Chapter 203 Happy Chicken, Again
The next day.
Lu Xingchen went out for training before dawn.
Jiang Zhizhi got up early for a rare occasion, and as usual, he performed a set of martial arts boxing in the small courtyard.
There was breakfast in the pot that Lu Xingchen had brought back. Jiang Zhizhi hummed a little tune happily, enjoying being fed by her husband.
Today, a purchasing vehicle from the camp went to the city for purchasing. Jiang Zhizhi took a ride and went to the city to mail the manuscript.
The young warriors who were shopping for cars were particularly enthusiastic and chatted with the military wives along the way.
Jiang Zhizhi sat at the outermost seat, listening to the gossip told by his sisters-in-law with a smile.
After arriving in the city, Jiang Zhizhi went to the post office first and dropped the stamped envelope into the mailbox.
Before going back, Jiang Zhizhi took out some flower seeds, two large grass carps, five kilograms of pork, and two kilograms of apples from the space and put them in the backpack.
The purchasing truck arrived at the gathering point ahead of time. Many sisters-in-law noticed that Jiang Zhizhi's backpack looked heavy when he came back this time. They couldn't help but smack their lips in amazement, thinking that Captain Lu's wife was really generous.
If you marry a daughter-in-law like this, she will sooner or later bankrupt the family!
Many people also think that since Captain Lu and Jiang Zhizhi don’t have any children yet, there is no burden at home and it is normal for them to live a good life.
Unlike them, who have many children and bear the burden of the family, they live a very difficult life and are lucky enough to have meat to eat once a month.
After returning home, Jiang Zhizhi nourished all the seeds he bought with spiritual spring water, and they could be planted in the ground in a few days.
Now the house is full of things, and Jiang Zhizhi feels very happy, like a little squirrel that loves to hoard supplies.
Jiang Zhizhi stood in the small courtyard, sighing that this little home was getting better and better.
Seeing that there was nothing to do at home, Jiang Zhizhi changed into a neat set of clothes, put a backpack on his back and went straight up the mountain.
Nong Chunhua happened to be going up the mountain as well, so when she saw Jiang Zhizhi, she called out to her eagerly.
Then he took Jiang Zhizhi up the mountain along another path.
Along the way, Nong Chunhua told Jiang Zhizhi without reservation which places were easy to dig wild vegetables and which places were easier to find mushrooms.
Nong Chunhua is very capable and not afraid of hard work. Almost everyone in the family compound knows her.
Although Nong Chunhua has never been to school, she has a cheerful personality and gets along well with most people.
As they walked, many military wives came to greet Nong Chunhua. Nong Chunhua introduced Jiang Zhizhi to everyone as the wife of Battalion Commander Lu.
Jiang Zhizhi smiled, and as she walked she found mugwort. She squatted down happily. The mugwort had well-developed root systems, so she could dig it up directly.
So Jiang Zhizhi took a small shovel and gently dug at the roots of the mugwort, leaving some moist soil at the roots of the mugwort. After returning home, she processed the mugwort and placed it in the small yard to bask in the sun. Later, she planned to make mugwort wool and mugwort bags.
Nong Chunhua dug a basket of wild vegetables. She turned around and saw Jiang Zhizhi digging mugwort excitedly not far away. She asked in confusion, "Sister Zhi, mugwort leaves can't be eaten as vegetables, why are you digging so much?"
"Mugwort is not only used for food, but also has the effects of regulating qi and blood, avoiding cold and dampness, warming the meridians and stopping bleeding, beautifying the skin, relieving shoulder and leg pain, improving sleep quality, and repelling mosquitoes."
"I plan to make Chinese herbal medicine bags when I get back. Of course, you can also use mugwort to soak your feet, which is good for your health."
Nong Chunhua exclaimed: "There are so many benefits, Sister Zhi, you really know a lot."
"Hey, it's just right that someone will send you a pillow when you feel sleepy. My husband, Lao Liang, has been complaining about leg pain recently. Sometimes he tosses and turns at night and can't fall asleep. So I'll dig some mugwort and bring it back for him and the kids to soak their feet."
Jiang Zhizhi also told Sister Chunhua how to clean the dirt on the mugwort and how to dry it in the sun.
