Chapter 366: Jiang Cheng, I've Caught You

The woman who he thought was asleep now lifted her small face and gave him a brilliant smile, then reached out and grabbed him.

"Jiang Cheng, I've caught you!"

At this moment, a small section of her white, lotus-root-like arm was exposed, appearing especially distinct in the dark night.

It was grabbed by Jiang Cheng in one go.

It was the first time he had seen a sheep catch a wolf.

"You..."

The rest of Si Rong's words were completely swallowed by Jiang Cheng under the moonlight.

It was as fierce as a sudden storm.

Once the kiss ended, the two lay on the bed, their two hearts beating together with a thumping sound.

In the dead of the silent night, they suffered from insomnia together, or kissed.

It wasn't until dawn that they drifted off into a hazy sleep.

However, due to his long-term daily routine, he still woke up on time, though he held his breath, worried about waking Si Rong.

Consequently, as soon as Jiang Yu left his room, he saw his brother tiptoeing out of the guest room where his sister-in-law was sleeping, and his eyes widened instantly.

His brother had actually snuck into his sister-in-law's room in the middle of the night?

Even though they were engaged, this was just too explosive!

Could it be that he was going to be an uncle soon?

He couldn't help but straighten his posture; elders had to look like elders.

At the dining table, Hu Qian asked suspiciously, "Why hasn't Rongrong come to eat yet? Is she not feeling well?"

"She didn't sleep well last night, so let's eat first and let her sleep a bit longer. I'll make her food when she wakes up."

Jiang Cheng didn't forget to remind his father, "Right, don't smack your lips while you eat, so you don't wake her up."

Jiang Aiguo:...

"Right," Hu Qian agreed deeply, slapping the man on his butt, "Keep it down while you eat."

"Okay." Jiang Aiguo was willing to listen to his wife; having his butt slapped by her was actually quite romantic.

Just like that, Si Rong slept until noon.

She stretched, and the scent of food drifted in from outside the door.

"Get up and wash up, I made braised fish for you."

Jiang Cheng was wearing an apron, looking every bit the virtuous husband.

Si Rong felt a bit embarrassed, "I'll cook tonight!"

Although she wasn't skilled at cooking, it was embarrassing to always let the Jiang Family serve her meals.

"You can cook?" Jiang Cheng raised an eyebrow, seemingly a bit skeptical.

Si Rong gave a light huff, "Who are you looking down on!"

Even if she hadn't eaten pork, hadn't she seen a pig run?

She had watched Wang Ma cook since she was little; it was just washing the ingredients, putting them in the pot, and then they were ready to eat.

It didn't seem difficult at all.

However, to be absolutely sure, she decided to go back to her maiden home at noon first to cook for her parents and two brothers.

It could also be considered a display of her filial piety.

The braised carp Jiang Cheng made was quite good, and he had even removed the fish bones in advance.

After finishing the meal, Si Rong returned to the Si Family with Jiang Cheng.

Hearing that she wanted to cook in person, a look of distress flashed across the face of her second brother, Si Han.

"Uh, I have something to do in a bit, you guys stay at home..."

"What is it?" Si Rong grabbed him, "I'm about to get married, and I want to come home to cook a meal for my brother. Does my brother not even have time to taste it?"

"I'll eat!" Si Han gritted his teeth and agreed, "Nothing can stop me from tasting the delicious food my little sister makes."

Her eldest brother, Si Yan, nodded as well, "Big brother is waiting to taste it too. What dish are you planning to make?"

"It's best to keep it simple so you don't get tired."

Si Rong had come back wanting to challenge something difficult, "I'm going to make braised pork ribs."

Jiang Cheng said that braising just meant adding soy sauce; she could do that.

Si Han:...

He rubbed his nose; forget it, he would just go for it.

Originally, Si Han liked eating fried eggs very much, but one day a few years ago, his little sister had a whim and made him a fried egg.

How should he put it? When he saw the stuff in the pot at that time, his first reaction was that Wangcai had come inside and had diarrhea.

To this day, he still doesn't eat fried eggs.

But ribs should be better; at least there wouldn't be anything runny.

Father Si looked at Mother Si and complained in a whisper, "Rongrong wants to cook!"

"Aren't you going to talk her out of it?"

Mother Si:...

"It's a good thing for our daughter to want to learn to cook. Before, when she married Shen Lan, I was afraid she would suffer, so I wanted Wang Ma to go with her. Now that she's married into the Jiang Family and has people protecting her, it's better not to have Wang Ma follow. Besides, her husband is a soldier, and having servants in the house will eventually give people something to gossip about."

"It's a good thing for our daughter to want to learn to cook."

After saying this, Mother Si stood up, "Right, I made an appointment with my sister a while ago to go home today to see our mother. You just stay home and entertain our daughter and son-in-law well this noon."

Father Si:...

At noon, Si Rong was in charge of the cooking, and Jiang Cheng helped her out.

As for the eldest brother, the second brother, and Father Si, they were all waiting outside the kitchen, filled with worry.

"Why did Mom have to go back to her maiden home today?" Si Han questioned, "Is she trying to avoid something?"

A plate of braised pork ribs; if there was one more person, he would get one less piece.

It wasn't that he looked down on his little sister's cooking; he simply didn't like eating pork ribs, let it be known.

"You child! How are you talking?" Father Si was someone who habitually protected his wife, and he gave his second son a smack on the head, "Your mother isn't that kind of person; she really has something to do. Before she left just now, she instructed me that today, we are all responsible for eating all the food your little sister makes, and additionally, we must focus on observing Jiang Cheng's reaction."

Si Han:...

The time spent waiting for the braised pork ribs was long; before that, Si Han first smelled a familiar burnt odor, and a bad feeling rose in his heart.

Very soon, the meal was ready.

The men of the Si Family looked at the large basin of black, charred stuff on the table, unable to believe that it was actually pork ribs.

Jiang Cheng was also uncharacteristically silent.

"I followed exactly what you said," Si Rong whispered beside him, "Hurry and taste it, how is the flavor? Maybe it just doesn't look good."

"You have a point," Jiang Cheng took the lead and picked up a piece to taste.

The three men of the Si Family followed closely behind, but their eyes were fixed tightly on Jiang Cheng.

It seemed they wanted to observe whether he had any problems after eating it.

Jiang Cheng ate it without changing his expression; to tell the truth, he had an iron stomach, having been trained by Hu Qian since he was young.

One bite in, he couldn't really taste the flavor, but his lips were stained black.

He nodded, expressing his affirmation, "These ribs, Rongrong, you made them, they are very chewy."

Si Han:...

His favorability toward this brother-in-law in his heart increased quite a bit.

What a good young man!

He can really endure hardship.

"Second Brother, hurry and eat!" Si Rong picked up two more pieces for him.

Si Han had originally thought that since Jiang Cheng ate it so easily, the taste should be alright.

So he put it into his mouth as usual; ugh, if these ribs hadn't been made by his only biological little sister, he would definitely have slammed this plate of ribs onto that person's face.

What a vicious braised pork rib!

"How is it?" Si Rong looked at him with a face full of anticipation.

Si Han forced himself to swallow the pork rib, "Not bad, it really is not bad. You are already engaged to Jiang Cheng, so you are considered a member of the Jiang Family. You should cook when you need to in the future, do you understand?"

"Mm, I'll make it tonight."
