Chapter 95 Open Your Mouth
While feeling somewhat disappointed, Old Mrs. Qin also breathed a sigh of relief.
"If you know of any job openings, tell Grandma, and Grandma will let your mom give it a try."
Job postings? Qin Yunzhou immediately sensed something was wrong from those words. His eyes flickered, but he didn't expose Old Madam Qin.
"OK."
Grandma Qin stood still, her eyes fixed on the steamer, swallowing hard, her feet seemingly rooted to the spot, unable to move an inch.
It smells so good! This big meat bun is making her mouth water.
If it were someone with a thinner skin, they might actually have been able to resist sharing some of the food from the steamer with the old lady.
Unfortunately, Qin Yunzhou was not one of them.
He seemed not to notice Old Lady Qin drooling at all, quickly took the two steaming hot meat buns from the steamer, put them in a bowl, and turned to go back into the house, leaning on his cane.
After everyone had completely left, Old Lady Qin stamped her feet.
Sure enough, if you didn't grow up under her care, you'd be just like this.
His own parents are both honest and kind people, so why did they change when it came to him?
Let her at least have a taste.
The Qin family's house is not big; it's just a small plot of land.
Once the smell of something is released, it's impossible to hide it from anyone.
Tianhua, who was tidying up the house, and Xiaofen, who was sewing shoe soles, both smelled the aroma and couldn't help but look in the direction of the fragrance, swallowing hard.
Speaking of meat buns, this family hasn't had one in years.
Xiao Fen was so tempted that she put down her needlework, ran to her mother-in-law's side, and whispered.
"Mom, Yunzhou and his wife have brought back some delicious food again. You're an elder, why don't you go and visit them? Maybe they can share some with you."
"You can share some with me then."
Tianhua silently distanced herself from her eldest daughter-in-law, sighed, and said, "Sui Sui is pregnant, and the food she eats every day has nothing to do with the family. It's only right that Yunzhou prepares some good food for her to supplement her nutrition."
"Stop worrying about that couple's business."
"Also, your father and I will not interfere in your relationship with the eldest son, but you cannot take that job, and you must repay your grandmother's money on time every month, not a penny less."
"Once we pay off that debt, you'll all have to start contributing to the monthly food allowance. Your dad's getting old, and we can't rely on him to support the family alone."
Xiao Fen yawned, casually agreed, and then walked away.
Inside the room, the door was closed.
Xu Sui originally didn't want to accept, but the meat buns were too tempting.
There's no way around it; in this era of scarcity, anything that's even remotely related to meat tastes incredibly delicious.
So, they each took one meat bun and sat on the bed to eat them.
The room was filled with the aroma of meat buns, and outside the window, you could even see several children from the courtyard running over, drawn by the smell.
Before long, all the meat buns were gone.
Xu Sui wasn't full. She wiped her hands clean and touched her slightly heaving stomach.
It seems like I get hungry even faster since I got pregnant.
Qin Yunzhou only ate half of the bun. Seeing that Xu Sui's appetite was bigger than before, he handed her the remaining half of the meat bun without saying a word and fed it to her.
Open your mouth.
Xu Sui didn't react for a moment, and subconsciously opened her mouth, and a large meat bun with a lot of meat filling went into her mouth, filling her mouth with the aroma of meat.
She widened her eyes slightly and ate the meat bun in her mouth.
Before I could even catch my breath.
The next second, Qin Yunzhou broke off another piece and held it to Xu Sui's mouth, specifically choosing the part with more meat filling.
Xu Sui didn't take another bite this time. She blinked at Qin Yunzhou and asked, "Aren't you going to eat it?"
I didn't see him eat more than a few bites just now.
Qin Yunzhou then brought the broken meat bun closer to her mouth, shook his head, and said, "You're pregnant, you need to eat more."
Xu Sui didn't refuse again; she was indeed a little hungry and hadn't eaten enough.
She's carrying more than one baby and needs even more nutrition.
So he opened his mouth and bit into the meat bun that Qin Yunzhou handed him and started eating.
Seeing her like this, Qin Yunzhou felt that she hadn't eaten enough, and his gaze unconsciously fell on Xu Sui's stomach.
It was hot, and the room was small and stuffy.
After returning to their own room, she changed into a cool, light blue dress that accentuated her slender waist. She looked stunning, even more beautiful than the fashionable women in Beijing.
But after sitting down, Xu Sui's slightly undulating abdomen was clearly visible.
It seems that being pregnant has increased Xu Sui's appetite.
We need to think of a way to nourish her body more. Eating only refined grains and white flour won't provide her with much nutrition.
Eggs are out of the question; she can't stand the smell of eggs.
Then all that's left is meat.
Before we knew it, it was the day after tomorrow.
The written test results for the textile factory and grain depot came out yesterday.
Xu Sui passed all the tests and successfully entered the final round of interviews.
When she arrived at the textile factory for an interview, she met Wang Jianli again, as well as her former high school classmate Gu Xiaoyan.
One of them was the son of the textile factory director, and the other was the daughter of the deputy director.
Gu Xiaoyan wasn't surprised to see Xu Sui. As her classmate, she knew Xu Sui's learning ability; a mere written test wouldn't be difficult for her.
However, interviews are different.
Of the four people who were interviewed, only Xu Sui had the least privileged family background.
Gu Xiaoyan thought for a moment, then walked over. "Long time no see, Xu Sui."
"Didn't you go to the army to get married? Why are you back?"
The person in front of me is even more radiant and beautiful than last year. Her fair and tender skin is like soft tofu. Her skin is not dark; it is definitely considered fair among ordinary people, but compared to Xu Sui, it is even more striking.
She still had to admit that she was indeed much darker than others, which made her look like a country bumpkin in comparison.
Xu Sui looked at the young woman walking over, and after thinking for a while, she recognized who she was.
The original owner had a classmate from high school whom she didn't know well; the two of them basically had no relationship.
"Yeah, I came back because of something."
Gu Xiaoyan subconsciously looked in the corner in the direction of Wang Jianli, and her eyes met his.
No, that's not right. It should be said that it was the gaze that was secretly directed at Xu Sui.
She paused for a moment, somewhat surprised, but not too surprised. After all, this person had liked Xu Sui for so many years, how could he give up so easily?
"Xu Sui, are you really married?"
"Since you got married while serving in the military, why didn't you go with your husband to the military base? Why did you have to come back?"
Hearing this somewhat inexplicable question, Xu Sui couldn't help but take a closer look at the person in front of her.
Why are you asking these questions?
They don't seem to know each other well; they barely exchanged a few words during their two years of high school.
Gu Xiaoyan pursed her lips and clutched the hem of her clothes.
"My parents said that Wang Jianli's mother intends for me to get engaged to him, and our two families have already started looking at each other."
"It won't be long before, barring any unforeseen circumstances, he and I will become revolutionary partners. If things go well, I'll invite you to my wedding."
