"Mom, Auntie, have a bowl of pig stomach and chicken soup first."
Yun Huaying had the habit of drinking soup before meals, so she scooped a full bowl for the two of them and divided the rest equally among the four siblings.
Aunt Zhao had watched her make this soup before and had already learned how to make it. She took a sip with great satisfaction and decided on the spot, "I'll buy some pig stomach and chicken this weekend and make a pot of soup for them. This tastes so good, delicious and nourishing."
"Pig intestines and pig stomachs are difficult to clean and smelly, but they taste delicious when eaten." Li Suyao said with a smile.
"Doctor Yun taught me how to wash it today. He used whole grain cornmeal and salt and vinegar. It was very easy to wash and it washed really clean."
Mrs. Zhao learned to cook a few dishes during the last Chinese New Year. Her husband and son both said that her cooking skills have improved. Today, she learned to cook many more dishes, all of which are dishes that may not be available in state-owned restaurants. In the future, when she entertains guests at home, she will finally have a few delicious dishes to serve.
There was a lot of steamed braised pork tonight, with two large bowls for each table. Yun Huaying picked up a piece of meat for each of the two elders and said to Han Zhe with a smile, "Brother Zhe, the bowl in front of you is yours. This one is enough for us."
Han Zhe curled his lips and smiled: "Don't worry, I can finish two more bowls."
The living standards were low those days, the food was low in oil and water, and the troops had a lot of training. Although they could eat their fill, good dishes like braised pork were only available during festivals. With their big appetites, they could easily finish two or three bowls.
Han Lin and Jiao Minmin ate more politely, but not slowly at all. They both liked braised food, and the braised meat and braised pig ears in the middle were their favorites.
"Pretty auntie."
Tiaotiao came skipping over with a bowl in his hand. When Mrs. Zhao saw him, she asked, "Why don't you eat at home?"
"Grandma, they took advantage of me because I was little and only gave me two pieces of meat. I didn't eat enough."
His grandparents were not at home, so his cleverness and intelligence were useless in front of his father and second uncle. He could not compete with them for food, and his mother's help was useless, so he just brought the bowl over and ate for free.
"You two rascals, you're stealing the children's food! You really deserve a beating." Madam Zhao scolded him with a smile, and beckoned him, "Come on, sit next to Grandma."
As soon as he sat down, Yun Huaying put the braised pork in his bowl and smiled faintly: "Tiaotiao, eat quickly."
"Thank you, Auntie."
Tiaotiao sat on a small stool and saw Han Zhe eating meat opposite him with big mouthfuls. He stuffed a piece of meat as big as his face into his mouth in one gulp. He was so greedy that his saliva came out, and he immediately grabbed the meat and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Eat it with chopsticks, don't use your hands. It will be full of oil and will stain your clothes and be difficult to wash." Mrs. Zhao taught him.
"I washed my hands and I can't hold it firmly." Tiao Tiao had a reason.
"Don't get it on your clothes. Eat slowly."
“Beep…beep…”
The phone on the small table next to her rang at this moment. Li Suyao picked it up and answered: "Hello, who is this?"
"Mom." Han Zheng's voice came from the other side.
When she heard it was the second child, Li Suyao didn't say a word and directly handed the microphone to her daughter-in-law: "Huaying, Zhengzi's phone number."
Yun Huaying immediately put down her bowl and chopsticks, stood up and walked over to answer the phone. Just as she put the microphone to her ear, before she could say anything, a resentful voice came from the other side: "Wife."
"Did you make many calls before you found me?" Yun Huaying said with a smile.
"yes."
After completing the task, Han Zheng immediately called her office and learned that she had gone to Haicheng. He then immediately called Xu Yanzhe and learned from him that she had arrived in Jinling. He then immediately called his uncle and finally called home.
Yun Huaying asked with a smile, "Have you eaten yet? Is the mission completed?"
"I just finished dinner. It's done, but there are still some trivial matters that need to be taken care of. It may take another three to five days. When will you be back?"
"I'll stay for two or three days and then go back."
It's a rare opportunity for her to come here, and Yun Huaying actually wants to stay longer, but she has things to do at the municipal hospital, so she can't take too long a leave.
"I'll come find you after I finish my work here." Han Zheng is now in the southernmost part of the country. He has to pass through Province X on his way back to Beijing. He plans to take a vacation to accompany her for a few days.
"Okay, let's meet at the city hospital."
Han Zheng heard a lot of people talking on the other end of the phone and asked her, "Are there many people at home?"
"Well, we are having dinner. Aunt Zhao and I prepared two tables of delicious food this afternoon and invited all the division leaders to come over for dinner."
When Han Zheng thought of his wife's cooking skills, his throat couldn't help rolling, "Wife, I want to eat too."
"I'll make it for you later." Yun Huaying smiled faintly.
"They must have one portion of all the dishes they eat."
Han Zheng could smell the fragrance through the phone, and heard Tiaotiao saying that the braised pork was delicious. Although he had just eaten, the food tasted average, but now just thinking about her steamed braised pork made his mouth water.
"Okay." Yun Huaying agreed.
"Huaying, I heard from Xu Yanzhe that the old poisonous woman has been caught. When can you find time to marry me?"
They had agreed beforehand that they would hold the wedding as soon as Dou Laifeng was arrested. Yun Huaying kept her word, but there were some things she needed to discuss. She smiled at her mother-in-law and said to her, "Do you also want to give the elders a big surprise like Xiao Ge and his wife, and not have our parents organize the wedding for us?"
"No." Li Suyao was the first to disagree, shouting at the other end of the phone: "Stinky boy, if you learn to be like Xiaozi, I will ask Shaofan to hide Huaying."
Han Zheng: "...Is this my biological mother?"
"Heh." Yun Huaying chuckled softly, her bright eyes filled with smiles as she said to him, "But I want my parents to help us with the arrangements. I'm not good at socializing, and I don't like handling trivial matters. I just want to be a beautiful bride."
Han Zheng agreed to his wife's wish without hesitation: "Okay, I'll listen to you. Let my parents take care of it and let them have some fun."
His wife is really filial. She must have known what his parents were thinking and said that on purpose.
Han Zheng is actually a filial person. When his eldest brother and sister-in-law got married, his parents rushed over. Although all the wedding supplies were prepared and the invitations were sent out one by one, they still reviewed them personally despite being tired and enjoyed the process of arranging the wedding for their son.
He was thinking about this at the time. When they got married, they must give their parents a chance to have fun.
Li Suyao was very happy listening to her daughter-in-law's words, her eyes were smiling, and Han Zhangping, who was sitting in the main seat next to her, was also very happy to see her.
Parents all hope that their children will get married and start their own families soon, and are willing to arrange their weddings. Although these arrangements are somewhat trivial and require various preparations and purchases in advance, and are busy and tiring, they are tired but happy.
Previously, Han Xiao and Long Wei held their wedding in Kyoto. The couple rushed there to attend the wedding like guests. It was not until the wedding day that they met Long Wei's parents, grandparents and other elders. At that time, they solemnly apologized to them, fearing that their son had been inconsiderate and treated them poorly.
Fortunately, the Long family members are all open-minded and get along well with the Han family. In the end, both parents treated themselves as VIP guests who came to the wedding, and after having fun, they washed their hands and started eating.
