Chapter 767 Son-in-law 29
Yuanchun was injured in the hospital that day. Coincidentally, Kang Bingcheng caught a cold and had a fever after being caught in the rain on the day of his divorce. He went to the hospital for treatment and saw Yuanchun.
Yuanchun didn't want to be treated in the hospital, so she shamelessly asked Kang Bingcheng to send her back to the Sheng family.
In this way, Kang Bingcheng came to Sheng's house to visit Yuanchun every few days under the pretext of visiting a sick patient.
Every time I come, I never come empty-handed.
Sometimes he came to buy things, sometimes he brought meat and vegetables from the state-owned restaurants. Every time he came, it was in time for lunch.
Kang Bingcheng was the chef. In that era, state-owned restaurants also cooked in big pots. Dishes such as braised pork, braised fish, and fried meatballs were all cooked in one pot. He could go home after preparing those main dishes in the morning. The rest of the dishes, steamed buns, dumplings, etc. were all done by the second chef and his apprentices.
Kang Bingcheng was born into a family of imperial chefs. All five of his brothers learned to be chefs. Their ancestral cooking skills were much better than their mother Sheng’s wild cooking skills.
Every time Kang Bingcheng came, he would teach Sheng's mother a few tricks, which greatly improved her cooking skills and made the meals she cooked much more delicious than before.
The two chefs had a lot to talk about when they got together, and Sheng's mother often looked at Kang Bingcheng as a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and she liked him more and more.
He has a good family background, good looks, a good job, good character, tall stature, and is willing to spend money on Yuanchun. He is also a second marriage, has no children, and is of the same age as Yuanchun. It can be said that Kang Bingcheng is everything that Sheng's mother wants in a son-in-law.
Mother Sheng smiled and said, "Bingcheng, Yuanchun, you guys chat. The tofu in the pot is ready. I'll go turn off the fire."
When Sheng's mother left, she took her precious granddaughter to the east room and asked the old man to look after her, leaving the young couple with some space to talk in private.
Kang Bingcheng stared at Yuanchun passionately, his voice so gentle that it seemed like water was about to drip out, "Yuanchun, how are you today? Does your chest still hurt?"
"It still hurts a little, but not as bad as it was a few days ago." Yuanchun raised her upper body slightly and moved upwards. Kang Bingcheng hurriedly got up and placed her pillow on the side so that she could sit more comfortably.
Yuanchun said, "I haven't finished the cakes you bought last time. Don't buy them next time. Cakes will dry out and become unpalatable if they are left for too long."
"Then I'll buy you some jujubes next time." "Okay, I haven't eaten them for a long time."
"Then I'll go buy it after I finish my meal."
"Pfft, no need to be so anxious, you can eat a snack anytime."
"I'm anxious, of course I'm anxious. As long as you want to eat something, I want to bring it to you immediately to please you."
Kang Bingcheng did not hide his love for Yuanchun at all.
Yuanchun even teased him, "You are so kind, thoughtful, gentle, and careful, how could Jiang Min be willing to give you up?"
"Hmph, don't mention that crazy woman." Kang Bingcheng became angry when he mentioned her.
The Kang family and the Jiang family are old friends. Kang Bingcheng and Jiang Min are childhood sweethearts who grew up together. When the elders of the two families wanted to arrange a marriage for them, the two had no aversion to each other and got married in a daze.
In the three years after marriage, Jiang Min has always been a gentle, lovely and virtuous wife.
But for three years, Jiang Min's stomach had been still, so she secretly went to the hospital for a check-up by herself. The doctor said that there was nothing wrong with her health, and metaphorically told her to bring her husband to the hospital for a check-up. The couple had been married for three years and had no children, so if there was nothing wrong with the wife, then there must be something wrong with the husband.
Since then, Jiang Min disliked Kang Bingcheng, and her true nature, which had been hidden before, was gradually exposed. She was willful and capricious, and her mouth was vicious and unforgiving. Kang Bingcheng did not tolerate her, and the couple quarreled every other day.
This year, Jiang Min secretly hooked up with a pretty boy at work and divorced Kang Bingcheng.
After the divorce, Jiang Min spread the word that Kang Bingcheng was unable to have children, which made the Kang family so angry that they went to the Jiang family to seek an explanation.
But the Jiang family, who could raise a child like Jiang Min, are not good people either.