This made Nong Chunhua admire her very much. Zhimei's mind was really quick.
"No wonder Xiao Lu protects you like the apple of his eye. With such a great daughter-in-law, he, as a husband, is very proud."
When going down the mountain, Jiang Zhizhi grabbed two pheasants from space and knocked them unconscious, then threw them out of space with her mind control. Then she quickly picked up the pheasants when no one was paying attention to her.
A few minutes later.
"Sister Zhi, how come you are so lucky to find something good the first time you go up the mountain!"
"Are all the pheasants hanging around here?"
"Let's go and try our luck."
Seeing the wonderful expressions on Nong Chunhua and the other sisters-in-law's faces, Jiang Zhizhi shamelessly tied the two pheasants' feet and wings with straw ropes and said with a smile, "God has rewarded us with food."
Jiang Zhizhi was in a particularly good mood after returning home with a full load. He processed the mugwort skillfully and placed it on a flat winnowing basket to dry.
Afterwards she slaughtered two pheasants, one for eating today and the other for making salt-baked chicken.
These are easy to accomplish for a special forces soldier who is always on missions in the field.
When Lu Xingchen came back, the water in the pot was still warm, so he quickly took over the work.
Jiang Zhizhi specially made cold spicy shredded chicken tonight. The spicy taste made Lu Xingchen squint his eyes happily.
The bright red color whets the appetite. The skin is crispy, the meat is tender, and the strips of pheasant meat are not dry at all. Lu Xingchen happily ate three bowls of rice.
Jiang Zhizhi ate the chicken happily and also had a big bowl of rice.
Jiang Zhizhi was so amused that he couldn't stop giggling. He touched his belly and wondered, "I eat more and my belly is bulging. You eat so much but it doesn't bulge at all. Where did all the food go?"
"It's really delicious!" Lu Xingchen smiled and kissed his wife's cheek, "If you keep going like this, I'll get fat sooner or later."
"Our eldest brother-in-law mentioned today that you have spoiled his appetite recently. He urged Old Dang to improve quickly and not lose to his sister in cooking."
Jiang Zhizhi laughed and said, "I left some shredded chicken for my brother. I'm sending it to him as a midnight snack. I hope you two can grow up strong. That will make me happy."
The young couple went for a walk outside after dinner. The evening breeze blew across Jiang Zhizhi's fair cheeks. A few strands of hair fell down, making her cheeks itchy.
Lu Xingchen hooked her hair with his slender fingertips and tucked it behind her ears, and the two of them walked hand in hand under the moonlight.
Seeing this, Nong Chunhua quickly nudged Liang Zhirong's arm with her elbow and praised with a smile, "Xiao Lu and Zhi Meizi have such a good relationship."
Even though everyone says Captain Lu is fierce, he is not fierce at all towards the girl he loves.
After receiving the food from his sister, Jiang Wang'e glared fiercely at his comrades who were rushing over after smelling the scent.
Even Gu Qingpei couldn't help but stick his head out and thought, can you blame me?
It’s all because Lao Jiang insisted on eating delicious food so late at night that it makes people cry.
Which company has the best fire-stirring technology?
It depends on which battalion one and battalion two are the strongest!
.......
Time goes by day by day.
"Editor-in-Chief, I received five letters today. They are probably all submissions."
The editor-in-chief of China Daily sat in a chair, looking through the names of the contributors in order until he saw the name he had been mentioning but had never seen.
——Jiang Zhizhi.
The editor immediately opened the envelope, carefully took out the manuscript and read it, becoming more and more excited the more he read.
The emotions expressed between the lines are so strong that if this letter had a sound, it would surely make one's eardrums ache.
“This one is decided right away!”
With such good writing style, powerful writing skills, strict logic, and yet still a sense of inspiration, I can't find a better manuscript than this one in this period of time.
The person delivering the letter widened his eyes in astonishment. What on earth was contained in this article?
This actually made Chief Editor Hao, who is always known for his strictness, smile and be extremely excited.
Three days later, the military district leaders received today's China Daily.
And in the family compound, a very young postman was riding a bicycle, rushing over with a clanging sound.
Many people in the family compound couldn't help gossiping.
"This direction leads to the old family compound. Who are you looking for?"
