"There are quite a few people from the north now?" Jiang Yushan was surprised when he heard it.

Why did she remember that there would be many northerners in later generations? She didn't expect that there were already signs now.

"Are there quite a few people from the north in our store?" Jiang Yushan thought about it carefully and didn't feel that there were particularly many customers from the north.

Could it be that she was used to it in her previous life and so didn't notice it?

"There weren't many before, but in the past few months after the Chinese New Year, there are more and more people. They probably come here to do business," Hu Xiaowen explained.

"We are indeed here to do business." Mao Dongling confirmed from the side.

They are all from the north. She usually chats with these guests and knows a little about them. She also knows that they miss the food from their hometown very much.

That's why she wanted to try making some hometown dishes to satisfy the guests' homesickness.

"Then let's try it at noon. If it goes well, we'll add the new dish tomorrow!" Jiang Yushan agreed immediately.

…

At noon, Jiang Yushan and Hu Xiaowen cooked several dishes together, including her cold dishes, and Hu Xiaowen's sauerkraut stewed with vermicelli, chicken stewed with mushrooms, and three fresh vegetables.

The table was filled with northern specialties, the aroma was everywhere, and each dish exuded an enticing flavor, delicious and appetizing.

Jiang Yushan tasted these delicacies with a satisfied smile on her face. She ate with gusto and praised the food from time to time. It was obvious that she had a special liking for these northern dishes.

In the afternoon, an idea came to Jiang Yushan's mind. She decided to cook some northern dishes herself so that Huo Ci could also taste this unique delicacy.

So she put on an apron, went into the kitchen and started to get busy.

After careful cooking, two delicious northern dishes were finally ready. She was looking forward to Huo Ci's return.

In the evening, Huo Ci returned from the army with a tired look on his face, but his eyes were shining with anticipation.

Huo Qingrong was following him, and both of them were carrying large and small bags of things, including fruits, nutritional supplements, meat, etc. Huo Qingrong even had a fat black chicken in one hand.

Ever since Jiang Yushan became pregnant, Huo Qingrong came over more often at night.

Although he felt that it was hard for Jiang Yushan to cook for another person, he couldn't help but want to come and see her. Seeing that she was fine and had a rosy complexion, he felt relieved.

"Dad, it's enough for you to just come. There's no need to keep sending things over. There's no room for them at home." Jiang Yushan was speechless after seeing so many things.

Huo Qingrong not only came to bring things himself, but even if he didn't come himself, he would ask the soldiers from the kitchen squad to bring things over every now and then.

At first it was all kinds of supplements, and later it got better. Sometimes it was meat, sometimes milk, sometimes eggs. In short, they were all things that were good for pregnant women.

Not to mention that there are a lot of things piled up at home, even Jiang Yushan’s space contains things sent by Huo Qingrong.

"Don't you have one room you're not using? Wait a few months and you should add all the kids' things."

Huo Qingrong's words were filled with concern and urging, and he didn't care at all about what Jiang Yushan said.

There were indeed quite a few supplements piled up in the corner of the living room, but the room was still empty, as if it was not yet ready to welcome the arrival of new life.

Huo Qingrong couldn't help feeling anxious as he watched this scene.

Seeing this, Jiang Yushan quickly moved forward, trying to block Huo Qingrong's view of the room.

She was really worried, but Huo Qingrong suddenly had another idea and sent over a bunch of children's things, filling up the room.

"You are pregnant with two children now, so you must get more nutrition." Fortunately, Huo Qingrong withdrew his gaze at this moment.

He turned to look at Jiang Yushan, his eyes full of worry: "Seeing how thin you are, I'm afraid you will suffer when you give birth."

There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone, and he was obviously worried about Jiang Yushan's current physical condition.

Thin, too thin!

Jiang Yushan felt helpless. She silently moved to the side, trying to keep some distance from Huo Ci.

In fact, she doesn't think she is thin.

In the nearly one year since she came to the island, her body has undergone significant changes.

She has gained a lot of weight and is no longer the skinny little girl she was when she first came. She has even grown a little taller.

However, when she stood next to Huo Ci, she always looked particularly petite.

This is not because she is petite, but because the two men in the family - Huo Qingrong and Huo Ci, are both tall.

One of them is about 1.8 meters tall and the other is 1.9 meters tall. Both of them are physically strong due to long-term exercise. Standing there, they are like two double doors, giving people a strong visual impact.

In such a comparison, even though Jiang Yushan has gained some weight, he still looks relatively thin.

Her legs seemed even thinner than Huo Ci and Huo Qingrong's arms.

This visual difference made her feel both amused and helpless.

"Oh, you two are so tall. Standing next to you, I feel like a little kid." Jiang Yushan joked with a smile, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere caused by the height difference.

Upon hearing this, Huo Ci and Huo Qingrong couldn't help but raise the corners of their lips, and both of them looked at her with eyes full of doting.

"It just so happens that I learned northern cuisine from Sister Ling today and just made two dishes. Dad brought this chicken, how about stewing it in an iron pot?" Jiang Yushan looked at the chicken that Huo Qingrong brought over, his eyes lit up, and he immediately made this suggestion.

Iron pot stew was not the dish Mao Dongling taught today, but something Jiang Yushan suddenly thought of today.

She had eaten this dish in her previous life, and her rich flavor and unique taste were still unforgettable to her.

She had originally thought of trying it out in a couple of days, but unexpectedly Huo Qingrong brought back a chicken today, which was just right for stewing in an iron pot.

After hearing Jiang Yushan's suggestion, Huo Ci and Huo Qingrong both expressed their agreement.

Although they had never eaten it, they believed in her cooking skills.

So the family started to get busy, preparing to make this delicious iron pot stewed chicken.

"I'll kill the chicken!" Huo Qingrong volunteered.

Seeing this, Huo Ci went to help. The two of them finished the job in no time and chopped up all the chicken.

"Dinner will be ready soon." Seeing Huo Ci was about to go into the kitchen to help, Jiang Yushan sent him out, wanting to eat earlier.

"Just right, come over and clean the house!" Huo Qingrong called him from outside, thinking that Huo Ci had no tact and could not see that there was work to do at home.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Jiang Yushan was having a hard time, and he couldn't help but feel distressed. On the other hand, he became more and more displeased with Huo Ci.

Jiang Yushan was in the kitchen, unaware of what was happening outside, and was concentrating on making her iron pot stew.
