Lu Zhanlin's thoughts were lost in the memories of last night.
Without him even noticing, the hard facial lines softened silently, and a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
Xu Feng was watching from the side, and suddenly he got goose bumps all over his body, which was disgusting.
Are all married people going to become like this?
"land--"
Just as Xu Feng was about to speak, Lu Zhanlin suddenly returned to his original appearance. His cold black eyes were full of frost, and the previous gentleness and tenderness suddenly disappeared. There was even a hint of murderousness between his brows, as if he had seen an enemy.
Before Xu Feng could ask what was going on, Lu Zhanlin spoke first.
"Xu Feng, after training today, go to my office. There is a bag of wedding candy in the left drawer. Chu Yue and I gave it to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Zhanlin stretched out his long legs and strode out.
In front of him was a shooting training ground with danger warning signs, and it was a place that ordinary people could not enter.
When Xu Feng heard that there was wedding candy, specially for him, he didn't care about Lu Zhanlin's sudden departure.
"That's more like it."
He was talking cheerfully, but when he turned around he saw an unexpected person - He Meijiao.
She is a medical worker, and the training of new recruits requires medical workers to rotate on site.
Thinking that Lu Zhanlin was in the recruit training camp, she took the initiative to sign up.
He Meijiao was wearing a military uniform with a white coat over it and carrying a medicine box on her back. She was walking towards us in a hurry.
When she saw Xu Feng, she asked, "Where is Captain Lu? He was clearly here just now, why did he leave?"
Xu Feng rolled his eyes in his heart. Why else would Lu Zhanlin leave suddenly? Just to avoid you!
You are such a good guy, Lu Zhanlin... You are clearly a brother from the same trench, fighting together when there were bullets flying everywhere, but now you abandon your brothers and run away just because of a woman!
Xu Feng really had a lot of pain in his heart but couldn't express it.
He wanted to run away, too.
"Hey hey hey! That soldier! How do you run? Your form is wrong!"
Xu Feng pointed at the recruits who were doing a 3,000-meter march on the training ground and rushed over quickly, fearing that he would stay with He Meijiao for even a second longer!
Two living people suddenly disappeared in front of He Meijiao. It was the same for Lu Zhanlin and Xu Feng. Everyone was laughing at her!
She was so angry that her face was distorted and she stomped her feet hard on the spot!
It must be Chu Yue who was spreading rumors in front of Lu Zhanlin. Lu Zhanlin clearly never treated her like this before!
…
This afternoon.
Thanks to Lu Zhanlin's help the night before, there was not much farm work left in the yard. Chu Yue simply turned the soil, took out some seeds suitable for sowing in winter from the space, and chose an area that was neither too big nor too small to start a pilot planting.
Then he took some water from the Lingquan River, put it in a bucket, and asked Lu Yuanbao to use a ladle to sprinkle the water on the place where the seeds were sown.
"Be careful not to get your pants wet, or you'll freeze to death."
Chu Yue instructed, then turned and went into the house.
When she came out again, she was holding a charcoal stove made of yellow mud. In the stove was the red charcoal left over from making lunch. She added some new charcoal into it and fanned it gently. The charcoal fire became red and burned vigorously.
Finally, put a wire mesh on the charcoal fire and a small charcoal stove is ready.
Chu Yue placed the small charcoal stove on the ground, took out a handful of high mountain oil chestnuts from the bag, cut a small hole in the plumpest part of the chestnut with a knife, and then placed it on the wire mesh of the charcoal stove.
The red charcoal fire roasted the brown shell of the chestnut, and soon there was a sizzling sound and the tempting aroma of roasted chestnuts.
As the chestnuts become more ripe, the brown shell shrinks and the soft and glutinous chestnuts inside expand. You can hear a "crackling" sound, and the small hole at the beginning is stretched open and becomes a big hole.
The oil chestnut bounced on the wire mesh, and the beige chestnut meat "jumped" out directly, without the need to peel the shell by hand.
In addition to chestnuts, Chu Yue also placed a few small potatoes and some peanuts on the wire mesh, and from time to time a "sizzling" sound could be heard.
Chu Yue sat on a stool, basking in the warm winter sun and smelling the delicious food. It was a comfortable life she had never had before due to the high-intensity overtime work.
She couldn't help but squint her eyes, feeling the beauty of life in the present moment.
Lu Yuanbao watered the plants, put down the bucket and walked over. The chestnuts on the wire mesh were just ripe and bounced up with a "bang", which scared him and made his black eyes widen.
Chu Yue looked at Lu Yuanbao and waved at him, "What are you standing there for? Come over here and eat some chestnuts."
She picked up a roasted chestnut, which was a little hot, and blew on it near her mouth. After it cooled down, she handed it to Lu Yuanbao.
This time, Chu Yue didn't need to say "open your mouth", Lu Yuanbao had already opened his mouth automatically, waiting for Chu Yue to feed him.
When I put the steaming chestnuts into my mouth, the tip of my tongue burned a little, but the fragrance in my mouth was so tempting.
Lu Yuanbao used his tongue to push the hot chestnut, changing its position in his mouth a few times, and then, with a huffing breath, he could not help but bite it down anxiously.
A moment.
The expression on Lu Yuanbao's face froze.
Chu Yue raised her eyebrows and smiled brightly, "Is it delicious?"
Lu Yuanbao was so delicious that he was speechless. The roasted chestnuts were soft and sticky, powdery and a little sweet, just like the softest white sugar cake.
It’s so delicious!
"It's a pity that there are no osmanthus flowers in this season. If there were osmanthus flowers, it would be even more delicious to make osmanthus sugar fried chestnuts."
Chu Yue handed Lu Yuanbao the bamboo clips used to pick up chestnuts. "Pick them up and eat them. When the shells pop open, they're ripe."
"Okay, I understand."
Lu Yuanbao squatted beside the yellow mud charcoal stove, looking at the chestnuts on the iron net, and occasionally turned the chestnuts with bamboo clips to make the heat more even and cook faster.
Chu Yue took a small knife and cut open half of the chestnuts, then placed them next to Lu Yuanbao and let him roast and eat them himself. She continued to process the remaining half of the chestnut, prying out a small corner with a small knife, and then peeling out the whole raw chestnut.
It’s round and plump, like a tumbler.
The oil chestnut is not only delicious when roasted, but also delicious when eaten raw.
Crunchy and sweet, a completely different taste.
Chu Yue peeled chestnuts not to eat them raw, but to prepare them for making chestnut roast chicken later. The tender chicken meat and soft chestnuts made a pot of thick stewed chicken, which made people drool just thinking about it.
She worked quickly and finished processing all the chestnuts in no time.
Chu Yue looked up and saw a pile of roasted, shelled, fragrant golden chestnuts in front of her, and Lu Yuanbao's ingratiating smile.
The child became familiar with her and was no longer silent as before. He had an idea in his mind.
Chu Yue picked up the chestnut and threw it into her mouth. "Go ahead, what do you want to tell me?"
