be for herself. Gu Yao casually put the money in the space.

Wait until he comes back and ask him what this means.

I've been busy all morning today and now I'm smelling of sweat all over. It's really difficult to sleep. I can't even stand the smell.

Gu Yao fetched some water in a basin and wiped herself with a towel. Only then did she feel much cooler and fell into a deep sleep on the cool mat bed.

"Jianguo, you don't know how wasteful Captain Xiao's wife is. Today we went shopping together, and she bought a bottle of soda and gave it to a stranger. She is such a spendthrift," Li Juxiang said a little indignantly.

"People can give their food to whoever they want to drink, why do you care what they do?" Qi Jianguo went home for lunch at noon. He had steamed bread mixed with whole grains and white flour, and stir-fried vegetables.

"If it were you, you would take the delicious food and drinks home for your son. If you give them to others, I will never forgive you," said Li Juxiang.

"You can't give someone else's things for no reason, what's the reason?" Qi Jianguo knew that if he didn't listen to his wife, he wouldn't be able to eat well, so he asked while eating.

"We were riding the bus together, and we met a middle-aged man who fainted from hunger. Gu Yao gave him her soda without hesitation. Hey, he had already woken up after half a bottle of the bottle, but she insisted that he finish it. It was okay if she didn't want the other half, she could give it to me and give it back to our son." Li Juxiang is still thinking about the soda. When the man was drinking it, she could smell the sweet taste of the soda right next to him.

"Juxiang, you want everything. We are saving people. Don't take advantage of them in the future. How can I live in the army if you act like this?" Qi Jianguo wanted to beat this woman up now.

"I was just talking. It's not that I don't want it. She said that I must drink it all, saying it is good for my health. I didn't rush to ask for it. I know you have a sense of shame, so you can't do anything rash," said Li Juxiang.

"Well, let's eat," Qi Jianguo said, and started to gnaw on the steamed bread and eat the vegetables without stopping his mouth.

Hearing this, Da Zhuang said, "Mom, why didn't you buy me soda? I want to drink soda."

Da Zhuang pouted as he spoke.

"You naughty child, soda is so expensive. You might as well buy some noodles and rice with that money," said Li Juxiang.

"That fat aunt bought it this morning and gave it to others. You are my biological mother but you didn't buy it for me. You don't love me at all." Da Zhuang snorted and turned his face to the side, without stopping to eat the steamed bread.

Li Juxiang was mad at this naughty kid.

They lived in a compound. Although there were no delicacies, compared to most people who could not get enough to eat, they could have a full meal every time. Their life was much better than others.

But after Gu Yao came, she saw how deliciously others ate and how wasteful they were, and she felt that she was no match for them.
