Jian Lu and Cheng Zheng, who sent Aunt Wang away and returned to the island, went home for a simple lunch, and were used to having their mother/mother-in-law at home for more than two months.

After eating, Cheng Zheng went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, Jian Lu looked at the man's tall back, remembered his own life experience, remembered that Cheng Zheng's father died early, and relied on his mother-in-law to support a family, looking at the house that suddenly felt empty, as if he had made a decision.

She wants a child, a baby that belongs to herself and Cheng Zheng.

"I'm going to the army, I'll come back from the canteen in the evening, and I won't fire today."

"Okay." Jian Lu was going to discuss with him in the evening, and in the past, almost all of the couple's married life had used family planning supplies, and if they wanted a cute baby, they had to say it in advance. "You'll be back soon."

"Yes." Cheng Zheng touched his daughter-in-law's head and turned to leave.

With the idea of wanting a child, Jian Lu found that she couldn't stop that thought, and when she met a child in the family courtyard, she couldn't help but think about what her and Cheng Zheng's children would look like, if a boy was as handsome as his father, if a girl was as beautiful as herself.

The more I think about it, the softer my heart becomes.

However, before Jian Lu, who waited for Cheng Zheng to go home, could open his mouth, this person suddenly said that he was going to go on a mission.

Jian Lu, who was eating, was stunned, Cheng Zheng had not gone to sea on a mission in the past three months, and she had almost forgotten that if this person was busy, he would really leave for a long time.

"It's pretty much the same as before, you wait at home, and I'll be back soon." Cheng Zheng is going to set off tonight, and he will simply pack up and go to the troops to assemble.

"Oh." Jian Lu was sullen in her heart, a little reluctant, why did this person suddenly say that he was leaving.

Returning to the house to pack up her clothes, Jian Lu followed behind Cheng Zheng, looked at his broad back, hugged him from behind with one hand, and leaned on his back, her little face was close to him, and she was silent.

Cheng Zheng's body stiffened, and he didn't expect that going to sea to carry out tasks as usual would make people so reluctant, "If you don't have anything to talk about at home, talk to Sister-in-law Feng or Sister-in-law Cui, and then you can't practice calligraphy with Dunzi." ”

Jian Lu's muffled voice came from behind, "I won't be bored, if you leave, the family will be left alone, whatever I want." ”

said so, but there was no joy in the words, Cheng Zheng smiled when he heard this, turned around and took his daughter-in-law in his arms, "Then you stay well and wait for me to come back." ”

"Okay." Jian Lu buried her head in the man's chest, put her hands around his waist, reluctantly, and when she looked up again, Shui Ling's eyes were full of reluctance, "You remember to come back early." ”

"Cheng Zheng, the 3rd Brigade and 3rd Regiment of the 9th Division of the 625th Army, promise to complete the task and come back early."

Jian Lu was amused by the man's hardcore assurance, and sent the person to the door with a blank eye.

Cheng Zheng didn't let her send her away, and when she left, she told her to go back to the house and sleep and lock the door, and then go downstairs.

In the dead of night, Jian Lu was lying on the bed alone, uncomfortable for a while, this pillow is not a pillow, the futon is not a futon, and a large humanoid 'pillow' is missing!

+++++

On the first day of Cheng Zheng's mission, he missed him.

The day after Cheng Zheng went out of the mission, he missed him.

......

On the tenth day of Cheng Zheng's mission, Jian Lu had already adapted, and happily went to Feng Xiuhui's house to chat after work, as if she had returned to the days before marriage.

Not to mention, it's really fun.

For dinner today, Feng Xiuhui asked Jian Lu to come to the house to eat, Jian Lu was home alone, and neither she nor Liang Haisheng could let anyone eat at home alone.

At the dinner table, Dunzi asked when Uncle Cheng would come back, Jian Lu ate the dishes and said casually, "I don't know, I guess there will be a while." ”

Feng Xiuhui can understand Jian Lu's mood too well, but she has long been used to it, Liang Haisheng has gone to sea, how should she and Dunzi live.

