Chapter 178 Wife, it’s an emergency meeting

Since there was chicken soup, she took out a small piece of salted meat and made a dry pot of salted meat and shredded cabbage.

Seeing that the little girl had prepared the meal, Lu Jiansen reminded her, "Eat first. You don't have to wait for us."

"Oh!" Gu Xiaoxi filled a bowl of chicken soup, took a sip, and then ran to Lu Jiansen again.

"Do you want to try it?"

A smile flashed across Lu Jiansen's eyes, and he took a sip of the chicken soup from where the little girl was drinking it.

“It’s delicious!”

"Yeah! Then drink more."

As she spoke, she fed Lu Jiansen the entire bowl of chicken soup, and then she went to get another bowl for herself.

Lu Jiansen looked at the little girl drinking chicken soup contentedly, and his eyes couldn't help but glance at her rosy lips.

After taking a few deep breaths, he couldn't help but speed up the bricklaying process.

After drinking the chicken soup, Gu Xiaoxi ate half a bowl of rice and a piece of steamed sweet potato, and then went back to his carpentry work.

This time, she made ten circular heat-insulating pads to prevent the bottoms of casseroles and overheated bowls from burning the kitchen countertops.

Then she used wooden boards to nail together two simple wooden boxes and packed the charcoal in the bags into the boxes.

This makes it easy to take and most importantly, it looks clean and tidy.

After Lu Jiansen built the stove, he built a sink for washing vegetables in the kitchen and re-made the drainage ditch.

After finishing his work, he washed his hands and had dinner.

Gu Dachuan also came to the kitchen at this time, but he didn't eat first. Instead, he drank two bowls of chicken soup happily.

Just as he picked up the bowl to serve the rice, the army's emergency assembly call suddenly sounded.

Gu Dachuan's action of serving rice froze.

Lu Jiansen finished his bowl of rice in a few mouthfuls and said to the little girl who was still listening to the bugle call: "Wife, it's an emergency meeting. I have to go. Go to bed early tonight and remember to close the door."

Gu Xiaoxi nodded quickly, "I understand. Please be careful."

As she spoke, she quickly washed her hands and rolled a rice ball for her brother in ten seconds.

Gu Dachuan's depression was finally relieved a little.

"Sister, remember to close the door at night. I'm on a mission right now and may not be back at night."

After giving some instructions, Gu Dachuan ran away.

Lu Jiansen gently rubbed the little girl's head and left immediately.

Gu Xiaoxi sighed. If she had known earlier, she would have let them eat first and then clean the kitchen.

She suspected that Lu Jiansen had not eaten enough.

From now on, no matter what the situation is, when it’s time to eat, we must let them eat first.

After tidying up the kitchen a little, she went to see the chefs who were still setting up the new kang.

The masters worked very quickly, and the kang near the left wall was almost finished.

Seeing Gu Xiaoxi coming in, a master chef said to her, "Deputy Colonel Lu asked us to make a kang on each side. We will finish the left one tonight and the right one tomorrow morning."

Gu Xiaoxi nodded. "Sure. Thank you for your help!"

While the masters were busy, Gu Xiaoxi managed his own small space.

The moment of harvest is when she feels the most fulfilled.

With the renewal of rice varieties, the output of the mini paddy fields has increased each time. It feels that it won’t be long before she can achieve her goal of having food to eat three times a day.

The next step was for her to find some wheat seeds and glutinous rice seeds.

After harvesting the rice, she harvested the vegetables and fruits and then planted new ones.

This time, she planted a lot of beans.

She did not put the harvested fruits and vegetables in the new product showroom, but stored them directly on the storage shelves in the small space.

During this time, she also observed that although the growth rate of plants and animals in the companion small space is very fast, once the plants leave the land, they can be kept fresh in the small space.

The same goes for other items. They remain the same when you take them out as they were when you put them in.

Looking at the ginseng she had planted before, it grew exceptionally well and fast in the small space.

It seems that she will never have to worry about having no hundred-year-old ginseng to use in the future.

After the masters completed the final finishing work, they said goodbye to Gu Xiaoxi and left.

When Gu Xiaoxi was about to close the door, Li Guifen shouted at her from a distance, "Sister Xiaoxi!"

Gu Xiaoxi stopped closing the door and waved at her.

Li Guifen ran closer and asked, "Xiaoxi sister, do you know what the emergency meeting was about?"

Gu Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, "I don't know! Sister-in-law, have you learned any news?"

Li Guifen shook her head. "I don't know much either. I just asked other people and they only knew that the troops had sent out several trucks. I don't know what happened."

"Today, we were cleaning the kitchen at home. When the assembly call sounded, Lu Jiansen was still eating! My brother didn't even get to eat a single bite. I hope they didn't encounter anything too dangerous." Gu Xiaoxi also sighed.

After hearing this, Li Guifen remembered to go and check on Gu Xiaoxi's kitchen.

After reading it, she praised, "Xiaoxi, your kitchen is so beautiful, so tidy that I don't dare to cook in it."

Gu Xiaoxi said with a smile: "It's because it's neat and clean that I feel comfortable looking at it. That's why I want to cook more! By the way, I went out and brought back some charcoal today. If you want some, I'll share a box between you and Sister Feng Xia."

As she spoke, she pointed to two large wooden boxes stacked in the corner of the kitchen.

Li Guifen took a look and nodded quickly, "Okay, I'll take it home now. I'll give you the money later."

"Don't worry, it will be the same if you give it tomorrow."

"It's just a short distance. I'll be there right away." Li Guifen was very strong and went back carrying a large box of charcoal.

Within fifteen minutes, she hurried back, gave Gu Xiaoxi the money according to the market price, and also gave her two industrial tickets.

Because Li Guifen had children at home, they left quickly after chatting for a while.

Gu Xiaoxi had nothing to do, so he took a bath and went to bed.

The next day, she got up at dawn.

As the chefs who were going to build the new kang had not arrived yet, she prepared a large bag of vegetables and rode her bike to the scrap yard.

Mr. Qi always gets up early. He was preparing breakfast at this moment. When he saw Gu Xiaoxi, he was surprised.

"Why are you here so early?"

Gu Xiaoxi unloaded the vegetables from the back of the bicycle and said with a smile, "I'm going to pickle some vegetables. I just happen to have a lot of vegetables at home, so I'll bring some over to you. I'd also like to ask you for your advice on how to pickle delicious vegetables."

Master Qi said with a smile: "You haven't had breakfast yet? I'm going to fry some pickled vegetables to go with the porridge. Let me tell you how to make the pickled vegetables salty and how to make them delicious. Let me tell you, there are also some particularities to pickling vegetables..."

"Hey!" Gu Xiaoxi immediately went into the house to wash his hands.

Master Qi taught Gu Xiaoxi how to stir-fry pickled mustard greens and shredded pork, and also taught her how to pickle delicious pickled vegetables.

Knowing that she likes to eat pickled radishes and pickled beans, I even demonstrated the method to her.
