"Why else, it must be because of the entanglement of interests, you must know that although the major military regions are all one country, there is still competition between them. An old revolutionary like the old chief, no matter where he goes, is a good thing for a long face, if he can stay in which military region he stays, it will be the glory of the entire military region, and it will be easier when recruiting soldiers! Of course, the old chief is now retired and will not go anywhere to serve again, but it is good to be able to go a few more times. Xu Zhongjun explained.

"Oh, I see, I said!" Xie Xiaonian suddenly realized.

The next morning, when Xie Xiaonian was cooking, a little space well water was added to everything, which not only ensured the taste, but also kept it from being noticed.

And this is very good for the old chief's body, although most of them will be eaten by others at that time, but as long as it can be sent into the old chief's mouth a little, then her thoughts are not in vain.

After the old chief went to the canteen at noon, he looked at the food on the table and knew that this was definitely not made in the army canteen.

So he asked suspiciously: "Didn't you say that you can eat in the canteen just like the soldiers?" This dish doesn't look like it was made in a military canteen! ”

"Old chief, your eyesight is really good, this is really not made by the army canteen, we think that you eat the canteen all year round, so we will give you a different trick. However, we know that you have always been frugal, so we didn't dare to break too far, so we asked two military wives with good skills in the compound to help make it. The political commissar was afraid that the old chief would blame them for bothering others, so he hurriedly said.

Although Luo Changsong knew that it would not be so simple, others also had good intentions, and he was not their superior, so he was not qualified to criticize, so he didn't say anything.

"You have a heart, this looks very good, how about I try this messy stew." After speaking, Luo Changsong took a piece of eggplant and put it in his mouth.

"Oops, this one is delicious, it's the best messy stew I've ever tasted." The old chief said in surprise.

Because of the ten dishes on the table, seven of them were made by Xie Xiaonian, and the other three were also the specialties of the old military sister-in-law, so after the old chief tasted it, he was very satisfied.

The old chief was happy, and the others were naturally happy, plus the dishes were really good, so this meal could be described as a joy for the guests and hosts.

After eating, the old chief said, "Which two military wives did this?" I want to meet them and thank them. ”

"What's the need to thank them, it's their honor that you can like their cooking, it's too late for them to be happy! If you want to meet them, I'll go to the back kitchen and call them over!" ”

After a while, Xie Xiaonian and another military sister-in-law were led out of the back kitchen.

After the introduction, when the old chief heard that Xie Xiaonian was Xu Zhongjun's wife, he asked in surprise: "You are the daughter-in-law of that kid of Zhongjun, the medicine and wine he gave me at the military academy before said that it was made by his daughter-in-law, so it won't be you." You are a little girl, I didn't expect the craftsmanship to be so good, my old cold legs haven't relapsed for a long time since I drank the medicinal wine you made. ”

"I did it, I learned a little bit of medicine from my grandfather when I was a child. When Zhongjun went home to visit his relatives, he saw that the medicinal wine I made for my mother-in-law was very good, so I brought you a little, and he only said that it was a teacher in the military academy, but I didn't expect it to be you! Xie Xiaonian said with a smile.

"Hahaha, am I not his teacher, it seems that our fate is really not shallow! Before, Zhongjun always loved to show off to me, saying that his daughter-in-law has good craftsmanship, good medical skills, and better people, and today I can see a real person. I originally planned to go to Zhongjun's house for dinner in the evening, but I didn't expect to taste his daughter-in-law's craftsmanship at noon. I'll go to your house for dinner in the evening, and I don't have to do anything else, just make me this messy stew, I'll just take this bite, and it would be better if I could have a glass of wine! The old chief said with a smile.

And the old chief said that the loyal army was his student, which was equivalent to admitting that the loyal army was his person, and it was also the loyal army that touched him a lot.

"Okay, as long as you like, you can eat as much as you like! I promise to have it ready for you! Xie Xiaonian said happily.

Originally, they didn't dare to invite the chief to dinner, but they didn't expect the old chief to take the initiative to ask to go to her house for dinner in the evening, which was really unexpected.

"The craftsmanship of the daughter-in-law of the loyal army is good, I will go to her house with you to eat at night!" The political commissar did not miss any opportunity to contact the old chief, and said with a smile.

"No need, you can be busy with yours, I'll just go by myself, no one needs to accompany me, I still have to chat with the loyal army, just go and see his injuries."

The old chief just wanted to have a simple meal, and he didn't want too many other factors to be mixed in it, so he directly refused.

Since the old chief said so, of course the others did not dare to disobey.

However, because the old chief's decision was in a hurry, and the troops couldn't let Xiao Nian just stew as the old chief said, so when Xie Xiaonian went back, the logistics department sent Xie Xiaonian some different ingredients and asked him to entertain the old chief at night.

