Chapter 741 Cheng Guohua in dire straits

"This is the last dish, let's have eight auspicious signs." Mrs. Cheng said with a smile.

Sister Cheng's dishes were generous in portion. Fu Ling smiled helplessly, "Sister-in-law, each of your dishes is so generous. Are you sure you can finish them today? They won't keep for long."

"Sister-in-law, haven't you heard that half-grown children can eat their parents out of money? My two children are still growing up, and even on ordinary days, we have to prepare three dishes and a soup for every meal. Even if they are not the best dishes, they have never been picky eaters since they were young. They eat whatever is available and always finish it."

Then, thinking of what her eldest son had said to her when they came back from their visit to the Lu family, Sister Cheng told Fu Ling, "Last time when I came back from my visit to your house, my eldest son said to me, 'Mom, can you improve the taste of your cooking? I can't say I can surpass the chef, but at least I can break through myself and improve the taste a little bit.'"

"The little brat is still worried that I have some ideas, and he keeps finding reasons to comfort me, saying that the food I cook is not bad, but there is still room for improvement. I think he just dislikes the food I cook." Mrs. Cheng said with a smile, and she was not angry about what the child said.

Fu Ling also smiled: "Dabao is so cute."

"It's cute and very naughty."

"It's normal for boys to be a little naughty. The way a child speaks fully reflects the education of a family. Sister-in-law, I think you have brought them up very well. They want you to improve, but they won't hurt your feelings. How wonderful! If it were a selfish child, the ending would not be a loving mother and filial son."

"Just speak for him." Although she said that, the upturned corners of her mouth still betrayed her.

After a busy morning, the meal was finally served.

Except for three vegetarian dishes, the rest are meat dishes.

"Sister, Xiao Lu, don't be polite to your sister-in-law. Treat this place as your own home and eat more."

"Sister-in-law, I was drooling when you first started cooking. I won't be polite to you." As he said that, he picked up a piece of braised turtle with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

The taste was surprisingly good. Fu Ling's eyes lit up a bit. "Sister-in-law, you're being modest, but you still refuse to admit it. This braised turtle can be sold outside. It's not fishy at all, and the taste is very special."

Cheng Guohua said proudly, "Of course not. Braised turtle is your sister-in-law's specialty. It's just a coincidence that I saw it for sale. You are lucky to have it."

He would not miss the opportunity to flatter his wife.

Mrs. Cheng glared at him, then stood up and picked up some food for Sanbao.

"Children, eat more."

"Thank you, Auntie."

"···"

Mrs. Cheng didn't even have time to eat herself. She arranged everything for the children clearly, but it didn't seem deliberate. It was as if that kind of casualness was ingrained in her nature.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry about them. Let the children eat by themselves. Sit down and eat quickly. The food will get cold soon."

"What my sister-in-law said makes sense. We are not outsiders. Come and sit down and eat."

"Okay, okay, I'm just so happy. Please come often in the future." After sitting down, he noticed that the bowl was full of dishes.

Cheng Guohua smiled with joy, this time he finally got a smile from his wife.

I feel so happy in my heart, it’s sweeter than honey.

"Such a delicious dish is perfect to go with wine." Cheng Guohua was itching to try it.

"Why drink? My sister-in-law and the others drove here. Drunk driving can easily lead to accidents. You are really talking about something that is out of the question." The smile on Mrs. Cheng's face quickly disappeared, and she glared at him fiercely.

"I'm just talking. I don't usually drink, right?"

Normally, whenever he was taking a break, Mrs. Cheng would let him have a drink, but today was different, and she didn't prepare any alcohol at all.

"Don't you usually drink enough at home? My sister-in-law and Xiao Lu are not outsiders. I won't give you face in front of them."

Fu Ling fanned the flames and said, "Sister-in-law, just do what you have to do. Don't worry about it."

Cheng Guohua gestured to Lu Beichen to keep his wife in check, but he was ignored.

It would have been fine if he just ignored it, but he even added fuel to the fire and said, "Sister-in-law, Lingling is right, we are all family."

The couple sang the same tune, and Cheng Guohua almost vomited blood in anger.

"Learn from Xiao Lu. I've never seen him drink. As soldiers, you often think that when you're out in the field, you should drink less and stay sober at all times."

Fu Ling agreed, "Sister-in-law, you're absolutely right. Our Lu Beichen rarely drinks. He only drinks with the elders during the Chinese New Year. Otherwise, he doesn't drink or smoke."

As he spoke, he smiled at Cheng Guohua.

Damn it, this is just adding fuel to the fire. I quickly tried to justify myself: "It's normal for men to smoke and have a drink occasionally."

"What the hell is normal? Are cigarettes and alcohol good things?" Mrs. Cheng retorted.

There is no harm without comparison. Looking at it this way, the man in my family is really useless.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Cheng Guohua quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake: "Wife, you are right to scold me, I am wrong, can't I just intercept it?"

"How many times have you said you'd quit? Wait until you're truly successful."

When facing Fu Ling, Mrs. Cheng changed her expression again, vividly demonstrating how a woman can change her attitude faster than turning the pages of a book.

"Sister, you must control Xiao Lu. He must not smoke. Cigarettes are not good things. Once you get addicted, it's hard to quit. It's like taking drugs. It also makes the house full of smoke. I can't stand the smell of cigarettes."

Cheng Guohua muttered quietly: "I didn't smoke in front of you, did I?"

Mrs. Cheng looked at him sideways and said, "Speak louder. I can't hear you clearly."

"No, I mean, wife, everything you said is right. I will quit. This time I will definitely quit."

Fu Ling and Lu Beichen exchanged a glance, and seeing him get humiliated, they felt secretly pleased.

The couple looked like they were enjoying the show, and Cheng Guohua felt like crying but had no tears. It was his bad luck to meet this couple.

Fortunately, the topic was no longer directed at him, and the meal was quite enjoyable.

After dinner, a few of them sat together and chatted until around four in the afternoon when they were ready to leave.

Mrs. Cheng was reluctant to leave: "If Xiao Lu hadn't had to go back to the army, I would have kept you for dinner before leaving. When you have your annual leave, you must come to our house more often."

"Okay sister-in-law, I will come to see you often when I have time."

"Then it's a deal. Come here often."

It's rare to meet someone you get along with, but our homes are too far away. Otherwise, we wouldn't be too bored if we visited each other often.

Cheng Guohua packed his luggage and came out, waving to Sister Cheng: "Wife, I'm taking Beichen's car back to the army. Thank you for your hard work at home."

"Well, go ahead. Take care of your health in the army."

"okay."

"Sister-in-law, let's go. We'll get together next time."

"Okay, be careful on the road. It's still early, so drive slowly."

Then he thought of something and called Fu Ling again: "Sister, wait a moment."
