Chapter 325: New Year's Day
It's the end of the month in a blink of an eye, and tomorrow is New Year's Day, but because the first recruit assessment and reconnaissance battalion selection competition will be ushered in after New Year's Day, Gu Zhengqin and Shen Cong have been training until Shen Hui comes back.
The temperature has dropped to more than ten degrees below zero, Shen Hui handed the meat she bought for the festival to the two of them, and quickly retracted her hand into her sleeve, and the three of them walked wildly with their heads covered, but unfortunately there was no one in the house for a day, the stove had long been extinguished, and the house was cold.
Fortunately, Shen Hui had already prepared paper, firewood and honeycomb coal in the house, and after a while, the stove was lit, and the house gradually warmed up.
Shen Hui saw that Gu Zhengqin and Shen Cong's coats were wet, so she quickly asked the two of them to change their clothes and sit in front of the stove, thinking that three or four of them had disappeared before dinner, and they had been training for several hours, and they should be hungry at this time.
It just so happened that there were a lot of frozen steamed buns at home, and after taking them back and melting them, they were grilled in the pot, and two slices of fresh meat were also grilled, sprinkled with salt, smeared with spicy sauce, and sandwiched between the buns for them to eat first, and she used a small pot to make a hot tomato and egg soup.
Fortunately, tomorrow is New Year's Day, Shen Hui doesn't have to go to the city, after eating, she saw Gu Zhengqin and Shen Cong sitting and talking, she asked Gu Zhengqin to chop the pork ribs she bought, stew the ribs tomorrow, and handed the chicken, duck and fish meat and seasonings to Shen Cong, and asked him to help marinate them, these are also cooked tomorrow.
Shen Hui herself went back to the bedroom to pack the package she brought back, and when she was free in the afternoon, she went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy two sets of autumn clothes and pants for the two men at home.
She put her clothes in the closet first, planning to take them out after breakfast tomorrow.
In the end, there was still a piece of clothing left in the package, which Shen Hui had treated herself, a big red cotton coat, which was long and covered her buttocks. And the cotton clothes on her body were still his father Shen Dahai took over a private job in the winter of the previous year, and after the family had a little surplus, Cheng Xiangqin specially made it for the sisters and brothers, and it was new, but it looked very dirty when walking in the city, and Shen Hui also loved beauty, so she bought one for herself during the holidays.
Well, put this one away and upload it to the two of them tomorrow morning.
Looking at the full wardrobe, Shen Hui felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart, thinking that when she first came, she couldn't fill up a quilt cabinet, and in the blink of an eye, a year later, their cabinet was full, and there were more and more things at home, which was more humane and more like a home than when she first came.

Accustomed to getting up early, Shen Hui woke up early the next day, and she didn't feel sleepy, so she simply got up. It snowed all night last night, and the yard was white, and it was easy to get dizzy after watching it for a long time.
As soon as she got out of the bed, she felt so cold, she hurriedly went out to get the fire that was about to go out, and boiled hot water on the stove to wash her face later.
At this time, Gu Zhengqin and Shen Cong also got up, and Shen Hui hurriedly poured the hot water into the basin, otherwise the two of them would definitely wash with cold water, and find a reason to say that they were sober and sober.
There is no need to go out for morning exercise today, but after washing, the two of them still put on cotton coats and went out for a run, which is a habit that Gu Zhengqin has insisted on since he was wrong, and now it has also been 'infected' to Shen Cong. Before leaving, the two were ordered to sweep the snow from the oven outside, and by the way, get the stove on.
Shen Hui hurriedly made breakfast again, so that the two who came back from running in the air conditioner could have some hot meals.
The morning meal is simple, cook some millet and red date porridge and top it with a steamer, steamed bun and salted egg.
She can't eat steamed buns without side dishes, there is half a leftover Chinese cabbage in the vegetable basket next to her, cut into shreds and fried vinegared cabbage, her eyes swept over a few vegetable jars under the table, and she remembered that the pickles pickled in summer had not yet opened the jar.
