Chapter 57 Big Dog, come here, sister, give me a hug

The two returned home, and the big dog that was hiding in the cat's bed meowed and came out.

Li Changpu was walking behind and heard Jiang Tingxia shout, "Big Dog, come here." He subconsciously moved his legs towards her, but finally stopped abruptly.

Li Changpu saw Jiang Tingxia clapping her hands at the kitten as it came over, saying, "Come here, big dog, give your sister a hug."

Listening to her crisp tone, Li Changpu thought of something and his face turned red.

The cat walked a few steps before Jiang Tingxia picked it up and held it in his arms. The man and the cat were very close. Jiang Tingxia kissed the kitten's furry head twice and said, "Big dog is so good."

Li Changpu really couldn't bear to listen to it anymore, but didn't know how to start the conversation, so she asked Jiang Tingxia to change the cat's name.

While he was struggling, Jiang Tingxia looked at him while holding the kitten, "It's hungry."

The cat seemed to understand and meowed.

Jiang Tingxia added, "I'm hungry too."

Two pairs of eyes, one big and one small, stared at him pitifully.

Li Changpu walked to the stove, looked at what ingredients were left at home, and said, "How about stir-frying beef and eating noodles for lunch?"

Jiang Tingxia nodded in agreement and saw Li Changpu take out a piece of bright red beef.

As she prepared malted milk for the big dog, she said, "You don't have to prepare these things specially in the future."

Jiang Tingxia realized belatedly that it seemed that since she complained about the bad food here, Li Changpu would always prepare some fruits, vegetables, beef, mutton and the like for the family, and the frequency of cabbage and pork being served on the table became less and less.

She explained, "I said the other day that I had had enough of cabbage and pork. Don't take it seriously. I was just saying it to myself."

Jiang Tingxia's dissatisfaction with the food was based on the comparison with Jiang's family's food. But after staying here for a while, she found that every household was struggling to make ends meet. Moreover, this place was remote, and it took a lot of effort to get some food. Li Changpu either had to pay the canteen to bring some for him, or spend an hour or two going to the city to buy it himself. It was not a hassle. She said, "I'm not that picky about food."

"Just eat and use what you are used to."

Li Changpu was cutting the beef with a knife. He had no skills at all, relying solely on brute force, and the texture of the beef was messed up.

He said, "Don't worry about these things, I will take care of them myself."

Jiang Tingxia touched Da Gou's head and said, "I'm telling the truth. You should just eat something similar to everyone else. The day before yesterday, you brought back a chicken, and at least three women asked me about it indirectly. This was in front of me. I don't know what they will say behind my back."

"After all, my identity," Jiang Tingxia paused before saying, "It's not good to be too conspicuous."

Li Changpu was cutting beef with a knife. The veins on the back of his hand bulged. The beef, which was originally very tough, was cut open with one knife. He said, "I know."

……

The marriage of Zhang Qiannan and Gu Yunqian went very smoothly and was settled in a few days. Zhang Hongxiang asked Jiang Tingxia to go to the town with her to buy a few feet of cloth for the woman to make new clothes.

Jiang Tingxia followed him.

Jiang Tingxia didn't like the name Qiannan, so much so that the name went around in his throat before he could say anything. Jiang Tingxia still smiled at the woman as a greeting.

The woman was still wearing the patched clothes she had worn a few days ago, but her face looked a little rosier and more energetic than before. Zhang Hongxiang smiled and said that it was the man who suggested going to the town to buy things for the bride today, and he even gave the money.

Jiang Tingxia was also happy for the woman. It seemed that Researcher Gu was a good person.

Their wedding was hasty and they had little time to prepare. They only had three days from the time they made the engagement to the wedding day. For convenience, they bought everything at once at the supply and marketing cooperative.

Zhang Hongxiang and Zhang Qiannan were choosing cloth, Jiang Tingxia stood aside and watched silently. Suddenly she felt something was wrong. She turned her eyes and found a strange woman staring at her.

Being caught peeking, the woman smiled awkwardly and walked away. However, she only took two steps before turning back and whispered to Jiang Tingxia, "Young comrade, your watch is really nice. I have never seen this style in the mall. It must be an imported product."

She had worn this watch for several years and was used to it. Only when someone suddenly picked it up did Jiang Tingxia glance at the watch and realize its existence.

This watch was a birthday gift from Li Xiu when Jiang Tinghe returned to the Jiang family that year. She and Jiang Tinghe each have one, exactly the same. She told herself over and over again in her heart that even if they were not related by blood, their more than ten years of getting along were not fake, and Li Xiu would still treat her as her daughter.

But it is different after all. She was just deceiving herself before.

The strange woman explained, "Little comrade, do you have a way to buy this lady's watch?"

After hearing this, Jiang Tingxia realized that there was some danger. Doing this kind of business now would lead to jail time. She stopped answering the woman and turned to leave.

The woman quickly stopped Jiang Tingxia and introduced herself, "Don't be afraid. My name is Xu Mei. I'm a worker at the Yishan Plastic Factory. I live nearby. I just want to buy a watch for my daughter. She's going to marry someone from another place, and as a mother I have to prepare something presentable for her. I've seen this watch. My daughter has a notebook with a picture of this watch on the cover, so I came to ask you."

Jiang Tingxia felt relieved after hearing what she said and said, "This watch was given to me by someone else. I don't know where to buy it."

Xu Mei was a little disappointed. Her daughter was marrying into a wealthy family, and her in-laws already had a lot of opinions about it. If she didn't bring something valuable with her, what would she do if she was looked down upon and bullied by her in-laws? Xu Mei had been worried about this for a long time. She had been looking for something in the county and town for several days, but she didn't know what to buy except gold jewelry. If she took it to her in-laws and saw it, they would laugh at her daughter for being from a poor family and not being able to afford good things. But when she saw the watch on Jiang Tingxia's wrist, her eyes lit up immediately. Even in department stores in big cities, you couldn't find such a good thing. Moreover, her daughter carefully cut it out of a magazine and put it away, looking at it from time to time. She must like it very much.

Xu Mei couldn't help but speak carefully, "Then are you selling this watch? I can pay more."

Jiang Tingxia glanced at the watch on his wrist with a complicated expression.

Xu Mei saw her reluctance and quickly said, "I'm not trying to force you, I just need it. But if you don't want to, forget it."

After Xu Mei finished speaking, she walked away disappointedly. She thought this matter was hopeless, but suddenly she heard Jiang Tingxia calling her from behind, "Wait."

Xu Mei turned around quickly, and Jiang Tingxia said, "I've worn this watch for a few years. If you don't mind, I can sell it to you."

Seeing that there was hope, Xu Mei was delighted and said repeatedly, "I don't mind."

Jiang Tingxia took off his watch and showed Xu Mei a faint mark on the cover. "I added the words myself. TX is my name."

Xu Mei saw that the mark was well hidden and invisible unless it was pointed out, so she said she didn't care.

Jiang Tingxia said, "Okay, I'll sell it to you then."

It's not for the purpose of selling it for money, but when she sees this watch, she will remember how excited and proud she felt when she got it.

That day, she proudly put the watch on her wrist and walked to the lawn of the birthday party, deliberately showing the gift Li Xiu gave her to every guest present. She even remembered how she pretended to lift her hair naturally and how she chattered to others, showing off how much Li Xiu loved her. Thinking about it now made her feel embarrassed.

Embarrassing memories are always remembered clearly down to the smallest details, and it is painful to recall them.
