The two of them came up with a way to make a hanging stick in the stove, and put the meat on top of it, the weather was cold and smoky, and it should be able to be kept for a while longer.

Li Mingjin and Li Shenzhou looked at the hanging meat and smiled slightly.

"You've done a good job, it's better to hang here than under the eaves. ”

"Thank you, Chief, for the compliment. ”

"Thank you, Chief, for the compliment. ”

Tan Yongguo and Ye Xinguo looked at each other and smiled, and began to make lunch.

Li Shenzhou took a pen and paper, sat down with Li Mingjin and talked, "Dad, how many people are coming tomorrow? You give a specific number, and I will conveniently stipulate the amount of dishes and rice here." ”

"This is a problem, there are three families of the commanders of the first division, three families of the commanders of the second division, and two families of the commanders of the third division; this can sit at one table, plus two of the first division and one brigade, two of the second division and two brigades, and three of the staff officers of the military headquarters. There are four of us in the family, so let's cook for fifteen people first!"

After Li Mingjin finished speaking, Li Shenzhou's menu was also written, and the number of meals was written in a larger way; the people who came were basically men, and the soldiers had a large amount of food, so they would rather have leftovers than be embarrassed without food.

Li Mingjin thought for a while and said: "Girl, the amount of food can be appropriately reduced; Xu Jianjun and his family don't know if they will come, the first division of Bai Ai's party will definitely come, and the third is Wen Guojun, Xu Jianjun's master is a little uncertain." ”

"Okay, Daddy, I see. Li Shenzhou nodded, and handed the prepared menu to Tan Yongguo, "Tan Yongguo, there is only so much meat and vegetables tomorrow, you can't make all rice, half of it will be rice, and half of it will be gnocchi soup." When the time comes, whatever they eat, although our family has a lot of food, we can't show our wealth too much, and we will find people to be jealous. ”

"Okay, listen to the sinking boat. As soon as Tan Yongguo finished speaking, he always felt that this sentence was a little familiar, and when he took the list and went back to watch it with Ye Xinguo, he remembered that this was not what the division commander put on his lips!

Tan Yongguo also moved closer to Li Mingjin unconsciously.

In order to make the next day's meal on time, Tan Yongguo and Ye Xinguo cut the vegetables in the afternoon and half a day, took three large pieces of meat and put them in the pot to cook; tomorrow, as long as it is hot, they can cut it and put it on the table.

The dishes on the menu are basically ready, but there is one thing that they won't do.

Tan Yongguo could only take the list to find Li Shenzhou, "Shenzhou, we won't do the meat deduction, what can we do?"

"Put it in a large bowl, put the sauerkraut at the bottom of the bowl, put the three-line meat slices on top, pour soybean oil, oil and salt and other seasonings, make four bowls, and put it in the steamer to steam. Li Shenzhou dictated it.

Tan Yongguo probably knew what was going on, "I'll try." ”

Tan Yongguo re-entered the stove room, and made a mess with Ye Xinguo in the stove room, and finally made a decent bowl of button pork, and at night they ate button meat, stewed meat, and fried two side dishes.

The next day, when the sky gradually turned white, Li Shenzhou crawled out of the bed; after dressing and freshening up, he ran in the yard to warm up; and then boxed and practiced.

After exercising, people sweat, but their bodies are comfortable.

In the stove room, Tan Yongguo and Ye Xinguo were already busy.

Li Shenzhou changed into the ordinary clothes she bought, and put the treasure clothes into the space; now she wears ordinary clothes except when she goes up the mountain.

In the family area, there are two guards living in the house, and if she often doesn't wash her clothes, it will arouse suspicion, and she basically washes them every day after wearing ordinary clothes, which makes Tan Yongguo and Ye Xinguo embarrassed to be sloppy, and they also follow her to take a bath, wash their hair and wash their clothes every day.

Li Mingjin was very satisfied with this phenomenon, although he didn't say anything, but he saw it in his eyes and agreed with it in his heart.

This is a habit he has developed since he was a child, and their family Zhouzhou has not taught her much since she was a child, but many habits are in line with the Li family's generation.

At ten o'clock, Li Ying arrived with her son Bai Yingjie, and Li Mingjin pushed her daughter out to entertain guests, "Girl, this is the aunt and son of your first teacher, Uncle Bai, just call your aunt and brother." ”

"Auntie, brother of the Bai family, sit inside, it's warmer inside. Li Shenzhou pointed to the hall and generously invited them into the house. The cold wind was blowing outside, if she hadn't cultivated, maybe she would be the same as the aunt in front of her at this time, her cheeks were red, and her ears were also in a red and stiff state.

"The girl is really handsome, when I see you, I know that the old ladies in the family area are not wrong; Li Ying praised it all the time.

Bai Yingjie pulled her mother's arm, "Mother, what are you talking about? Dad asked us to help." ”

"Stinky boy. Li Ying glared at her son, but she didn't intend to attack him, and turned her head and said to Li Shenzhou: "Girl, I don't know what to call you? ”

Li Ying thought that this girl was a biao at first, but she didn't expect that she was a delicate little girl; when she laughed, her smile was standardized, her smile was not toothy, her every move became her own manners, she was generous, not pretentious, and her temperament had surpassed that of most of the ladies. The problem is, this girl is still so young, she is already outstanding, and no matter how old she is, the door of the Li family will have to be broken by those families, right?

Looking at the politeness and courtesy to them, this girl can't be wrong.

"Auntie, my name is Li Shenzhou, if you don't dislike it, you can call me Shenzhou. Sit inside, it's too cold outside to blow cold. Li Shenzhou invited again.

"No need to sit, no need to sit, my family head said that you are the only female relative in Commander Li's family, and I am afraid that you will not be busy, so let me come to help early." Li Ying smiled and shook his head, "Shen Zhou, you take me to the kitchen, and I'll give you a hand." ”

As soon as Li Shenzhou heard this, his heart brightened, "Auntie, you can be busy inside, I started preparing yesterday afternoon, the vegetables and meat have been cut, and everything that needs to be done is done, I don't have anything to do." Just sit and wait for a while for the aunt to eat. ”

When Li Ying heard this, it was not good to say anything to help, "Okay, let's go into the house and sit, and Shen Zhou will talk to me." ”

"Yes, auntie. Li Shenzhou invited the two of them into the hall, asked them to sit down at the table, and poured them a glass of water, "Auntie, the younger brother of the Bai family has a hot water to warm up." ”

"Thank you, Shen Zhou. Li Ying took the water cup, gave one cup to his son, and drank one cup for himself; with the hot water in his stomach, the whole person warmed up, "Shen Zhou, the time you have been in the family area is not too short, why don't you come out and walk around? Everyone doesn't know you very well, only that there is a daughter in Commander Li's family, and they are all curious about you." ”

"Not long after I moved here, I had to be busy cleaning up inside and outside the house, and I didn't have time to walk outside. Li Shenzhou smiled and spoke, not refusing, but taking the initiative to get to know these people in the family area.

This surprised Li Ying.
