Chapter 067: Earn more military merits and give her a better life
She cut half of the pig's large intestine that she had washed earlier, then moved her fingers, sorted the garbage, and stuffed the dirty stuff that had been washed out earlier back into the pig's large intestine perfectly.
Afterwards, she took out two pieces of straw from the new product showroom, tied the pig intestines to them and took them out.
The smell of pig intestines was not pleasant, and several people who had taken a bath took a few steps away.
But the old lady took it and reluctantly took out two dirty pennies from her handkerchief and gave them to Gu Xiaoxi.
Gu Xiaoxi's mouth twitched slightly, and he said calmly: "Forget it, I don't need these two cents. Just give it to Deputy Tuan's children. Let's go back and rest early!"
After saying this, she turned around and went into the house.
The others were also very interested and soon dispersed.
Lu Jiansen closed the courtyard door and then returned to the kitchen.
Seeing that his wife was already skimming the oil residue from the oil, he hurried over to help.
"I'll do it!"
Gu Xiaoxi did not refuse. She moved aside, finished the remaining pork liver and lean meat soup in her bowl, and went to knead the dough.
She planned to make some dumplings before going to bed so that she wouldn't have to get up early tomorrow.
Lu Jiansen put the boiled lard aside to cool, then washed his hands and came over to help the little girl roll out the dumpling wrappers.
"Don't worry about me if you encounter something like that in the future. Your own comfort is the most important thing!"
Lu Jiansen knew very well that the little girl had spoken in a hurry because she didn't want to embarrass him!
Gu Xiaoxi looked up at him and said seriously, "If I can kill a wild boar in the future, I will never give it away. I want to enjoy it quietly and you can't blame me when the time comes."
Lu Jiansen pursed his lips slightly, smiled and nodded, "Okay. I'll listen to you from now on!"
Gu Xiaoxi raised his chin and felt a little happy!
After making fifty dumplings filled with pork, she washed her hands and went to bed.
When Lu Jiansen cleaned the kitchen, took a shower and returned to the room, he found that the little girl had fallen asleep.
He tiptoed onto the bed, leaned over and kissed her on the cheek, then let her fall asleep!
…
The next day.
Gu Xiaoxi had a rare nap. After the army's wakeup call sounded, she slept for two hours with her head covered.
After getting up and washing up, she found that Lu Jiansen had still prepared breakfast for her. In the pot were a few steamed dumplings that he had kept warm over the residual fire, a soft white flour bun, and an egg.
Gu Xiaoxi felt warm in her heart. While eating breakfast, she glanced at the accompanying small space.
But this glance made her dumbfounded.
Originally there were only twenty chicks in the small space, but now it is packed with chickens, big and small, and there are so many of them that there is no room for them to move.
There were vegetables growing on the ground in the small space, but now they were trampled into a mess by the chickens.
In a corner of the small space, there is a pile of eggs.
After coming to her senses, she quickly picked out the eggs.
Then, she started killing chickens!
These chickens were multiplying too fast, and she was afraid that if she didn't kill them, this small space would be packed with them!
After killing forty chickens in a row, she quickly made her own breakfast and then boiled water to pluck the chickens.
With so many chickens, it would take her a lot of time just to pluck their feathers.
Seeing that it was almost noon, she braised a chicken first, picked some vegetables in the small space and stir-fried them, made shredded green peppers and potatoes, stewed a pork rib soup with winter melon, and finally made stir-fried pork intestines.
To go with these dishes, she steamed rice and then cut the remaining chicken into specific parts: the chicken head, chicken neck, chicken legs, chicken gizzards, chicken meat, etc. were all separated and packaged individually.
Just when she had almost finished dealing with the matter, Lu Jiansen came back.
Coming back with him was Gu Dachuan, who was carrying a box of braised pork.
Both of them were a little surprised when they saw the sumptuous lunch on the table.
Gu Dachuan took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Sister, what good day is today? How come you are so rich?"
Gu Xiaoxi glanced at him, then went to the kitchen and brought out another plate of spicy rabbit meat.
"Is it fuller now?" Gu Xiaoxi teased him.
Gu Dachuan nodded vigorously, "Yes! It's so grand! Not even during Chinese New Year is this grand!"
"Eat more while we still have food!"
"Okay! If you can't finish it, I'll come over to eat in the evening." Gu Dachuan was so happy.
It’s good to have a younger sister around!
Lu Jiansen raised his hand and gently rubbed the little girl's head. "Don't cook so many dishes in the future. You can eat them first when they are ready. You don't have to wait for us."
Gu Xiaoxi pursed her lips and smiled, "I'm just happy today, celebrating."
Seeing that she was really happy, Lu Jiansen took out two hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to her.
"This is a reward from the army."
"Great! I'm even happier today." Gu Xiaoxi counted the money again and again with a smile, treating it like a treasure.
The corners of Lu Jiansen's lips lifted unconsciously. The bright and moving smile on the little girl's face was like a ray of sunshine, which made him slightly dazzled.
He suddenly felt that he must work harder in the future, accumulate more military merits, and give her a better life!
He hoped that she could always smile so happily and lively when she was by his side.
Gu Xiaoxi had no idea that Lu Jiansen had made such a great determination at this moment to give her a good life in the future. Her thoughts had already wandered far away.
She was thinking, since the small companion space can be used for breeding and planting, could she grow some rice or wheat?
Although the area in a small space is small, growing some food can add up to a lot!
She did what she said. After Lu Jiansen and her brother went to the army in the afternoon, she went out carrying a military green cross-body bag.
Rice seeds were hard to buy and she didn't want much, so she decided to look for them in the farmlands near Tangling Town that had just been harvested.
It's no wonder that she was lucky. Before she even reached the farmland, she saw a small pile of rotten rice on the side of the road.
It looked like someone had scooped the rice out from a ditch after a heavy rain a few days ago. The rice was mixed with a lot of silt and weeds.
She used the garbage sorting function to clean out the rice inside, replaced the old with the new, and sprinkled it into the accompanying small space.
But the remaining chickens in the small space thought their owner was feeding them, so they ran over happily and pecked at the rice on the ground.
Gu Xiaoxi: “…”
It was her fault that she hadn't considered it carefully enough!
Maybe she should divide the small space up, half for growing vegetables and half for raising chickens?
As soon as the thought came to her mind, she found that a white light suddenly flashed in the small space, directly dividing the originally small space into two, and adding a barrier formed by white mist in the middle.
At this glance, this small space looks even smaller.
However, she was content.
She found some rice around and selected rice seedlings from the old-for-new option. She then filled the newly-opened vegetable-growing area with water, turning it into a mini paddy field, and planted the rice seedlings.
Because of the small area, Gu Xiaoxi felt like she was playing a game. In addition, everything in the small space could be controlled with consciousness alone, so she never got tired of it.
After walking around outside, she was about to go back, but she saw a green military truck passing by on the road ahead from a distance.
She just glanced casually, but unexpectedly saw two unpleasant figures.
