Chapter 19 Bai Naihan has a partner
Soon, Yun Qinghuan discovered that Bai Naihan was really talented at chopping vegetables. The shreds he cut were thin and neat, all about the same size, which was much better than what she had cut.
The key thing is that they cut it very quickly.
The hand raised the knife and dropped it, "Pap-pap-pap", so fast that it was hard to see the gesture clearly.
She felt some pain in her hand. If she was like him, she would definitely cut her hand.
The side dishes were all ready, and she and he worked together, one lighting the fire and the other working on the stove.
First, get out the lard, then stir-fry the hot and sour cabbage with the lard, and finally garnish with some chopped green onion. I don’t know if it’s because of the lard, but I feel that this simple hot and sour cabbage is very delicious.
At least it tastes better than boiled vegetables.
Because this was an oil pan after all, she simply mashed the last bit of oil residue, then put the shredded radish into the pan and turned it over a few times, put in all the seasonings, and finally looked at the few scattered pieces in the basket. One glance at the eggs showed that they were laid by the family's hens, and Liu Yuzhi was reluctant to eat them.
She gritted her teeth and took two eggs and beat them into the dish.
In this way, the whole family can eat it.
Otherwise Liu Yuzhi would definitely not be willing to eat it.
Nowadays, several people in the family need to supplement their nutrition, and they still have to eat when they should. At worst, she will think of ways to improve the food.
Perhaps it was because her expression of breaking two eggs was too heart-wrenching, and next to her, Bai Naihan couldn't help but purse his lips and smile.
Yun Qinghuan glanced at him, his expression froze, "What's so funny?"
Bai Naihan stopped his smile, clenched his fist to his mouth and coughed, "Sister-in-law, don't be angry. I just want to say that if you want to eat, you can eat whatever you want. I still received compensation after I retired from the army, which is enough for our family to eat and drink for a while."
Yun Qinghuan glanced at the white bandage on his leg and pursed her lips, "That money is yours. Since mom doesn't want to take it, I can't take it either. You should save your own money yourself. After you get married, you have to support your own family."
The compensation for his retirement was paid for by his own life. Yun Qinghuan didn't want to spend his money because it would make him feel uneasy.
When Bai Naihan heard what she said about getting married, he glanced at his legs with a wry smile, "I'm afraid I won't be able to keep that girl busy."
Yun Qinghuan pursed her lips and said nothing more, but looked at him with a faint sympathy.
In fact, Bai Naihan has a partner, and it's almost time to talk about marriage. But this time when he was injured and returned home from the army, his partner didn't even see a shadow. It seemed that he might not agree to the marriage. .
This was suddenly pulled out of the memory of the original owner when she just mentioned that he was getting married.
The partner of Bai Naihan is from the next village. She is very beautiful and the beauty of the village next door. She is very squeamish. At first, she looked down on Bai Naihan, thinking that he was just a poor boy and not worthy of her.
When Bai Naihan went to serve in the army, he did not return home for many years.
The first time he came back was when the original owner got married. At that time, he came back to visit relatives in military uniform. His appearance was a big change. He was upright and handsome, and with the blessing of the military uniform, he immediately fascinated Xia Yuhua, who came to the wedding banquet. In addition, Bai Naihan already had a small position in the army/team at that time, and according to current terms, he was a full-fledged potential stock.
Xia Yuhua directly follows the hardy cypress.
I chased him for a long time, and she stayed behind him almost every day during the days when he was visiting relatives.
Bai Naihan seemed to have a very cold attitude towards this girl, but Liu Yuzhi couldn't help but felt that his son was old, already twenty-one, and he often went on missions and could not see him even once a year. In the countryside, a young man of his age would have been married long ago. Now, some children can make soy sauce.
Moreover, Bai Naihan's job was quite dangerous, and he might not be able to come back one day, so Liu Yuzhi thought of letting him get married first. After giving birth to a baby, he took root here. Could you be less reckless.
Even if he had an accident one day, he would still have his bloodline.
Liu Yuzhi had already prepared for the worst, so even if Bai Naihan didn't like Xia Yuhua, she still forced her son to try to have sex with Xia Yuhua.
If the memory of the original owner was correct, Bai Naihan seemed to feel that Xia Yuhua was too annoyed at that time, and Liu Yuzhi was urging her so much that he left early before the family leave was over.
Later, he came back to visit relatives again, and that time, he relaxed and said that he was willing to try everything with Xia Yuhua.
But in Liu Yuzhi's opinion, this marriage is stable, and everyone has already made arrangements to finalize the marriage. Unfortunately, Bai Naihan has not come back since that time, and the marriage has not been decided yet. .
But Liu Yuzhi already treated Xia Yuhua as her daughter-in-law. During the holidays, she would send things to Xia Yuhua's family and act like a relative.
It's just that this time Bai Naihan was so seriously injured, and such a big thing happened to the Bai family, Xia Yuhua was so stunned that she didn't even show her head.
Thinking of this, Yun Qinghuan felt that she had said the wrong thing, and maybe it made Bai Naihan think of this sad thing.
After all, he and Xia Yuhua were about to get married, but now this happened again.
Maybe he had been depressed these past few days to avoid getting married. By coincidence, she mentioned her sad story today.
Next, Yun Qinghuan became much quieter, feeling that it would be wrong to say more, so it was better not to say anything.
After frying the vegetables and steaming them, she chopped up two sweet potatoes and put them in the pot. She planned to wait until the steamed buns were ready and then make sweet potato gnocchi. People at this time liked to eat them like this. It quenches both thirst and hunger.
She plans to mix the gnocchi with Fuqiang flour so that the whole family can eat it.
After everything was done, Yun Qinghuan went to make tea with chrysanthemums and mint and put it in the well to chill. Liu Yuzhi went to work in the fields. She must be thirsty, hungry and hot. I'm afraid she has finished drinking the water she brought. When the time comes, I will bring this tea over to relieve her from the heat.
After a while, the meal was ready. Yun Qinghuan asked Bai Naihan to eat first, while he brought two vegetable buns, a bowl of sweet potato pimple soup, and some hot and sour cabbage to deliver to Liu Yuzhi.
When Bai Naihan heard this, he just said, "I'm not hungry either. I'll wait for you to come back and eat together."
Knowing that he would not eat first, Yun Qinghuan did not persuade him, "Then I will come back quickly."
After walking a few steps, Yun Qinghuan met Jiang Wenxiu. She was also carrying rice in her hand. When she saw Yun Qinghuan, she walked over directly. She twitched the tip of her nose and exaggeratedly said, "Qinghuan, what are you doing?" Bringing food to your mother-in-law? What are you doing? I can smell the fragrance from afar."
"This smells too good."
Yun Qinghuan laughed after hearing this, "Sister-in-law, it's not that exaggerated, right? It's just steamed vegetable buns and made sweet potato pimple soup."
Jiang Wenxiu was a little surprised when he heard this, "Really? But it does smell good to me."
"Maybe you smell the smell of meat. I just put in a piece of pork as big as a thumb cap and cooked it with lard for stir-frying. I thought that my mother-in-law has lost weight during this period, and my family members are all sick, so I made some meaty dishes. Make up for it.”
"No wonder I smell good." Jiang Wenxiu smiled, "Your family really needs to take care of themselves."
