Chapter 19: A Package from Peace of Mind
Mrs. Zhao and Mr. Zhao were so happy after receiving Anxin's gift that they couldn't keep their mouths together, and when they saw that Zhao Yong also had a gift, they praised Anxin as a good boy with a heart, and they didn't have any suspicion at all, so they told Anxin Zhao Yong's address.
After Anxin inquired about Zhao Yong's address from Mrs. Zhao, he planned to send the newly bought gift to Zhao Yong.
After thinking about it, I was afraid that Zhao Yong would not be able to eat in the school cafeteria, and now that it was autumn and the weather was cold, I planned to make something that was not easy to spoil and send it to him.
I walked around the market and came back and bought some small dried fish and chicken feet. I plan to make Zhao Yong some spicy dried fish and pickled pepper phoenix feet. Pickled pepper phoenix claws are very simple to make, phoenix feet, lettuce, onions are washed and set aside, phoenix claws are boiled in boiling water until they are broken (not boiled for too long, otherwise the soaked phoenix claws are soft and not delicious), drain the water, cut it in half with a knife, put it in a clean and oil-free pickle jar, and pour in an appropriate amount of pickled pepper (if you like spicy, you can put a little more, and if you don't like spicy, you can put a little less.) ), Sichuan pepper, then add lettuce strips and onion slices, add cold salt and boiling water to submerge the phoenix feet. Put it in a cool place and let it sit for two or three days.
Soak the dried fish in vinegared water for an hour, then wash and dry, mince the green onions, ginger and garlic for later use, cut the dried chili peppers, wash the pepper granules, and wash the peanuts for later use. Add an appropriate amount of oil to the pot and heat it, add the small fish and fry it slowly over medium heat until the small fish is golden brown, remove the dry oil; Pour out the excess oil in the pot and leave a little oil to heat, pour the green onion, ginger, garlic, dried chili pepper, pepper and peanuts into the stir-fry until fragrant, add the bean paste and fry the red oil (those who like soy sauce or vinegar can also add an appropriate amount of soy sauce or vinegar), pour in the dried fish and stir-fry until the small fish is evenly hung with red ingredients, and add an appropriate amount of salt to taste. Let it cool and marinate for a few days before serving.
Considering that Zhao Yong is near City B, where the temperature is low, things can withstand and be put away, and everything is full of peace of mind. When the pickled pepper and phoenix feet were almost soaked, Anxin went to buy two big sealed jars to seal the pickled pepper and phoenix feet and spicy fish. I went to the photo studio in the town again to pick up the photos taken a few days ago and took a version of the headpost. Together with the newly bought shoes and a written letter, they were sent to Zhao Yong.
The days of the military school are boring and boring, day after day with classes, meals, lunch breaks, classes, training, eating, sleeping. In the past, Zhao Yong felt that there was nothing wrong with such a day, it was very fulfilling, and a man should live such a life.
But the last few days have been more fulfilling, but they feel like they've been a lot longer. Especially on Friday, I always feel that all the classes and training have become slow, and I really hope that I can get my phone to see the photos of my sister on my phone to spend the weekend soon. In Zhao Yong's mind, Anxin's appearance was clear and blurry, as if he closed his eyes, Anxin was in front of him, but when he wanted to take a closer look, he couldn't see clearly.
Finally survived Friday, Zhao Yong just returned to the dormitory, and was about to change into civilian clothes to get his mobile phone, when the captain on duty came.
"Zhao Yong, Zhao Yong, come and pick it up, heh-good guy, what is your family sending you! It's so heavy, but I'm tired! Fragile items are also marked and handled with care. "The captain on duty feels that his luck is really beeping a dog today, yesterday others were on duty, and all they went to get were letters or something, and today they are on duty, and there are five or six special packages, and Zhao Yong's package is still sinking like a stone.
"Yo, there's a package, Team Zhang, thank you!" Zhao Yong hurriedly took the package, intending to throw it on the ground like this.
The captain on duty saw his posture and hurriedly shouted: "You lighten it, wrap the fragile items on the mark, you can put it away." β
Zhao Yong stopped the posture he was about to throw on the ground, and gently put it on the bed, he was also curious about what his mother sent him, and fragile items, didn't he send some sweaters and pants at this time in previous years.
After a closer look, I was so happy that it turned out to be a package sent by Anxin. Hurriedly opening the package, the first thing that catches my eye is the golden red spicy dried fish and the white green pickled pepper phoenix feet.
The rake is a foodie, and if you have anything to eat, you should never try to hide it from his eyes. Zhao Yong had just opened the package when he saw it: "Yo, Brother Yong~ Auntie sent you food, hurry up!" Let's have a taste! β
"you, what auntie, my daughter-in-law sent it to me." Zhao Yong looked at the other items carefully, and didn't want to look at the rake.
The rake "swished", rushed over to pick up the pickled pepper chicken feet and opened, and several other wolves in the dormitory also shouted to eat.
Zhao Yong still didn't know the temper of these people, and knew that he couldn't keep the food today, so he hurriedly shouted: "Leave me some!" β
Everyone laughed and didn't answer him.
A few wolves opened pickled pepper chicken feet and spicy dried fish, placed them in the center of the bedroom, and sat cross-legged around to eat. We chatted energetically while eating.
"Yo, look, Zhao Yong reads the letter! What do you say is written in this letter? β
"What else can I write, didn't that girl say that it was a package sent by her daughter-in-law! Hey~"
"Brother Yong~People miss you~~" The rake blinked and pinched his orchid finger to push Liu Yinglong's chest, snorting coquettishly. Everyone present was full of goosebumps. Liu Yinglong shuddered even more.
"Rake, you give me a dead door, can you eat well, you come back specially, the old men won't let you eat." Liu Yinglong slapped away the hand that the rake pushed on him.
"Roll out~ rob me of food, that's a mortal enemy. But then again, the food sent by Zhao Yong's daughter-in-law is very delicious, whether it was bought or made. β
"Buy it, how many of the girls now can make food. Zhao Yong's daughter-in-law, you have also seen the photo, she looks very good, I don't believe that there can still be a girl who can go up to the hall and go down to the kitchen. β
"Yo Yo Yo ~~ Why is it so sour, in case people can really go up to the hall and down to the kitchen!"
"Sneer~ Zhao Yong's daughter-in-law can look at him like this, I am depressed and hit the wall, we are handsome and chic, suave, you want to see me like this! If that girl still cooks so delicious, how can you balance my heart! β
"That's it, Lao Tzu is much more handsome than Zhao Yong, and I will find a beautiful and virtuous girl in the future! Ha ha! β
β¦β¦
A group of people just bragged around two jars of food, from Zhao Yong's daughter-in-law to what kind of person she was in high school, how tender and green the girl in high school was, and how she once had a very silly and naΓ―ve love, while telling Zhao Yong that his daughter-in-law was good and should be cherished (Zhao Yong: Of course my daughter-in-law is the best!) οΌβ¦β¦ Unconsciously, the one-month snacks that Anxin prepared for Zhao Yong came to the bottom in such a night.
And the trivial things that Anxin told Zhao Yong have gradually been forgotten in the chat, only the phone number left by Anxin and the sentence "I love you" became clearer in his mind.
