“Brother-in-law!”
During the time Tang Xiuyuan was on the island, he heard about Zhan Zeye from many people. He went from looking down on him at first to admiring him later.
Seeing Zhan Zeye at this time, Tang Xiuyuan became much more polite.
Zhan Zeye hummed, picked up the rabbit and asked Tang Qiyue: "How do we do this?"
Tang Qiyue looked at him, but instead of answering, she asked him, "Have you eaten?"
Zhan Zeye shook his head: "I was busy just now, and there was no food in the cafeteria!"
Tang Qiyue knew this was the case, otherwise Zhan Zeye would not have returned with ingredients, but with food.
"Then you take care of it. Xiaoyuan, go light the fire. I'll prepare the side dishes and they'll be ready in no time!"
Tang Xiuyuan was indeed 70% full at this time, and went to the kitchen to help obediently.
Zhan Zeye originally wanted to say that he would just take a bite, but when he heard Tang Qiyue say that she wanted to cook, he only thought about it for a moment before nodding and twisting the rabbit's neck.
Skinning was easy. Zhan Zeye seemed very skilled. He drew a circle on the rabbit's leg, cut a hole in it, and pulled the rabbit skin hard. The whole rabbit skin was easily peeled off.
Rabbit meat is pure lean meat and has a strong fishy smell. The rabbit meat made by people who don’t know how to cook it is completely inedible. Fortunately, Tang Qiuyue planned to stir-fry the rabbit meat.
The chili peppers at home are ready, as well as the onions, ginger and garlic sent from the kitchen.
Tang Qiuyue was very skillful. She cut the dried chilies into sections, cut the fresh chilies, and prepared the ginger and garlic. Thinking that a rabbit didn't have much meat, she also took four potatoes.
It’s not that she wants to treat the side dish as the main meal, it’s just that Zhan Zeye has a big appetite.
When Zhan Zeye brought the rabbit into the house, Tang Qiyue had already prepared all the side dishes. She took the rabbit from Zhan Zeye.
With a flick of the knife, pieces of rabbit meat were chopped.
Just then, Tang Xiuyuan cleaned the pot and heated it up. Tang Qiyue poured some oil into it, threw the rabbit meat in, and stir-fried it over high heat.
After the water is dried, add the onion, ginger, and garlic, and even add a spoonful of chili sauce for the flavor.
The aroma instantly filled the kitchen.
Tang Xiuyuan kept sniffing.
He has never liked eating rabbit, not only because there is not much rabbit meat, but also because the rabbit meat cooked by ordinary people is really not tasty. But today he felt hungry again after just filling his stomach.
After pouring in the peppers and potatoes, Tang Qiuyue added a little water, covered the pot and simmered it for a while. Then she added salt and stir-fried it quickly, and the aroma exploded again.
Afraid that there wouldn’t be enough pancakes, Tang Qiuyue baked a few more pancakes while the rabbit was stewing.
The rabbit was put out on a plate, and Tang Xiuyuan was so useless that he just threw a pancake into the pot.
"Sister, brother-in-law, you guys go eat first, I'll clean the bottom of the pot!"
Tang Xiuyuan didn't think there was anything wrong with his behavior. He wiped the soup from the bottom of the pot with great pride, then rolled up the pancake and stuffed it into his mouth.
Tang Qiyue was too lazy to pay attention to him and returned to the table.
This time with Zhan Zeye joining, Tang Xiuyuan did not chat endlessly with Tang Qiyue. Both of them were concentrating on eating.
Tang Qiuyue herself was not particularly hungry, so she ate two pancakes and stopped eating. She just watched the two men finish a large plate of stir-fried rabbit meat.
In the end, Tang Xiuyuan even wiped the plates clean with a pancake.
"Sister, your cooking skills are simply amazing. I have a feeling that if Uncle Wang knew how good you were at cooking, he would immediately become your disciple!"
As soon as Tang Xiuyuan finished speaking, he was knocked by Tang Qiyue.
"It's time for you to go back. I have two more cans of this hot sauce. Take one can each for you and Brother Xu. I'll make some other seafood sauce tomorrow and send it to you!"
Tang Qiyue sent Tang Xiuyuan away and returned to the house. Zhan Zeye had already washed the dishes and was sitting on a chair under the eaves enjoying the breeze.
"You're not busy today?"
Tang Qiyue handed Zhan Zeye a cup of tea.
I just ate so much, I still need some tea to remove the greasiness.
Zhan Zeye did not refuse, holding the teacup and drinking slowly.
"Old Huang has taken his men out to sea to fish. All the ingredients at Uncle's place have been eaten up. If we don't get some seafood, we'll be hungry this afternoon!"
After hearing this, Tang Qiyue understood why Zhan Zeye brought back a wild rabbit.
Tang Qiyue was helpless.
Even a technician like Tang Xiuyuan has an amazing appetite, not to mention the soldiers led by Zhan Zeye, each with a bigger appetite than the other. Even if the one-eyed uncle prepares more food, it will not be enough for them to consume.
"The boat went out yesterday, so we can buy some food!"
Tang Qiyue remembers that someone sent Dr. Qin and others off the island last night!
Zhan Zeye shook his head: "The food procurement is scheduled and quantitative. On weekdays, we have to pay for it ourselves. The boat that came last night was out to pick us up and it won't be returning. How can there be any supplies sent to us?"
They say live by the sea and eat by the sea.
They have the treasure of the sea, so they will not starve to death.
"Then why don't you go into the sea?"
Tang Qiuyue gave the ball to Zhan Zeye. Given his personality, he would definitely go into the sea.
"That thing you gave me is a water-repellent bead, right? It's amazing! I'm worried we'll be exposed if we go into the sea with them. If you're hungry, I can go into the sea alone later and catch you a big fish!"
Zhan Zeye turned his head and looked at Tang Qiyue, with a gleam in his eyes.
Tang Qiyue was speechless at the name Zhan Zeye had given Xiaoqiu. Naturally, she didn't notice the plea for praise in Zhan Zeye's eyes, so she casually said, "That's fine. Although the fish we catch will spoil easily in this weather, I can make some meat floss and send some to Xiaoyuan!"
Zhan Zeye: ...
He only wanted to feed his young wife and didn't want to care about his cheap brother-in-law.
But since Tang Qiyue said so, he wouldn't object.
"Oh, right, it'll be a while since Qin Mingyue left the island and is back. There are no doctors on the island anymore, so Old Wu asked me to ask if you could take over for a bit at the clinic!"
When Zhan Zeye talked about serious matters, Tang Qiyue directly refused.
"I only have medicine, not medical skills. Besides, there's Zheng Hongjuan in the clinic. Although she's a nurse, she can handle minor illnesses and injuries directly!"
She is a military wife, not a military doctor. Tang Qiyue doesn't want to confuse the two. It's not that she doesn't want to help, it's simply that she has too many secrets. Zhan Zeye can cover for her, but what about others?
She didn't dare to gamble.
Zhan Zeye thought so too.
"Okay, I'll talk to Old Wu, but you have to be careful during this period. I have a feeling Qin Mingyue won't let it go. If she gets her grandfather here, you'll probably be harassed for a while!"
The enthusiasm of medical students is terrifying. Zhan Zeye has seen it before and gave a reminder.
Tang Qiyue teased him, "Why? Even you can't protect me?"
Zhan Zeye raised his hand and pulled her into his arms: "What nonsense are you talking about? You are my wife. If I can't protect you, am I still a man?"
Tang Qiyue lifted Zhan Zeye's chin and said, "Since you performed well, I'll give you a sweet kiss!"
