Chapter 79: A Treat
"Do you want to have a next time? There are no doors. Lin Aijun roared, but when he saw the other party's eyes suddenly reddened and aggrieved, he could only hold his anger in his heart, "Next time I take you into the mountain, you are not allowed to act alone." ”
"Hmm." Du Juan lowered her head and answered softly. Although she felt that she was quite aggrieved just now, she also knew that he yelled at her like this, all for her good, so she endured her temper and didn't do anything with him.
But she has reservations about whether she should go into the mountain alone, anyway, after today.
Lin Aijun saw that the other party had a good attitude in admitting his mistakes, so he didn't continue to entangle, but took over the work in Du Juan's hands, "I'll deal with this, you go and work for dinner." ”
"Okay." Du Juan let Lin Aijun deal with those living creatures, but just pointed to the medicinal materials in the basket and said, "I'll keep these for myself." ”
"What is it?" Lin Aijun dragged the bamboo basket and looked inside, all of them were unique medicinal materials in the mountains here, and they were all known to him, "Don't worry, I will deal with these too, I used to follow my father a lot." ”
Du Juan raised her eyebrows, she didn't expect him to concoct medicinal materials, "Then do you know how to make medicine?" "No, it won't even be.
"There will be some simple and must-use, such as hemostatic powder, snake and insect prevention powder. These simple recipes are used in missions. Lin Aijun replied to Du Juan's words while neatly handling the few living creatures in his hand.
Du Juan thought about it, although there is no large-scale war now, there are constant small frictions on the border. Lin Aijun will know this, it must be that Du Defu is afraid that he will have an accident and keep it to save his life.
The two of them had a brief dinner, and before going to bed, they stewed the pheasant and rabbit, so that when they ate it tomorrow, they only had to put it in a pot.
"You seem to be in a good mood today!" Otherwise, why did the man just say a few words to her, and didn't catch her and chatter endlessly.
"Otherwise, how could I spare you so lightly." Lin Aijun teased with a smile.
Du Juan rolled her eyes in the dark night, saying that he was fat and he was really panting.
"The chief talked to me today, and the appointment letter of the captain of the special forces team came down in the afternoon, and I am now the captain of that team." Lin Aijun was excited, he had a lot of ideas. He wants to build his soldiers into a real ace army and make them invincible......
"Congratulations." Du Juan chuckled, "It seems that those rumors are confusing everyone's ability to judge." Otherwise, it wouldn't be your turn. ”
"That's how it should be." Lin Aijun nodded, "Fortunately, I am determined and not confused by rumors." However, there are still some complaints in my heart about the person who came up with such a bad idea, which really hurts everyone.
But. This person who has a bad idea, he didn't get well at this time, and he is being complained about by his daughter-in-law.
"You said you, what kind of bad idea is this, your daughter's reputation is gone, and whoever marries our daughter will be the captain, can this be a joke? How will you let your daughter find a partner in the future? Bai Meiqin pinched the soft flesh on Shui Zhan's waist hard, and she didn't see her relieved.
"This, this. Isn't that already solved? Shui Zhan said flatteringly, "As for our daughter's matter, I will definitely choose carefully, and I will let you look at it first, and then tell our daughter." ”
"Hmph, you think I'll trust you again." Bai Meiqin snorted coldly, "You don't have to worry about your daughter's affairs in the future, I know it in my heart." ”
"Who do you have a crush on?" Shui Zhan asked curiously, "Wouldn't it be that you also like Lin Aijun?" ”
"You ......" Bai Meiqin's full chest bulged one by one. Shui Zhan's eyes narrowed slightly, his mouth pursed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Even if he wants, I still mind if he's a second marriage." Bai Meiqin huffed. "I fell in love with Zhao Dagang in his team, he is not bad looking, his ability is not bad, and he is the same age as our daughter, the most important thing is that I heard that he seems to have broken off relations with his family. I won't go back in the future, so if our daughter marries him, we will be like having an extra son. ”
"Zhao Dagang?" Shui Zhan rubbed his chin, recalling the appearance of the man, and felt that he was okay, so he nodded and said, "I'll talk to him first and ask him if he has a favorite lesbian." ”
"Yes, that's something to ask about that." Bai Meiqin nodded in agreement, "Not only do you have to ask clearly, but you still have to investigate, don't let people cheat you." ”
This matter was boiling over, and finally stopped after Lin Aijun's appointment letter came down. But then came the real intent of the rumor, which made some people want to slap themselves in the face.
