"Boss, you messed up my hair!"
Bai Ying quickly protected her head. She raised her head angrily and glared at Chen Ao.
Shen Ao put his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky, pretending nothing had happened. "It's a nice day today."
Bai Ying snorted coldly and said with a wicked smile, "Boss, don't think you don't have to eat just because Zhao Dayong took all the oysters. We'll continue to pick them up tonight. In short, don't think you can escape a meal."
Shen Ao: “…”
He hates oysters.
——
The 34th Regiment stationed in the commune.
After Zhao Dayong brought the oysters back to the army, the soldiers in the kitchen squad got busy preparing them according to the recipe given by Bai Ying. They were ready on time in the evening of the same day, and the aroma of seafood filled the canteen inside and outside.
As soon as the soldiers finished their training, they took their lunch boxes and ran into the cafeteria to grab the food.
In order to ensure that the oysters are served to as many people as possible, the cafeteria had to limit the amount of oysters. Not only could each person only get one portion, but they were also limited to only getting oysters cooked in one way. If they wanted to eat oysters cooked in other ways, they had to come back tomorrow.
Even so, not every soldier got one.
Zhao Dayong and his soldiers were having a meal together. They hadn't taken many bites of the oysters they had caught when they were gone. They couldn't help but complain to Zhao Dayong, "Platoon leader, why did you only get such a small amount of oysters? It's not even enough for us brothers to fill our stomachs."
"That's right, Platoon Leader, can't you bring back some more? After I ate some last night, I felt much braver at night. My wife kept praising me for being so good."
"Hey! So, this thing is not only delicious but also aphrodisiac? Platoon leader, bring back some!"
…
Zhao Dayong was overwhelmed by this and waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "Don't worry, there will be one every day from now on. How can I treat my brothers badly?"
"That's more like it." The few people who had finished their meal then dispersed.
Yang Mingwu from the Sixth Company also ordered a portion of fried pork.
It smells good and tastes even better.
After finishing his meal, he seemed to have thought of something, and walked back to the window where he had just gotten his meal. He said to the soldier inside who was serving the meal, "Give me another serving of fried haojian."
The soldier said awkwardly, "Captain Yang... the oysters are limited. Each person gets one portion, otherwise the soldiers who come late won't be able to eat any."
Yang Mingwu didn't say anything, but just stubbornly handed the aluminum lunch box to the soldier.
The soldier looked around and made sure that no one was looking at him before taking the lunch box and filling another one for Yang Mingwu.
"Thank you."
Yang Mingwu put his lunch box in his pocket and left the canteen, but instead of returning to his family compound, he drove away from the army.
The soldier on duty was also puzzled by this and asked, "What is Captain Yang doing out at this time of night?"
"Captain Yang often goes out at night these days. Could it be that he has a mistress outside?"
"Sister Xiuli is such a good person. She even gave Captain Yang a big fat boy. Captain Yang can't do such a foolish thing..."
"That's enough!" the squad leader shouted, "Our superiors' affairs are not for us to discuss."
The young soldiers stopped talking and looked at each other, then began to communicate with their eyes.
The other side.
Yang Mingwu, who was being talked about by the soldiers, drove to an area of old houses in the commune. He went deep into one of the alleys and knocked on the wooden door of the yard at the end.
As soon as the door was knocked, it was quickly opened from the inside.
A pretty girl poked her head out. She was wearing a light green long-sleeved dress and had two shiny black ponytails hanging on both sides of her chest, which made her look more pure for no reason.
If Bai Ying were here, she would also be stunned for a while before recognizing Qiao Xiaoling.
Who would have thought that Qiao Xiaoling, who had always been so arrogant and domineering, would actually change her style? She even seemed to be imitating Bai Ying...
"Brother Yang, you're here!"
As soon as she saw Yang Mingwu, Qiao Xiaoling's eyes sparkled and her tone was full of surprise.
"Um."
Yang Mingwu walked into the courtyard and spoke to Qiao Xiaoling in a soft voice, "I'm sorry for making you live in the old house. The conditions here are not good and you have suffered."
"No," Qiao Xiaoling said with a sensible look, "I'm already very happy that Brother Yang can give me a place to stay!"
Hearing this, Yang Mingwu felt much more relieved.
The two entered the house.
Looking at the spotlessly clean house, Yang Mingwu felt even more pity for Qiao Xiaoling, who had a miserable life.
He took out the lunch box and put it on the table. "Haven't you had dinner yet? This is the meal I specially prepared for you from the army cafeteria. Eat it quickly. Don't starve."
"Thank you, Brother Yang!"
Qiao Xiaoling picked up a piece of fried hamster with chopsticks and put it in her mouth. Her eyes lit up instantly, "What kind of dish is this? It's so delicious!"
Yang Mingwu looked down at Qiao Xiaoling lovingly, "This is fried oysters, made with a kind of seafood called oysters."
"Seafood?" Qiao Xiaoling asked in confusion, "Where does our commune get seafood? If it's from somewhere else, it would probably go bad before it even gets here."
Yang Mingwu didn't think there was anything to keep secret. He told Qiao Xiaoling everything he knew. "The seafood is supplied by the Rising Sun Farm. They live by the sea, so they pick it up from the beach."
"Sunrise Farm..."
Qiao Xiaoling tried her best to hide her inner shock.
Isn't this the farm near their brigade? How did it get connected to the army?
Bai Ying had just married into the farm when the farm had established ties with the army. Considering that there were soldiers who came to pick up Bai Ying on her wedding day, Qiao Xiaoling had a bold guess in her mind.
This seafood issue is probably related to Bai Ying again!
To verify her suspicions, Qiao Xiaoling asked tentatively, "Brother Yang, do you know who at the Rising Sun Farm is responsible for supplying seafood to the troops?"
