Chapter 307: Strict Wife and Housekeeper
Liu Sisi said with a smile, stretching out her hand to pick one up and hand it to her.
Liu Zhi’er glanced at it but shook her head: “No, I have injuries on my body. I won’t eat fish.”
Liu Sisi quickly withdrew her hand: “Then… how about I pour a bowl of meat soup for you first?”
“No need, I just had some soup medicine, I can’t eat anymore.” Liu Zhi’er quickly refused.
“It’s just a bowl of soup, there’s no way you can’t eat it. You look so weak and injured all over, you need to eat more to recover.”
Liu Sisi grabbed a bowl without waiting for a response, directly scooped a bowl of meat soup, deliberately picking half a bowl of meat bones to add, and handed it to her bowl: “Hurry up and eat, we are sisters, not strangers, hurry up.”
Liu Zhi’er took the bowl and held it for quite a while without moving.
“Don’t just stand there, it’s getting cold fast. If it’s cold when you eat it, your heart will be chilled too.”
As Liu Sisi struggled with the meatballs, seeing Liu Zhi’er not moving her chopsticks for a long time, she hurriedly spoke.
“I’ll eat, just eat.”
Liu Zhi’er smiled and sniffed, then laughed!
Immediately, she picked up the bowl, took big bites and swallowed, together with the tears rolling into the bowl, down into her stomach.
Liu Sisi did not comfort her, just gave a soft smile and continued working on the meatballs.
By noon, the cooked dishes were set on the table.
Due to the large number of people who came to help, Liu Sisi had placed the table in the hall, and a smaller table in the kitchen for themselves to eat.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Liu Sisi took off her apron and walked to the courtyard to call out to everyone who was helping, “Everyone! The meal is ready, take a break and come inside to eat after washing your hands. We can continue working later. The work is here; it won’t run away.”
Everyone laughed at Liu Sisi’s words!
Li Wu, who was nailing the wooden board, joked upon hearing this, “Sister-in-law, are you worried about Ye Lei getting hungry? You’re calling everyone to eat so early?”
His words were immediately echoed by those nearby, joking and laughing: “Of course! Look at Brother Ye Lei’s physique, who knows what will happen tonight… Huh? Blah! Haha… You guys know what I mean, right?”
“Haha! There’s no need to say it! Just look at Third Sister-in-law’s radiant face, it must be that Third Brother Di treats her exceptionally well and with great love every night. Am I right?” A young man with a small head chimed in.
As soon as his words dropped, a middle-aged man nearby teased, “I tell you Wang Wawa, seeing your third brother so soft and tender, what are you waiting for? Hurry back home and tell your parents to find you a wife too!”
“Haha, that’s a good idea!”
The young man laughed so hard that his mouth almost reached the back of his head, “I’ll go home and tell my mother to find me a sister-in-law like that! No! As long as she’s half as good as Third Sister-in-law, I’ll be satisfied.”
While talking, his foot slipped, and he rolled directly off the wall edge.
Fortunately, he was not injured, and he sprang up from the ground with a grin, still laughing.
“You just keep dreaming! With your bear-like appearance, do you think you can find someone like your third sister-in-law? Look at how smug you are!”
A man nearby casually slapped Ye Lei on the back of his head, causing a burst of laughter among the crowd!
Liu Sisi’s cheeks turned a bright red, not knowing what to do, she looked helplessly at Di Yelei for assistance.
Di Yelei was standing on the wall, his face full of laughter, completely oblivious to Liu Sisi’s plea in her eyes. It was a man with slightly graying hair beside him who nudged him; then he turned around and raised an eyebrow at Liu Sisi.
As Liu Sisi glared at him fiercely, he glanced around, still not understanding why she was staring at him.
This move instantly provoked another round of laughter from the surrounding crowd!
Liu Sisi grew increasingly embarrassed!
Stamping her foot, she hurriedly urged Di Yelei: “You… You big fool! Hurry up and invite everyone to come in for dinner!”
It was only then that Di Yelei responded, agreeing repeatedly: “Ah! All right!”
This appearance amused the crowd once again, and they all laughed, some even toppling over.
A man nearby couldn’t help but shout loudly: “Di Yelei! Who would have thought that such a big man like you would behave like this in front of your wife? Di Yelei, when Sister-in-law told you to go to the East Room last night, what did you do?”
“Well, I definitely wouldn’t have dared to go to the West Room! I, Di Yelei, always listen to my wife!”
He laughed out loud, unreservedly admitting: “I married my wife to spoil her! If a man doesn’t know how to treat his wife well, is he still a man? That would be worse than a beast! Haha…”
His face beamed with pride in front of everyone.
“Well done, Ye Lei! That’s what a real man should be!”
The man with graying hair beside him patted him on the back, sincerely praising him.
However, Di Yelei happened to be lifting one leg at that moment, and due to the pat, he fell off the wall, shouting.
“Ah—ah—ah! Ouch!”
Fortunately, his quick reflexes allowed him to catch hold of a purlin, cushioning his fall and preventing any injuries. He landed squarely on his bottom and provided everyone with even more entertainment!
Finally, after everyone had washed their hands, they gathered around the table. The table originally meant for eight people was now crammed with twelve, making it a full house.
Di Yelei continually urged everyone to eat: “Everyone has worked hard today! Hurry up and eat! Be informal! Also, as we still have to work on the beam later, let’s not drink any wine at noon. But this evening, everyone must drink until they can’t stand! Only when both guests and hosts have a good time can we be happy! Eat up, hurry!”
Di Yelei’s generosity was contagious, and everyone, being fellow villagers, knew each other, so they all ate heartily without hesitation.
Liu Sisi carried hot dishes, continuously replenishing the bowls on the table. Thankfully, she had anticipated this and prepared more than enough for each dish, which lasted about three rounds. It was only then the people began to slow down.
“Sister-in-law, you should go and eat too! Di Third Brother can take care of us here. With you around, we can’t even talk properly!” the young man beside her teased.
What could these men possibly talk about behind their wives’ backs?
Having heard him, Liu Sisi naturally couldn’t stay any longer.
She put the dish basin down and said generously, “Okay, it seems like you mischievous kid could use a wife to keep that troublemaking mouth in check! Wait until the day I find someone suitable, I’ll introduce her to you.”
