Chapter 323: You can’t kiss after eating snail noodles

Luo Xinxin's expression changed, and she angrily retorted: "If you can't speak, sew your mouth shut!"

You eat shit, your whole family eats shit!

"I'm just saying this, Xiao Luo, what did you cook? It tastes so... special!"

The woman who said she was cooking shit came over with her nose covered, wanting to see what the dish was. It turned out to be even stinkier than a pit toilet.

"Stinky mandarin fish, this dish smells stinky but tastes delicious!"

Luo Xinxin served the fish, washed the pot and waited for Li Rong to come back for dinner.

"This fish is really delicious. When I lived in the residential building where I used to live, there was a sister-in-law from Anhui Province who knew how to cook this fish. She even gave me a few and they were quite delicious."

Zhi Hongxia looked calm and didn't feel the stink at all.

"I'll give you a few. I brought a whole jar with me."

It was a rare opportunity to meet someone who knew the value of the fish, so Luo Xinxin was in a good mood and took out a few stinky mandarin fish from the jar to give to the other person.

The others wanted to see what kind of fish it was, but as soon as they got closer, they were driven back several meters by the stench. Even if they covered their noses tightly, they couldn't stand it.

"One is enough, keep it for yourself."

Zhi Hongxia was only willing to take one, but Luo Xinxin forced three on her, as she still had several jars in her space.

"I also have stinky amaranth, but you probably won't be used to it."

Luo Xinxin couldn't help but share the smelly food with her. Even many local people in Zhejiang Province couldn't get used to eating stinky amaranth, let alone outsiders.

"I've actually eaten this before. It's a specialty of Shaocheng, right? It's called Steamed Three Stinky Pork, and it's actually quite delicious."

Zhi Hongxia smiled. The people in the family building came from all over the country and their diets were diverse. She had tried a lot of food from other places, and stinky amaranth was one of them.

Others couldn't get used to it, but she thought it was delicious.

Luo Xinxin's eyes lit up, and she immediately went to dig out some stinking amaranth from the jar and gave her a bowl.

"When you're done eating, ask for me. I have plenty."

"Thank you, I haven't eaten this in a long time."

Zhi Hongxia was not polite either, she was indeed a little greedy.

After taking so many things from others, she wanted to return the favor, so she asked, "Do you eat snail noodles? They are also very smelly. Many people eat them in my hometown."

"Eat, but there are no snails or pickled bamboo shoots here!"

Luo Xinxin nodded vigorously. She was so craving for snail noodles, but they were not sold in the system mall. The reason was that the mall did not sell food with strange smells. It was really a bit embarrassing.

There are no snails or bamboo shoots in the ditches in the northwest. Without these two raw materials, it is impossible to make them yourself.

"The most important thing about snail noodles is the sour bamboo shoots. Snails are just for the soup base. You can replace it with bone soup or chicken soup. As long as there are sour bamboo shoots, it will be fine. I have a jar of sour bamboo shoots at home. I'll go get it for you."

Zhi Hongxia ran home in a hurry. After a while, she came back with a bowl of stinky sour bamboo shoots.

Luo Xinxin took it and took a big sip with satisfaction, "This is the taste, I miss it so much."

"This is the dry rice noodle from my hometown. It tastes different from the rice noodle here."

Zhi Hongxia also brought a bag full of vermicelli.

"Thank you, sister-in-law. You're welcome."

Luo Xinxin took the dried vermicelli and prepared to make some bone soup and cook a big bowl of snail noodles to satisfy her craving.

"I took so many of your things!"

Zhi Hongxia said something annoyed and went home to cook.

Soon, an indescribable stench came from Zhi's house. During this dinner, everyone in the family building experienced a baptism of stench, and they found it difficult to swallow their own dinner.

Only Luo Xinxin, Zhi Hongxia and her son Xiaoqiang enjoyed their meal.

Li Rong had two wads of toilet paper stuck in his nostrils. He was speechless as he watched his wife devouring the snail noodles. This stuff was even stinkier than stinky mandarin fish and tasted the most like shit.

