Reborn 1980: Good Wife Gets Rich and Busy

Chapter 61 Words are not speculative
Cheng Tianyuan twitched the corner of his mouth and explained quietly: "My wife's affairs at home are not hers alone. There is nothing I can't help with."

Ouyang Mei pouted and whispered: "You can see clearly, who is not a woman who cooks?"

Cheng Tianyuan sounded particularly embarrassed and said in a deep voice: "When I was a child, my parents had to work in the fields, and I cooked all three meals at home. The housework is not heavy, but it is very tedious. I have to do it every day, and I am busy at every meal. Housework belongs to everyone in the family, not just to one person. As long as you are a member of the family, you have to strive to do it. Whoever does it does it for the family, not to help anyone else."

He cut the beef very thin and pulled out pieces.

"My daughter-in-law is usually busy with work. I have more free time than she does, so I cook more. Everyone has to eat three meals a day, she has to eat, and so do I. Is it possible that she has to cook all the meals alone? Who stipulated this?”

Ouyang Mei was speechless, but she couldn't find the words to refute.

Just thinking about it for a moment, I couldn't help but envy Xue Ling again.

She was originally someone she had fallen in love with early on, but she was unexpectedly intercepted by some fiancée!

She forced a smile and whispered: "I have to find a husband like you in the future. I can cook, but I hope he can also do it, so that he can help me."

Cheng Tianyuan heard it and pretended not to hear it, minding his own business.

Ouyang Mei felt bored and was afraid of being left in the cold, so she had to pick up the topic and talk about Cheng Tianfang.

"A Yuan, why didn't A Fang go to work in the cooperative? I went to say goodbye to her the day before yesterday, but she was not there. The people inside said that she took leave for more than a month and would not go to work for the time being. What happened to A Fang?"

The Cheng family was very secretive about Cheng Tianfang's matter. They covered up Lin Cong's visit to find someone, saying only that he almost had a chicken thief at night.

Then Ah Fang asked for leave at home, saying that he was helping the family prepare food for the winter because the old father's arm disease recurred.

Cheng Muhai has a chronic arm problem. Everyone in the village knows it. Knowing that Cheng Tianyuan is not at home, and the family has many fields, they will definitely not be able to complete the harvest before winter, so the villagers do not doubt A Fang's request for leave.

Cheng Tianyuan guessed that his sister was someone who couldn't hide her words, and he didn't know if she had told Ouyang Mei about it, but he was very cautious and still threw out this high-sounding excuse.

Ouyang Mei seemed to believe it, but her eyes dodge a few times.

She seemed to remember something and said with a smile: "The environment in the cooperative is quite good. But she is only an apprentice and can't get any money. She can do it for a few days. No one will like her if she works for a long time! Who will always be willing to do it? Working for others for free, right?”

Cheng Tianyuan explained: "It's just an apprenticeship for one year, and then you will be a formal worker. People need to have a long-term vision, like some college students who study for many years, and they have to pay a lot of tuition! It's not just for the sake of success. A bright future! Isn’t it just for a good future to endure temporary hardship?”

Although Ouyang Mei didn't talk to him on the same page, she was just a parrot. When he said this, she quickly nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes! That's the truth."

She was having a great time chatting, but Cheng Tianyuan found it boring.

It is said that when you meet a close friend, a thousand cups of wine is too little, and a half-sentence of words without speculation is too much.When he was with his wife, it seemed that as soon as the topic changed, there would be endless things to talk about.

But there is a serious disagreement between Ouyang Mei and Ouyang Mei. It is very difficult to talk, not only to talk, but also to explain - it is so tiring!
When he saw that the meal was ready, he quickly got into the pot and started cooking.

Ouyang Mei talked a lot about Cheng Tianfang and the cooperative.

"...On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I heard Afang say that Lin Cong is very talented and knowledgeable. I heard that he is going to college. This trip to the countryside is only temporary and he will return to the county town soon. Speaking of which, Coincidentally, Lin Cong is also from here."

Cheng Tianyuan's cooking movements paused, and he felt a little surprised.Unexpectedly, that weak scholar is actually from Ronghua County!

What a bitter enemy!Don't let him touch you, or you'll beat him every time you see him!
Dare to go to your own door to flirt with your own girl, and mistakenly identify your precious wife as Ah Fang - you are simply looking for death!
Ouyang Mei added: "My brother wants to open a store selling household appliances, and the store will definitely need manpower. My brother said before that I have to find two or three people to help. Ayuan, you said such a good thing , how can I take advantage of other people, but not myself, right?"

Cheng Tianyuan felt a little upset when he heard this and said "hmm" absently.

Ouyang Mei pursed her lips and smiled, her chubby face full of pride.

"I plan to ask A Fang to come and help me when the time comes. Don't worry, I will definitely give her a good salary and make sure she likes it!"

Cheng Tianyuan frowned and said, "It's better to say goodbye! She only took leave for more than a month, and she will still have to work in the cooperative. I have made an agreement with the president."

Ouyang Xiang is not a good person, and he doesn't know how good his business is. His sister is stupid, so it's better not to let her get too close, lest she just leaves the wolf's den and enters the fox's den again.

Ouyang Mei shook her head with a smile and said coquettishly: "Don't always be reluctant to let go of your sister! She and I are good sisters. Don't worry, I will take good care of her."

Cheng Tianyuan couldn't say anything else, thinking that he was not at ease at all and had to find an opportunity to tell his parents that he must not agree.

When the vegetables were cooked, he brought them to the table.

He added a little more oil and stir-fried the beef.

The beef had a fishy smell, so he specially added a little chili pepper, which made it extra fragrant when fried, and the whole kitchen was filled with aroma.

Ouyang Mei swallowed hard and couldn't help laughing: "Ayuan, it smells so good! Your craftsmanship is so good!"

Cheng Tianyuan knew that Xue Ling didn't like her, and neither did he, so he didn't want to keep her here for dinner at all.

"I will definitely treat you to a meal next time. You came a little late tonight. I didn't get much rice, so it wasn't enough."

Keeping her will definitely affect the daughter-in-law's appetite, so it would be better to drive her away.

Ouyang Mei was embarrassed and swallowed secretly.

"I... I just go out to eat. By the way, I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow! You take me to find a store to rent, and I'll treat you to dinner. That's it."

"No." Cheng Tianyuan shook his head and refused: "Didn't I tell you just now? My wife will have a part-time job at home during the holiday tomorrow, and I have to cook all three meals for her."

Ouyang Mei curled her lips and said reluctantly: "Then I can invite her as well!"

Cheng Tianyuan shook his head again and said: "You are too polite, it will cost you too much. It must not be easy for your brother to make money, you can't spend money randomly."

Ouyang Mei smiled, with a rather proud expression.

"The most important thing my brother needs is money, and I don't have to save it for him! I've been staying at the hotel for the past two days, and I've eaten out at restaurants for all three meals, and I've tasted a lot of dishes I've never tasted before!"