"You should come back soon, in fact, you are used to seeing them go to sea and leave for ten days and half a month, and you are used to it." Feng Xiuhui ate toon scrambled eggs, and couldn't stop talking, "If our old Liang doesn't go on a mission in a few months now, I won't be used to it." ”

"Hey!" Liang Haisheng stiffened his face, feeling that his daughter-in-law's idea was wrong, "I'm still making trouble for you at home?" ”

"Not really. One big one and one small, all messing with me. ”

Jian Lu looked at the two of them teasing, and suddenly remembered Cheng Zheng again, hey, sure enough, people can't eat dog food, otherwise they will easily miss people.

Recently, the temperature has gradually risen, Jian Lu does not taste very good, and she can't eat half a steamed bun and some vegetables, Feng Xiuhui looked at her and said, "Why is your appetite similar to Dunzi?" Eat some more. ”

"Sister-in-law Xiuhui, I ate a lot at noon, and I haven't digested it too much, I'm already full."

"Aunt Lulu, I'm also full." Dunzi ate quickly, got off the table in a hurry, and pulled Aunt Lulu to play in the corridor outside.

Of course, the main reason was that Dunzi wanted to show off that he knew a few more words, but as he showed off, the voices of several military wives downstairs came and attracted Aunt Lulu's attention.

"Then the fisherman has come back with good fish?"

"Yes, it is said that there are seven or eight catties of fish, and there are many fish, shrimps, and crabs."

It turned out that the nearby fishermen had organized a fishing trip, and just returned at noon today, a boatload of seafood was purchased by the seafood station of the non-staple food station, ready to be sold in a unified manner.

"At this time, it has been taken away by the seafood station, and those fishermen are packing up their fishing boats, and there are still some things left that they don't want, and the ball full of thorns has hung a fishing net, which makes a few fishermen so angry that they are shouting to throw it away."

"Aunt Lulu, Aunt Lulu." Seeing Aunt Lulu's eyes looking down, Dunzi hurriedly called her.

Jian Lu listened to the movement downstairs with one ear, and thought about it carefully, it was all thorny balls, wasn't that sea urchin?

"Let's go, Dunzi, let's go to the beach!"

When the two arrived, the seafood on the fishing boat had been unloaded, and only a few fishermen were left cleaning.

There were a number of sea urchins hanging from the fishing nets next to it, which were being dragged down and thrown onto cloth bags.

"It's all thorns, it's really a problem, take it back to the fertile soil."

"Comrade!" Jian Lu stepped forward with the pier, pointed to the sea urchin on the bag and asked, "This thing can... Change? ”

She can't buy or sell, she can only ask a different question.

"This thing? You want? ”

"Yes! I can get something in exchange for you. Jian Lu hadn't eaten sea urchin since she came here, and she wondered why she hadn't seen it for sale before, it turned out that no one looked down on it at all, and even if she caught it, she took it back directly to the fertile soil.

"What's the value of this, take it all if you want it, I'll have to work hard to get it back."

"Ah, thank you! Then you're welcome. ”

The fishermen helped throw all the more than a dozen sea urchins in the fishing nets into the buckets brought by Jian Lu, and they didn't know what the female comrade was doing with them.

"Do you want this too? None of this is something that no one can look up to. The fishermen were surprised, and always felt that this lesbian did not have a good eye.

"Yes."

"Will you take it back to the fertile soil?"

"No, I'll take it back and eat it."

When Jian Lu left with a small tin bucket of sea urchins and skinned fish, the fishermen wondered how beautiful a lesbian she looked at was a strange taste.

I want to eat that.

——

Back in the house, Jian Lu washed the four purple sea urchins with black thorns, cut the shell of the sea urchin with scissors with gloves, washed the internal organs, and then took out two eggs, beat them and mix them with warm water, and sprinkled them with a little salt.

Pour the egg mixture into the sea urchin with the yellow bile meat and steam for 10 minutes.

After steaming out of the pot, the sea urchin full of black thorns is filled with tender egg custard, which makes people appetize at first sight.

Feng Xiuhui looked at these other appearances and only felt fresh.

Not only her, but Liang Haisheng and Dunzi couldn't stop looking at it, but they didn't expect that this steamed egg custard could even save the bowl in such a weird-looking thing.

