Zhou Suisui plans to grow peppers, tomatoes, celery, cucumbers, eggplants and beans.
I only plant these kinds of vegetables. The vegetable garden is not very big, probably just six ridges. I plan to plant one ridge of each kind every year. I won't plant too much of anything because I won't be able to eat all of them if I plant too much.
After preparing the seeds, they started planting. Two days ago, Zhou Suisui instructed Gu Jingheng to turn the land over.
Now she just needs to dig a hole with a hoe and then sow the seeds.
Today is the weekend, and the eldest and second kids are on vacation. The two of them, plus the third kid, followed behind Zhou Suisui to help her dig the hole and then step on it firmly.
Six ridges is not a lot, but it is indeed a bit tiring to do it.
After working for the whole morning, I finally finished it at noon when the sun was high.
"Let's go home and I'll make ice jelly for you." Zhou Suisui waved his hand and walked forward, with three little ones following behind him.
The eldest and second child have grown so fast in the past two years that they are almost nine years old but are already reaching the shoulders of a one-year-old.
It is now summer and the weather is getting warmer.
Zhou Suisui has already changed into short-sleeved shirts, so he just needs to put on a thin jacket in the morning and evening.
To make ice jelly, you need the original ice jelly seeds, then knead them into powder and let it solidify.
The key to ice jelly is the small ingredients, and Zhou Suisui uses brown sugar syrup as the base.
The ingredients she planned to use were red beans and a watermelon that she pretended to have bought from the city.
Zhou Suisui also plans to make some taro balls, which will taste better with ice jelly.
Taro balls can be made with tapioca starch, sweet potatoes, purple sweet potatoes and sugar.
Finally, add some chopped peanuts, especially cooked peanuts.
The ice jelly is ready.
The four of us share the achievements of the past year together.
The eldest child asked, "Mom, what is this yellow and purple thing? I've never eaten it before, and it tastes pretty good."
"Taro balls, I made them myself."
"Mom, you are so awesome." The eldest, second, and third child have been trained in the art of praising since childhood.
Whatever my mother does is good and deserves praise.
Gu Jingheng was accustomed to praising Zhou Suisui at home, and the other children were more or less influenced by him.
After eating ice jelly, Zhou Suisui started cooking.
Let’s have some noodles with soybean paste for lunch. Actually, Zhou Suisui prefers noodles to rice.
You can just use ready-made noodles, fry some egg sauce, then cut some cucumber shreds and fry some peanuts and put them in, it will be very fragrant.
When Gu Jingheng returned home, he smelled the fragrance of food as soon as he entered the house.
He met Deputy Captain Wu when he just came back.
Wu Jianguo (Deputy Head of the Regiment) said, "Xiao Gu, what do your family cook every day? It smells so good! In comparison, I can hardly eat the food your sister-in-law cooks. Your sister-in-law beats me every day."
Gu Jingheng felt very happy, as his wife was of course the best.
But he still said: "Nothing, just a daily meal."
"By the way, my sister-in-law's cooking skills are really good. I thought about it for a long time when I went to your house for a meal last time."
Gu Jingheng was upset because his family refused to have guests come to dinner.
His wife was already tired enough after a day, and Gu Jingheng didn't want to make her even more tired by cooking.
"My sister-in-law did a good job." Gu Jingheng, who was usually silent in front of others, finally managed to squeeze out such a nice word.
"Hahahahahaha, you kid, are you afraid that I'll go to your house for a free meal?"
"Don't worry, even if I want to go, your sister-in-law won't agree. She will scold me to death." Wu Jianguo said.
Now his wife has a very good relationship with Zhou Sui Sui. They often do things together all day long, so he doesn't dare to bother Zhou Sui Sui.
He doesn't dare, but someone else does.
Li Yunfeng came here after smelling the scent.
"Old Gu, my parents are not at home today, so I have nowhere to eat." Li Yunfeng said to Gu Jingheng in a pitiful manner.
"Political Commissar Li and his aunt are at home. You don't eat at home either, do you? Don't you usually go to the cafeteria to eat? Get out of here and don't come to my house." Gu Jingheng was much more straightforward with Li Yunfeng.
"Old Gu, please have pity on me, a golden bachelor. I don't have a wife and I can't even afford to eat. I'm so pitiful." Li Yunfeng said in a whining tone.
"And I didn't go empty-handed. I brought two cans of food with me to visit your home."
Gu Jingheng took a look and saw that he was holding two cans in his hands. It seemed that this was premeditated.
Gu Jingheng didn't say anything, so Li Yunfeng took it as his agreement.
Anyway, the old saying that those who are thick-skinned will get what they want is true. So what if he is thick-skinned?
There was no way, Zhou Suisui's craftsmanship was so good, he had missed it for a long time.
When Gu Jingheng came back, Zhou Suisui found that there was a little tail following him.
"Hello sister-in-law, this is for you." Li Yunfeng greeted them sensibly.
"Hello, it's time for dinner. Please sit down and eat something." Zhou Suisui said.
"Okay, sister-in-law, I won't be polite then." Li Yunfeng sat down happily without any hesitation.
This generous and straightforward personality is quite likable.
I didn't expect that Political Commissar Li and his wife, who look so serious, could raise such a lively child.
It would be great if Da Wa and the others could be as positive and cheerful as Li Yunfeng when they grow up.
His mentality has changed, and Zhou Suisui now looks at Li Yunfeng as if he were his own son.
Li Yunfeng suddenly felt a little creepy and his back felt cold.
"Sister-in-law...sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?"
Why was he staring at him? Didn’t he see that Gu Jingheng’s daggers were about to kill him?
"It's okay. You look fine. Come and eat. I made some noodles with soybean paste for lunch. I didn't know you were coming. I wonder if it suits your taste."
