Chu Qiao took out a plate, she sliced some meat floss steamed eggs and took some of the stir-fried shredded pork with green pepper, then she was ready to send them to Xuan Hongxia’s family.

Although she had only chatted with her for a while, she could see that Xuan Hongxia was warm-hearted, decisive, and had great prestige in the machine tool factory. 

Although she and Gu Ye only had a fake marriage, before the divorce, she was going to live in the machine tool factory, so she certainly needed to get along well with the neighbors. 

But it would be impossible to get along well with everyone, Chu Qiao didn’t have that kind of time and energy.

She had already decided to establish a good relationship with Xuan Hongxia first. 

With Xuan Hongxia in charge, the housewives in the building should not dare to mess with her. 

“I’m going to send some dishes to Hongxia jie*.” Chu Qiao explained.

*Jie (姐) : Older sister 

There were quite a lot of dishes that she had cooked today, and it was normal for neighbors to share food with each other.

In the 1980s and 1990s, there was a strong sense of community, especially in the family building units. 

Anyone who made delicious meals would share some with their neighbors to taste it. 

However, with the rapid development of the economy, the conditions were getting better and better, and the human relationship was becoming less and less. The condition of living in the countryside was better.

The people in the cities lived in a building. Even if they lived and faced each other for several years, they might not know the other person’s surname. At best, they would just nod their heads when they met. 

“Auntie, I‘ll go.” Zhou Dabao said in a loud voice, especially enthusiastic. 

Previously, it was always Aunt Xuan who sent delicious food to him and his younger brother. 

Uncle Gu’s cooking skills were too bad, and he couldn’t stand the food he cooked. 

Zhou Dabao had always been thinking of the opportunity to repay Shou Hongbin, and this day had finally arrived. 

The dishes cooked by his beautiful aunt were so fragrant, Shou Hongbin must have drooled over it. 

Shou Hongbin was Xuan Hongxia’s youngest son, ten years old this year, and had a good relationship with Zhou Dabao. He would often bring his mother’s delicious food to the Zhou Dabao brothers. 

Chu Qiao looked down and said with a smile, “Dabao, you have to go wash your hands first. You can only hold the dishes after washing them thoroughly until they smell good.” 

“I’ll go wash my hands!” 

Zhou Dabao lowered his head, and saw that his hands were stained with a lot of dust. 

His face couldn’t help but redden, he flew towards the water room.

Zhou Xiaobao was stunned, and also followed him out, “Gege* you didn’t take the soap!” 

*Gege (哥哥) : Older brother 

Chu Qiao chuckled, these two brothers were really sensible, and it was easy to reason with them.

Unlike Gu Wen, that little beast, he was always deliberately going against her.

When she said east, he would go to west. He was truly an immature white-eyed wolf. 

*White-eyed wolf (白眼狼) bái yǎn lánɡ : someone who is incapable of expressing gratefulness and appreciation and even bites the hand that feeds him.

Gu Ye looked at them happily, there was a strange feeling in his heart. 

It was very warm, and also very soothing. He just felt that this home finally felt like home. 

What the veterans said was really right, home wouldn’t feel like home if there was no woman in the family. 

“You also have to go wash your hands. We as adults have to lead by example in order to set a good model for the children. Hurry up and wash your hands!” 

Chu Qiao glared, and laughed at his silly look. 

“Yes, I’ll wash my hands.” 

Gu Ye booed his head vigorously, what his wife said was definitely right. 

As soon as she finished speaking, this guy ran out of sight. 

Chu Qiao watched with amusement, felt like she was taking care of three children, but she wasn’t tired at all, and found it particularly interesting. 

The Zhou Dabao brothers rubbed the soap several times in the water room, and even smelled each other’s hands. 

“Gege, your hands smell good.” Xiaobao said solemnly. 

“Yours also, let’s go home and eat.” 

Zhou Dabao sniffed his younger brother’s hand vigorously, the fragrance overwhelmed his nose.

He smiled with satisfaction and took his younger brother’s hand, preparing to go home. 

With so much delicious food, they could finally share a full meal tonight. 

“Gege, I like the beautiful auntie.” Xiaobao whispered.

His big eyes were shining, beautiful auntie was so powerful today. It was a pleasure to see Gu Wen to be taught a lesson like that. 

“I also like her, we will listen to auntie from now on.”  

Zhou Dabao reminded his younger brother.