Taste a bite, the eggs are fresh and tender, the sea urchin is soft and delicate, with a fresh and sweet taste, which makes Liang Haisheng full of praise.

"This thing looks scary, but I didn't expect it to taste really good."

Jian Lu took the spoon and prepared her own sea urchin, "Yes, but everyone doesn't eat it, and I picked it up." ”

I scooped a piece of sea urchin meat and put it in my mouth, it tasted fresh and sweet... Vomiting, before Jian Lu could chew it, she felt a surge in her stomach, and she felt a faint uncomfortable feeling.

Chapter 45

The sea urchin doesn't smell fishy, especially because Jian Lu cleaned and processed it cleanly, it seemed that the churning in the stomach didn't last too long, Jian Lu slowed down and felt that there was no problem, it was estimated that it was too hot, so she continued to eat.

A spoonful of steamed egg custard is served with sea urchin meat, and the aroma of the egg is mixed with the sweetness of the sea urchin meat, and the aroma blooms between the lips and teeth, and then the sweetness takes over the mouth.

Dunzi quickly finished eating one, and looked over and over with this strange thing full of thorns, "Mom, this thing looks ugly, I didn't expect it to be delicious." ”

"Then your Aunt Lulu is delicious!"

Feng Xiuhui didn't expect that this kind of thing with thorns all over her body could actually be eaten?! You can also steam eggs, not to mention, it tastes a little different from the usual steamed eggs.

Jian Lu finished eating her own sea urchin steamed eggs and taught Feng Xiuhui her experience, "The sea urchin just looks strange, but it's actually quite delicious, no wonder I haven't seen anyone selling this before, it turns out that the fishermen didn't want it when they caught it, and they just threw it into the fertile soil."

"Well, who knew this could still be eaten? You can eat it, and you can figure out such a method. Teach me quickly, and I'll learn with you. ”

It just so happened that Jian Lu was going to make the remaining nine sea urchins, but now the temperature is high, and they can't be put away at all, maybe it won't be fresh tomorrow, but it's a pity Captain Cheng, the people haven't come back yet.

Under Jian Lu's guidance, Feng Xiuhui made three steamed sea urchin eggs from one egg and sent them to Cui Yuhe's family. The remaining six sea urchins are steamed with shrimp paste, which also has a unique flavor.

......

After eating and drinking, Jian Lu went home, lay on the double bed, looked at the moon outside the window and couldn't sleep, the temperature was suitable at night recently, the glass window left a slit, the gentle spring breeze blew in, she reached out and touched her belly.

Hey, it looks like there's some flesh.

Jian Lu touched it again and said to herself in surprise, "Could it be that it's really good to eat?!" ”

Early the next morning, the sad Jian Lu ate one crab roe bun for breakfast, and only bought two to go to the supply and marketing cooperative.

Since Cheng Zheng went to sea, she has not eaten at home in the morning, and she went to line up to buy steamed buns every day, and after eating for more than ten days, she found that the food stamps were almost exhausted, and then she realized that she was too extravagant.

A bun to two. Two. Food stamps, a steamed bun three taels of food stamps, Jian Lu decided to start washing her mind tomorrow, let's eat at home.

Wait until next month's food stamps come down before you go out to eat.

"Comrade Jian Lu, eat crab roe buns again?" Qiu Sifeng's nose shook a few times when he smelled the smell, it was really tempting, and he couldn't help but swallow a few times of saliva.

"Hmm." Jian Lu finished eating the last bite of crab roe buns, felt comfortable in her stomach, and then took her enamel cup to pour water, took a sip of warm water, and stood at the door of the supply and marketing cooperatives to watch people come and go.

Although the people of this age are poor, they seem to have an extra high motivation to work hard, and they are busy working on the road in a hurry.

Passing by the supply and marketing cooperatives, they like to look inside, and their eyes light up when they see so many good things, but they can only look at them because they are shy in their pockets.

"Mom, buy me some canned fruit! I'm sick ! ”

"What are you sick about, and you learned to lie in order to eat canned food, haven't you?"

"No, I'm really sick!"

At the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, three people suddenly came to meet them, one large and two small.