He looked at Luo Xinxin's mouth with a little disgust. This mouth...can't be kissed.

Even if you brush your teeth eighteen times, they will still smell like shit.

Li Rong silently calculated the time. The pregnancy period was about nine and a half months, which meant that his wife would have to eat "shit" for another seven and a half months.

He gritted his teeth. It was said that a pregnant woman's taste was determined by the baby in her belly. Could it be that he would have two children who loved to eat shit in the future?

Li Rong's mood immediately turned bad when he thought about the stinky food that would be on the dining table at home in the future.

“It’s so delicious, so satisfying!”

Luo Xinxin finished a bowl of noodles and even drank the soup. She was so satisfied.

"Why don't you eat?"

She found that the food in front of Li Rong was not touched at all.

"I'll eat after you finish."

Li Rong covered his nose and ate with the stench, which made him feel as if he was eating in a toilet. He had no mood to eat any delicacies.

"Then you'll have to get used to it. I'll be eating for a long time!"

Luo Xinxin went to get another bowl of rice and ate it with the stinky mandarin fish.

"It's okay. If you stay in a room full of orchids for a long time, you won't smell the fragrance anymore. If you stay in a shop selling abalone for a long time, you won't smell the stench anymore. You'll get used to it after a while."

Li Rong took out the toilet paper from his nostrils and started eating.

After having snail noodles, he felt that stinky mandarin fish was actually quite refreshing. It turned out that humans are extremely adaptable creatures.

"Then you'll get used to it slowly."

Luo Xinxin curled her lips and continued eating.

Both of them had great appetites and finished their meals. Peng Shuangcheng, who lived next door, ate the food he got from the cafeteria alone, which consisted of a bowl of fried potato chips with meat and three sorghum buns.

He stopped after a few bites. The more he ate, the more miserable his life became. The moldy tofu and kimchi at home were also eaten up. Originally, his eldest daughter cooked, but now his three children were taken to the farm. He couldn't even cook and had to eat in the cafeteria.

A few days ago, he went to the farm and wanted to persuade Xiang Ermei to go home, but the woman mocked him and asked him to file for divorce. The three daughters didn't want to go home with him and wanted to stay with their mother.

He returned home with a rage, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became, but he couldn't do anything about his second sister.

This woman's heart has completely gone wild now. She might even have a lover on the farm. That's why she insists on divorcing him.

Thinking that his head might be covered in green, Peng Shuangcheng couldn't eat anymore. He pushed the lunch box aside and sulked to himself.

There was a noise coming from next door. Peng Shuangcheng became alert and went out to see. Sure enough, the light was on next door and Li Rong came out with a basin of dishes to wash.

"Deputy Battalion Commander Li, I have something to discuss with you."

Peng Shuangcheng's tone was very serious. The current problems in his family were all caused by Luo Xinxin. This woman made it impossible for him to even have hot meals. He had to solve the problem for him.

"Just tell me if you have something to say!"

Li Rong didn't even raise his head, washing the dishes was more important.

"Wait until you've washed the dishes."

Peng Shuangcheng didn't want to talk so casually and appear not serious at all.

"After washing the dishes, I still have to take a walk with my wife. If you have anything to say, please tell me quickly."

Li Rong was a little impatient. He knew it was nothing serious when he heard it. It was just that he was in a good mood now. In the past, he would not even pay attention to it.

"Your wife fanned the flames, instigating my wife to leave the family and taking the children away. Now she's determined to divorce me. Your wife is destroying a military marriage. If she can persuade Xiang Ermei to return home, I won't hold her responsible!"

Peng Shuangcheng became more and more angry as he spoke. He had the worst life in the entire military region. He was exhausted from work every day and couldn't even have a good meal when he got home. It was all Luo Xinxin's fault.

Li Rong finally stopped and looked up at him. He was about to say something, but when he saw Peng Shuangcheng's face, he was so shocked that he blurted out: "Why are you so old? Why don't you go to the hospital for a physical examination first?"

It's only been more than two months since I last saw him, but Peng Shuangcheng looks like he's aged ten years. He has white hair and a skinny face.