I took clean and dry chopsticks and plates, and squatted under the table to pick up some pickled cucumbers. Pickled cucumbers are put with sugar and vinegar, sweet and sour, and eaten appetizing. You don't need to make it, you can cut it into small cloves and mix it with sesame oil and serve it on the table.
Just a vinegared cabbage shredded without frying, the two of them haven't come back yet, she flipped over the pork ribs, chicken, duck and fish meat that had been marinated overnight, and it was already delicious, and the pink meat was dyed with the brown of soy sauce.
The roast chicken and duck at home are long gone, she specially bought more, and when she is not at home, the two guys who can't cook will not have nothing to eat. Except for one chicken braised chicken, the rest of the chicken, duck and fish were all carried and hung in the red oven.
"Shen Hui, have you gotten up?"
As soon as he closed the door of the furnace and was about to go back to warm up, Sister-in-law Qi came, followed by Company Commander Gong, both of whom were carrying a string of chickens, ducks and fish in their hands.
"Get up, sister-in-law, Company Commander Gong, Happy New Year!" Shen Hui saw this, stopping the sheath that was about to slip up.
"Happy New Year, Happy New Year!" Sister-in-law Qi said with a smile, "Ouch, I came just in time, I don't have to wait, give me the hook!"
"Have you brushed honey?" asked Shen Hui.
"I brushed it, and I put some ginger and soaked soft bay leaves in it, and this time the pickling time was a little shorter. Sister-in-law Qi said.
After hanging up the chicken, duck and fish, Shen Hui asked the two of them to come in and sit for a while, and by the way, they had breakfast at home, but they were rejected by Sister-in-law Qi, the meal at home was ready, and Xiao Lei was eating.
Seeing off the two sisters-in-law Qi, Shen Hui hurriedly ran into the hall and sat in front of the stove, and it took a while to warm up.
After the family of three finished eating, Gu Zhengqin took the initiative to wash the pots and dishes, Shen Cong, who had not robbed it, simply hugged his sister's arm and knocked the melon seeds, Shen Hui was speechless, this guy is now the same as Gu Zhengqin, and he pretended to be a cold posture that refused people 108,000 miles away, and he showed his true face as soon as he arrived in front of her.
After Gu Zhengqin's few knife eyes, Shen Cong pouted and sat up straight, and Shen Hui saw that her husband had finished washing his hands and took the opportunity to get out of the bedroom and take out the clothes he bought for the two of them.
"This is Gu Zhengqin yours, this is Shen Cong yours, this is the vest, one for each person, do you like it?" Shen Hui looked at the two expectantly.
"I like it!" Gu Zhengqin raised his head and looked at his daughter-in-law, why should he be the same color as Shen Cong's guy!
"Sister, why don't you buy me another color, I don't want to wear the same color with my brother-in-law, and this vest is too, I wear it all too much, you won't buy it all for my brother-in-law, and give me one when I see that I am pitiful, right?" Shen Cong muttered, no wonder he doubted, it was just right for every piece of clothing to be worn on his brother-in-law.
"You little conscienceless, you are half a head shorter than your brother-in-law, and yours are all one size smaller!" Shen Hui raised his hand and gave him a burst of chestnut, calling you conscienceless!
"Hee-hee, I tease my sister, who let my sister only look at my brother-in-law and not look at me!"
Shen Cong flattened his mouth and looked at his sister with resentment, he was only sixteen years old, he was still a young boy, and he needed the care of his family, so he begged his sister to come over with some eyes.
"Ahem, what are you talking about!, I can't come one by one!" Shen Hui gritted his teeth and flattened the vest for him, "I specially bought a large size for this vest, don't you think you have eaten well recently, you have grown taller than when you first came, and it will be just right in a few days." ”
"Thank you, sister!" Shen Cong reached out and hugged his sister.
