Chapter 1221 The Human Relationships in the Family Compound
After watching for a while without catching any more fish, Company Commander Su laughed and said, "Looks like even good luck runs out eventually."
Fu Yancheng knew when to stop: "Alright, while it's still not too hot, let's quickly take the fish to the cafeteria and have them process it for us."
The three drove straight to the mess hall, and everyone was astonished when they saw the fish being unloaded from the car: "Where did all these fish come from?"
Company Commander Su said smugly, "We caught it, it couldn't have fallen from the sky."
Fu Yancheng asked everyone to help carry the fish into the mess hall: "Squad Leader Zhao, didn't I say before that I would be hosting a few tables in the canteen tomorrow? With these fish, we can add two dishes tomorrow, and the rest can be used to improve everyone's meals."
Upon hearing that the rest could be handled by themselves, the cooks were naturally overjoyed: "That's wonderful! I thank you on behalf of everyone. Don't worry, we'll definitely get the banquet ready for you tomorrow."
Fu Yancheng nodded: "I've already arranged for someone to buy the other ingredients, and they'll be delivered first thing tomorrow morning."
After explaining everything, they started to walk back.
After entering the courtyard, Chu Xue pointed to the ground in the backyard: "Yan Cheng, when you get back, turn over the ground in the back and find some seedlings to plant in a few days. You can pick them whenever you want to eat them."
Fu Yancheng brought over a basin of water: "Okay, I'll listen to my wife. I'll turn the soil over this afternoon. I'll also tell Sister Tao later. She's grown a lot of vegetable seedlings herself. If there are any left, I'll ask her to save some for us."
He brought over a towel: "You can wash yourself off. I'll go to the cafeteria to get food and then check with the supply point to see if they have any eggs. If they do, I'll make dumplings for you tonight."
Before Fu Yancheng could even head to the cafeteria, Mo Ruhua from next door ran over: "Chuxue, don't cook lunch. I made minced meat noodles. Try my cooking."
Since they had already prepared everything, they couldn't very well refuse. Chu Xue smiled and said, "Alright, then let's try your cooking today. You go back first, and we'll pack up and head over in a bit."
After washing herself in the first snow, she changed her clothes and pointed to the fish they had specially left behind: "Take this fish with you too. It's better not to come empty-handed."
Fu Yancheng had no objection: "Okay, take the fish over to them. If you want to eat it, I'll go back and go catch some more."
Chu Xue remained silent, thinking to herself: You think fish are really that easy to catch? If it weren't for my bait, it's uncertain whether we'd have any catch at all today.
Mo Ruhua's noodles with minced meat sauce were really good, and everyone enjoyed the meal. "Ruhua, we're going to make dumplings tonight. You two should come over tonight."
Mo Ruhua wasn't one to mince words: "Okay, then I'll go over early this afternoon to help you."
I was thinking that it wouldn't be easy to buy meat in the afternoon, so I would buy some eggs and go to Sister Tao's house to cut some chives to make chive and egg filling.
When Fu Yancheng went over, he saw a large piece of meat on the cutting board. After asking, he learned that it had been reserved by someone, but for some reason, no one came to pick it up.
It's too hot, the meat won't keep, and since the pickup time has passed, they won't wait any longer.
Just as they took it out, Fu Yancheng came over. Thinking that his wife was pregnant, he remembered to buy eggs in addition to meat, so he could make two kinds of fillings to prevent her from being picky about food because of her pregnancy.
When he got home, Sister Tao came over to deliver some chives: "I planted a lot in my backyard. If it's not enough, you can go and cut more. Anyway, these things grow really fast."
When Chu Xue saw that Fu Yancheng had not only bought eggs but also meat, she immediately called out to Sister Tao, "Sister-in-law, let's have dinner here. It's lively here, and you can also tell me about the situation in the family compound, so I won't be completely clueless."