For example, Ma Guodong, who is ambitious and wants to take shortcuts, is now sulking alone in the dormitory.
"Damn, those people have nothing to do, how can they select the captain in this way." Ma Guodong smashed a punch on the wooden bed, and it was difficult to understand the hatred in his heart, "Hmph, I want to settle the matter like this, it depends on whether he Ma Guodong agrees or not." ”
"Shui Chaochao, you wait for me, you must belong to me."
Du Juan and Lin Aijun didn't know these things, and the two of them were busy with the next day's warm house dinner.
Early the next morning, Lin Aijun first went to the cooking class to get the various ingredients that had been pre-ordered.
And Du Juan was busy soaking the dry goods brought from her hometown, soaking the water that should be soaked, and steaming the ones that should be steamed for later use, in short, she was also busy alone.
"I'm back." Lin Aijun came in with a backpack, and his face was a little bad.
"Did you buy everything?" Du Juan looked up and asked, "There are so few green vegetables here. ”
"I didn't buy them all." Lin Aijun shook his head, "Fortunately, you went into the mountains yesterday to catch a few game, otherwise this dish would not be good today." He didn't expect that there would be so few things in the county, and there would be no fish or vegetables at all.
"Forget it, we should have thought of it a long time ago." Du Juan smiled, "I soaked some kelp, I don't know if they will like to eat it?" "Kelp is a good thing, but obviously some people don't like it for a little slippery feel, but she loves it.
"Didn't soak much, did you? This is what I brought to you to eat, but it can't be cheaper than those who don't know the goods. Lin Aijun squatted in front of the basin, stretched out his finger and scratched a few times in it, but fortunately, there were only two.
"I just soaked two." Du Juan hurriedly responded, she was reluctant, but there were really no fresh vegetables here.
When Du Juan and Lin Aijun were almost ready, Yu Hongjun next door came over with his son in his arms.
"Linzi, you go and sit, we are here to do it." As soon as the fat sister-in-law came, she drove Lin Aijun away. I'm afraid he's all in charge of today's feast.
Du Juan looked at Lin Aijun without a trace, and both saw helplessness in each other's eyes, but neither of them said much, and Lin Aijun obediently lifted a hot water bottle. took Du Juan's self-fried tea leaves from the mountains of her hometown, and chatted with Yu Hongjun while watching the children.
Yu Hongjun gave him a helpless look, his daughter-in-law's test of Lin Zi's daughter-in-law was not over, he could only silently pray in his heart that Lin Zi's daughter-in-law would be more angry. Otherwise, his ears would not be quiet.
Although Lin Aijun was dissatisfied with the fat sister-in-law's way of testing Du Juan from time to time, he saw that the other party did it all for his own good. Besides, Du Juan also asked him to leave it alone, saying that he would solve it himself, and he had already asked Lao Yu for an explanation.
The fat sister-in-law actually knew that her approach did not satisfy Lin Aijun, but she still did it.
She has always done things by feeling, and she felt that her test of Du Juan would not only not embarrass her, but would help her integrate into their military wives faster.
"Is there anything I can help me with?" The fat sister-in-law asked, rolling up her sleeves.
"I've got all the dishes ready, fat sister-in-law, don't you want to help me light the fire, save me from running back and forth alone."
"Okay." The fat sister-in-law replied. It's better to burn the fire, she can observe each other while the fire is burning, but she wants to see who is cooking this dish today.
Du Juan looked at the fat sister-in-law's mountain-like body, and let her be in the kitchen like this, which suddenly made the kitchen much smaller, so let's send her to the fire.
Next, the comrades-in-arms came one after another, and Du Juan had already asked Lin Aijun and them to set up two round tables, and these tables and chairs were borrowed from the cooking class.
Braised rabbit meat with some potatoes in it and stewed overnight. The smell was all in, and Du Juan filled two large pots and then filled a small soup bowl with a pot, which was the table of the women and the children.
Scoop out the pheasant, tear it by hand and mix it with various spices. It's delicious and convenient.
More than a dozen dishes such as cold-mixed kelp, white-cut cuttlefish, peanuts with moss, bran vinegar faucet, fried pork slices with green peppers, and shredded hot and sour potatoes were put on a plate under the noses of the fat sister-in-law and others.
