Time quickly arrived and the day of the military wives selection event arrived.
After arriving at the scene, Bai Ying discovered that among the contestants, in addition to the familiar Qiao Xiaoling, there was also her senior brother Wen Shuyu.
"Brother, are you here to watch the fun?"
Bai Ying leaned over and asked in an uncertain tone.
Wen Shuyu smiled politely, "I'm here to participate in this selection just like you guys. Don't forget that I'm also a soldier's family member."
Bai Ying: “…”
That being said, it was a little hard for Senior Brother Wen, a man, to participate in the selection of military wives.
"snort!"
Qiao Xiaoling snorted coldly from the side, "Bai Ying, do you dare to make a bet with me? Let's bet on who will be selected in this event?"
Bai Ying looked in the direction of the sound.
Qiao Xiaoling was standing not far away, two body lengths away from her, with her arms folded and a very confident look on her face, as if she had already come out of the shadow of the fake pregnancy incident two days ago.
Bai Ying tried hard not to laugh out loud.
She really didn't know where Qiao Xiaoling got the confidence to compare with her?
A few days ago, Qiao Xiaoling's fake pregnancy was exposed, and her life can be said to have fallen from heaven to hell. Yang Mingwu no longer indulged Qiao Xiaoling and ordered her to learn how to cook and do housework from Yang's mother.
Although Qiao Xiaoling was not willing to do it, she probably knew that she had been mischievous too much and was afraid that Yang Mingwu would divorce her again, so she had to reluctantly follow Yang's mother and learn from her.
Yang's mother suddenly turned from a serf into a master, bossing Qiao Xiaoling around all day long...
It was rare for Qiao Xiaoling to calm down and actually learn how to cook from Yang's mother.
Bai Ying, a neighbor, happened to see this again when she returned home last night. The door to Qiao Xiaoling's yard was not closed at that time, so Bai Ying subconsciously took a look inside and saw Qiao Xiaoling's face was so black from being smoked by the stove that it looked like it had been dug out from a pile of coal.
Bai Ying was so scared at that time that she thought she saw a ghost!
Judging from Qiao Xiaoling's character, Bai Ying would be crazy to believe that Qiao Xiaoling could learn to cook in two days, let alone participate in the competition. It is simply overestimating her abilities.
Now she has to compete with someone who owned a restaurant in her past life... Bai Ying really admires Qiao Xiaoling's determination to humiliate herself.
"No gambling."
Bai Ying raised an eyebrow and decisively refused, "I'm afraid that defeating a beginner like you would be unfair."
"Stop looking down on others!"
Qiao Xiaoling was so angry that she clenched her fists and her face turned red.
She could tolerate losing to Bai Ying, but she could not tolerate the fact that Bai Ying did not even consider her as an opponent!
Bai Ying looked surprised. "Ah, you know I look down on you? Is it that obvious?"
Qiao Xiaoling: “…”
After staring at Bai Ying for a while, Qiao Xiaoling finally looked away. "Just wait, I'm going to beat you today and take first place!"
Bai Ying clapped her hands and said, "Okay, okay, you're ambitious. I'll be waiting to see you make a fool of yourself."
Qiao Xiaoling glared at Bai Ying fiercely and said nothing more.
Soon, after all the contestants arrived, Yuan Xuemei, the wife of the regiment commander, began to announce the rules of the military wives selection activity.
The selection method is not complicated. It is just a test to see who can make dumplings quickly and well. The dumplings made by the military wives will be cooked and fed to the soldiers, just for fun.
The ingredients were all provided by the army. The meat was freshly slaughtered pigs sent from the farm, and the vegetables were seasonal vegetables, such as leeks, celery, and kidney beans. In addition, there were eggs, dried shrimps and other ingredients.
It can be said to be quite rich and there is a lot of room for development.
Of course, in addition to preparing the filling yourself, you also have to knead the dough yourself.
After Yuan Xuemei finished explaining the rules of the activity, everyone began to scramble for the materials they needed.
There is no shortage of noodles.
What everyone mainly fights for is half a pig, and you can cut the meat into the part you want.
The wives of the soldiers cut the meat into pieces that were 70% fat and 30% lean. The fattier pork belly and front elbow meat were quickly cut away.
After a little thought, Bai Ying chose to cook lean meat that was more to her liking. The leanest meat was the tenderloin.
Being too fat is not her style.
After working hard, you have to eat something yourself, and Shen Ao doesn't like eating fatty meat.
After Bai Ying finished cutting the meat, when she went to get the rest of the side dishes, she found that the relatively scarce green beans and celery were gone, leaving only two handfuls of picked leeks, both of which were a little wilted.
She and Wen Shuyu each took a handful of leeks, and both of them got a handful of leeks.
In addition, there were two mackerel left next to it. No one else knew what Yuan Xuemei was thinking. She was supposed to make dumplings, so why put fish next to it? It wasn't like she was going to roast fish.
It smells so fishy and it's really stinking.
Bai Ying's eyes lit up.
Got it!
She knows what filling to use!
He took the two mackerels and returned to his seat.
Qiao Xiaoling, who was kneading dough nearby, saw this and sneered, "The Bai family always says you can cook, but I think you're just a name for nothing! The meat you cut is all lean, and you even used two stinky fish. How can you make a good filling?"
Bai Ying was not annoyed, but just watched Qiao Xiaoling's actions with a smile.
"I haven't even mixed the filling yet, and you're already saying bad things about me. Whether I'm good or not is another matter, but your dough-mixing skills are really not that good."
Isn’t it?
Qiao Xiaoling had never done any housework in the Bai family's old house before, so how could she cook?
Even if Yang's mother had received two days of emergency training, she would not have taken the precious white flour to harm her.
Therefore, Qiao Xiaoling learned how to knead dough from the military wives who were competing nearby.
