The four dishes behind him were revealed.

As Deputy Political Commissar Qu stepped forward, an enticing aroma wafted towards him; the four dishes before him were a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate.

He couldn't help but swallow hard and asked, "Xiao Su, did you make all these dishes by yourself?"

Before Su Miaoyan could answer, Deputy Political Commissar Qu scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "Look at the nonsense I'm spouting. There's no one around you, so you must have done it all by yourself. Oh dear."

Su Miaoyan smiled slightly. "Alright, Deputy Political Commissar Qu, I'll take the food over. I'll have to trouble you today."

"No trouble at all!"

Deputy Political Commissar Qu carried two dishes to the table. As soon as the dishes touched the table, Su Miaoyan placed the remaining two dishes on the table.

Lin Fengxue and the others had just put away their notebooks and were chatting in the living room when they smelled the fragrance and couldn't help but turn around to look.

Yan Huaili couldn't help but say, "The tea in the Su family's house is fragrant, and so is the food."

Li Changfeng nodded and said softly, "Yes, let's go and ask Xiao Su where she bought this tea."

Lin Fengxue stood up from her chair. "Let's go, let's go thank Xiao Su. Tea is so precious these days, yet she brought it out to entertain us old folks."

After speaking, the group walked to the dining table. Seeing them arrive, Su Miaoyan quickly greeted them.

"Professors, please take your seats quickly, the food will get cold and won't taste good."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work today, Xiao Su!"

Su Miaoyan waved her hand, "It's nothing, it's nothing."

Before dinner, Li Changfeng asked curiously, "Xiao Su, the tea you brewed tastes even better than the one the big boss served me when I was in Beijing for a meeting. Where did you buy this tea?"

Su Miaoyan paused in her chopsticks-like motion, her mind racing, and replied with a smile, "It was brought from Rongcheng!"

Luckily, Lu Ting isn't here right now, otherwise he would definitely be wondering, "My wife came to Xinjiang Province without bringing tea, and she doesn't know how to cook."

Li Changfeng nodded upon hearing this, having forgotten that the other party came from a capitalist family in Chengdu.

The others seemed to realize something as well, and Yan Huaili changed the subject, "Alright, Lao Li, let's eat, or the food will get cold!"

Li Changfeng: "Good, good!"

Suddenly, the only sound on the dining table was the clinking of chopsticks.

Vegetables grown in the omnipotent space have excellent taste and nutritional value.

Almost the instant the food entered their mouths, their eyes widened in surprise.

This is so delicious!

The group consisted of top experts in biology, who naturally noticed that the fruits and vegetables were completely different from those in the military canteen.

This rice is crystal clear, with each grain plump and full. Not only that, it tastes very sweet and fragrant.

The other four dishes were even better. I originally thought that Xiao Su, a capitalist's daughter, wouldn't be very good at cooking, but I didn't expect her cooking skills to be so good!

The four of them practically ate their chopsticks and bowls!

Su Miaoyan was full after eating only half a bowl. When she put down her chopsticks and looked up, she found that all four dishes had been completely eaten.

Seemingly noticing her surprised gaze, Yan Huaili said apologetically, "Xiao Su, your cooking is so delicious, we couldn't resist."

Li Changfeng is a straightforward person. "I've been serving the people in Xinjiang Province for so many years, and this is the first time I've eaten food that tastes better than the state-run restaurants in Beijing. Xiao Su, it's a real pity that you're not a head chef with such culinary skills."

Su Miaoyan was embarrassed by the praise, but she said without batting an eye, "Professor Li, Professor Yan, you're exaggerating. I was just doing it casually."

"You're just being modest, kid."

Li Changfeng laughed and joked, and the group exchanged glances. Then they saw Yan Huaili's expression turn serious.

He put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked at Su Miaoyan. "Little Su, you said you planted some vegetables in the yard. Can you take us to see them?"

This is exactly what Su Miaoyan was waiting for!

She stood up without changing her expression and said with a smile, "Of course, I'll take you there!"

"good!"

The group responded in unison and quickly pulled out the notebooks they had put back in their bags.

Who would have thought that so much could be gained in just the time it takes to eat a meal?

Su Miaoyan led the group to the abandoned plot of land in the backyard, reached out her hand, and pushed open the door.

"This is it! I'll plant flowers in the front yard and vegetables in the back. I'm also planning to raise some chickens or something, so I won't have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to cook anymore!"

Almost as soon as the door opened, everyone was stunned by the scene before them.

Yan Huaili rubbed his eyes in disbelief, his entire body frozen like a statue.

The other three behaved exactly the same way he did.

this……

After regaining his senses, Yan Huaili almost rushed to the front of the vegetable garden.

He scooped up a handful of soil with his hands.

Just by touching it, Yan Huaili could tell that this soil was not ordinary soil, but... black soil!

Where does the black soil in the Gobi Desert come from?!

Even if it exists, how is it kept fertile?

Yan Huaili had too many questions in his mind, but before he could ask them, his attention was drawn to the fruits and vegetables in front of him.

Such big, red, and fresh tomatoes!

Yan Huaili had never seen such a pleasing-looking tomato before. He quickly took out his notebook and began writing furiously on it.

That's amazing! That's amazing!

In the desolate Gobi Desert, there exists such a magical place!

Everyone except Deputy Political Commissar Qu and Su Miaoyan was frantically recording this land.

After finishing recording, Yan Huaili was overcome with emotion and tears streamed down his face.

This Xiao Su is simply a genius!

A genius in agriculture!

Someone like that is a perfect match for Xiao Xu!

Xiao Xu is a genius in medicine, and Xiao Su is a genius in planting. Neither of them is married, and Yan Huaili secretly made up his mind to bring this good marriage together!

They completely forgot why Su Miaoyan lived alone in a courtyard.

Moreover, this courtyard is located within the military dependents' housing complex.

Yan Huaili walked shakily to Su Miaoyan, put the notebook back into his crossbody bag, his gaze both weathered and admiring. "Little Su, this afternoon, I'd like to introduce you to someone. Are you free?"

Su Miaoyan was flattered; was he going to introduce her to a powerful figure?

"I certainly can't refuse," Su Miaoyan replied, "Professor Yan, I'm free."

Yan Huaili said happily, "Okay, then you can come with me this afternoon, how about it?"

"OK!"

Since she had nothing to do in the afternoon, Su Miaoyan readily agreed.

Li Changfeng and Lin Fengxue looked up at Yan Huaili and couldn't help but shake their heads and smile.

This old man is tormenting that kid, Xiao Xu, again.

but……

Looking at the beautiful and elegant Su Miaoyan in front of them, the two exchanged a tacit glance. If these two children could really get together, that would indeed be a good thing.