The fat sister-in-law knew that she underestimated Du Juan, but from today, from this meeting, the fat sister-in-law really accepted Du Juan and really wanted to make friends with her.
"Come on. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the egg custard that Auntie specially steamed for you, hurry up and eat it. Du Juan held the tray with several bowls of egg custard sprinkled with wolfberries.
"Auntie, what's this red?" Li Jing of Li Jiefang's family asked with big eyes open and swallowing saliva.
"It's a goji berry." Du Juan smiled and hugged her on the kang, "Goji berries are a good thing, eating them can clear heat and moisten the lungs." ”
"Sweet." Yu Haiyang said loudly, "Pretty aunt, the egg custard is delicious and good-looking." ”
Du Juan smiled and touched Yu Xiaoxiao's head, "If it's delicious, eat it quickly, there will be other more delicious ones later." ”
Hua Niu and the others looked at the children in front of them, and the bowls of egg custard looked at Du Juan without a trace.
"I didn't expect her to cook so well." Ji Min was a little jealous, and the dishes she cooked could only be eaten.
"yes, much better than me." Hu Meng said unwillingly, her cooking level is average, but the pasta is good, so she said, "I don't know what staple food to eat in a while." ”
"It's supposed to be rice, she's a southerner, and she can eat northern pasta?" Hua Niu glanced at her son and gulped down the egg custard in the bowl, she secretly swallowed her saliva, and secretly decided to eat more later.
"How much rice we have just shared, it's not enough for these people to eat today." Hu Meng pouted, what if she wasn't used to pasta, here, did she still want to eat rice every meal? They produce more wheat than grain.
"What is this?" The fat sister-in-law asked very curiously when she saw Du Juan pour a pot of yellow juice into the basin and began to mix noodles.
"It's cabbage juice." Du Juan's hands did not stop, kneading the dough in the basin vigorously one after another.
The fat sister-in-law looked at the cabbage that had been minced in another pot, as if she could fly away with a gentle blow on it, could it be that the cabbage juice she said was controlled from these cabbages?
Du Juan doesn't care what she thinks, she just wants to make cabbage-stuffed dumplings in her head. The dumplings were also eaten in a northern city in her previous life, and the dumplings in that house were filled with only cabbage, and all of them were mixed with cabbage after controlling the juice, and the taste made her unforgettable for life.
Sure enough, today's Du Juan's dumplings were praised by all the guests, and they asked her how to make them.
Du Juan was not stingy, and carefully explained the process, as for whether they would learn or not, it was not within her consideration.
"Sister-in-law, when will I be able to eat the fish you burned again?" Zhao Dagang said nostalgically.
"Yes, sister-in-law, since I ate the fish you cooked once at your house, I have never forgotten it." Yang Yang also joked, "It's a pity that it's difficult for us to catch a fish in this place." ”
"Anyway, as long as it's my sister-in-law's cooking, I like to eat it." Ma Da Cannon said vaguely in his mouth, and the chopsticks in his hand kept waving towards the dishes on the table.
"Let's start spring, when the spring river thaws, I'll find a way to catch some fish." Du Juan smiled and said, in fact, she was not familiar with this neighborhood during this time, and she didn't know where there was a river, otherwise she would really catch a few, because she was also hungry for fish.
Everyone who ate this meal was satisfied, especially praised Du Juan's dishes, and asked to come to eat often in the future.
Yu Hongjun stayed to watch the children, Du Juan, Lin Aijun and the fat sister-in-law quickly cleaned up the mess.
Fortunately, everyone gave Du Juan a lot of face, and the pots were quite clean, which was convenient for her to scrub.
After sending away the fat sister-in-law's family of three, Du Juan breathed a sigh of relief and said to Lin Aijun with a smile, "I finally didn't embarrass you." ”
"It's not a shame, it's a big long face." Lin Aijun grabbed the work in Du Juan's hands, "Today you are the hardest, hurry up and wash and rest, and I'll get the rest." It was just a simple retreat, and he felt that he could do it alone.
Du Juan saw that he insisted, so she let him go, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go rest." You can clean up in a while, and lie down for a while, I see you drank a lot of wine at noon. ”
"Okay."
In the next few days, Lin Aijun was busy with his special brigade, while Du Juan installed curtains on all the windows in the house.
I also used the edges and corners of the fabric to make a few cushions, cushions and other things for the home, so that the home looks elegant and warm. (To be continued.) )