Xie Xiaonian thought to herself that her family didn't buy too many vegetables except for the things that replenished the body of the loyal army, and if she took out other ingredients at that time, it would definitely arouse suspicion, so she didn't shirk and carried it directly.

"Zhongjun, I saw the old chief at noon today, and he also took the initiative to say that he would come to our house for dinner in the evening!" As soon as Xie Xiaonian arrived home, he said happily.

"Really, that's great! I won't listen to the lecture that afternoon, I'll help you cook at home! Xu Zhongjun said happily.

"No, I don't need you, you don't know, I cook very fast, and I haven't given such a lecture once a year, it's a pity to miss it, you can rest assured, I'm busy by myself." Xie Xiaonian hurriedly refused.

"Dad, I can also help my mother cook and help her make a fire." Peacefully answered.

"Me too, so can I!" Pancakes also chimed in.

"Well, okay, I'll trouble you two for dinner." Xu Zhongjun said with a smile.

Because Xu Zhongjun was prone to dizziness, he had to rest for a while, so he was still pushed to the venue by He Shulin in the afternoon.

And after they left, Xie Xiaonian began to prepare dinner, and she also secretly replaced some of the ingredients given by the army with the ingredients in the space, presumably the dinner at night would be even more delicious.

"Xiao Nian, I'll give you a hand!" Although Chen Xiuhong can only cook the simplest meals now, it is still no problem to help wash the dishes or something, so not long after eating, Chen Xiuhong came to Xiao Nian's house according to her husband's instructions.

"Okay, thank you then, I'm too busy!" Xie Xiaonian said with a smile.

Because peace is still small, Xie Xiaonian didn't dare to let him touch such a job as burning a fire, for fear of burning him.

And Zhang Chunping and the others all went to work again, so Chen Xiuhong came in a timely manner.

"I thought it didn't matter if I could cook, but I didn't expect to be able to cook, and there would be such benefits!" Chen Xiuhong said enviously while washing vegetables.

"This kind of thing is hard to come by, but it's still useful to be able to cook, at least the husband and children don't have to eat in the canteen all the time. I see that since you learned how to cook a few dishes with Pearl, you and your husband and wife have quarreled less! ”

"It's really less, at least because of the number of fights over food, I often watch you cook now, and I practice more times, and I feel that my skills are slowly getting better!" Chen Xiuhong said happily.

"Then keep up the good work! It's definitely going to get better and better. Although Xie Xiaonian felt that Chen Xiuhong's cooking did not match the craftsmanship at all, in order not to discourage her enthusiasm, he still said encouragingly.

It may be that Li Jianguo explained in advance, so Chen Xiuhong finished helping and saw that the meal was almost done, so she said goodbye and went back.

After all, the old chief was not even allowed to accompany the political commissar, and if she was still here, it would seem that she had other purposes.

As soon as Xie Xiaonian put the food on the table, he heard a knock on the door.

Opening the door, Xie Xiaonian saw 3 people standing at the door, the loyal army and the old chief were standing one after the other, and the wheelchair of the loyal army was also pushed by the old chief's guards, He Shulin had long since disappeared, and he should have been afraid of being suspected, so he avoided it early.

"Old chief, comrade guard, please come in, please come in, you are back in time, the meal has just been put on the table, let's wash our hands, and we will be ready to eat soon!" Xie Xiaonian greeted warmly when he saw someone coming.

"Great, I've been hungry for a long time, I've been wanting to eat your food all afternoon!" The old chief said with a smile.

"Then we'll start eating right away! In the future, as long as you want to eat, you can come and eat at any time, and our family is always welcome. Xie Xiaonian said with a smile.

And Pancake and Heping, who were standing beside Xie Xiaonian, also obediently shouted to the old chief and his guards: "Hello grandpa!" Hello uncle! ”

"Okay, good, hello, so good!" The old chief touched the heads of the two children and said with a smile.

The old chief has no children, so he likes children very much.

When they sit down to eat, they both pull the two children to their side.

"Hey, didn't you say you had wine for me? What about wine? The old chief asked as he sat down.

"Of course, I'll bring it to you!"

After speaking, Xie Xiaonian took out a jar from the kitchen and said with a smile: "Considering your physical condition, I prepared wine!" ”

"What's so good about wine, it's boring!" The old chief said disappointedly.

"This is my own brew, whether it tastes good or not, you will know if you taste it, I promise you will drink it once and think twice." Xie Xiaonian did not change his mind because of the old chief's words, and continued.

Immediately, he motioned to Xu Zhongjun to pour a bowl for the old chief and the guards. I want to chat with more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
