Chapter 286: Chapter 286: Petty
“Beautiful, you are really blessed!”
The coworkers gave him a thumbs-up; they truly hadn’t expected Jiang Changhai, a man from the countryside, to have married such a pretty and graceful wife.
They had seen women from the countryside before, and because of working in the fields for the long term, combined with poor diet and clothing, most of them look haggard and behave crudely.
Compared with Jiang Changhai’s wife, they were like heaven and earth apart, and she even looked more beautiful and had more grace than many of the city women.
“Hello, everyone, I’m Jiang Changhai’s wife. He told me that all of you take good care of him usually. I really appreciate it,” Su Wanyu greeted Jiang Changhai’s coworkers with ease and grace.
“No, no need to thank us, sister-in-law, this is all as it should be; just as one relies on parents at home, outside one seeks help from friends. Changhai has also helped us a lot,” they replied.
“Yes, sister-in-law, you’re too polite. It’s almost time for dinner, let Changhai take you to get some food,” said the team leader of the logistics department.
“Right, wife, I’ll take you to our canteen,” Jiang Changhai took a step forward, blocking his coworkers’ view of his wife.
His wife was beautiful, and it was okay to show her off a bit, so they knew, but he didn’t want them looking at her all the time, Jiang Changhai thought with a bit of possessiveness.
Su Wanyu noticed Jiang Changhai’s subtle move, and she secretly pursed her lips and chuckled. Then she said, “Then we’ll get going first.”
The workers waited until the couple had walked a distance before they started whispering, looking at Su Wanyu’s retreating figure.
“I really didn’t expect it, this lad Jiang Changhai is so lucky, marrying a wife who speaks so softly and gently, just like a delicate lady of a good family,” they said.
“Yeah, she speaks so appropriately and is so generous, really makes one envious.”
“I’m telling you, it’s also because Jiang Changhai himself is impressive, having nurtured his wife so well. Look at other rural young wives, none of them have her delicate skin and tender flesh.”
Jiang Changhai didn’t hear his coworkers’ discussion; he was even more proudly pleased with himself.
On the way, when he ran into people he knew, he greeted them with a smile and introduced his wife.
When people learned that the beauty beside him was his wife, they all showed expressions of surprise and admiration, which greatly satisfied Jiang Changhai’s male vanity.
Upon arriving at the canteen, Jiang Changhai borrowed a lunchbox from a coworker with whom he had a good relationship.
“Wife, use my lunchbox, I’ll use my coworker’s,” said Jiang Changhai as he handed his own lunchbox to Su Wanyu.
“Okay,” Su Wanyu took the lunchbox and followed Jiang Changhai to line up.
“What is the canteen having for today?” Su Wanyu asked quietly.
Jiang Changhai, “I don’t know, but there will definitely be meat for sure; our canteen has meat dishes every day.”
Just at that moment, a worker who had just gotten his food passed by and both of them peeked into his lunchbox.
“It’s braised pork with preserved mustard greens, my favorite,” said Su Wanyu with a look of surprise and unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
“I’ll get more in a bit, and you can have it all,” Jiang Changhai said indulgently, seeing her greedy look.
“Great, Brother Hai is the best,” Su Wanyu smiled lightly with pursed lips.
After getting their food, the couple found a quiet corner to sit down, and Jiang Changhai transferred most of the pork from his lunchbox into Su Wanyu’s.
“This is enough for me, Brother Hai, you eat too. Wow, the food here is really good. It would be nice to eat here every day,” Su Wanyu said happily as she ate the meat, beginning to dream about a happy and beautiful future.
