Deserted Wife's Extraordinary Life

2There were many good things in Shanghai, and in times of difficulties, before foreign goods even flowed into China, Shanghai's manufacturing was just a synonym for noble luxury, and the people of the country knew it.    

    

From tasty white rabbit candy, to skincare products, to Shanghai watches, permanent bikes, which is not the ordinary life of the pursuit of luxury and delicacy.    

    

Shanghai is like a modern girl, every frown and smile, full of enchanting charm, attracting people's attention. So, in this fashionable city, even Kang Ying felt bad that she didn't have to buy something to bring back.    

    

After Shi Jiangyuan and Kang Ying packed their luggage, they put everything they had into their luggage and then went to the street to buy local specialties.    

    

Due to the impending festival, they brought more snacks, white rabbit milk candy, Shanghai's lark. Although they now had higher grade imported face cream, this kind of practical snow cream was still very popular among the common folk. They rubbed it on their hands in winter.    

    

Of course, the two still bought most of the food. Amongst the items that Kang Ying had bought, there was a portion of it that she had brought over for her friends and relatives from Lu County, like Guan Xiao and Cui Xiuxian's family.    

    

So this is how it is to go out, except that the suitcase is too small.    

    

However, Kang Ying suddenly smiled at Shi Jiangyuan and said, "I'm so silly. If we drag these things back to the capital, and then drag the Lu County back from the capital, I can just directly buy them some local specialties from the capital."    

    

Shi Jiangyuan laughed and said, "You are not stupid. You are good to them. You can't help but want to bring something for them."    

    

Kang Ying didn't expect Shi Jiangyuan to understand her so well. She quickly nodded and said, "That's true."    

    

Then Kang Ying stopped struggling. She packed her things and put them in her luggage. She was tired, but when she thought of the happy expressions on everyone's faces when they received the gifts, her mood also surged with joy.    

    

Strangely, every time Shi Jiangyuan went out, he felt a change in time and place. He didn't feel anything special about him leaving after he was done.    

    

But now that Kang Ying was carefully buying the local specialties, she felt a wave of softness in her heart as she thought about what her friends and family liked to eat and what she should buy.    

    

Kang Ying was so kind and beautiful, and in his heart, she was synonymous with the most perfect woman. Shi Jiangyuan didn't expect Kang Ying to be a divorced woman at all.    

    

Looking at Kang Ying's slim figure, he couldn't help but cough dryly. Feeling a little embarrassed, he rushed to the bathroom, turned on the tap and splashed cold water on his face.    

    

The cold water instantly dispelled the heat in his body.    

    

When Shi Jiangyuan walked out of the living room, Kang Ying noticed the water stains on his temples and asked curiously,    

    

"Why did you go wash your face?" Cold water? I didn't hear you turn on the water heater! Washing cold water in the middle of winter, be careful of your joints getting sore later on. You won't be able to take care of it when you're young, but you'll be at a disadvantage when you're old. "    

    

This tone made Shi Jiangyuan laugh uncontrollably, "If I don't look at you, just from your words, and with your eyes closed, I would have thought you were an old lady in her forties or fifties.    

    

I feel that only my mother's generation would pay so much attention to health and recuperation. "    

    

Kang Ying's expression changed when she heard Shi Jiangyuan's words. Shi Jiangyuan suddenly felt as if an invisible barrier had appeared between them.    

    

Shi Jiangyuan felt as if he had said something wrong. He scratched his head and coughed loudly, as if his cough could shatter the barrier's membrane.    

    

"I was just joking with you. Of course I have to take care of my life. My mom is a doctor, so she pays the most attention to this.    

    

Actually, I felt very close to you when I heard what you just said, just like my mother. "    

    

Oh, he said the wrong thing again.    

    

Kang Ying said with a smile or not, "Yes, I'm the same as your mother. You'll have to listen to me from now on."    

    

No matter how stupid Shi Jiangyuan was, he understood how to compare Kang Ying to his mother. He chuckled and said:    

    

"Don't you think I don't know how to speak?"    

    

"With this bit of self-awareness, it can still be saved." Kang Ying's expression softened. "Then I'll punish you to prepare dinner."    

    

"Okay, what should we do? What's for dinner? " Shi Jiangyuan said.    

    

"Eat all the leftovers in the fridge, it's a pity to throw them away. Tomorrow morning, we'll go to the airport for breakfast." Kang Ying arranged it.    

    

"Okay, let me see what else is in the fridge." As Shi Jiangyuan said that, he walked to the refrigerator in the kitchen and opened it to check.    

    

Their Shanghai house had already been purchased with all their furniture and appliances. If they had a big red word affixed to it, it would have been the home of a newlywed couple.    

    

Shi Jiangyuan opened the refrigerator and found some fish balls, beef slices, tofu, and fans. His eyes lit up as he smiled and said:    

    

"Isn't this eating hotpot the perfect moment? Shall we have hot pot? "    

    

"Sure, it's best to eat hotpot during this kind of weather." Kang Ying was also interested. "What do we do without a fire boiler?"    

    

"Use the electric cooker!" Shi Jiangyuan immediately thought of something, "I'm going downstairs to the supermarket to buy some bones to cook. Now I can wash all kinds of vegetables, I'll be able to eat them in an hour."    

    

"Alright. "Let's go together." Kang Ying said.    

    

The convenience of living in the city was apparent at this moment. It was still quite late at night when he needed to buy vegetables.    

    

In a big city like Shanghai, there was naturally a supermarket. The residential area downstairs had one in front of it, and the scale was quite large.    

    

Therefore, Shi Jiangyuan and Kang Ying went downstairs together, wrapped up tightly and headed to the supermarket to buy groceries.    

    

Of course, there were vegetables in the hotpot. Kang Ying also bought a cabbage, Shanghai Qing, Sea Tyrant Fish Ball, Meatball and so on.    

    

However, there was no pork at this point, so naturally, there was no bones. Thus, he bought the whole chicken. It was also good to boil the chicken soup to make the base.    

    

Director Lin bought a lot of them. Kang Ying asked, "Can you finish them all?"    

    

"Don't worry, I'm hungry." Shi Jiangyuan patted his stomach, "I can definitely finish it by cooking a trash can."    

    

Kang Ying laughed. "It's about eating delicious food, not making you make garbage cans. Stop it, don't buy it. "    

    

Shi Jiangyuan then took the shopping basket to the exit to pay the bill.    

    

The two of them took their things and headed home. As it was dinner time, the whole neighborhood was quiet for a while.    

    

The two walked slowly. When Shi Jiangyuan got home, he took out a bag of bread and said to Kang Ying, "Eat some bread first. Don't get hungry. I think you're a bit nervous."    

    

Kang Ying's heart warmed. "Alright, you have one too. Let's not be hungry."    

    

It was indeed rather late to prepare the hotpot now. It would take at least an hour and a half to eat, so they could only eat supper together with the supper. It would be good to fill their stomachs first, but Kang Ying didn't expect Shi Jiangyuan to remember it.
