"Aunt Tang, my mother asked me to bring you a bowl of braised pork with preserved vegetables and pickled mustard greens!"
The meat was from the wild boar that Tang Qiuyue had killed before. Although it had been processed by the canteen, there were not many family members on the island, so each family was given one pound of meat.
Tang Qiuyue hadn't finished the kitchen at that time, so naturally she didn't want it.
"It's A-Zhao! Come in quickly!"
The person who came was Huang Yuanchao, the youngest son of Captain Huang. He had eaten a lot of candies and snacks given by Tang Qiyue in the car before, and was very close to Tang Qiyue.
Captain Huang's wife, Sun Maisui, is a simple-minded military wife. She probably felt bad that Tang Qiyue had brought food to the children on the road, so she made some delicious food and thought of sending it to her.
Huang Yuanchao is already seven years old. The little guy is very sensible. Although he entered the house, he did not look at the egg pancake that Tang Qiyue placed on the table.
Tang Qiuyue asked Huang Yuanchao to sit for a while while she turned over the salted fish she had just thrown into the pot.
"Why don't you keep some to eat?"
Tang Qiyue was always making small talk; she was very patient with children.
Huang Yuanchao sniffed and wiped the saliva. Although he felt that the braised pork with preserved vegetables was very fragrant, the difference was huge compared to the pancakes on Tang Qiyue's table.
"We've already finished eating. My mom said Uncle Zhan was on a mission. When I went to the cafeteria to buy steamed buns today, I didn't see Aunt Tang. I was worried that you must not have cooked!"
The little guy tried hard to explain everything that needed to be explained, but he still didn't grasp the key points. It was probably because he didn't remember anything Sun Maisui told him.
"Your mother is amazing. I really forgot about dinner time!"
The salted fish had been fried until golden brown. Tang Qiyue did not put out the fire in the stove, but poured a kettle of water into the stove, and then invited Huang Yuanchao into the house.
There is no dining table in the kitchen, so you still need to go into the main house to eat.
Tang Qiyue thought this was very inconvenient, so she planned to put a dining table in the kitchen, or even just a table in the yard. She could eat in the yard during the day, and in the kitchen when it rained or the weather was bad, to avoid the trouble of carrying food back and forth.
Huang Yuanchao saw that Tang Qiyue couldn't carry so many things in her hands, so he helped to bring the food to the main house.
Maybe the adults told the little one to go home after putting down his things.
Tang Qiyue held Huang Yuanchao's shoulder and said, "Auntie Tang, it's lonely to eat alone. Can Yuanchao accompany Auntie Tang to eat together?"
Huang Yuanchao was already greedy, and when he heard Tang Qiyue's request, he immediately patted his chest and said very righteously: "Aunt Tang, don't worry, I will definitely not let you eat alone!"
Tang Qiuyue was happy and asked him to go to the yard to wash his hands.
After the two of them sat down, Tang Qiyue handed a pancake to Huang Yuanchao and said, "How about I try the braised pork belly your mother made, and you try the pancakes Aunt Tang made?"
Huang Yuanchao's mouth was watering, and he had no time to speak or answer. He nodded vigorously and took a bite of the fragrant egg pancake.
The child was growing up, and he probably hadn't eaten enough before, so his little mouth was stuffed with biscuits.
The taste of the fragrant eggs is indeed very tempting, but it is not that amazing when you put it in your mouth. Fortunately, Tang Qiyue’s cooking skills are good, and the pancakes she makes are soft and golden. For Huang Yuanchao, who has been eating coarse grains for a long time, this is delicious beyond his comprehension.
Tang Qiuyue ate a piece of braised pork with preserved vegetables. Perhaps the fishy smell of the wild boar meat was not processed well enough. Although preserved vegetables are considered to be strong-flavored dried vegetables, unfortunately there were not enough star anise and rice wine, which resulted in the dish still lacking a lot.
Fortunately, Tang Qiyue also knew that the fact that the meat was sent over meant that the other party had put in a lot of effort, so Tang Qiyue still praised them a few words.
Huang Yuanchao was very happy when he heard his mother's cooking being praised as delicious.
The two of them finished all the food. Huang Yuanchao held his stomach and felt a little embarrassed. He had never felt so embarrassed before.
Tang Qiyue didn't laugh at him, and pretended not to see his embarrassing hiccups.
I washed the bowl that Huang Yuanchao had given me with the braised pork with preserved vegetables. Since there was no good dish at home to give as a return gift, I put a bag of peach cakes in the bowl. This thing is durable and can be considered a good return gift.
"Okay, Aunt Tang is busy, so I won't keep you here. Go back and thank your mother for me!"
Huang Yuanchao also wanted to go back and show off, so he ran away with the bowl in his arms.
Tang Qiyue breathed a sigh of relief after the little guest left the house.
Fortunately, she has always been very careful. Even when Zhan Zeye was not at home, she did not put too many ultra-modern things in the house, and the things she had exchanged before could all be stored.
After Huang Yuanchao, the little guy, showed up without knocking, Tang Qiyue reminded herself that she should get used to putting away used things in time to avoid revealing any flaws.
You have to know that her identity is problematic to begin with. If someone finds something on her that brings trouble to Zhan Zeye, she is not sure whether Zhan Zeye will still protect her.
This incident did not affect Tang Qiuyue's mood too much. She was not worried about the fragrant eggs. After all, there were many seabirds nesting on the island, and the cafeteria would also use seabird eggs to make soup.
There is no flaw. After this fusion of ingredients from two time and space, Tang Qiuyue is even more interested in the exchange.
Although survival in the apocalyptic plane is difficult, there are so many good things, and she still wants to go to the sea. Oxygen equipment is what she wants to exchange the most, but she doesn't have enough points.
She thought that she must go to the beach today. If she is lucky enough to get a sea snake, wouldn’t that be enough for her to exchange for it?
She was planning to go to the beach later, but the appearance of Coral interrupted her plan.
"Sister Qiyue, the fisherwoman is awake!"
Coral didn't look very happy when she talked about this.
"Then let's go and take a look!"
Tang Qiyue was also concerned about Yu Niang's physical condition. After all, she was the patient whose wounds he had sutured, so he always had to pay attention to her.
Shanhu shook her head: "The fisherwoman asked me to come over because she was afraid you would go over there. Her mother-in-law has brought people home, and she's afraid those people might bump into you!"
Tang Qiyue frowned. She thought the fisherman's husband was an orphan. From the time the accident happened until now, the people in the fishing village couldn't have been unaware of it, and no one from her husband's family showed up.
It was also because Tang Qiuyue didn’t know enough about the fishing village.
Although the island is not big, it is not small either. The villagers in the fishing village do not live together. The fisherman's mother-in-law lives in a remote place and received the news late.
Shanhu pulled Tang Qiyue aside and complained, "The Fisherwoman's family sold her to the fishing village for money. If she wasn't a diver, her mother-in-law would have sold her again because she couldn't have children!"
Tang Qiuyue knows the value of the mermaid, but why can't the fisherman's daughter have children?
"The Fisherwoman is able to survive this time because of you. Her mother-in-law is extremely unreasonable and will definitely pick a fight with you. That's why the Fisherwoman asked me to come here to remind you not to go to the fishing village, and it's best not to go fishing. She's afraid her mother-in-law will block you at the beach!"
Shanhu's reminder did not scare Tang Qiyue. Instead, she wanted to meet a mother-in-law who did not treat her daughter-in-law as a human being!
