Chapter 391: Recalling the Bitterness and Thinking of the Sweetness

Chapter 391: Recalling the bitter past and thinking of the sweet past

After practicing all the boxing techniques twice, two hours had passed.

Dai Qing was sweating all over, so she took a hot shower and came out feeling refreshed. Seeing that it was almost dusk, she began to prepare dinner.

There were spare ribs and pork belly in the refrigerator. Dai Qing thought about it and directly made a pot of stew and added some multi-grain pancakes.

The vegetables were stewed till tender and tasty, and the pancakes were baked till golden brown.

"Sister Dai, we're back. What delicious food did you make today? I can smell the fragrance at the door." He Ning entered the yard and started shouting with a smile.

Dai Qing sat under the porch, fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan. She wasn't fanning herself, but just to drive away the occasional small flying insects.

"Today's dishes are a bit rough, but it's not bad to change the taste occasionally." Dai Qing looked at the slightly tired faces of the two people and started eating.

When the two came over after washing their hands, they saw a large basin of vegetables and a basket of grain cakes on the table. He Ning's eyes widened with anticipation.
"Sister Dai, are we going to recall the past and think about the present today?"

"Pfft, look carefully, whose dishes are not pork slices or pork ribs?" Cai Kuan patted his shoulder, picked up a pancake, took a bite, and nodded, "You know what, it's quite delicious to eat it once in a while."

In those difficult times, many of our elders had to live on coarse grains. They were lucky to have lived through a good time and were born into a good family, so they never had to suffer any hardship since childhood.

It's just a special occasion, and we can commemorate it occasionally.

"Try them first. I added bean flour to the pancakes, which makes them more delicious when chewed." During the years when my grandfather was ill, life was not easy at home. We ate sorghum pancakes for more than a year. After eating one pancake, my throat would hurt.

During the meal, Aunt Wang saw her making pancakes, which were so hard that they could kill a person. She not only taught her how to use whole grains to make dough, but also taught her how to add alkaline noodles. When whole grains are combined with alkaline noodles, fluffy pancakes can also be made.

After that, grandpa recovered and came out again to improve the family's conditions. Since then, she has never eaten whole grains again.

"Well, it really tastes better the more you chew it, especially when paired with pork ribs, it tastes even better, hehe..." After eating a few chopsticks, He Ning's eyes lit up and he began to work hard.

The three of them ate up a pot of food and half a basket of pancakes. He Ning alone ate three pancakes.

“So full~”

"I haven't been this full for a long time. I need to digest the food." Cai Kuan rubbed his stomach and chuckled.

The first step to digesting food is to clear the table and wash the pots and dishes.

Ever since the two of them took over the washing job, Dai Qing hasn't done anything since. She also ate a lot today and really needed to digest it.

Dai Qing stood in the yard, watching the moonlight, and then pushed the door open and walked out. Following the dim street lights, she casually strolled in the alley.

Turning out of the alley and walking on the sidewalk of the main street, looking at the passers-by hurrying home from work, she felt that she was still very satisfied with her current life.

You don’t have to get up early in the morning to go to work, nor do you have to rush home to cook.

Dai Qing walked all the way to the entrance of Triangle Park, took a look, and then turned back, thinking that by the time she got home, she would have almost digested the food.

The autumn breeze is blowing and it is very comfortable to stroll on the sidewalk.

A leaf floated in front of her eyes with the wind. Dai Qing reached out to grab it, took a look at it, and threw it away. At the moment she turned sideways, she saw two people in her peripheral vision. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that she had seen those two people before.

I'd say they're neighbors, but it feels weird.

With this discovery, Dai Qing began to pay attention. It was not until she turned into the alley that the two stopped and did not follow her in. They seemed to be sitting at the entrance of the alley talking and chatting.

The moment Dai Qing pushed the door open and inserted the bolt, her expression became serious.

Dai Qing quickly moved the ladder from the utility room and placed it in the corner. She climbed up gently and carefully checked the situation outside.

After a while, the two men appeared in the alley again.

It would have been fine if I hadn't noticed, but once I noticed the two people's abnormal behavior, the more I looked, the more something seemed wrong. The two of them were walking in the alley, their eyes flickering left and right, and they were on guard.

He walked past her door and forward a distance before returning to her door, standing there for a moment before leaving.

As to whether she had left completely, Dai Qing was not sure, but now at least she was certain that someone was following her.

Dai Qing got down the ladder and after a little thought, she was able to guess most of the information, especially since Dong Zhen had come to explain it a few days ago, so she was almost certain of the candidate.

She was just very curious, what was Fu Chunbo's purpose in staring at her? Did he want to use her to get something on Dong Zhen?
What a pity! No matter what he thought, he was bound to be disappointed because he and Dong Zhen had no friendship.

"Sister Dai, why are you climbing the ladder?" He Ning walked over and looked at the ladder erected on the wall, extremely curious.

"It's nothing. I was just a little curious, so I climbed up and took a look."

This matter has nothing to do with Cai Kuan and He Ning. There is no benefit for them to know about it, so they simply don't say anything.

"How's the renovation of your house going?"

"My yard has reached the final stage, and Anzi's yard is being installed now. Even Kuan's yard is already being laid. It's going very fast."

The house that Cai Kuan's company allocated was almost ready, and all the furniture was moved in the day before yesterday. I thought I would let it air out for a few days and then move in.

With several yards put together, Technician Wang took on a big order. In order to meet the deadline, he recruited more workers and worked very quickly.

"That's good. If you need any help, just let me know. I don't have much to do normally." She goes to the park to set up a stall in the morning and is free the rest of the time, so she's still willing to help out.

"You really don't need Sister Dai's help with the house renovation. You cook for us every day, and it's hard enough. I understand it very well and have long regarded Sister Dai as my own sister."

He Ning laughed. He was not really stupid except that he was too lazy to think. If it weren't for Sister Dai's blessing, how could he have come to the capital to buy a house, and how could he have met such outstanding people as Cai Kuan and Tang Zikai.

He is the descendant of a businessman, and he is very smart. This is the golden thigh, he must hold on tightly.

Even if you don't use it, it's good to just keep it there for viewing.

Dai Qing had no idea what was going on in his head, so she put away the ladder and went straight back to her room.

I lay down on the bed and reviewed recent events again. I made sure everything was fine before closing my eyes and going to sleep.

The next day after breakfast, when He Ning and Cai Kuan went out, Dai Qing packed up simply and was about to set up the stall when there was a knock on the door.

Mr. Cai and the butler were standing at the door, holding bags of gifts in their hands, looking at her with smiles.

"Miss Xiaoqing, excuse me, I'm here to see Xiaokuan."
