Chapter 043 He can afford to support her!
An old lady nearby heard what he said and couldn't help but speak up for Gu Xiaoxi, "This girl just helped repair the rice mill in our village!"
"The rice mill was soaked in water, so there's no need to fix it, just dry it out. This tractor is different."
My mother was optimistic. “What if it gets fixed?”
It's broken anyway, there's no harm in fixing it!
Just as the soldier was about to speak, a soldier ran over and said, "Deputy Battalion Commander Mo, Captain Lu and his men are plundering in the northern valley."
Gu Xiaoxi, who was busy, suddenly heard the three words "Captain Lu" and immediately looked towards the place where the voice came from.
When she saw Deputy Battalion Commander Mo, she searched in her mind for the interpersonal relationships that Lu Jiansen and her two sisters-in-law had told her about, and she quickly realized that this was Liu Meihua's man, the deputy battalion commander of the Fourth Battalion.
When Mo Desheng saw Gu Xiaoxi looking at him, he said sternly, "You are a military wife, not a professional mechanic. You cannot use the people's property to practice your skills. A tractor carries too much effort and hope of the farmers. You are destroying it..."
Gu Xiaoxi was too lazy to listen to the man's preaching and lowered his head to repair it again.
Seeing that Gu Xiaoxi ignored his words, Mo Desheng became upset and walked away.
He was standing next to the tractor and was about to start a reprimand when he heard Gu Xiaoxi making a gesture to the village chief.
"Village Chief, it's fixed! Have someone come and test drive it to see if there's anything wrong with it."
The village chief didn't care what kind of official Mo Desheng was, and hurriedly pulled a man out from the crowd, "Big Gang, go up and try it."
"Okay! Okay!" Dagangzi hurried forward and pushed Mo Desheng aside, "Make way, don't block my way!"
Modsheng's breath suddenly got stuck in his chest, unable to go up or down.
These villagers are so ignorant!
A tractor is not an ordinary machine. Not everyone can repair it. Even at the agricultural machinery station, there are many people who cannot repair it.
He just wanted to see if Lu Jiansen's wife could fix the tractor and whether she would be slapped in the face.
Just when he was thinking that he would go up and give Gu Xiaoxi a good political lesson when the tractor stopped moving, the tractor started to make a "thump thump thump" sound.
When the villagers saw the tractor moving, they happily made way for it.
Dagangzi drove the tractor fifty meters away, then stopped and waved to the village chief in surprise.
"Village Chief, it's done! The tractor has been repaired! It's very easy to drive..."
The village chief was very happy and rushed to the stream to thank her: "My dear lady, thank you so much! You are a great contributor to our village!"
Gu Xiaoxi waved his hands humbly and said, "No, no, the tractor is not seriously broken. It is easy to repair."
Modson: “…”
Seeing Gu Xiaoxi being treated like a VIP by the villagers because he repaired the tractor, he gritted his teeth, turned around and left.
Lu Jiansen is really lucky. He avoided such a dangerous mission last time and married a young and beautiful wife who can repair tractors!
When Gu Xiaoxi returned to the village's grain-drying field, the villagers had already treated her as one of their own and became friends with her.
At noon, the village chief brought two kilograms of freshly milled rice and a catfish weighing three kilograms to Gu Xiaoxi.
An old lady also gave Gu Xiaoxi two eggplants and a bowl of pickled cabbage.
Gu Xiaoxi really wanted to try out his cooking skills, so he called Feng Xia to help him set up a stove at the camp and prepare some fish porridge.
Feng Xia was in charge of lighting the fire and washing the rice, while Gu Xiaoxi was in charge of processing the fish first.
When Feng Xia turned around, she was stunned when she saw Gu Xiaoxi's superb knife skills.
How can someone use a knife so skillfully?
She felt that the fish had been prepared in the short time she was in a daze.
Look at the fish fillet again, it is thin and evenly sliced, and looks very nice!
Gu Xiaoxi was also very satisfied with his masterpiece. He turned to Feng Xia and said, "Sister-in-law, let's make some fish fillet porridge. The remaining fish head and fish meat, together with eggplant, can we make catfish stewed with eggplant?"
Feng Xia nodded in confusion, "Okay, I'll listen to you!"
Looking at Gu Xiaoxi cooking porridge, she thought that today's fish porridge would definitely be delicious!
Facts have proved that this is indeed the case!
Thirty minutes later, when she took her first mouthful of porridge, she felt that the deliciousness of the fish meat almost made her tongue fall off.
She has never eaten such delicious porridge!
When she gets back, she will definitely learn how to do it!
When the people from the first battalion came back, they smelled an alluring aroma from afar. When they returned to the camp and learned that their battalion commander's wife had cooked fish porridge, they all stretched their necks.
People who get close to it inhale the aroma and swallow their saliva.
When Gu Xiaoxi saw Lu Jiansen coming, he immediately handed him a bowl of fish porridge that he had prepared in advance.
"The village chief gave me more than two kilograms of new rice, and I used it to make porridge. It's not enough for everyone, so everyone can just try a little bit!"
Seeing that he was being treated specially, Lu Jiansen's eyes flashed with warmth, and he asked softly, "Have you eaten?"
Gu Xiaoxi nodded and said, "Sister-in-law Feng Xia and I just ate it right after it was cooked. It was quite delicious!"
Yes, she ate it first because she was so curious about what the porridge cooked by Zhou Yi Xiaocheng tasted like!
You know what, it’s really delicious!
The porridge is soft and sticky, and the fish meat is tender and delicious. It leaves a lingering fragrance in your mouth and warms your stomach.
Lu Jiansen took a bite and nodded slightly, "Delicious!"
Gu Xiaoxi looked back and didn't see his brother, so he asked, "Didn't my brother come back with you guys?"
Lu Jiansen took a sip of porridge and answered her: "He didn't have the chance to enjoy it. He was responsible for sending a wounded person to the hospital."
Gu Xiaoxi also felt that her brother was not very lucky, so she said, "There is also catfish stewed with eggplant in the pot, you can try it too."
"Okay!" Lu Jiansen would naturally not miss the dishes made by the little girl. However, he had fish fillet porridge, so he tried some and gave the rest to others.
When the soldiers saw that there was not enough fish porridge to share, they shared it and tasted some.
Those with good eyesight would go to the kitchen early to get steamed buns and sweet potato rice, and then run over to get a taste of the catfish stewed with eggplant.
Li Kun was so satisfied with the meal that he couldn't help but sigh, "It would be great if my sister-in-law could work in the military cafeteria!"
A group of people nearby immediately echoed: "Yes! Sister-in-law is a great cook!"
Lu Jiansen said, "No!"
His little girl doesn't like cooking. She can just cook occasionally. There's no need for her to work in the canteen. He can afford to support her!
Gu Xiaoxi had never thought about working in the cafeteria, so when she heard Lu Jiansen say that, she nodded.
"Yes, no!"
Compared to cooking, she actually likes making and eating snacks more!
But in this day and age, there are not enough ingredients and conditions for people to eat so delicately and exquisitely.
Li Kun was not disappointed when he saw that his sister-in-law did not want to work in the canteen. He wanted to get closer to Captain Gu in the future and go to the battalion commander's house to eat when he had the chance.
